Happy Birthday Cutscenes
# Link Text
1

Congratulations, (Captain).
Today is the day you were born. And what an auspicious day it is.
As such, it is an important day for all of us as well. Thank you for being with us, (Captain).
My spin blade life only grows larger with every moment I spend with you. That is what my spins tell me.
I made the right decision joining this crew!
Life is whatever art you make of it.
So please let me help you make your life even more artistic. My spin blade wouldn't have it any other way.

2

Happy birthday, (Captain)! What an auspicious occasion!
Why are you embarrassed? Everyone's gathered today to celebrate your birth.
Humph. Don't be so modest. You've done more than your fair share for the crew.
It's only proper everyone returns the favor by celebrating your big day with gusto.
Haha. And I plan on partying harder than anyone.
If I hadn't come with you, I wouldn't have been able to spread the glory of the spin blade across the skies.
So thank you. And one more thing...
I got you this custom-made spin blade as a gift.

3

(Captain), happy birthday!
I've been able to spread my spin blade to so many new lands thanks to you.
I can't thank you enough for that.
That's why your birthday is the perfect occasion for me to show my appreciation.
You'd better get back to the party soon. Everyone's waiting for you.
I have a new move I'm gonna show later! I've been practicing hard just to wow everyone on this special day!
Today marks the starting point of a new year for you, (Captain). Here's hoping you have a good spin of it.

4

(Captain), today's your birthday, right?
Man, how many years have we traveled together? I've learned so much from you.
But the most important thing you taught me is perseverance. The will to keep on spinning no matter what stands in your way.
The sun will always rise tomorrow because the world doesn't stop turning... So if you want to light your own way, you best never stop moving.
Our journey together has given me power. The power to have spin blades take the skies by storm.
If my dream really comes true, you'll be the one who helped make it happen.
I'm glad we met. Happy birthday, (Captain).

5

(Captain), come watch this spin blade.
That look like a normal spin to you? Think just anyone could pull this stunt?
Well, look again. This little ballerina's been turning for a while—without a single wobble. Takes finesse to reach this level of perfection.
I'd estimate that, as long as no one touches it, this spin blade will go on whirling for half a year.
Life is full of things that are harder than they look. Awesome triumphs you struggle for that no one else can understand.
Sucks, doesn't it? To not have your work properly appreciated.
But you can't let that get you down. 'Cause if you let other people decide the value of your life... Well, then it's all gonna seem meaningless.
But if you can find your own purpose and stay your course...
That's when life is worth living. So... Where do you find meaning, (Captain)?
I know it feels like I'm lecturing you, but... Really, I'm just wishing you well.
Happy birthday, (Captain). And don't worry. I'm gonna be right here watching you blow the world away for years to come.

Happy New Year Cutscenes

1

Happy New Year! I can't believe a whole new year has already arrived.
Look at this spin blade. It's spinning even more than usual.
We've got to do something special to celebrate the new year. Any ideas?
I've got it! We can spin tops like I've heard of in stories!
(Captain), today's the day we spin all the tops!

2

Happy New Year, (Captain)! We've spun by one more year, huh? Don't spin out now!
Hm? This? I've attached a thread to my spin blade.
You don't know about kites? Lots of people play with them for New Year's.
Alas, when the wind is blowing this strongly, a regular kite would just spin ceaselessly, without gaining any height.
Kites just aren't made to handle that kind of rotation.
So I had a thought: If you fly something that was born to spin, you'd have no problems, right?
That's why I've turned this spin blade into a kite! The possibilities of the spin blade are endless!

3

Happy New Year, (Captain). Another year has begun to spin.
Have you ever heard of a New Year's game called battledore and shuttlecock?
You use a wooden implement known as a battledore to bat around a feathered ball called a shuttlecock.
I tried using a spin blade in place of the shuttlecock. It proved difficult.
The blade would spin off in an unexpected direction whenever struck.
As much confidence as I have in controlling it with my fingers...
Using a battledore is a different story. The mysteries of the spin blade are many.
Anyhow, would you care to accompany me for some battledore and spin blade practice, (Captain)?

4

Well, (Captain)? It's New Year's. What say we bring out the mochi stack?
I've got one right here. But instead of an orange, it's got a spin blade for a topper.
You want to know why I replaced the orange? Of course I have a reason.
We've all been there. It's time to slice the mochi, but you can't get it to crack.
That's where spin blades come in. Your typical kitchen knife will slide right off, but this revolving beauty can cut through anything.
You could also set the spin blade on top of the mochi and let it spin. This thing can keep going for weeks.
Treat it like fortune telling. The longer it whirls, the better luck you'll have. With spin blades, the possibilities are endless.
And I wish you a year just like that—filled with infinite possibility and zero limits!

