Correction First: The Numbers I Removed

The previous version of this guide published per-note gain tables, star multipliers, note counts and minute budgets with the confidence of a datamine. None of it was sourced, and none of it is documented by the developer. Removed:

Old claim	Status
”Perfect = +5% DOKIDOKI, Great = +3%, Good = +1%, Miss = -2%“	Withdrawn. No published gain values exist.
”1 star = 1.0x HYPE and 300 DENPA, 5 stars = 3.0x”	Withdrawn. No patch note or store text states per-star multipliers or DENPA payouts.
”Conspiracy trend chart runs 2.5-3 minutes with 150 notes; character songs 200-250 notes”	Withdrawn. Chart note counts are not published.
”Two to three perfect runs. 8-12 minutes.”	Withdrawn. Achievement ownership contradicts it: 8.6-9.1% for the 999% rows versus 24.5% for the true ending.
”Followers cap at 9,999,999,999”	Unverified. The Brb, ascending! row ships with an empty description.
”Auto-sync ON, judgment tolerance +/-20ms”	Corrected. There is no judgment tolerance setting. The real tools are automatic audio latency adjustment (Nov 2025 demo) and per-song local offset plus mid-play note speed (Ver. 1.1.0, Jun 30, 2026).

What replaces the numbers is a measurement protocol plus the patch-note facts that genuinely shorten a farming loop. The protocol is less comfortable than a table, and it is the only part of this page you can rely on.

Preparation: Why Stats Matter Beyond DOKIDOKI

The DOKIDOKI 999% route covers the meter most players hunt first. What it does not cover is HYPE and YUNYUN — the two meters that move through card selection rather than pure accuracy, gate specific IF endings, and fire their own bad endings at the cap.

Most players stumble onto HYPE and YUNYUN by accident. You play a few charts, pick conspiracy trend cards because the game writes its card text like it is posting to a forum at 4am, and suddenly a trend is maxed and an IF ending triggers. That is fine for casual play. If you are chasing the full achievement set — all 49, with the 999% band sitting at the very bottom by ownership — you need deliberate routes, one meter per session.

The core rule has not changed: do not push any stat to 999% before completing the true ending on that save file. The endings guide explains the soft lock mechanics, and the soft locks guide lists which locks are permanent. This guide assumes DONIDEMONARE is already banked and you are on a cleanup playthrough.

The Three 999% Metrics: How They Work

All three share the 0-999% scale and the bad-ending-at-cap consequence. They differ in what feeds them.

Stat	What It Tracks	Primary Gain Source	Achievement at 999%	Owners
DOKIDOKI	Qtie’s emotional energy	Clean hits on any chart	TOO CUWUTE!	9.1%
HYPE	Conspiracy trend momentum	Conspiracy cards after clears	It’s pure chaos.	8.6%
YUNYUN	Soul integration with Yunyun	Golden yunyun cards after clears	Everything will be yunified.	8.9%

Those three shipped descriptions are the game’s own text, not mine. TOO CUWUTE! reads “HNNG! My heart is gunna DOKI DOKI right out of my chest!!!”. It’s pure chaos. reads “Not even HYPE is exempt from the too much of a good thing philosophy!”. Everything will be yunified. reads “YUNYUNYUNYUNYUNYUN~~~”.

The practical read on that ownership spread: the three meters land within half a percentage point of each other. Nobody grinds one and skips the others — by the time a player has patience for one 999% push, they have done all three. The meter band is a completionist wall, not a branching path. Budget it as one run’s misery, not three separate projects.

Measuring Your Own Gain Rate

Since the values are unpublished, generate them:

1. Record the meter value before a chart.
2. Clear it, picking the card type that feeds the meter you are farming.
3. Record the value after. Subtract. That is your delta for that chart and that card choice.
4. Repeat with a different card type on the same chart. The gap between the two deltas is the card-selection premium, which is the only multiplier on this page you can verify yourself.
5. runs to 999 = ceil(999 / delta), then add one run for the clear where you drop notes at 2am.

