Narration/text - This time we hope to clear a game formerly given up on, "Legend of the Mystical Ninja"

Toujima - Nakayama?

Arino - What're you calling Nakayama for?

Narration/text First off, AP Nakayama will advance to the previous 'give up' point

Arino - He looks like he's already suffering just by the way he's walking over here!

Toujima/text - Arino, please take a break in the green room

(laughs)

Arino - We don't have a green room!

Narration/text - Arino takes a break...

Narration/text - And then, one hour later...

Toujima/text: DVD box 6, Special Features, part 2: Revenge Against "Legend of the Mystical Ninja"!

(laughs)

Arino - Eh? Are y'already starting?

(laughs)

Arino -  Call me before you start!

(laughs)

Arino - I was playing Dragon Quest (Dragon Warrior) back there.

(laughs)

Arino - You guys know all about how to setup a shoot, don't you?

(laughs)

Narration/text - His first time challenging this game in two years. Will he fulfill his revenge?

Narration - He resumes from where he was previously forced to give up, the stage 8 boss battle.
(Text) - He resumes from the stage 8 boss fight against Yajirobei Daruma.

Arino - I give up!

(laughter)

Arino - What kind of game was this?

Arino - Eh? I don't remember this at all. Eh? Something happened didn't it? I wanna see the tapes from before! (light laughter) Something happened here didn't it?

Narration/text - He seems to have completely forgotten the game, so...

Arino - Ah, right.

Nakayama/text - I'll explain how to beat the boss.

Arino - Please do.

Narration - AP Nakayama gives advice on how to beat the boss.
(Text -  AP Nakayama gives advice)

Nakayama - First you want to jump over here, and then...eh?...how do you do it again?

(laughter)

Arino - Eh? What do you mean "how do you do it again"? I was the one asking you!

(laughter)

Arino - Do you know how to do it?

Toujima - I don't even know where to begin.

(light laughter)

Arino - What're you even here for?

(laughter)

Narration/text - With the staff also unable to remember how to play, he begins to play.

Arino/staff - Ahhh! Ahh...
(screen - Game Over)
Arino - That was fast! With this the special features are finished!

(laughs)

Arino - That's be no good, right?

Narration - He resumes from the start of stage 8.

Narration/text - It's a long journey, so Toujima makes a suggestion.

Toujima/text - There are three of us here, so let's play rock, scissors, paper, and the winners will play, and the loser will watch, how about it?

Arino - That's O.K.

Narration - Using Goemon's partner, Ebisumaru, the two who win at rock, scissors, paper will form a team and play together.
Text - The two who win at rock, scissors, paper will use Ebisumaru and form a team.

Arino - Rock, scissors, paper!

(light laughter)

Arino - So I'm playing with Toujima...

(laughter)

Arino - Which one are you using?

Narration/text - The Arino-Toujima team restarts and goes after the boss.

Narration - Goemon-Arino has help from Toujima-Ebisumaru in this fight. Or so you'd think!

Arino - Shoot, I'm Ebisu!

(laughter)

Arino - Even though I started as Goemon!

(laughter)

Narration - Toujima has chosen Goemon, the main character. He tries to make it up to Arino-Ebisumaru.

Arino - Do you want me to get on there? (light laughter) Alright then, I'll get on.

Narration -  This is the best part of 2 play mode, the piggyback ride.
(laughter. Screen - Game Over)

Arino - I'm gettin' mad y'know!

Toujima - I pressed the wrong button...

(light laughter)

Narration/text - As expected, Toujima is bad at games. Concerned about what lies ahead...

Kan - Arino?

Arino - Yes?

Kan/text - I don't feel it's possible with this pair.

Arino - (laughs) Right.

Kan - So from here, Nakayama will...
(text - Nakayama will)

Arino - ...step in, right?

Narration/text - AP Nakayama will go to the boss battle alone.

Arino - O.K., we'll be here cheering for you.

Narration - The highly difficult stage 8. The road is long and full of fierce opposition.

Arino/staff - Ah!

Narration/text - After spending and hour, at last...

Narration - ...they reach the boss.

Nakayama - I got here in pretty good condition...

Arino - Fully stocked.

Narration - Also, having remembered how to beat the boss, Nakayama has Toujima stand in as the boss and explains.
(Text - Using Toujima, Nakayama explains how to beat the boss.)

(laughter)  (text by arrow pointing to Toujima - Yajirobei Daruma.)

Nakayama/text - Go to the right side and shoot'em, then...

Arino/staff - He shakes.

Nakayama - Yeah, he shakes. Then, when you move to the bottom.

Arino - The platform carries you to the bottom.

Nakayama - Then when you're at the bottom, when he leans to the right...um..
(Text - When he leans to the right)

Nakayama - ... lean to the right please. Lean here and then stop please.
(Text - Lean here and then stop please.)

Nakayama - Then, from the bottom, shoot around this spot.

Arino - On the left side?

Arino - Then ride that momentum and...

(laughter)

Arino - This guy's overdoing it!