5

Happy New Year, (Captain). Another 365-day revolution set in motion. Try not to get spun off.
Wha? Forgot to do your year-end cleaning, huh? That explains the glum face.
Well, I'm 'boutta flip that frown upside down! With an epic new invention... Featuring spin blades!
No, no, no. I swear this is gold. So first, you take your average spin blade, found lying around every household.
Then you pop that thing on the floor and let it rip. It whirls itself to every corner of the room, collecting dust and lint, before returning to where it started.
Meanwhile, you can be out hanging with friends, shopping for groceries, whatever. No need to babysit this bad boy.
By the time you're back, the whole place is spotless. Every speck of dust swept up by whirlwinds of cleanliness!
That's the Vacuuma-Blade 300, baby!
I was thinking 'bout ways to get spin blades more popular this year, when I realized: what's the one thing everyone's gotta do? Chores!
I mean, it ain't gonna be easy putting this plan into action. Gotta figure out how to get the blades to revolve so they suck up dust instead of just swirling it around the room.
But I'm not giving up, got it? I'm gonna make spin blades an indispensable part of every household!
Well, those dust bunnies aren't getting any smaller. What say we head to your cabin and take the Vacuuma-Blade for a whirl?

Valentine's Day Cutscenes
# Link Text
1

Thanks for helping me practice spinning my blade, (Captain).
Hm?
Oh, right! Today's Valentine's Day, isn't it?
Mmm! This thick, sweet chocolate is just melting in my mouth.
The taste is coursing through my whole body, enveloping me in a calming warmth. It's almost a kind of art...
I may be able to learn to spin a new way with this. (Captain), this is all thanks to you.

2

Hm? What's the matter, (Captain)?
I'm just coming back from my spin practice. I went a little hard today, so I'm feeling the burn.
Huh? This chocolate for me? Oh, that's right. Today's Valentine's Day. Mind if I try it?
Mmm! The sensual sweetness is spreading throughout my weary body!
And this smooth texture—
Eureka! This is what I've been missing! This smoothness!
Hehe. That's the (Captain) I know. You've spun my inspiration into overdrive.
I can't sit around though! I've gotta get back to training!
Thanks for the delicious chocolate! See you later!

3

Urgh, my spin technique is off the mark today! How could this be happening!
Wait, I know. I'm missing something.
Give it to me, (Captain)... You know what I mean. I've gotta have it!
Bingo! Valentine's chocolate!
Mm... What an artful taste!
Hahah. Watch my spin blade go and go.
Thanks for the boost, (Captain). I couldn't have done it without your chocolate.
You can be such a tease...
But I am grateful nonetheless. Thank you for the delicious chocolate.

4

Hey, (Captain)... Do I really look that upset?
It's just one of those days, you know... Where nothing spins my way...
Think you can take pity on a poor soul and bless him with chocolate?
Really? Then don't mind if I do!
Mm... Yes, this sweetness! It's exactly what I needed.
Heh. Yeah, it was pretty obviously an act, wasn't it?
But I mean it when I say your chocolates have taken over me. I'm already looking forward to next year's.

5

(Captain), that what I think it is? AKA, Valentine's chocolates for yours truly.
Thanks. Actually, I also got a surprise for you this year...
More chocolates! Bon appetit!
I ground these beauties up using spin blades, melted them in a double boiler over a fire lit by spin blades, and cooled them using—you guessed it—spin blades.
What you hold in your hands, I dub... Chocolat a la Spin Blade!
Look at those proportions, that lustrous finish. None of that would've been possible without spin blades.
So. How 'bout we savor our Valentine's presents together? With spin blades in hand, of course.

White Day Cutscenes

1

Here you go. This is your White Day present.
Ha... That face... I know just what you're thinking. You suspect I gave you a spin blade, right?
But... I've got a surprise for you. Go ahead and open it.
Haha. Well? Does this strawberry cake look like a spin blade to you?
It's a beautiful cake, right? The way the frosting was applied is simply a work of art.
Did you know that when you apply cream to a cake, you spin it?
The movement of a spin blade even has applications in cake decorating.
All right. Have at it! Enjoy the satisfaction of a delicacy made with the careful spinning of the gods.

2

Ah, there you are. I've been looking everywhere for you, (Captain).
Happy White Day! I got you something to thank you for the Valentine's Day gift! It's a cream-filled cake!
Huh? Looks like you were expecting a spin blade.
Hehe. Fear not.
I used a spin blade to whip the cream.
Go ahead and try it! You'll be tasting just one of the revolutionary applications of the spin blade!

3

(Captain), you have a minute?
Happy White Day! These goodies are for you!
Go on, open up the box... Hahah, how do you like the spin blade?
But it's no ordinary spin blade. That one's made of candy.
Spin blade candy... How's that for innovation? It spins just like the real thing too.
Try spinning it with your tongue as you gobble it up.
The more rotations you can get, the more the mellow flavor spreads throughout your mouth.
It's the perfect melding of spins and sweets!