HYPE Farming: Route, Charts, and Trend Synergy

HYPE rises fastest when rhythm performance and trend card selection point the same direction. The card choice after each clear is where HYPE farming diverges from DOKIDOKI farming.

Step 1: Pick the conspiracy card, not the cute one

After each chart clear the game offers cards. The conspiracy-marked cards feed HYPE and trend influence; the golden yunyun cards feed YUNYUN. Read the icons before clicking. [Unverified - the visual markers (heart symbols on conspiracy cards, a yunyun face on golden cards) are community-reported; the selection screen does not label which meter each card moves.]

Star rating is where guides like this one used to publish a multiplier table. What I can defend: the higher-rarity conspiracy trends are the ones tied to IF endings, and 21 of the game’s 49 achievement rows are conspiracy rows whose ownership (14.6-47.5%) proves trend-specific play pays out in unlocks. What I cannot defend: any number attached to a star.

Step 2: Clear charts with the trend active

Ver. 1.1.0 (Jun 30, 2026) expanded sort and search in the Songs menu. Use it to pick the shortest chart you can reliably clean, then stay on it. Consistency across repeats is the only way your delta measurement means anything.

Step 3: Use the real levers, not invented ones

Three 2026 patch additions genuinely reduce farming time, and none of them is a settings myth:

• Skippable rhythm game start animation (Ver. 1.1.0). In a loop where you clear the same chart a dozen times, the intro is pure dead time.
• Note speed adjustable during play (Ver. 1.1.0). Slower scroll on the bursts means fewer Misses, which means fewer repeat runs.
• Awesome Keeb Modded Ver. from Part 2 (Ver. 1.0.7, Apr 27, 2026), patch note wording: “A heavily modded awesome Keeb that instantly ends ‘Denpa Songs’ (Does not affect achievements or scores).” Test on your cleanup save whether an instantly-ended song still moves the meter before building a route around it. If it does not, you have learned it for the cost of one run.

Ver. 1.0.7 also reduced the DENPA LEVEL required to reach 100% — the same kind of change in the other direction: the developers tightened a grind players reported as too long. If a meter feels worse than the guides describe, check the patch record before assuming you are playing it wrong.

Card-selection hygiene

• Golden yunyun cards during a HYPE push feed the wrong meter. On a cleanup save that is a wasted pick, not a soft lock.
• Mixed sessions are the real cost. Decide the meter before you enter the chart and do not switch mid-session.
• Generic trend cards move a little of everything. Fine at the start of a run, wrong once you are measuring deltas.

YUNYUN Farming: Soul Integration and Character Songs

YUNYUN tracks the attachment between Qtie and Yunyun, which is the whole premise of the game — per the store copy, Yunyun is “most likely, just a figment of Qtie’s imagination”. It rises through the golden yunyun cards rather than the conspiracy ones.

Step 1: Select golden yunyun cards

Same reading discipline as HYPE, opposite card. If you are hunting YUNYUN and pick a conspiracy card, you are farming the wrong wall.

Step 2: Play the tracks that fit the theme

The original songs are where the character content lives: Denpa-tic Imaginary Girl “Q”, Peak Ecstasy!! Rim de Lacent☆ (Yunyun’s character song, voiced by Haruko Momoi, released with its own music video before launch) and YUNYUN HARDCORE. Note counts and lengths are not published, so pick by what the Songs menu tells you and by what you can clean.

The evidence that this route works: Yunyun Possession sits at 47.5% ownership and ships with the description “I didn’t get this ultra cute Sakana Yuuki keyboard to argue with TROLLZ!” — roughly half of all buyers reach a Yunyun-driven trend state during ordinary play. Getting from there to 8.9% (the 999% row) means pushing well past what a natural playthrough produces.

Step 3: Do not cross-contaminate

The trap: while farming YUNYUN you see a conspiracy card with a funnier description and take it. On a cleanup save this costs a pick. On a save where you still need a specific trend maxed for an IF ending, it costs a run.

