Aiba will give you quite a few hints for this part, so please, ask him for advice and do your best to solve this on your own before using this walkthrough.

Chapter 8: 

After you return to the old building, there’s only one path. There are still some riddles and gameovers you can get here, but if you just try a little bit to figure them out, you’ll be able to move forward.

I’d like you to get through this chapter with your own effort.

You can reference these videos for help beating each boss. They have spoilers, so I’d like you to try at least once on your own if you can. But if you really can’t do it no matter how hard you try, please feel free to look at them.

This game has many ways to get a game over, and many different routes. But there’s only one ending. What it will be is up to your efforts.

Will you accept the love of God?

Regarding the Kanou flag: 

Do everything you can on your own once Kanou leaves you alone when you enter B2F

Specifically, don’t join back up with him until you have the upper part of the Researcher’s Note and the Researcher’s Journal.

After you join back up with him, choose to stay silent in the conversation that comes up next, and you’ll live and be able to proceed with the story.

When you can walk around on your own in CH5, talk to Kanou (his dialogue changes whether you’ve activated the flag or not)

If you’re on B route or above in ch6, get the reference room key from Karen.

Examine the yellow book in the very bottom of the reference room, and you’ll reunite (?) with Kanou.

If you proceed through ch7, you’ll confront Kanou before the Enomoto fight.

What exactly happens when you do differs greatly depending if you’re on the B route or A route or above.

When you get to ch8 (if you have the A route or above flag) talk to Kurachi when you can move around freely, and accept the item from him. Whether you accept what it says is up to you, though.

Even if you don’t accept what it says, that curse will probably help Atou in the fights in ch8. The hidden effect it gives differs based on whether you’re on the A or S route.
