Link: [https://www.nintendopower.com/images/NP244_Starfy.jpg]&lt;/ref&gt;), is a &quot;Marine Action&quot; game produced by [[Nintendo]] and [[TOSE]] with elements of platforming, for the [[Nintendo DS]].<br /> <br /> It is the first localized game in the [[The Legendary Starfy (series)|''The Legendary Starfy'' series]]. It was originally released in Japan on July 10, 2008, and on February 26, 2009 it appeared [https://web.archive.org/web/20090303215207/https://press.nintendo.com/articles.jsp?id=17588 on an upcoming list of videogames to be released in North America] on June 8, 2009 on the [https://press.nintendo.com/loginSplash.jsp Nintendo's Online Press Room] website. The game was actually released in North America one day earlier than scheduled.<br /> [[File:TLS icon.png|frame|left|Game icon]]<br /> {{clr|l}}<br /> ==Story==<br /> {{spoiler}}<br /> While [[Starfy]] is sleeping in his bed, he is suddenly awoken by a [[Bunston|rabbit-like creature]] in a spacesuit that crashes through his ceiling. [[The Terrible Trio|Three shady goons]] appear and try to capture the creature, but Starfy fights them off using his [[Star Spin]]. The three figures vow revenge and leave and the rabbit creature runs away. Starfy wants to help him, and so follows his trail to the edge of [[Pufftop]]. Starfy's best friend [[Moe]] appears and discourages Starfy from helping it. Before they know it, they slip off the edge of Pufftop and plummet into the sea, beginning Starfy's adventure. Starfy and Moe go through [[Gluglug Lagoon]], where they find [[Big Squiddy]] is holding the creature. After chasing Big Squiddy down, the creature gives Starfy the Monstar ability, which he uses to free the creature, who believes they are allied with the three goons and runs to [[Hotcha Springs]]. After defeating Big Squiddy, they go there and find out the creature is named [[Bunston]]. He joins them because he finds that a [[shard]] found by Starfy helps him regain his memory, which reveals that he is the prince of a planet called [[Planet Bunnera|Bunnera]], which was attacked by goons. Bunston learns that he can give Starfy the [[Monstar]] ability. The three are then attacked by the [[Hot-Spring Snapper]]. Starfy proceeds to defeat it, and finds another shard. The three go to [[Chillydip Cove]], where Bunston learns the [[Starpedo]] ability. From two seals called [[Piplion]] and [[Puplion]], they learn that King Ping and his penguin goons have been troubling the area. Starfy defeats [[King Ping]] and finds a [[Shard]], and the three are launched to [[Sogwood Forest]]. There they meet the goons that attacked Bunston in the beginning, who turn out to be the &quot;[[The Terrible Trio|Terrible Trio]]&quot; of [[The Terrible Trio#Snips|Snips]], [[The Terrible Trio#Ronk|Ronk]], and [[The Terrible Trio#Papes|Papes]] and they want to kidnap Bunston. Starfy battles Papes, and after defeating him takes his Shard, which causes Bunston to remember his spaceship. Starfy and his friends go to [[Glitzem Grotto]], where they find Ronk and defeat him. Then he and Papes try to use a minecart to defeat Starfy, but once again he triumphs. Bunston then remembers that the Terrible Trio shot him down over Pufftop and that the shards are pieces of his ship. The three friends find out that they must collect the remaining shards so that Bunston can save his planet. They fall into [[Skydye Heights]], where the final member of the Terrible Trio, Snips, is lurking with another shard. After defeating her, the player finds out the Trio's real boss has taken Bunnera and Bunston is the last Bunneran left, so the Terrible Trio was sent to capture him. As the heroes head to the [[S.S. Logwater]] to find the last shard, the Trio regroups, and thinks about giving up, but their boss threatens them into continuing, so they follow. Starfy makes it past a giant [[snark]] called [[Mega Snark]], only to find the Terrible Trio again. Starfy defeats all three again, but they try to use a &quot;secret weapon&quot; against him called the [[The Terrible Trio#The Paper-Cut Crusher|Paper-Cut Crusher]]. In order for Starfy to defeat The Terrible Trio during this attack, he must beat them in a Rock-Paper-Scissors game. When Starfy beats them at this, he, Moe, and Bunston take off for Bunnera. It is revealed that the Bunnerans could shapeshift because of a power inside them, which is how he transformed to help Starfy. The Trio's boss, who it turns out is the space pirate [[Mashtooth]], wanted to absorb this power to become powerful enough to take over the galaxy, and to do that he requires Bunston. This is why he sent Snips, Ronk, and Papes after Bunston. When Bunnera Castle was attacked, Bunston fled in his spaceship.<br /> {{endspoiler}}<br /> <br /> ==Stages==<br /> *[[Gluglug Lagoon]]<br /> *[[Hotcha Springs]]<br /> *[[Chillydip Cove]]<br /> *[[Sogwood Forest]]<br /> *[[Glitzem Grotto]]<br /> *[[Skydye Heights]]<br /> *[[S.S.

