Part one of the final episode is here. Halfway there.

The first half of the video is straight talking the entire time. I plan to have the final video be...well, the final fight and ending. We got an all star cast though this time, almost everyone makes an appearance. Some are just not here though. Sorry Cockatrice and Incubus fans.

A few highlights, mostly being the popular characters we know and love:

(Translating Witch is...a ride.)

The video itself: (I've done most of the Schezo ones. You can check in my blog.)

Lot of timestamps. Lot of work for me.

Also, special shout out to this screenshot. Flabbergasted me the first time seeing Witch pull out the heart from nowhere. Also got it on a frame where Schezo looks done with life.

With the sheer length of it (and how much my phone lags), I'm gonna format this a bit differently.

With that, Enjoy the super long translation text in the Read More.

Intro: (0:00)

Schezo:

What is that!?

Satan:

You're asking me?

Schezo:

Didn't you put that tower up there?

Satan:

Y-yes, that's right.

Schezo:

...Then shouldn't you know what's in the tower?

Satan:

Well, I've been busy with things.

I can't check every attraction.

Schezo:

What, you don't even know...Are you still the owner of this place?

Satan:

No, that's not...

Schezo:

I don't need you to tell me you don't know where the magic item is, 'cause I'm leaving.

Info Stuff and Bulletins: (0:45)

[Menus, my beloved. Here's how they go in this game.

Listen

Bulletin <-

Back

The next screen goes:

Peddler Fufufu

Don't Throw Away the Magic Item!

Where is the Meteor Grimoire!

Mystery Appearance! <-

Back]

Bulletin:

Mystery Appearance! The name of it is called "The Ultimate Tower".

This is the final attraction! The "Incredible Magic Item" is in this tower!

It's connected to the other attractions by a mysterious force.

It's said you can enjoy all the attractions at once here! Those who are confident should give it a try. (If there's a line break, my apologies.)

The player then leaves the entire place.

-----

Succubus Encounter and Gameplay Dumping: (1:25)

Succubus:

Welcome. I'm surprised you came all this way.

Schezo:

You're...the perverted woman!

Succubus:

...I don't want to be held by an Ankh! (Basically: Egyptian Cross.)

Schezo:

What do you mean! ...Wait, what're you doing here anyways?

Succubus:

Of course. I've been waiting for you. ♡

Schezo:

I-I-I Don't know what you're talking about...

Succubus:

...I'm joking.

Schezo:

...

Succubus:

Actually, I'm not here to lead you on...I'm here to guide guests.

Schezo:

Guests? Is this place an attraction?

Succubus:

What? You didn't hear? Well, I'll make it easy for you. ♡

This is a special attraction where people who've appeared as bosses wait.

The guys there are at least level 50, and at best well over 100.

If you're lucky, you should be able to get halfway through, but if you're not sure, best not to go.

Schezo:

Do you think I'll be afraid of that sort of thing?

Succubus:

Well, you can go in, I won't stop you. Do what you like. ♡

Schezo:

Yeah, I'll do it.

---

2nd Succubus Encounter: (2:48)

Succubus:

Aren't you a curious person. I can't believe you came back.

Schezo:

Oh, sorry then!

Succubus:

Perhaps...you're here to see me then?

Schezo:

No! I'm not!

Succubus:

You don't have to get so worked up about it. ♡

Aren't you a shy one. ♡

-----

Skeleton-T Encounter: (3:15)

Skeleton-T:

Oh noooooo~!

Schezo:

What's wrong?

Skeleton-T:

I spilled my tea during the tremor earlier.

Schezo:

...

Skeleton-T:

Surprised, I went outside. Then, a huge tower appeared!

Schezo:

That's right.

Skeleton-T:

I'm in real trouble.

Schezo:

(...What in the world is troubling you?)

-----

2nd Skeleton-T Encounter: (3:50)

Skeleton-T:

Ochaaaaa-a! (He said the phrase guys, pack it up)

Schezo:

It's you again...

Skeleton-T:

Take a break. Go to the store and get a cup of tea.

Schezo:

I bet both your miso and your brain is green.

Skeleton-T:

Do I have any miso, is what you're asking?

Schezo:

What? You don't actually have any miso?

Skeleton-T:

Hmm...

Schezo:

Come on...don't take it so seriously...

-----

Draco Encounter: (4:25)

Draco:

Yo! (Or Gao, either or. Your choice.)

Schezo:

Oh, it's you.

Draco:

You. You're still looking all moody and gloomy.

You're ruining your good looks. If you were more breezy, wouldn't you be more popular with women?

Schezo:

Leave me alone! I have zero interest about women!

Draco:

Eh..."Zero interest about women"? ...Then do you like men?

Schezo:

How could that be? That's completely different!

Draco:

So then why don't you try to be more girl-consious? (Or conscious about girls.)

Though the ones who only think about girls like an incubus are the worst.

Schezo:

Why am I being compared to an incubus?

---

2nd Draco Encounter: (5:15)

Draco:

Yo! (Or Gao again. Choose your adventure style at this rate.)

Schezo:

Oh.

Draco:

You're not going back in there. (The Dungeon she means.)

Schezo:

Oh.

Draco:

Did you come to see me by any chance?

Schezo:

Oh. ...What!? That's not right!

Thats not true at all! What're you saying!?

