Next is the Gravure Photo Studio in Yakuza Kiwami 2. This one is mostly about reading the whole sentence before you start pressing buttons. Getting the first fragment right doesn’t help if the next two turn it into something that makes no sense.
I want to put both models and every session together here, because mixing up the two Regular Clothes sessions is an easy way to follow a perfectly good answer for the wrong question.
There are six sessions for Hikaru and six for Rina, so you need twelve clears altogether. Finish both sets and watch each model's final reward video. You don't need to unlock every clip in Memories.
**Getting into the studio**
Head to Fascinant Jardin on Park Boulevard in Kamurocho, just north of Kanrai. The studio is upstairs on the second floor. You can get the introduction in Chapter 1 after receiving the objective to collect Daigo from Club Shine. Approach the employee outside and he'll take you in.
The studio is unavailable while Haruka is following you. Come back on your own.

**What the Completion List actually asks for**
- Do a photo shoot with Hikaru Aoyama
- Do a photo shoot with Rina Hashimoto
- Earn Hikaru Aoyama's reward
- Earn Rina Hashimoto's reward
The first two cover playing with each model. For the reward entries, keep clearing that model's sessions in order until you finish her sixth session and see the reward video.
[Completion List](https://neoseeker.com/yakuza-kiwami-2/walkthrough/CompletionList)
**Money and session unlocks**
Each model's sessions cost ¥3,000, ¥3,000, ¥6,000, ¥6,000, ¥10,000 and ¥10,000, in that order. That's ¥38,000 per model, or ¥76,000 for one paid run through both lists. Bring extra if you expect retries. The street introduction is free; the figures here are the total listed session prices.
You unlock the next outfit by clearing the current session. Paying for an attempt doesn't unlock the next one by itself.
[Session prices](https://yakuza.fandom.com/wiki/Gravure_Photoshoot)
**How to clear a session**
You get seven questions. For each one, choose three sentence fragments before the timer runs out. A coherent sentence raises the heart gauge. Fill it by the end to clear the session; a broken sentence or timeout gives you no increase for that answer.
Every opening fragment can lead to a valid sentence. Pick one, then make sure the next two choices finish it properly. Some answers give a bigger increase, marked with a star below.
If you need time to read, open the pause/interruption menu. That stops the timer. The on-screen reset/back control also lets you undo a fragment selection, so check your own button prompts rather than borrowing another platform's controls.

**Reading the answer routes**
Each answer below gives the meaning of the sentence to assemble, followed by its three choice positions:
1 = top
2 = middle
3 = bottom
For example, 3-2-2 means choose the bottom option from the first vertical list, then the middle option from the next list, then the middle option from the final list.
The three horizontal boxes above the choices show the sentence you're building. Don't use their left/middle/right positions for these routes.
The numbered routes come from the original Japanese session solution tables. The vertical layout and matching choice positions were cross-checked against English footage of Rina's Regular Clothes 1 session. That cross-check does not cover every English session or 2025 build. If your displayed choices differ, follow the sentence meaning instead of forcing the number sequence. These aren't universal controller-button instructions.

**Finishing both reward entries**
Hikaru's final session is Bikini. Rina's is Bikini 2. Clear each one and watch its reward video, then check that both reward entries are marked complete. These are the final videos attached to the sixth sessions.
Memories can still contain locked clips after that. It includes alternate reactions and failure scenes, so an incomplete gallery doesn't mean you've failed the Completion List requirement. Hikaru's Cheerleader session even has two stronger responses to its first question, which you can't choose in the same run. There's no need to replay everything just to fill those boxes.

**If another answer guide doesn't match**
Check the model, outfit and question number first. Rina and Hikaru both have two Regular Clothes sessions, and Rina also has two separate Bikini sessions.
One widely shared Steam guide has copied the wrong answers into Rina's Regular Clothes 1 section. Question 5 should include asking her to explain the extra service. Question 6 includes the explanation about men's attraction to breasts. Don't keep retrying duplicated answers from another question.

Some English lines are loose adaptations of the Japanese. Use the intended meanings above if a literal translation sends you looking for words that are not on screen.

Once all four photo-studio entries are checked, you're done with its Completion List requirements. If you want to see the alternate reactions, go back for them. If you're here to finish the game, don't let an unfilled Memories box convince you that twelve successful sessions somehow weren't enough.
Next is the Gravure Photo Studio in Yakuza Kiwami 2. This one is mostly about reading the whole sentence before you start pressing buttons. Getting the first fragment right does…
