The Witch and the Hundred Knight

Something of a departure for developer Nippon Ichi Software, in that it’s an action RPG that eschews the developer’s usual zany comedy in favour of traditional tragedy. Noteworthy for featuring one of the most loathsome but nonetheless fascinating protagonists in all of gaming.

Tips and Tricks

Normal Ending
At the beginning of Chapter 11 Part 2, when Mani asks you if you want to save Metallia, choose the “Deny” response three times.

True Ending
At the beginning of Chpater 11 Part 2, when Mani asks you if you want to save Metallia, choose the “Affirm” response and continue to the end of the chapter.

Bad Ending
This is actually the real “true” ending of the game, so it takes a bit more effort.

In Chapter 11 Part 2, before you fight the boss, head to Cicite: Reverse, Ruins: Catacombs and Ominous Cave and defeat the Dark Witch optional boss in each location. After this, return to the Forth Four Pillar and finish the Chapter as normal. You will then have two additional Chapters to play through.
