[00016] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I- Intro [00001] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There are no FAQs or walkthroughs for this anywhere, and it's pretty hard. Even harder than the first one. 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 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 and its prequel. 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 stages 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 (some can make you go away from the solution, there are tricks). Puzzle 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 Puzzle Mode, since you can't accelerate the outcoming row of balloons. Button A: your shot button, your main attack. Unike the prequel, if you shoot a single balloon, it won't pop it, unless it's a small balloon, 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 (your only call). Gray balloons can only be exploded with combos this time. No item will make you a gray shooter. Button B: no use for this mode... 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- Differences from Prequel [00004] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Number of shots left: No big secrets, in all stages, you will be able to shoot only the number of times shown there. It's in the right, and will decrease every time you shoot, so don't rush yourself, there is no time limit =) Misses: every time you lose a stage, it will be counted one more miss. When you reach 99 misses, that means ... that means you're just making too much mistakes, and there is a secret after the 60 stages, so you should focus on finishing them before reaching 99 misses. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- V- Items [00005] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some combinations of three or four 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. ------------ Single Shot: ------------ OO OO This is what allows you to destroy single balloons with your shots. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VII- Puzzle Mode Explanation [00006] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 Puzzle Stage Game (pazuru suteeji 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: - koko wa ikko jawarenai fuwafuwa 2 no ruuru dake yo - fiirudo no fuusen wo zenbu keshite ne - kimerareta kaisuu de zenbu kesereba kuria yo - koko de wa hissatsu waza wa tsukaenai yo - chibichibimuun mo kitekurenai wa yo - aitemu wo jouzu ni tsukatte ne - sutaato botan wo osu to aitemu setsumei ga deru wa - gibuappu shitaitoki wa serekuto botan wo oshite ne - yameru toki wa pasuwaado wo oboete oku to benri yo - pasuwaado wo ireru to tsudzuki kara asoberu no - wakatta? jaa sorosoro hajimemashou Which says something like: You can't shoot one balloon alone, the rules is only a chain of at least two, the field will have balloons and you have to clear it to go to the next stage, and there is no help from upcoming balloons nor Chibichibimoon, but items will help you, the start button will give you an explanation on these, and the select button will give up the current stage, if you give up (yameru) you'll receive a password and you can use this password to continue the game which can be good, understood? Then let's begin already! I don't know japanese enough to translate it literally, but that's the basics... 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: - (Eternal?) Sailor Moon - Sailor Mars - Sailor Mercury - Sailor Jupiter - Sailor Venus - Sailor Star Fighter - Sailor Star Healer - Sailor Star Maker Nothing to read this time... At the beginning of any stage, Tukedo 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? [00007] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shots: the number of shots you can shoot, or, more specific, your restriction. Difficulty: from 1 to 15 asterisks, the more, the harder. Screen: You can see the initial screen here as the game shows. Balloons are: B = blue balloon Y = yellow P = pink G = green M = maroon, or brown X = gray b, y, p, g, m? small balloons ________ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is me drawing. It won't get much better. ________ |BBPBBB| |BPYPBB| |BBPBGG| |BBGBGG| |GGGBGG| |GGgGGG| | | | | 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. Short: the sequence of rows you have to shoot. It can simplify the solution even more to you, like just shoot 3rd and 4th column and you won. Simple numbers, and if you need to shoot twice before getting the item, it will be explained too. Examples: 2 - 3 - 2 - H - 5 Note: when I say "bottom" during the walkthrough, I mean the farthest row from the sailor point of view. - Numbers mean the column you'll shoot, from left to right. - V means you have to get the vertical shot item. - H means you have to get the horizontal shot item. - C means the color shot item. - S means the single shot item. - A means you should avoid the item. - X means you'll have at least one spare shot in the end of a stage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IX- Easy Stages [00008] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Background: (01 to 10) black, little number of things glowing. (11 to 20) a little more glowing and crystals than before. - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 01 Shots: 2 Difficulty: * Screen: ________ |BBbBBB| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | How to do: Two solutions: you can get the horizontal shot and shot the rest, or you can grow the small one and shoot the structure.

