I- Intro [00001]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are no FAQs or walkthroughs for this anywhere, and it's pretty hard. I
decided that since no one did it it's because the puzzle mode is frustrating at
some point, because people try it and just stop, thinking it will be too hard.
And since I could finish it, maybe I should show to the world how possible it
is. Well, I can detail more in the next version.
I ran into this game in the past and couldn't finish the Puzzle Mode (called
Stage Clear) and after many tries and giving up many times, I finally could
figure it out. I'm not a person who run from the fate of succedding and
defeating enemies that I failed before.
I'm Brazilian, so I hope my english is good enough for everyone to understand.
I think it's at least better than my japanese, you know.
Last, puzzle games are just so amazing.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
II- Story [00002]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sailor Moon and balloons aren't really related to each other, except for this
game. If there is a story, it's probably something like this:
Sailors were bored after partying and decided to shoot those balloons left up
on the roof, just for fun. Well, really, it's not important.
In case you're wandering, there are 20 stage for each difficulty. Some of them
are very challenging. You can call the stages levels, rounds, whatever.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
III- Basics [00003]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, how to play can always help. So, even if you already know how to play,
this section can prove useful by making you remember a command or two.
Oh, I'm not covering scoring, attacking, opponents, second screen, Sailor
Specials, and such. Puzzle mode has only one screen, 8 balloons-high, 6
balloons-large, with a pre-set number of balloons already wandering for your
solution, most of the times (some can make you go away from the solution,
there are tricks).
Stage Clear Mode isn't really like the Story Mode or Versus Mode. I will write
the differences to you:
Directional: left or right will make your sailor go to the same directions.
Down or up won't have any effect on Stage Clear Mode, since you can't
accelerate the outcoming row of balloons.
Button A: your shot button, your main attack. If you shoot a single balloon,
it will pop it, unless it's a small balloons, which will grow to a normal one.
Balloons of same colors connect with others vertically and horizontally for
chains of balloons that are worth combos, which can be exploded all at once.
Gray balloons can only be exploded with certain items, see Items section in
this FAQ for more information.
Button B: this button, during game, will call Tuxedo Kamen to elliminate the
bottom row for you, whatever is there, small, normal, gray balloons all
can be destroyed this way. You need yellow energy to use it.
Button Select: if you use this button, you'll give up the current stage. Use
it only when you know you lost.
Button Start: pressing it will cause the game to pause. When paused, you can
see the combos of balloons that will give you items, but only a japanese
explanation even I can't read.
Button X, Y, L, R? No use.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IV- Energy Bar [00004]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before starting the items explanation, you should understand your energy bar.
On the left of your main game screen with balloons you can shot, you can see
your energy bar. It always start with five points, all pink. When you shoot two
colored balloons or combos of any color except gray, and destroy them, you'll
gain a yellow point of energy.
Yellow points of energy allow you to use Tuxedo Kamen's rose strike, that is
used with the B button. You spend five energy points, yellow or pink, with this
strike.
You lose energy when you explode any gray balloon, and if a combo is connected
to four gray balloons, they will all explode and you'll lose four energy
points. The only way of elliminating gray balloons that keeps you from losing
points will be losing five energy points on the Tuxedo Kamen strike.
The main consequence of losing energy is that if you have no energy points
left, your sailor will detransform. A detransformed sailor is slower, can't use
balloon combos, and will only retransform after rebuilding your five initial
energy points, which is make by popping 10 single balloons. Detransformed
sailors can get items if they were falling before detransformating.
You should save energy on Challenge Stages, and figure out what to do with
energy points on Puzzle Stages. Difference between the types of stages are
listed in a further section.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
V- Items [00005]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some combinations of three, four or five balloons will give you items. You
should learn them for an easier understanding of this FAQ.
--------------
Vertical Shot:
--------------
O
O
O
Three balloons connected in the same column will give you the Vertical Shot,
which can destroy an entire column of balloons, even small and gray will be
gone. It won't trigger any combos it hits.
----------------
Horizontal Shot:
----------------
OOO
Three balloons connected in the same row will give you the Horizontal Shot,
which can destroy an entire row of balloons, even small and gray will be gone.
It won't trigger any combos it hits.
-----------
Color Shot:
-----------
OOO
O
This combo will give you the Color Shot, which will destroy all balloons of the
same color, small, normal, even gray can be shoot with this. It won't trigger
any combos it hits, as all gray balloons will still be there if they were not
the target.
----------------
Same Color Item:
----------------
O
OOO
When you have this item, you'll receive two new rows filled with balloons of