4

(Captain), this is for you.
It's a bag of my homemade marshmallows. Happy White Day.
To get that fluffy texture, it's all about how you mix the ingredients.
Spin blades gave me this smooth, steady whirl that resulted in the masterpiece you're holding there.
By the way, every marshmallow's got some chocolate or jam inside, and they're all different flavors. A fun surprise in every bite.
Heh. I can't wait to see your reaction!

5

Hey, (Captain). I made you a little something to thank you for Valentine's but...
Yeah, they're a mess, aren't they? My bad...
I was trying to bake macarons shaped like spin blades, but they just wouldn't puff right.
I mean, the prep work was easy—did it all with spin blades, baby—but by the time they were finished baking, all the macarons came out round.
No, stop. I don't need your pity. I know, okay? I know that deep down in your soul, you're hungering for spin blade-shaped macarons.
Spin blades are the ideal of beauty. But I... I wasn't able to ascend to their level.
Thanks. I'd have never realized my shortcomings if it weren't for you.
Well, I guess you can eat those boring normal macarons. But I want you to remember...
One day, I'm gonna make spin blade-shaped macarons. And when that time comes, I want you to taste them and tell me how superior they are.

Trick or Treat Cutscenes

1

I'm putting too much energy into spinning my blade, aren't I?
Why, you ask? It's my trick of course.
I'm not trying to put a spin on things. I'm just having fun. It's important for any artist to enjoy themselves.
I call it trick-or-spin!
In other words, no matter what you choose, I get to pull a prank. How about I start a typhoon?
Haha. I'm just kidding about the typhoon.
But I could use the wind to do other things...

2

Trick or spin!
Today is Halloween. I'm going to devote all my time today to pulling pranks.
Sounds like the perfect way to teach people the glory of spin blades, doesn't it?
I spent several sleepless nights just plotting the perfect pranks.
Which reminds me, (Captain). You're my first target.
Hey now! Where do you think you're going? You can't escape from the winds my spin blades dish out.
Hehe. Now, prepare yourself for the greatest prank ever!

3

Hey, (Captain). Is that your Halloween costume? Looks good on you.
You're going trick-or-treating in that, huh?
As for me, I'll be trick-or-spinning as usual!
I've been thinking of a good trick to play, and I've made up my mind.
I'll be using my spin blade to whip the treats in your basket into a tornado.
Hah-hah! I'll be getting my treats, while also getting to play a trick!
Trying to get away from me this year too? How pointless. There's no escape from my spin blade.

4

Hey, (Captain). Mind giving me a hand?
I'm trying to tie candy onto these spin blades, but there's too many. At this rate, I'm not going to finish in time.
I'm planning to release them all into the air at once, and then the kids'll catch them. Be like a gift from above.
It's a twofer—candy and spin blades. Not a bad surprise, right?
If we're going to be dealing in tricks, might as well be the kind that sparks some joy.
Heh. Guess the theme for this year isn't "trick-or-spin." It's "trick-and-spin!"

5

Spinnah's Voice: Trick or Spin! It's Halloween, yo!
Time to stir up the town with some crazy spin blade tricks!
Huh? What's that, (Captain)? You don't know where I am?
Spinnah: Boo. Over here.
Haha! Gotcha! Don't get angry, okay? All part of the spooky Halloween spirit.
And lemme tell you, there's more where that came from. The prank-potential of spin blades is infinite!
By the time I'm done, today's not gonna be known as Halloween anymore. It's gonna be known as the Spin Blade Fright Fest!
Come on! Let's head into town! I'm gonna make it rain candy with the power of spin blades!

Happy Holidays Cutscenes

1

It's snowing! These crystalized shapes really are beautiful.
(Captain), do you know why the snow forms such beautiful crystallizations?
Haha. You don't know?
They say that the snow spins in the clouds as it falls.
You already know what I'm trying to say, right?
That's right. Beauty is formed within the spin.
That is to say, this holiest of nights is when spins are most perfect. That is what the snow teaches us.

2

Tonight's a festive night, huh? I'm glad everyone's enjoying themselves. Even the streets are all gussied up.
But there's something missing. Any guesses as to what it is, (Captain)?
That's right. Snow.
Snow goes perfect with this season, don't you think? Doesn't look like any's gonna fall this year though.
Well, luckily for us, I have a solution: everyone's favorite, the spin blade.
By spinning this baby, I can send some wind up to the sky...
The wind will scatter the bag of paper snow I attached to the hull of the airship.
Hah! Check it out! The snow is starting to cover the streets!
Hehe. You've witnessed yet another joy that spin blades can bring into our lives.
Here, take one as a present!

3

Oh, (Captain). What are you doing up at this hour?
Some sound woke you up? Sorry about that.
I'm getting ready to head into town. I'll be placing spin blades by the windowsills of children's bedrooms.
It is my duty as messenger of spin blades to spread word of them on this holy night.
I can already picture the surprised looks of children all over as they open their windowsills in the morning.
Especially since the ones I'll be leaving them are forged from gold bricks.
Well, I'm off now!

