Gokujyo translation?

Post by shinsage »

I was just wondering what Gokujyo (in Parodius) means; I think Gokujou means 'wonderful', but I didn't know if it was the same as Gokujyo.
For the record, Da means 2, right?

Not in Japanese, it doesn't. :) It means "to be" or "is". Dictionary form. Gokujou means "deluxe" or "best" or something like that.

Parodius da! = "It's Parodius!" ("da" = informal for "it is")

Gokujou Parodius = "Highest Quality Parodius"

Jikkyou Oshaberi Parodius = "Real Time Chatting Parodius" (or less literally, "Live Commentary Parodius")

Sexy Parodius = well, don't need to explain that one


BTW, "Gokujou" and "Gokujyo" are just two different ways of romanizing the same word.


Edit:

BTW2: The title of the Deluxe Pack, "Gokujou Parodius da!" is a combo of the titles of first two games. ;)


Edit 2:

Looks like I was beaten to the ...Gaijin... Punch. :wink:
