Shining Force Translations/Loreposting masterpost
About time I tried to organize all the rambling i do here.
Update: also organizing things even better on a website on Neocities, it’s still a work in progress but I hope to one day just replace this entire mess of links with it.
For now though, the mess of links below is the best we’ve got.
Shining Force:
partial translation of character bios from the Shining Force Encyclopedia (original scans here)
translations of the Shining Force Kouryaku no Tebiki Book (original scans here), starting from the character bios, then getting to Max’s diary, the epilogue interview with Nova, and the Country Guide.
translations of the Shining Force World Book (original scans here)
partial translations of the Shining Force Data Collection from Beep Megadrive magazine
Write up on the japanese pre release coverage of the game, including plenty of changed/removed content
Write up on unused content in the game seen through a ROM editor.
Some further investigation on unused content visible with walk through wall cheats: Khris’ scandalous secret line, unused NPCs in Alterone, and weirdness in chapter 7 and the debug mode (note: i have since then sadly confirmed that lines related to the unused event in Metapha are sadly removed in the JP version as well).
The unused content info is also summarized on TCRF as well.
that one post where i ramble a lot about the ending, including the japanese/english differences
All HQ quotes in the japanese and english versions
All special quotes from the ship HQ of Chapter 5, japanese and english versions
Bloodline of the Sacred Dragons novel translation [ongoing]
Keep reading

I wish Phantasy Star had a bigger impact in the JRPG space.
It forms a strong trinity with Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy. Dragon Quest is straight fantasy, with elements of the occult. Final Fantasy is more of a magitek setting. And Phantasy Star is Space Opera.
#please#at least pso more regularly gets recognition with its impact but even then#its a small reason why i made this blog tho i cant keep up with it very much as time goes on haha

Happy 30th anniversary to Phantasy Star IV! I wanted to make this tribute piece to the original series while parodying Phantasy Star Online's cover art. Special call out to Yoshibon, whose character designs are some of my favorites!

Here’s another unfinished Shining Force fanart. Everyone’s favorite bad boy, Kane. I haven’t drawn much this year. I’m such a slacker.

Nei from Phantasy Star 2! She’s really cute and it’d be a shame if anything bad happened to her.
