In Honkai: Star Rail, Chasing the Tail Monkeys is a mission to continue mastering and part of the “Banana Mayhem: Battles Without Ninja and Mercy” chain, where you have to enter memories Rappa and investigate the crimes of Osaru. To do this, you will have to perform three asceticisms and fight many enemies. If you have difficulties with receiving and completing the quest, then study our guide.
Walkthrough of the quest “Chasing the Tail of the Monkeys”
How to start the quest
It starts automatically immediately after completing the previous mission of the line called “Dead Banana Society”. Open the journal, find the corresponding task and start tracking it. If the quest does not appear, try moving to another location or logging out of your account and re-logging in after 20-30 minutes.
How to Enter Rappa's Memories
Note: Before entering Rappa's memories, you can try to leave the room by going to the door, but you will be immediately stopped by Dan Heng and Reka. You can still leave or stay. If you choose the second option, you will return to the room. If you decide to go, you will be shown a video clip with bananas, and then you will turn into a monkey, and the quest will start over again.
Approach Rappa and interact with her to select the Hour Ninjutsu, launch the Emote Dial, and enter the Emote Environment. After that, you will find yourself in the girl's memories.
How to Investigate Osaru's Crimes and Find Master Kocha
Once in the lab, you can complete an optional objective by examining the capsule with the unfamiliar girl with blue hair. Then go upstairs and talk to the scientist. He will tell you that you will need to pass the tests before you become a real ninja.
Complete Three Ascetic Challenges
Interact with the controller to open the door and run forward towards the enemy. Next, you will need to drink a special potion to “form your power.” However, you can refuse. However, this will not affect the ending and rewards in any way, since you will still have to drink the tincture in the end.

Run forward to the explorer Umbra to start second asceticism. You will need to accept the hoop or refuse it. Again, your choice will not affect anything, since you will still allow the collar to be put on you.
Move on to begin the third asceticism. Note that you will have to fight enemies, so we recommend that you take suitable characters in advance. You should take fire and electric damage dealers (or those who do not care about the vulnerability of enemies). Shielders will also be useful, since the shield will throw enemy attacks back at them.
When you approach the monkeys, you can choose to refuse to fight, but the battle will still occur. The screenshot below demonstrates all the vulnerabilities of enemies.
How to Break the Spell and Clear the Mind
After dealing with the enemies, go forward and talk to Master Kocha again. Then go down the stairs and enter the door on the landing. Go to the scientists again and listen to their conversation. You will learn why Rappa is so obsessed with ninjas.
How to Escape Captivity
After watching the new video, go to Headmistress Umbra and tear up the manga. Go out into the hallway and listen to the conversation between two scientists. Master Kocha will call Rappa a Chaos Ninja and allow her to draw graffiti. Enter the lab and talk to your “mentor” for the third time.

Next, a battle with two elite enemies will begin: Mighty Ape and Sweet Gorilla. We advise you to deal with the primate first, as it can deal gigantic damage with its attacks. Try not to use skills with characters with low health, so that the enemy does not kill them with one hit, or protect them with a shield in advance.
After dealing with the enemies, watch the new cutscene. Master Kocha will order the girl to run. Then you will take control of Rappa. Use her technique (the “E” key) to get on the surfboard and start moving forward. Destroy the purple containers to restore your Tech Points.
Then watch a long cutscene in which the Galactic Ranger finds and takes the girl Rappa with him. This will end the mission. As a reward, you will receive 60 Star Jades, 6 Traveler's Guides, 60 thousand credits, 500 Mastery Points, and 6 Refined Ethers. Plus, you will have access to the next quest, “Asdan Rhapsody.”