the same color. It's useless on puzzle stages, but challenge stages can be a
lot easier with one of these. It's a rare item, though.
------------
Gray Killer:
------------
OO
OO
This is what allows you to destroy gray balloons with single shots. You lose
one energy point to each gray balloon you hit, unless you have no energy.
------------
Guided Shot:
------------
OOO
O O
This item will be useful sometimes, it allows you to guide your next three
shots, to hit balloons that hide in a diagonal pattern:
________
|TOOOOO|
|O |
| \ |
| |
You should start holding left when the shot is a little before this. T is the
target, in this example.
------
Heart:
------
O
OOO
O
This item will give you a full energy bar, transform you, and if you were
playing outside Stage Clear Mode, it would allow you to use a special.
----------------
Detransform Item
----------------
Any other combination of four balloons not listed will give you this item. In
Story or Versus Mode, it's a bummer, but here, in Stage Clear Mode, it can even
save you, so learn to get it sometimes.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VI- Types of Stages [00006]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are two different types of stages you can go through in Stage Clear Mode:
----------------
Challenge Stage:
----------------
They start with a set number of balloons, and will give you extra rows within
time, which you can't accelerate.
-------------
Puzzle Stage:
-------------
In these stages, you only have to deal with the set of balloons, no new one
will come.
------------
Differences:
------------
- During a Puzzle Stage, Same Color Item is useless, but it's useful on
Challenge Stages.
- You should never call Tuxedo Kamen to kill colored balloons on a Puzzle
Stage, but it can save you on many Challenge Stages.
- In Challenge Stages, you need to shoot a bigger number of balloons than
showed on the screen when beginning, but in Puzzle Stages, the number is
exactly the same, so you need to shoot all balloons. Gray balloons doesn't
count as shootable balloons for the solution.
- The music is different. Challenge Stages have this paced-up-bee-remix music,
and Puzzle Stages have that sailors-go-happy music.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VII- Stage Clear Explanation [00007]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 3rd option on the main menu will start (hajime kara) your game, or continue
it (tsudzuki kara), so, if you'll start, it's the first option, but if you have
a password, choose the second option to insert it.
After starting, you'll get the title Stage Clear Game (suteeji kuria geemu) and
the options Play Game (geemu wo suru) or Hear Explanation (setsumei wo kiku),
which you can't read without knowing katakana and hiragana, so I'll try to
translate Luna's words to you:
- kimerareta kazu no fuusen wo keshite ne
- jikannai ni kesereba suteejikuria yo
- hissatsuhaza wa koko de wa tsukaenai no
- demo takishiidokamen wa tasuke ni kitekureru wa yo
- aitemu wo tsukawanai to tokenai suteeji mo aru wa
- [P] maaku no suteeji wa pazuru suteeji yo
- [P] suteeji de wa shita kara fuusen ga detekonai no
- dakara awatenaide kuriashite ne
- mittsu no koosu ga atte jiyuu ni eraberu kedo
- hajimete asobuhito wa yasashii koosu kara ne
- jaa sorosoro geemu wo hajimemashou
Which says something like:
Go through the Challenge Stages, you have a time limit to shoot a certain
number of balloons, can't accelerate the outcoming balloons and Tuxedo Kamen
will help you if you call him, stages with [P] mark are puzzle stages, which
have no outcoming balloons and you'll have to figure out how to clean the
screen. There are 3 courses, and if you want to have more fun, start with the
easy one. Then, let's being to play! I don't know japanese enough to translate
it literally, but that's the basics...
Ok, jumping the explanation or not, right after you'll receive three options
(chousensurukoosu wo erande ne, which means choose a course to try on), which
are: easy (yasashiikoosu), normal (futsuukoosu), and hard (muzukashiikoosu),
and koosu means course, of course =P
Easy: stage 01 to 20
Normal: stage 21 to 40
Hard: stage 41 to 60
Next screen will have you choosing the Sailor you want to use, so choose your
favorite one, or a prettier one, I don't care, there are no different powers,
so any will be fine to play.
Options:
- Super Sailor Moon (suupaaseeraamuun, honmei Tsukino Usagi)
- Super Chibi Moon (suupaachibimuun, honmei sumooruredi, Small Lady)
- Sailor Mars (seeraamaasu, honmei Hino Rei)
- Sailor Mercury (seeraamaakyurii, honmei Mizuno Ami)
- Sailor Jupiter (seeraajupitaa, honmei Kino Makoto)
- Sailor Venus (seeraaviinasu, honmei Aino Minako)
- Sailor Uranus (seeraauranus, honmei Ten'ou Haruka)
- Sailor Neptune (seeraanepuchuun, honmei Kaiou Michiru)
- Sailor Pluto (seeraapuruuto, honmei Meiou Setsuna)
Honmei = creation name
Of course you don't need to read, their pictures are there...
At the beginning of any stage, Tuxedo Kamen will say "yo~i, suta~to!", which
means "well, start!" and then you start shooting them. Quite simple for an
idea...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VIII- How do I read the FAQ? [00008]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Puzzle Stage / Challenge Stage: Which one you're facing.
Time: You must finish any stage under the given time.
How much: the number of balloons you have to shoot to finish, or, more
specific, your objective.
Shrinking: In Story or Versus mode, your space shrink when the opponent's
number of balloons destroyed go 40, but in Stage Clear Mode, it can vary from
50, 40, to 5, 1.
Difficulty: from 1 to 10 asterisks, the more, the harder.
Screen: You can see the initial screen here as the game shows. Or if it's
empty, I won't put anything. Balloons are:
B = blue balloon
Y = yellow
P = pink
G = green
M = maroon, or brown
X = gray
b, y, p, g, m? small balloons

