Introduction [Intr]
=============================================================================
This game is a pretty nice beat em up game. The main charms are the
characters, their one liners, their bravados, and the humors. The downside
of the game is the somewhat sluggish control. The game fees like it's pulled
our a Cop Movie with all the cliches. The game's enjoyable, specially if
you're the kind of person that like to take your time and see what the NPCs
on non-mission area says.
=============================================================================
Controls [Ctrl]
=============================================================================
Pause Menu: Press start during a stage and you will have the option to return
to Yaesu Police Station where you can save your game and such.
Move/walk: Press the control pad in the direction you want to go.
Run: Double tap and hold the right/left control pad to run right/left
respectively.
Sliding Tackle: Run and then press X. You can slide under enemy's shot.
Shoulder Tackle: Run and then press Y.
Sidestep: Double tap up or double tap down to sidestep up or down
respectively. Sidestep is crucial at later levels, can't win a
gun fight if you can't dodge bullets.
Talk to people: Stand close to them and press A. Only work on non-hostile
NPCs.
Pick up item: Stand on the item and press A.
Punch: Press Y.
Kick: Press X.
Jump: Press B. I don't see the point of jumping besides to evade enemy's
slide, but by the time I see the enemy slide, I'm ussually already
with my back on the ground before I could jump. Don't know why can't
jump and attack in this game.
Combo: Tap Y or X to pull a punch or kick combos. The length of the combo is
determine by how many scrolls you've found.
Closing Shot: If u timed your ending hit correctly, you can close your combo
with a gun shot. You will always close with your handgun, not
with the current gun you have. This doesn't consume your ammo.
Only practice can help you here on the timing.
Throws: Press Y and B together to grab your opponent and punch/kick/headbutt
and throw them to the other enemies. You're invincible while you're
in the throwing animation, but at the end you have a short opening
for the enemies to hit you.
Block: Hold down R button. Can block most of melee hits, but not guns.
Super Move: Hold R and press Y or X. Super move will knock down the enemies
around you, but you'll loose about 2 bar of your life but you can
recover back 1 bar slowly over time as long as your don't get hit
during those time. You don't loose life if your move doesn't hit
any enemy.
Shoot gun: Hold down L button and press Y or X.
The sluggish part of the game's controls are the Super Move and shooting
your gun. If u'r moving, pressing and holding R or L will have no effect.
(i.e. You can't move, press and hold L, and press Y and expect to shoot.)
You need to be stationary, press and hold L, wait for about 0.5 second
animation (u don't have to wait for the pull-gun-out animation to
finish), pray you don't get hit during that interval, THEN you press Y
or X and you will successfully shoot. Super Move is faster to pull.
If you're on the ground pressing L or R doesn't work, you need to get up and
then press and hold L or R and THEN press X or Y. Timing is very tight if
the enemies surround you when you're on the ground, better to just
sidestep after you wake up.

Day 1:
11:00 Lewis Cannon
Standard Procedure
Areas available:
SHIBUYA
Kumomi Pier [nothing]
Marunouchi [nothing]
Shinjuku [nothing]
SHIBUYA is the introductory stage, Rika and Bando tells you what the
controls are. Each enemy dies in 3 hits, so a complete combo that connect
will do the trick. When I say hit, I mean a hit from a punch/kick. Damage
from your tackle is worth less than 1 hit from your punch/kick. Shot from
your handgun is worth 1 hit. Check Tips & Trick section to see the damage
chart, somewhat...ish.
The game starts by putting you in Shibuya, press start and go back
to station if you wanna check around other areas.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
14:30 Lewis Cannon
Freeway Fireworks
Areas available:
FREEWAY
Shibuya [vest]
Shinjuku [scroll]
Kumomi Pier [nothing]
Shibuya have vest upgrade. Talk to Curbside Sage and defeat 4 opponents in
10 seconds. Can defeat each one with 3 hits, don't do your 3rd hit combo
if it not going to defeat the mob.
Shinjuku has scroll upgrade. Talk to Elder of the Mall at the top floor and
defeat 4 opponents (all have handgun) without getting hit. They spawn to the
left of the sage, use kicks to get all 4 of em right as they spawn.
They die in 3 hits.
FREEWAY has no enemies, just keep walking and you'll finish the stage.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
16:00 Lewis Cannon
Akihabara Burning
Areas available:
AKIHABARA
AKIHABARA will introduce molotov cocktail thrower, knife wielder, big guy,
and female fighter.
Molotov cocktail thrower will uh... throw their molotov cocktail at you if
you're about a kicking distance from them, the bomb will take off 1 bar of
your HP, but they die in 2 hits.
Knife wielder use sliding tackle, an annoying move as the range is quite far.
Need 5 hits to beat them down. Note that they will not throw their knife.
Big guy will take a while to beat down as 12 hits are needed. They also use
shoulder tackle to close in their distance and knock you down.
Female fighter throws hits more often than the other enemies, they die in
5 hits, no fancy moves. They just close in and start punching or kicking
almost nonstop.
You will often get surrounded as you move through the levels. When the
enemies shows up look at the arrows that shows up on the screen, those are
the enemies. Take out the side with less enemies first, by the time you take
down that side, the enemies on the other side should be bunch up together,
use kicks to take them all out at once. There's a shotgun hidden in a
barrel around 1/3 of the stage, good to take out multiple foes that are
spread out. Don't be afraid to use it, as there are couple bullets box
later.
You'll fight your first boss at the end of this stage, a kungfu master.
Lewis will pull his 3 minutes bravado here, I don't think it count yet
at this stage.
The boss sidesteps a lot, its hard to hit him with gun, easier to connect
hits with your fist (yeap, Lewis is right). He does a damaging combo hits
and also jumping knives throws. He also have lackeys to help him. Take down
the molotov lackeys first. Its best to approach the boss vertically and
use punches, if you're approaching the boss horizontally start with kicks.
If you get surrounded, sidestep and run to either side so the enemies are
all bunched at one side. Then use kicks or tackles to take a bunch of them
down.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
14:15 Takeshi Bando
Bayside Boogie
Areas available:
KUMOMI PIER
Marunouchi [nothing]
Shibuya [nothing]
Shinjuku [nothing]
Almost nothing but knife wielders. Use Bando'ss far kick range to take groups
of them at once, his kicking range is further than the knife wielders
sliding range trigger, so if u kick and they back steps they won't slide
at you.
Pick up the blinking bright object at the end of the level to finish the
stage.

