Dialogue[]
Meet up with Astra Yao[]
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Today is the semi-finals for "Ridu's Got Boo"... One last step to the finals!)
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Astra is probably waiting at Starloop. Time to meet her.)
- (Talk to Astra Yao)
- Astra Yao: Alright, coming! Let me see the new outfit you made yesterday...
Why are you in a hurry to see it?
Don't you trust my design?- Astra Yao: That's not it! Just show me.
- Astra Yao: Oh, it's so cute! I think... it's fine?
Did something happen?
Are you nervous?- Astra Yao: The competition details have been released. Our opponent today is...
- Astra Yao: I know saying this isn't good for morale, but today's opponent is a tough one...
Astra, where did your confidence go?- Astra Yao: You know my intuition's never wrong. Our opponent today is no ordinary Bangboo...!
- Astra Yao: I can tell from its gaze on the contestant's profile that it's skilled at getting to the hearts of people.
A brainwashing Bangboo?
- Astra Yao: I mean capturing the audience's attention!
A surgeon Bangboo?
- Astra Yao: ...Not that kind of heart-grabbing!
- Astra Yao: Wait, were you joking?
Eous has undergone special training.
Haven't we done well so far?- Astra Yao: Trust me! You can't underestimate the opponent today!
Shall we investigate?
Let's see if the opponent is in the hall...- Astra Yao: I think so too. We should gather info before the competition starts.
- Astra Yao: The name of our opponent's Bangboo is... "Robin."
Find the Bangboo named Robin[]
- (Talk to Astra Yao again, optional)
- Astra Yao: "Robin"... is it the Robin who gives or the Robin who takes?
- (Talk to Robin)
- Robin: Hello
You can speak human language?!
No need for "Ehn-na-nu-nah"?- Robin: Not many Bangboo can speak human language, but they aren't that rare. Don't be so surprised.
(So composed...!)
(So cool...!)- Robin: If you want an autograph or a picture, please don't ask me. I'm not a celebrity. My apologies.
- Robin: SOrry [sic] if I stole your heart.
Are you a magician?
Are you a thief?- Robin: Maybe, think what you may.
- Astra Yao: Wow...
- Astra seems to want to say something to Eous, but she is interrupted by loud footsteps...
A blond young man stands next to Robin and looks over with a faint smile.
Talk to the blonde young man[]
- (Talk to Blond Man)
- Blond Man: Robin, who are they?
- Robin: No idea.
- Astra Yao: We forgot to introduce ourselves. My name is...
- Blond Man: Um... Let me see... You're Robin's opponents for today, aren't you?
- Robin: Ehn-ne?!
You're speaking in Bangboo!- Robin: Ahem... I'm just a little surprised. I didn't think my opponent would seek me out... Are you here to leave me with a taunt? In that case, I accept the challenge.
- Blond Man: This Bangboo is named Eous, right? It looks so plain when it isn't on the stage, but I remember its charm...
- Blond Man: Is the sudden appearance change on the stage meant to hide something?
Well, what about those who don't reveal their name?
Are they trying to hide something?- Blond Man: I'm Robin's partner. Would this introduction suffice?
- Blond Man: Do you perhaps have another identity besides Eous's partner?
- Blond Man: Very humorous. This is the only identity we need on the Starloop stage.
- Astra Yao: You two are weird. Why are you talking in riddles?
- Blond Man: Hah, is this lady trying to declare her true identity?
- Astra smiles at the blonde man's friendly jibe and removes her sunglasses.
- Astra Yao: I'm Astra Yao, and what about that?
- Blond Man: ...
- Blond Man: You are indeed charming.
- Astra Yao: I know there's no need to pretend anymore, and someone like you wouldn't be ignorant about my identity.
Even an ordinary person...
Would realize...- Astra Yao: Don... [sic]Stop teasing me! I know that Eve's protection is what allows me to... I... I always thank Eve!
- Blond Man: You two seem close. Could you be her...?
Companion.
- Blond Man: I see.
Friend.
- Blond Man: I see.
Anything is possible.
- Blond Man: Oh...?
- Astra Yao: Alright! Let's talk about something else!
- Blond Man: Certainly. I heard that there was an accident at Miss Yao's concert. Many reports are unclear, but I would love to hear what those present have to say about it.
