[10CR] /==1.===================================/ | Foreword/Mission Statement | /===============================[1FOR]==/ It has now been twenty-four years since the world was first introduced to "Dragon Quest." It is one of the most popular and persistent RPG series in existence, spawning a myriad of sequels, remakes, and spin-offs over the years. To me, all this attention is well-founded, as it is also (in my opinion) one of the best RPG series for a console system. Although the games after the initial trilogy have little to do with each other plotwise, they are extremely consistent--same style of monsters, same style of world, same style of storytelling. Some would say this makes them boring, but with the application of some imagination there is a lot that these games have to offer. The early games may not have aged terribly well, but they are still important, and they set the stage for a long line of whimsical creatures in memorable worlds. However, because of Nintendo of America's tight reign on the content of its games in the '80s and early '90s, much of what we saw in the U.S. was watered- down or otherwise altered. For example, have you ever heard of a Puff-puff? This mysterious massage technique is well-known to fans of recent "Dragon Quest" games, including "Dragon Quest VIII," but you may not know that it actually made its debut in the Japanese release of the very first game! (In the American release, the woman who offers the Puff-puff says instead that she has no tomatoes. For the record, Nintendo, there is a huge difference between a Puff-puff and a lack of tomatoes! :-P) This is where I enter the story. I have had a life-long interest in the languages of the Far East, Japanese in particular. The characters used in writing Japanese have always fascinated me, but the language itself, with its complex honorific grammar system, strange usage of particles, and yes, even those beautiful kanji characters, seemed all but impenetrable. But now, finally, I've decided to buckle down and learn Japanese, using video games as a tool-- and sharing the fruits of my labors with you, O Lucky Readers! Therefore, I am providing my translation of the original Japanese version of "Dragon Quest" so that you can see along with me where it differs from the American version. (And it just seemed like a good idea, since no one else had done it yet!) But more than just that, I am also asking for your help, O Knowledgeable Readers. If you are reading this, and you know Japanese (or at the very least you know it better than I do), and you find a mistake, please do not hesitate to send me an email so I may correct it, and you will be credited in the next release. As one final note, let me point out that this is not a walkthrough. It is simply the script, plus a mini-guide to get you playing in Japanese if you wish. Just a little trivia: ・The Japanese release used a password system of twenty characters to save progress. The battery-packed RAM method was added onto the American release, which was published a year after "Dragon Quest III" became the first Japanese game in the series to use it. ・As the first game of the series, it introduced many recurring elements. Among these are: the Nameless Hero, the "Dragon Quest March," the ubiquitous Slime, the Puff-puff, and a peculiar absence of dragons throughout the majority of the game. ・Among the elements that didn't see further use: dungeon music that plays in a lower key and tempo as you descend to lower levels, and the requirement of torches or magic to light the way. Well, that's enough for this long introduction, O Intrepid Readers. It is my sincere hope that you enjoy this guide, and perhaps even find it useful! /==2.===================================/ | Transcription/Translation | /===============================[2TRA]==/ In this section, I have transcribed the game text. First, the text is reproduced exactly as it appears in the game (there shouldn't be any typos at this point, but the possibility remains); then I present my translation of the original text into English. This translation is very literal, but it is as accurate as possible to the best of my knowledge, though some passages were altered to make better-sounding English. To make mistakes easier to spot, I have marked passages that I am unsure of with "(?)" although in all probability there are also other errors that I don't realize I have made. Also, even after two full playthroughs and a text dump, there is still the chance that I haven't seen 100% of the game text. If you know of anything that is missing, please let me know and I will try to fill in the empty spots sometime in the future. I have marked the beginning of each "Act," as well as each major and minor section, with a distinctive header to aid in browsing. Likewise, I have marked each separate event or conversation with "★" to make it stand out. Where the player's name appears in the text I have used the name えっくす (Ekkusu)--the Japanese pronunciation of the letter "X." The text in this file is from the Famicom version of the game, but the MSX and MSX2 versions *should* be exactly the same throughout. I have tried, as much as possible, to arrange the text in the order it would be seen in actual gameplay, but for organization's sake some of the ordering may have been changed. As a supplement to this file for those who actually want to play the game in Japanese, I have also made maps of the entire game with the Japanese names of items and locations (with translations, of course) available on GameFAQs.com. These can also be used with the U.S. version, as only the names will be significantly different. And now, without further ado, I present to you: ドラゴンクエスト Dragon Quest ________--------~~~~~~~~ ACT I ~~~~~~~~--------________ ＰＲＩＮＣＥＳＳ　ＬＯＲＡ ~~~~~~~~--------________ ________--------~~~~~~~~ ==I.A.========================== ----<<<<{{{{(((( INTRODUCTION ))))}}}}>>>>---- ========================[AINT]== ★King ＊「おお　えっくす！ 　　ゆうしゃロトの　ちをひくものよ！ 　　そなたのくるのをまっておったぞ。 Oh, X!

