| [01] INTRODUCTION                                                          |
O============================================================================O

Sukeban Deka III [スケバン刑事?], literally translates to "Delinquent Girl
Detective III", is an Action game made by TOEI Animation released on January
22nd, 1988 for the cost of 5,565 Yen ($61.00 USD) for the FamiCom.  You play
the roles of the three Kazama sisters:  Yui, the youngest sister, who fights
with a metal yo-yo and assumes the identity as the 3rd Sukeban Deka, codename
"Saki Asamiya"; eldest sister, Yuka, who fights with metal origami cranes; and
middle sister, Yuma, who fights with lily yarn needles.  Your goal is to solve
Shou's curse and bring down the evil Koji Kashin.

Sukeban Deka III was never released outside of Japan.  As of February 2010,
no known English patch was released for this game.  Therefore everything
written in this guide are from my own translations.  I am not fluent in
Japanese and what's provided are translated to the best of my knowledge, any
corrections on my translations are most welcomed!  I have also included the
Japanese text, so please encode this document in "Japanese (Shift-JIS)" to be
able to view it.

There are unmarked spoilers in this document.  I written this in a way to
allow the player to experience the most fulfillment out of this game without
skipping any cutscenes or events.  I hope you enjoy playing this game as much
as I did!

  she knows the least amount of Ninja Arts.

  more Ninja Arts than Yuma, but not as much as Yuka's.

  defeat the final boss.

A time where amongst the shining stars, shadows are squirming in the darkness.
These dark shadows call themselves the "Kage" and their plan is to take
control over Japan.  When the stars began to sparkle, it signaled the "Kage"
to make their move and they called upon their footmen, the concealed "Kusa",
to carry out their orders.  Shirei Kurayami of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police
Department dispatched the Fuuma Ninja Group to handle this situation.  The
warrior of the Fuuma Ninja Group is Yui Kazama, the successor of the title of
Saki Asamiya and the 3rd Sukeban Deka.  Along with her two older sisters, Yuka
(Eldest) and Yuma (Middle).  Together, they are the three Kazama sisters.  In
order to defeat the mysterious "Kage" and reveal its true identity, the girls
must fight!  Yui's yo-yo is about to explode!  "Shaddap!  I'm the true 3rd
Sukeban Deka!!"

| [05] CHAPTER I:  TOWN [まち]                                               |
O============================================================================O

Your goal is to gather information from the telephone booths...

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | LEVEL GAINING                                                    |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

When you first start the game, at the "Choose A Person" [ひとのえらびかた]
menu, select "Yuka Kazama" [風間 結花] as your character.  In order to reach
our next destination, Yuka needs to be at LV 05 so she can learn the "Ninja
Art" [にんぽう], "Art of Flight" [ひこうのじゅつ].  Make sure to not fall into
any fountains or rivers, or the sister will die immediately.  Also do note
that the sister's HP is displayed on the top left corner of the screen.

Start by killing any Aboveground Kusa, the footmen in purple with pink hair,
in your path.  The best way to level up is go to the building above your
starting location and stay on the right edge of the building.  As long as you
stand here, most of the Aboveground Kusa should keep approaching to the right
where you can just attack them and rack up your EX.  There may be a few stray
ones that will approach from below, but just hit them as they come.

I recommend leveling all three sisters at the same time, so that their LVs are
all the same.  You should be set once all three sisters are at LV 05.  In
addition to the Aboveground Kusa, you may encounter some Sky Kusa, footmen
dressed in green.  There will also be arrows randomly firing around you, try
to avoid these as best as you can.  If the enemies are becoming a nuisance, if
Yuka or Yui are at LV 04, they can cast "Sleep Paralysis" [かなしばり] to stop
enemy movements for 10 seconds.  Just make sure to conserve your NP.

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | GATHERING INTEL FROM THE TELEPHONE BOOTHS                        |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

Choose "Yuka Kazama" [風間 結花] if you haven't already.  Keep traveling east
until you spot a "Chain Mail" [くさりかたびら], a red mesh armor, on the
ground.  It will be south of the fourth fountain you pass from the top.  Yuka
or Yuma will automatically pick it up if you walk over it.