Draco:

Ugh, don't be so forceful. I'm a bit hurt myself.

A popular guy like him doesn't know what going on with women...oh man, I wonder why...

Schezo:

...I'm popular?

... (Guy is making the cheesiest smile here.)

-----

Harpy Encounter: (6:20)

Harpy:

Hari-Hora~* (The * is in place for the music note. Also, her lines are stupid weird to translate, so bear with me here.)

Schezo:

It's so loud!

Harpy:

Horoharu-Helifla~* (I'm mostly using her Champions and PPT2 spell names because some of the words become jargin.)

Schezo:

Hey, shut up!

Harpy:

I'll let everyone know~*

Schezo:

Oh, come on...are you serious? Won't someone die?

---

2nd Harpy Encounter: (6:20)

Schezo:

Whoa. Surpsingly, no one's here.

Harpy:

Horoharu-Helifla~*

Schezo:

So it was a surprise attack! It worked...

Harpy:

I forgot something~*

Schezo:

That destructive power can't be underestimated. I have to be careful of her voice attacks.

----

Suketoudara Encounter: (6:52)

Suketoudara:

Heeeey!

Hey! If you're a real man, why don't you learn my sexy dance moves!

Schezo:

...That's ridiculous.

Suke:

What!? You made fun of my dancing!

Schezo;

I'm busy. Do it elsewhere.

Suketoudara:

Wait! We're still talking...

Schezo:

You're on your own.

---

2nd Suketoudara Encounter: (7:25)

Suketoudara:

Hey.

Schezo:

Again...I don't have time for your stupid dances.

Suketoudara:

Where are you, Serilly? (He says Serilly-Chan here, for the record.)

Schezo:

What? That's none of your business.

Suketoudara:

Fiiiish! I knew it!

I won't lose to you! I'll never lose to you!

Schezo:

What was that? Something about it pisses me off!

What sort of grudge does he have against me!?

-----

Sasori Man Encounter: (8:05)

Sasori:

Are you going to make a profit?

Schezo:

Nope, not at all.

Sasori:

You sure? I've heard rumors about you.

Schezo:

Rumors?

Sasori:

They say that you went into the deepest parts of the Puyo Puyo Dungeon.

Schezo:

Well, that's correct.

Sasori:

You're a lot more capable then you seem, I'll admit.

Schezo:

...Do I look that weak to you?

-----

2nd Sasori Man Encounter: (8:35)

Sasori:

Hey hey.

Schezo:

Oh, you again.

Sasori:

About the rumors of the tower, have you heard anything?

Schezo:

What?

Sasori:

Apparently, you can find some amazing items in that tower.

Schezo:

Of course there is. But it's mine.

Sasori:

As expected, I'm counting on you.

Schezo:

Hey...what did you even expect?

-----

Black Kikimora Encounter: (9:10)

Black Kikimora: (will be called Biki)

...

Schezo:

Hey.

Biki:

...

Schezo:

...I'm going in.

Biki:

...I'm going in.

Schezo:

... ... ...

She's really not pretty.

Biki:

Mind your own business!

Schezo:

Woah! I'm out of here!

Biki:

Eh!?

Schezo:

I knew she was...well, you know.

---

2nd Black Kikimora Encounter: (9:43)

Biki:

... ... ...

Schezo:

... ... ...

Biki:

...

Schezo:

... ... ...

Biki:

...Say something!

Schezo:

Guess I win this time.

Biki:

!! Damn it!!!

Schezo:

Hey...are you that bitter about it?

-----

Panotty Encounter: (10:13)

Flute:

(...you can see it, actually. Only translated thing in the game.)

Schezo:

Ah!

Panotty:

Eh?

Schezo:

You're too loud! Go somewhere else.

Panotty:

Why!

Schezo:

You're an unreasonable kid!

Panotty:

Hmpf! Akanbe! (Japanese jesture kids do to be mean. The pulling your eye down a bit and sticking out a tongue.)

Schezo:

He's such an annoying brat!

-----

2nd Panotty Encounter: (10:40)

Panotty:

Woah!

Schezo:

Woah!?

Panotty:

Bye-Bye!

Schezo:

Wait a second!

Panotty:

I did it~!

Schezo:

You're so annoying!

-----

Serilly Encounter: (10;55)

Serilly:

Ah! Mr. Schezo!

Schezo:

Hey, there you are.

Serilly:

Did you come to see me? If so, I'm really glad. ♡

Schezo:

That's not what I was going to say...

Serilly:

Oh...I see...

Schezo:

No, you see, the truth is that I came here to talk to you.

Serilly:

Oh, really? Yes, what is it!?

Schezo:

Aren't you afraid of me?

Serily:

What? Why? You don't scare me at all anymore.

Schezo:

Okay...

Serilly:

...?

Schezo:

Have...have I changed since I've lost my powers...?

Serilly:

...Mr. Schezo?

Schezo:

If I don't get my power back, will I be able to be who I once was...?

Serilly:

Mr. Schezo...um...for me...

You told me to "Always look forward in life," and that made me happy!

But...I don't know, but I think Mr. Schezo is thinking backwards right now...

Schezo:

!?

Serilly:

That's...not like you, Mr. Schezo.

Schezo:

!!

Serilly:

Oh, um...I'm sorry. I'm sorry if I sounded rude.

