Navigate Ginza, discover Rag's store, unlock Sacrifice fusions at Jakyo Manor, and find Mama at the Madam Bar in this Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster walkthrough.

Upon exiting the Amara network into Ginza, Hijiri will tell you to look for Hikawa via the terminal. He is going to search for Hikawa via studying the terminals as he is too weak to be running around outside with all the demons. He tells you the two of you will meet again.

Ginza is sort of like an underground plaza. Lots of Nihilo demons (mostly Datenshi) are running around here. There's talk about the human leader of the Nihilo and another human woman that's a "medium." The two of them apparently run the place, and Nihilo in general. It seems that they're draining Magatsuhi from the Amara Network. Exactly why it's unclear, though it seems that it is part of their plan to rebuild the world.

In the north area of Ginza is a "mall." First and foremost is Rag's place. This is Rag's only store in the game, so you'll probably be coming back here a lot. You can exchange gems for items, Seirei, and Mitama here. Also be sure to check out the Jakyo manor. Once you enter, Sacrifice fusions will become unlocked--from here on out you can do Sacrifice fusions at the Manor whenever the moon is full.

Check out the "Madam Bar." It's run by "Mama," a Nyx who probably not coincidentally looks exactly like the character "Madam" from SMT2. She asks if you're here because you're interested in Nihilo, and asks if you're interested in the "human medium." Tell her you are and she tells you to go to the Nihilo HQ "if you're a man." If the medium disses you, Mama tells you to come back and ask for her advice. There's a back room of the bar, but Loki won't let you in--his "stash" is in there.

However, there's another entrance to his stash. Leave Ginza to the overworld map and go through north entrance back into Ginza. Presto! A back door. Of course, there's a Troll guarding it, so you can't get in--at least not now.

Head to the Nihilo HQ--it's right to the south of Ginza. Berith is guarding the entrance, and won't let you through. Go back to and talk to Mama. Mama didn't think you would actually go into Nihilo and asks if there's some reason you need to get in there,. When you say there is, tells you to meet Gozu-Tenno. Gozu-Tenno is the boss demon of Ikebukuro, and an enemy of Nihilo. Mama says that he might know how to get past the guards of the Nihilo HQ.

With the new structure of Tokyo, getting to Ikebukuro isn't as trivial as it used to be. You'll have to go through the Great Ginza Underpass to get there. The entrance to the underpass is in the Harumi Warehouse, east of Ginza. Cross the first bridge east of Ginza, then head south to Harumi Warehouse.