4

Hey, (Captain). Shaping up to be a festive night, isn't it?
The spin blade's also here with a blessing for everyone out celebrating.
Huh? You don't know what I mean? Look up.
Spinnah points to the top of a great evergreen, where a spin blade glistens in place of a star.
Hah. Now you see. That, my friend, is a special spin blade.
I found a bunch of those Sunlight Stone things, just left to gather dust in the storeroom.
Felt like a waste, so I ground some up and dusted the spin blade with them.
What do you think? The stuff glitters like magic! Perfect tree topper, in my opinion.
I only hope I can spread spin blades throughout the skies, so everyone can bathe in that light...
And what better star for me to wish on than the one twinkling on that tree right there? Be real nice if you also wished for the same thing.

5

Lights, music, and smiles everywhere. Now this is what I call the holidays.
I got a present for you, (Captain). A special gift for a special night.
It's a spin blade that flashes all the colors of the rainbow. Really gets you in that festive mood. Come on. Give it a whirl.
See? Like a little lightshow on the tips of your fingers. Not another thing like it in the skies.
Found a bunch of multi-colored crystals in the ship's storeroom. Ground them all up to make these babies.
Huh? You were saving them up for New Year's celebrations? Uhh...
Haha! I got it! That was my New Year's money, wasn't it?
Thanks, (Captain). I mighta jumped the gun a bit, but you got me just what I needed.
Bet the crystals are thanking you too. What's better than being reborn as a spin blade, right?

Fate Episodes

Spoiler Alert!

High-Speed Spinnah

(Captain) and company happen upon an island where the spin blade culture is still very much alive. They learn from a boy that the island's megacorporation is using evil spin blades to take over the world. Not intent on letting this happen, the crew decides to follow him to a megacorp-sponsored party.



