huepow: LEPHISE FORBID WOMEN DO ANYTHING lephise: ??? is that a request ???

[rissahs]

its been a couple days since i finished the first klonoa game and im still thinking about that ending tbh

it just feels so rare to have a platformer aimed at kids with a sad ending that doesn't try to soften the tragedy? like. they reveal that klonoa is not from phantomile and all his memories of living there were fake all along, and now that the evil is defeated and lephise is saved he can no longer exist in this world and gets forcibly pulled out of it. they do the tragic last moments with huepow trying to hold onto him while klonoa is screaming that he doesn't want to go, and then that's it. he's just Gone

there's no post-credits scene which suggests that the door to phantomile may reopen and klonoa can return to see his friend again. there's no happy 'true' ending if you 100% the game. hell huepow's 'ill always be with you' speech is said upon defeating the final boss and then he returns almost instantly afterwards, not during the parting scene. they just tear these two friends apart forever right in front of you and you have to sit there and Deal With That just like how huepow is left to cry alone

... and then if you saved the other residents you unlock the extra stage which just Does Not explain why klonoa is back to witness balue get rejected by his waifu lephise at all, but hey. cant win em all

i say this because there are four explicitly said to be gods in dtp's wiimake manual (though in the psx manual, they are just referred to as "spirits") and one in lunatea's veil. However there's also ghadius, the dark spirit, and a never-referred-to-but-there-has-to-be-one-because-it-just-makes-sense-i'm-just-filling-in-the-blanks sun spirit, who despite not being referred to as gods (or at all), may count as gods.

some people also think lephise is a deity? no idea where that comes from but it's an idea. so. possibly eight* gods in the klonoa franchise

there are quite possibly seven gods in the klonoa franchise

imtrying 2 engage in ur interests tell me more abt the critters and creatures in kolona door to phantomile pls

OH COOL well immm not too sure how to explain things without spoiling too many things abt the games story but ill try my best <=] (oh god this got really long im so sorry. i dont know how to explain things without making them massive paragraphs <//3)

so first off obviosuly youve got klonoa, main/titular chaarcter the guy you play as. hes just a little guy (literally hes like canonically nine yrs old or smthn in door to phantomile) and here for a good time! the game kickstarts with him finding this ring in a forest near his house, which contains this wind spirit named huepow ! huepow basically just works as the backbone of the gameplay mechanics (lets you grab n throw enemies) + is klonoas buddy throught the game . klonoa is this like. weird rabbit cat creature Thing its kinda purposely left ambiguous and like every other character is the game is some funny looking made up species

in phantomile (the world that game takes place in) theres four large groups all themed after a different elemment (so klonoa is from wind village, the second area you go trough is forlock forest(nature/plant life), then jugpot falls(water) and the sun kingdom which is in the sky .

in the first level where youre running theough wind village to inspect this weird thing klonoa heard crashing into the hill at the center of the village, you meet this guy named balue who basically gives an exposition dump explaining hes building a tower in an attempt to get to the ‘moon kingdom’, which is basically this in universe myth/legend and klonoa kinda thinks hes just saying some crazy bullshit but balues motivation to go there is cuz he wants to meet this diva popstar type girl named lephise (except shes actually like incredibly fucking important to the state of the world they live in like. as a whole. balue kinda glosses over this himself but its made pretty clear not too long afterwards)

anyways so klonoa and huepow make it to the hill and there they meet the main villains, joka (this funny jester orb guy whos like the second in command. hes a horrid little creature and i want him dead /silly) and ghadius (its kinda unclear what this guy even… is at first. but hes basically the big boss in charge of all the shit that goes Wrong throughout thw game, and wants to turn the world into an ‘eternal nightmare’) uh the two of them are badically just talking to this fucking. unconsious girl(who you find out is lephise) and basically theyre just plotting n schemeing, trying to find this special mcguffin blah blah blah.

funny thing abt the enemies in thsi game is that theyre fucking adorable?? like the main grunts youll find are these little guys called moos and theres a buncha variants of them and rheyre just the cutest little things in the world.. whats funny is theyre supposed to be made of ‘pure nightmares’ or whatever lmao

oh yeah the game has this whole dream motif throughout the whole thing.. theres more to it than what ive mentioned but that gets into real heavy spoiler territory hehe

uh i dont know where to end this theres so much more i could say.. like uhh everyone in the game is voice acted but they all speak in funny little animal crossing esque noises. but everyone has their own unique kinds of noises they made if that makes sense?? like characters from the same region or of the same species will have simlar sounds but their individual voices also sound different. i dont knkw how to explain it well but it makes sense when listening to the voicelines hsgshgs

I”m open to doing more, but idk when. I’ve basically been bouncing between Klonoa fan art and my webcomic lately.

(these pictures feel so warm to me lol i love em all)

[patchdotexe]

here are some ideas for tokiponaised klonoa character names:

klonoa = kulona

huepow = pupo (😔)

ghadius = katesu

karal = kalu

solare = either solalu or sunolu

soleil = either soleli or sunoli

baguji = bakuja

some characters' names are easy to tokiponaise, like lepisu [lephise] or popuka [popka]. but others, especially characters whose names are titles (moon queen, high priestess, king of sorrow), or are a bit punny (seadoph) are a bit hard to think of names for in a way that sounds similar and gets the point across. i am very lucky that solare and soleil's names easy work like that in toki pona. you can even really emphasise the "sol"/"solar" part of their names, too, and it still works.

ooh, heck yeah!! poor huepow pupo though.............

[sweetness-pop]

Imagine being an 18 year old Lunatean sky pirate and you now have this tall 40 year old purple tomcat hunter, known as "Poison Claws" madly infatuated with you non-stop, and it's so damn creepy!

-Leorina, as she gets disgusted by Janga developing an unhealthy attraction towards her despite the long age gap of possibly 20+ years!

Eeewww!!!

-Lolo, Tat, Lephise, and Anemon as they have a girls' get-together, and are also grossed out by what Leo had just told them!

(What if Klonoa happened to pass by at the part where the Sky Pirate mentioned Janga's nasty crush on her, and the Dream Traveler along with Huepow, now disgusted, also went "Eeewww!!!"?)
