RIVAL RACER | Let's Plat Like A Dragon Gaiden - The Man Who Erased His Name (Extra) - Part 7
For now we have the requests and Stroll n' Patrol missions complete without looking for everything around Sotenbori. We should be able to finish the minigames in Sotenbori in the next stream assuming luck is on our side. After that we can focus on the Activity Log for the time being.
Trophy/Achievement Timestamps
1:33:04 - Pocket Circuit Pro Trophy/Achievement - One of the many minigames you can play while you are in Sotenbori is Pocket Circuit which is introduced in Chapter 2 as part of the story. Here you can purchase parts to customise your car along with participating in a variety of races and time attacks across the different tracks as well as Rival races you unlock later on. While inside CourStar there is someone blocking a set of double doors. This is where the Masters Circuit takes place and you unlock it by completing all the races up to and including the CourStar race. There is no set build to get through every race consistently due to either the cost limiting the parts you can use or the different obstacles you face along the way making faster builds not as optimal. Some parts are used in multiple combinations throughout a lot of races. To unlock more parts you either need to win enough races to unlock parts in the shop or by finding them across Sotenbori, in lockers or by earning points in minigames to purchase them. You can purchase parts from the shop by speaking to the manager and using PP from winning races and time attacks or by defeating Rivals. As you win more races more parts become available. The parts start out cheap however you may need to do Rival races to accrue more points due to the later parts being more expensive than the rewards for completing races. You also receive new parts from general progression through the races however these are not required parts and can be added to the build when needed. Most races you need to take into account obstacles on the path or how fast the other cars are going. What may work in a Rival race won't always work in the races as sometimes the other cars are naturally faster than you. Typically you can use the same or similar build from the Rival races in the normal ones with slight adjustments although some will vary due to the Rival races sometimes having slower cars. In addition you are competing against multiple cars which means you can be lapped or removed from the race if you aren't careful however this also work in your favour. The following is a guide for the different part builds you can use to complete each race:

When you have unlocked the Masters Circuit in Pocket Circuit you will unlock this trophy/achievement.
4:59:09 - Heavenly VIP Trophy/Achievement - During your introduction to Requests for the Akame Network in Chapter 2 as part of the story you are required to visit Club Heavenly which is a Hostess Club. Each trip costs 10,000 yen and upon doing so you begin a series of topic conversations you need to give the correct response to fill up the gauge until it goes past the small line for a heart. The general strategy for these stays the same for each Hostess. You need to ensure you answer the intro question correctly. When it comes to choosing a drink each hostess has multiple choices that increase by different amounts however choosing the cheapest drink they like is the most effective. For the topic cards any of them can be selected just so long as you do the correct response. After the topics If you still haven't reached the line you can give a present however this isn't necessary if you are using the Mini-More Perfume that you can purchase from Ebisu Pawn in Sotenbori. Keep in mind you need to go over the line for it to count as a level up however it does not need to be maxed out. When you go over the line you will be asked another question to level up and obtain the heart ending the segment. Continue doing this for each heart and once you obtain all 3 hearts you go on a date with them with some scenes. This is considered completing the mission for that Hostess and you do not need to see the different dialogue options for each topic card. The following is a series of guides that provide all the correct responses for each topic as well as what drinks to give each Hostess:
