    Otaku no Seiza, translated as "Constellation of the Nerd", is an RPG
released only in Japan for the NES/Famicom. At its core, it is a Dragon Quest
clone as far as gameplay style goes. However, the charm of the game comes
from the storyline and the dialogue, which are both somewhat humorous and
have caused some to compare this game to Earthbound. The characters and
townspeople are all a little strange. I guess you'd say they're supposed to
be nerdy. So there's a lot of dialogue that sounds a bit funny for an RPG,
but of course you won't be able to enjoy this aspect if you cannot understand
Japanese very well.
    Ignoring the charming character of the plot, the game is very
unpolished. The level building mechanics and difficulty are completely
unbalanced. It's very difficult to win even a simple battle at the beginning
of the game, but after a good amount of level building time, the game will
suddenly become ridiculously easy. The worst part of the game is that it is
often very unclear what you are supposed to do. You would likely be stuck
several times during a playthrough if you didn't have this walkthrough for
reference. But if you're anything like me, it's an NES game, so you must beat
it!
    There was also a remake of the game released for the Turbo CD which
features updated graphics and perhaps it is more polished, although I have
never played that version so I don't know. If you're not married to the NES
like I am, then you might find that version more enjoyable.

Originally, men and women lived together in harmony. But then Indra awoke
from a 7000 year deep sleep. Indra destroyed many men and forced all women to
be his girlfriends.

The world has become a place where women, who are all Indra's girlfriends,
are superior in rank. Men are considered lowly nerds.

You are a young boy, and within you lies all the charms of a man. You must
fulfill your potential to become a true man and convince women that men are
more than just nerds. You will need the help of women to overthrow Indra and
make the world the peaceful place it once was.

The most powerful rulers on the planet are five women called the Aurora
women. You must convince them that men are wonderful and enlist their help to
overthrow Indra.

When you begin the game, you will be presented with the following menu
options:
ファイル1さいせいする - "File 1 regeneration"
ファイル2さいせいする - "File 2 regeneration"
ファイル1をファイル2へうつす - "Duplicate file 1 on file 2"
ファイル2をファイル1へうつす - "Duplicate file 2 on file 1"
ファイル1をけす - "Delete file 1"
ファイル2をけす - "Delete file 2"

The top two options will either start a new game or continue a previously
started game. If you start a new game, you will be prompted to enter your
character's name. you will see the Japanese "alphabet", and you will also
have the command おわり ("End"), which you should select when you are happy
with your Japanese name.

---Basics----------------------------------------------------------[sec3a]---
Anyone familiar with the Dragon Quest style of RPG will feel right at home
with the mechanics of this game. However, there are a few special points
worth noting in this section:

(1) Only the party member who kills an enemy will gain experience from that
   enemy.
(2) If you command two of your characters to attack the same enemy, but the
   first to act kills that enemy, the second character will not attack a
   different enemy, they just lose their chance to act for that turn.
(3) Save your game by visiting guys that are standing next to recorders that
   look like an old time radio. They are usually located in a Live House.
(4) Heal by resting at an inn, using specific force powers, or using items.

---Death in the Party----------------------------------------------[sec3b]---
If your main character dies, you will get a game over. You will be forced to
reload your game from the last save point.

If one of your other party members dies, you can revive them by visiting a
spirit medium, located in some villages. There is a fee for the revival.

Very late in the game, you can learn a force power that will revive dead
party members.

---Force Powers----------------------------------------------------[sec3c]---
Force powers are the magic spells of this game.

To learn force powers, you can buy some at force power shops, located in many
villages. You will also learn some force powers by completing certain
missions.

Some force powers are automatically upgraded when you level up.

---Status Ailments ------------------------------------------------[sec3d]---
Here are the status ailments in this game:

Poison (ドク) - Your defense is decreased. This ailment can rarely go away
    on its own during battle. To cure it, use a Dokudami.
Dizzy (メマイ) - This ailment has no obvious effect. It can rarely go away
    on its own during battle.
Paralyzed (マヒ) - A paralyzed character can take no actions. This effect
    will go away after a few turns, and it automatically goes away when
    the battle ends.

You begin the game in Jipang City as a man with amnesia. It would be a bad
idea to go outside without preparation, so stay within the city for now.
Enter the building with the sign that says "Live" on it. These buildings are
referred to as Live Houses, which are like jazz bars where people can come to
listen to jazz music. They are important locations in this game. The managers
of the Live Houses will help you out along your journey. Go down the stairs
and speak to the guy on the stage, who is the manager of this Live House. He
says that they have been waiting a long time for a strong man to appear and
he needs to test your abilities by asking you to bring him the Man Tickets
from each of the other Live House managers on this continent. There are 3
other Live Houses who you need to get the Man Tickets from. He says he will
give you a nice reward if you are able to do this. Say "yes" (はい) to agree
to this. He will give you a Letter of Introduction (しょうかいじょう) and 100
Gold. He says to try visiting Metro City to the North.

You can save your game upstairs in the Live House by talking to the guy there
and saying "yes" (はい). The game saving guy always looks the same and is
always next to what looks like a juke box, so remember what he looks like for
future reference. You can also restore your HP and FP by visiting the lower-
right building here, but going in through a somewhat hidden entrance in the
lower-right end of the building.

