Learn Japanese to Survive! Katakana War | Chapter 03: Searching For Truth

Go talk to Daisuke for a new lesson. But before you starts learning the new set, you will learn your first vocab lesson on topic “Places”. It consists of 10 words for each topic. Later that, you will learn the new set of Katakana.

S – サ シ ス セ ソ
Z – ザ ジ ズ ゼ ゾ

After you have set your party and buy some supply and equipments, proceed to the south east side to the warehouse. In case you missed it and lost, there is a narrow path near the playground. Fight the Obake that block your way and enter the warehouse.

Inside, you meet with the woman from the street mall. This time you receive a book and you will learn some magics for you to use throughout the battles.

Your character: Bolt, and Soothe.
Daisuke: Stone Shard, Soothe, Antitoxin, and Energize.
Tia: Gale.
Owen: Fire Bomb.
Charlotte: Hailstone, Soothe, Antitoxin, and Energize.
Andrea: Moonlight, and Soothe.

Remember that, using magic will not kill the Obake. It will only bring their HP to 1 even if you’re too powerful for them.

After you learned the magics, an Obake comes and fights you.

Challenge: Locate the mysterious woman!

You can’t go straight through the door yet since it’s locked. You can go either to the left or to the right wing. For this walkthrough, I go to the left wing. Go into the room and go down the stairs.

Go straight to the south and turn right, then turn north a bit and turn right again to take [Leather Jacket]. Go back to the fork and go to north a bit and take left this time to take 3x [Serum]s. Track back to the fork and go to the right and head north until you see another chest contains 3x [Canned Coffee]s. Go to the left to go down the stairs to B2.

You see the stairs on your south? Go there and climb the stairs until you reach G floor to take [Steel Rod]. Go back to B2 and continue to south, then turn right and head to the far north to take 2x [Revive]s in the chest. Take the stairs and climb it until you see a chest. Take [Brass Knuckles] and head back to B2. Go inside the lab and talk to the worker. She will give you [Warehouse Card Key] to unlock the big white door.

Track back to the G floor of the warehouse and go to the big white door and unlock it. Go take the stairs to find the mysterious woman at the upstairs. After a little conversation, suddenly, an Overlord Obake appears. The mysterious woman activates the block and you have to fight the Obake Overlord alone. The strategy is the same as the last battle, it will morph into a new katakana letter after you kill the previous one up to 6 letters overall.

Then she deactivates the block and the conversation continues. She promises you that she will meet you tomorrow. On your way back to your apartment, you meet with Mischa. She is a rock n’ roll chick and ready to kick butt and if you want her in your party, she is waiting for you near the playground area.

Now you are back to your apartment, get some rest and save your game.

First thing you need to do is go to south-east and you will see the (!!) sign. Go to that person and talk to her. Her name is Megumi and she is the owner of the apartment. Since her tenants run away from their apartments, now you can take one as yours. Your room is on the right next to Tia’s. After you get the key from Daisuke, go inside to your room and take some rest. Don’t forget to open up the fridge and take [Ramune]. Now go outside to meet up with Daisuke.

**Affection menu is now activated. Now you can get an affection point for each of your friends and get to see their affection event when the level has reach 100, 300, and 500 point.
** You can add your friends into your party by talking with them and choose [Add to party]. If you want to replace them with other character, talk to them again and pick [Remove from party] option.

After you finish choosing your party, go talk to Daisuke. If you can’t find him, there is a symbol () floating on his head. Choose [View lesson options] and click on [Continue with new lessons].

In this lesson, you will learn the second set of Katakana letters for K and G syllables:

K – キ ク ケ コ
G – ギ グ ゲ ゴ

Now you need to find the Obake that you have learned. Head to east to open your way to the street mall.

After you enter the new area, fight the first Obake, and then go a little step to the right and you will find a lady. Talk with her for a little bit. And your task begins.

Challenge: Rescue 6 people!

Go straight to the right and fight some Obake that block your way. There is a chest contains [Bicycle Helmet], take it. Not that far from the chest, there is a person you need to rescue. Talk to him.

Now you need to find another 5 people. Head down a little bit and start to hit left. Fight some Obake again and then you will see another man standing next to the building. Talk to him and you have to find another 4 people. Near to the man is another chest contains 2x [Revive]s. Continue to the left. And before you hit to the end of the road, there is a woman stands next to the chest that has 612. You are half way to go!

Turn south and continue to the right and before you hit the road, there is a lady you need to rescue. Another 2 persons you need to find. Go straight to the right and fight Obake. Another man is waiting for you at the between of the building, go talk to him. 



Go straight to the right and near the fountain is another chest, take [Short Sword] and talk to the last person that you need to rescue. Daisuke will assist you to go back to your starting point and he senses something strange is going to happen. Suddenly, there is a woman in silhouette appears. She asks you to leave, but it is too late. She walks away and an Overlord Obake appears right in front of you!

Overlord Obake is a polymorph kinda boss creature that consists of a set of Katakana letters that you have learned. After you defeat one letter, it will morph into another letter and it takes about 5 letters overall.