Schezo:

No, no. You're right.

I guess I was looking backwards, but you've opened my eyes. Thanks.

Serilly:

No, that's not...

Schezo:

Let's go! I am Master Schezo Wegey, The Dark Mage!

Serilly:

Yes! Good luck!

-----

2nd Serilly Encounter: (12:38)

Serilly:

Oh! Mr. Schezo!

Schezo:

Hey, thanks for helping me earlier.

Serilly:

No, I'm the one who...

Schezo:

What? Don't make that face.

Serilly:

...I'm sorry, but there's something about you, Mr.Schezo.

I feel like you're going far away...

Schezo:

Hah! What're you talking about, I'm right here.

And here I am, talking to you.

Serilly:

Yeah! That's right.

Schezo:

Yeah, so no more crying.

Serilly:

Yes!

Schezo:

...I'm the one telling a girl to not cry...

I can't believe it...something has changed after all.

---

3rd Serilly "Encounter": (13:40)

Schezo:

Nobody's here...

...not that I was expecting anyone to be here.

-----

The rest here are for the Ultimate Tower. Here we go.

Satan 1: (14:00)

Satan:

Are you going, Schezo?

Schezo:

Yes.

Satan:

Well...be careful. The road ahead isn't going to be easy.

Schezo:

I guess so, but with me...

Satan:

You'll lose your footing if you're too confident.

Schezo:

No need to worry.

(Text appears saying "Enter the Ultimate Tower?" For convenience sake, this'll only be one time.)

-----

Arle 1: (14:28)

Arle:

Oh! Schezo!

Schezo:

What!? You're after the treasure too?

Arle:

Schezo...what treasure?

Schezo:

I'm telling you now, it was mine originally.

It's not going to help you if you find it, sk don't waste your time searching for it.

Arle:

You know what "That" is...Schezo, what do you know?

Schezo:

That it's the Space-Time...no, it's nothing.

Arle:

...It's not very manly to stop halfway through what you were going to say.

Schezo:

Leave me alone! I hate words like "Manly" and "Hot-headed"!

...Oops, I shouldn't waste time here. Farewell Arle.

Well. Let's get into it.

-----

Witch 1: (15:25)

Witch:

Ah!

Schezo:

What the!?

Witch:

I knew it, it's still so cool... ♡

Schezo:

Hey, what're you talking about...

Witch:

The treasure and your clothes belong to me!

Schezo:

What're you saying? What?

Witch:

I'll work hard and do my best!

Schezo:

You don't have to work hard at all!

-----

Arle 2: (15:50)

Schezo:

...and the one over there is-

Arle:

Oh! Schezo!

Schezo:

Arle, why do you want the treasure?

Arle:

I'm not here for the treasure. I'm just playing here.

Schezo:

Then you should back off from here.

Arle:

Eh, why?

Schezo:

Why not? (AMAZING Reasoning.)

Arle:

Well, I guess I'll have to go searching too~

Schezo:

You're the one who...suit yourself then. I don't care what happens to you.

Arle:

Oh for heavens sake! If you're going to say something, speak up!

There's been something weird about you these days!

Schezo:

...Have you ever thought about yourself?

Arle:

Eh? What do you mean?

Schezo:

Im here to revive my lost self.

And I don't need to be nagged by you, who's playing around in the middle of the day!

Arle:

You don't have to say it like that...Schezo, you jerk!

Schezo:

I may have gone overboard...forgive me, Arle.

How could a Dark Mage like me get so worked up over a few words...

Arle...you're a strange girl. I think you're...well, it doesn't matter.

-----

Rulue and Minotauros: (17:20)

Schezo:

What the!? That lady over there...

Rulue:

Hey! What're you doing! Don't get lazy, or I'll leave you here!

Minotauros:

I'm sorry for bothering you.

Schezo:

...What makes that cow so happy to follow her around?

I'll never understand how cows think...

-----

Witch 2: (17:49)

Witch:

Oh, Schezo! (I'm a tad unsure here. Thing says, "Mr. Schezo" like Serilly, but is it Schezo-san/senpai because of what's going on? For now, just Schezo.)

Schezo:

...Here we go again.

Witch:

Are you here for the treasure too?

Schezo:

Yeah, that's right. It's mine.

Witch:

That's not true. Everything is beautiful.

And anything that's beautiful belongs to me. That magic item, your clothes, they're all mine.

Schezo:

Why are you so concerned over my clothes...

Witch:

...Because I want them.

Schezo:

...I don't have any good women around me.

Witch:

Well...you seem a bit embarrassed.

Sooner or later, you'll want to take those clothes off yourself. Oh-hohoho!

Schezo:

...Do you think she's even weirder than me? (Solid debate tbh)

-----

Satan 2: (18:48)

Satan:

Are you prepared, Schezo?

Schezo:

Yes.

Satan:

Okay. Well, be careful.

Schezo:

What? Did you hit your head?

Satan:

It's going to be a tough time for you now.

Schezo:

What do you mean? You've gone mad.

Satan:

Your current magic...something has happened to you, hasn't it?

I sense a great power in that tower. If you were in your best condition, I wouldn't worry...

Schezo:

What're you talking about! I'm invincible, you don't have to worry about!

Satan:

...in that case, I'll say no more.