He joins them because he finds that a [[shard]] found by Starfy helps him regain his memory, which reveals that he is the prince of a planet called [[Planet Bunnera|Bunnera]], which was attacked by goons. Bunston learns that he can give Starfy the [[Monstar]] ability. The three are then attacked by the [[Hot-Spring Snapper]]. Starfy proceeds to defeat it, and finds another shard. The three go to [[Chillydip Cove]], where Bunston learns the [[Starpedo]] ability. From two seals called [[Piplion]] and [[Puplion]], they learn that King Ping and his penguin goons have been troubling the area. Starfy defeats [[King Ping]] and finds a [[Shard]], and the three are launched to [[Sogwood Forest]]. There they meet the goons that attacked Bunston in the beginning, who turn out to be the &quot;[[The Terrible Trio|Terrible Trio]]&quot; of [[The Terrible Trio#Snips|Snips]], [[The Terrible Trio#Ronk|Ronk]], and [[The Terrible Trio#Papes|Papes]] and they want to kidnap Bunston. Starfy battles Papes, and after defeating him takes his Shard, which causes Bunston to remember his spaceship. Starfy and his friends go to [[Glitzem Grotto]], where they find Ronk and defeat him. Then he and Papes try to use a minecart to defeat Starfy, but once again he triumphs. Bunston then remembers that the Terrible Trio shot him down over Pufftop and that the shards are pieces of his ship. The three friends find out that they must collect the remaining shards so that Bunston can save his planet. They fall into [[Skydye Heights]], where the final member of the Terrible Trio, Snips, is lurking with another shard. After defeating her, the player finds out the Trio's real boss has taken Bunnera and Bunston is the last Bunneran left, so the Terrible Trio was sent to capture him. As the heroes head to the [[S.S. Logwater]] to find the last shard, the Trio regroups, and thinks about giving up, but their boss threatens them into continuing, so they follow. Starfy makes it past a giant [[snark]] called [[Mega Snark]], only to find the Terrible Trio again. Starfy defeats all three again, but they try to use a &quot;secret weapon&quot; against him called the [[The Terrible Trio#The Paper-Cut Crusher|Paper-Cut Crusher]]. In order for Starfy to defeat The Terrible Trio during this attack, he must beat them in a Rock-Paper-Scissors game. When Starfy beats them at this, he, Moe, and Bunston take off for Bunnera. It is revealed that the Bunnerans could shapeshift because of a power inside them, which is how he transformed to help Starfy. The Trio's boss, who it turns out is the space pirate [[Mashtooth]], wanted to absorb this power to become powerful enough to take over the galaxy, and to do that he requires Bunston. This is why he sent Snips, Ronk, and Papes after Bunston. When Bunnera Castle was attacked, Bunston fled in his spaceship.<br /> {{endspoiler}}<br /> <br /> ==Stages==<br /> *[[Gluglug Lagoon]]<br /> *[[Hotcha Springs]]<br /> *[[Chillydip Cove]]<br /> *[[Sogwood Forest]]<br /> *[[Glitzem Grotto]]<br /> *[[Skydye Heights]]<br /> *[[S.S.