What you can do is shot a single balloon with the vertical shot. But take the blues away first, or else you would have to shoot once more. Short: 2 - 1 - V - 4 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 03 Shots: 3 Difficulty: * Screen: ________ |BBYYYY| |PPB | | P | | | | | | | | | | | How to do: So easy you can do it in two ways. You have one shot for each color. Yellow first will give you correct chains of blues and pinks, so they will be all vulnerable to you. You don't need a horizontal shot, it's optional. Short: 4 - 3-3 or 4 - 3 - H - 3 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 04 Shots: 3 Difficulty: * Screen: ________ |PPYBBB| |PPYBBB| |PPYBBB| | | | | | | | | | | How to do: just by not getting the vertical shot, or by shooting the yellows last. There are six possible solutions talking about order. Short: 4 - 2 - 3 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 05 Shots: 8 Difficulty: *** Screen: ________ |yBBBBB| |YppppB| |yBBBBB| | | | | | | | | | | How to do: well, don't get tempted for the pattern on the left, you won't be getting the vertical shot, just the horizontal from pinkies. You can spend three shots, one to get rid of blues and two to limit the yellows to one small. Then, form one horizontal shot, and shoot it to give away the last row. Simple enough? Short: 2 - 1-1 - 2 - 3 - 4-4 - H - 5 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 06 Shots: 8 Difficulty: ** Screen: ________ |YBPPBY| |PPPPPP| |YbBBbY| | | | | | | | | | | How to do: no items... the possibilities are almost non-existant. You can only win, mostly. Just start by taking out pinks and letting those smalls small. You need them to put together with the other blues behind. Never forget, growing smalls cost one shot. Short: 3-3 - 1 - 2-2 - 5-5 - 6 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 07 Shots: 9 Difficulty: *** Screen: ________ |BBBbbb| |BBBbbb| |BBBbbb| | | | | | | | | | | How to do: you have the perfect weapon for the job: horizontal balloons, all together. Start by using the first row to disappear with the left side, and the second row will give up the item you need to take the third row in one shot. Short: 4 - 5 - 6-6-6 - 5 - 4-4 - H - 4 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 08 Shots: 5 Difficulty: ** Screen: ________ |PBBBYB| |PBBBYB| |pbBBYB| | | | | | | | | | | How to do: you have only five shots, so you have to use them wisely, which in this case means vertically. Don't grow the smalls!