Schezo:

That Satan...to notice that my powers were weakened...

And that's all the talk before the big fight and ending. It's been a pleasure having you around. Stick around for the grand finale and then extras.

Ohhh I think it be interesting to see some more sea monks (bias of course) but maybe some more obscure creatures like a panotti, slattenpatten or monopod. I’d love to see Cellanus reaction to them.

Thank you for the suggestions! I'm not sure that Cellanus will be going anywhere near a large body of water anytime soon, but who knows :)

Puyo Puyo PC-98 Manual Translation

Once upon a time, in the age when the power of magic was bestowed upon the world, a powerful sorcerer created a great spell named "Owanimo." One of the strongest spells of all, it could banish monsters to a space between dimensions, but he sealed it away, recording it only in his "Book of Magic." 

Not because it was forbidden knowledge or incredibly hard to use, but because to him, it seemed useless. And thus, the spell entered a dormant state, awaiting a day when a new sorcerer would come forth...

Years came and went until finally, the seal came undone with the appearance of a great sorceress: Arle Nadja. One day, this auburn-haired girl with golden eyes came across the Book of Magic.

"Owanimo...?" Arle studied the chapter on forbidden spells for what seemed like hours. "When four monsters of the same color are in your sights, chant this spell loudly. The Goddess of Time shall listen, and whisk the monsters away to a space between dimensions." 

Arle continued to read, learning the Owanimo spell, but then closed it with a heavy sigh once she finished.

Why set it aside like that? Well, Arle had never seen "four monsters of the same color" as the spellbook described. 

"I spent so much time reading, and it's not even a spell I can use for anything..." 

But just as fate brought the Book of Magic into Arle's hands by chance, so it brought from the world of darkness the very monsters she had read about.

And thus, a great battle awaits. With her great magic abilities, and the newfound power of "Owanimo," Arle Nadja sets out to protect the world.

CHARACTERS A・C・P

Arle Nadja The protagonist of the game and the (aspiring) sorceress who released the spell "Owanimo". Nobody knows how she ended up this way, but despite looking like she wouldn't hurt a fly, she's actually a merciless girl that slaughters innocent Puyo. She currently attends a magic school, but she's already too scary for anything to stand in her way. That's my opinion, anyway.

Carbuncle During the game, when you find your eyes moving towards the center of the screen... Awww~! He's sleeping!!! This is Carbuncle. When he's lying still, he almost looks like a loaf of bread, but as he sings and dances he shows off a wide range of movement and facial expressions. A truly profound deuteragonist.

Puyo Puyo Despite their fate as short-lived, jelly-like monsters who are stacked and popped, they have managed to secure a leading role this time around, and even get to dance on the title screen. They're sure to enjoy this special opportunity to perform on a grand stage in five different colors. Looking at them with an empty stomach will reveal their appetizing nature and make you hungry. Hehe.

Arle, the protagonist, is brimming with curiosity.

Skeleton T While he appears as the epitome of a tea-loving Japanese man, he is a fine monster as well. He will be the first opponent you face during your trials. But you'll find that in a rather endearing way, he's a miserable fool who doesn't even know how to rotate his Puyo. Boohoo. Sipping bitter green tea during battle will instantly make you one of his tea-drinking buddies.

Nasu Grave An eggplant. Specifically, a Kamo eggplant. On top of that, he makes for a rather strange presence. Just what the heck is this thing? Despite appearances, his defensive power is high, so novices might find themselves struggling a bit. You'll have no choice but to keep at it and apply a steady technique. But in the end, your opponent is still just an eggplant. A regular talking eggplant. …Heh.

Mummy Even though it's called Mummy, it isn't a mommy. It's a mummy. What? You already knew that? Oh, deary me, I'll wrap it up then. (←One-man comedy routine.) Mummy is an opponent that makes you want to bully it because the crying face it makes when it's about to lose is just too cute. Sorry, Mummy.

The Goddess of Time whisking the monsters away.

BATTLE STAGES 1-6

Draco Centauros As you might expect from someone who shouts "Rawr", this half-dragon being takes pride in those sharp horns. Appearing as the first obstacle of your quest, this opponent has top tier judgment and piece precision but takes forever to think things through. Because of that, she's a pitiful lass who is only ranked as a third-rate monster girl... You heard me right! Draco is a girl. I'm sure someone around you thought she was a boy...

Suketoudara A pollock who has an aura of coming from some far-off sea. However, he seems to have the character of an Edokko​. He's an athletic-type who tends to err on the side of caution. However, he's also arrogant. When he wins, he makes a face that screams "You're no match for me!", which is truly aggravating. Many say they especially don't want to lose to him.

(TL Note: Literally meaning “Child of Edo”, Edokko is refers to a person born and raised in Edo (renamed Tokyo in 1868). It implies personality traits such as being assertive, straightforward, cheerful, perhaps a bit mercantile.)

Sukiyapodes Let's just get this out of the way; he has a giant foot. It measures about 16 mon. Even though he has a complex about it, he directs that frustration into bettering himself. Well, we're not sure if that last part's true, but he always has a cheerful expression on his face as he slowly and steadily builds precise chains. He's a bit of an unpleasant guy.

(TL Note: mon is a unit of length for measuring the size of one's foot. 1 mon is equivalent to 2.4 cm. His foot is 38.4 cm, or 15.12 in.)