You can find a Fire Gun (ファイヤーガン) in a treasure chest downstairs in a
building on the left side of the screen. So get that and equip it. You will
also want to buy an Iron Suit (アイアンスーツ) and equip it.

You are now prepared to wander outside. But be prepared, you will die very
easily. There are only two enemies that you can contend with at this point.
They are: スライヌ ("Slainu") and エテゾー ("Etezor"). Run away from any
other enemies. As you gain levels, you can try taking on some of the other
enemies, but you'll probably need to get to level 6 or higher before you can
handle all of the enemies in this area. Don't wander into the trees or any
other terrain other than the plains or the brick path or else even harder
enemies will appear! When you can afford it, buy the Thunder Suit
(サンダースーツ) to improve your defense.

During this level building period, you can probably reach the nearby Metro
City by following the brick path to the North.

 |--------------------------------------|
 | Game Save Room   | Inn - 50          |
 ----------------------------------------

Buy the Flash Gun when you can afford it. You can put getting the Jet Cap off
until you learn some force powers since it just boosts your force power.

Enter the Live House and talk to the manager. You automatically show him the
Letter of Introduction you have and he says he won't give you his ticket
until you can defeat the monster Yuuji (ユージ) that's been causing trouble.
He says you will learn the force power Acha (アチャ) when you defeat Yuuji as
proof that you have defeated it.

When your level is at least level 6 (you might want to go even higher
though), go North from Metro City to find another town (it's past some
bushes). There's nothing to do in this town for now, so travel West from it
along the path through the bushes to find the Coastal Village.

---Coastal Village-----------------------------------------------------------

 | Item Shop:      | Inn - 50 |

 ------------------------------

Talk to the villagers here to learn that a God Statue was stolen by Shigesato
(シゲサト). You're directed toward the cave a little to the Southeast as a
place to search, so buy some Onigiri (at least 3, but maybe more) and head
there.

---Shigesato Cave------------------------------------------------------------
Treasures: Dokudami, Onigiri, 150 Gold.

The enemies in this cave should be pretty easy for you if you've been level
building as I suggested. There are a few unneccessary treasures you can get
here, and it's a small area so you might as well walk through it to get them,
but the main event is triggered by heading to the Northeast part of the cave
and approaching the treasure there. You will get attacked by Shigesato
(シゲサト).

Boss: Shigesato (シゲサト) 50 Exp/200 Gold
Use regular attacks (that's your only option after all) and use Onigiri to
restore your HP when necessary. I used 3 Onigiri and won at level 9. When you
win, you get the Shigesato Fang (シゲサトのキバ).

Open the chest to get the Laugh Bag (わらいぶくろ), then return to the
Coastal Village. Talk to the elder in the upper-most building. Use the
Shigesato Fang and he'll praise your heroics. You ask for the village's
treasure and a battle begins for some reason. Attack the elder and you get
the God Statue (かみさまのぞう).

Head East from this village and follow the path through the bushes to enter
the nearby village.

 ------------------------------------------------------

Enter the door in the Northwest corner of town. Search the blue square in the
upper-right room to receive the Sickroom Key (びょうしつのカギ). Go down the
stairs to find a Slainu (cat looking creature) behind bars. With the Sickroom
Key in tow, you can walk through the locked door. Use the God Statue on the
Slainu and it will revert to its true form, some ugly looking person named
Goro who you will see often throughout the game. He gives you the Truth Stone
(しんじつのいし), saying to raise it above your head while standing in front
of a crack in a wall in the Metro City Live House to make a secret entrance
appear.

Go to Metro City and talk to the guy in the upper-left building (enter via
the bottom door). He says he built the Live House and says there's a crack on
the back wall of the Live House, located 3 tiles from the left side. Go
around to the back of the Live House, then use the Truth Stone on the third
tile of the back wall to make a hidden staircase appear which you
automatically go down. It is a cavern with enemies.

---Metro City Cave-----------------------------------------------------------
Treasure: Pincers, 200 Gold, 100 Gold, Onigiri.

Go to the treasure chests in a room to the right of the entrance and you will
be attacked by a boss, Yuuji.

Boss: Yuuji (ユージ) 80 Exp/300 Gold
I was at level 15 when I challenged it and it was easy, although I had to
heal once using an Onigiri.

When you win, you get the Diamond Ring (ダイヤのゆびわ) and learn the Force
power Acha (アチャ).

Return to the Metro City Live House and speak to the manager. He says he
wants you to show him you've learned the force power Acha (アチャ). Use Acha
while standing in front of him and he'll be impressed and give you the Man
Ticket (おとこのチケット). Yay! Now we need two more.

There are more towns that you can visit by traveling East from Metro City and
walking over some risen green terrain. Avoid the desert since the enemies are
harder there, but the enemies on the green plateaus are not too bad. East
beyond that terrain is another town called Jioido.

There's a crazy looking guy (everyone in this game is crazy looking though I
guess) that you can talk to in this town who can warp you to other cities,
but he won't do it yet, I just thought I should mention it. Upgrade your
equipment and buy a Junko (じゅんこ) if you don't have one.