down. If you hear a gun click, sidestep ASAP. There are nothing but
terrorists this stage. There's a shotgun after the first wave of
terrorists. Couple of restorative items further along. There's a First
Aid Kit and Bullet Box near the end of the level. If you see them you're
almost done with the level, don't hesitate to use them.

Marunouchi [vest]
Shinjuku [vest]
Kumomi Pier [nothing]
Note that if you have upgraded vest 1 time before, you can only get 1 more
vest from either Marunoichi or Shinjuku, you can't get both. If you get your
second vest from Marunoichi here, then you can't get another vest from
Shinjuku here, and vice versa.
If you haven't upgraded any vest, you might be able to get both vests, but
I haven't test this yet.
Shinjuku has vest upgrade. Talk to Maestro of Legend and defeat 4 female
fighters in 25 seconds. Need 5 hits to beat down. 2 spawn on the left, 2
on the right. Take down the left side first (if you talked to the old man
from his left), throw 2 hits at them, stop to interupt your combo, then
pull a new 3 hits combo to down them. Then focus on the other 2 on the
right, same tactics, 2 hits, stop, 3 hits, new vest.
Marunouchi has vest upgrade. Talk to Stock Market Wizard and defeat 4
J-Members under 20 seconds. 2 spawn on the left, 2 spawn on the right.
4 hits to beat them down. Tackle one side, and combo the other side.

that Young Criminal. A wave of 4 Young Criminal and 1 Knife Wielder next.
The other palet swap of the Young Criminal only need 3 hits to down,
but they all carry handgun. There's a burger in the bottom of the first 3
barrels you see. Another burger in the phone booth. Rice balls, machine gun,
ammo box a bit further. A wave of 5 Young Criminal and 1 Knife Wielder next.

for the scroll. The J-Members take 4 hits to down. The enemies dressed like
biker in black take 3 hits to down. Talk to Papa Taro, the J-Guru and beat
4 knife wielders without getting hit, 5 hits to down them. Talk to Papa
Taro from his right, if you talk from his left, 2 knife wielders will spawn
on your left and 2 on your right. With all 4 of them on the left, should be
able to manage easier, use 2 punch, stop, 2 punch then kick. This should down
the first 2 knife wielder and the kick should hit the other 2. Stop interupt
your combo and continue to beat them. Might not always work depend on the
enemies position. Alternate way is just use your gun and shoot em, 2
handguns on the right of Papa Taro.
KUMOMI PIER starts with a wave of 5 terorist with handgun and 1 knife
wielder. Terorist need 8 hits, knife wielder 5 hits. Don't rush in too

so will the boss. Use your gun to shoot the boss, don't worry bout ammo, the
lackey that spawns will leave ammo box if defeated. Stay at the far right
of the screen and shoot, the boss will flinch if hit, jump over the
barrels he throws, if a lackey is close, down him quick (3hit, stop,
3hit, stop, repeat). Note that if the boss is reloading his barrels you
can't shoot him, have to wait for him to show up on screen, grab the bullet
box while the boss is reloading his barrels. If 3 minute is over, the boss