Now it is time for Yui to gather information from the telephone booths.  Head
south from where you picked up the "Chain Mail" [くさりかたびら] and there is
a telephone booth.  Step over it and switch to "Yui Kazama" [風間 唯].  At
the "Item, Ninja Arts, Arms Option" [あいてむ,にんぽう,ぶきのせんたく], select
the "Telephone Card" [てれほんかーど] under "Items" [あいてむ].  You will get
a message from Shirei Kurayami [暗闇指令], the creator of the Sukeban Deka
Project:

           "Without the Insulated Suit, you will be in trouble..."

Head east from the telephone booth and make the first right on the street.
Keep heading south, past the fountain, and you should see the second telephone
booth.  Use the "Telephone Card" [てれほんかーど] for this message:

                 "Shou dwells in the Spatiotemporal Fortress
                          and the Aboveground Chief
                           dwells in Hell Valley.
                   Yuka and Yuma are useless against them,
                     it is up to Yui to confront them."

Now go back north to the main street above and go west.  You will have to
manuever inbetween buildings and fences, marked by the brown cobblestone.  You
eventually get to a point to where you will pass some street markers and there
is a fountain with a Mannekin Pis to the very right edge, go south and go west
toward the telephone booth surrounded by a stone wall.  Use the "Telephone
Card" [てれほんかーど] at the third telephone booth for this message:

           "Yui, Yuka, Yuma!  This is Shirei Kurayami, No. 00256.
                   The Fuuma's longtime enemy, the 'Kage',
                        are placing a curse on people
               and controlling them to their heart's desires.
             Seiryu High School are already under their control.
                     We must destroy the shadows' plans!
                           Go, 3rd Sukeban Deka!"

Now go south and follow the crosswalk south.  Then go east and follow the two
crosswalks east.  After some gardens, you should see the fourth telephone
booth.  Use the "Telephone Card" [てれほんかーど] for this message:

                      "According to ancient traditions,
                 it appears you can use the 'Revive Scroll'
                           to rescurrect the dead.
                     Search every nook and cranny in the
             Town, Caves, and Spatiotemporal Fortress for them."

Afterward, go south and go east on the main street.  You should eventually see
some red "Kunoichi Kneepads" [くのいちのひざあて] in the middle of the street.
Switch to "Yuka Kazama" [風間 結花] or "Yuma Kazama" [風間 由真] and walk
over it to automatically to pick it up.  I would suggest to give this to the
sister who doesn't have the "Chain Mail" [くさりかたびら], so that both
sisters have a protective gear that adds + 010 to their DP.

Now go south of the "Kunoichi Kneepads" [くのいちのひざあて] and head a bit
west for the fifth telephone booth.  Switch to "Yui Kazama" [風間 唯] and use
the "Telephone Card" [てれほんかーど] for this message:

                           "The technique you need
                       to master is the Art of Flight.
                    From thereon, I advise you use Saki."

Now keep going east and at the end, you should come across a "Revive Scroll"
[そせいのまきもの] in the middle of the street.  This is one of the locations
of the "Revive Scrolls" [そせいのまきもの] that Kurayami mentioned.  I suggest
giving this to the sister you mainly use, in this case Yuka or Yui.  So if
that sister dies, she will automatically be revived with 010 HP.

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | MASTERING THE ART OF FLIGHT                                      |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

If you remember what Kurayami said, he said that Yuka will need to learn the
"Art of Flight" [ひこうのじゅつ].  If you haven't done so already, switch to
"Yuka Kazama" [風間 結花] and make sure she is at LV 05, so she will learn
the "Art of Flight" [ひこうのじゅつ].  The best way to level up here is to go
west and go up the side of the first building you come across.  Place yourself
in between the garden and the building, where you are facing the middle street
marker.  As long as you stay here, you can jump over the shurikens thrown at
you and none of the arrows should hit you.

