It's not much work at all. >_>

even if it was you've seen how much i can type out on stuff!

There are 5 endings. A Bad/Joke Ending, and then Normal/True Endings for Cass and Ion.

Bad/Joke ending - In the course of the story there's an option that will cause it if you take it. You will very likely know it when you see it.

As for the other 4, there's Normal and True Ends for both Cass and Ion:

Once you start the final boss sequence/pass the point of no return you're given a choice which team to use for the first part of the final boss sequence. Whoever you pick is the ending you'll get. Normal/True hinges on having crafted (and presumably holding on to) a particular item (the very last one you can craft. It's crafted at Sarly's shop and is called ?A Miracle? before you craft it to see the real name.) If you have it, you get the True Ends, if you don't, Normal End.

tl;dr:

Bad/Joke Ending: Pick a dialogue option that should be fairly obvious as leading to a bad/joke option when it comes in the story. More detail: It's a conversation between Delta and Shurelia
Cass Normal End: Choose to start the final boss sequence with Team Cass and don't craft the ?A Miracle? item.
Cass True End: Choose to start the final boss sequence with Team Cass and have crafted ?A Miracle? beforehand
Ion Normal End: Choose to start the final boss sequence with Team Ion and don't craft ?A Miracle?
Ion True End: Choose to start the final boss sequence with Team Ion and craft ?A Miracle? And then there's one more choice you have to make but you should know it when you see it. If you don't pick it you functionally get Ion's Normal End albeit slightly altered.

The bad ending is missable because the choice is part of a story conversation so if you don't pick the option that leads to it the story marches on. I've always thought of the Normal Ends as "missable" but I never tested just tossing the ?A Miracle? item and seeing if that puts you back on them. Not even sure if you can or if that would work.

As for content differences... I'd say they're worth seeing, well the Bad/Joke ending will make you feel like a jerk so maybe you won't want to bring yourself to do that one. You do have to run the final boss sequence for each of the "real" endings, but you can work your way to the very end of the game and save before walking into the final boss with ?A miracle? uncrafted. Then run it twice for the Normal Ends, then craft ?A miracle? and you're set for the True Ends.

I'd save Ion's True End for last (or only if you only feel like doing one.)
