~ Magical Circle Guru Guru ~
A door hull of unknown has opened.
A door that will suck you in as soon as you take a peek.
Time has been broken. The world has started to tremble.
If you don't hold on tightly, you'll be thrown off.
Ah, my heart is throbbing.
An invisible premonition expands.
This mystic feeling will, ah, be put into my kiss too.
Overflowing with feelings.
Is it real? Magic of Love.
A long time ago,
the evil Giri, who controlled devilish black magic,
attempted to dominate the world and unleashed many monsters.
Confronted by a formidable enemy,
the Kodai Kingdom asked for the help of a Dark Magic User from a particular tribe
and succeeded in sealing off Giri.
However, after 300 years,
the evil Giri is now freed from the seal and once again threatens the world.
To rid the world of this terror,
the chosen Hero and Magic User began their long and tough adventure.
We will now commence the ceremony for your departure.
The Hero Nike and the Magic User ukuri,
thou will begin thy journey long to rid the evil Giri.
O Almighty Lord, protect these two lamb...
They are indeed fortunate to receive his Holiness' blessing.
Do you swear to fight in the name of the Kodai Kingdom?
DO YOU SWEAR?
Huh? Wh-what? DO YOU SWEAR?
Huh? Wh-what? l SWEAR! l SWEAR!
You are now ready to begin your journey.
Here is the map.
Wow... Look, Kukuri, a map!
Wow! How wondertul!
Will thoses two be alright?
What do you want to do? His Majesty chose them...
Listen well. The future of the world rests on your shoulders.
You must defeat the Evil Giri.
But first, go to North Village.
We will open the door now.
Woah. So this is the Gem Plains?
Everything looks all right.
l think the King over exaggerated.
Where are you, wretched Monsters?
Come out wherever you are!
Hero defends.
Come on out from there, Hero!
Okay, here l come!
Hero, you're like a cockroach.
That was lucky. Nothing to it.
So Hero, our adventure begins here.
Yeah...
l'd love to see all the different countries around the world.
Meet many people, enjoy new experiences...
Even fly high in the sky.
Travel on a boat...
That's Zamelis lsland!
Have adventures.
And battles.
You will need the Ruby Ball to defeat me!
Face danger...
Use the Moonstone, Hero!
What's a Moonstone?
And then a dazzling light is released from the Moonstone. How wondertul!
So let's try to make this journey an enjoyable one no matter what happens, okay, Hero?
Oh Hero?
What did you say, my dear?
l'm too old to travel.
Where are you g,oing, Kukuri?
l was just kidding.
l'll start again.
So Hero, our adventure begins here...
l GOT lT! l GOT lT ALREADY!
Look! They're still here!
And so their LO,OOOOOOONG long journey began.
Oh, what a cute rabbit!
Look at these.
Let's take a rest.
We're now in unexplored territory.
Farewell, my precious homeland.
But we've only traveled a short distance.
GET GOlNG!
YES, SlR!!! GET GOlNG!
Where are we?
We must be around three quarters of the way since we're in the forest.
What, already?
l'm hungry.
l'm feeling a bit hungry, too.
What shall we do, Hero?
Wow! There are so many!
These are really huge!
Chattering Vine - a mysterious p.ant that is found in the Gem Plains.
Shut up!
The fruits around here are tough.
Let's try somewhere else.
Can l really eat them all? Wha about you?
No, l'm fine.
These are great!
You sure you're alright?
Yup.
Hero is being very careful.
l think l'll have some now.
They're all gone!
Oh no!
And l wasso hungry...
Oh that's right, l forgot.
l have some magic pills that Mother Witch made.
The old witch did?
She said that one pill would satisfy one's hunger.
Errrr, okay. l'll try one.
Oh no, Hero!!
lt's bitter, sour, spicy, and it tastes NASTY!!
That's strange... lt shouldn't be like that.
Let me try one.
No DON'T!
Are you ok?
l'll go and get you some water.
Thanks.
Aaargh, my mouth's on fire.
l just knew that something bad like this would happen.
Water... Where's some water?
H EEEEELP! SOMEBODY PLEASE HEEEELP!! Water... Where's some water?
H EEEEELP! SOMEBODY PLEASE HEEEELP!!
HEEEEELP! SOMEBODY PLEASE HEEEELP!! What's that?
What's the matter?
Please help me!!
That looks like fun!
ldiot! Monster! lt's a monster!
That's it!!
lt was Hero's first encounter with a monster.
Humanaid Manster Kasegi
So this is a monster?
l hoped that l would never have to meet one.
So, another Human-ssss.
Lord Giri will be very p,leased if l kill some Humans-ssss.
That's a really weird way to speak.
The fangs of a Kasegi hinder his ability to pronounce properly.