[NOTE: Interestingly, here (and apparently every place where the phrase がよい appears) the symbol used to end the sentence is the handakuten (゜) by mistake, rather than the full-stop (。). It's not easy to notice in-game, however. The handakuten is designed to be placed on the line above the kana, so it is drawn in the bottom region of the space and still looks basically the same as the full-stop.] ★Woman: S ＊「いーえ　わたしは 　　ローラひめじゃないわ。 No, I am not Princess Lora. ★Guard: Inn ＊「おうさまに　つたえてくれ 　　ローラひめの　そうさくたいは 　　ぜんめつしたと… Please tell the King that the search party for Princess Lora was annihilated... ＊「わたしも　もう　だめだ… 　　ぐぶっ… I too am done for...

Once you have made your choices, press the Start Button. If you choose to ＳＴＡＲＴ a new game, you will be confronted with the message なまえを　いれてください ("Please Enter a Name"). You may enter up to four characters, choosing from the forty-six hiragana, as well as the small versions of "tsu" (sokuon) and the "Y-row" (sutegana). You can also use the ゛ (nigori or dakuten) and ゜ (maru or handakuten) diacritic marks, which each takes up its own character rather than combining with kana. You cannot enter a space in your name. Two commands are available on the bottom row, もどる ("Back") and おわり ("End"). If you choose to ＣＯＮＴＩＮＵＥ a previous game, you are presented with the message ふっかつの　じゅもんを　いれてください ("Please Enter Spell of Restoration"); this is the password system for the game. The Spell of Restoration consists of twenty hiragana, chosen from the sixty-four choices available on this screen. On the bottom row are three commands, もどる ("Back"), すすむ ("Advance"), and おわり ("End").

On the upper-left is your mini-status window, which contains your name and most important stats, and has already been covered in the previous section. On the bottom is the text window, and in the upper-right is the Battle Command Window. It looks like this: 　┌────コマンド────┐　　　　　┌────Command ────┐ 　│　たたかう　　じゅもん　│　　→　　│　Fight 　　　Spell 　　│ 　│　にげる　　　どうぐ　　│　　　　　│　Escape　　　Tool　　　│ 　└────────────┘　　　　　└────────────┘ Choosing "Fight" or "Escape" will execute the command immediately, while choosing "Spell" or "Tool" will bring up a list of options, as in walkabout mode. Here is a list of the text you can see in battle, and what just happened if you see it: ★Beginning of Battle ＿＿＿＿が　あらわれた！ ____ appeared! コマンド？ Command? ＿＿＿＿は　にげだした！ ____ runs away! えっくすが　みがまえるより　はやく ＿＿＿＿は　おそいかかってきた Before X is ready the ____ quickly rushes him. ★Player: Fight えっくすの　こうげき！ X's attack! かいしんの　いちげき！！ A rewarding blow!! ＿＿＿＿に　＿＿ポイントの ダメージを　あたえた！ Gave __ points of damage to the ____! ミス！ ダメージを　あたえられない！ Miss!

Due to the fact that the order is largely determined by user input, each block under each heading may appear in almost any order. I've put the welcome message first and one of the possible farewell messages last, but beyond that each block is basically its own entity. I apologize for the lack of order, but there's nothing I can do about it short of cluttering up the whole section with flow charts. ;-) Keep in mind that はい is "Yes" and いいえ is "No"; using the lists in the following sections you can see what is for sale. Good Luck! ;-) ★The Inn ＊「たびびとの　やどやへ　ようこそ。 　　ひとばん　＿＿ゴールドですが 　　おとまりに　なりますか？ Welcome to the Traveler's Inn.

Since the magic spells have nonsense names, my "translation" here is simply how I would expect the word to be pronounced if it were actually English. Also given is the corresponding spell name from the North American version. A translation is provided for spells which give in-game text, and a short description is given for all spells. If more than one spell uses the same text, I will only list it for the first occurrence.

For some names written in katakana it is difficult to tell exactly how the game designers intended the name to be pronounced, so I have put forth my best guess. The names as translated in the North American release are also provided.

I decided to add it for the sake of people using this as a guide to play the game since the numbers in the Japanese version are slightly different from those in the North American release from Level 17 onward.

