To unlock the "Insane" difficulty you have to finish the game on hard. You don't need the true ending to unlock the mode and you don't need the true ending to unlock this achievement. All you have to do is to defeat the endboss.
In my opinion the achievement should have a higher ratio, but with all the checkpoints it's a matter of learning and patience... and skill, of course. In this difficulty you start with a very low amount of lifepoints and you can die with only a single hit. Your bow is your best friend and you should try to defeat enemys from the distance if you can.
You can obtain items from bosses if you defeat them without taking damage during the fight and with the lack of lifepoints you are more or less forced to defeat them in that way. Restart the fight if you take some damage and survive, especially if you have the chance to get some usefull stuff.
Some items can make your run a lot easier. I'll give a step by step list as a small roadmap for the most important items with a short description. I added my steps to map from the other guide here: https://picload.org/view/rwlrcdda/642031075_preview_momodora...
Step 1 : Collect the Astral Charm to cut of some grinding time later. It's protected by a huge enemy. Use  to pass him... afterwards he is easy to kill, but to pass him can be a bit risky.
Step 2 : Collect the Edea's Pearl after your first perfect boss fight. I love and hate this item. At this early stage is useful and beeing able to poison is sweet, but you can poison yourself which ends deadly and this happened to me many times. So use this item with caution. Use your bow for the boss fight and make sure to evade all his attacks.
Step 3: Buy the Crystal Seed for 80 munny star at shopkeeper A. This item can help you in the early boss fighst and give you a 50% attack boost.
Step 4: Collect the Bakman Patch after the perfect boss fight. Before you drop down to the boss, make sure to open the shortcut and save your game. Poison the boss in phase 1 and just shoot arrows from a good distance. In phase 2 you should use your 50% attack boost and leaf to attack her boobs. You probably need a couple of attempts, until you figure how to evade all the attacks. The Bakman Patch can be really useful in some boss fights like the one with the bow guy and girl. With 2 full hits she lost around 75% of her energy. The only bad thing about the item is the summon time. You are unproteced for a couple of seconds and should try to use it at situations with a short waiting time or right at the start of the boss fight.
Step 5: Collect 700 munny stars. I killed the 2 enemys in the room right next to shop E room. You can use Bakman Patch to kill the enemys and refill this attack at the save point. It's probably not the best grinding spot, but i used this place because the shop with the item is nearby and my goal was to benefit as early as possible from the necklace to make this run easier.
Step 6: Buy the Neclace of Sacrifice. This item give you 100% attack power if you have low amount of health. You should have this bonus even fully healed and this makes this item so handy. If you collect too many hearts, you can lose this "always on" effect. That happened to me and i had to use the tissue item to damage myself to reactive the effect, because most other enemys killed me with a single hit.
Step 7: Collect the Sparse Thread after the perfect boss fight. Make sure to open the shortcut and save your game first. You probably saw the rockets blocking the door. If you stand above the door an enemy should bomb these rocks away and open the way to the shortcut. The boss fight should be not that hard. Sometimes i got killed by the big laser beam, but if you press down to duck, you can shoot from the distance and with the power of the necklace you should be able to defeat him in a short time. The Sparse Thread can be handy for some boss fights. I know the attack doesn't look impressive, but can deal a good amount of damage. You can kill the knight miniboss with these 2 hits and it also helped me to defeat the big breasted enemy in the battle before you enter the cat form for the first time.
Step 8: Collect the Bloodstained Tissues. You can have 4 total. You find a couple just on the floor at a deadend and you can get the other couple as a perfect boss fight reward. You can sacrifce lifepoints for a 100% damage boost. If you use the item 3 times, you have a 300% damage boost! If you use it 4 times without healing you will probably die. I'm not sure if you lose 25% or a specific amount of your lifepoints. You have to use the item BEFORE you trigger a boss fight. Otherwise the damage you take mess up your perfect win.
Step 9: Collect Pocket Incensory and equip it. This item let shoot you fire arrows and stagger your enemys. I replaced it with the poison effect and used in combination with the necklace.
Step 10: Collect all other fragments and defeat the final boss. Without Spring Leaf there are only 2 phases instead of 3. In Phase 1 it's not that hard to evade the attack and with a boosted attack power you can do a good amount of damage with your bow. For phase 2 i used the Bakman Patch, because the boss stayed at the center for a long time and lost more than 50% of his energy with 2 of these attacks.