Once Yuka is at LV 05, position yourself just above the shore of the river to
the south of where you are at.  Then at the "Item, Ninja Arts, Arms Option"
[あいてむ,にんぽう,ぶきのせんたく], press the Select button and choose "Art of
Flight" [ひこうのじゅつ] under "Ninja Art" [にんぽう] by pressing the A
button.  You know you have done it correctly if you used up 007 NP.  Then
press the Start button to exit the menu.  Now press and hold the B button,
then tap the A button.  If done correctly, Yuka should levitate above the
ground.  Since this Ninja Art only lasts for 10 seconds, quickly hover across
the river.  You can also change your sister after using this Ninja Art, and
Yuma and Yui too will be levitating above the ground.

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | THE FINAL INTEL FROM SHIREI KURAYAMI                             |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

Now you can safely land on the other side of the river, travel south and head
west on the main street.  You will come across the sixth and final telephone
booth.  Switch to "Yui Kazama" [風間 唯] and use the "Telephone Card"
[てれほんかーど] for this message:

                        "Use the Receiver if you are
                          at a place marked by a X"

Keep traveling west, and eventually you will automatically fall down into the
next stage.  The sisters should be around LV 05 to LV 08.

O============================================================================O
| [06] CHAPTER II:  ILLUSIONARY FOREST [げんまのもり]                        |
O============================================================================O

Many dangers lurk in the woods...

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | "X" MARKS THE SPOT                                               |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

You can always travel back to Town by exiting to the west, and you will end up
near the entrance to the Illusionary Forest in the southern part of Town.
Also Yuka will no longer know how the "Art of Flight" [ひこうのじゅつ] in her
"Ninja Art" [にんぽう].

Immediately you will get attacked by some Underground Kusa, footmen wearing
conical hats, who can freely move through underground and underwater.  If Yuka
or Yui is at LV 08, they can use "Art of Freeze" [とうけつのじゅつ] to prevent
them from doing that.  Also use the tree branches to your advantage, and the
sister will die immediately if they fall into the water below.

Travel east and you will eventually see a "Fuuma Charm" [ふうまのおまもり] in
your path.  Switch to "Yuka Kazama" [風間 結花] or "Yuma Kazama" [風間 由真]
to automatically pick it up.  From here on, make sure that Yuka has at least
one free spot available in her inventory.  Each sister can only carry up to
a maximum of six items.

Then you should see some white rock-like objects on the ground, these are land
mines and they will explode if a sister happens to step on it.  Try to jump
over them or use the tree branches to avoid them.  Also by this time, black
orbs will fall from the trees and try to hit you much like the arrows in Town.

As you travel further east, the Underground Kusa will be replaced with Sky
Kusa.  And there are also sword hilts sticking out of the ground, which
slightly resemble candles, avoid them like you would with land mines.   You
will eventually come across some "Kotarou's Clothes" [こたろうのふく] amongst
the tree branches.  Let Yuka or Yuma pick it up, I suggest giving it to the
sister who doesn't have the "Fuuma Charm" [ふうまのおまもり].  Remember to
leave one item spot available for Yuka!

And not too far east, you should see a black object with a "X" on it.  This is
the "place marked by a 'X'" that Kurayami mentioned.  Switch to "Yuka Kazama"
[風間 結花] and use the "Receiver" [じゅしんき] to receive a message from
Han'nya [般若].  A Cabinet agent assigned to watch over the Kazama sisters who
disguised himself as their high school teacher, Kazuya Yoda [依田一也]:

                         "Defeat Mahara in the Caves
                    and the Aboveground Chief who appears
                               in Hell Valley.
                            Upon defeating them,
                     the mysterious Shou will come out."

You may come across more "X" marks, but ignore them as they all carry the
exact same message from Han'nya above.