The spin blade.
A toy that once took the world by storm but is now nothing more than a forgotten relic of the past.
A young man who swears by the beauty and artistic merit of spin blades travels with the crew, hoping to bring the toys into the limelight once more.
His name is Spinnah. This is his story.
Spinnah: This is incredible!
While the crew is docked on an island for a pit stop, Spinnah watches in wonder at the townspeople.
Vyrn: Wow, who woulda thought a place like this exists!
Lyria: Yeah, what an amazing coincidence!
Rackam: Heheh... This sure brings back memories.
Shortly after making landfall, they notice the town's residents casually fidgeting away with their spin blades.
It turns out a megacorporation operating on this island was one of the world's largest manufacturers of spin blades back in the day.
Rackam: I guess when you have the maker's HQ right around the corner, the culture's that much more likely to survive.
Spinnah: This may as well be paradise. I can feel their passion for the spin blade...
Vyrn: You think so? I dunno if I'd call that "passionate"... Looks to me like they're just keeping their hands busy.
Spinnah: What a breathtaking sight... I'm reminded of the days when spin blades were all the craze.
Vyrn: You're not hearin' me, are ya, Fidget Fingers...
Lyria: Ahaha... It's like he's in his own world.
Rackam: This does remind me of when spin blades first came out... Actually, I'd say they were even more popular back then.
Lyria: Oh, really? I had no idea.
Spinnah: Hahah! It's a good thing I decided to travel the world. You have my thanks, (Captain).
As the captain smiles back in response, a strident voice can be heard.
???: Shut your damn trap, you dumb kid!
Boy: Let go of me! I know everything! I know what you guys are planning for the island!
The boorish man has the child by the neck as they trade quips.
Lyria: Oh no! We need to break up the fight, (Captain)!
Spinnah: Hey, relax. It might be more convincing if we use this island's conventions to solve the problem.
Boy: Darn it! I'm not losing to a big oaf like you!
Big Guy: Wahaha! You talk big for a little runt. I'll teach you not to mess with grown-ups!
As he holds up the boy, what seems like a faint shadow grazes his thick arms.
Big Guy: Rgh! The heck was that?
Boy: Ah! A spin blade...
Freed from the man's grasp, the boy continues chasing the shadow of the flying object with his eyes.
With a grand sweeping motion, it settles in Spinnah's hand.
Spinnah: You might wanna cut that out, big guy. It's not a pretty sight.
Though spin blades are simple toys to most, real pros like Spinnah are able to use them as weapons.
Big Guy: Tch... Haven't seen you before. You a new spin blader?
Spinnah: Oho... You sound like a spinner yourself.
Big Guy: Hah! You got that right! There's not a person on the island who doesn't love spinning these things!
The man whips out one of his own and flicks it with his fingers.
Big Guy: Hyahaa! You've gotta do it too! I'm callin' for a spin blade battle!
Spinnah: You don't get to tell me when to spin. Every rotation is an expression of freedom and must come from within.
Big Guy: Cocky son of a gun... Guess I get to go first then! Hraaah!
The man readies his throwing arm.
Big Guy: Urgh!
The powerful rotations of the spin blade thrown by Spinnah do great damage to the man, hitting him multiple times.
Spinnah: I wasn't going to wait all day, so I went ahead and threw mine. Quite the slowpoke, aren't you?
Big Guy: Tch... I'll get you back for this!
Boy: That was amazing, mister! I've never seen a spin blade go that fast!
Spinnah: Heheh. He was just too slow.
Vyrn: What were you two fightin' about anyway? You mentioned something about plans for the island?
Rackam: I was wondering the same thing. We're new here. Care to fill us in?
Boy: Uh, sure... To start with, that guy just now was a small fry. He's one of the spin blade hunters hired by the megacorp.
Spinnah: Hunters? When you say megacorp, are you referring to the one that made those spin blades?
Boy: Mm-hm. They get their goons to mug us kids for our spin blades.
Rackam: Wow, that's pretty messed up. What do they want with the things anyway?
Boy: It's the megacorp's way of creating demand for the new generation of spin blades that's currently in production.
Boy: I heard with my own two ears that they'll be handing out evil spin blades at the holiday party!
Lyria: Um... What's an evil spin blade?
It began when the boy won a spin blade tournament sponsored by the megacorp.
CEO: Hehe... Is the evil spin blade complete yet?
Scientist: Yes, you'll be able to control anyone who uses it.
CEO: Splendid! Now I just have to hold a holiday party and hand one out to everybody who comes.
Scientist: Yes, that would be perfect. It'll be our first step to world domination.
CEO: Mwahaha! Indeed, it would! I'll have an infinite spin blade army under my control!
Boy: (Oh no!)
Rackam: World domination? Using those evil spin blade thingies?
Spinnah: This is a serious matter if true. How exactly is their plan going to work?
Boy: Well, according to what I heard...
The pattern that arises from the evil spin blade's rotation combined with its sound has a hypnotic effect on the user.
Those hypnotized become no different from marionettes, and fall under the full control of the megacorp.
The corporation will then dispatch them as members of the spin blade army to all corners of the world.
Spinnah: Okay, I get the gist of it.
Spinnah: The megacorp distributes evil spin blades, and the populace gets hypnotized. The process is repeated ad infinitum.
Spinnah: By giving out evil spin blades at every stop they make across the skies, they continue bolstering the size of their army.
Rackam: So the hypnotized populace help spread the hypnosis, eh... Now I get the infinite army part...
Boy: I went ahead and told all my friends as soon as I overheard that! But none of them would believe me...
Rackam: Not much of a surprise there. Almost sounds like something out of a fairy tale.
Boy: Rgh... Everyone'll be attending the party tomorrow to get their hands on a new spin blade...
Boy: I tried explaining that those particular handouts are illegal, but...
(Captain) and company shiver at the scenario painted by the distressed boy.
Vyrn: Seems like they could apply their hypnosis gimmick with anything though. Why even bother with toys—
Spinnah: I propose we join the party. What do you say, (Captain)?
Rackam: Agreed. You cool with this, (Captain)?
Not intent on letting anyone control the world, the captain nods affirmatively.
Lyria: Let's go! We have to stop their evil plan!
Boy: Thanks, guys! I really want to save everyone!
Vyrn: (Hm? Maybe I spoke up at a bad time?)
Vyrn: So like I was saying, why do they need to use toys for world domina—
Rackam: So what's our next move after getting to the venue? Expose the megacorp's plans in front of everyone?
  1. That could be risky.

Choose: That could be risky.
Spinnah: Agreed. The enemy may gain the upper hand if we're not cautious.
Rackam: True... We don't even know how big their operation is. It's best we play it safe at first.
Vyrn: Er... So what do toys have to do with—
Boy: All righty! Let's meet up again here tomorrow! I'll lead you to the party grounds!
Rackam: Sounds good to me! We'll be countin' on ya, kiddo!
Spinnah: To defile the beauty of a spin blade is unforgivable. They'll get what's coming to them.
Vyrn: Right... (Am I the only one going cuckoo over how wacky this situation is?)
And so the crew goes on to thwart the evil megacorp's plans for world domination.
At the site of the party, (Captain) and company will fall into the megacorp's trap and find themselves locked in cages!
Spinnah will be the only one to elude capture and must confront the enemy alone!
But their numbers are too great, their spin blade attacks too merciless!
You can do it, Spinnah! Defeat the menace that threatens world peace and save your friends!
This journey across the skies ends here if you lose!
Coming up next: The End of Spinnah!
See you next spin!

The End of Spinnah

The crew makes it to the party grounds after taking out a few megacorp thugs. They fall for a trap—steel bars rising up from the ground that lock them in. Spinnah, however, is able to elude the trap and challenges the megacorp CEO to battle.



