The task icon on the interactions wheel. February 2nd, 2016.
Tasks are a type of interaction with students that can be used to befriend said students. They have not been fully implemented yet.
When Ayano Aishi walks up to a student and prompts the interaction wheel, the player must choose the sprite art of the two people holding hands. When chosen, the student will proceed to tell the player what their task is.
As of the October 11th, 2015 Build, Ayano can accept or deny the task. Press E to accept the task and Q to refuse.
After completing the task, Ayano must walk up to the student and select the task function again. The student will thank her and a big pink "TASK COMPLETE!" sign will appear on the screen for several seconds. The player's reputation will increase by 1, and the student will become her friend and will be willing to do tasks for her. There are also other benefits that have not been released yet.[1] The same task cannot be completed again unless the game is reset. Tasks cannot be given to Ayano in the morning until after the student has put on their indoor shoes or if their task that involves specific character are absent in school.
Ayano is able to check her phone to view all the tasks available. When a task is completed, a check mark will appear next to the mission.

Delinquent Tasks
Main Article: Delinquents
Delinquent Tasks are different from Normal Tasks. Normal Tasks involve befriending a student, to get them to do favors for you, such as following, distracting and leaving. The Delinquents however, don't give you these favors. Instead, their tasks are one of the mandatory requirements to join their gang.

Ayano can complete this task by taking a knife from the Cooking Club or the rooftop (Debug), or taking the ritual knife from the occult club room.

Ayano can purchase cigarettes from Info-chan for just 5 info points.
Dairoku Surikizu: Dairoku Surikizu is under the impression that you are too well-behaved to break school rules. To convince him otherwise, you must steal an answer sheet from the Faculty Room.
This task can be tricky to accomplish. The player will need to make sure that nobody is in the room. The easiest method is to wait until all the teachers leave for class at 8:15, and then distract Kyoshi Tachibana, the gym teacher, using giggles or the radio.
Rival Tasks

Rivals task are different from normal tasks and completing their tasks will unlock new gameplay options. It is extremely useful to be able to unlock rival favors, such as being able to tranquilize them.

As of the May 20th, 2017 Build, this task has been temporarily removed.
Trivia
- Tasks were implemented in the October 8th, 2015 Build.
- In the full game, Ayano will be able to do tasks for rivals as well. This will open new gameplay options.[4]
- Ayano can never make friends with faculty members. However it is unknown if this is applicable to Mida Rana and Muja Kina.[5]
- Raibaru Fumetsu does not have a task. According to YandereDev, this is because "It was trivializing the entire 'befriend Budo to get Raibaru to leave Osana’s side' feature".[6]
- Geiju Tsuka does not have a task. This is because he speaks in two word sentences, the current placeholder task does not fit him, since it contains more than two words.