Enter the lower-left building of town. Stand across the counter from the old
man there and use the Junko. He will appreciate your gift and give you a
Beautiful Woman (びしょうじょ) as thanks. Is it a whole woman or a doll or
what? I don't know. This game is weird enough it could be he actually gave
you a woman.

Go North to find another town.

---Village North of Jioido---------------------------------------------------
   _________
  /Amenities]
 --------------
 | Inn - 70   |
 --------------

There's not much to do in this town but talk to villagers and rest. From this
town, head Northeast on the world map to find a strange looking boulder.
Stand in front of it and use the Truth Stone to reveal a cave entrance.
Inside, talk to the old man twice, then use the Beautiful Woman. He'll tell
you about a fairy located on an island to the South in a forest.

Go back outside and head South. Travel over some mountains to find a cave.

---Cave to Fairy Island------------------------------------------------------
Treasures: 100 Gold, Denji Gun

Head right to pass through this short cave. Be sure to get the Denji Gun in
the upper-right chest, then exit through the opening in the lower-right
corner. Back on the world map, on the little island, a fairy says she wants
to help you but she can't remember how. Use the Pincers (くぎぬき) and she'll
give you the Fairy Essence (ようせいのエキス), saying it should help restore
humans to their normal form when they've been turned into monsters.

The cave on the South end of this island contains the following treasures:
150 Gold, Onigiri, 200 Gold. It leads to a new part of the world map that is
a large island, but has nothing on it, so it's a waste of time to travel
there.

Return to the Live House in Jioido. Use the Letter of Introduction on the guy
guarding the entrance, then use the Man Ticket on him and he will let you
pass. Talk to the manager at the center of the stage and you see he's been
turned into a beast. Use the Fairy Essence on him, then use the Laugh Bag to
change him back to human. He gives you another Man Ticket (おとこのチケット).
He says the Aurora (オーロラ) woman named Yan (ヤン) did this to him. She is
the lady who rules this area.

Follow the brick path leading South from Jioido to find the village of Keibu.

There is a spirit medium here who can restore dead party members back to life
(in the upper-left building) for future reference. Most of the houses here
have stairs leading down to caves where the townspeople store their
valuables. The treasures which can be found in the caves are:
Dream Diamond, 120 Gold x2, Onigiri x3, Dokudami, 100 Gold x2, Royal Rose.

There is a building toward the upper-right part of the screen which was
previously blocked but you can enter it now. Inside, you can get the Key
(かぎ) and you can speak with the first Aurora woman named Yan.

You tell Yan you want to use her spaceship. She asks you to bring her a
flower. Use the Royal Rose if you have it. If not, go into the caverns under
the houses here and open the treasures to find it and the next item she'll
ask for. Use the Royal Rose and she'll be pleased, but then she asks for a
diamond. Use the Dream Diamond to please her. Then she asks you for a
beautiful baby. That's something we don't have.

Go back outside of this building, then go to a building on the left side of
the screen, near the middle of the left side, which is mostly surrounded by
grass. Inside, there used to be a woman that swore there was no entrance to a
cave here. Now she's gone. Stand on the tile at the top-center of the room,
and use the Truth Stone to make a staircase appear. You will go down into a
cave area where you'll find a woman and her baby. She asks you not to take
the baby because she doesn't want the Aurora women to turn it into something
evil. Some other old lady says she'll come with you and talk to Yan.

Go back to Yan, talk to her, and she gets angry and a battle begins.

Boss: Yan (ヤン) 200 Exp/1000 Gold
I easily defeated her at level 27 by using physical attacks and healing with
the Supon (スポン) force power every once in awhile.

When you defeat Yan, she says something about how she let her weaknesses get
the best of her and she'll treat men well from now on. You get the Parts 1
(パーツ1), which are parts to the spaceship. She says you need to speak to
the other Aurora women to get the rest of the parts. Speak to her again after
the battle and she'll teach you the force power Kochin (コチン). She then
says the manager is in the spirit medium's house.

Go to the house in the upper-left of town and talk to the person there. The
spirit medium will return to his true form, a manager. He thanks you and
gives you the Man Ticket (おとこのチケット), so now you have all of them.

The Key you received in Yan's room will open the door in the Coastal Village
elder's house, where you can get 1000 Gold if you want to go a little out of
your way. It's a good chunk of money.

Return to the first town in the game, Jipang, and talk to the manager in the
Live House. You'll give the Man Tickets to him and he'll reward you with the
Supokon Sword (スポコンのつるぎ) and a Fire Suit (ファイヤースーツ). He
requests that you defeat the rest of the Aurora women. One of them is located
on the South end of this continent.

Return to Keiba, the town with all the caves under the houses, then travel
South on the world map to find a border crossing place surrounded by
mountains called the Rock'n Roll Fortress. The person guarding the passage
through the fortress will allow you to pass now that you have the Supokon
Sword. You will then enter a dungeon type place. It looks like it might be
maze-like, but it's not. Just follow the linear path to exit on the world map
in a new location.

 ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Talk to the lady in front of the bridge and she says she heard about you from
Yan. She is Lin (リン), the Aurora woman who controls this region. She says
if you want some spaceship parts, come visit her, then she disappears.