Why are you so interested?- Blond Man: Hmm... I'm a collector. Many collectibles and artworks are valuable not because of what they are, but priceless due to the stories they contain.
- Blond Man: On that day, Starloop Tower was almost reduced to ashes. I'm very interested in such exorbitant stories.
- You glance at Astra. She doesn't seem to mind. You briefly recount the incident at Starloop to the blonde man.
- Blond Man: So, Miss Yao used her voice to control the Harmonic Core and saved everyone?
- Astra Yao: Not just my voice, but the voices of everyone! Hemiola's resonance efficiency is superb, but just my voice alone couldn't have stopped the disaster.
- Blond Man: Hemiola?
- Astra Yao: It's my mic — I had it custom-made, and Joran's Legacy is stored in it now. Hmm... Perhaps this mic would be a collectible like the ones you spoke of in many years.
- Blond Man: Oh? Would you mind if I took a look? The custom-made microphone of Ridu's Queen — I've never seen such a treasure.
- Astra takes out Hemiola and hands it to the blonde man who has put on gloves. After scrutinizing it, he returns the microphone to Astra.
- Blond Man: Very impressive. It deserves to be treasured like a queen's jeweled crown... but I hope something so precious to its owner will never end up in the hands of those who don't deserve it.
- Blond Man: Thank you, Miss Yao. I apologize for taking up so much of your time. I should prepare for the competition with Robin.
- The blonde man gives you a nod and leaves with Robin...
- Astra Yao: A strange person... but I doubt he's a bad person.
- Astra Yao: When you were talking about the concert, he said it was a horrifying event, but he didn't look the slightest bit horrified!
I guess that's the nature of royalty.
Overly-Polite Guy- Astra Yao: But he was right about one thing. It's time to prepare for the competition...
- Astra Yao: Hmm, no problem! Eous will definitely win!
Complete the semifinals of "Ridu's Got Boo"[]
- (Talk to Astra Yao and Eous, optional)
- Astra Yao: "Collector", huh...
- Astra Yao: Whatever! Eous definitely won't lose, right Eous–
- Eous: Hmm, yeah...
- (Talk to Blond Man and Robin, optional)
- Golden-Haired Youth: Do you still want to finish the race?
- Robin: Yes.
- (Talk to Unknown Girl, optional)
- Strange Young Lady: With so many Bangboo... could Phaethon-san also...
- (After completing the stage)
- Paige: Congratulations, Contestant Eous! And its partner! This is a very special situation!
- Paige: Tie! It's a tie!
What?!
A tie can happen?- Paige: It's true. The committee has been over it for a while now. I guess we're in a fix...
- Unknown Girl: A tie? You tied with Robin?
You are...?- Unknown Girl: Not a fan of you.
- Unknown Girl: But it's pretty cool how you guys held your own against that Robin...
- The mysterious girl vanishes...
- Paige: Maybe there'll be a rematch...
- Paige: Oh? What... What is this?
- Paige: W—Withdrawing?!
Huh?
Forfeiting after a draw? That's really harsh.- Paige: No, that's not it! Sorry, I didn't explain clearly. Contestant Robin has withdrawn from the competition!
...- Paige: I guess the issue is resolved...
- Paige: What a pity! Contestant Robin was clearly very good...
Aren't you rooting for Eous?- Paige: Yeah, I'm cheering for Eous, but... this is really sudden...
- Paige: Did my colleague in charge of Contestant Robin offend them? Gosh, we won't hear complaints, right?
- Paige: Yikes... You guys aren't going to withdraw, are you? I... Did I do something to offend any of you?
Don't worry, you didn't.
No way.- Paige: Great... I'd never forgive myself if Eous was made to withdraw from the competition because of me...!
- Paige: Hmm... Anyway, the competition should be able to carry on as planned now. I'll let you know the theme for the finals later!
- Paige rushes off...
Discuss the current situation with Astra Yao[]
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Something doesn't feel right... I should talk to Astra.)
- (Talk to Astra Yao)
- Astra Yao: Phew, I was worried sick!
You sound happy, Astra.
Do you think it's a good idea?- Astra Yao: I don't know why Robin is quitting... But that's just luck!
- Astra Yao: I told you before, didn't I? Great luck is crucial to become the champion.
...- Astra Yao: What's on your mind? Does it bother you? But that's just how things are, so there's no use in dwelling on it. Better to look forward to the next match!
