LEGALESE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INTRODUCTION ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1a. SERIES HISTORY Everyone knows this series by heart, but for those in the dark, we take you to the beginning. The story begins about 1000 years in the past on the Earth’s moon. The Silver Millennium was a kingdom of peace ruled by Queen Serenity. She ruled the kingdom with an open heart alongside her daughter Princess Serenity and an Earth Prince named Endymion. Alongside Princess Serenity is her royal court of princesses from other planets. Suddenly, the peace was shattered when the Dark Kingdom led by Queen Beryl invaded the moon in order to claim the Silver Crystal and rule the universe. Queen Serenity used all of her might and the power of the Silver Crystal to drive back the Dark Kingdom. In the end, Queen Serenity faded away. With the last of her strength, she sends her followers to a future on Earth. 1000 years has passed and the Moon Princess is reborn as a clumsy ditzy teenage girl named Usagi Tsukino. With help from her cat guardian Luna, Usagi transforms into the sailor-suited superhero Sailor Moon! 1b. ARCADE STORYLINE The Sailor Moon arcade game is almost basically a battle with enemies and bosses from Season 1. The game is similar to scrolling beat-‘em-ups like Final Fight or Double Dragon, but mostly Final Fight with added twists. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GAME CONTROLS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You have a basic arcade layout for most fighting games. You got a Joystick and three buttons: Attack, Jump and Super. 2a. BASIC MOVES MOVE: Joystick ATTACK: Attack Button JUMP: Jump Button GRAB: Hold left or right when close to enemy THROW: Left or Right + Attack after Grab DASH: Double-tap left or right DASH ATTACK: Double-tap left or right + Attack RUNNING JUMP: Double-tap left or right + Jump JUMPKICK: Jump then Attack FLYING JUMPKICK: Running Jump then Attack DOWNWARD STRIKE: Down + Attack during any Jump 2b. SPECIAL MOVES 360 ATTACK: Attack + Jump SUPER MOVE: Super Button (later explained in Game Elements) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GAME ELEMENTS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As you play the game you’ll run into helpful items along the way. You’ll also run into your generic gangs of bad guys. Some fighting games like Final Fight have regenerative enemies during boss stages. This will be outlined in the Walkthrough later. Look for special power-up items along the way. 3a. ITEMS Peppermint Candy: Fills your health by 10% Bracelet: Fills your health by 13% Canned Food: Fills your health by 15% Ice Cream: Fills your health by 20% Muffin: Fills your health by 33% Cake: Fills your health by 40% Donuts: Fills your health by 50% Rose: Restores full health Crystal: Power-up item used for elemental attacks When you retrieve a Crystal, you’ll gain a Level of power. A Sailor Senshi can collect as many as 5. For a Sailor Senshi to unleash her Special Attack, she must use all 5 Crystals to unleash it on all the enemies and a few bosses, too. 3b. ENEMIES The enemies are from Season 1, but there is one that is not from the series itself, just a basic enemy. Each throwaway enemy will be listed by their original and English names. The bosses will be listed as well in the Walkthrough section. FROU Frou is a yoma girl in a toga. She appeared during the time Jadeite took over FM10, a local radio station. TESUNI (TENSY) Tesuni is a large yoma girl who uses a powerful racquet and tennis ball bombs. She appeared after Nephrite possessed a young tennis girl. YASHA Like the legendary Japanese monster itself, Yasha is a female yoma wearing an oni mask, a standard haori (jacket) and hakama (trousers). She was ordered to spy on Nephrite in case he found the Silver Crystal. TITUS Titus is a yoma woman with a faceless mask and an almost liquidy body. She appeared when Jadeite took over a couples-only cruise ship. ONIWABANDANA (NINJANA) Oniwabandana is a yoma kunoichi (ninja girl) who uses all the weapons and skills of a ninja. She was hired by Kunzite to defeat Sailor Moon and take her Silver Crystal and her life. CONTROLLED HUMAN This is a normal man who wears a trench coat, pants and a wool cap. This enemy is only found in one stage throughout the game. JUMO Jumo is a yoma girl whose body is composed of a mannequin. The mannequin parts can also be detached and reconnect at will so long as Jumo is alive. She appeared after Nephrite possessed a young dollmaker girl whose best friends with Usagi’s young brother Shingo. MURIDO (DREAM DOLLY) Murido is a yoma doll dresses as a little girl and is completely mechanical. She was part of a scheme when Jadeite took over the DreamLand amusement park. GEMINI CLONE For more information, check Kastor and Pollux in the Bosses section of the Walkthrough. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHARACTER PROFILES ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The following profiles have been borrowed from “The Sailor Moon Role-Playing Game and Resource Book” courtesy of Guardians of Order.