Being a game that uses a password save feature means that it is relatively easy to pick up the game from any point, and even to play under special circumstances using passwords that can be discovered through experimentation. Here are several interesting "urawaza," as they are called, that I have come across. ・Starts at full strength, but with no quests completed. まむずいか　かるたとみぐじ ぞなのへみ　まよれ Name: はにまる Level: 30 HP/MP: 200/210 Str/Agi: 129/120 Gold: 65535 Equipment: Weapon: None Armor: None Shield: None Items: Medicinal Herb--6 Princess: No ・Starts at the ending, with everything completed. ぶぶちまこ　すぼとるてすた てめこそつ　すろた Name: きすまみ Level: 30 HP/MP: 190/181 Str/Agi: 140/130 Gold: 65535 Equipment: Weapon: Sword of Loto Armor: Armor of Loto Shield: Mirror Shield Items: Medicinal Herb--2, Key--4, Fairy Flute, Princess's Love, Mark of Loto, Rainbow Drop, Warrior's Ring, Torch, Cursed Belt Princess: Yes ・Start with absolutely nothing. Gives the lowest Str/Agi growth, presumably average HP/MP growth (since it's normally not possible to have the same growth rates for all stats at the same time). おけすちな　のへむゆるがご ぜづびあお　けすち Name: ００００ Level: 1 HP/MP: 15/0 Str/Agi: 3/3 Gold: 0 Equipment: Weapon: None Armor: None Shield: None Items: None Princess: No ・Has two Sun Stones and two Marks of Loto. くわたやま　くらしのずかな かはたはら　くろま Name: にょ２ふ Level: 17 HP/MP: 90/90 Str/Agi: 72/78 Gold: 11705 Equipment: Weapon: Bamboo Pole Armor: Chain Mail Shield: None Items: Medicinal Herb--4, Key--2, Torch, Sun Stone, Mark of Loto, Mark of Loto, Death Necklace, Torch, Cursed Belt, Sun Stone Princess: No ・Has two Death Necklaces. くわたきよ　はらしのずかな かはたはら　いしい Name: ねるおふ Level: 25 HP/MP: 157/161 Str/Agi: 102/100 Gold: 11676 Equipment: Weapon: Bamboo Pole Armor: Chain Mail Shield: None Items: Medicinal Herb--4, Key--2, Princess's Love, Sun Stone, Death Necklace, Torch, Death Necklace, Torch, Cursed Belt, Sun Stone Princess: Yes ・Has two Staffs of Clouds. いのきばば　つるたちようし ゆうりきふ　じなみ Name: はる６さ Level: 26 HP/MP: 165/154 Str/Agi: 117/105 Gold: 38196 Equipment: Weapon: None Armor: Steel Armor Shield: Leather Shield Items: Medicinal Herb--6, Key--1, Staff of Clouds, Torch, Sun Stone, Death Necklace, Rainbow Drop, Warrior's Ring, Staff of Clouds, Mark of Loto Princess: No ・This is a fairly normal password, except for the password itself, which literally reads "It's Yuji Horii and Enix's Dragon Quest!" with slight modifications to fit with the available kana. Has two Silver Harps. ほりいゆう　じえにつくすど らごくえす　とだよ Name: おっ゜て (I'm not even sure how to pronounce this--"Otte," maybe?) Level: 25 HP/MP: 157/161 Str/Agi: 102/100 Gold: 43227 Equipment: Weapon: Steel Sword Armor: Leather Clothes Shield: None Items: Medicinal Herb--1, Key--3, Staff of Clouds, Silver Harp, Silver Harp, Torch, Torch, Rainbow Drop, Princess's Love, Death Necklace Princess: Yes ・This password also appears to be a complete sentence, but I can't figure it all out. It appears to say something about Marukatsu Famicom, a Japanese magazine, calling it "the best in the world." Has two Princess's Loves and two Silver Harps. まるかつは　やつはりせかい いちだつた　のだよ Name: ４きね８ Level: 20 HP/MP: 138/118 Str/Agi: 92/82 Gold: 64673 Equipment: Weapon: Sword of Loto Armor: None Shield: Mirror Shield Items: Medicinal Herb--2, Key--2, Staff of Clouds, Silver Harp, Dragon Scale, Princess's Love, Rainbow Drop, Fairy Flute, Silver Harp, Princess's Love Princess: Yes ・Heheh....

Don't you understand?! Idiot!" りゆうおう　おまえはもうし ぬわかつた　かばか Name: ねすゃ１ (I'm not sure how to say this one either--perhaps "Neswa Ichi"?)

