NxC Chapter 2-1: Bravo's World

YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY THE MORE TH-*cough* Uh, sorry...uhm...

So, this is the Mishima building?
Are you sure about all this Mishima having "the" virus stuff?
It might just be "a" virus or "some" virus.

The info came from a reliable source---Otherwise, no way in hell I'd be here.
What do you think I am, an idiot? GOSH...

Oh god the text is fallING OFF THE SCREEN AAAAAAH

But those're just rumors---nothing concrete. Not big enough to forget Shadowloo
First dinosaurs, then chasing chicks in tight outfits; Regina's done it all!

---Since I've got their Third Energy summary files, I doubt they'll do something funny now.
Unless they, like, backed up their data or wrote it down somewhere, but I doubt it.

That's good, but can't you do something about your clothes? They really "stand oout"
A) I love when they make typos in "quoted" words because it sounds like they meant to say the word that way.
B) Oh yeah Regina's clothes really stand out, but it could be worse, she could be, like, y'know, A BLUE SKINNED CHICK IN PURPLE/PINK CLOTHES GODDAMN BRUCE YOU IDIOT

---And whose fault is that?
...uh, yours?

You're the one who insisted I help get things under control on the boat.
"I had to put on my boat-control clothes and everything!"

Man, what a Donggua.
Augh, are you we STILL on about that?

Yeah, and thanks to him, we got stuck with "her"
I don't know which 'her' is which and I don't know why either would be a problem.

Hey ladies, it takes two to tango. I just made the damn suggestion.
"It didn't make any sense at all, but it was just a suggestion!"

Hmm---He's got a point.
...NO HE DOESN'T

So. Remind me who we're waiting for again?
I wonder where those karate guys went off to?
"HA HA NOT TO CHANGE THE SUBJECT OR ANYTHING HA HA"

We're waiting for the "Shinra" - Japan's Special Ops
"Composed of about 2 people"

And those karate guys seemed to have left the boat same time we did. So---
...so...?

Shinra? Never heard of 'em.Can we trust?
I DONT HAVE THE ABILITY TO TRUST

I only know what the brass told me. ---Seems they've been around for ages, they just prefer to be hidden.
Well they're certainly doing a bang-up job!

Line an anti-terror squad?
More like "anti-occult".
I dunno. Sounds sketchy to me.
Because a random girl would know more than government agents, right?

Speaking of which---
Since we're stuck here waiting---There's a lot I want to ask you.
...the what the hell was Fongling going to say?

"Excusse my lissp"

Got a question
Need answer.

That incident at the Namco Theater. Why did you sortie the Androids?

...

BWUAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA AHA AHAH AHA HAHA AHAH AHA AHAHAHAHHA AHA AHAHAH

Good fucking GOD, look at him! Bravo Man's archnemesis: the man with the purple mushroom cloud for a haircut. Holy fucking shit he couldn't look anymore lame even if you tried. Imagine if you were this guy's partner it crime; you'd be a fucking laughing stock.

I think you're misunderstanding.
What do you plan to do huh? Throw me out on the street?
---I know how you think. You and you excuses already.
I'm just finding this conversation really, REALLY hard to take seriously.

Hehehe---project WAYA has entered its last phase.
Hmm?
Musou Battou Ryuu---The lost ninia techniques---Analysis complete. My daughter will be invinsible!
He doesn't strike me as the kind of guy who would care about ninja techniques.

O HI hachi!

Well, you got my hopes up. Don't let any more "Masked Men" take you down---
Rorschach's gonna be pissed!

The storyboard here is really wonky at times. Characters will disappear for no reason or the entire screen will be cleared so that one character can move to the opposite side of the screen.

As for the actual caption: "....as stupid as they are."

You, who lost everything in the "Shinda" incident.
Ya shin'da underestimated them!

I've got a job for you, Bakuda
Oooooooooh, Bakuda~

---Some annoying pests are near the building.
pests?
Yes---trying to spy my doings.
Say goodbye to ya secret crap, dumbass!

Make them disappear and I'll forget your "failure".
Who?
Not your concern.
I'm sure it makes a BIG DIFFERENCE to you.

(I knew the man many enemies--- But those guys seem like agents to me---)
Warn the others. Agents are coming. :neo:

Anyway, Bakuda leaves and Heihachi has a bit of monologue
A.U.S.F is it? I suppose they think I've got "that" virus. ---Well, that had been the plan---
Plot point, or possible translation screwup? Oh well!