Short: 1 - V - 2 - 6 - V - 5 - 4-4 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 10 Shots: 6 Difficulty: *** Screen: ________ |PPppPP| |YYyyYY| |BBbbBB| | | | | | | | | | | How to do: there is just one way to miss here. And it's by shooting the horizontal shots all wrong. You can take six of them at once, you know. Short: 3-3 - H - 3 - 4-4 - H - 4 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 11 Shots: 11 Difficulty: **** Screen: ________ |PYYYYP| |BPYYPB| |BBPPBB| |yyyyyy| | | | | | | | | How to do: with eleven shots? This looks like a lot, but it's the right number. The exact number. They didn't leave any possibilities of making it in less than the amount of shots... the solution lies in the question: what to do with the pinks? And you just have to get them together. Use the horizontal shot formed by yellows, to get rid of the small yellows, and them shoot the middle twice, you found it. Short: 3 - 4 - 5-5 - H - 6 - 4-4 - 5-5 - 2-2 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 12 Shots: 6 Difficulty: **** Screen: ________ |YBBBPP| |YPPPYY| |YyYYyy| |b | | | | | | | | | How to do: six shots? That looks hard. But it's easy, alright. You see? These yellows cannot be there, you'll have to take them all down, and first. Grow these yellows and that small blue will meet its fate, in the horizontal shot that need the final 2 shots. Short: 2 - 5 - 6-6 - 4 - H - 4 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 13 Shots: 5 Difficulty: ***** Screen: ________ |YBBBBB| |YPBGBB| |YBBBBB| |BYBBBB| |BYBPBB| |BYBBBB| | | | | How to do: well, if you try to take the bigger combo of blues out first, you lose to the yellows. If you start with yellow, you lose to the singles, now there is a new color, green! So, what is gonna be? See, you don't need three vertical shots, you wouldn't even be able to use them, as you would need 6 shots. With 5 shots, all you can do is 2 verticals and one standard. Use only the verticals on column 1, and take out blues with your third shot, right? Short: 1 - V - 2 - 3 - 1 - V - 4 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 14 Shots: 6 Difficulty: *** Screen: ________ |yYYYyY| |pPPPpP| |yYYYyY| | | | | | | | | | | How to do: choosing well your targets, for a start. Aren't the horizontal shots obvious? If you shoot the wrong row, you'll get stuck with many smalls. Short: 4 - H - 5 - 4 - H - 5 - 4 - H - 5 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 15 Shots: 4 Difficulty: **** Screen: ________ |YYpYyY| |BBPBB | | PP | | BP | | | | | | | | | How to do: realize it. ... you have one entire row of garbage in the bottom, so, what to do? Horizontal shot. But how to form one? By taking one side, middle, and the the other. If you happen to start with pinks, you'll be stuck with smalls of different colors. And don't you form that Single Shot, you wouldn't have ammo enough to take out the bottom anyway... Short: 5 - 4 - 3 - H - 3 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 16 Shots: 9 Difficulty: *** Screen: ________ |BBYYBB| |bbBBbb| |BBPPBB| | | | | | | | | | | How to do: smalls can be annoying. But not when you have enough ammo to grow all of them. Take the first three out, and grow the second row into one big blue combo. Yellows will yellow. Short: 2 - 3 - 5 - 6 - 5 - 2 - 1 - 3-3 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 17 Shots: 10 Difficulty: **** Screen: ________ |BbbbbB| |PBYYBP| |PBYYBP| |PByyBP| | | | | | | | | How to do: the more you advance, the more difficulty you get. Not really a problem, as you are still at the easy part. You see a bottom filled with smalls and no horizontal shot possibility, so, the solution is vertically shooting. You can take away yellow, pink, and the entire center with 4 shots, and then you can avoid the two last verticals as you don't need them. The last 4 shots are grow kill grow kill =) Short: 1 - V - 3 - 6 - V - 4 - 5 - 2 - 5-5 - 2-2 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 18 Shots: 3 Difficulty: ** Screen: ________ |PPPYYY| |p BB y| | | | | | | | | | | | | How to do: stages with a number of shots like this have a very simple solution but... how about thinking for yourself a little? It's an easy stage, no one would be stuck for much time here. You see growable balloons, you see three colors, but only three shots,... the horizontal patterns are already there, shoot both and get the item only on the second. Got it? Short: 2 - 5 - H - 4 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 19 Shots: 5 Difficulty: ***** Screen: ________ |PYYYPP| |YBBBYP| |PYYYPP| |PPYPPP| |PYYPPP| |PPYPPP| |PYYPPP| | | How to do: this stage is the key. But only on figure. And the key to the key is to think over and stablish priorities, to open it you just have to shot them in the right order, which is the one that don't let balloons get alone, and approach the lonely ones. Right to left, you'll make them gather, and letting blues last, you'll only need five shots anyway. Your pattern is pink, yellow, yellow again, pink again, and finally blue, which could be fourth too. Short: 4 - 5 - 4 - 2-2 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 20 Shots: 8 Difficulty: ***** Screen: ________ |PPBBPP| |BBBBBB| |BBppBB| |PPbbPP| | | | | | | | | How to do: it's not time for harder stages yet. Now, it's time to figure this last 'easy' stage out. What you see is a big number of balloons, and a smaller number of shots, which you have to use wisely. The solution is: gather all pinks together. First, open your pink door, then take out all blues, the answer will be there. Short: 2-2 - 3 - 4-4-4 - 3-3 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / After this stage you'll ... just continue through stage 21... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- X- Normal Stages [00009] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Background: (21 to 30) same as before, but less crystals and more bubbles. (31 to 40) same, but with some disc-like figures. - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 21 Shots: 6 Difficulty: *****-* Screen: ________ |YYYGGG| |bBBBBb| |PPYYPP| | | | | | | | | | | How to do: 20 to 21 is a quick screen change, but the difficulty is bigger now. See your problem? Greens will become more and more common from now on. Now you will need a new ability: shooting twice before getting the item. But not yet! As you can see, you can reduce this stage to a pattern kind of like Stage 18. Then, you'll just have to follow a pretty much the same solution: yellows will be together if you avoid shooting the three first shots on them. Let the horizontal shot deal with smalls, and you're through. Short: 5 - 2-2-2 - 5 - H - 6 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 22 Shots: 5 Difficulty: ***** Screen: ________ |YYYbby| |yBBby | | yB | | | | | | | | | | | How to do: your first Color Shot! Isn't this nice? ... it isn't? Anyway, solution. With just five shots, the color shot will be really important, and you need to choose which color. ... chosen? Blue, right, yellows will be easy targets with a horizontal shot. Short: 4-4 - C - 4 - 3 - H - 2 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 23 Shots: 5 Difficulty: *****-* Screen: ________ |YBBGGG| |BYBPGP| |YBBPYP| |BYBPBP| |BBBPPP| | | | | | | How to do: your first Single Shot will be presented here. Oops, gave away the solution before explaining... well, carve that color shot out there and use it on blues, you'll understand it ... this pattern was used in the prequel for gray killer shots, but now, it's used to give you single shots. Which explode lonely balloons. Short: 4-4 - C - 3 - 2 - S - 5 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 24 Shots: 7 Difficulty: *****-* Screen: ________ |BBPBBB| |BPYPBB| |BBPBGG| |BBGBGG| |GGGBGG| |GGgGGG| | | | | How to do: that's big. A great double structure, green, and not one nor two, but three blue combos. Well, greens first. Sides then, and in the end, choose, will you get the horizontal, or the vertical shot? The remaining balloons are in the same column, so ...? ... it starts with a V.