The crew will be making their way toward the megacorp responsible for creating the evil spin blades that hypnotize their wielders.
The enemy plans on handing one out to every attendee at the holiday party.
It is up to (Captain) and company to stop them before they can carry out their nefarious plan.
Lyria: Wow! You're looking so fashionable today, Spinnah!
Spinnah: Blending in's part of the game. After all, it looks like I'll have a big role to play today.
Vyrn: If we're going up against spin bladers, there's no one better than Fidget Fingers to have on our side!
Spinnah: Well said, Vyrn.
Vyrn: Anyhoo, there's something I've been meaning to ask. Why are toys of all things being used for world domina—
Rackam: All right, time to go! The kid's waiting for us!
Lyria: Yeah! We should be careful on the way there too!
Vyrn: Sigh... (Lost my chance to ask again...)
The crew meets up with the boy, who takes them to the party venue.
Rackam: Why are there so many shady guys in the area? They're twirling their spin blades too.
One among the ruffians chuckles when he spots the crew.
Ruffian: Heh, you travelers best get outta the way! The town's about to become a battlefield!
Boy: Wh-what's that supposed to mean! What are you going to do to the town!
Ruffian: Damn nosy brat. Like I'd tell you a thing. Bugger off!
Boy: This is my town, and I won't let you ruin it!
The boy runs up to the ruffian and kicks him in the shin.
Ruffian: Screw you, kid! My spin blade's gonna leave a mark in ya!
Spinnah: You might wanna take it easy.
Ruffian: Brgwaah!
Boy: Heheh. You're really something else, mister!
Spinnah: And you should think before you act. Especially if you want to save your friends.
Boy: Sorry... I just couldn't stand the thought of them messing up my town...
Rackam: To be fair, I know how you feel, kid. Well, lead the way.
Before long the crew arrives at the party venue.
Rackam: If they get everyone here under their control, the town's as good as done for.
Spinnah: So where are the megacorp's goons? I'll spin circles around them and make them confess.
Boy: Ah! Over there!
The boy points to a group of children his age.
Spinnah: Your friends? We'd better get them to leave before they pick up their evil spin blades.
Boy: Okay! I'll try telling them again!
As the boy runs up to his friends, he suddenly freezes at the sight of the objects in their hands.
Boy: No... Evil spin blades!
They are focused entirely on twirling their spin blades, blank expressions on their faces.
Spinnah: So the megacorp's already begun handing them out, I see...
Boy: Stop twirling those spin blades! Get a hold of yourselves, everyone!
Boy's Friend 1: ...
Boy: Let's just play with mine! It's an oldie but a goodie!
As the boy takes out his own personal spin blade, his friend snatches it without saying a word.
The friend raises the spin blade up high.
Boy: Stop!
The friend slams it onto the ground. The spin blade is now in pieces.
Boy: What did you to go my gear! That was a present from my dad!
Boy: Sniff... This was the last present my dad gave me before he went off to spin blader training years ago...
Dad: I'll be going now. Use this spin blade to keep Mom safe.
Boy: You can count on me, Dad! Good luck out there!
Dad: Good answer! You make me proud to be your dad! Hahah!
The friend remains expressionless even after having destroyed such an important keepsake, a sign that he's been fully hypnotized.
What happens next comes as a surprise to all.
Spinnah: Watch out, everyone!
Vyrn: Urk!
Iron bars suddenly come down on the crew and keep them locked in, save for Spinnah.
Spinnah: Looks like they knew we'd be coming to the party.
Rackam: How did you know to dodge at the right moment?
Spinnah: I was able to read the change in wind pressure when the wings of my spin blades slightly twitched in response to the iron bars coming down.
CEO: Hah-hah, you're quite the fighter.
Boy: That's the CEO of the megacorp!
Spinnah: So you're the one plotting world domination.
CEO: That's right! My evil spin blades will bring the world under my control!
Ruffian: Hehe. Quaking in your boots yet? You got me pretty good earlier!
Spinnah: You again... That explains why the megacorp knew about us coming.
Spinnah: But this changes nothing! In fact, everything's just been made crystal clear!
CEO: Mwahaha! Too bad I can't let you live now that you know the truth!
Vyrn: Er... You didn't even try to hide the fact...
Spinnah: Come at me from any direction you want. Whatever happens, I'm going to be spinning some sense into you!

The End of Spinnah: Scene 2

Spinnah overwhelms the megacorp goons at first, but he falls under the hypnosis of an evil spin blade. The boy who came with the crew is called to attention by his spin blade and ends up saving Spinnah. Freed of the hypnosis, he knocks out the remaining goons.