(laughter)

Arino - So I have to do it like that? Huh.

Nakayama - It's the fastest way.
(Text - It's the fastest way.)

Arino - The fastest way?

Narration/text - The fastest way to defeat Yajirobei Daruma. Attack from the side and when he leans to the right, attack from below. You can defeat him in just two hits this way

Narration/text - Will this plan succeed?

Narration - There's only a small opening to attack.

Arino - Oh! It worked!

(Applause/cheering)

Arino - That was super fast! He was weak!

Narration - Exactly as planned, he splendidly defeats Yajirobei Daruma in two shots.
Text -  Using the fastest stragety Yajirobei Daruma is defeated.

(Screen - Oh! Princess Yuki! Thank goodness you're safe. Now, come over here...)

Arino - Oh! Princess Yuki! Ah, Toujima, if you will.

Toujima - Oh! Princess Yuki! Thank goodness you're safe. Now, come over here...

Narration - With this Princess Yuki is saved. Or so you might think!

(Text - Eeek!)

Arino - Nakayama?

Nakayama - Eeek!

(laughter)

Arino/Text - Buhahaha! I am Commander in Chief Han-Nya!

Arino/Text - To the dungeon with you!

(Text - Waaah! Oooh!)

Arino - Uwaa...

Arino - What?

(Left vertical text - Stage 9. Center horizontal text - The Tale of Princess Yuki's Escape)

Narration - The final stage, stage 9 appears.
(Laughter)

Nakayama - Well, if you will...

(laughter)

Narration - What was waiting for him there was...

Arino - Wah! This is kind of nostalgic! He was in the game before, right?

Narration - Stage 2's boss, Lantern Beast appears. Arino begins by rapid firing gold coins to drop the lanterns.

Narration - While taking damage, he patiently attacks.

Narration - He uses a rice ball to restore his health, and succeeds in dropping all the lanterns.

Arino - Ah, no more lanterns, gotta attack the head.

Narration - Arino remembers the enemy's weak point. He aims for the head.

Arino - Got'em!

(gasps and light applause)

Arino - I did it! I beat a boss I beat before! (unclear; echo/poor audio)

Narration - However, his joy only lasts a short moment.

Arino - Nakayama?

Nakayama - Yes?

Arino/text - I'm seeing this homely woman for the first time in a long while, but I don't remember a thing.

(light laughter)

Narration - All of the bosses until now appear one after another. The battle with Stage 4's boss, the Plain Woman begins.

Arino - She's coming! She's coming! Waaah! So close!

Narration - He rapid fires gold coins here too and steadily does damage.

Arino - Where's she go? Ah, that's wrong. There she is, she came back together.

(light laughter)

Narration - Having taken damage from the body attack, Arino has little life left. The result?

(groans)

Narration - He starts again from the Lantern Beast...

Narration - ...and moves on to the second battle with the Plain Woman.

Narration – While taking care not to be hit by her body attacks, he calmly attacks.

Narration  - The boss is close to being defeated.

Arino – It’s big! It’s big! It’s big!

(gasps from the staff)

Arino – It’s over! Thank goodness!

Narration – This victory brings him only brief relief before he heads into the next battle.

(staff gasps)

Arino – I don’t remember this at all, but that guy is super scary!

Nakayama – This is the last boss.

Arino – What? I don’t remember this at all!

Narration/text – The last boss, Commander in Chief Han-Nya appears!

Narration/Text – The moment to drive away regret spanning two years has come.

Narration – Riding on a karashishi lion portrait, the boss attacks viciously with arrows.

(staff gasps)

Arino – Watch out, watch out.

Narration – Arino-Goemon counterattacks.

(staff gasps)

Arino - Watch out. Oh, I hit’em!

Narration – Reflecting the boss’s arrows back at him to deal damage is no ordinary attack method.

(staff gasps)

Arino – O.K.

Narration- It’s a brutal battle, and Arino only has a little life remaining. The result…

(staff groans)

Narration/text – A good fight that ends in empty failure.

Narration – Further, his restart point is from the Lantern Beast.

Arino – Even though this is just a special feature it’s so tough!

(Laughter)

Narration – With no time for even a short break, the non-stop boss battles begins again.

(Staff gasps/cheers)

Narration – With only a bit of life left, he once again challenges Commander in Chief Han-Nya.

Narration – After scoring a hit, he runs for his safe zone. He has…not got gotten him into a pattern.

(Arino/staff gasps and groans)

Arino – Ah! It’s over! (groans)

Narration/text – The double header is a severe battle…

Narration - …and there's a message from the staff.

Kan – Arino?

Arino – Yes?

Kan – That time has come.

Arino – Right.

Kan – This really is your last Goemon.
Arino – (laughs/groans) But I really think I could do it if I just had a bit more time. O.K., let me clear it with my ‘real last Goemon’

Kan – Please do.

Narration – Will this challenge end in tears yet again?
Text – Will this revenge match two years in the making also end in tears?