Not talking about the stages, but about the puzzle mode. Some stages are evolutions of old ones, and this one really reminds of stage 12... the solution is the same, even. Just you have to avoid growing the yellow on the left. Horizontal shots will reveal themselves.

And then, the epifany! ... I'll make squares! Shoot yellow, and then, shoot the squares, ... the items will be completely optional, would you rather wait for them to fall, or go on with the stage quicker? Arrows will fall from the sky, but you'll survive it without a scratch!

You'll have to learn one now. Or else you wouldn't be able to take these balloons down with only three shots. This technique is called "Shoot and then ask". Well, all you want to do is take out the pinks with a color shot, so why waiting for the item to fall? Take out the yellows before that! Shoot quickly, if you get the item and shoot it on the yellows, you'll have smalls in the field by the third shot... it's the only solution. Learn this technique well, it will be useful later. ... this IS the fastest stage in the game!

It's not that hard ... you have to shorten the number of loners on the left. Just by one! And then you'll have two shots to deal with the floor. Short: 2 - S - 1 - 4 - H - 4 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 29 Shots: 6 Difficulty: *****-*** Screen: ________ |YYYYYY| |BbBbBb| |PPPPPP| |pPpPpP| | | | | | | | | How to do: this is tricky. And if you're thinking of bail out now, you're probably better not playing this, because this stage is easy compared to other later. But anyway, I have your solution right here, right? Discovering that was hard, but getting along with the solution was pretty easy... well, you have to form a horizontal shot to deal with this group of smalls, and how is that possible? They're on all columns! ... oh no, it's not that much of a problem, as they're the same colors of the bigger ones, ... start by shooting that one on the right, and using the pink combo. ________ |YYYYYY| |BbBbBb| 4shots |p p | | | | | | | | | | | Third and fourth shots go to the blues, so you get a horizontal ... be careful!

If you want a color shot, you should aim for the left side, the right side will collapse into an impossible problem. But it's not because you'll lose the color shot, it's because you'll spend one more shot to grow the wrong side. See? You have to use the color shot on greens, and yellows will be merged like they told you.

Well, you have four colors, but you'll shoot them all or not, because horizontal shots can be given to any column you want, if they hit the same row, they'll have the same effect.

You need to shot the entire fourth column with normal shots, vertical shots won't deal with grays. So start by grabbing the vertical shot and shoot in on the left corner.

Help me!! ... well, what's wrong with a big maroon X now, after so many harder stages... this one isn't easy too. But you happen to have possibility for 3 items with these front greens. So, what will it be? Single shots? If you had around 50 shots to spend, it would be great, ... but no, it's time for another color shot: ________ |MggggM| |BMGGMg| 9shots |BBMMGg| |bBMMgg| |BMggMG| |MgGGGM| | gG | | | Yes, do it on the right. Trust me. And then you shoot it, on the big maroon X! ________ |Bggggg| |BBGGGg| 7shots |bBgggg| |Bgg G| | | | | | | | | Do you understand now why the right side? Because it's the right choice.