Harpy Now then, it is time for Miss Harpy's song. She loves singing more than she loves having three meals a day. She could sing for ages if no one stopped her. If there was something like a "Puyo Puyo World Karaoke Tournament", she'd win for sure. But unfortunately, this is only Puyo Puyo. 

Sasori Man “How d'ya do, partner? I’m a famous Naniwa salesman known 'round these parts as Sasori Man. Put 'er there! Huh? Yer askin' for my secret to success? I ain't spillin' the beans no matter how much ya beg. That's somethin' to look forward to when we do battle. Till then, happy trails.”

Panotty A flute-playing boy. But honestly, he's nothing more than a noisy, mischievous brat. He disrupts his opponent's chains by dropping large amounts of Nuisance Puyo on them. Everyone has fallen victim to his antics at least once. What a truly ruthless Puyo technique. For when his last flute sounds, the dead shall be raised. Just kidding.

BATTLE STAGES 7-12

Zombie A zombie. All of his lines are stuff like "Ugheeee." This zombie is quite the formidable trickster. Sometimes he will be swiftly defeated, and other times he will take you by surprise and suddenly pull off a huge chain. If you don't take him seriously, you'll find yourself in a tough spot. Battle with caution.

Witch In the forest stands a grand mansion. Living there was a very ordinary family whose lineage can be traced back hundreds of years. The family's only daughter was born and was raised in a very ordinary fashion. But there was one thing that was not so ordinary...That young lady was a haughty witch. Ohohoho! Ohohohoho... *fadeout*

Zou Daimaou Pawoo! The mammoth mogul has arrived! A young aristocrat who comes from an ancient and distinguished line of royal Indian elephants. An irritating fellow who likes bad puns, gives his words an elephantine quality, and casually rhymes. He also enjoys Puyo Puyo. Plus, he's strong. An aphant-garde aristocrat whose ground-shaking chains are as sharp as his tusks.

Schezo A silver-haired man with deep blue eyes. Schezo, the embodiment of picturesque beauty. However, he's been deemed a pervert thanks to Arle, and strives to restore his honor by challenging her. 

B-E-A-U-T-Y! Perfection won't pass you by!  P-R-I-N-C-E! Of the Puyo Puyo World, it's meant to be! Go now! Go forth! Show us what you're really worth! 

...Well, this has turned into something rather silly..

Minotauros Risking life and limb for his duties, a bull who lives by the code of chivalry, leaving a flurry of cherry blossoms in his wake. That is Minotauros. Ever since Rulue rescued him long ago, he has served as her devoted attendant like a faithful dog. Seeing him like this brings some to tears. For Rulue, he'd go through hell and high water. He's giving it his all today, and his one-eyed look is as cool as ever.

Rulue A woman truly worthy of the title of "Fighting Queen". The queen of the Puyo Puyo world. There's nothing that she can't obtain... Oh wait, there is something — Satan's love. Possessing a very jealous nature, Rulue is always lying in wait, ready to obliterate anyone who gets close to Satan. It's rumored that her true strength is even greater than Satan's.

BATTLE STAGE 13

Satan He is the king that rules over heaven and earth. He soars the skies with wings that slice through wind. His two horns point towards the heavens. His sharp eyes are like glistening gems. Cloaked in the veil of night, his devilish hand beckons you in. He is darkness’s cherished protege. It seems playing Puyo Puyo is a guilty pleasure of his. His true strength is unknown. It's said he's won the Puyo Puyo World Championship a countless number of times. In any case, he's obviously a bigshot. Can you truly defeat Satan, who boasts of elite skills in speed and chaining?

Chapter 3: Harpy’s Best Friend by huskynator

Description: Harpy talks with Panotty in the canteen.

[Art by ChaoPlushie​]

F3 - Economics

“Nohoho!” The frog teacher laughed at the economics joke he made. “Before ya continue ta scribble in yer books, do ya kidd’ns have any questions?”

Mr. Nohoho (Business Studies and Economics) Laid-Back and Lenient

And a single hand was raised. “Yes, Miss Harpy?”

“How do you spell that word on the whiteboard, Mr. Nohoho?”

Harpy Anti-Successful Diva Wannabe

“WHAT!?!” “Ugh, you’ve got to be a troll.” “Why couldn’t I have stayed dead?”

Harpy’s classmates, Ess, Raina, and Mummy viscerally exclaimed in that order.

Nohoho quietly shushed them. “Which ‘ne?” He nicely asked.

“Institutions.” Harpy went on, oblivious to the fact her fellow students were annoyed at her. And what annoyed them equally was that Nohoho actually complied.

“You kidd’ns c’n start now if ya like. Now kindly follow mah lead, Miss Harpy. Ah’m not gonna repeat myself.”

“I”

“I”

“N”

After that spelling lesson gave a hearty: “Thank YYYoooOOUuuUu!!~~” And everyone regretted sharing a class with her again. Even Nohoho asked her to kindly stop assaulting his earholes.

And as usual, Harpy failed to pick up any negative implications.

After that, the class was quiet as a class should when everyone is working.

The school bell rang and Nohoho instructed his students to go to the canteen for lunch. Harpy couldn’t wait to catch up with her friend Panotty. She checks on her phone if he had lunch at the same time as her today, if not she’ll meet him at recess.

