Chimera (Downtown)

"A curtain of fear descends upon the city, as cannons roar over evening's gloom. Villainous kidnappers will receive no quarter!" - Flavor Text (Chimera)

"The book is not yet closed on the muse's story - and all remaining clues point toward Eden." - Flavor Text (Aggressor)

Intro

Downtown is the location for Copen's intro stage in Azure Striker Gunvolt 2, and is also the last prologue stage for Gunvolt.

Copen's stage involves him trying to save Mytyl, but it instead involves him blowing up a lot of robots because Eden.

Gunvolt's stage involves him fighting Tenjian after the latter sort of destroys Joule. Needless to say, Gunvolt isn't too happy about that...

Briefing(s)

Chimera

Nori: Mytyl's tracker let us determine her location, Copen. She's on the Seraph--a massive Sumeragi airship.

Copen: Sumeragi?! What do those scumbags want with Mytyl? Come on, Lola!

Lola: Easy, Boss! Don't go losing your head! Not that my undies aren't in a twist about it...

Aggressor

Tenjian: It's time to test the power of the* Zonda's Sumeragi Glaive.

Gunvolt: You won't get away with this Tenjian. You or Eden!

*Typo in the original text

Ultimatum 1 (GV)

Mytyl: Welcome to the Secret Mission! Okay, so I kinda need to apologize in advance, but... I can't use The Muse's song to bring you back here.

Stage Composition

Chimera

• This stage is meant to be a showcase of all of Copen's abilities, such as Bullit-dashing, hovering, deploying Flashfield and EX Weapons, and flailing everywhere with Shred Storm
• The second section will have a barrage of missiles periodically fly down until you reach the boss. Keep your Flashfield up and you'll be fine.

Aggressor

• This fight with Tenjian is easier than the real one you'll have later. A number of Tenjian's follow-up attacks aren't triggered here, nor their secondary effects. He also doesn't subject you to ice physics.