If you understood it, then it's ok.
How to do: This is the reason you searched for the FAQ, right? Or maybe you
should be trying to solve them alone... too hard? So read it, I'll try to be as
specific as I can.
Note: when I say "bottom" during the walkthrough, I mean the farthest row from
the sailor point of view.

How to do: shoot them in any way, but don't get the detransform item if it
comes out, avoid it. If you get it, you'll have to shoot ten single balloons to
transform again, which is very easy within 1 entire minute. Start with the
blues for a guaranteed victory, I mean, you CAN lose by not shooting them
before twenty come off.

balloons will make time stop for the moment. That would even explain why
enemies don't attack sailors during their transformation in the anime, it's
because time stops.

How to do: avoiding items for a start. If you start with pink, you'll lose. So,
start with the two pairs of blue, then pinks, then middle blues, and then, you
go with.. no, not yellows, with 28, any yellow will make you lose! So go with
the blues in the bottom, with that, you're free of shrinking.

How to do: wait for maroons to gather in the bottom, shoot blue first. Then
maroon, yellow, and finally green. You don't need vertical power. If you use
it, you'll probably waste the blue combo and get stuck with balloons behind
gray. Or worse, you'll de-transform. There is no need to worry about the tower
of gray on the right.

How to do: by managing to understand the problem here. First shoot all blues.
Then, when they start coming, you can keep the color you see the most on
screen, so you won't be stuck with this middle pillar. Colors will help you a
lot when coming, as this is easy mode yet. Don't be afraid of de-transforming,
you won't have problems reducing the pillar by three floors at the beginning.

After this stage you'll get a screen with Easy Course Clear
(yasashiikoosukuria) and a big Congratulations (omedetou), Luna will say:
- kokokara saki wa chotto muzukashiku naru yo
- futsuukoosu ni chousensuru?
Which means exactly
- from now on it will get slightly harder
- can you try on to Normal Course?
You'll choose the first option (chousensuru), of course, the walkthrough is
for the harder parts! Don't choose Give up (yameru), or else your score will be
reseted to 0 when you start the next course, after going through Intro, Title
screen and menu. Let's move on, shall we?

