3. About the Game
===================
Rokudenashi Blues is a manga about these high school students that fight each
other. That's all I know about the manga. However, I'm certain there's more to
than the manga than just guys fighting each other. The manga (as far as I am
aware) was only released in Japan.

In 1994, TOSE Co., Ltd., a secretive Japanese game developer programmed two
video games based on the manga; one of them for the Famicom (Japanese version
of the NES) and the Super Famicom (Japanese version of the SNES). While both
of these games are based off the same manga and developed/published by the
same companies (TOSE/Bandai), they are both completely different games. The
Famicom version which I will be walking you through is an action RPG, without
most of the things that make an RPG frustrating for me to play through. These
include;

* No huge @$$ overworld maps.
* Not too hard to figure out where to go.
* Each character has their own music, so it doesn't get too annoying.

===============
4. Characters
===============
There are four characters you can play as. I don't really know the anime and
Wikipedia didn't show a couple of these, so I'm not sure who they're
supposed to be.

前田 (Maeda = Taison Maeda)
千秋 (Chiaki = Chiaki Nanase)
小兵二 (Kohyoni)
中島 (Nakajima = Junichi Nakajima?)

==============
5. Locations
==============
There are many different locations you can go to. Most of these don't have a
real purpose.

マンション (Mansion = Save your game)
コンビニ (Conve - Convenience Store = Item shop)
公園 (Park)
タツノコ (Tatsunoko = Training hall)
商店街 (Mall)
駅 (Station)
帝拳高校 (Teiken High School)
病院 (Hospital = Heal character)

================
6. Walkthrough
================
=====================
WALKTHROUGH (MAEDA)
=====================
The main objective in this game (at least in order to beat it) is to win all
of the fights scattered throughout the game (whilst running around some other
places as well). This file will guide you through the game in order to beat
it. There are four characters you can play as, but Maeda is the main part of
the game. The other three are thrown in as bonuses, I guess to add to the
replay value.

=============
CHAPTER ONE
=============

1. Go to the mall (商店街). Walk all the way to the end. You will see a blue
door. Go into it. Follow the corridor into the restaurant (or whatever it
is supposed to be, maybe an arcade?) Talk to the main at the bottom and a
fight will start. To talk to him, walk up next to him and press A. Choose
the first option (はなしかける). This is how you will talk to everyone else
in the game.

2. After you've won the fight, you will see a passage that goes down. A man
will be standing near the passage. Take that passage down. Talk to the
man you see in the hallway and a fight will start. Now leave the mall.
Do this by going down the stairs near where you just had the battle. Then
take the next passage down.

3. Go to the Teiken High School (帝拳高校). I will simply call it High School
throughout the rest of this guide. Before you can do anything, you will
get into a fight. You can choose one of three replies (the third one
avoids the fight.)
After the fight, go into the school by entering the gap between the two
blue double doors. This is the main entrance and I will assume you enter
and leave through this entrance throughout this guide.
Go to the end of the hall and there will be a passage leading downward. Go
down the passage. Now there will be three different passage to choose from;
a passage leading downward, to the right, and stairs going up. Take the
passage on the right and enter the first classroom. When you enter there
will be two men and two women. Talk to the woman at the top. She has a
ponytail. After talking to her, go back out the main doors and go to the
left. There will be a man and a woman. Talk to the man. Now go back into
the school and go to the top level. To do this, go inside the school, go
down the hallway and down. Now go up the two flights of stairs.
Now a fight will start. After you win, you will be given two replies to
choose from. I choose the first one, but I don't know if the second choice
will affect anything down the road. After that, talk to the three guys
there. Now leave the school. Before you do, a girl will approach you.
Again, I pick the first reply. In the future when you're given reply
choices, I ALWAYS choose the first one, so you should probably, too. After
this, do not leave the school yet.

4. Go to the right side of the school and there will be four doors, with the
leftmost one guarded by a man. Talk to the man. After that go back into
the school and talk to every single person in there. Maybe you only need
to talk to certain people, but it seems I have to talk to every single
person in order for the man to leave the door he is guarding. If anyone
knows how to get him to leave the door exactly, please send me an e-mail.
If you talk to everyone and he's still there, talk to everyone inside the
school again. He should be gone then.
Anyway, go into the door he was guarding (the leftmost one) and a fight
will start.
After finishing the fight, try to leave the school. At the gates there
will be a man. Talk to him.