After you defeat it, on your way to your apartment, the girl that you rescued bumps into you and introduces herself as Andrea. Now you can take her into your party!

Now you're in some hill area. Right after you talk to Magic Man, he will disappear and you have to battle. You will unlock a new sword: Sword of the Dead. With this sword, whenever you use its power on a enemy, the enemy will help you throughout the battle. Isn't it great?

Now, take [Steering Wheel] from the truck. Use the well and take [Hammer] from it. Go up the path and you will meet Magic Man and Candy Guy. He will put Candy Guy on the cart and leave him dancing in there. Take [Witch Hazel] on the right. Now walk near the mine shaft and repair the boards with [Hammer]. Then go to the post and put [Steering Wheel] and use it. The cart will fall down and you have to go back to the previous area. Talk to Candy Guy and take [Old Jar].

Go through the mine door and take [Sunflower] near the door and go back to previous area to put [Sunflower] on the pile of dirt. Now the bees are heading to it, it's your time to take some honey from their nest! Use [Old Jar] on the beehive. Go back through the mine door and approach Tree Trunks. Magic Man will appear beside her alongside with the Candy Guy. He also brings red ants to bring chaos on the picnic! Use [Jar of Honey] on the anthill. Now you have clear the path! Go there.

Once again, Magic Man is not enough bullying the Candy Guy. Now he puts him in poison ivy bush. Go up side and use [Earplugs] on Forest Wizard. He tells you about making potion. Use [Witch Hazel] and put it into the potion machine and scoop the potion with [Old Jar]. Talk to Forest Wizard to get earplugs back and use [Witch Hazel Potion] on Candy Guy. Now go straight to the left.

You are now at the outside of Magic Man's house. There is a [Snail] near the green car, interact with it. Continue to the left and Finn will shout Magic Man's name. He will appear later that and conversation happens. The music in the head has stopped. Unfortunately, Magic Man teleport the Candy Guy to be the same place as you are and he tells you that there is an awful noise.

After you give him the earplugs, head to the left to investigate the source of the noise. There is Lemongrab. He is searching for his sword that it has been missing. And the noise is from Lemonhead. You have to stop it and offer him some help to find his sword back. Follow his order and you reach in a forest where the Flame Princess' house is. Go and talk to the Flame Princess.

Now you have to help her to complete the fence. Pick up the [Fence Post] near Cinnamon Bun and take it to the edge of the fence. Use [Jake] to drive in the fence. Suddenly, Flame Princess has an idea about Jake's gas problem since Incendo has a very sensitive nose. Now you have to set the ambush for him.

But first, pick up [Plastic Bag] from the pole at the left cliff corner. Then go down the stairs and use [Jake] to put some weigh on the buoy, so that you can pick another [Plastic Bag] up. Then walk up the ramp and take the last [Plastic Bag]. Don't forget to take [Speaker Diaphragm] at the old broken car. Now all you need is to combine all the [Plastic Bag] with [Jake] to make [Stink Bomb]s. Talk to the Flame Princess and she will open up the path. Go through it.

You have to set up the [Stink Bomb] and tie them up at the tires. After you set the traps, she will let Incendo's minions and put you into a battle. Fight them, later after you defeat them, Incendo will enter the battle. The strategy is, you need to let Incendo comes closer to the trap. Once he comes closer, Flame Princess will shoot the bomb and put Incendo the damage. Do it for all the three traps and he will defeated.

Go back to Flame Princess and talk to her. She will open up another path to meet Combuster. But before that, you have to find out a way to crack his anger. Go through the path. Slime Princess will walk pass you and she is not in the mood. You meet with the Ice King. He looks upset, talk to him. Jake has an idea to defeat Combuster but you need help from Ice King.

Use [Fence Post] on the bubbly spot and use [Jake] on it to make a geyser. Talk to Ice King to freeze it into a solid ice. Repeat the process to another bubbly spot and talk to Ice King again to freeze it. After Ice King walk away, Flame Princess will come to you and another battle is set up. Fight Combuster's minions first and he will enter the battle once his minions is defeated. This time strategy is, make sure you stand behind the frozen geyser. Once he is ready to charge to you, walk away from the geyser and he will hit the geyser instead of yourself. He will go down after he hits all three frozen geyser.

Go back to the forest and talk to Flame Princess. She will open up the path and go through it. In there, you will find LSP testing her mic, ready to sing. You have to fix the speaker. First, go to the right corner to meet the [Snail]. Then go near to the broken speaker and put [Speaker Diaphragm] into it. She will rehearse and something is not right with the speaker. Turn the speaker with [Sword] and she continues to rehearse again. She doesn't satisfy with the sound and repeat the step again to turn the speaker again. She still annoyed with the sound and walk away.

With the speaker and mic here, now you have a way to defeat Leroy. Like the previous battle, Leroy only enter the battle after you have defeated his minions. Once he comes, make sure you direct the speaker to his position and stand behind the mic so that he attack you with his Sound Sword and the sound wave produced will hit him.