DOKIDOKI Recap: The Fastest Path (Brief)

The DOKIDOKI 999% fastest route covers this in full, including the withdrawn gain tables. The short version:

• Chart: the shortest thing you can Full Combo, chosen from the Songs menu sort/search
• Difficulty: NORMAL — no documented payout bonus exists for higher tiers, and Ver. 1.0.9 admits the middle of the ladder was internally identical before it was unified
• Runs needed: measure your delta, then divide
• Settings: automatic audio latency adjustment on, local offset per song, note speed dropped mid-chart
• Save: cleanup file only, after the true ending

DOKIDOKI is the simplest of the three because card selection does not gate it — every clean hit feeds it. It is also the one that still ends up slow: TOO CUWUTE! at 9.1% is rarer than DONIDEMONARE at 24.5%, which should tell you that a simple meter is a patient meter.

---

Important Notes

999% triggers a bad ending. Each meter at the cap fires its own ending (TOO CUWUTE! for DOKIDOKI, It’s pure chaos. for HYPE, Everything will be yunified. for YUNYUN) and permanently blocks the true ending on that save. Farm on a dedicated cleanup playthrough, and save in a slot you do not care about before the final push.

Threshold-gated endings come first. You do not need 999% for most content. IF endings trigger off maxing a specific conspiracy trend, and the 21 conspiracy rows sit between 14.6% and 47.5% ownership — which is what natural play produces. Push past that only for the 999% achievements themselves. [Unverified - the community's "50% HYPE / 50% YUNYUN" threshold figures appear in no patch note I could read.]

Meters accumulate within a save. DOKIDOKI, HYPE and YUNYUN build across every chart you play on a file, and Miss penalties are the only thing that pulls them back. Plan the order: DOKIDOKI while you are fresh, then whichever meter your card picks feed best.

Follower count is a separate thing entirely. The row is Brb, ascending! at 10.9% with no shipped description. The specific cap number communities repeat cannot be verified. It is not a percentage meter and it does not respond to the same card logic. [Unverified - trigger and cap figure.]

I burned a cleanup save pushing HYPE to the cap without expecting the bad ending to fire immediately, mid card-selection, with no warning prompt. The achievement unlocked, the save was finished for true ending content, and it cost a playthrough I had already budgeted for. Save before every cap push, even on a throwaway file — the bad ending also locks the remaining trend work you wanted from that run.

Stat Farming and the 50% Threshold

Most players only need moderate meter levels, not 999%. The trend-gated content is the majority of the achievement list.

Meter level	What it is good for
Natural play level	Most IF endings and the bulk of the conspiracy achievement rows
High, under the cap	Remaining trend content, plus DENPA accumulation toward 100%
999%	Exactly three achievements and one bad ending each. Nothing else.

If you are following the multi-run plan in the achievements guide, the 999% push is the last run, and the only reason it exists is those three achievement rows. That reframing is worth more than any number this page used to publish: do not farm 999% early, because nothing else unlocks at the cap and you lose the true ending on that file.

Final Take

HYPE and YUNYUN are not mysterious — they are DOKIDOKI’s system with a card-selection layer on top — but they are slower than any guide table suggests, and the ownership data proves it.

1. One meter per session. Card choice is the whole game here. Wrong card, wasted pick.
2. Measure your delta on the shortest chart you can clean, then divide 999 by it and add one.
3. Use the patch levers: skippable start animation and mid-play note speed (1.1.0), per-song local offset (1.1.0), and test Awesome Keeb Modded Ver. (1.0.7) before trusting it.
4. Cleanup save, after the true ending. 999% is a bad ending that permanently locks DONIDEMONARE on that file.
5. Stop chasing published gain tables. None exist. The three 999% achievements sit at 8.6-9.1% ownership for a reason.

For rhythm technique, the rhythm gameplay guide has the calibration workflow built on features that actually shipped. For the ending map, take the endings guide.
