How do you feel about bad endings in SoH? A "Bad End" is like a Game Over screen, with a few paragraphs detailing the fate of the main character. The only real "Bad End"s in SoH (so far) were back in Book 1, where (if your attunement was really low) you'd give into your greed or lust for battle.

Speaking of words that start with 'F', Chapter 6 has a sex scene in it. This scene is entirely optional. Chapter 6 also brings us to the Catalyst of the story, which—while not quite as enticing as Junko/Jun—is going to be what propels our protagon...