Narration – But Arino shows his spirit when his back is to the wall…

(staff gasps)

Arino – Ah, two went in.

Narration - …and makes it to the last boss with one rice ball remaining.

Narration/text – He’s putting everything on this last Goemon.

Narration - He reflects the arrows with his iron pipe. He's gotten the hang of how to do this, and he's steadily reducing the boss's health.

(Staff gasps/groans)

Arino - Ah...

(Staff gasps/exclaims)

Arino - He's still going?

Narration - Commander in Chief Han-Nya only has a bit of life remaining.

Arino - Argh, I missed.

(staff gasps)
(Arino and staff gasp)

Arino - Oh, I got'em! I got'em! Wait, what's happening? Ah! Watch out! Ah!

Arino - I didn't hear about this!

Nakayama - (laughing) This is the true last boss.

(laughter)

Arino - No way...

Narration -  Commander in Chief Han-Nya curls up his body and attacks, an unthinkable power up!
(Text - An unthinkable power up!)

Narration/text - The true final battle begins.

(gasps)

Arino - Oh, he got me.

Narration - Touching the spinning Commander in Chief Han-Nya instantly costs four life points.

(gasps)

Arino - Where's he coming?

Narration - His next move is a fierce bounding attack.

Arino - Ah, I'm not hitting him at all!

(loud gasps)

Arino - Wasn't hitting him at all there. Hmmmmm...

Narration/text -  His last Goemon finishes in an unfortunate end. However...

Kan - Arino, let's try one more time.

Arino - Whaaat?! (laughs) I said before that I give up!

(laughter)

Arino - Do you really want to see the ending that bad?

Kan - We've already come this far, so I want to see it.

Arino - Alright, I'll give it a go then (mutters).

Narration/text - Of course, Arino wants to see the ending as well. The challenge continues.

Narration - Somehow defeating the karashishi lion portrait, Arino begins a one-on-one battle with Commander in Chief Han-Nya.

(gasps)

Arino - Ah, watch out!

(gasps)

Arino - Watch out!

Narration - Waiting for his chance, Arino slowly does damage, but...

Arino - Ah, he hit me! He hit me again!

Narration - He can't keep up with the boss's movements at all. The difference in their strength is obvious.

Arino - (laughing) I'm missing! All my shots are missing! Ah!

(Arino/staff groan)

Arino - That's no good...

Abe - It's impossible for ya!

Arino - (laughs) Hearing that really ticks me off! (laughs) I feel like I can do it, but when he starts bouncing around like that...

Nakayama - Well, if you calm down and...

(Arino laughs)

Nakayam - Um...

(staff laughs)

Arino - It's strange, I'm almost 37 and I can't calm down...

(Arino/staff laugh)

Arino - I'm still up to all sorts of bad stuff!

 Narration/text - Dodging the body attack is highly difficult, so here...

Arino - O.K., lets give it one more try!

Narration/text - Arino's fighting spirit is burning again! He retries.

Arino - Alright!

(mild cheering)

Arino - Ah, he hit me. He's hitting me!

Narration - Even if his spirits are renewed, his battle strength is unchanged, so here...

Arino - Gotta keep my distance, gotta keep my distance, gotta keep my distance...

Abe - Crawl! Crawl!

(laughter)

Narration - Cameraman Abe's suggestion comes at an unthinkable moment.

Arino - He's gonna crush me here, isn't he?

(laughter)

Narration - Cameraman Abe offers some advice.

Abe - Since it's a corner, if you go to the edge and lie down, he can't hit you, can he? Because he's round.

Arino - Lot of space in that corner, isn't there?

(Text - (Center top) Cameraman Abe's POV. (Center middle) If you go to the corner of the screen and lie down, you can avoid body hits from the spherical boss.

Narration - The enemy is spherical, so the extra space in the corner gives you a safe spot.

Arino - Should we see if it works?

Narration - Will this strategy work? He goes into standby as far as he can in the corner.

(staff gasps)

Arino - Watch out!
(staff - You can do it!)

Narration - Unbelievably he's discovered a safe zone! All's that's left is to calm down and attack the boss. However, if Arino is attacked one more time, then it's the end. How will the battle end?

(Staff - You can do it!)
(Staff - One more hit!)

Arino - He's gotta be super mad!

(Arino/staff cheer)

Arino - I did it! I did it! But...that's such a dirty way to win! (laughs)

Narration - An unbelievable idea leads to revenge over "Legend of the Mystical Ninja"!

(Upper left text - An ending screen two years in the making)
(Speech box - D...don't come over here!)

Narration - Here is the longed-for ending screen.
(Speech box - A..are you really gonna come here? Ah! Forgive me!)

Arino - (reading) Ah! Forgive me! He's some old man.

(Screen - The End)

Arino - Oh, it's over.

Arino - How do I put it? If I kid was playing I don't think they could clear it. It's the kind of victory that can only brought by the wisdom of adults who are over 40!

(laughter)

Prince's text - What a nice idea, Mr. Abe.