"Hey, Lewis, here's a tip...
When you're infiltrating a site, do it in style.

handgun shots. He also have a combo of melee hits closed with rocket
launcher. He can fire either his handgun or rocket launcher
independently outside of those combo. All his lackeys are terrorists with
either handgun or machine gun. Sidesteps and herd them all on 1 side.
If your surrounded form both sides but the enemies are some distance from
you, use the machine gun to knock down 1 side to the floor so you need
only to focus on 1 side, down that side fast before the other side get up
from the floor. Use punch-punch-punch-kick, interupt,
punch-punch-punch-kick, repeat, to down the enemies fast. Or you can just
you punch-punch-punch, depend on the mobs distance when you comboing.
If u get hit with the rocket you'll loose about 9-10 bars of your HP, but
you can recover 3 bars back overtime as long as you don't get hit during
those time.
There's a First Aid Kit at the start of this part, a Bullet Box 1 screen

be to your right, use Punch-Punch-Kick-interupt-repeat as they're bunched
together and hopefully none of em able to hit back. This doesn't always work.
Alternative way is running and tackle all of them when they're bunched, run
away from them and wait for them to get up and approached you and they should
be bunched together, use kicks to hit em all. If any of the enemy starts to
move slowly behind you as you hit them, sidestep and herd them to one side
and repeat.
SHINJUKU, talk to the NPC in white, don't bother breaking boxes, just break
the barrels (thought some are hidden behind boxes), and most of them will
have a blinking light under it, pick them up. You can clear the stage just
by picking up the blinking light under the red barrel on the 3rd floor.

Second section, wave start with 2 officers, 3 blue barrels with nothing under

slowly as 2 of these officers suddenly drop down from above, if you're too

officer. End of second section.
You'll see some cutscene when you start the third section. First Aid Kit

When you see the SWAT with machine gun then you're about 2-4 more enemies

automaticaly go into cutscene (1 time I had 2 bars left and the cutscene

Day 6
00:05 Rika Hyodo
La Femme Rika
Areas available:
KUMOMI PIER
KUMOMI PIER doesn't end if you don't walk to the right end wall when the Go
sign is flashing. The Go sign only appear when you've cleared the current
wave, it will dissapear if enemies spawn. If it dissapear you'll have to
clear the enemies. Stick to the right end of the screen this stage,
so that as soon as the Go sign shows up you can finish the stage. If
you're not close there's a possibility that another wave come in as you
move to the right end wall, especially if you're on the left end of the
stage, enemies seems to keep spawning there.
Now for the 2 items in this stage:
1 screen distance to the left from where you start are 2 barrels, Bowl of
Noodle under the bottom barrel. 2 screen distance to the left form that
are 5 barrels, shotgun under the bottom barrel. I think these items are
more of a trap than help. I'd skip them unless I'm really low on life
then I'd get the noodle. If you do decide to get the items, get back
to the right end of the stage before taking out the enemies.
It seems the position you are at determine what enemy will spawn.
The possible enemies this stage are:
Unarmed SWAT (8 hits)
Big officer (12 hits)
Officer (6 hits)
Big guy with pipe (13 hits)
Terrorist with machine gun (6 hits)
The stage starts with 4 big officers to your right, you can corner them and
just punch-interupt-punch till they all die. If you stick your back to the
right wall, there's a possibility that you can finish the stage by just
fighting that 4 big officers, and 2 SWATs that spawn after.
There's a limit on the enemies that can spawn, but there's no point
dragging the fight long, unless if you're doing it for the challenge.

First floor, officers and unarmed SWATs. Good enough for warm up.
Burger on the floor at the end of this floor which is about 3 screen
distance from start. Go up the stairs to get to the next section.
Second floor section one, 2 unarmed SWATs drop down, next 6 officers, 2 SWATs
with knife (they have hand gun, althought it's not visible when they pull it
out, they'll be in shooting stance while holding the knife), 2 more officers,
and another 2 officers, shotgun on floor, 1 unarmed SWAT and 1 big officer
show up, 3 SWATs with knife, 3 unarmed SWATs. Burger on floor at the end
of this section. Go through the door to get to the next section.
But, Cutscene before the door open, I really have no idea is Lewis doing
that for style, or he really thought he can open the door that way...
I suppose that's his charm XD.
Second floor section two, 2 SWAT with machine gun drop down, 1 SWAT with
knife few steps further. Rocket launcher on floor few steps from start.
Next wave, from the left 1 female with machine gun, from the right 1

