.hack//Legend of the Twilight
Tell me I don't understand anything, but
You always say those kinds of words, too
You find another way where we only pass each other by
And rush out into a world that's ending, you know?
Hello, hello, it's a New World!
Faster than light,
with monochromatic speed
Hello, hello, it's a New World!
Farther than time,
I run through it; you're so far away
The Legendary Hero
Man, they can't be performing...
...maintenance for twenty-four hours straight.
This time the Spring of Myst is empty!
Who's behind this prank?
Is there such a monster?
Upside down palm trees...
...empty Springs of Myst, never before seen monsters.
This is weird! Could they be...
I'll just log out and contact the system admi...
Eh! What's this?!
I, Shugo Kunisaki...
...upon entering junior high, had outgrown games.
CONGRATULATIONS
I was aware that a net game called "The World"...
...was popular around the world...
"The World" Limited Edition Character Campaign ...was popular around the world...
"The World" Limited Edition Character Campaign
...but I never had the urge to play it.
"The World" Limited Edition Character Campaign
What you get is...
Until today, that is.
What? You're kidding me...
You won too, big brother?
Won!?
So you went behind my back and entered me, Rena?
But the odds are astronomical...
...for the two of us to have won!
We're definitely twins!
You know, even if I won this...
I don't have the software for "The World".
No problem!
Before Mother and I left your place, I installed it on your computer.
Since we won...
Let's play "The World" together!
You're well prepared.
Let's go.
The latest net games are so realistic.
I haven't seen you in a while...
...and you've suddenly leveled up so much.
It's because I'm with a strong party...
...I've gained experience with this spear.
Man! That area's treasure boxes are mostly trapped!
Hey, form a party with me?
Owwww!
You have some nerve plowing into my breasts like that.
Do you want to...
...to try it again?
Yeah, right.
I might just get to like "The World".
Shugo, you're late!
You're my older brother Shugo, right?
C-Could you be...
Rena? My little twin sister... Rena?
Bingo! It's been a while, big brother.
Well, it's the first time meeting in this form.
I'm Rena the Heavy Blade! Pleased to meet you.
Thanks.
Those guys. Aren't they the ones?
You mean? The limited edition player characters?
You're kidding, they're the winners?
Are you sure?
Think so?
Well they're not commonly seen player characters.
It looks like we've been noticed.
Of course.
We're the winners of the Character Campaign.
I never thought...
...that the dot hackers characters...
...would be the present.
Dot Hackers?
They're the only party...
...to have cleared the last mystery of "The World".
There were 2 original members...
...a young male Twin Blade, Kite and...
...a young girl Heavy Blade, BlackRose.
When they solved the mystery...
...people were no longer allowed to use these characters.
To be able to use legendary heroes... it's the BEST!!
Legendary heroes?
What's wrong?
T- that... look of yours...
Can't you do something about it?
I mean, can't you look more like a legendary hero?
I don't know.
Personally, I think I'm very cute.
Even if it's just a game. It's making your brother sad.
No need to make such a fuss about it.
I've found you!
Um...
W-Would you do business with me?
To suddenly ask to do business...
M-My mistake.
Um... Troop? Lover? Crew?
Um... Um... Um...!
Calm down. I'll...
This feels so strange.
To be talking with you, Rena.
Three months after you left.
Have you been eating right?
Eh? I'm fine.
I've gotten pretty good at cooking.
What about you?
Is mom busy with work?
Yes... No problems.
I see.
Well.
Since we're logged in...
...why don't we go somewhere?
But it's kind of fun this way, too...
Eh? What?
It's nothing.
Let's go do the very foundation...
...of roleplaying - fighting monsters!
Sure.
Let's go to "Bursting Passed Over Aqua Field"!
Bursting Passed Over Aqua Field!
We're here!
And the monsters?
They appear through the magic portals.
Magic portals?
This way. This way.
H-hey Rena!
What a low level.
It's an area designed for newbies.
Oho... And those two are...
Here it comes.
It'll be fine, you don't need to be nervous!
It's mostly small fry in this area.
That's... a monster?
That's a Mad Grass, a level one monster.
Level 1?
Stand back, Rena.
I'll protect my adorable little sister.
Shugo!
Calamity Cut!
The legendary hero is crying.
Here, take this.
Whats this?
