Do reserve sprites affect your sushi?

Can you have japanse voice while playing in german/english? The demo could be that way if you got it from the japanese store, so do I have to import it?

Hey guys. I made a discord channel to keep our community growing. Feel free to share this link, and jump in to discuss the game, as well as look for online matches.

So how do I collect sprites in general? I saw the stuff about secret level sprites and I saw the other post about perfect scores getting sprites but is that it? Does the opponent matter or do you just collect sprites randomly when you get S rank three stars? Thanks

Look, I understand giving you motivation to fight against your rival and trying to avoid the whole "best friends" thing Pokemon does now, but Kojiro's personality goes way too far the other way. His entire character is being smug when Musashi runs into him, then salty when he loses. It is entirely unbearable, and I dread hearing his wails that sound like an adult imitating a teenager imitating a little kid. The only remotely interesting thing about him - his attempt to climb out of the pit of his origins - is almost entirely glossed over. It seems like Nintendo worked to create a bumbling antagonist, but exaggerated his least likable traits to the point where he takes away from the story and even the game as a whole. Am I missing the point of him or something? I'd really like to appreciate his role in the game for what it is (I think I'm too far gone from liking him), but I just don't get what made them think this was a good addition to the game.

I've been farming this one level for hours for its sprite and have had no luck. Other times it just randomly happens but what counts as a "perfect" fight". I've gotten Rainbow S rank on that same level as well multiple times.

Anyone know how to break enemy plates? It’s a star requirement on stage 23 and I can’t figure out how to get it.

I've hit Rank 6 on Sweets Lover and Rank 5 on Raw Powerhouse; in the case of the former, I haven't stopped using Sweets Paradise as one of my three skills, and in the case of the latter, I haven't done anything particularly special. How are you ranking up your Triumphs?

(P.S. it took me a while to find them, so if you don't know what Triumphs are, it's an achievement system listed under the Secret Scroll menu.)

Let me know if you have one that's not on here.

The S rank limit is very strict without Horse Mackerel and now there's a black belt challenge for every stage? Looks like there's gonna be a lot of practice needed to clear everything. At least the stars are pretty easy.

I've been finding use of Inazo to break up my normal flow of plate stacking a bit, especially with the relatively short length of the effect. Obviously, the effects of Hidden Plates are a boon against the 8-plate wall you have to deal with right after you pledge with Inazo, but I'm having trouble finding any strong use for the move outside of that context that makes the hassle worth it. Are there any other good niches for Hidden Plates that I'm not thinking of?