Astra, please check Hemiola.- Astra Yao: Huh...?
Quick, especially Joran's record!- Astra Yao: Ah, that record, actually...
- Astra seemed like she wanted to say something, but seeing your anxious expression, she decided to first take out Hemiola and carefully check the condition of the Joran's Legacy record...
- Astra Yao: Actually, the record on Hemiola isn't the master copy. It's a specially remixed version infused with sound-sensitive Ether, made specifically for Hemiola.
...Is this valuable?- Astra Yao: Well... if you ask me, it's quite valuable, I guess? While it's not the master copy, it's still one of a kind in the whole world.
- Astra Yao: But I've already checked it. The record is fine, safe and sound right here!
- Astra Yao: Are you saying that the collector is a bad guy?
I just want to confirm something.- Astra Yao: Hmm... He seems a bit mysterious. But my gut tells me that he's a good guy.
- Astra Yao: You heard it talk about Hemiola's worth, right?
Mhm...
Perhaps he's just a weirdo...- Astra Yao: Hmm... Why isn't Paige back yet? We still don't know the theme for the finals...
- As if responding to Astra's question, Paige rushes over...
- Paige: I'm here! The final theme is...
- Paige: Treasure of New Eridu!
This theme...
It's even more ambiguous than before...- Paige: What a weird theme. Aren't Bangboo the treasures of New Eridu?
- Paige: So, the contestants just have to stand on the stage?
...
That's just your opinion...- Paige: Not again! Was it so obvious?!
When did you ever try to hide it?- Paige: I—I'm going to go get some work done... Good luck with the finals!
- Paige smacks her own cheeks, then runs off... You really want to tell her that she just made her cheeks redder...
Discuss the final theme with Astra Yao[]
- (Talk to Astra Yao)
- Astra Yao: Well, it's a challenging theme fit for the competition. I don't know where to start...
So, even you're stumped.
I can't think of any good ideas right now.- Astra Yao: Yeah. The most precious things differs for everyone. Including "New Eridu" in the theme hardly helps...
- Astra Yao: What is "Treasure of New Eridu"? A thousand people might give you two thousand different answers!
Why two thousand?- Astra Yao: One for when they're in a good mood, and one when they're feeling down. One when they're working, one when they're on vacation!
- Astra Yao: Hmm... Nope, no point mulling here. Better go somewhere and try to get inspired.
- Astra Yao: Where should we go for this theme?
I have an idea.
I want to go to the place we first met.- Astra Yao: So... Lumina Square?
- Astra Yao: Hmm... If it's over there, then... I have an idea! Wait for me!
- Astra speaks with Evelyn, and returns to her private lounge...
After that, Evelyn picks me up in a car and we reach Lumina Square...
- Astra Yao: Looks good, right?
What's this?- Astra Yao: I wanted to wear this when I was shopping during my vacation!
- Astra Yao: When you said you wanted to come to Lumina Square, I suddenly... wanted to put it on!
It's very...- Astra Yao: Don't compliment me! If you compliment me now, how would I know if you're saying that because I asked you to or because you genuinely think I look good...?
But I just think it's pretty.- Astra Yao: Alright! Enough about me! We're here to look for inspiration for the finals!
- Astra Yao: But why do you think we'll find an answer about the Treasure of New Eridu here?
Intuition, just like you've taught me.
- Astra Yao: Huh? When did I teach you that? Don't pick up my singing skills too!
I doubt I can pick that up...- Astra Yao: Pfft, jokes aside, I think I figured it out on the way here... It's because we can see New Eridu on an ordinary day here, right?
We can observe many people here.
- Astra Yao: Is it because I said there are two thousand answers in a thousand people? So, today's goal is to see a thousand people?
No, that's not what I meant...- Astra Yao: Pfft... I get it, it's because... the "Treasure of New Eridu" really depends on what the people of New Eridu like. We can't just brainstorm by ourselves, right?
- Astra Yao: But I guess you know more about Lumina Square than I do.
- Astra Yao: After all, I rarely get the chance to shop here. I don't want to trouble Evelyn and everyone else...
- Astra Yao: But since it's for the competition, it should be fine. And you're with me...
- Astra Yao: Can you take me to the places you like?
Take a walk with Astra Yao in Lumina Square[]
- (Talk to Astra Yao if Quality Time is left)
- Astra Yao: Didn't you say you'd take me to your favorite place?
