KYOTO XANADU — Kyoto City Exploration Guide

Alternate Modern Kyoto

In KYOTO XANADU's setting, Kyoto serves as Japan's capital — a bustling modern city layered atop Xanadu's supernatural threat. After school, characters explore streets for bonding events, side quests, and essential services like cursed armor purification at Kijaku Tenjinguu on Shijo Street. City exploration competes with labyrinth time; prioritize events with deadline icons on your schedule.

Kijaku Tenjinguu Shrine

Bring cursed armor from Xanadu to Kijaku Tenjinguu for purification using Dispel Talismans sold on-site. Purified armor becomes equippable gear with unique properties — often best-in-slot for mid-chapter slots. Stock talismans before long dives when drop rates spike on target floors.

Shopping & Dining

Shopping districts sell consumables, class materials, and cosmetic items. Gourmet spots trigger optional scenes raising bond points. Dinner invitations with classmates advance Tankasho chains. Check rotating stock after main story milestones — rare Support Card components appear briefly.

Event Triggers

Tankasho and Kien Kobanashi markers appear as subtle icons on the city map during walkable hours. Interact at exact locations; missing a window may delay scenes by one in-game day. Some events require prior Facility Request completion or minimum bond thresholds.
