Double Dragon Advance character profiles

Post by Jonny2x4 »

I remember back when I translated Muneki Ebinuma's commentary on Double Dragon Advance, I asked Game Kommander to scan the character profiles from the Japanese version's manual. I completely forgot about it until recently, so I took the liberty of translating them and posting them here. The American manual only has Billy's and Jimmy's profiles.

For some reason, not all the enemies are covered in the Japanese manual either. The two Chin Taimei-esque enemies are not listed, and neither are the Five Emperors.

The Heroes
Billy Lee - The younger of the Lee brothers, Billy is a martial artist with a strong heart and body. He has learned numerous styles of martial arts since he was a child, and with his brother Jimmy, he founded Sou-Setsu-Ken at the age of 20. He is usually calm and quiet, only his brother Jimmy is capable of stopping him.

Jimmy Lee - The older of the Lee brothers, Jimmy is high-spirited and possesses strength beyond compare. He co-founded Sou-Setsu-Ken with his younger brother Billy, and was the instructor at their dojo prior to the war. Rumored to even surpass Billy in martial arts skill, Jimmy likes spending his time studying Eastern philosophy.

He now roams the streets of the underworld as a member of a criminal organization. Usually wears an armored helmet mask to conceal his plain face.

Awesome stuff, thanks for translating and posting!

I never thought Abobo would be the type to like singing and dancing, but there you go!
Burnov's data seems to be based on his Neo Geo incarnation.
I think Anderson was named after the boss of the Gameboy DD II.

Again, thanks!

I think I might rewrite some of the older character description pages in the future if I get the time. Reading some of them now, I made a couple of mistakes here and there. Not to mention I have stumbled onto a couple of Japanese pamphlet guides to the first two Famicom games, which includes move lists for all the enemies and their damage.
