If you are stuck and don’t know how to get the heart of the various heroines in Sword Art Online: Hollow Fragment, this strategy guide will walk you through the steps. This dating sim strategy works for all the heroine ladies in the game.

Step 1: Increase the heroine’s mood to level 5 (In Love)
Be in a party and take the ladies to any of the dating spots and just wait. You want to wait for the yellow bubble where the girls want to talk to you. Enter the conversation or chat immediately.

Central Plaza – Fountain(Hold hands with heroine)
Central Plaza – Cafe(Day, get a table for two)
Central Plaza – Benches near Fountain(Sit down with heroine)
Central Plaza – Statue just outside Egil’s Shop

Step 2: Go to the Inn (Agil’s Shop), do not enter your room yet. Make sure no one is around the inn nearby. Perform “Bridal Carry” on the heroine.

(Mood changes into level 6, “Infatuation”) and proceed to your room while it is active. If you perform the Bridal Carry while there are people around, the mood level will reset to rank 1. The best timing to perform bridal carry is at dawn or night, because there are less chances of other people around.

Step 3: Once you get to your room, the heroine’s mood will automatically go to level 7 (“Lost”).

Approach your bed and the heroine will suggest to lie down on the bed, triggering a chat event.

Step 4: Fill up the pink “Enjoy” bar on the chat event

The bedroom scene will occur to unlock the CG.

Note: Other laides: Make sure that you help them with their quests to raise the mood from rank 0 to 1. Add her into your party to raise the rank to 2. Then you can use this strategy laid out in this guide.