In November 1995, [[Nintendo]] producer [[Hitoshi Yamagami]]'s boss instructed him to create some kind of &quot;floaty platformer&quot;. Hitoshi Yamagami would later collaborate with TOSE producer [[Yasuhiro Minamimoto]].&lt;ref&gt;[https://ds.nintendolife.com/news/2009/05/interviews_nintendotose_the_legendary_starfy Interviews: Nintendo/TOSE - The Legendary Starfy - DS News @ Nintendo Life (with insight about the development of Densetsu no Starfy)]&lt;/ref&gt; It originally went under development as a balloon-lifting game, until being reworked as a game where the player has to control a bubble with a Nintendo character in it&lt;ref&gt;[[Nintendo Power]] [https://www.nintendopower.com/images/NP244_Starfy.jpg Volume 244, page 73]&lt;/ref&gt; and later a floating character. Both a jellyfish and a starfish were initial considerations, and a starfish was eventually chosen for the game. <br /> <br /> Development on this game continued through 1998 and as such, Nintendo encouraged TOSE to rework this game for the Game Boy Color. In 2000, the Game Boy Color version underwent a period of promotion, where details about the game began to surface on the official Japanese [[Nintendo]] website. The game was shown at [[Nintendo World|Nintendo Space World]] as [[Densetsu no Starfy (GBC)|''Densetsu no Starfy'' for the Game Boy Color]].<br /> <br /> As the game was approaching its release for the Game Boy Color, it was again canceled and rebuilt for the Game Boy Advance which was only going to be released in 2001. Starfy was apparently going to be purely a starfish, until he was made to fall down from the sky, which supposedly invoked a community policy for TOSE to reply that Starfy is neither a star or a starfish when asked.<br /> <br /> There are various differences between the Game Boy Color version and the final Game Boy Advance version still noticeable on Nintendo of Japan's page about the Nintendo Space World trial demo. For example, the official logo and some of the character artwork and names of characters were changed later in development, including [[Moe|Kyorosuke]] (Moe) who was originally known as &quot;Kyororon&quot;. It should be noted however that the [[Nintendo World#Nintendo Space World 2001|Nintendo Space World 2001]] trial demo for the [[Game Boy Advance]] was promoted with the old logo used during the Game Boy Color period. There was also character artwork for the Game Boy Advance version from early in development, which although different (with the exception of [[Moe]]), were not final.<br /> <br /> ''Densetsu no Starfy'' was re-released in Japan for the Wii U Virtual Console on July 29, 2015 for 702 yen (including tax).<br /> ==Story==<br /> {{spoiler}}<br /> Surrounded by the vast sea there is a kingdom high above the clouds called [[Pufftop]]. Living there is Starfy, the prince of Pufftop. Starfy is often careless and clumsy in nature. Times were normally peaceful in Pufftop, until Starfy was carrying around valuable [[treasure]] and he accidentally dropped a [[jar]] into the ocean. Just then, the being inside the jar used his magical powers to create a terrible storm. Tornadoes then struck the Pufftop Palace. Starfy struggled to hang on, and eventually dropped into the ocean showing his [[Done For]] pose. Starfy fell straight into [[Lobber's Cave]], located on a small island.<br /> <br /> A wise lobster, [[Old Man Lobber]] found Starfy in his cave and asked Starfy if he could hear him. After finding out that Starfy is OK, Old Man Lobber advises that Starfy should rest a while in his cave from the terrible storm. Old Man Lobber wonders what to do with Starfy, as he is too weak to return to Pufftop. Old Man Lobber mentions a friend of his, [[Herman]] and Starfy proceeds to find Herman.<br /> <br /> Starfy finds Herman wearing an ordinary gray shell. He has lost his missing home; a conch shell called the [[Pretty Shell]] and Herman asks him to find it. After finding a [[Kettle]], Herman, believing it may have been washed further, gives Starfy a key leading to another part of the level, where Starfy finds a tusk shell - the [[Dentalium Shell]]. After finding the tusk shell, Herman - who finds the shell too small - thinks that it is behind the rocks. He then teaches Starfy how to use the [[Star Spin]] attack. Later, Starfy finds the colorful conch shell and returns it to Herman. Herman is very grateful for Starfy and leads Starfy to the next stage, [[Coral Reef]].