The man to the left says that you need to be dressed appropriately to enter
the city. Buy a costume from the boutique on the upper-right. I don't think
it matters what outfit you buy here, but for the record I bought the Piggy
Suit (ピギのスーツ). Equip it, then you can pass through the gate.

There are chests in town which contain an Onigiri and 200 Gold. There's a guy
in the Northwest corner of this town that you can talk to to warp back to
Jioido. Look for guys that look like this to warp to previously visited
towns.

Talk to townspeople to hear about a fashion show that happens around town.
Talk to a guy in a building at the top-center of town to hear that the
fashion show isn't really a fasion show but some sort of battle.

Rest at the inn two nights and the fashion show will begin. Talk to the lady
on the stage looking area above the town gate and you will begin a battle
with a boss called Inaba's Father (イナバのチチ). Your attacks won't hurt it
though, so you have to run away. When you do, you will now be imprisoned in
the city's "zoo".

Talk to the three people standing next to each other toward the top and say
はい ("yes") to each of them to receive the items: Araiya Suit
(アライヤのスーツ), Ermez Suit (エルメズのスーツ), and Channel Suit
(チャネルのスーツ). If you accidentally say "no" to one of them, talk to the
guy at the top corner to get a free Bun Burger (バン バーガー), then talk to
the person you said "no" to and they will accept your Bun Burger as a gift
(it happens automatically) and let you retry the question.

After getting the three suits, talk to the guy below (not the one guarding
the entrance). He will let you start the fashion show over. Equip the Araiya
Suit (アライヤのスーツ) and talk to the lady to start the fashion show again.
This time, since you are wearing the correct clothes, you will be able to
damage the boss. After winning, another battle will begin with a boss named
Shigezor (シゲゾー). You won't be able to damage him, so select the そうび
("Equip") option during the battle and you can change the clothes you are
wearing. Equip the Ermez Suit (エルメズのスーツ) and you will be able to
damage him. Defeat him and you will begin a battle with Yuuichi (ユウイチ).
You have to equip the Channel Suit (チャネルのスーツ) to damage him.

After defeating all three enemies, you win the fashion contest. You are given
the option to select a reward. The options are: Bindai Suit
(ビンダイのスーツ), Armani Suit (アラマーニスーツ), Akagi Suit
(アカギのスーツ), and Sumo Loincloth x 2 (フンドシ2ちょう) (this is two Sumo
Loincloths). The top three options are all expensive designer suits, and the
bottom option is two lowly Sumo Loincloths. Select the bottom option to get
the two Sumo Loincloths. If you do not, you will have to repeat the fashion
show again since you will need the Sumo Loincloths very soon. To repeat the
fashion show, sleep at the inn two more times, then talk to the lady above
the town gate to begin the show again.

The guy blocking the bridge above you will now let you pass since you're now
the "fashion leader", woohoo! Down the stairs is a dungeon type area.

---Velsas Dungeon------------------------------------------------------------
Treasures: Harimao Hat, 300 Gold.

Down the stairs, you will come across a lady who is the leader of some people
that are being maltreated in this city (the ones that helped you in the zoo
were some of these). She asks you if you'll help them, so say はい ("yes").
She then asks you a question about what qualities you value most or something
like that, and the options you can answer with are:
ゆうじょう ("Friendship")
おもいやり ("Sympathy")
どりょく ("Effort")

I don't think it matters what you select. Talk to her again and she'll offer
to fight with you against Lin, so say "yes". She will only join if you have
the Sumo Loincloths, so go repeat the fashion show if you don't have the
loincloths. If you do, then Joanjoan (じょんじょん) is now part of your
party. Go get her some equipment, and although her level and stats are very
low, you don't need to worry about leveling her up, she'll do fine in the
dungeon anyway.

Make your way to the second floor and you'll see Lin. Equip both of your
party with the Sumo Loincloths before talking to her. She'll be offended by
your appearance and a battle begins.

Boss: Lin (リン)
For some reason, your attacks will do a ton of damage (must be the
loincloths?) and the fight will only last one turn.

When you win, she agrees to treat men well, gives you the Parts 2 (パーツ2),
which are spaceship parts, and gives you the ID Card (アイディーカード). She
says to travel South to meet the next Aurora woman named Yun (ユン) who
controls that area. She says to get there by traveling through a cave located
South of the Coastal Village.

Don't forget to re-equip your better armor. Get back to the main part of town
and use the guy in the upper-left building to warp to Jioido (ジオイド). Go
West, past Metro City, to a strange looking rock located South of the Coastal
Village. Use the Truth Stone on it to reveal a cave.

---Caves South of Coastal Village--------------------------------------------
Treasures: 200 Gold, 100 Gold, Dokudami.

Head left through the cave and go through the exit at the end. You'll be on a
small island on the world map. Go into the next cave to the West.

Next Cave's treasures: 300 Gold, Junko, Onigiri.

Head West through the cave and you'll emerge on the world map on an icy
continent.