And he is. Harpy drifted in circle mid-air she’s so glad.

F3 - East Hallway

“How did that ditz make it through last year?” “She better drop out this week.”

Ess and Raina said to each other, not caring if Harpy was in earshot.

Which she wasn’t. She was way ahead of them hovering down the stairs.

F1 - Canteen

Harpy and Panotty met up and at the table for themselves. Away from the other Freshmen and Sophomores.

“And that’s when me and Jaan pranked that Vampire guy with a spoon. Hahahaha.”

Panotty Mischievous Flute Playing Elf

“Heeheehee. Spoon.” Harpy giggled as she munched on some lettuce. “You made another friend. Have you made more?”

“Nah, not really. A lot of them are lame. Most of them just ask to be pranked.”

“Why?”

“I don’t mean it literally, Harp.”

“Oh.”

“There is this living pumpkin in my class. We’re a lot alike. And I can see me being friends with her. But for now, I’m happy with you and Jaan.”

“Jaan’s nice.” Harpy smiled waving at her at the table she’s sitting at. Jaan may not’ve noticed it.

“Who’re your friends, Harp?”

“Everyone is my friend. Everyone loves me.”

Panotty tilted his head. “You sure?” He tried not to say what’s on his mind. Unlike Harpy, Panotty is perfectly aware of their reputations. Both are cataclysmic musicians so to speak. They both play horribly together because they have fun with each other and barely anyone likes them as a result.

“Indeed.” Harpy said chipper-like. “I’m so good they don’t wanna hear me for too long so they can imagine what the rest of my songs sound like. Y’know, just like at the park.”

“Harpy?”

“Yeah, Panotty?” The always bubbly winged-human replied.

Panotty wrinkled his lips. ‘How do I put this nicely as possible for Harp?’ “When I was visiting the mini-theater to show off my flute playing skills I saw a sign next to the window.”

For reference, the sign reads: Stay out, Harpy!! This is Soundproof not Harpy proof!!!!

Harpy puffed her cheeks “Oh, that. It’s not my fault these windows keep exploding while I sing. Everyone keeps blaming for something that happens naturally!”

“…” The forest elf had trouble fishing for the next best thing to say to her. And what came to him may not have been the best course of action. “So… Are you gonna sign up for that Singing Contest?”

Within a second. The angel slams her hands on the table, flapped her butt out of her seat and shouted: “THERE’S A SINGING CONTEST?! HOW LOVELYYYYy yYY YY Yy Y YYY YY Y Yyy y y Y y YY Y Y yY YY y y yYy Y Yy yy y ! !! ! !”

“Harpy found out!” “RUN!” “Prepare your earplugs!” “AAAAAAH!”

Some students left running out of the canteen with or without her lunch. The remaining students with mortal and non-supernatural ears stayed and take Harpy’s giddy singing the best they can, most giving Panotty and Harpy a dirty look.

The supernaturals such as the undead and the mystical (like Panotty and Jaan), didn’t mind. They’re more tolerant of Harpy’s shrill singing oh-god-please-kill-me-now voice.

That is a minority of people in Primp High School. Most people of whatever species here are quite average mortal people.

“Miss?” A voice from behind the counter. Harpy looked behind her.

Z.E.D. (One-Bot Canteen Operator) Caretaker Provides Everyone’s Nutritions

“Yeah?”

“Please, do not cause anymore vocal calamity in the canteen please.”

“What?” Harpy tilted her head.

Panotty stepped up to translate for his featherbrained friend. “He nicely asks if you stop singing.”

“Affirmative.” The canteen bot nodded. That nod was needed for Harpy to understand that word.

“Okay, Mr. Gives-me-food, because you asked nicely.”

“Thank you, the students and my auditory sensors will rest easy now.” And that conversation is over. And everyone went to what they were doing before.

“I keep forgetting to ask.” Panotty spoke to Harpy while pointing to Zed. “Is that a real, self-thinking robot?”

“No, silly ‘Notty.” Harpy and smiling as she ruffled her friend’s head. “That’s just a creature made of steel.” She explained.

“Aha…” ‘I’ll ask Zed.’

Author’s Notes:

HUSK: And that concludes the three debut chapters. We hope you stick around for more.

WARE: As Husynator said, I hope we got your interest because there is a lot more to come.

Thanks to my Sonic comic binging and how much I ended up enjoying both Archie and Sonic The Comic, I have been musing about what I'd like a Puyo comic to be like. 

Most who know me are aware that I prefer Puyo to be more of an ensemble thing like the Anniversary games, which give the cast at large a chance at some spotlight. This got me thinking of a format I'd totally adore, that being a Sonic The Comic styled format.

StC would, on average, have 4 stories per issue, though to compensate they would all have a rather low page count. Still, even then it still pulled off longer arcs just fine and I think this would be a nice way to grant the entire cast some needed spotlight.

Let's say we got an issue of Puyo The Comic so to speak:

Story A centers around the A Trio doing their thing, standard stuff.

Story B, since he has no part in Story A, stars Sig who ends up on Pwurp and has an adventure with the Accursed Knights.

Not my fault they are the best Quest characters.

This could even be a recurring theme for Sig story arcs, much like Tails' adventures as the Zonerunner in StC.