How to do: first you shoot these greens, and avoid the item they'll drop, and
then the blues will give you a solution: guided shots. Blow the pink bottom,
detransform, and quickly clean what is left. You can go for the maroons first,
so you will have to shoot less detransformed shots.

How to do: if you start shoot anything, the column of small balloons on the
right will be intact in the end, and this is losing. So, how is this column
going to fall? You need the vertical shot. It can be formed with pinks, in the
second column, if you shoot others first. It can be formed with maroons too, or
maybe you'll want to gain the gray killer with pinks, there are many solutions,
but I gave it four asterisks because there are many ways to lose, too.

How to do: actually, in many ways, choose your favorite item. You can use the
one for next lines coming all the same color, or you can clean the field from
maroons in a few shots. From this stage on, keep in mind that you have Tuxedo
Kamen, he can make the bottom row disappear, using five energy points. You'll
get energy on this stage, and some grays to deal with, there is time, use him
if you need.

How to do: well, if you start shooting yellows, you'll detransform and have
time to form vertical shots, but be careful with the 20th, you need the space
to shrink, so let the nearest row be clean in the moment. Verticals work great
after the 20th. Many ways to lose here, so be careful with your strategy. I
think detransforming is the easiest way.

How to do: not letting the shrinking throw away your balloons, of course.
First, horizontally clean the field, you'll detransform but you can rebuild
your energy. After 19 don't hit the 20th during the balloon coming, or else
you'll run out of time in the end. It happens from 39th to 40th too, so be
careful twice. If you need, Tuxedo Kamen is there for you too.

How to do: not in any way, of course. The left corner blue one is just trapped
there. But you can clean it with a little strategy. The yellows are very
inclined to give you the horizontal item, or the color shot, but you would need
two... first, shoot blues to detransformation, then prepare the item and use
the sixth column to retransform, and when you do, use the horizontal shot to
clean the bottom line, and the maroons will find their own way in the end.

How to do: you'll get a lot of shrinking when they come from each 5 balloons
you take out. Start with the sides, and when you finish both of them you'll
already have 3 lines less than before. That's when you should start using the
vertical shots, and quick, you'll be full of little balloons to deal with after
the second line. Usually the best way to use the vertical shot is getting with
green to use on blues of fourth column. There are no grays, so this won't hold
you for much time.

How to do: longer stages ahead. start shooting the greens, and then watch the
lines coming. Shrinking. Taking your space away from you. But this won't be
hard because you continue to receive a lot of horizontal items. Just be careful
what you shoot when grays start coming, but you'll probably have a lot of
energy at this point.

How to do: quite easy for the hard course. Oh no, don't start shooting
everything without my permission! Look around, what you can do about the grays?
You need to take them out somehow. So, how about a horizontal shot? The first
four balloons you take out, get the item! Detransformed, you can prepare the
field for horizontal items, you just need 10 balloons to retransform and use
one on the little wall. Done? Next. ... actually, get back here. And.. learn
this technique. In many stages ahead, you'll need to think of every
possibility. Especially outside the box. Different items will save you all the
time. You probably already know when you'll get them and how to build the
terrain, so remember to think different sometimes. Well, next stage.

How to do: you'll start noticing Challenge Stages are getting easier, and
Puzzle Stages are getting harder, right? This one took me some time to figure
out. Well, avoid items! Do not get these vertical things, this is a shrinker
stage. You need to deal with it the most horizontal you can. Go left to right
and right to left then, you'll see that the space is a threat, but you won't be
defeated. Oh, I'll let you use one vertical shot in the sixth. It's possible to
use one without losing.

How to do: there are many ways to lose here. Different strategies can lead to
the same old annoyment. The question is how to deal with the gray walls. They
get in the way all the time. Start by losing it. The blues will take out so
much grays that you'll de-transform, but you still can use the vertical shot,
. use it on the sixth column. Those maroons. And rebuild for this field:

Are you seeing the solution now? Well, let's go: blues on second-third, pinks

little lonely maroon is no more a threat. You won. See how the gray one is
still there? You don't need them anyway. First stage to be explained with two
pictures =P I could just give instructions where to shoot, but it's prettier
this way... isn't Sailor Moon about a PRETTY soldier?