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | THE PROTECTORS OF THE ILLUSIONARY FOREST                         |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

Past the second "X" mark, the Sky Kusa are replaced with the Aboveground Kusa.
Fight them while avoiding the land mines on the ground.  You should see what
looks like two white dots above the second pit of water.  These are "Marbles"
[びーだま], an Arm upgrade.  If you are still playing as Yuka, she can pick
these up.  However if Yuka cannot pick them up, you might have to drop an item
from her inventory.  Now equip them on her in the menu under "Arm" [ぶき].

You'll come across the third "X" mark, there is a "Battle Needle" [じんぱち]
just above the second sword hit.  Switch to "Yui Kazama" [風間 唯] and pick
it up.  Keep traveling east and you will eventually have to fight the boss of
this area, the red-clad Kunoichi.  You can proceed on ahead once you defeat
her, and you should come across a "Hand Cover" [てっこう] for Yui.

Continue to fight the Aboveground Kusa and jumping over the land mines.  Then
you should see what appears to be a speckled ball amongst some stumps.  This
is an Arm upgrade for Yuma, the "Ball and Chain" [くさりだま].  Switch to
"Yuma Kazama" [風間 由真] to pick it up.  Equip them on her in the menu under
"Arm" [ぶき].

Then on the fourth "X" mark is the second boss, the tengu-like Sky Chief.  The
Sky Chief shoots out red spiked bullets and if the sister gets into contact
with it, they will briefly levitate.  It is quite annoying and after defeating
him, watch his cute death animation.

Now you can make your way to the next destination.  The sisters should be
around LV 08 to LV 10.

O============================================================================O
| [07] CHAPTER III:  HELL VALLEY [じごくだに]                                |
O============================================================================O

It is time to battle the Aboveground Chief that dwells here...

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | CROSSING THE BRIDGES                                             |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

This entire stage is completely straightforward.  Just keep heading east and
attack any enemies in your path.  Since Kurayami mentioned that Yuka and Yuma
are useless against the bosses here, I suggest switching to "Yui Kazama"
[風間 唯] for this stage.  In this area, you will be mainly fighting the
Aboveground Kusa and dodging the flying arrows.  Make sure to not fall off the
cliffs or the sister will immediately die.

Further east you'll end up reaching some rickety bridges.  Make sure to not
fall off them or the sister will immediately die.  If the enemies are giving
you problems use Yui's "Sleep Paralysis" [かなしばり] to stop the enemies for
10 seconds.  If she is around LV 11, then Yui can also use "Art of Defense"
[ぼうぎょのじゅつ] which makes her invincible for 10 seconds.  Also if any of
the sisters are at LV 13, they can use the "Art of Healing" [ふくげんのじゅつ]
to replenish any lost health.  It only restores their HP to 050, regardless of
how much HP they have.  So only use it when their HP is below 050.

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | THE PROTECTORS OF HELL VALLEY                                    |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

After crossing the bridges, you will meet with one of the bosses of this area,
Manjibou, a man sporting a crew cut.  Switch to "Yui Kazama" [風間 唯] in
order to deal damage to him.  Dodge his bou staff attacks and when he falls,
he will drop a red, circular "Tungsten Yo-Yo" [じゅうごうきんよーよー] for
Yui.  This Arm upgrade won't show up in your inventory and it will still be
labeled as "Yo-Yo" [よーよー], but now Yui will deal more damage.

If you recalled what Kurayami and Han'nya mentioned previously, this is the
area where you will be facing the Aboveground Chief.  Just keep heading east
and you'll come face-to-face with the guy himself.  Switch to "Yui Kazama"
[風間 唯] in order to deal damage to him.  The Aboveground Chief mainly
attack by breathing fire, he will also walk offscreen toward the right and
reappear again to the left. Once he is defeated, continue forward to the east.

You will meet up with another Aboveground Chief.  Switch to "Yui Kazama"
[風間 唯] in order to deal damage to him.  Defeat him and you can now enter
your next destination.  The sisters should be around LV 10 to LV 15.