Let's go.
Wait a moment.
- (Approach the bridge's center)
- Astra Yao: This is your favorite place?
- Astra Yao: It does feel special...
- Astra Yao: Despite being on a main road, it's quiet here...
It's perfect for people-watching.
- Astra Yao: People-watching? Let me see...
- Astra Yao: Pfft, over there! That's the girl from the teamilk store, right? I know her! I once snuck over to buy a drink there! But I only had one sip before handing it to Eve...
- Astra Yao: She always struggled with the store's motto and was so troubled over whether she was fit for the job...
- Astra Yao: But she has a charming way of conveying her love of teamilk to others... It makes me really curious if drinking teamilk can make someone that overjoyed!
Drinking teamilk is already a joy.
I get it, that kind of atmosphere is really alluring.- Astra Yao: I couldn't stop myself from buying it...
It's very suitable for singing.
- Astra Yao: Huh? I—Is this place really suitable for singing? Are you sure?
- Astra Yao: The noise will drown everything out?
Yep, so it's perfect for those who are tone-deaf.
You can sing your heart out.- Astra Yao: Have you sung here or have you seen someone do it?
- Astra Yao: Someone must be overjoyed to be singing while crossing the boardwalk. I really want to hear such singing now...
- Astra Yao: It'll be very different from a stage performance, right?
- Astra Yao: I've noticed something... You take your life seriously, despite being the legendary Proxy. I thought such a big shot in the shadows would be more... aloof and unapproachable.
- Astra Yao: But you're actually pretty cute...
The legendary Proxy has to make a living too.
The most important thing in life is happiness.- Astra Yao: Pfft... If I could be more relaxed like you, Eve might worry less...
- Astra Yao: Please tell me more of these stories!
- (Approach Gravity Cinema)
- Astra Yao: So, we're really here!
I told you.
We'll be heading to the place where I first met you.- Astra Yao: ...That was so recent, but it already feels so nostalgic!
Remember that day in the movie theater...
Surrounded by your fans...- Astra Yao: Hmm... I've been reflecting on that. I was feeling down, but I shouldn't have left my fans behind.
- Astra Yao: They came to see me because they like me and wanted to celebrate for me...
- Astra Yao: ...
What are you thinking about?- Astra Yao: I'm thinking about how hard it is to make everyone happy.
- Astra Yao: Even though this is my job...
- Astra Yao: Sometimes, just sometimes, I'll wonder if I'm included in all these people that I'm making happy...
Since you want to bring joy to everyone...
I'll start by wishing for your happiness- Astra Yao: ...*sigh*
- Astra Yao: ...Yeah, I got it!
- Astra Yao: I'll make myself happy so that your wish will come true!
- (Approach the playground)
- Astra Yao: We really came here!
- Astra Yao: Sometimes, I sneak out here to have fun! I mean, kids won't recognize me!
- Astra Yao: Even if they do, they're easy to fool! Hehe!
Do you like playing with kids?
You're very gentle with kids.- Astra Yao: Yeah! When I was a child, everyone was really kind to me. They saved me...
- Astra Yao: When I was a kid, I almost died in the Hollow.
- Astra Yao: Although I'm sure there are plenty of people like me in New Eridu who have experienced the same thing... There aren't many in New Eridu who haven't experienced some kind of Hollow disaster.
- Astra Yao: That was also when I decided to keep singing.
Why so?- Astra Yao: Don't laugh. Back in the Hollow, I wanted to... wanted to give everyone hope, so I... I sang.
- Astra Yao: We were facing death...
- Astra Yao: But so many people still listened to me sing.
- Astra Yao: Whenever I think of the gazes I used to get when I performed, I want to keep on performing...
- Astra Yao: Even if death is lurking at the corner, I hope that my singing will be able to bring some cheer to everyone.
- Astra Yao: Ah, this is really depressing... I hope I didn't ruin your mood.
Not at all.
I know what you're trying to say.- Astra Yao: Yeah... I don't ever want to admit defeat.
- Astra Yao: I won't surrender to a cruel fate!
- Astra Yao: I used to imagine... I was a hero who defeated a horrifying demon lord! I had so many cool lines!
- Astra Yao: "You can kill me, but you can never kill my singing voice and smile!" Stuff like that.
- Astra Yao: On that day... I understood the real meaning of those words. The people who saved me... They taught me that.