Spinnah: Haah!
Spinnah leaps to the ceiling and tosses a spin blade while still in midair.
Big Guy: Urgh!
Vyrn: Yeah! Go get 'em, Fidget Fingers!
While the crew cheers Spinnah on from inside a cage, a man in a white coat standing near them watches the battle curiously.
???: My... That is one skilled spin blader...
Vyrn: Huh? Who are you, mister?
???: I'm the brains behind the evil spin blade.
Rackam: I suggest you surrender before things turn bad for you.
Scientist: Oh? Shouldn't you be the ones to surrender? Fighting by himself, that man surely won't last long.
Vyrn: Heheh, just you watch! Fidget Fingers is a heckuva lot stronger than you might think!
Scientist: Perhaps so, but I doubt he'll be able to outlast an entire army.
Meanwhile, Spinnah uses the wind from his spin blades to whip up the water from the glasses on the table.
Spinnah: Try and get me if you can. Just know that there's only one me.
Ruffian: What the... Why am I seein' a bunch of you!
Scientist: I can't believe it! He cast his reflection into the splash of water to create mirror images of himself!
The scientist is rendered speechless. But Spinnah has even more tricks up his sleeve.
Big Guy: Gwaaah! It burns!
Spinnah: Get close, and get burned. Sadly for you, that's no metaphor.
Spinnah tosses a spin blade that flies around the ruffians while unleashing flames.
Scientist: Unbelievable! The friction caused by the high velocity of the spin blade is resulting in fires!
Bad Guy: Gehehe, doesn't work on me! I trained on top of a volcano! A bit of heat's not gonna faze me!
Spinnah: How about this?
Spinnah thrusts his spin blades forward, causing the ruffians to start shaking.
Bad Guy: Wh-why is it suddenly so cold...
Bad Guy: Rgh!
Scientist: I can't believe what I'm seeing! Did he just freeze the air? That shouldn't be possible!
Scientist: Ah, I see! He's using the spin blades as a mega fan, acting as an evaporative cooling system!
The megacorp goons find themselves in awe of Spinnah's many breathtaking techniques.
Scientist: Humph... I'll admit you have skill, but we'll still be the ones to come out on top!
Vyrn: No way, Jose! Fidget Finger's got this in the bag!
As the battle continues on, Spinnah finds himself with a sudden headache.
Spinnah: What in the...
Rackam: You're not looking too hot, Spinnah! What's wrong?
Scientist: Mwahaha! Have you forgotten about the evil spin blades already?
Scientist: The hypnosis is applied to not only their wielders, but also to everyone in the immediate vicinity!
Boy: No... Hang in there, mister!
The crew rises up together with the ground, iron bars still around them.
Lyria: Eep! We're floating in the air!
Rackam: Eh, I don't like being shook around! What are you planning to do with us!
Scientist: Bwahaha! You'll be spending the rest of your lives in those cages!
CEO: Haha... Watch with us as the world is soaked in the color of our evil spin blades!
Rackam: Guys, this is bad...
Boy: Darn it... What now! We have to help Mr. Spin Blader somehow!
The crew can do nothing but watch as their friend slowly loses consciousness, surrounded by enemies.
That's when the boy hears a voice call out.
???: (...!)
Boy: Huh? Where's that coming from?
???: (I'm right here! In your pocket!)
Boy: What the... The spin blade's talking!
The boy takes it out of his pocket.
Spin Blade: (You have the power to save him! Just go ahead and spin me!)
Boy: I can't... There's no way I'm as good as him.
Spin Blade: (You'll be fine! You had the bravery to rise up to protect your friends. There's a special power within you!)
Boy: But one of your wings is broken... Not to mention I'm not sure I can throw you properly while standing on shaky ground.
Spin Blade: (Spin blades present infinite possibilities! Give me a flick and see for yourself.)
Boy: Um... Okay! I'll give it a shot!
The boy tries his best to get the spin blade going.
Rackam: Huh? What in the...
The others turn to the boy and are shocked to see him floating upside down.
Boy: Whoa! How am I doing this!
Scientist: What am I seeing now? It can't be! Did that boy really reverse the aerodynamic flow with the power of rotation, thereby restoring his balance?
Spin Blade: (Now!)
Boy: Okay then! Spiiiiin!
The spin blade slips past the iron bars and flies straight down.
Ruffian: Urk!
Big Guy: Ack!
The spin blade blows away the ruffians all at once.
Spinnah: Heheh. How's that for a comeback!
Spinnah: Time to clean up this mess!

The End of Spinnah: Scene 3

When the defeated CEO sees a group of merry children gathered around a spin blade, he remembers better days and vows to lead his company toward a more righteous path. Spinnah learns of secret societies plotting world domination through evil spin blades and is intent on stopping every last one of them.



