So I just reached level 5 confidant rank with her and when I look at guides it says I have to be on the path to the true ending to go further.

When I reached rank 5, my game said it was maxed out. Does that mean I’m not on the true ending path already?

I remember in p4g there were some very specific things you had to do to get the true ending, so I’m assuming I won’t be able to do the true ending.

(It’s my 1st play through so I’d rather just go forward and not get the true ending without spoiling anything instead of getting spoilers and doing the true ending, so I’m mainly just wondering if this is as far as I can get with Sumi on this playthrough.)