I think I get it.- Astra Yao: Get what...?
I know what the Treasure of New Eridu is.- Astra Yao: Huh? Don't tell me it's my song...
Something similar.
The most valuable thing in New Eridu...
Is the right to never give up on happiness.- Astra Yao: Oh... You're saying...
- Astra Yao: Pfft... Don't you think you sound way too cool?
- Astra Yao: But I understand. You're right. The most special and valuable thing in New Eridu... is indeed happiness.
- Astra Yao: I love this answer! That's exactly what New Eridu is!
- Astra Yao: Will everyone... think the same way?
- You and Astra discuss further about how to manifest this idea in a design...
Then, you spend the rest of your time strolling by the river with Astra until sunset. Finally, you say goodbye to her.
You return to Starloop for the finals...
Talk to Eous[]
- (Talk to Eous)
- Eous: Ehn-noo, ah-nah? (I heard everything Miss Astra and (WiseWise /
BelleBelle) said... Is it really okay?)
No problem at all.
Eous, do you think we're right?- Eous: Ehn-ne... Nhe-ehn-na. (Um... I'm not as articulate as (WiseWise /
BelleBelle), but my logic core felt warm when you were talking... Carole says that feeling is... "Belief".) - Eous: Ehn-na... Ehn-na. (I think what you said is the reason I want to stay with you... something I "believe" in.)
- Eous: Ehn-ne. (So... it must be right.)
- After hearing Eous's thoughts, you look for Bagboo and hand the design to it...
- Bagboo: Ehn-ne! (What a beautiful design! Eous will look amazing in it!)
- Bagboo: Ehn-ne! (It's been sent to Enzo! Now we need to get some materials ready!)
- Bagboo: Ehn-ne! (To the Hollow, to the Hollow, time for the Hollow!)
Let's get going.
Just give me a sec...
- (Leave Dialogue)
Collect materials for crafting parts[]
- (Talk to Eous again, optional)
- Eous: Hmm... (I hope Belle and Wise can always stay happy...)
- (Talk to Bagboo if left)
- Bagboo: Ehn-ne! (To the Hollow, to the Hollow, time for the Hollow!)
Let's get going.
Just give me a sec...
- (Leave Dialogue)
- (During Combat)
- Bagboo: Ehn-nah! (It's a Golden Bangboo! Take it down! 10 materials per Bangboo!)
- Bagboo: Ehn-nah! (Platinum Bangboo! Take it down too! Only 20 materials per Bangboo!)
- Bagboo: Ehn-nah! (Golden Bangboo over there! Go go go! Catch it!)
- (After completing the stage)
- Bagboo: Ehn-ne! (I'm back! I'm here to help Enzo deliver items!)
Prepare for the upcoming "Ridu's Got Boo" competition[]
- (Talk to Eous)
- Eous: Nhe-na... (The finals are tomorrow...)
- Eous: Nha nhu... (Today's opponent is already so strong. What about tomorrow...)
Perhaps the toughest opponent has already been defeated.
Eous will be stronger tomorrow.- Eous: En-nah...
Don't worry too much, Eous.
Don't be nervous, Eous.- Eous: Ehn-ne? Ehn-ne... (Don't we have to? The most important match is tomorrow... (WiseWise /
BelleBelle) has been working hard for so many days just for this...)
It's okay, don't worry.
Winning isn't everything.
The experience is what counts.- Eous: ...
- Eous: Nhe-na, nhe-ne-nhe-na...
(But I think it matters. I don't want your hard work to end with second place. I want to make Miss Astra's wish come true. I...) - Eous: Enh! (I wanna win!)
- Eous: Ehn-ne. (And I think... I can win.)
- Eous: Nhe-na! (I'm going to give it my all... and win this competition!)
Eous...- Eous: Nah-nu... (...Was I too arrogant... What am I saying..?)
- Eous: Ehn-ne, ehn-ne! (L—Let's go practice! We can't slack yet.)
- Eous: En-nhu-ne. (Please help me again and practice with me, (WiseWise /
BelleBelle).) - Eous raises its hand and looks up.
The Bangboo's pixel eyes are round and shiny, but you can see a hint of anticipation in them... - Grab Eous's hand and head to the contestant lounge to practice moves.
- You rest after the practice.
After that, you prepare for the final competition.
