Full Script: Kage-Maru's Quotes

Kage-Maru’s quotes. I wonder if he says the same things to his mahjong opponents…

Literal Translations -for interest, but left untranslated in the quotes below

影丸 –Kage-Maru –Perfect Shadow (a pseudonym)
葉隠 –Hagakure –Hidden-Leaf
琉 –Ryū –the Way/Path/Style
柔術-Jūjutsu –the Gentle Art
南無 –Namu -Amen

These quotes are translated in context (a fight), because literal translations from Japanese to English can, at times, just sound weird. Therefore, I’ve taken a little artistic license with some…

These quotes are taken from 1P in Arcade Mode, as this mode contains the Countdown Screen/Continue quotes. Special item pose quotes are also included.