                           ==================

A Slainu blocks the entrance to the Live House. Talk to it and select
おおぼけ to get it to move. Inside the Live House, talk to the manager. He'll
tell you there are 3 more Live Houses on this continent and he wants you to
get Wisdom Tickets from the managers at each of those. Say "yes" to agree to
this and you'll receive the Name Card (めいし) and the System Disk
(システムディスク). Upstairs in the Live House you can get a Hi-Green
(ハイグリーン).

In a building on the left side of town, talk to one of the green devices
inside (use the "Talk" command) and pay a 500 Gold fee to receive the Data
Disk 1 (データディスク1). Only one of the devices will charge you the fee and
give you the disk. In the other towns of this continent, you will find
similar machines, and always only one will charge the fee and give you the
disk and you will want to find that one because you'll need the disks. You
need the System Disk to be able to use these green devices, by the way.

Back outside on the world map, follow the brick road leading South. It'll end
at some shrubbery, but just continue South and you'll find the road
continues. Go right at the fork to find a new town.

Another Slainu blocks the Live House here. This time, select the option
アリギリス to make it move. Inside the Live House, talk to the manager. He
will ask you some test questions. Select the answers: ミツグくん,
アッシーくん, and キープくん to pass his test. He will then give you the
Wisdom Ticket (ちせいのチケット). In the Live House basement you can find 500
Gold.

Talk to the guy inside the building above the Live House 3 times and he will
join your party. His name is Rekketsu (れっけつ). He is interested in helping
you restore the rights of men and seems to also be in love with Joanjoan.
Talk to one of the green devices here that will charge you a 500 Gold fee and
give you the Data Disk 3 (データディスク3).

Back outside on the world map, follow the brick road again and this time go
left at the fork. You'll come across another fork shortly, and go left at
that fork to come across another town.

 ------------------------------------------------------

The building near the entrance has the green devices inside it that you need
to talk to to pay the 500 Gold fee and receive the Data Disk 2
(データディスク2).

Get the Slainu blocking the Live House to move by selecting ビンベスト.
Inside the Live House, talk to the manager. He will then give you a test.
Select the answers カルちゃん, ママドル, and アグネズ to pass the test. He
then says that he won't give you the ticket unless you can find the Love
Sword, a treasure of this city, which was recently stolen. In the Live House
basement you can find a Bio Suit (バイオスーツ).

Go back out of this building. You can get to the back of this building by
going around the bottom part of it, through the opening in some trees, and
heading up the backside along the left side of the screen. There is a hidden
staircase here, located at the very upper-left section of the screen. There
is some ground that looks like dirt shaped like this:
X
XX
XX

The top right tile has a hidden staircase on it, but you can't stand on it to
find it. You have to stand one tile down from it, then use the Truth Stone to
make the stairs appear. It leads down to a cavern

---Puranzo (プランゾ) Cave---------------------------------------------------
Treasures: 500 Gold, Junko, 1000 Gold.

As you approach the treasure chest at the end of the cave, you will be
attacked by a boss, Shigeko (シゲコ). When you win, you get the Love Sword
(あいのつるぎ) and you learn the force power Don (ドン).

Return to the manager in the Live House. He will praise your effort to return
the Love Sword, and he allows you to keep it. He also gives you a Wisdom
Ticket (ちせいのチケット). So now you have two more to get.

There is an optional cave which you can get to by going Southeast from this
town and going into the raised green land. It contains the treasures: 250
Gold, Hi-Green, Onigiri, 300 Gold, 500 Gold.

Head back to Reshipi, the previous town that you had visited, and head a
little East to find a small village. Inside, talk to some people and hear
about a powerful bomb that was stolen.

A little Northeast of this town is a little peninsula jutting out to the
East. There is a cave at the end of it that you need to enter.

---Cave East of Reshipi------------------------------------------------------
Treasures: 500 Gold x2, Dokudami, Hi-Green.

Approach one of the treasures in the upper-left corner of the cave and you'll
be attacked by a boss, Uganda (ウガンダ). When you win you receive the
Happa-64 (ハッパ64), which is some sort of powerful bomb.

Next, you want to head to a town called Attic. It's directly South of
Puranzo, but mountains and boulders block your way there. To get there, you
have to go around the mountain ranges by going counterclockwise around the
mountains by first going Northeast, then following the outer rim of the
mountains, until you reach the West coast of the continent. You'll follow the
coast South, along the mountains, until you come to a region of raised green
plains, with the town inside that region. Along the way, you might see
another town to the North which you should ignore. If you were to enter that
town you would instantly die in an explosion.

In the lower-right corner of the town, you'll find a path leading behind one
of the buildings. Follow it and you'll find a Slainu blocking a door. Select
シシィーボーイ to get it to move. Inside, talk to the manager. He'll give you
another test. Select the answers: コビルくん, ツキノワオヤジ, and
カツラコゴロウ. When you pass the test, he'll give you the Wisdom Ticket
(ちせいのチケット) and the Faith Sword (まことのつるぎ). So now you have all
the Wisdom Tickets, yay! In the basement here, you can get an Onigiri.

Find the green device in this town that charges a 500 Gold fee and gives you
the Data Disk 4 (データディスク4).

Return to Ambient (アンビエンテ), the first town you visited on this
continent, and talk to the manager there to show him that you acquired all
of the tickets and he'll give you the Wisdom Ring (チエのわ).