Story C is a Schezo centric tale, ala' Tower of the Magician. Schezo-relevant characters like Witch, Lagnus or Succubus can play parts as needed.

And Story D would be a little one-off. Maybe something staring Harpy and Panotty, to capture the adorable dynamic they had in some Compile material or perhaps a Risukuma story similar to his 20th campaign.

Due to the format, once an arc finishes, they can then go on to new arcs, with different focus characters.

Like the next Issue has:

Story A, which puts the Amitie and Raffine rivalry back into focus for the first time since...Fever 1, really.

Story B stars Sig and Arle and explores the paralels between the Arle/Satan/Rulue and Sig/Oniko/Onion Pixie love triangles.

Story C puts Ringo and Klug together, to see how the two fellow smart students would play off of each other.

And then Story D is a slapstick-y one-off story where Ocean Prince is trying to hide from Otomo.

I really like the concept behind this format, because it would allow them to really play with the larger cast and be more character and interaction centric, which is what matters to me most in Puyo.

[moonlightselfships]

I have a new familial F/O! He’s Panotty from the Puyo Puyo series! He’s just a lil musical boi and I love him.  I haven’t thought of a tag for him yet but he’s Lemres and I’s newest son :D

[glitch-changx]

I actually wish to see panotty in future puyo games because I kinda feel like this character is not getting enough attention but I guess it would be nice to see more of the old puyo cast as well and I wonder how a new madou monogatari game would be like if one got developed today (at least I don't know about any new ones?) but I sure love how fucking dark it can be compared to the puyo series

[puyohero]

Puyo Puyo/Darkwing Duck AU characters

Hey there, gang. Well, I should be getting started on my fic soon, but in the event that I don’t, I’d like to at least go over some of the characters who I can confirm will be appearing in it. For the record, this list may change.

Choppun/Darkchop (W.I.P.) - Our hero and the main protagonist. A crime fighting-superhero. He fights crime with help from his sidekick, the gentle-hearted (and somewhat dim) musclebound Minotauros and on some occasions, alongside his adopted son, the mischievous flute-playing Panotty and his close friend and partner-in-crime, the equally mischievous prank-playing Archan. Darkchop's secret identity is that of Choppun, who lives with Panotty and Minotauros near the center of Primp Town. Despite his crime-fighting career, he can be hindered by his massive arrogance and ego. His competence varies by case, but when he finally hits his stride and focuses, the crimes are always foiled.

Minotauros -  Darkchop's trusted sidekick and (sort-of) bodyguard. He was Darkchop's biggest fan and begged to be his sidekick several times following their first meeting before Darkchop eventually accepted him. He occasionally refers to Darkchop as "D.C." and Darkchop likewise nicknames him "Mino". He’s fairly simple-minded (although he does have his insightful moments), loyal, modest and hard-working. Rumor has it that he has another employer aside from Darkchop. A young woman who dubs herself the...”fighting queen”? Apparently, someone must REALLY buy into their own hype...

Panotty - The adopted son of Choppun/Darkchop.  He’s a mischievous, impulsive, morally-sound, spunky, excitable, and well-meaning 9-year old elf who often gets himself into trouble. His wit is just as quick as his adoptive father's (if not more so), and is often brave to the point of foolhardiness. He is also forthright and honest with his friends and idolizes his adopted father. He loves playing his lucky flute that was passed down in his family through generations, but demands that others appreciate his music as much as he does. When he, his father, his friends, or his music is insulted, he can get very annoyed, if not vindictive.

Archan - A cute archer elf who is best friends with Panotty, whom she lives fairly close to. Normally, she's known by her friends and family to be quite mischievous and prone to whipping up lies to mess with unsuspecting people. For example, finding loopholes within her own promises allowing her to get her own way. Although, some occasions have revealed that she is somewhat shy around people she’s not too familiar with. Her love for pranks are usually her way of showing that she enjoys someone’s company. She is also aware of Choppun’s secret identity of Darkchop, though the details as to how are not clear. She's also surprisingly intelligent for her age, having a fairly basic grasp of classic art and literature.

I may as well mention it now, but the likes of the Madou-era, Fever-era and PP7 cast, as well as Quest-exclusive characters and Madou Monogatari-exclusive characters DO exist in this AU, they just don’t have much of a role, aside from making guest appearances/references made to them.

[heavenlysphere]

look at him. appreciate him.

[moonlightselfships]

Thank you, Mino! I did!!!!!!

I got a few gifts for Lemres, Otomo, and Panotty. Lemres got some high-quality vanilla for some fantastic sweets in the future. I got Otomo a cute lil bow tie! It’s not too much, but he looks real handsome in it! And I got Panotty another flute, of course! He played with it for hours upon unwrapping it, but I never got sick of it.

Otomo was light with his gifts. It was only a couple of months ago that Lemres and I started a polycule with him, so he wasn’t fully sure of what we were interested in. He just decided to get us the nicest seashells he could find, and that was good enough for us.

But Lemres? He went far and beyond with our gifts! He got pretty much everything on our wishlists, He didn’t need to take that many steps, but I love him for it. The smile on his face grew with every cheer we made as we got them, and it was as big as Tarutaru by the time we finished unwrapping our gifts.