To make you all go down. Did you want to use a color shot on the grays before? Wasn't you thinking of that some minutes ago? Now you'll get them! That's right, get the color shot and use it on the gray balloon: ________ |PPYYYB| |GGG GB| 5shots |PG B| |P | |P | | | | | | | And now you won another color shot! It's only one of the many things you can do with that lonely green there. You can use it on pinks or yellows too, see how open your options are here? That's what makes an easy stage.

But not hard enough, if you happen to learn well my new technique... well, this big structure can go down with single shots, but you have to choose wisely now: ________ |GggGGG| |G YMMM| 9shots |G PY b| | YP b| | PY b| | Y b| | | | | That's your right choice. I'll give you a solution that you happen to let you hold one shot left in the end! But only if you learn the technique. Now, the horizontal shot, for the yellows you let exposed: ________ |GggGGG| |G YY b| 7shots |G PP b| | P b| | Y | | | | | | | Take the middle down and listen carefully now: you need the vertical AND the horizontal, but you can't take them separately, because one destroy the other. So, what you have to do is learn the technique: "Shoot and then grab'em!" The master technique. When you shoot for the vertical, run to the horizontal and open it, and then run back to get the first item, and then you run to the right to use it, and run back to get the second item before it falls off! ________ | gg b| | H b| 3shots | b| | | | | |V | | | | | Opening both of them, and ________ | gg b| | b| 2shots | b| | ^| | ^| | ^| | | | H | See your shot there? ... maybe it's easier to get the horizontal item first and then the vertical, but that's what I could learn first, so, I decided to write it like this. But the alternate solutions are right below. Short: 2 - S - 2-2 - 4 - 5-5-5-5-5 - H - 4 - 4-4 - 1-4-V-6-H - 3 - X OR! 2 - S - 2-2 - 4 - 5-5-5-5-5 - H - 4 - 4-4 - 4-1-H-3-V - 6 - X - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Right after stage 60, you'll get a message from Luna: - kuria omedetou! misu kaisuu kai - misu kaisuu 99kai inaide kuria suru to - supesharusuteeji ni susumu koto ga dekiru no - zehi chousen shite ne anata nara dekiru wa! Which translates to "congratulations for clearing! You missed more than 99 times and can't go to the special stages, but next time, maybe you will be able to try on!" And then it's right back to the Title Screen... - / - / - ...! But actually! If you get less than 99 misses, messages are a little different: - kuria omedetou! misu kaisuu kai - misu kaisuu 99kai de kuria shita anata wa - supesharusuteeji ni chousensuru dekimasu and the options: - chousensuru (try on) - yameru (give up) Which means you can try the Special Stages now. Don't give up now! Go try them. The hardest Fuwa Fuwa Panic 2 puzzles ever. The walkthrough ends here. Ok, I will give you a gift.

All you can do from start is waste shots on yellows, and vertically screw the field. But the solution, the soultion is all you want. A special stage looks like this mess. A lot of items for you and you have to choose the right ones. Not the better ones, not the ones you like, the ones that will lead to the solution. First of all, dig a hole on the third column and get the item, you want to give yourself a color shot. ________ |B BBBP| |B BbG| 6shots |P bGP| |P GYP| |P yyP| |y | | | | | With your color shot, get rid of yellow. And now use your right corner vertical shot to get rid of the left. ________ | bbP| | GGG| 2shots | | | | | | | | | | | | The solution.

Well, some stages have obvious answers for some questions, like "what do I do with all these small pink balloons?" or "Which item do I choose?" ... but the solution lies in another thought. What to do with maroons. They can mess your items really bad. But now, in stage 62, you still don't know how to deal with that? You first want to get rid of that little blue, using a horizontal shot on the maroon line. But you'll only free yourself from the small if you use the technique "Shoot and then ask" on the first column, the left. Or you can follow it mirrored, whatever. ________ |pppppp| |GGGGGG| 5shots |ppGGpp| |ppGGpp| | bGGMM| | YYY| | y | | | Horizontal shoot the row with all the buggers, and you've practically won. Just use this color shot on pinks and shoot greens last. Next.