Now Flame Princess can go home to the Fire Kingdom once again. And you have to bring Sound Sword to Lemongrab. Enter his castle and you will see that Magic Man tells Lemongrab that you are the one who stole the sword. Lemongrab gets mad and he throws you into the dungeon.

To free yourself, take the [Shock Collar] and [Marker]. Then use [Jake] to the hole and use [File] on the cell door to proceed through. Take the [Filed Prison Bar] and catch up the [Snail] on the barrel. Then go up the stair.

Take the [Short Rope] on the wall near the door. Enter the far left door. Take [Lemonsweets] from the doll house and read the note near it. Now use [Marker] on the note to put a prank. Take [Sleeping Bonnets] from the shelf and combine it with [Short Rope]. Use [Sleeping Bonnet Rope] on the radiator. Lemongrab will come into the room and he gets furious when he finds out that Lemonsweets is gone. Go talk to him and Finn will kick Lemongrab out of the window.

Go back to the hallway and enter into another room in the middle. Take [Remote Control] and put [Lemonsweets] on the mitt. Then use [Filed Prison Bar] on the mitt. Now go outside back to the hallway and interact with the machine on the right. Finn will put the [Shock Collar] on his neck and use [Remote Control] on the device. His scream will open up the door. Enter the new room and go to the pool and fill in the jar with water. Go back to the prank room and go behind the curtain wall. Lemongrab will enter the room and try to reach to save Lemonsweets. But he stuck there. Use the [Jar with Water] on him.

Once the prank is succeeded, go out of the room and you will bump into Magic Man. He will teleport you into the reconditional chamber. Use [Jake] under the vent. Jake will ask you to give him the collar and then he stretches his arm and put the collar on Lemongrab. He hits the door button and you can get out from there. Go to the control machine and use [Sword] to smash it. Before the machine is gone out of control, Magic Man appears in the chamber and without his notice, he got shock.


Learn Japanese to Survive! Katakana War | Chapter 01: Welcome to Osaka, Japan!

Hello, everyone! 

This is the walkthrough for Learn Japanese to Survive! Katakana War. It is an education game with adventure and fun within! The game is good for people that want to learn Katakana letters and some basic Japanese words. With the simple graphic brings you down to the memory lane of 90's games. I recommend you to buy the game with the DLCs for future reference on Katakana.

Upon the intro, first, you have to choose if you want to play a girl or a boy as your character. Then you have to pick your strength. There are four choices:

[A] Graceful and calm, like a crane.
[B] Tough and sturdy, like a bear.
[C] Ferocious and strong, like a dragon.
[D] Quick and agile, like a gecko.

After you pick your strength, you have to enter your name. Finally, you need to confirm everything you choose because you will carry your character throughout the game. 


CHAPTER 1
WELCOME TO OSAKA, JAPAN!

The game starts with Owen orders a soda, and Tia wants some coffee but she doesn't know how to tell the waiter. Then the two meet up at the center and talk. And then, you meet Charlotte in the middle of their conversation.

Next scene, you will see your character bump into a bookstore. And you're searching for a book to learn Japanese. Suddenly, there is something happened outside and a guy will walk in to the store and warns everyone. Talk to that guy and he will tell you about the situation; there was a huge explosion at the street and everyone needs to evacuate.

Once outside, there are katakana monsters and he tells you to bring Charlotte, Owen, and Tia away from the enemies. He fights with them and manages to find out their weakness.

Later, he introduces himself as Daisuke. He will bring you to the classroom. From now on, he is your teacher. He will teach you Katakana and some basic Japanese words.

So, this is your first lesson of Katakana. You will learn the vowels:

A, I, U, E, O.
, , , , .

Then you have a quiz! Choose with the right answer. 

Later, there is another explosion(?) and you need to check out the noise. Go through the door to go to the hallway. Go to your right and there is the katakana monster. Upon the battle, Daisuke will join you and he gives you [Wooden Ruler] as your weapon. After you finish the battle, he gives you 3x [Ramune]s. It is a potion that recovers HP.

Challenge: Vanquish 8 enemies!

You need to go in to each room to kick all those katakana monsters with the Katakana that you have learned. First room is on your north, go inside and battle the first monster. Take [60] and go to the next room for the second monster. After that, go to another room next to your current room for the third monster and fight. Inside the room, there is a chest contains [Revive].

You cannot go into the next room on the right yet, so go down and meet up with the fourth monster in the hallway. Then go to the left and enter the room to fight with the fifth monster. Don't forget to open the chest, it has [Gym Uniform], equip it to your character and proceed to the next room to the left. Another katakana monster in there and that makes the sixth. The seventh monster is in the next room, go inside and fight them. Pick up the [Janitor's Key] inside the chest and now get ready to go to the upper far right room.

Unlock the door with the key and enter the room to face with the last monster. The golden-colored monster is called Katakana Omega. It has a higher HP than the regular monsters. Fight them all and after you have done it, Daisuke will tell you to go back to the classroom. But~ you have to choose [I'll go later] option if you want to pick up [Revive] in the chest. If you don't want to, choose [Go to classroom] instead.


Go back to the classroom on the far left and regroup.