5. Go to the mall (商店街). You will see stairs going down and near it blue
double doors. Go inside the double doors and there will be a cutscene.
Now you will be returned to the map and the music will be all spooky!

6. Go to the high school (帝拳高校). When you get there, go back to that
leftmost door on the right side of the school. You will be taken to a long
cutscene which will run into a fight. After you win the fight, you get
another long cutscene. Your character will wind up at the mansion. Save
your game if you want.

7. Go to the high school (帝拳高校) again. Now enter the school. Go down the
hallway and you'll see that guy at the end of the hall again. Talk to him
and a fight will start.

8. Now, go to the second floor of the school and go to the hallway on the
left. Enter the third room and talk to the woman. After that, leave the
entire high school and go to the mall (商店街). There will be a man there
at your entry. Talk to him and then go back to the high school (帝拳高校).
Before you can do anything, you will get into a fight.

9. Go to the high school (帝拳高校) and go to the top floor again. This time,
talk to the man on the left (there will be another man standing right next
to him.) After that, leave the high school and go to the station (駅). At
your entry, you will see a blue door on the right of the screen. Go into
the door for another fight. After winning the fight, you are brought back
to the mansion once again.

10. Now you will go to another city. Go to the high school (帝拳高校). After
entering the school, go down the hallway and go down the path at the end.
You'll be back where the stairs are. Go right. You'll be in another hall.
Enter the first blue double doors. There should be a woman in blue in the
top-left corner and a green guy on the bottom right upon entering. Talk to
the man. You will get a lengthy cutscene and after that, you will wind up
in a different place.

=============
CHAPTER TWO
=============

Before we go on, here's a translation of the places in the new town:

ゲーセン (Arcade)
コンビニ (Convenience Store)
ホテル (Hotel)
公園 (Park)
レストラン (Restaurant)
ゲーセン２ (Arcade 2)
駅 (Station)
病院 (Hospital)
倉庫 (Warehouse)
きっさてん (Cafe)

1. You'll start at the station. Go down the right staircase that goes down,
and talk to the man at the bottom. Now leave the station and go to Arcade 2
(ゲーセン２) and you will get a cutscene. Go to the park (公園) for another
cutscene. Go to the Arcade (ゲーセン) for yet another cutscene. Finally,
choose to go to the arcade again and go down the staircase which leads
into the bathroom. You will approach a man urinating which leads to a
fight.

2. Go to the warehouse (倉庫). You will get a cutscene which leads to a fight.
Then after the fight you will get another cutscene. A long one, too. Then
you will end up back in the first town.

===============
CHAPTER THREE
===============

1. You will be at the station. Leave and go to the mall (商店街). Go right
until you see the blue double doors (just over the man you see when you
first enter the town.) There will be a cutscene. Now go to the station
(駅). When you get there, go up the stairs on the left and talk
to the three guys at the top. Now leave and go to the mall (商店街). Go
into the first set of blue double doors which go to the restaurant. You
will get a cutscene. Now leave the restaurant and go to the left of the
mall where you just entered. Now go down the stairs and you will get a
cutscene which leads to a fight. After winning the fight you'll be taken
back to the mansion.

2. Go to the high school (帝拳高校) and go to the second floor of the school.
When you get there, go into the left hallway and enter the last room. Then
talk to the teacher. Now go outside the school and to the left of the
school and there will be a man. Talk to him. After talking to him, he will
leave.
Now go back into the school and go to the second floor. Then go to the right
hallway and go into the first blue double doors. There will be three other
guys in there. Talk to the one at the top. Then they will all be gone. Now
go outside of the school. Near the main entrance will be five guys. Walk
between the top two guys and a cutscene will begin. Now once again, go
back into the school and go to the second floor. This time take the left
hallway. Go into the third classroom (the blue double doors). Inside, talk
to student/teacher (not sure what she is exactly). Now once again, exit the
school. And once again... go to the left of the school. You will see a man
lying on the ground. Talk to him. After that, go back to the second floor
of the school and go to the right hallway. Enter the first classroom. At
your entrance there will be a man next to you and another man sitting in
one of the desks. Talk to the guy sitting in the desk. After that, leave
the classroom and go to the top floor. You will get into a fight. After
winning, you get a cutscene and are once again returned to the mansion.

3. Go to the station (駅). When you get there, attempt to go inside the blue
door on the right. You will be approached by a woman. This will lead to a
VERY long cutscene. After that, you are now in a new city.

