1. Author's Note
----------
Hello there, readers! Welcome to my Xenosaga Episode II Double Tech Guide! The
Techs are Japanese so we'll try to cover up some translations and descriptions
just for you! So just sit in the front of the computer, eyes on the Guide and
read! Enjoy!
----------
2. Why bother making this Guide?
----------
You might wonder, no? Making this short Guide for nothing? Well, actually I'm
liking the game but when it comes to Japanese conversations, you just sit in
the couch, drooling and thinking "Ha? I don't understand." and just keep
playing it without understanding! For me, I'm here making the Guide not just
for those who understand Japanese, it's for everyone!
----------
3. How is it formed?
----------
So, how does the Tech Guide form? Here are some parts:
Sample:
-----
Skill [1]
(2 persons who will use the Tech) [2]
Single/All (Enemy or Ally) [3]
Effect [4]
Translated(or US) Name [5]
-----
Description:
Dialogue: [6]
[1] Name of Skill
[2] 2 persons who will use the Skill
[3] Who will be affected on the Skill?
[4] The effect of the Skill
[5] Japanese Translated name and US Version Skill name
[6] Dialogue on the characters (along with English Translations)
Simple enough? Let's move on.
----------

appears where both of them facing behind, cherry blossoms(or Sakura) flying,
a circle of bonfire and the moon with clouds in it. Everytime they attack the
opponent, a kanji appears(you saw it, right?) in it and I found 9 of them. I'm

(Shion does the Chinese dance! whoo hoo!) then they will jump in the air,
