$B%l%6!<%9!<%D(J (Leather Suit)
Extra costume for Jyuubei, comes complete with a pair of sunglasses.
Clear game with $B54Ip<T(J (Onimusha) rank to use the Leather Suit. It is in a
treasure chest at the 21st floor of the Purple Illusion Dream Dimension,
just inspect the spot where you pulled out the $BNu2P7u(J from.
Oyuu Costume Change
Accomplish 100% Scenario to unlock an extra costume for Oyuu.
Turn into Onimusha
After absorbing 5 Purple Souls, Jyuubei will transform into an Onimusha.
When as an Onimusha, Jyuubei is invincible, and can perform strong attacks.
When as an Onimusha, press the Triangle button to shoot energy blasts.
Jyuubei will return to normal when the Onimusha gage reaches 0.
Degree of Friendliness
There is a hidden Degree of Friendliness meter in the game between Jyuubei
and the sub-characters. The Degree of Friendliness with a sub-character
determines whether he will appear when Jyuubei is in trouble to fight by
Jyuubei's side.
The Degree of Friendliness is altered by Jyuubei giving out items and
sometimes receiving items in return.
Pay attention to your conversations with the sub-characters. Give a
sub-character the items he said he liked or was searching for to raise the
Degree of Friendliness with him. Be careful not to give a sub-character an
item he does not want, for doing so will cause the Degree of Friendliness
with that sub-character to drop.
Also of note, there seems to be an opposing relation between Jyuubei's
Degree of Friendliness with one sub-character against another.
If Jyuubei's Degree of Friendliness with Oyuu increases, his Degree of
Friendliness with Kotarou decreases. And vice versa.
If Jyuubei's Degree of Friendliness with Ekei increases, his Degree of
Friendliness with Magoichi decreases. And vice versa.
$BK:$l2V(J (Forget Flower)
If you think you gave a sub-character something wrong and caused your degree
of friendliness with that sub-character to drop, give that sub-character a
Forget Flower and he/she will forget the previous thing you did.
$BDA$7$$%-%N%3(J (Rare Mushroom)
Give a sub-character a Rare Mushroom and that sub-character will hallucinate
and see illusions, then he/she will give you an item.
Using the Rare Mushroom does not effect your degree of friendliness with
that sub-character. (not completely sure)
Pause Game
Press the Select button during the game to pause the in-game clock. When
trying for a low game complete time, pause the game with the Select button.
HP Tip
When your character's Life Gage drops to 1/8 of the maximum, the Life Gage
will start to blink. When in this condition, the character will only receive
1/2 the usual damage when hit by enemies.