==============
CHAPTER FOUR
==============
Now you will be in a new city. Again, before we start, I'll translate the
places you can go to:

病院 (Hospital)
雷門 (Raimon)
ゲーセン１ (Arcade 1... they actually put a 1 here this time!)
きっさてん (Cafe)
ゲーセン２ (Arcade 2)
中央公園 (Central Park)
ホテル (Hotel)
駅 (Station)
あずま (Azuma. There is a kanji next to it but I can't read it.)
西公園 (West Park)
コンビニ (Convenience Store)

1. You will start off at the station. Talk to the man that you see on screen.
Now the music will change. To get out of the station, go down and take the
stairs on the left.

2. Go to the central park (中央公園). You will get into a fight. After winning
the fight, leave the park.

3. Go to Arcade 1 (ゲーセン１). Again like the park, you'll get into a fight
before you can do anything. After winning the fight you will get a cutscene
which will take you to the docks.

4. Leave the docks and go to the cafe (きっさてん). Talk to the man that's near
you. After that, go to Arcade 1 (ゲーセン１). You will get a cutscene but no
fight. Leave the arcade. Now you will get a new choice on the map screen;
Apartment (アパート). Go there and you will get a cutscene. Now leave the
apartment and go to the cafe again (きっさてん). Talk to the same man you
talked to last time. Now go to the docks (あずま) for the final battle.
After you've won the battle, that's it! You've completed Rokudenashi Blues!
Now watch the ending and ending credits. Wait a minute... credits in a game
developed by TOSE? That's odd...

=======================
WALKTHROUGH (SENSHUU)
=======================

This is probably the easiest (and shortest) part of the game. It all takes
place in the school. There's no fights either, just cutscenes. Probably the
easiest game you'll ever play at this point.

=============
CHAPTER ONE
=============

1. You start out at the school. There will be two men above you. Ignore them
for now and go through the huge gap between the two blue doors to enter the
school. Go to the end of the hall and walk down into the next room. Go
right into the next hallway. Enter the first classroom and talk to the
woman in front of you. Now go back outside to where the game started and
talk to the man on the right. Select the first option.

2. Go back inside the school. Once again go down the hallway and go down the
passage at the end of it. This time, go up the stairs. Then try to go up
the next set of stairs and you will be taken to a cutscene. Again, choose
the first option when you are given the two choices. Then you will
end up in front of the left door on the right side of the school.

3. Go back inside the school. This time, I'm going to show you a different way
inside the school. From where you're standing at the door, go down, then go
left, and take the first passage up. Now enter the door and you will be at
the fork; the left passage, the stairs, or the right passage. Take the
passage to the right. Enter the first classroom and talk to the man on the
top right of the screen. You will be given two different replies to choose
from. They both affect your ending, but I don't know if it's in a negative
or positive way. If you choose the second one, that's it. If you choose the
first response, try to leave the high school after talking to the man. To
leave the high school, go back to where you started the game and walk down.
There will be a passage with a black gate on each side.
Before you can leave, you will be taken to a cutscene. Again, you can
choose a reply which affects your ending. The second reply not only gives
you a different cutscene, but the credits are in a black background instead
of a light blue background. The first reply ends up with the credits being
in a blue background and happier music, so I assume that's the good ending.

=======================
WALKTHROUGH (KOHYONI)
=======================
(Note: If someone out there can help me, I always get a bad ending for this
character. Maybe you're supposed to, but since the other characters have
good endings, I assume this character should, too.)
=============
CHAPTER ONE
=============

1. You will start out in the mall. Walk all the way to the right and enter the
very last passage, some stairs leading down. In the next room, just go down
into the next room. Now go left and take the stairs going up. You will see
a man guarding a blue door. Talk to him and a fight will start. After you
win that fight, another one will start.

2. Go back down the stairs and take the passage at the bottom to leave the
station. Now choose to go to the mall (商店街). At your entry, go down the
set of stairs on screen. Now you will get in a fight. After winning the
fight, you will get a cutscene and eventually wind up at the station in
the second town.

=============
CHAPTER TWO
=============

1. Go down and you will see there are stairs on the left. Take them and you
will be on the map screen. Choose to go to Arcade 1 (ゲーセン１). Before
you can do anything you will get a cutscene which leads to a fight.