I always thought of gray balloons being heavy, even if they are there, they look like little iron balls. Strange thing. But if you want to get rid of all of them... with just a little set of items... you came to the right walkthrough! It's actually an easy hard stage. And you can do it, like this: first, get the vertical shot at your front and use it on the right corner: ________ |BXXXX | |BXXXX | 5shots |BYYXX | |b PPP | | XX | | YY | | | | | And then you "Shoot and then ask" the fourth column, for a big explosion of all the yellows: ________ |BXXXX | |B | 3shots |B | |b | | | | | | | | | Now you have a clear horizontal shot for this thin gray wall. And when you shoot these blue balloons, you already won this one.

You know what I mean. But anyway, you have all the items at your front. You just need to choose the right plan. First things first. You can't use single shots as you don't have 20 shots to spare. And you can't rely just on the horizontal because it will screw the field seriously, even with "Shoot and then do whatever" techniques. The green S will have to turn into another letter. First, shoot the vertical shot on the fifth column. ________ |GGGG G| |Gypb p| 10shots |GGGG G| |ypby G| |GGGG G| | YYY B| | y B| | | You're not getting it yet, it's ok. I just got it in the end too, at the first time. Shoot the greens and get your new vertical shot on the right. You'll use this one for the first column. ________ | GGG G| | ypb p| 6shots | GGG | | pby | | YYY | | y | | | | | I think you're starting to realize it. A lot of horizontal items waiting for you, and the between lines right there for using horizontal shots! So clever, right? Now you drop off that little yellow to the bottom, forget about color shots. The field is clear. Short: 1 - V - 5 - 1 - 6-6 - V - 1 - 2 - H - 2-2 - H - 2-2 - H - 3 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 65 Shots: 11 Difficulty: *****-*****-** Screen: ________ |GGGGGG| |GypbyG| |GGGGGG| |ypbyGG| |GGGGGG| |PYYYBB| |P y BB| |P | How to do: Ok, now they got it. It's a bug, you have to repeat the stage? No, it's worse than that. Now you don't have the vertical shot available on the right corner! So what? "Can I shoot the single shot now?" No! ... I mean, not yet. Well, the problem here is something I tried to explain before: one or two balloons changed, and it's a completely different stage. Start out by using "Shoot and then ask" for a color shot... at the yellows! ________ |PppbBB| |P b BB| 7shots |P | | | | | | | | | | | Ok, now you have something completely different for a solution. Vertical shoot the middle smalls and you have an use for single shots again. Short: 3-3-3-C - 4 - 1 - V - 3 - 5 - S - 4-4 - 2-2 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 66 Shots: 10 Difficulty: *****-*****-**** Screen: ________ |GPGPGP| |BYBMMM| |BYYBMM| |BYYYBM| |XGPPPM| |BXBBBX| |BGBPBG| |BGGBGG| How to do: that's something you don't see every day. A full field. Finally. And your verticals seem to get you nowhere because of the bottom. And then you see that pattern from the prequel... guided shots? That's how I used to call them. Here they are nothing! Nothing shots. Well, I'll give up two color shots in this stage, ok? Start by opening the pink one: ________ |GPGPGP| |BYBMMM| 8shots |BYYBMM| |BYYYBM| |XGPPPM| |BGGP | |BG B | |B | No, not yet. Maroons, now. ________ |GPGPGP| |BYBBB | 7shots |BYYYP | |BYYP | |XGPP | |BGGB | |BG | |B | "Oh no, you screwed the color shot!" Calm down. And shoot green and yellow. ________ |GPGPGP| |B BBB | 5shots |B PPP | |B P | |B B | |B | |B | | | See? Nothing is screwed. But now you'll have to use a hard technique... the "Shoot and the grab'em" ... you see, when you use one color shot on the two colored wall, the other one gets screwed, and now it's for true. But if you shoot both of them and then use them, you're getting to the full use of items. And that blue pillar can take the last shot. Short: 5-5 - 6 - 2-2 - 3-3-C-2-C - 3 - 1 - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / - / Stage 67 Shots: 13 Difficulty: *****-*****-***** Screen: ________ |PBBBBP| |XXXXYB| |BBBYBX| |YXGGYB| |YXGGBY| |GYXXYB| |PYBPBX| |PPBPPX| How to do: full field. Last five stages are full fields, probably. But let's deal with this one first and then worry about others. This is a really hard stage, a big confusion of colors, and one green eye in the middle. Kind of like Sauron, he's saying to you "don't mess with me. ... and give my ring back." Ok, it's not like that. Now, you'll see it solved. Start by shooting your center columns to completely expose the eye: ________ |PBBBBP| |XXXXYB| 11shots |BBBYBX| |YXGGYB| |YXGGBY| |GY YB| |PY BX| |PP | Right? Then, you shoot it, yes, make it blind. Don't bother with the item, single shots won't really help you here. But that horizontal you just opened, THAT is a good item. So, aim it. Second column. ________ |PBBBBP| |YY XYB| 8shots |YY YBX| |P BY| |P YB| | BX| | | | | Now, you're shooting another square, and giving away another single shot item. Shoot the bottom and that yellow-blue mess will be all shootable. ________ |P YYP| |P BB| 6shots |P BX| | YY| | BB| | X| | | | | And in the end, you can enjoy your little vertical shot on the last pinky standing.

