The remainder of this document is © me and I will briefly wish a minor cramp befall anyone I discover taking their own credit for it. ====2.0: Introduction============================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------- Finger-flexing and mind blowing as the multidirectional shooting action in Bangai-O may be it would hardly have become the charming, endearing game we all know and love without the unique dialogue found in each stage. The text initially strikes the reader as a very bad translation from the Japanese but careful reading reveals nuances of style, slang and composition which hint at the hand of a sly genius. Or a massive fluke of poor translation. In any case, Bangai-O's dialogue not only provides goofy thrills but gives the characters real depth and improves with each reading, an extreme rarity in the gaming world. Of course, reading the script without having played through the game will spoil much of its enjoyment. Do yourself a favor and finish the game before reading the transcription below. All apparent errors in spelling, grammar, punctuation and capitalization found below occur in the game text itself, which has been copied letter for letter. Please notify me if you encounter any discrepancies in this transcription. Disc in. Power on. The splash screens appear, the introduction plays... ====3.0: Script==================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------- In the distant future, at the edge of the universe, lies the planet Dan Star.

That is namely the counter- attack. Riki: Counter-Attack!? Mrs. M: If hostile missiles are approaching, attacking from all sides! Mrs. M: Then the right number of bullets will be fired according to the situation. Riki: So the more hostile missles there are, the better is our chance of victory!?

My younger brother, Isn't that Gai? Your brother?! What do you mean, Father? I suppose things have gone This far I must tell you what happened on that fateful day long ago. Well... It all happened about 80 years ago. It was the middle of winter and an unforgettably icy wind was howling. Gai and I were running along a dark alleyway. Around then there was a popular play with the title "The Gods of South East Asia, their rise and fall." Back then we were both young... ...but they didn't even open their mouths. Gai and I sobbed thick wet tears. Even the then when we were completely desolate, a young woman came to us. We couldn't breathe. For her face was just like that of Hiroko's. The light from the evening sun went down on us. "Gai, Gaiiiiii", I called as I ran up to him. But it was already too late. The sea appeared to tower up like a mountain and a massive youth appeared. His body stood in the way of the beaming sun and cast a huge shadow. Then the huge lad opened his mouth and said: "The paradise for business". Father, I feel as if a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulderss. So everything is well. It is well. Everything was thus over. So, from now on we are six in our family. Long live friendship for all! ====4.0: History=================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------- v1.0 >> 04/28/01 First version, text complete to my knowledge. v1.1 >> 04/29/01 Removed an extra blank line.