Go back to the small village East of Reshipi. Enter the top building, go
downstairs, and talk to the old guy a couple times until he gives you the
Timer (タイマー).

Return to Attic. There is a cave beneath the town of Attic. To get there, go
back to the room with the green device that gives you the Data Disk 4. There
is a stairway in the lower-right corner of this room that will take you to
the cave.

---Attic Cave----------------------------------------------------------------
Treasures: 300 Gold x2, Cleats, Dokudami, Onigiri, Junko.

Make your way through the cave until you find Goro, the ugly guy that you
saved previously who was turned into a Slainu. Say "yes" to his question
about how you plan to confront Yun. From there, it doesn't matter which way
you go, you will find stairs leading to the room where Yun is.

When you find Yun, she gives you a test to test your intelligence. Don't
screw this up! If you fail, she will turn you into a Slainu and as far as I
could figure out, there is no way to change back to your correct form. She
will ask you which disks you found in which town. To answer correctly, select
the disks in the following order: 1, 3, 2, then 4. When you pass the test,
there is a bit of an argument about how she treats people she considers
stupid very cruelly, and she runs away.

Exit this cave to get back to the town part of Attic. Go around the back of
the building on the right via the hidden path in the lower-right corner of
the screen. Enter the building and go down the stairs inside. There is a
green door down there which you should go through that has a warp tile on the
other side. Step on the warp tile and you appear in a new area. This is the
town which is located at the North end of this continent, called Kings
Village, which I told you you would instantly die in if you entered through
the front entrance.

---Kings (キングス) Village--------------------------------------------------
Follow the linear path and you will come to a building with three sets of
stairs inside. Go down the stairs on the right. Follow the path and when you
emerge outside, enter the building above you. Go down the stairs inside and
step on the strange looking tile you see. Use the Happa-64 and the Timer and
an explosion will occur. You will appear on the world map near the location
you just bombed.

Enter Kings Village again. This time it's ok to enter via the front entrance.
Go up and open the treasure to get the My Women (オレのおんなたち) item.

Go all the way back to Attic and go down the cavern again to find Yun. Talk
to her and she will give you the Parts 3 (パーツ3) and the Hustle Sword
(ハッスルのつるぎ) without putting up a fight.

Head South from Attic to a border crossing area.

The towns on this continent are named after famous rock bands. Rolling
obviously refers to the Rolling Stones.

Enter the movie theater, located to the upper-left of the entrance, and talk
to a guy on the left side of the entrance to get the Ashita Key
(アシタのカギ).

Buy the Domul Ticket (ドムールチケット) in the building at the right side of
the town entrance. With it, you are able to enter the Live House where a
concert is about to start. Inside, you learn that Lun (ルン), the Aurora
woman who controls this area, is playing music that makes men stupid.

Enter the house in the Southeast corner of town. There is a little girl
inside. Talk to her and the adult in the room says to go away. Say "no"
(いいえ) and you'll engage in a battle which is super easy. When you win, the
little girl thanks you and says she is returning to her hometown at the
Southeast end of this continent.

On the world map, follow the brick path East. You can go North at the fork to
visit the town of Zeppeli, but you don't need to yet.

Zeppeli is a reference to the band Led Zeppelin. You will need to come to
this town later, but for now it only serves as a couple stores. Don't talk to
the guys down the stairs in the lower-right corner of town! If you do, say
"no" to his question, or else you will lose all of your money.

Instead of going North at the fork to get to Zeppeli, go South at that fork
and follow the brick road until you reach the town of Purple.

This town's name is a reference to the band Deep Purple. You can buy the
Quickfoot Boots here, which will make your party move really fast while
walking around if you have them equipped. Highly suggested, although
expensive.

Visit the house at the left of the entrance. It's the house of the girl you
helped in Rolling. Talk to her parents, then go explore the town and talk to
everyone. Return to the girl's house and she will now be there. Talk to her,
then talk to her parents and you should get the Caramel (キャラメル).

Next, you want to visit the town of Floyd. To get there, return to Rolling,
then head West along the brick path to find the town.

This town's name is obviously a reference to Pink Floyd.

Enter the building straight up from the entrance. Go upstairs and talk to the
old guy there. He recognizes the Caramel you brought as being from his old
friend. He tells you of an old capital city called Ashita and gives you the
Ancient Documents (こもんじょ) to help you find it.

There is a small village located West of Rolling, called Rainbow, which you
can visit, although there is no purpose in visiting it.

---Rainbow (レインボウ)------------------------------------------------------

 | Spirit Revival - 2000 |
 -------------------------

There was a band called Rainbow that Dio was a member of, so perhaps that's
the band referenced by this village's name? There's nothing valuable here
except for the spirit revival.

To find the old capital city Ashita, head Southeast from Rolling and enter
the mountain range to find a city inside the mountains.

---Ashita--------------------------------------------------------------------
Enter the building. You will be in an empty room. Use the Ancient Documents
and the Ashita Key. You will then be warped to a new area, which is the old
Ashita Capital. There is a Hi-Green located in the building on the right side
of the town.

At this point in the game, you are going to engage in a few tests to learn
what it is to be a man. Goro, the guy on the right side of the village
screen, will be guiding you. Talk to him and say "yes" to say that you want
power. He will give you an Election Cord (せんきょのたすき) and you will be
warped to Zeppeli.