O============================================================================O
| [08] CHAPTER IV:  CAVES [どうくつ]                                         |
O============================================================================O

Don't be afraid of the dark...

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | NAVIGATE THE DARKNESS                                            |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

These caves are pitch-black and it may be hard to navigate through this
darkness.  This is where Yuma finally becomes useful, switch to "Yuma Kazama"
[風間 由真].  If she is at LV 07, she can use the "Ninja Art" [にんぽう],
"Art of Flash" [せんこうのじゅつ] to lit dark areas for 10 seconds.  But if
you can level her up to LV 09, she will learn "Entrap Darkness" [やみふうじ]
which will completely lit this area until you exit this stage.  Then you can
switch to the other sisters if you wish.  There are also some players who
claim to see better in the darkness, so choose whatever suits you.

You will come face with some Underground Kusa, let Yuka or Yui use "Art of
Freeze" [とうけつのじゅつ] to prevent them from freely moving around.  Keep
traveling east, you'll now see the Aboveground Kusa and there are land mines
on the ground.

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | A FORK IN THE PATH                                               |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

There is a fork in your path when the ceiling above changes to stalactites.
You have the option to go east or south, for now continue east.  You may have
to drop to the smaller, circular rock platform below the large platform, then
use that to jump over to the eastern ledge.  Timing your jumps is key in this
area.  There is a red padded armor up ahead, switch to "Yuma Kazama"
[風間 由真] and pick up the "Insulated Suit" [ぜんつえんすーつ].  This suit
is not useful to us now, but it will help us out in our next location.

Continue east while dodging the arrows flying at you, then fall down at the
ledge and hug the left wall.  The enemies will now change to Sky Kusa for this
area.  Ignore any paths to the east because it'll lead you around in a circle.
There is a passage to the west, but there is a chance that you may fall into
the pit below.  Just manuever your way up and time your jumps carefully.  If
you can master the rolling kick, it'll help you out greatly here.

At the western passage, keep going straight and you should see a small alcove
to the northwest which you can jump to.  Go to the very end of the left wall
and a "Restoration Scroll" [ふくげんのまきもの] will appear.  I suggest giving
this to the sister you mainly use, such as Yui.

Now make your way back to the fork in the path where the stalactites are at.
Go south and hug the left wall, there is another western passage we need to go
through.  Again, if you fall down into the pit below, just make your way back
up and time your jumps.

The enemies may change into Aboveground Kusa for a bit before you fight one of
the bosses of this area, the hunchbacked Underground Chief.  He likes to dig
through the walls and tries to ambush you.  Dodge his deadly bearhugs and when
he is defeated, you can continue onward.

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | MAHARA AND HIS CLONES                                            |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

Follow the straightforward path southeast, eventually the Aboveground Kusa
will now change back into Sky Kusa.  Then as you travel east, the Sky Kusa
will briefly change into Aboveground Kusa when you enter a room in the caves.
This is Mahara's Room and as it implies, the dark samurai Mahara [魔破羅]
dwells here.  Mahara's true form is actually Yuka's and Yuma's father, Kogenta
Kazama [風間小源太].  Mahara is a master at the "Art of Cloning" and can
create up to four copies of himself, however his true form is solid while his
clones will be transparent.  But once he splits himself into four copies, it
will be hard to tell who is real from the fake.  So I suggest attacking all of
them equally.

When Mahara will fall, continue east.  Not too far from him, a "Revive Scroll"
[そせいのまきもの] will appear behind you.  This is the second location of the
"Revive Scrolls" [そせいのまきもの] that Kurayami mentioned.  I suggest giving
this to the sister you mainly use, in this case Yuma or Yui.

Further east is another room similar to Mahara's Room.  In here dwells the
body double of Mahara, Tsuki.  Thankfully, he doesn't make copies of himself,
but he is still just as deadly.  When he is defeated, we actually have to make
our way back to Hell Valley since we don't yet have the weapon needed to
defeat the final boss.

