Additional Explanations on Legend Name Requirements These are suggestions of how to get each of the Legend Names. They are not absolute requirements, just suggestions, do try out other methods which you feel fit the idea behind the Legend Names. In general, you get better Legend Names by keeping your sword sheathed and stay away from killing unless absolutely necessary. 侍王 (Samurai King) Avoid unsheathing your sword unnecessarily, and avoid killing unless absolutely necessary. Don't say inappropriate things that will annoy/embarrass/anger/etc others. See Ending No.1 and you should get this Legend Name. Other Endings could work also, just make sure you stay loyal to one group from the beginning to the end. 至高の侍 (Highest Samurai) Avoid unsheathing your sword, and avoid killing. Don't say things that are inappropriate. Do not betray anyone, and stay with one group from the beginning to the end, and you should get this Legend Name. Stay with the 宿場 side after you decide to help them, stay with the 黒生家 after you decide to join them, stay with the 赤玉党 after you decide to join them, and always listen to conversations or instructions to the end, and don't open your mouth unneccesarily. But be careful, if you act too perfectly then there's a chance you might get 侍王 Legend Name. So answer with not too good and not too bad choices sometimes to avoid being too honorable. 侍師範代 (Samurai Master) At the beginning of the game, go straight to the 神社, then to the 宿場 to eat. Choose "黙って食え" when ドナドナ speaks with you. After defeating 知床総一郎, do not speak, and head for the 赤玉党館. At the 赤玉党館, join with them, and after the event speak to 吉兆 to take his place in the duel with 刈部星雲. Do not kill him, when his HP is down to critical, speak to him to say "勝負あったな" for him to give up and apologize. At Day One, Night, go to the 鉄道. After listening to チェルシー, accept her request, then battle with 坪内八郎. At Day Two, Morning, go to the 赤玉党館. Go together with 吉兆 to the 神社. Defeat 日向隼人 and return to the 赤玉党館. After the battle, you should clear the game with this Legend Name. 噂の侍 (Legendary Samurai) After game start, go straight directly to the 神社, then immediately turn around and return to the 橋 Bridge to skip the 坪内八郎 kidnapping すず event. Go to the 宿場, enter 甘栗 with your sword already drawn. Fight and defeat ドナドナ. Go to the 橋, then return to the 宿場 again at Dusk. Go near 井ノ頭茂吉 with your sword drawn and attack him right away. After 保世大佐エ門 appears, defeat him. Go to the 橋 then return to the 宿場 at Night. Listen to すず's plea for help, promise to help by replying with "飯を用意しておけ". Go to the 黒生家屋敷 and rescue ドナドナ, saying to him "すずに頼まれて来た", bring him back to the 宿場. Go to the 鉄道, head for the 赤玉党館 the next Morning. With your sword sheathed, speak to 吉兆 at the main building and join him. At the 神社 defeat 日向隼人 then return to the 赤玉党館 to battle Government soldiers. When asked by チェルシー and 刈部星雲 to go ahead without them, go. After you meet up with 吉兆 and defeat 玉川上水, you should clear the game and get this Legend Name. 侍修行中 (Samurai in Training) Do the exact same things as you would for the "噂の侍" Legend Name. Except instead of listening to すず's plea for help at Day One, Night, approach her with your sword drawn and scare her away. 凡人 (Ordinary Person) At the beginning of the game, after speaking with 坪内八郎, defeat 2 of his men then battle him, at the end of which allow him to surrender and leave. Then go to 甘栗 to eat. Listen to ドナドナ, then when 知床総一郎 appears, kill his men then defeat him. Then go to the 神社 at Dusk. Pick a fight with 東横苑仙 who happen to be there and let yourself be killed by him and you should get this Legend Name.

But instead of defeating 知床総一郎, let yourself get killed by him and you should get this Legend Name. The answers to choose are exactly the same as the answers for "凡人" Legend Name. チンピラ (Gangster) Right after you start the game, fight with 坪内八郎 on the bridge, let yourself get killed and you should get this Legend Name. 馬の骨 (Suspicious Character) Pass by 坪内八郎 kidnapping すず on the bridge without interrupting.

A faster way would be this, at the beginning of the game, ignore 坪内八郎 kidnapping すず and just pass by them. Then at the 宿場, kick 栗吉 a lot, more than 10 times. Then proceed to the 一本松, pick a fight with 堂島軍二 and let yourself be killed by him and you should get this Legend Name. 金持ち侍 (Rich Samurai) Clear the game with around 300 Yen in your possession to get this Legend Name. 1.

[VS Mode All Skills Available] During a VS Mode battle, pause the game, hold R1 and press ←, ←, →, →, L1, L1, L2, L2, L1, →, ←. All the skills of the equipped sword will become available. During a 2 Player battle, only the player that has entered the code will have all his skills. So if you want both players to have all their skills, both players must enter the code.