A blue bucket with many holes and full of all colors of balloons. Not all colors, just the ones that this game can process. Except gray. We know we can't just shoot everything and try to get lucky. The solution comes from a deep thought and strategy and planning. Or like in this one, from an epifany. You try random things until one work. Starting by the sides will always make you lose, so, the middle. ________ |BbBBbB| |BYYYYB| 7shots |bPPPPb| |BgGGGB| |B B| | | | | | | Feeling like you threw a lot of shots away? But now comes the best part, the "Shoot and then ask", do it to take pinks away before getting the horizontal item: ________ |BbBBbB| |BYYYYB| 5shots |bg b| |B B| |B B| | | | | | | And voila, the target row should be simple, and then you can deal with yellow, and those big bucket-forming-things.

But it's a trick, that's what they want you to think. Every puzzle lies. Well, this one is a bad liar, because you just have to form your field and double shoot. So, do it like this, spend five shots to prepare the soil: ________ |BBBBBB| |ByBByB| 4shots |BBBBBB| |PPpPPP| | | | | | | | | And now you take out those two on the left, and "Shoot and then ask" for the right part, ... you'll only have one shot to clean the final floor. Nice and easy stage for a change, I guess.

I really was expecting a full field for this moment. And it couldn't be more appropriate for the last stage. Actually, it's a little too straightforward, you don't have a lot of options here. First, deal with your only way, the blue: grow grow kill ________ |PpPPpP| |yyyYYY| 7shots |PPPPPP| |YYYyyy| |BBBBBB| |yYyyYy| |Y Y Y | | | Now let's carve out those next blues, don't grow yellows, it's a bad harvest. ________ |PpPPpP| |yyyYYY| 5shots |PPPPPP| |YYYyyy| |yYyy y| |Y Y | | | | | And then you got the super effective weapon. Color shot. Use it right away on the pinks. They were in your way with those two smalls there. ________ |yyyYYY| |y yyyy| 3shots |y yy y| | | | | | | | | | | Can you foresee the ending now? Use the color shot once again, three shots for the win. Please don't tell me you missed the last shot of the game. Especially by email.

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: A big "omedetou!!" can be read and a nice chibi picture with the five sailors and the three star lights together. Could be a better ending, but it's a major improvement from the prequel, anyway. A music plays, maybe unique. But I can't say that, never seen the Story Mode's ending... You hit a button, and the credits start to appear, with a big chibi Eternal Sailor Moon posing there. After the names stop appearing, the word "owari" is shown, it means the end. A black circle closes around to show only Sailor Moon's face and she says "owari" again, in a balloon. Actually it's fun, she blinks a lot. That's all, folks. What is wrong is that if you get here with 0 misses or 211 misses, it's always the same ending... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- XIV- FAQ [00013] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q- How do I pass Stage ? 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. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- XV- Password (pasuwaado) [00014] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using a hiragana chart (or knowing it, of course), you'll be able to use these passwords to start on advanced stages.