You have two options of getting there:  You can either take the long way back
northwest or "warp" back to the entrance by dying.  If you decide to take the
long route, you may find yourself stuck at the area leading to the passage
where the Underground Chief was previously at, do a rolling kick at the right
wall and the screen will move up enough to where you can jump to the east.

I highly suggest that allow a sister to die in order to "warp" back to the
entrance, since we just received a "Revive Scroll" [そせいのまきもの].  I
would mainly let Yuma die if she has a "Revive Scroll" [そせいのまきもの],
since she is only needed at the Caves.  Or else let Yuka dies, regardless if
she has one or not, since she is not needed anymore.  And when that sister
dies, you will be taken back to the entrance of the Caves.

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | RETURNING TO HELL VALLEY                                         |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

We're back at Hell Valley, continue west and fight any Aboveground Kusa in
your way.  Cross the bridges and you will fight the last Aboveground Chief.
Switch to "Yui Kazama" [風間 唯] in order to deal damage to him.  When he is
defeated, the Aboveground Chief will reveal himself to be Taian [帯庵], Yui's
grandfather.  There is also a blue figurine, the "Emperor Doll" [おびな],
lying near him.  Pick it up and the priest speaks:

                      "I am your grandfather, 'Taian',
                 Let me reward you with the 'Emperor Doll'.
                           If you can defeat Shou,
                      you will obtain the Empress Doll.
                       With them, go to Mahara's Room.
                       And the legendary sword 'Vajra'
                        will be in your possession."

He will disappear, and now you have to head back east toward the Caves.

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | NAVIGATING THE DARKNESS ONCE MORE                                |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

You are now back at the Caves and it is still dark.  Switch to "Yuma Kazama"
[風間 由真] and use "Entrap Darkness" [やみふうじ] to lit the passageways.
Continue east and at the stalactites, fall down and hug the left wall.  Go
into the western passage, then fall down and go east.  After Mahara's Room,
another "Revive Scroll" [そせいのまきもの] will appear.  I highly suggest
giving this to either Yui if she does not already have one in her inventory.
Or else I will give it to Yuma, since she is sort of needed in the next area.

Continue onward, past Tsuki's Room, and we will finally end up at the "Kage"
headquarters.  The sisters should be around LV 15 to LV 18.

O============================================================================O
| [09] CHAPTER V:  SPATIOTEMPORAL FORTRESS [じくうかんのとりで]              |
O============================================================================O

It is now time to end the curse and bring down the evil Koji Kashin...

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | DANGER                                                           |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

If you recalled what Kurayami said before, you will be in trouble if you do
not have the "Insulated Suit" [ぜんつえんすーつ].  This is the area he was
talking about.

For this area, I suggest switching to "Yuma Kazama" [風間 由真].  If she has
the "Insulated Suit" [ぜんつえんすーつ] in her inventory, she will take no
damage from the electrical fences and lavas in this area.  The electrical
fences are linked fences that will be in specific rooms.  The lavas are found
in pits and there will even be rooms filled with them.  It will slowly deplete
your HP until the sister dies.  If you wind up inside an electrical fence or
lava without the suit, just quickly jump out before it kills you.  Go east and
jump over the first pit you come across.  Then climb the ledges up and
continue east.  Jump over the second pit you come scross, keep going east.
At the electrical fence, just walk through it to the other side.

When you fall down, there is a "Revive Scroll" [そせいのまきもの] by the
ledges.  This is the final location of the "Revive Scrolls" [そせいのまきもの]
that Kurayami mentioned.  I suggest giving this to Yui because we need her to
stay alive for the final boss.

Jump over the third pit and follow the straightforward path, while fighting
the Underground Kusa.  You will come across another electrical fence, just
walk through it.  Afterward, there is a lava room and just proceed forward
until you end up fighting some Aboveground Kusa and wind up in a Mysterious
Room.  Now switch to "Yui Kazama" [風間 唯].

