GENERAL HAYATI TANI AND HIS VOLUNTARY ARMY
         Unlike Count Beat Takeshi, General Hayati Tani thinks that a voluntary army is better than a professional one. That is why every time he attacks with more than 100 volunteers. And so, another days starts for General Tani just like it starts for Count Takeshi. The General gathered an army of brave people that are determined to conquer Takeshi's Castle at any cost-no matter what despicable tricks Takeshi will use. They aren't afraid of Takeshi's defense forces. Before they attack, they gather in the forest where General Tani has a speech that makes them ever more confident and determined to win.
         After the General has told his speech, the challengers are supposed to show some sign of enthusiasm, and they do. Well, after that, General Tani calls for attack and the army makes its way through 9 games! Let the games begin, then! In this scenario, you'll get info about other games than in Takeshi's scenario. So, let's get started!!!
GAME 1-the great wall
The wall is 2,5 meters high, and on the other side there's a slippery and steep area-to make getting off the top a little easier. Whoever makes it over the wall in the limited time for this game, is in for the next game. A relatively easy game, but can be very difficult if the challenger weighs too much! Understand what I mean? It can be very funny watching those! But hey, no offense, nobody's perfect!
GAME 2-the fortress
Something like stairs...40 narrow steps up a hill. But, there are also Takeshi's men with water guns. If the paper shield hanging off a challenger's helmet gets ruined or lost, that challenger is out. Whoever can get on top of the fortress without getting his shiled ruined, can advance to the next game.
GAME 3-football Takeshi style
Theoretically simple. General Tani throws you a foot ball, you just have to run over the field into the touch down zone. But there are Takeshi's defense players. If you're a man, you have to face 7 of them. Women have to go against 5. Should a challenger lose a ball, get knocked to the ground, or step out of the field, that means he/she is OUT! Whoever makes a touch down, advances to the next game. Of course there are referees, so NO CHEATING!
GAME 4-riding the waves
You are allowed to push the board only once, all further movements mean you're disqualified. Anyway, you're supposed to throw yourself on the board and travel with it on a narrow wall to the green arrow that marks "GOAL". If the push is to weak and the challenger doesn't make it over, the water monster Masanori Okada will come out and throw him/her into the water. If the push is too strong and the challenger shoots himself/herself over the goal, he/she also lands in water. In both cases that means OUT for the challenger. This game requires some skill.
GAME 5-sumo rings
Each challenger has to draw a ball. If he/she's not lucky, he/she'll have to fight a professional sumo wrestler! If the challenger has more luck, th opponent will be Michiru Jo or some weird guy in a heavy costume that's no sweat to defeat. Whoever wins, advances to next game. I think the chances of picking an easier oponent are larger.
GAME 6-the giant rice bowl downhill
Every challenger is placed into a giant rice bowl. With it, he/she has to slide down a steep wet area, under wich is a pool of water. According to laws of physics, the weight has to be quickly transferred to the other side of the bowl upon hitting water, or else it's OUT! Naturally, only the ones that make it without flipping over or falling out of the bowl, advance.
GAME 7-valley of rocks
This one is difficult. Every challenger must climb up a canyon with rather soft ground, so it's difficult to walk on it. Furthermore, on Michiru Jo's command, Takeshi's men will roll down rock on the challengers (of course not real rocks). There are 3 side exits on the canyon, where a challenger can hide from rocks. But in the exits lurk Takeshi's men who will naturally push the challenger back into the canyon. Whoever can make it to the top without getting knocked down by a rock, makes it into next game.
GAME 8-karaoke
Welcome to Mr. Koji Sekiyama's karaoke bar, new talents! Here, a random song (more than 500 possible) will be picked. If you sing well and Mr. Sekiyama likes your performance, he will let you pass. Accompanied by two cute bunny girls, you'll be leaving the bar through back door (of course the bunny girls return in for the next one, so this game is no way to pick up girls...). If he's not happy, he'll tell his personal bodyguard Mr. Tatayuki Zokomizo to throw you out...LITERALLY! Can be pretty difficult.
GAME 9-the secret passages
Always the same. Makoto Dainejni and Tatsuo Tokashiki will hide in two of five passages...if you get caught by them, you'll not be in the final showdown...though luck, you were so close...must be pretty frustrating. Whoever gets into the right passage, will battle Takeshi in the final showdown. Congratulations!
THE FINAL SHOWDOWN
          So, here we are! General Tani gathers his VERY reduced number of troops in front of Takeshi's Castle. He's serious-it's all or nothing! The challengers can't wait to attack. When he calls for attack, they will jump in those cars, equipped with water pistols, in later episodes with laser guns. And in later episodes with lasers General Tani also participates in combat-once or twice it happened that he was the one who hit Takeshi's vehicle. If that vehicle gets hit, it's considered eliminated and Takeshi defeated. If Takeshi's men eliminate every challenger plus the General, Takeshi wins. Let the showdown begin!....
SINCE THIS IS TANI'S PAGE, I'LL MAKE TANI VICTORIOUS IN THIS SCENARIO.
...DIRECT HIT! Takeshi's battle car is eliminated! Takeshi is defeated, the fireworks is set off in the General's and the challengers' honour! General Tani is happy and proud. His little army that was really tired and worn out after those games, won. Only because the challengers tried their best, they could defeat Count Takeshi. Takeshi, on the other hand is dissapointed...his advisor Ishikura will be punished for not training the defense forces hard enough. Or maybe, even better, he'll be replaced by Sonnemama Higashi. Takeshi knows, even though Tani has won, he will return with more volunteers and try to conquer Takeshi's Castle once again.
So, Takeshi was defeated...