<br /> <br /> Herman asks Starfy to find his friend who is being chased by bad guys. One of the bad guys is seen swimming away, so Starfy follows him. Starfy advances to a room with two bad guys known as the [[Fork]] [[Fork's brother|brothers]]. When Starfy finds them to be picking on a yellow clam, he defeats them with his Star Spin. The yellow clam is revealed to be [[Moe]]. He reveals that &quot;his dearest&quot; [[Ruby]] was kidnapped by a bad guy called [[Konk]]. It was then Fork and his brother chased after him. Starfy and Moe become good friends, and Moe joins Starfy on his quest back to Pufftop, offering advice. Later, after destroying the Dentalium Shell and the Kettle that were blocking the water from flowing, Starfy finds and defeats Konk. Ruby returns and Moe is much happy to see her again. Starfy and Moe advance to [[Stranded Whale]].<br /> <br /> Starfy and Moe decide to continue to help others on their way to Pufftop. Later in the quest, after Starfy and Moe clear the stage [[Sea of Ice]], Starfy finds an unknown demonic eel who came from the jar that Starfy knocked down before he fell into Lobber's Cave. He plans to submerge Starfy and Moe in the Deep Sea, and believes that the &quot;strange clam&quot; is unimportant and that Starfy is an annoyance.<br /> <br /> Later on their adventure, Starfy advances to the [[Undersea Ruins]]. An ammonite called [[Horun]] then tries to attack Starfy and Moe. It is revealed that Horun was attacked by a huge creature resembling Starfy created by the demonic eel called [[Doppel]]. Horun tried to confront Doppel, but was left injured. Once Horun realizes who Starfy really is, he helps him and Moe find Pufftop.<br /> <br /> Later, Starfy meets Old Man Lobber again, who asks Starfy if he can locate a legendary book called the [[Yogensho]] for him, which according to legend is said to be found in the temple. The two times that Starfy attempts to obtain the book, it disappears and he is blown away by the demonic eel. Old Man Lobber asks Starfy if he found the Yogensho, to which Starfy explains what happened. When Old Man Lobber says that Moe has gone missing, the demonic eel appears again and blows both Starfy and Old Man Lobber away.<br /> <br /> When Starfy reunites with Old Man Lobber, he asks if Starfy arrived safely and if he can look for Moe. Moe has been kidnapped by a sea otter known as [[Rarako]]. When Starfy finds Rarako, Rarako thanks him for his 'food' and gives Starfy what he was looking for — the Yogensho. Moe eventually escapes and Old Man Lobber finally gets to read the book. Moe is excited regarding the legends of the Yogensho, though it seems that he spoke too soon as the demonic eel appears to blow Starfy, Moe and Old Man Lobber away.<br /> <br /> Starfy and Moe are taken away to the boss room with Doppel. The demonic eel brings Doppel to his full power and vanishes. After Starfy defeats Doppel, the demonic eel leaves behind the jar that Starfy dropped from Pufftop Palace and the Yogensho. Starfy, Moe and Old Man Lobber advance to the [[Sea of Sky]] that leads to Pufftop and Old Man Lobber begins to read the Yogensho. The Yogensho reveals that the demonic eel's name is [[Ogura]]. It prophesied correctly that a large storm never seen before would hit the sea and the demon Ogura would go on a rampage until a hero appears to hunt down Ogura's minions one after the other.<br /> <br /> Ogura leaves three bosses for Starfy to battle before he advances to Pufftop. Starfy, Moe and Old Man Lobber's main objective now is to defeat Ogura and bring peace back to Pufftop.<br /> {{endspoiler}}<br /> <br /> ==Stages==<br /> *[[Lobber's Cave]]<br /> *[[Coral Reef]]<br /> *[[Stranded Whale]]<br /> *[[Sea of Ice]]<br /> *[[Deep Sea]]<br /> *[[Sunken Ship]]<br /> *[[Undersea Temple]]<br /> *[[Sea of Sky]]<br /> *[[Pufftop]]<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> <br /> ===Starfy===<br /> {{main|Starfy}}<br /> <br /> The prince of a kingdom high above the sky resting on the clouds, known as [[Pufftop]].

