Well. just to keep things moving along, I decided to post the translation of the 96 secrets listed in the guide. This is just the names/titles of the secrets, not the whole blurb for each one. The reasons why I did it this way are: Most of the secrets are just bizarre animations or useless minutia; Most of the secrets are well known and already readily available in English guides/FAQs; Most importantly, it would take me a lot longer to translate all of that stuff and this way everyone can get an idea about what the topics are and follow up with more focused questions or comments from there
.
That said, this was a lot harder than I thought it’d be
. Mainly because of trying to figure out what character/place/item/element they were talking about. Apparently, I don’t really remember CC as well as I thought I did – that and the fact that the Japanese and English names are often completely different. For that reason, this comes with a big disclaimer that there is a sizeable amount of information here that I am not particularly confident in. I just don’t know the name of ピパピパ in English, and honestly, with my dial-up connection, didn’t have the motivation to go Googling. I will, however, try my best to follow up and revise this as I confirm some of these things. And one last note, the next section I am looking at is dedicated to the connection between the Chrono games. Sounds a lot more promising than it actually reads, but nonetheless I'll let you know more about as soon as I can. 楽しみにしてね.
(EDIT: Big thanks to Chrono99 for helping me with the correct names of people and places from CC.