launcher, 2 females with machine gun, 2 officers, 1 terrorist with machine
gun (from the left). There's a Bullet Box around where the terrorist with
rocket launcher show up. Last wave, 3 terrorists with rocket launcher, 2
terrorists with machine gun. You should now be very close to the end of this
section when the last wave starts showing up, theres a First Aid Kit at the
end of the section. Don't kill all the enemies from the last wave if you
need the First Aid Kit, because you'll immediately go to the next section
when you've beat down all the enemies.
The elevator is just 1 screen small, where you face 2 waves of: 2 SWATs with
machine gun and 2 SWATs with knife. Can corner them easily here. You'll
immediately go to the next section when you've beat down all the enemies.
Top floor, 2 SWATs with machine gun, 1 terrorist with machine gun, and 1
terrorist with rocket launcher. First Aid Kit under wooden box 1 screen
away from the start, when you see this box, 1 terrorist with machine gun
will show up. Next wave, 1 female with machine gun, 2 terrorists with hand
gun. You'll see another wooden box with machine gun inside it, and the next
wave will come, from the left: 1 terrorist with machine gun, 1 terrorist with
rocket launcher, from the right: 1 female with machine gun, 1 terrorist with
hand gun. Next wave, from left: 1 terrorist with hand gun, from right, 2
terrorists with machine gun and 1 terrorist with rocket launcher.
After the wave you'll see another wooden box with handgun inside it and the
next wave will come, 3 terrorists with machine gun and 2 terrorists with
rocket launcher. You're 1 screen distance away from the end, Bowl of noodle,
hand gun, shotgun, machine gun, and rocket launcher, pick you poison. Keep
going right to meet the man behind it all.
Boss fight: Commissioner Endo has punch/kick that's quick and covers the
range about Lewis's kicking distance. He also has access to machine gun,
shotgun, and rocket launcher. Machine gun and rocket launcher are easy to
sidestep, but can't seem to sidestep his shotgun if he shoot from 1 distance
range away from you, just have to bite the bullet. Crowd control the
lackeys, combo-interupt-combo, sidestep bullets, nothing more I can say,
if you got to this part of the game, you should know how this game works.
This will be the last stage if you die or get too low on life when playing
Rika on Day 5, 23:55, during the third section of that stage.

Tips & Trick [T&T_]
=============================================================================
Sidestep is very important.
Master the sidestep.
You're on the ground, and the enemies surrounds you from both side, what's
the first thing to do when you wake up? Sidestep.
Hear a gun cock? Sidestep.
See enemy pull out their gun? Sidestep.
Enemy approaching you from your back when you're hitting someone? Sidestep.
Can't win a gun fight if you can't dodge bullets.
If the enemy is keeping their distance about a kick from you, there's a high
chance they will pull out their gun or use their special moves. Prepare to
sidestep or kick them fast.
If an enemy pull out their gun, they will not put it away until they fired
or they got hit. So running away from them will not help much, they will
still shoot. If you're running away diagonally, their shot can miss, but
this is not guaranteed. Need to hit them or sidestep their shot.
If an enemy is cornered don't perform a combo on them. Just keep punching,
but timed it slowly so that you don't start comboing with your punch. You
want the enemy to flinch from your hits but unable to recover and hit back.
This even work on the bosses, but since they have lackeys, they can disrupt
this.
Sometimes it's better to not finish your combo moves, since the finishing
hit will knock down your enemy and it will take sometime for them to get up
from the floor before you can hit them again. If you stop your combo midway
and start a new combo string, the enemy will not get knocked down and you
can keep dishing hits on them. This is important on Lewis's 3 minute
bravados or the timed fight for your vests upgrade.
If you're surrounded, sidestep and run to either side, tackle down the
persistent enemies that backsteps to keep you in the middle (if there's
any). Then turn around and start kicking the enemies that are now bunched
on the other side. The key is to keep the enemies that are attacking
(i.e. on their feet) at one side.
Some of the punch in the punch combos distance is sometime very short and
you can miss the enemy. Example is Lewis's 4th punch in his combo, he uses
uppercut, the distance is very short, it misses the enemy most of the time.
I find it best to just Punchx3-interupt-Punchx3-repeat instead of doing
full punch combo. And if I do want to do a full combo I switch to kicks
after the 3rd punch (i.e. punch-punch-punch-kick-kick-kick-kick), this
give me a better chance to connect all my hits.

Miscellaneous [Misc]
=============================================================================
Some comments from the sages when you complete their test:
#1 Vest: Curbside Sage, "strong enough to withstand damnation".
#2 Vest: Maestro of Legend, "You are a virtuoso of violence!".
#4 Scroll: Blind Hermit, "One may challenge the gods with this much skill".
#5 Scroll: The Man who Inspires All, "You now have the skill of the gods in
your hands".
Binary Zealot, "01001001 00100000 00111100 00110011 00100000 01010101".
Ever wonder what that means?
In decimal those numbers are: 73, 32, 60, 51, 32, 85
Look up those value in ASCII chart, and you'll get: I space < 3 space U
Put them in strings and voilla... "I <3 U"
That's "I love you" if you're still wondering.