Thanks-ssss for ssss-sharing that information with me. But it's-sss not any of your concern-sss.
l'm ssss-sorry, but you're both going to die-ssss!
That's not going to be good for me!
Can't you say anything a little more courageous?
You can think-ssss of sss-something better to ssss-say in Heaven-ssss!
Damn it! l'm not going down like that!
Hero attacks.
But misses.
Misses.
HA! l fart in your face!
You're quick, but your ssss-swiordsmanship is terrible-sssss.
Leave me alone!!
All l can do is cheer for you from behind.
Why you...
This is how you sss-should use a ssss-sword!
Hero takes 2 points of damage.
What? Can't get up-ssss anymore-sssss?
Before l sssend you to the other world, let me tell you sss-something.
l've always wanted to use this line on someone.
Hero is taking a long time.
Oh no! Could it be that he has encountered a monster?
And is now being told something before he is sent to the other world?
Ok then.
Well first of all, the Magician, Lord Giri,
came to this-sss world 300 years-sss ago to conquer it-sssss.
But his-sss attempt was thwarted and he was sss-sealed by the human-sssss.
So what the old witch said was true.
And then what happened.?
Oh, ssss-so you've recovered, have you-ssss?
That was-ssss fast-sss. Here you go!
Well, that's-sss all. Story's-sss finished -sss.
Time to die-ssss!
Wait! Tell me more!
My, my, aren't you a demanding human-sss?
All right, l will-ssss.
Kukuri...
Заставка
The seal that was cast on Lord Giri was effective for only 300 years.
The fact that you're listening so carefully is bothering me-sss.
l don't know any more than that-sss.
And what else-sss...
Hero, are you all right?
Huh? ''ls your father's stomach all right?''
Why is she asking about my father's health at a time like this?
The mushroom soup-in North village is quite good considering its price.
What am l saying?
My father eats five bowls of rice for breakfast everyday!
Hey! Are you listening to what l'm saying -sss?
Who are you-sss?
Run, Kukuri!
So there was another one of you humans-sss?
Stay away!
Prepare to die-sss!
ls that the magic of Guruguru?
The symbol for fire, a triangle, is inscribed and then two strokes are followed.
Lizard's Taii
Guruguru Lizard's Tail This spell is called ''L'izard's Tail''.
This spell is called ''Lizard's Tail''.
lt is an attack spell that releases a ball of fire and engulfs its target.
Kukuri.
Hero.
Hero, l'm so relieved!
l was so scared!
l was really scared too!
Kukuri, you did it!
l did, but...
l wanted to cast one earlier, thoug ...
Look!
Oh, no clue! No clue!
l know that it's leaving it a bit late...
But l think l ought to learn how to use a sword.
l'm so bad at magic...
l should've mastered more Guruguru before.
Their first battle leff both of them lost in their own thoughts.
l'm soooo hungry!
However, these thoughts were quickly forgotten.
Oh, that was wondertul! Just beautiful!
That really was stupendous!
You are the world's saviors.
Just like in the tales.
Heroes. Heroes.
l'll say it one more time. Heroes!!
Kukuri was frightened.
Oops. l'm sorry. l thought you were a monster.
Who is this?
Just some old fart.
l am the village chief of North Village.
l was going to ask you to come to our village for a feast.
And reward you with a treasure.
Are you injured, oh wondertul sir?
Hero has jumped ship.
And so the party headed to North Village.
Ah, there it is! North Village is at the base of Mount Saw.
So this is North Village.
lt's cursed.
That's right.
lt's the work of monsters.
Ok then. We'll take our leave now.
l beg you to help us, please.
The village has become this way ever since the monsters started to live on Mt. Saw-edge.
Everybody. A Hero has arrived to help us!
The village chief called the villagers.
WELCOME!
Look.s lik'e we're in a real mess this time.
Well, these things happen
Come, eat! Eat your fill!
Today was our village's festival, but we changed it to a welcoming party.
We're so relieved now that you're here.
lt's like we're in one of those old kung fu movies.
Our village's ancient, traditional dance, the Kita Kita dance, has begun.
Um, can you just tell us what you want us to do?
You're right. Hey, you can stop dancing now.
The old man had been practicing hard for three days for this.
What we want you to do is to go to Mount Saw.
We've been mining Stardust from the mountain for many ages.
Star? You mean like the things in the sky?
That's right. You see, shooting stars from the heavens fall onto that mountain.
The discoverer of the stars, King Uruga l, established North Village to mine the mountain.
The Kodai Kingdom prospered and grew from the mining.
Stardusts are the best materials to use for swords.
But they can only be obtained from Mt Saw-edge so they are a valuable mineral.
However, monsters moved into the mountain and they cast a thick fog over the village.
lf you defeat the monsters, you will be rewarded with the village's sacred treasure.
Oh boy...
Can we really handle this job?
l wonder what kind of monsters are in the mountain.