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | BREAK SHO'S CURSE                                                |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

Immediately, three people will appear in this room:  Miyozu, clad in blue who
fights uses needles; Otohi, clad in red who uses a cloth to block the sister's
attacks; and Shou [翔], the shrine maiden surrounded by flames who is actually
Yui's long lost twin sister.

I suggest taking care of Miyozu first, jump over every needles she throws and
land hits when you drop down.  After Miyozu is defeated, focus your attention
on Otohi, she is easy to kill because her cloth does no damage to her.  After
both of Shou's subordinates are out of your way, focus on Shou herself.  Dodge
the flames surrounding her body and hit her before she teleports.  When she is
defeated, she will drop the "Empress Doll" [めびな].

If you recalled what Taian said earlier, he said that with both dolls in our
possession, we should go back to Mahara's Room.  You have two options of
getting there:  You can either take the long way back northwest or "warp" back
to the entrance by dying.  If you decide to take the long route, switch to
"Yuma Kazama" [風間 由真] and basically travel back the way you came to the
east toward the entrance.

I highly suggest that allow a sister to die in order to "warp" back to the
entrance, since we just received a "Revive Scroll" [そせいのまきもの].  I
would mainly let Yuma die if she has a "Revive Scroll" [そせいのまきもの],
since she is only needed at the Caves.  Or else let Yuka dies, regardless if
she has a "Revive Scroll" [そせいのまきもの] or not, since she is not needed
anymore.  And when that sister dies, you will be taken back to the entrance of
the Spatiotemporal Fortress.

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | THE LEGENDARY SWORD                                              |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

You are now back at the Caves and it's dark as always.  Switch to "Yuma
Kazama" [風間 由真] and use "Entrap Darkness" [やみふうじ] to lit the place.
Now switch to "Yui Kazama" [風間 唯].  At Mahara's Room, the "Emperor Doll"
[おびな] and "Empress Doll" [めびな] will be settled down, and in between them
is the fabled sword, the "Vajra" [ばじぇら].  If you have followed this
walkthrough and obtained both the "Battle Needle" [じんぱち] and "Hand Cover"
[てっこう], you will need to drop one of them in order to pick up the "Vajra"
[ばじぇら].  I suggest dropping the "Hand Cover" [てっこう] because it doesn't
give as much DP as the other item.  Now with the "Vajra" [ばじぇら] in your
possession, immediately equip it on Yui in the menu under "Arm" [ぶき].

After Mahara's Room, yet another "Revive Scroll" [そせいのまきもの] will
appear.  I highly suggest giving this to either Yui if she does not already
have one in her inventory, or else give it to Yuma.  Continue onward, past
Tsuki's Room, and back to the Spatiotemporal Fortress.  The sisters should be
around LV 18 to LV 20.

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | THE FINAL BATTLE                                                 |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

Continue east, jump over the first pit, and climb up the ledges ahead.  Fight
the Aboveground Kusa in your path and stop when you get to the second pit.
This pit is actually a shortcut leading to the bottom ground floor.  Fall
through and go west when you reach the ground, and jump over the third pit you
see immediately afterward.

Continue going through this straightforward path to the east, you will fight
some Underground Kusa along the way.  Then when you see reach the ledges going
up and to the west, switch to "Yuma Kazama" [風間 由真] so you can cross
through this room.  When you reach the Ghostly Room at the end, finally switch
to "Yui Kazama" [風間 唯] for the final confrontation.  Make sure to use up
any "Restoration Scroll" [ふくげんのまきもの] or use the "Art of Healing"
[ふくげんのじゅつ] to restore any lost health.

Koji Kashin [果心居士] is the sorcerer in green and he will throw spells at
you, so just dodge them and attack him with the "Vajra" [ばじぇら] because
none of your weapons will deal any damage to him.  Also Yuka and Yuma are
useless against him because Kashin will have a spiritual barrier protecting
him.  After Kashin is defeated, either leave the Ghostly Room or touch the
left most wall for the staff roll.