Spinnah: I've crushed your nefarious plans. Ready to admit defeat yet?
Having defeated the megacorp's henchmen and destroying their evil spin blades, Spinnah corners the CEO and scientist.
Scientist: Impossible... How could my patented evil spin blades possibly lose...
CEO: Damn it... Those weapons were supposed to be our gateway to world domination...
Spinnah: A spin blade is a work of art. To use one as a weapon is merely one possibility of many.
CEO: Bah, what do you know! Spin blades are nothing more than weapons!
Spinnah: No, they're art.
CEO: Shut it! They're weapons!
Spinnah: Art.
Vyrn: Er... (What happened to those things being just toys?)
Spinnah: Quite persistent, aren't you? You need to look no further than there for proof that spin blades are art.
Spinnah directs the CEO to a scene of children gathered around a spin blade.
Boy's Friend 1: I'm so sorry for smashing your precious spin blade earlier...
Boy: One of the wings came off, but it still works! It even has a voice!
Boy's Friend 2: What? No way! Now you're just being silly!
Boy: I'm telling the truth!
Boy's Friend 1: Ahahaha! You weirdo!
Spinnah: A beautiful sight, don't you think? Can what you claim to be powerful weapons really make children smile like that?
CEO: ...!
Well...
CEO: You're right... How did I ever forget... I created spin blades to see children smile.
CEO: But the craze died off, and spin blades became a thing of the past far too soon. The despair sent me spiraling into a void of sadness and hate.
CEO: I vowed revenge on the world that had forgotten spin blades—a revenge that would take the form of what they'd cast aside.
Vyrn: Oh? (That explains why his world domination had to be done through toys!)
CEO: Now though, seeing the smiles on those children takes me back to better times.
CEO: Okay... I know what direction to go in now. I'm going to continue making spin blades as they were meant to be!
Spinnah: Solid decision. If you're ever lost again, just give a spin blade a flick.
Spinnah: After all, the answer to everything—even the answers you seek—lies within a spin blade's rotations.
Vyrn: Fidget Fingers isn't making any sense as usual. Right, (Captain)?
  1. I wanna spin.
  2. The answer to that lies in a rotation.

Choose: I wanna spin.
Vyrn: Haha, fair enough! Let's go play with a spin blade ourselves later!

Choose: The answer to that lies in a rotation.
Vyrn: Gah, not you too! Do you even know what that means?
Lyria: Ahaha... All's well that ends well, I guess.
Continue 1
On the following day, the crew prepares for liftoff at the docks.
Vyrn: Hoo boy... Just thinking back to the close call that Spinnah had has me reeling.
Spinnah: The boy's spins were quite brilliant. An entertaining party it was.
Spinnah: Though he doesn't seem to be able to reproduce that miracle spin. I wonder if it was a once-in-a-lifetime thing that the spin blade showed him.
Rackam: Wait, how do you even know about that? I thought the enemy had you hypnotized.
Spinnah: Heheh.
Vyrn: Don't tell me! You were just pretending to be beaten?
Rackam: How? The pattern and sound created by the evil spin blades should have had you spellbound.
Spinnah: I was able to nullify the sound's effect by a rotation of the opposite frequency.
Lyria: Um... This is a bit too complex for me...
Spinnah: To put it simply, the sound never reached me.
Spinnah: As for the pattern, it makes no difference if you simply turn your eyes away from it.
Rackam: Wait a sec... You mean were looking away from those goons while fighting them the whole time?
Boy: Heheh! I knew you were faking it!
Vyrn: Huh? Here to say goodbye?
Boy: I later thought about how that battle went down. And there was no way you could have lost to those lowlifes, Mr. Spin Blader.
Boy: I couldn't stop wondering why you had to play pretend. So here I am to ask in person!
Spinnah: It's simple. I wanted to give you a chance to grow, and I had faith your spin blade would rise to the occasion.
Boy: Thanks, mister... I keep telling everyone about how my spin blade guided me, but they just point and laugh!
Spinnah: I believe you. After all, spin blades present infinite possibilities.
Boy: Ahaha! I knew at least you would believe me!
Rackam: All right, we're lifting off!
(Captain) and crew wave goodbye to the boy as the Grandcypher begins to take off from the docks. He continues running toward them.
Boy: Hey!
Spinnah: The CEO said he'll repair your spin blade! Go pay him a visit later!
Boy: Thanks, mister! I'm gonna be a spin blade master like you one day!
Boy: My mom told me the truth about my dad—he didn't leave to train as a spin blader; he left to fight against secret societies!
Boy: There are apparently secret societies out there looking to take over the world with spin blades!
Vyrn: Gah, world domination with toys again—
Spinnah: So the megacorp wasn't the end of it, I see. I'll keep my eyes peeled as well in my travels.
Boy: I'm gonna go on a journey too one day to find my dad and take out those secret societies!
Spinnah: I wish you the best of luck! Trust in the spin blade! May the spin be with you!
Boy: Really appreciate your help, mister! Goodbye and take care, everyone!
The waving boy appears smaller and smaller as the Grandcypher flies off.
Spinnah: To think that there are more fools conspiring to sieze the world with spin blades...
Spinnah: I set out on this journey hoping to bring spin blades into the limelight once more...
Spinnah: But those secret societies present far too great of a threat to ignore.
Vyrn: Right... So why use toys to—
Spinnah: I say bring it on! I'll outspin every last one of them and crush their evil ambitions!
Vyrn: Lemme talk already! Why use toys for world domination?
Vyrn asks a good question. Spinnah might actually get back to him about it one day.
After all, the answer to everything lies in the almighty rotation.
See you next spin!
*Please refrain from throwing spin blades at people IRL.
