There are 24 Effects in .flow that Sabitsuki can collect. Each effect will change Sabitsuki's appearance when equipped, and some of them give Sabitsuki unique abilities, such as the ability to hurt NPCs or move faster, or otherwise allow her to trigger specific events throughout her dream world.
Collecting every Effect is generally considered to be the game's main objective. Doing so will allow Sabitsuki to trigger the game's first ending by leaving her room in reality.
Spoilers:
Obtaining every effect also allows Sabitsuki to transform into Rust through her dream computer, dramatically changing her mental world, opening new, exclusive locations, and ultimately allowing her to access the remaining two endings. After turning into Rust, three more collectibles, known as Empty Boxes, can be found in locations that Sabitsuki refused to enter. Gathering all three unlocks a new area accessible through Sabitsuki's dream room, which leads to the game's final ending.

Instructions
(説明書)
See the game's instructions.
Appearance: None.
Passive Effect: None.
Action: A small description of the gameplay shows on the screen.
Directions: This effect is given when you start the game.
Practical Uses: Can be used to find out how the game works.
Empty Boxes
Spoilers:
The Empty Boxes are three items that can only be obtained as Rust. They lack official names: the term Empty Box comes from the completely empty "got item" box displayed when one is collected. For the sake of readability, the guides below use conjectural names, based off of the names of internal switches and flags related to the events.
Collecting all three is the main objective of Rust's part of the game: Doing so enables access to the Rust Corridor, and by extension, the game's final ending.
Note that there is no way to track which ones have already been collected, as they do not show up in any menu.
Spoilers end here.Demon (鬼)
Spoilers:
Directions: Entrance → Utility Pole World → Apartments → Snow World → Illusionary Corridors → Back Ward
The Demon is found inside a bloody hole at the end of the Back Ward.
Entering the hole will take her to a facsimile of the Blood, Rust, and Pus event's bloody room. Rust can enter the doorway, which will further lead her to a variant of the Childbirth event.
The Onigo in the room will all die as Rust approaches, allowing her easy access to the next room. The Childbirth event will seem to have already played out, as the giantess Onigo is already dead. Interacting with her disemboweled corpse will grant Rust the Demon. The screen will fade into red static afterwards before booting Rust back out to the Back Ward, the bloody hole now closed.
Notably, the hole itself can be interacted with as Sabitsuki: While it'll appear closed, she can open it by hitting it with the Iron Pipe. However, she will refuse to enter.
Spoilers end here.Purity (無垢)
Spoilers:
Directions: Entrance → Utility Pole World → Apartments → Submarine Corridors → Orange Maze → Orange Laboratory
The Purity is found at the very end of the Orange Laboratory.
Find the test tube Oreko in the Orange Maze. Interacting with her, and then heading south will lead you to the Orange Laboratory. At the Orange Laboratory, head right and proceed down the stairs until you pass by the first light fixture, and then immediately turn around to proceed to the next area.
The path to the Purity is fairly linear from here: Interact with the giant Sabitsuki in a test tube at the very end to obtain it.
Sabitsuki will refuse to enter the room with the Purity, although she can explore everything leading up to it freely.
Spoilers end here.Smile (笑顔)
Spoilers:
Directions: Entrance → Music World → Connecting Tile Path → White Room → Blood Maze → Insides → Sewers → Northern Wastewater Lake → Neighborhood → School
The Smile is found in the basement of the School.
There is nothing particularly noteworthy about the route there. Once you're at the School, head for the basement. Once inside, interact with the giant, gaping mouth to obtain the Smile. Rust will be booted out of the room afterwards with a giggle and cannot reenter.
While Sabitsuki can technically access the School basement, she cannot enter the room with the Smile.