How to do: so many options. So many ways to lose. Well, on to the solution. You
see, the horizontal item can help you, and the vertical cannot. You already
know the reason. Lines will shrink quickly, so taking out a column will make
the others reach you and it's over. Start by using the yellow horizontal and
take the peaks away with it. Next, get the pinks out, and don't bother
remembering what this item do, it's useless. And then, the blue big plus, you
need energy. Now, you took out 14, the 15th need to be the little pinky on
left? No! Shoot the yellow big plus right away! Pinky is a trap. Finally,
you'll have this:

Is it clear now? Greens are next, or blues, and then the pinky, and you need to

solution, and only one way of shooting it will be right. You got it, right? The
gray on the left. Or else you would have blues stuck. Finished? Let's keep
moving.

How to do: shoot right away for the detransformation, the field will be mostly
clean, with few grays to deal with later. The stage won't get any harder, as
there are no upcoming grays to come. You don't need to deal with grays, and you
probably won't, because the upcoming lines are messy enough to not form any
combo. But it's an easy stage, in my opinion.

How to do: first, by not using the color shot on the yellows... it's the
quickest way to lose. Using on pinks won't help either, and don't bother
thinking about blues. Vertical shot is useless too. Camon, what is left? Give
up (yameru)? ... this IS the hardest stage so far. But the solution is right in
front of you. It's screaming "Shoot me!" and you will. First, take off what you
can from fourth column. This will give you a shootable gray. And now get the
color shot... and shoot the gray! Satisfied with the results? You can do it
anytime the scenario let you, so use it. ... hard?

since all balloons need to be shot. Well, it's not too hard. First, think:
what's the worst that can happen? End up with a big gray wall that is
undefeatable. You just have to avoid this by detransforming earlier.. shoot the
first gray wall with the horizontal shot. See this:

See? Guided shot on the square, and you'll get de-transformed, and the ability
to destroy grays is yours. You can even shoot everything else and let that big
pink plus there for a pretty ending. That's not necessary, though. And the
heart won't reach you anyway.

How to do: this took me ages, took me even the phrase "That's impossible!" ..
twice. But I managed to come with the solution then! There IS a solution, don't
give up. See that wall of gray? You will overpass it. In fact, I will give you
a way to destroy it completely. You'll laugh detransformed. Well, start by
losing your transformation, shoot the four greens together, get the item, and

Getting to the solution already? No?? ... now shoot fourth column and see what
you formed: yellow vertical item. Use it on the fourth column (again, the same
column) and you have the gray killer on the right corner. This is the only
solution I could come up with, after being defeated so many times. Now, laugh
detransformed, please.

possible, sorry. But you see, there are few way to lose here. Trying the
horizontal, or letting the screen smash you,.. only two! Now, the way to the
victory. You'll have to thank him later. Him? .. yes, Tuxedo Kamen! He's
perfect for the job. First, gather a little energy shooting the biggest pillar,
on the left, and then, boom! Kamen will save you. Kamen saved you on a puzzle

How to do: you can't do whatever you want here. The easier way is cleaning up
the field at the beginning. There will be a lot of grays coming, you don't want
to use Kamen to clean your good combos later, right? If you need, use him.
Especially when the bottom is filled with gray. Well, then, it will get hard
with grays coming on the same columns, but you can save yourself by being quick
dealing with colored balloons and Kamen-ing the field a lot. Be extra-careful
after 120. Don't even think about detransforming here. The sailor will get too
slow to the flow. Eventually you will manage to win this one. Well, finally a
hard Challenge Stage, right?

How to do: I'll give you an easy way out: go for the color shot and kill blue.
Third column needs two shots, and then quickly prepare the item on the right,
and with that in hand, shoot blue, and then pink, and you're on to the next. If
this wasn't possible, this stage would be harder than the last one.

How to do: after these last two stages, this one is pretty easy. Aim for the
horizontals you can see on the field already, with the stage clean, this will
be a piece of cake,... except that you'll have to make most balloons grow first
to take them out. There will be a lot of time left when you win, believe it.

