My main R-Type Final accomplishment tonight was earning 100.0% in the Bydo Labs. It so happens that the night I analyzed all enemies was one day later than one month after I observed all the enemies (Yes, the game keeps track of the date. I suppose it's a good thing I entered the date in the PS2 correctly, as I believe it's incorrect for every other system).

The very last one to earn was the big eel from stage 3.5. The only way I was able to destroy it was with the Ragnarok II. The other enemies I analyzed tonight include the R-9A, the R-13, and that boss that is, by itself, stage 6.1.

The Ragnarok II's description claims its fully powered beam (which has SEVEN stages of charge) can destroy any enemy in the game in one hit. So far, I believe it. It has indeed taken out every boss I've tried it against so far. Now, you might wonder, might that ruin the final boss? Not really, since A) For one final boss, you won't be able to take advantage of this beam (then again, this final boss is easy anyway, sadly) B) For another final boss, you cannot use this ship (except in score attack mode) C) The remaining final stage has no final boss.


I think I have 65 ships. I have something like 27 or 28 gallery pictures.