Also, Panotty must’ve been awake overnight, cuz he hung a mistletoe right outside our bedroom without me, Lemres, or Otomo noticing. But the three of us noticed fairly quickly, and we all shared a big kiss and some laughs. It was one of the highlights of our Christmas.

Best Christmas of my life.

I hope y'all had a good Christmas with your f/os :D

[script-a-world]

(1) Im trying to create a world where mytholigical creatures have developed their own modern society, away from the humans. A vampire boy, that loves planes and wants to build one, gives a scientist permission to do experiments on his soul in excange for material to the plane. When he flies for the first time, something to do with the experiments makes him lose control over the plane and he crashes and dies.

(2) The scientist succeeds to bring him back from the dead, which the boy must keep a secret, so he runs away from his sister so she'll keep thinking he's dead. The sister traps herself and some other people in a cave to plan revenge. The scientist is also secretely working on a bigger project, that for some reason emitts some kind of toxic slime. The scientist dumps the slime in the lake outside his labratory, and the water and all the plants that absorb the water get toxic as well.

(3) I want this toxic slime thing, the vampire boy's story, and the fact that theyre all mythological creatures to be connected somehow, but i don't know how. I also don't know what kind of project the scientist could be working on that emitts all that slime. Do you have any ideas or tips?

constablewrites: You could possibly make the slime the source of everyone's powers, or a byproduct of that source. Like a physical manifestation of magic or whatnot. As far as tips, I see a whole lot of moving parts here, some of them potentially contradictory. (How can someone who's already undead get resurrected again?) The more ideas you try to cram into a story, the less room you have to explore any of them with any sort of depth. So if you've got an element you like but can't make fit in the story, that story may not the right place for it. I'm a big proponent of your characters driving the plot, so if they're having to act in ways that don't feel believable in order to allow something to happen, your readers are likely to pick up on that dissonance.

Synth: Some questions to think about, because we here at script-a-world love questions to get the creative thought juices flowing:

When you say "their own modern society," is this in the sense of The Masquerade, where it's a secret society mingling with and hidden amongst the regular populace, á la the wizarding world in the Harry Potter books? Or have these mythologicals set up their own country that everybody knows about, with treaties and agreements with neighbouring nations?

What kind of vampires are we talking here? The Twilight sparklebutt? The Anne Rice sex-bomb? The Bram Stoker classic? A version inspired by some other vamp-ish mythological creature (because there are some really weird regional variants on blood-sucking/soul-draining creatures out there {see: leyak, penanggalan}), perhaps? Maybe there are a variety of different types of vampires? (I would, however, suggest picking one, mmmaaaybe two types, to keep things simple, unless it becomes a vital plot point that there are many subspecies of vamp.) Are your vampires born that way, or are they made? If they are made, is vamp-boy’s sister also a vampire? Are they legit related to each other? You say your vampire boy was killed and then resurrected, and from his need to keep his resurrection secret (why does he need to do this?), this does not seem like a normal state of affairs, so I'll guess his species is not the undead variety of vamp.

What other mythologicals live in this society? Only those that are reasonably humanoid, or can disguise themselves as such (e.g., vampires, succubi, incubi, panotti, shapeshifters)? Humanoid *and* the more fantastical, that couldn’t possibly hide amongst humanity, like a roc, tikbalang or chimera? If there are non-humanoid mythologicals, are they sapient, or more like wildlife? If they are non-sapient wildlife, how are they kept contained to the mytho-only areas?

This scientist guy, is he a normal human, or is he a mytho too? If they live in a secret society, how did he come to know they exist, and what is his interest in studying them/their souls? What was the purpose of bringing the poor kid back to life?

Why does the kid’s resurrection have to be kept secret from his sister, and why is she plotting a roaring rampage of revenge because of his presumed death? Does she know/suspect that the scientist had something to do with it? Why does she need to be hiding in a cave to plot? Is her desire to avenge her brother frowned upon by the other inhabitants? These people she has sequestered in the cave with her: are they willing accomplices or were they coerced into assisting her?

The vegetation absorbing toxins from this icky slime is perfectly reasonable. That kind of thing happens right here on Earth when poisons get into the ground and water and work their way into the food chain, although toxins produced via mad science and/or questionable magic could have much weirder effects than just “everything is dead now”. Is the slime a byproduct of one of his experiments-of-potentially-questionable-ethics-and-legality? Is it an intentional result? Is there no equivalent of the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) in this universe to come along and go: “Dude, maybe don’t dump your gross goo in the water, hey?”

I agree with @constablewrites that you have a lot of stuff going on here, but I think if you plan carefully, you can make it work. But like @constablewrites said, don’t get so attached to a character or plot point that you can’t let it go if it doesn’t help move the story forward.

The vibe I get from the basic outline here is some kind of conspiracy/thriller/mystery tale. Maybe the scientist has some kind of personal grudge against the mythological community, and he plays on the vamp-boy’s desires in order to use him to further his secret anti-mytho vendetta. The boy’s death and resurrection were intentional for , and the toxic slime is played off as an oops byproduct but is actually the real goal because the scientist plans to poison/subdue/turn into mindless drones/etc. the mytho populace. Vampire-boy’s sister is the only one who suspects he’s up to something nefarious, and is out to prove it, regardless of how many people she has to go through, figuratively and literally, to get answers for her people and justice for her brother.

I would totally read a supernatural murder mystery eco thriller, by the way.