Right after stage 60, you'll get a slightly different screen, almost the same,
except for Luna's words. Well, it's Hard Course Clear (muzukashiikoosukuria)
and the big Congratulations (omedetou), and this is what she will say to you:
- zenbukuria omedetou!
Which means
- congratulations for clearing all stages!
Well, the ending will show up, exactly like the Story Mode ending...
..and then the credits. I enjoy this music.
Think it's over? Oh no. There is more.
Luna will come again on that pink congratulation screen, and say more:
- muzukashiikoosu wo kuriashita anata ni wa
- supeshiaru suteeji wo purezentosuru wa
- supeshiaru suteeji ni chousensuru?
which is translated to:
- you cleared the hard course
- presenting the special stages
- can you try on the special stages?
and the options are there. You managed to come so far, would you really give
up (yameru) now? Well, if you're tired, you can, because you'll receive the
password for giving up to try again later. But the walkthrough will not
continue. Now, deal with the hardest Sailor Moon puzzles ever alone. Go try

How to do: you can see how a special stage looks.. and you'll even see how they
can be hard when you try it out some times. Ok, this one is actually easy.
Because you can easily form a gray killer. maroons there are asking you to take
out the middle one. So, four shots on the second column, and then grab the
horizontal item, and use it on your dug hole. You can clean the field one by
one, and there will be time to spare.

How to do: another stage with many colors not making combos. This one has fewer
possibilities, if you start shooting anything, you'll be stuck with a diagonal
gray wall. But breaking through it isn't hard. The hard part is being stuck
with one horizontal and one vertical item, and believe it or not, that's all
you need. That and a detransforming. Ok, the solution: step 1: shoot the yellow
right in front of you, and then give three shots to the sixth column. See the
blues planting the bomb to your diagonal wall?

How to do: I should give this stage more than 10 asterisks. This is really
tricky. You have six balloons for almost every line and each five you blow,
another line shrinks! They really came up with this: the impossible! Forget it,
even I couldn't do it. ... ok, gotcha, there is a solution. There is a
possibility for the impossible to become possible. Well, let's solve the mess:
Step 1: horizontal shot the second row, like this:
________
|______|
|GGGPPP|
|GBXXBP|
|GbMMbP|
|BBbbBB|
|XbMMbX|
|BBbbBB|
| b |
Step 2: continue shooting the third column, for another horizontal, and use it
on the current second row:
________
|______|
|______|
|GGGPPP|
|GBXXBP|
|GbMMbP|
|BBbbBB|
| b bBB|
| |
Many people can get here, but the solution lies in a thing fewer people try.
Step 3: continue on third row and get another horizontal, but use it on the
nearest row now:
________
|______|
|______|
|______|
|______|
|GGGPPP|
|GBXXBP|
|GbMMbP|
| b bBB|
It's getting closer, now breathe, and see what happens on step 4: take out the
blue on second column and use the last horizontal shot, on the only row you'll
be able to:
________
|______|
|______|
|______|
|______|
|______|
|______|
|GGGPPP|
|GBXXBP|
See? 30 balloons over, now you're starting to see the possibility! Now the last
step: choose green or pink, and blow both. Of course avoiding the
detransformer. And finally it's solved. I hope you didn't have the same
headache I had while trying this...

that hard, you see those gray walls forcing you to think "I want a gray killer,
and I want it now!", see? Well, that's what you're getting, so start out by the
right side, take them one by one, so you have seven energy points. And then,

How to do: well, not that hard for a stage that is placed after these last two.

maroons. first, take out the third row with the horizontal shot you can get
from maroons:
________

|yXgByB|
|XgXyBp|

See the pinks bigger? Do that too. And then use this item, to get rid of one
entire color.. but which of them will give you the biggest advantage? Pink is
miserable, green is between, and yellow will only fortify the gray wall, so,..
maroon! I said it, anihilation of maroons! After that, Take the next row out
and you'll have:
________
|______|

.. and enough energy to explode all of the left side, getting rid of all the
gray, which is the "problem solved" situation. Be careful with the shrinking
screen, and detransformation, and you're done.