In Zeppeli, enter the door on the left side of the screen and talk to the
person behind the counter. You automatically pay 2000 Gold to announce
yourself as running for mayor (if you don't have 2000 Gold, you'll need to go
make some money).

Outside, go down the stairs on the left side of town and talk to the
secretary and mayor. Next, go down the stairs in the lower-right corner of
town, which can only be reached by walking around the outside border of town,
starting from the lower-left and walking clockwise. Inside, talk to the guy
at the bottom of the room. He's some sort of mafia guy and he wants you to be
on his side. Answer "no" (いいえ) to his question. If you say yes, you will
lose all of your money. Talk to his two henchman afterward.

Back outside, go down the right stairs at the center of town and talk to the
person behind the counter. Then, go down the left stairs again outside and
talk to the secretary down there. Finally, go to the door on the left side of
town and talk to the person behind the counter. You are announced the winner
of the election and you are warped back to Ashita.

Go to the right side of the screen and talk to Goro. He gives you the Power
Staff (けんりょくのつえ) and says you can challenge Lun with it. You're then
warped to a new area outside of a Live House.

---Lun's Retreat------------------------------------------------------------
This new area is where Lun hangs out. Lun is in the building to the left.
If you like, you can enter the building on the right, which will lead to a
series of caves that ultimately takes you back to the main continent, just
Northwest of Rainbow. Along the way, you would find the following treasures:
2500 Gold, 1500 Gold, Hi-Green, 1000 Gold x2.

To continue the story, enter the left building and talk to Lun. You will
then fight a Domul (ドムール). Equip your main character with the Power Staff
(you can equip it during battle if you didn't beforehand). Have your main
character attack while your other members just guard or something. When you
win, Lun is not impressed by your qualities. She says you need brute
strength, she breaks your Power Staff, and you are warped back to Ashita. Go
to the left side of the screen see Goro. Talk to him, say "yes" you want
strength, and you are warped to a dungeon area.

Make sure you re-equip your main character with a good weapon. In this
cavern, you are only supposed to wander around and engage in random battles.
After you win a few random battles, you are warped back to Ashita and
declared successful in achieving brute strength. Talk to Goro to get the
Strength Fang (わんりょくのキバ). He says you should challenge Lun with it
and you are warped back to her retreat. Challenge he again. You fight a Domul
again, but this time you need to equip the Strength Fang to defeat him.

When you win, Lun is still not impressed. She says you need wealth, breaks
your Strength Fand, and you are warped back to Ashita. Talk to Goro at the
bottom-center of the screen and say "yes", you want wealth. He gives you the
Backroom Pass (ウラのしるし) and you are warped to a casino.

---Casino--------------------------------------------------------------------
The casino only consists of a dice game. You can talk to pretty much anybody
to play it. Here are the rules:

Move the coin symbol to the spot you want to bet on. The top amount on each
spot is the number of money you win when you win a dice roll. It is the
amount your initial bet is multiplied by. The bottom numbers on a bet spot
are the numbers you can roll to win the dice roll. Press "A" to select the
spot that the coin icon is pointing to. At the bottom of the screen is shown
your total money. After selecting a betting spot, you can quit by selecting
やめる ("Quit"), or you can choose かけきん ("Bet"). After selecting "Bet",
push up or down to change your bet value. The maximum bet is 500. Press "A"
again to roll the dice.

You goal is to get over 50000 Gold. This would be hard to do using the above
described game, but there is an easier way. There is a guy in the lower-left
corner of the casino blocking some stairs. Stand in front of him and use the
Backroom Pass. He will let you go into a back room. The back room also
features the above described dice game, but for some reason you always win!
Go talk to someone and bet 500 Gold on the highest payout spot, which is
rolling a 2. You'll be able to quickly get over 50000 Gold now that you
always win. You can get more if you like, so spend a little extra time and
rack up 90000 or so, then go back up the stairs.

Talk to the guy who guards the back room when you have over 50000 Gold and
he will take 50000 Gold from you, then you will be warped back to Ashita.

By the way, there is a cave on the West end of the casino island. You can go
through it to get the following treasures: 200 Gold, Onigiri, 300 Gold x2,
Hi-Green, 150 Gold.

Back in Ashita, talk to Goro at the bottom-center of the screen to get the
Money Assets (ざいりょくのかね).

You are warpped to Lun's Live House again. Equip the Money Assets and you
will fight the same Domul fight. When you win, she is still not impressed and
breaks your Money Assets. You are warpped back to Ashita.

Talk to Goro at the top of the screen and he sends you to take the final test
to become a man. You are warpped to the Rolling Live House. Talk to the guy
on the stage twice to get the Steel Pick (こうてつのピック). He says to go to
Purple Village, the town located to the far Southeast side of this continent.

In Purple, talk to the guy below the Live House, guarding the door to another
building. Use the Steel Pick and he will let you inside and says to take his
Hover Board and search South of the casino island.