Has two Fairy Flutes. ふるいけや　かわずとびこむ みずのおと　ばしや Name: ４ひえて Level: 10 HP/MP: 51/40 Str/Agi: 34/31 Gold: 15143 Equipment: Weapon: Club Armor: Chain Mail Shield: None Items: Medicinal Herb--4, Key--1, Fairy Flute, Mark of Loto, Cursed Belt, Spring Water, Silver Harp, Sun Stone, Fairy Flute Princess: No ・"People say that Armor Knight and Demon Knight are pleasant." :-/ Has two Sun Stones. よろいのき　しやあくまのき しはうれし　そうだ Name: た７えひ Level: 26 HP/MP: 180/151 Str/Agi: 117/94 Gold: 33088 Equipment: Weapon: Steel Sword Armor: Leather Clothes Shield: Mirror Shield Items: Medicinal Herb--2, Key--5, Chimera Wing, Sun Stone, Silver Harp, Warrior's Ring, Rainbow Drop, Princess's Love, Chimera Wing, Sun Stone Princess: Yes ・This is a list of Japanese cities: "Toukyou, Nagoya, Oosaka, Kitakyuushuu."

Yes, that's the same name as the magazine appeared in two of the previous passwords! Begins at Level 1, but with pretty much everything, including all the best equipment. どべじでわ　ごぜむあずるわ げずりなの　がだた Name: まるかつ Level: 1 HP/MP: 15/0 Str/Agi: 4/4 Gold: 0 Equipment: Weapon: Sword of Loto Armor: Armor of Loto Shield: Mirror Shield Items: Dragon Scale (unequipped), Fairy Flute, Rainbow Drop, Warrior's Ring, Mark of Loto, Silver Harp, Sun Stone, Staff of Clouds Princess: No /==9.===================================/ | Version History | /===============================[9VER]==/ v0.90 ・Initial release.

Started playing 02/05/2007 Finished game 02/27/2007 Submitted 02/27/2007 v2.50 ・Altered the layout for the Transcription section, which is now divided into "Acts." ・Added a translation of the back of the box of the Japanese Famicom version. ・Changed the item "Spring Water" to "Holy Water." ・Corrected a couple more minor errors. ・Added a little to the "Thanks" section. ・Made one last tweak to some of the maps, adding the floor numbers. Submitted 03/20/2007 v3.00 ・Broke up the intro a bit, placing pieces into other sections where appropriate. ・Added information on Command Windows and some other text which is gameplay- related rather than plot-related. ・Added the levels in which spells are acquired and translations of some spell effects. ・Reorganized the "Transcription" section again, subdividing some of the main headings. Submitted 05/22/2007 v4.00 ・Devised fancy new section headers, hopefully making the file easier to browse. ・Changed the title to "Game Script and Mini Playing Guide," since this really is a little bit more than just the script. ・Changed the search codes in the Table of Contents. ・"Version History" section has grown up quite a bit--moved it to the end. ・Added "Experience Chart" section. ・Proofread and cleaned up translation. ・Made other miscellaneous alterations in some sections. ・Revised maps again (last time, I promise!), adding treasure data, attempting to increase legibility, and shrinking larger maps to fit on the screen with less scrolling, as well as adding a coordinate system to the "World" map. Submitted 01/07/2008 v4.10 ・Moved "Command Windows" section to follow the "Transcription." ・Added the new "Special Passwords" section! ・Slight changes to "Castle of the Dragon King" and "World" maps--I think I'm *really* done with them now! ;-) Submitted 01/16/2008 v4.11 ・Changed "Holy Water" back to "Spring Water." I ran a search with both readings in conjunction with the words "Dragon Quest," and I got nearly eight times as many hits with the latter. ・Also did other itty-bitty teeny-tiny things. Submitted 01/22/2008 (I really need to try harder to make sure things are done before submitting so I don't end up with three updates in the same month again! ;-) v4.12 ・Had an issue with my Final Fantasy maps, so for consistency I relabelled these as well...and then revised them again. O_o ・Added some extra release info to the file header. ・Added a kind of flow chart to guide the reader through Yes/No questions in the dialogue (let me know how legible it is). ・Added a bit of trivia about the game to the Foreword. Submitted 08/01/2008 v5.00 ・Changed "Faerie" to "Fairy" (I made the decision that I will not change the spelling of terms when the official translation is already equivalent; updated the maps one final time to match. ・Removed the kanji transcriptions. (I realized it was less than useful for a non-fluent speaker like myself to translate from Japanese *to* Japanese--it was redundant and silly, and served little purpose.) ・Changed the format of the Magic List. ・Reordered the Item, Magic, and Monster Lists to match the game's internal data. ・Added a section for Shopping and expanded Battle Command Windows to include battle text. ・Reformatted the text to include in-game line breaks.