2. After that, go to the docks (あずま) and the final battle will start after
a long cutscene. During this cutscene, you will be given two replies. The
first one goes to the final fight, the second one gives you a bad ending.
If you finish the final battle, it seems to lead to a bad ending. I don't
know what you're supposed to do to get a good ending or if there even is a
good ending, but at least you get the ending credits.

========================
WALKTHROUGH (NAKAJIMA)
========================
=============
CHAPTER ONE
=============

1. You will start out in a classroom in the school. Leave the room and go down
to the first level of the school. You can do this by simply going down once
you leave the classroom. You will then be in a room with a couple
staircases. When you depart the stairs you just came
down from, take the left passage and enter the right door. You will get a
cutscene.

2. Go back up to the second level of the school and take the left hallway.
You will be back near the room you started the game in. Now go through the
third door and talk to the woman inside it. Now leave the classroom and the
hallway. Go up the stairs to the top of the school and you'll get another
cutscene. Select the first option.

3. Now go back to the first floor and take the right hallway. Go inside the
second classroom and talk to the woman. Now exit the classroom and go
inside the classroom on the far right (last room). You can choose which
ever choice you want, as it will lead to the next reply choices. Here, the
first choice will give you the good ending, and the second reply will give
you the bad ending.

7. FAQ
========
Note: Some of these questions are not very important/relevant and have been
added just in case.

Q: How may I contact you?
A: My e-mail can be located at the top of this guide. I also have accounts all
over the internet known as Doommaster1994.

Q: I have information I'd like to contribute to your guide. How do I do so?
A: Send me an e-mail. I'll look it over, and if your information helps, it
will not only be added to my guide, but I'll give you full credit for it.

Q: Where can I find a ROM for this game?
A: Due to the rules on GameFAQs and for legal reasons, I cannot tell you.

Q: Okay, then. Can you send me the ROM image then, please?
A: No! If you ask me this, you will be blocked by me. Again, for legal
reasons, I cannot help you in this matter.

Q: Fine, what about a physical copy of the game?
A: I believe I can answer this question. Check your local game stores (if
they sell imports) or eBay will be your best bet.

Q: Do you own a physical copy of the game?
A: Yes. I have recently made a policy that I will only make walkthroughs on
games that I own. Of course, I will bend the rules for some games.

Q: What does Rokudenashi Blues translate to?
A: Google Translate says Rokudenashi is "b@$t4rd" and Wikipedia says it's
"Good-For-Nothing", so I assume it's just an insult word. Blues is an
English word, usually known as a type of musical style, but also depicts
sadness.

Q: I hate the school sections since I have to go through every room and talk
to ever person. Is there a way to get around this?
A: I think so. I think you are supposed to only talk to certain people, but I
don't know how exactly.

Q: I thought you normally hate RPGs. Why did you bother playing through this
game?
A: Because I didn't think anyone else would. Also, there's not a huge
overworld map like most other RPGs. You just select from a few locations,
and even then, there are a few you don't need to go to unless you need
health or have to power up.

Q: Do you speak Japanese?
A: I can't speak it, but I can read hiragana and kanji, and can only translate
katakana. I can translate a little bit of hiragana and kanji, but not much.

Q: What do you like best about this game?
A: That this is actually a pretty simple RPG to play through. There's no huge
overworld map.

Q: What about what you like the least?
A: It's an RPG...
Also, the school sections since I don't know who I'm supposed to talk to
to trigger the events. It's tedious.

Q: All of the game's developers use aliases in the credits. What are their
real names?
A: I only know the composer Mitsuto.K is Mitsuto Suzuki. TOSE (the developer)
did not believe in giving credit to their staff, and when they did, they
used aliases to prevent other companies from hiring them.

Q: Is there really a guy on the cartridge giving the middle finger?
A: Yes, there is. The guy in the middle to be exact.

Q: How do you know TOSE developed the game? Their name isn't anywhere in the
game.
A: That's because TOSE was a secretive company. Many online sources prove that
TOSE is indeed the developer.

Q: The graphics in this game look like the Dragon Ball Z games on Famicom.
A: That's because TOSE developed them, so they probably had the same graphic
staff with them.

Q: Was this the last Famicom game ever made?
A: No, I believe Wario's Woods (Wario no Mori in Japan) holds that record.
However, this game WAS one of THE last games made, being released in
October 1993, ten years after the Famicom was released.

Q: Hello, we are (video game site).com. May we use your guide on our website?
A: If you want to use my guide on your website, I simply ask that you contact
me.