How to do: first, see the problem. Ok, after a lot of shots, you can't enter
the right side, because the yellows are disconnected, the middle small yellows,
ok, hate them. Now, let's go to the solution. See the blues there? The few
blues will guide you to the solution. First, give the fourth column three
shots, to take out the pinks:
________
|YYYyyY|
|YYY YY|
|YbY YY|

|gpg gp|
|YXY XY|

|g g YY|

How to do: whatever you do will make some blues get stuck behind the wall, or
you'll die squeezed. That seems to be the problem here. Now, onto the solution.
First, this stage is really hypnotizing. When you try something and lose, you
tend to try the same thing on and on, and get nowhere. But the solution is
exactly behind this hypnosis: first you have to use the three yellows on right
to the horizontal shot and take out the main gray wall, de-transforming. You'll
get:
________
|______|
|PPPPPB|
|XBXPPB|
|BXBXPB|

possibility of a vertical shot. Start with the left side:
________
|______|
|______|

|X XPP |

Grew the pink one too? So, shoot the pinks! Blues will just stay there knowing

How to do: the most guided stage in the entire game. Well, you shouldn't give
up this set. But first destroy everything else around. Build the energy with
these seven wandering balloons and now, the guided missiles. Yeah, missiles.

How to do: it isn't the hardest stage ever, for sure. But it can be tricky to
figure out. There is no way you'll come up with horizontal or color items here.
And guided missiles? Don't even think of them. It's not like you need those
fancy things. See? The only one you need is that vertical one in the middle.
The yellows. Shoot them already. And use it on the only place that doesn't make
you lose... that lonely pinky there:
________
|mMYXBG|
|XM PXG|
|BM XBG|
|BM XBG|
|BM BX|

That will cause you to de-transform, which is exactly what you need to not be
squeezed. Now rebuild your sailor on the horizontal style, aiming for this:
________
|______|
|______|
|mM BG|
|XM XG|
|BM BG|
|B BG|
|B BX|

have enough to rebuild again.
________

|mM BG|
|XM G|

You should have this, and be transformed. Now go shooting the nearest columns,
which are 1, 6, 2 and victory. You can even use these last vertical shots, so
the last green set won't give you another detransforming item. Last vertical
can go to the small maroon balloon, if you want to go a little faster.

How to do: aren't you tired of this horrible music? Well, I was. You probably
already turned it off many stages before. Well, looks like a very confusing
stage. And it really is, but not to someone that has my walkthrough! =P First
things first. You have this pretty little obvious set of guided missiles. And
this horizontal item, all for free. But after trying many combinations, you'll
see that these free things aren't getting you to any point of the solution? So,
let's start working this out:

________
|BgXPXB|
|XgyP X|
|BXyp |
|XGG |
|BXG |

After the green combo, you'll have two possibilities for vertical shooting. And
both will de-transform you because of low energy. But you'll be able to shoot
it. Choose, of course, the one on left.

The ending will be spoiled to you. So don't read. But I really think it's no
big deal. I need to write it here, so you, who can't read japanese, will be
able to know what's written:
First, a black screen. Words will be shown, which can be read:
- takishiidokamen-sama, arigatou!
Of course it means:
- Tuxedo Kamen-sama, thank you!
Some minutes will pass (two, at least) and the screen will change.
A light blue screen, and Tuxedo Kamen will appear, chibi-like, bigger, and will
V to you with his hand.
I don't think anything else happens, even if you let 10 more minutes pass.
That's the ending. No sailor show for us.

Q- How do I pass Stage <insert number>?
A- if the walkthrough didn't help at all, email me, but I'll take some time to
answer...
Q- You call this drawing? I want better pictures/can't understand them!
A- Sorry, that's the best I can do on a notepad. Perhaps I should try hosting
pictures of the game, but don't count on it any time soon. At least I wanted a
better solution for small and big, cause Y and P are hard to read.
Q- Help! I don't know hiragana or any japanese!
A- Try google =P
Q- You fooled me! It's HA instead of WA!
A- Oh no, I didn't, in japanese, the hiragana HA, when used as particle, is
really read WA.