After getting the Hover Board, go East from Purple, over the water, to run
into a new deserty-looking continent. Staying on the water, go around this
continent by following the coastline to the South, then go East when you can
until you get to the other side of the continent. Then continue a little
further East to find an island covered with green bushes. Land on this
island. It is the island South of the casino island that you were directed
to.

The island is covered in caves. In the caves, you can find the following
treasures:
Onigiri, 200 Gold, 1000 Gold x4, 1500 Gold x3, Junko x2, 2000 Gold x4,
Sparkling Synth, Beat Drum, Lightning Guitar, Dokudami, Flame Bass, Megalo
Suit.

Ultimately, you need to accumulate 4 musical instruments, which are:
Sparkling Synth (きらめきのシンセ), Booming Drum (とどろきのドラム),
Lightning Guitar (いなずまのギダー), and Flame Bass (ほのおのベース). When
you've collected all four, you are free to return to Rolling.

Go into the Rolling Live House and speak to the guy on stage again. He
commends you for aquiring the instruments and you all decide who should play
what instrument. Joanjoan claims the synthesizer, Nekketsu takes the drums,
and Goro shows up to play the bass. That leaves you to the guitar. Equip the
three musical items for your party members as weapons, then speak to the guy
on stage again and you play for him. He thinks it's great. When finished,
speak to him again. He'll ask if you want to play again. Say "no". He gives
you the Flame Bible (ほのおのバイブル) and sends you on your way to challenge
Lun again.

You are warped to Lun's Live House again. Enter and speak to Lun. You begin
a battle with three Domul this time. Note that Goro (ごろう) is now in your
party. Use the Flame Bible and you will automatically win this battle.

Lun appears and you begin a battle with her. When you defeat her you get the
Parts 4 (パーツ4), the Great Sword (おおいなるつるぎ) and you learn the force
power Zugo (ズゴ). Exit back to the world map by going through the building
on the right.

Min is at the gate. Speak to her and she'll taunt you a bit, then you can
enter the town.

Speak to the Live House manager and say "yes" to his question. He says you
will surely be defeated by Min's attack without something to protect you.
Under the Live House is a dungeon area that you need to enter.

---Meranje Dungeon-----------------------------------------------------------
Treasures: 2000 Gold, 1000 Gold.

A couple floors down you will come across Yan, the first Aurora woman you
met. Talk to her and you begin a one-on-one battle. Your attacks will do no
damage to her. To win, select まもる ("Defend"). She'll criticize you, saying
a real man continues to fight. You're then given the options:
おとこはたたかう - "A man fights."
おとこはたえる - "A man endures."

Select the second option two times and the fights ends. Yan cries, touched by
your spirit, and lends you some of her power.

Continue going down into the dungeon and you will come across Lin. Once
again, defend, then select the おとこはたえる option twice to end the battle
and gain Lin's support and power.

Exit to the world map. Follow the brick road and go left at the fork to find
another town. There is nothing to do in that town, however, so you can skip
it and go right at the fork instead.

Inside the dungeon, you'll eventually come across Yun. Talk to her to begin a
battle. During the battle, once again defend and select おとこはたえる two
times to get her to lend you her power. After this battle, continue further
into the dungeon to encouter Lun and repeat this process with her as well.

After getting Lun's power, return to the world map and continue South along
the brick path. When it ends, continue South through the graveyard and you'll
find that the brick path starts again. But don't follow it. Instead, go South
down the opening in the moutains that has another graveyard in it. After
going South enough, you will find the final town in the game.

Under the Spirit Revival shop is 1000 Gold.

There is a dungeon area under the Live House which you must enter. It
contains the treasures: Hi-Green x2, 5000 Gold, 2000 Gold, 1500 Gold x2,
Onigiri.

Make your way through the dungeon and you will eventually be warped to a new
area with a couple buildings in it. The building on the left is locked. Enter
the building on the right to find Min. Talk to her and defeat her in battle
to get the Parts 5 (パーツ5).

Go back outside and enter the left building. Talk to Goro twice to get the
Love Hadouhou (あいのはどうほう). You will see the five Aurora women in this
room. Talk to them all. Then you'll be warped to Ashita, where the spaceship
has appeared. Stand in front of the spaceship and use all 5 of the spaceship
parts. You then appear in the final dungeon.

---Final Dungeon-------------------------------------------------------------
Treasures: Spinach x2, Dokudami x2, Hi-Green x2, Onigiri.

This place is a bit maze-like, but there are no enemies so it's no problem to
get through. Make your way to the end of the dungeon to find the final boss,
Indra.

Boss: Indra (インドラ)
Your attacks won't do damage to him. Use the Love Hadouhou (あいのはどうほう)
with your main character each turn. When your character uses it, a list of
Aurora women names will appear:
ヤン (Yan)
リン (Lin)
ユン (Yun)
ルン (Lun)
ミン (Min)
Each turn, choose a woman's name from the list. Indra will be damaged by the
powers that the women lent you. I don't think it matters which woman you
choose. You could even do the same woman every turn. It takes about 7 turns
to win the battle. Your other party members can just defend each turn, or
they can heal if need be, since only your main character can use the Love
Hadouhou.

After you win, walk up to the door above you with a heart on it. "Talk" to
the door and you will release the imprisoned goddess.

Congratulations, you finally finished the game!