"Boy, I'm pretty fucking lost!"

Looks like this place was destroyed...
...it does? Looked fine from where I was standing...

..........No one would have chased me this far. I hate to do this to those folks from the boat, but......I haven't come this far for nothing...
Uh...thanks game. This was a great and powerful cutscene.

In the toliet of the cosmos

Okay this conversation is pretty stupid and writing it out in text would be confusing since even I don't know whos talking at what times. All you would gather from this is that one of these mentions how it's been '10 years' since 'it all happened' and 'i met that man', mentioning that someone with Reiji's family's name is now 'gone'.

You WOULD gather that, except you probably don't remember that name and you would be completely lost unless you have the knowledge of the forward plot, unlike me when i played through this, and like me now that I have.

So anyway ALRIGHT WELCOME TO THE METROPOLIS

Tired of plot exposition OUTSIDE of gameplay? Let's have some more DURING gameplay! That will spice things up.

You died once, used some Eastern magic, and came back from the dead?
I don't think I would consider save states 'eastern magic'...

Meaning the virus, is not the only way to make zombies.
Well if you consider every character in this game canon, you could probably find about 15 different ways to make zombies, so, great.

You got it. Of course, I'm a kyon xie.
Which is much different than a Jiangshi or a CHINESE VAMPIRE or any of the other 100 fucking words used to describe the same damn type of undead

So, what was a Dark Stalker doing aboard the Spenser Lane back then?
I felt immense power. There's gotta be a big hole in Japan.
...wait I thought the RE guys were responsible for oh fuck forget it

Oh, and I guess now is as good a time as any to mention: No matter what logic you put toward it, it makes absolutely zero sense that Lei-Lei would even be, well, here. I won't get into the details but just know that it's pretty much impossible for her to still be undead and be anywhere outside of whatever realm the games take place in.

Huh? A "hole"?
It's like a highway between this world and another.
A highway to ~~hell~~ da demon wurld

.........
Something wrong?
Ain't it a bit too quiet, huh?
Yes, indeed...
...it's the outside of an office building. The hell do you want it to sound like?

Ooooh, it was quiet because these guys were all storming outside!

...

"But fuck Lei Lei and Fongling, they can go eat a dick and die for all I care!"

These guys will probably fuck me up if I advance, so I play coward a bit with my long range!

AKA "Pistol Daimyo" who was a Bravo Man enemy who starred in his own spinoff game. Not a fucking clue why but oh well. It also happened to be reviewed by the OCR guys so hey

getin in fites

I "learned" how to use Spare Cartridges! Alright!

These guys have the weirdest voice clips on their turn start.

TAKE IT LIKE A MAN, SHORTY

RUN OR SHOOT, RUN OR SHOOT

Seems to be a pattern here

Two down. But man, they don't look like robots.
Who do you think our enemy is? They've got incredibly technology.
Yeah they have the technology to create REALLY stupid looking robots that throw daggers. Joy.

Ever heard of the phrase "Made in Japan"?
They do look pretty goofy
She certainly understands the japanese pretty well!

ENEMY FROM THE REAR

Wow, he even has an enemy recolor with a completely unoriginal name. This certainly is the "The Wonderful World of Bravo Man" chapter.

Who're you? You look human enough, but what's with the get-up?
Is that some American humor? Pathetic...
Shit, the japanese think we have bad fashion sense because we don't wear bright colors and stupid giant letters on our heads! I hate those guys!!

That looks like a protector to me.
It looks like Shadow and a stupid superhero mixed together to me.

Can you get serious for a minute?
GET SERIOUS!

That kind of comment won't help at all. Now watch this...Answer me! Why are you after us?
A++ there Regina

I'm after you because I was ordered to. I'll kill you.
"When I'm ordered to."

"God we should have NEVER asked...pff..."

Here we go a-jin

What...? Who're you?
I'm Jin Kazama. Wasn't Heihachi who gave the order to kill?
Who knows.
...uh, you do, I hope.

We meet again, and right at Mishima's gates. Very odd.. (If the files are right...he's Heihachi's grandson...)
...then why the hell is it 'odd' that you met him here?

Hey, isn't he the guy Zabel latched on to?
"I'll do anything, just keep Zabel busy and away from me, please!"

Sorry about this. Looks like we're in yer way.
Don't worry bout it. I'm just fighting for my cause. Let's do it!
Haha, you know what would be funny, is if I had absolutely no idea how to properly end this post.