Congratulations, you've beaten Sukeban Deka III!

    | GENERAL QUESTIONS                                                |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

[Q:  DO I NEED TO HAVE KNOWLEDGE OF SUKEBAN DEKA III TO PLAY THIS GAME?]
・ A:  Not exactly, although this game was probably made solely to cater fans
      of the live-action version of Sukeban Deka III.  Unfortunately, this
      game does not give you background on any of the girls, so most would
      just generalize it as another action adventure title.

[Q:  WHAT IS THE BEST EMULATOR TO USE IN ORDER TO PLAY THIS GAME?]
・ A:  I recommend using FCEUX.  This graphics will not display properly on
      Jnes, but it is still playable to a small degree.  And the game does
      not run properly on Nestopia.

[Q:  HOW LONG IS THIS GAME?]
・ A:  About 1 to 2 hours long.

[Q:  HOW MANY ENDINGS DOES THIS GAME HAVE?]
・ A:  There is only one ending to this game, regardless of how many sisters
      are alive in the end.

[Q:  THE ENDING ONLY SHOWS A STAFF ROLL, IS THERE NO ENDING SEQUENCE?]
・ A:  You are correct, the ending is just a staff roll.

    o------------------------------------------------------------------o
    | GAMEPLAY QUESTIONS                                               |
    o------------------------------------------------------------------o

[Q:  THE ENEMIES SUDDENLY CHANGE COLOR, WHAT IS CAUSING THIS?]
・ A:  I believe this to be a programming error.  Any enemies with different
      color palette does not have higher HP nor will they give you more EX.

[Q:  WHY WON'T THIS SISTER PICK UP THIS ITEM/ARM?]
・ A:  Each sister can only carry a maximum of six items, this also includes
      any required key items like the "Telephone Card" [てれほんかーど] or
      "Receiver" [じゅしんき].  If a sister has a full inventory and needs to
      pick up an item, see if you can get another sister to pick it up
      instead.  But if you need a specific sister to pick up this item, then
      you will have to drop an item from her inventory.

[Q:  IS IT POSSIBLE TO TRADE ITEMS BETWEEN SISTERS?]
・ A:  Unfortunately, you cannot.  So you have to choose your items carefully.

[Q:  HOW DO I REVIVE A DEAD SISTER IF ANOTHER SISTER HAS A "REVIVE SCROLL"?]
・ A:  You cannot, once a sister is dead and does not have a "Revive Scroll"
      [そせいのまきもの] in her inventory, she stays dead for the entirety of
      the game.  Regardless if another sister has a "Revive Scroll"
      [そせいのまきもの] in her inventory.

[Q:  HOW DO I TRIGGER TAIAN IN HELL VALLEY?]
・ A:  You must first defeat Tsuki in the Caves.

[Q:  WHY AM I NOT TAKING DAMAGE FROM THE ELECTRICAL FENCES?]
・ A:  I believe this to be a programming error.  Regardless if Yuma has the
      "Insulated Suit" [ぜんつえんすーつ] in her inventory or not, she nor
      would Yuka or Yui take any damage from the electrical fences.

[Q:  WHY DOES YUKA AND YUI TAKE DAMAGE FROM THE LAVA AND NOT YUMA?]
・ A:  I believe this is an issue with the emulator.  Yuma did not receive any
      damage from lava in FCEUX, regardless if she has the "Insulated Suit"
      [ぜんつえんすーつ] in her inventory or not.  However her HP does
      deplete as per normal in Jnes.

[Q:  HOW DO I TRIGGER SHOU, MIYOZU, AND OTOHI IN THE MYSTERIOUS ROOM?]
・ A:  You must first obtain the "Emperor Doll" [おびな] from Taian at Hell
      Valley.

[Q:  WHY AM I NOT DOING ANY DAMAGE TO KOJI KASHIN?]
・ A:  If you attempt to fight Koji Kashin without the "Vajra" [ばじぇら], he
      will have a spiritual barrier protecting him and none of your weapons
      will deal any damage to him.  And since you cannot leave the Ghostly
      Room he dwells in, you are forced to die.