Final Fight has some of these glitches and so does this game. HIT AND PIVOT In the middle of a combo, you can avoid attacking a third time by turning away and using your combo again. The term is also called “turn-canceling” as quoted by Bryce Griffith (Youkai Kouga). Look for this strategy in the Walkthrough. OFF-SCREEN IMMUNITY Some enemies go halfway off-screen and don’t take damage no matter what attacks you use. Only enemies fully on-screen can take damage from any attacks used. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WALKTHROUGH ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6a. AREAS LEVEL 1: AZABU JUBAN ENEMIES INTRODUCED: FROU, TESUNI, YASHA, TITUS You begin your battle on the streets of Azabu Juban. You begin fighting the yoma as you gather power-ups and energy for the battles ahead. LEVEL 2: DOWNTOWN/OSA-P JEWELRY ENEMIES INTRODUCED: ONIWABANDANA, JUMO Heading further downtown, more enemies surprise you as you make your way towards the OSA-P jewelry store where a powerful yoma is stealing energy. After Stage 2 is complete, an intermission screen shows Queen Beryl’s claw-like hands waving over a crystal ball as Jadeite stands. Quite possibly, the scene represents Queen Beryl’s displeasure in having Jadeite fail her missions. LEVEL 3: BACK ALLEY/DUMP/TOKYO TOWER ENEMIES INTRODUCED: GEMINI CLONE You head towards a rundown part of Azabu as you head towards a junkyard where a powerful yoma awaits. Not too far from the dump is the landmark Tokyo Tower. LEVEL 4: ACADEMY The academy Ami goes to after school is under attack by a yoma and you must stop her from stealing energy. The source of the evil energy is located at the end inside the computer room. LEVEL 5: YOKOHAMA BAY ENEMIES INTRODUCED: CONTROLLED HUMAN A seaside port is under control of the Dark Kingdom. Workers from a nearby warehouse are under the spell and attack you. You must fight your way into the warehouse and try to break the spell. LEVEL 6: SANJOUIN MANOR (STANTON MANSION) ENEMIES INTRODUCED: MURIDO The manor house of Masato Sanjouin (Maxfield Stanton) A.K.A. Nephrite (Neflite) is on the other end of a forest where enemies await your arrival. LEVEL 7: DOWNTOWN/CROWN GAME CENTER/SUPERMARKET Bakene, a wild cat yoma, is on a rampage throughout town! You must stop this beast before he does any more damage to the town and its people. LEVEL 8: NORTH POLE/DARK KINGDOM This is it, the final showdown! Here at the North Pole, the portal to the Dark Kingdom is wide open awaiting the invasion of Earth. This is the last stand for the Sailor Senshi and must succeed in driving the evil away! Go Sailor Team! 6b. BOSSES Here are the bosses of the entire game. Note below you see: HIT AND PIVOT __, REGEN GANG __, TUXEDO KAMEN __. An “OK” means it’s in effect and an “NG” means it’s not there. BOSS 1: KASTOR & POLLUX (The Gemini Warriors) HIT AND PIVOT OK, REGEN GANG OK, TUXEDO KAMEN NG Kastor and Pollux are twin yoma girls with long tails. Nephrite created them after he possessed an artist working on an anime. Kastor and Pollux utilize both Sailor Mars and Sailor Mercury’s Special Attacks against the Sailor Senshi. In Stage 3, a clone of Kastor and Pollux reappears as a generic yoma. BOSS 2: MORGA HIT AND PIVOT OK, REGEN GANG OK, TUXEDO KAMEN OK Morga is a yoma who kidnapped the owner of OSA-P Jewelry and took her place. Naru Osaka, Usagi’s best friend, is the daughter of the jewelry store owner. As you approach Morga, she drops Naru and attacks you. When things get too rough, Tuxedo Mask evens the odds only temporarily. BOSS 3: KYULENE HIT AND PIVOT OK, REGEN GANG NG, TUXEDO KAMEN NG Kyulene is a female yoma that resembles a gargoyle. She can fly with the wings on her back and attack. When her power level is halfway down, she leaves the junkyard and heads directly for Tokyo Tower where the battle continues. BOSS 4: GAROBEN HIT AND PIVOT OK, REGEN GANG NG, TUXEDO KAMEN OK Garoben is a large lanky female demon who was in charge of draining life energy from people at the computers. As you arrive in the computer room, Garoben drops her hostage, Gurio Umino, another of Usagi’s friends and boyfriend to Naru. Beware of Garoben’s vicious assault. Tuxedo Mask will help you a little but you’re on your own after that. BOSS 5: ZOISITE (Zoycite)* HIT AND PIVOT NG, REGEN GANG NG, TUXEDO KAMEN NG Zoisite is one of Queen Beryl’s Four Generals. He’s very vain and hates to do most of the dirty work himself. Here, he controls the dock workers. Only by defeating him will the spell be broken, but he’s fast and can teleport. Watch his movements and be on guard. You’re on your own in this fight. *Zoisite was originally a man. In the North American version, Zoisite was made a girl. BOSS 6: TWIN KYULENE HIT AND PIVOT OK, REGEN GANG NG, TUXEDO KAMEN NG As if Kyulene herself wasn’t bad enough, she becomes cloned and both of them pick up where the original left off. Luckily there are no enemies to assist the twin yoma in this battle. Plus, there’s nowhere to fly inside the mansion. BOSS 7: BAKENE HIT AND PIVOT OK, REGEN GANG NG, TUXEDO KAMEN NG Bakene was one of the legendary Seven Devils who took the form of a fat blue cat. Once awakened, Bakene begins his rampage. His intelligence is basically primal and his instincts are like those of wild animals. To return Bakene back to his normal state, you must defeat him which won’t be easy. BOSS 8: ZOISITE & KUNZITE (Zoycite & Malachite) HIT AND PIVOT NG, REGEN GANG NG, TUXEDO KAMEN NG (ZOISITE) HIT AND PIVOT OK, REGEN GANG NG, TUXEDO KAMEN NG (KUNZITE) Kunzite is the leader of the Four Generals and is Zoisite’s lover and mentor. The two make a powerful tag team against the Sailor Senshi. To beat both of the Generals, attack one, then go for the other. FINAL BOSS: QUEEN BERYL HIT AND PIVOT OK, REGEN GANG NG, TUXEDO KAMEN NG The final showdown takes place inside Beryl’s inner sanctum as she begins to battle. Naturally, she’s the strongest of all the enemies put together and has some powerful attacks as well. Only by using the best strategy can you destroy Queen Beryl and rid the world of the Dark Kingdom! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LEGALESE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Special thanks goes out to Bryce Griffith (Youkai Kouga) for posting his FAQs page.