Wait. Someone's near.
Monsters? At this time of night?
No, that's not what l'm talking about.
Over there. Past that house.
When' night falls, a ghost can be heard moaning...
''GlVE ME SOME EXPERlENCE POlNTS!''
Good evening, Hero.
l didn't mean to scare you.
l've really wanted to meet you.
l'm Zaza. This is my sister, Migu, and my friend, Toma.
Are you really going to .the mountain to get rid of the monsters?
Yeah, well l am...
The Hero!
Hero loves using close-up shots!
Hero eh?
What's so funny about that?
Nothing at all. lt's just that my sister's tickling me!
Well, make her stop, then!
Anyways, l don't believe a stranger from Kodai.
Why not?
l'll believe you if you show me some magic.
And l'm asking why you don't trust us.
Oh, he just wants to see some magic.
Even yesterday he...
''Fireball!''
What were you doing, onii-chan?
lsn't that right, onii-chan?
Shut your mouth!
l wanna see some magic too!
You guys... Show them, Kukuri!
What?
Well, ok then.
YAY!!
Don't you need to chant some spell?
Ssshhh! Quiet!
Stand back. lt could be dangerous.
Hey, don't you think doing this kind of thing in the middle of the night is fun?
l'm nine. How old are you, Nike?
Me? l'm thirteen.
Hey, do you wanna hear a really scary ghost story?
No way!
l'm bad with those.
Hey! Stop fooling around!
Was that magic just then?
Something like a fireball went under the ground.
lt was too fast for me. l didn't see a thing.
Hey, your back is all scorched.
What's wrong, onii-chan?
Oh, it looks like that impressed him.
No, l think that he pissed in his pants.
Odd... lt should stay afloat above the circle when there are no monsters nearby...
l wonder where it went?
Meanwhile, nearby the village...
Ratmen, each with a huge wrinkle between their eyebrows, came to the village.
Ratman Ratmen, each with a huge wrinkle between their eyebrows, came to the village.
O, what a dump of a village this be!
Doth Hero really stayeth here?
l knoweth not.
But the slayer of Kisegi doth here be.
A Kisegi slain? The strength of the Kisegi doth like a slug be.
Surprised will the Hero be when he rises from his slumber to the blade of my sword.
However, 'tis in the magic Guruguru doth our Lord Giri's interests lie rather than in the Hero.
Guruguru? Doth such magic really exist?
Even if 'tis true, 'tis no match against O' Lord Giri's dark magic.
Oh God. Saying all this prose has made me tired.
l started to forget who l was for a second.
You can say that again!
Onwards my men! Death to the Hero!
Magic Circle spell, Underground Viper
The triangle which is the fire symbol is the base for this spell.
lt is an attack spell that travels underground
searching for monsters by detetecting their footsteps.
Undergraund Viper searching for monsters by detecting their footsteps.
One more spell! One more spell!
Okay. That one didn't go too well.
Here we go!
Yay!
Keep your eyes peeled this time.
She's doing well. The battle must have done her some good.
Ooops. l made a boo-boo.
Well done, Hero!
He's already killed some monsters.
He s already killed some monsters.
He's already killed some monsters.
Yes, well...
lt was nothing, really.
Take a look at them.
For a bunch of monsters, they sure look mighty funny.
By the way, what's that?
Oh that.
Don't worry about it.
lt's just a guardian deity, a guardian deity.
That's right. Don't worry. lt's harmless.
Hey, how long is that going to be there?
Maybe around three days...
lf we're lucky.
Huh?
Good morning to you, Hero!
Oh, you guys...
The powers that l saw from you last night...
were REALLY scary but they left a huge impression on me.
This kid's a strange one!
Come on! Let's go to the mountains together and fight those monsters!
Let's go!
To Mount Saw!
Are you guys really serious!?
And thus the children of North Village joined the party to vanquish the monsters.
Next, the Mount Saw's Dungeon.
I'm impressed at myself for walking alone on the side road.
Yet I unleash heartless words on those people that get tired from walking.
My small self gets enthusiastic as the wind plays with me.
And finally i stand here.
Today - a day where nothing worked the way it was supposed to.
But a plain life would sure be boring.
Tomorrow is a day where I live my life with you.
So this is a good way to get out of the rut.
Today - a day where nothing worked the way it was supposed to.
But a plain life would sure be boring.
Tomorrow is a day where I live ny life with you.
So this is a good way to get out of the rut.
With Zaza, Migu, and Toma joining our party,
it's getting somewhat noisy around us.
Onward to defeat the monster on Mount Saw.
Oh no! kukuri and Migu have been kidnapped by monsters!
Huh?! Even Kitakita Old man??
Next Time, Mahoujin Guruguru
Hurry, Nike. Kukuri kidnapped!
Please look forward to it.