It's a health drink.
It restores your hit points.
Phew. I feel refreshed.
Shugo, you don't know how to attack do you?
Eh?
You could have won using a blade against a Mad Grass.
You didn't read the instruction manual, did you?
And I went through all that trouble.
Hey, Shugo!
You say you've graduated from games but...
...in reality you don't read the instruction manual and play however you want.
Then you get defeated...
Then you complain about the game and stop playing.
That's not graduating, it's more like quitting.
I wouldn't go that far.
That's fine with those other games.
But this game, "The World".
After all, this is where I can see you.
I'll go read the instruction manual.
I'll get the next monster.
This time for sure!
The legendary hero is resurrected!
Is this one of those "small fry" monsters?
N-no, it's an Armored Super Shogun.
A level 48 super-strong monster!
W-What's a Armored Super Shogun...
...doing in a newbie area?!
Rena!
With just a graze?
You need to heal, Shugo.
Nevermind that, run!
But.
Run!
Was I finished off?
Just when I wanted to show off to Rena.
That's why games...
What is this?
Is "The World" this kind of game?
Am I going to die?
I wonder what happens when you die in this game?
Well, it's just a game.
All I have to do is get the head mount display off.
W-What? My body won't move!
Help me! Dad! Mom! Rena!
Hey Shugo! Where are you, Shugo?
Shugo! Where are you?
As long as someone in the party is still alive...
...a dead character should remain nearby as a ghost.
Why isn't he here?
Something's wrong!
Why did such a powerful monster appear?!
This is totally different from the instruction manual!
You mustn't die.
Rena?
No. Who?
Aaah! T-Thank you.
You healed me?
Data Drain.
Eh?
You can defeat it if you use Data Drain.
Defeat it? You mean that monster?
The only one who can save this world... is you.
The heir to the dot hackers legend.
H-hey...
Please.
I'm alive, right?
My first kiss?!
This bracelet...
No!
Rena!
Balmung of the Azure Sky?!
Why?!
Rena. Rena! Rena!
Shugo!
Stand back!
You're no match for this one!
My little sister is in trouble!
You think I'll stand back?!
Shugo!
Rena!
Shugo!
Rena!
I'll protect Rena! Data Drain!
The Armored Super Shogun is now a Limp Knife!
Rena, are you all right?! Huh?
Are you all right?
Aah... Yes.
W-Who are you?!
Don't hold my sister like that!
Who was that cool guy?
Found the Limp Knife.
Vak Don!!!
The Rare Hunter of Love and Courage...
...Mireille is here!
Rare Hunter?
A collector of rare or fine items.
You're the winners...
...of the limited edition characters right?
Y-Yeah.
I thought so!
I thought that was it, so I followed you!
Thanks to you, I got to see some really neat things.
An Armored Super Shogun appearing in a newbie area.
The appearance of Balmung of the Azure Sky.
Balmung? That guy was Balmung?
Yes. He's pretty famous.
I forgot to thank him.
You really get some special...
...events with the limited edition characters!
An event? Was that what that was?
But the biggest surprise is this bracelet!
It's the first time I've seen an item that's able to...
...rewrite a monster's data.
Aaaah what a nice texture.
Oh no! I have to make dinner!
How nice! How nice! Oh no! I have to make dinner!
How nice! How nice!
I want it, I want it.
Let's go home.
Well, bye then!
Thanks.
W-Wait a sec!
You called, Lord Balmung?
Reki. Just now...
...an Armored Super Shogun appeared in this area.
It couldn't! This is an area for beginners.
It was slightly different from...
...the normal Armored Super Shogun.
Eh?
Perhaps... it has something to do with that incident.
Understood. I will investigate.
But, what worries me more are those two.
Kite and BlackRose.
Why have those two characters appeared?
Preview
I've got information on events.
Preview
You can flower view in the area "Voluptuous Cherry Maze".
Preview
Let's go carrying sweet dumplings. Right, Shugo?
Forget the dog!
Kite's Bracelet
In the running children's frolicking voices
They want to chase the light and shadows
Watching the sun shine between the green leaves,
wondering if something is there.
From inside the picking hands, the emerald green flowers
change their body to the sky, the wind, the ground.
Laying in that opulent place that opened my eyes to its beauty,
Asking questions to the sky
