Home Version Course, if I remember correctly, is the only one yet to be unlocked. I'm gonna guess that's Ie Senyou.

wow, playing through the game, that doesn't seem like a whole lot of songs, but actually going through the list takes a long time...

I guess the reason why the mix feels so small is because the majority of the songs are older ones (but there is a good number of songs that are new, don't get me wrong...)

Eh... I'll go back and play all the classics to keep me occupied...

but, what I don't get is why they didn't save all the tough oni courses for the last unlock? and thats a large number of unlocks to get in one sitting... they'll probably do another one of those "unlock 31" deals as in max2.

It's called Aoi Shoudou because the title is written in friggin' Japanese.

All the other songs in that list have English titles. That one has a Japanese title.

Y'know "Matsuri Japan"? "Mikeneko Rock"? They're written that way because the title is written in mixed Japanese and English characters.

Aoi Shoudou is just called "Aoi Shoudou," in Japanese characters. Why should we call it "Blue Impulse" when we call those other songs "Mikeneko Rock" and "Matsuri Japan"?

Like, why do we call Daikenkai Daikenkai instead of "Big Opinion" or whatever it is?

So what exactly is ther left to unlock? I know Sakura, the survivor song series, legend of max, and dance dance revolution, as well as maybe another nonstop or oni, but do you think they will make the special modifiers available for normal play, such as .25x or .5x, as well as reverse boost or the fuwa fuwa crap i read about. BTW I dont see myself using fuwa fuwa at all but it would be funny to scare newbies by playing something easy with it on (.5 ,reverse, sudden, reverse boost, fuwa fuwa, flat, shuffle or whatever)

Concerning Aoi Shoudou=Blue Impulse/Youthful Urges, Daikenkai=Serious Opinion, whatever. Here's why we're calling it Aoi Shoudou and not Blue Impulse. It's SPELLED SO on the list of songs scrolling by after a game ends. The only reason Aaron has it listed as Blue Impulse (for that matters, Green Impulse until some of us corrected him

) is because his was one of the premiere sources of info and he wanted it to be accessible to everyone...

...anyways, as for what's left to unlock, we're really hoping for the mods, but it's all up to speculation at the moment -_-

It'd make sense if the very last unlock code comes out on the same week MAX2 for PS2 comes out in Japan. (4th week of April, 5 weeks from now.)

I would further more like to expand on the "Aoi Shoudou" thing. Those who know kanji know that the "Aoi" isnt the kanji for "blue" it is the subkanji for "young" or "youth" and Shoudou can mean "impulse" or a "strong urge" so take that into consideration too ^_~

I remember when 8th Style songs were first being revealed, it was called "Youthful Urges," and then slowly sites started citing it as "Blue Impulse" and then finally some sites called it, "Blue Impulse ~Youthful Urges~."

Maybe most call it Blue Impulse 'cause "Blue Impulse" sounds cooler? Youthful Urges just sounds nas-tay.

CCC · Posted: Fri Mar 21, 2003 5:43 am Post subject:

I think the reason "Blue" was used was because, at least in Chinese, one word meaning of youthful has its roots from the blue/greenish color's association with youthful nature. Thus Blue Impulse. It does sound nicer than Youthful Urges