The [[Nintendo Official Guidebook]]s use different descriptions, however. <br /> <br /> Some characters [[Rare Enemies|and enemies]] are rare and can only be encountered after beating the game for the first time.

Her fins become spiky when she gets angry.<br /> <br /> ==In ''Densetsu no Starfy 3''==<br /> During the story, Hirara was inside [[Gabun]] and was giving him a tummy ache. Moe asks what's wrong, which is when her spiked fins return to normal as she begins to cry. Moe apologizes (due to her being a cute girl) and once again asks what's wrong. Hirara spikes up again, exclaiming that her heart was broken by [[Hirao]], whom she liked but got married to [[Hirarin]]. Moe says that it's a good thing she didn't get married to a stupid guy like Hirao, and that a good guy like him is right here. Hirara then attacks Moe, telling him to not say stupid things. She then reveals that she was spending her time inside Gabun to get over her heartbreak, claiming &quot;no one could hurt her here&quot;. Starly tells her that while she's avoiding people hurting her, she is hurting Gabun in the process, but Hirara doesn't care (and hurts Moe while saying so). Starly then uses an ace up her sleeve, telling Starfy to tickle Gabun, causing him to spit all four of them out. Once outside of Gabun, he says that his stomachache is finally gone and gives Starfy the [[Hinokkio|Hinocchio]] as thanks. Hirara takes offense to Gabun saying that she was rampaging around in his belly, but then notices how big Gabun is, believing that his size equates to caliber (see definition 2 of Utsuwa/うつわ '''[https://ejje.weblio.jp/content/amp/%E3%81%86%E3%81%A4%E3%82%8F/ here]'''). She decides for herself that Gabun is the person she's destined to be with, even though Gabun thinks she's being a bit too forward.<br /> <br /> After completing the main scenario of 7-2, if Starfy talks to Hirara, she tells Gabun to take her on a date to go shopping, but Gabun says he can't, as he cannot move. In post game, she says nothing, simply swooning over Gabun who is uncomfortable in this situation.<br /> <br /> ==In the [[Densetsu no Starfy (Yumiko Sudō)|manga (Yumiko Sudō)]]==<br /> {{spoiler}}<br /> Hirara appears in the sixth chapter of volume 2, &quot;[[DSM14|I Want to Appear in the Movies Too Fii!]]&quot;. She hosts auditions for the [[Cinema and haunted house|Haunted House]] in front of the [[Cinema and haunted house|Cinema]] (though Starfy and Moe think it's for a movie until the end). Many actors show up, but Hirara scares most of them away. She tells the remaining actors that they need someone brave. The remaining actors had to compete in a fighting competition and a speech test.<br /> {{endspoiler}}<br /> <br /> ==Name Origin==<br /> *Hirara's name most likely comes from Hirao (ヒラオ) and Hirarin's (ヒラリン) names, as well as Iraira (いらいら, To get irritated or annoyed), referencing her short temper.<br /> &lt;gallery position=&quot;left&quot; widths=&quot;100&quot;&gt;<br /> File:Hirara1.PNG‎|&lt;center&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:white;&quot;&gt;''Hirara's sprite''&lt;/span&gt;<br /> File:Hirara.PNG‎|&lt;center&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:white;&quot;&gt;''Spiky finned Hirara''&lt;/span&gt;<br /> &lt;/gallery&gt;<br /> {{clr}}<br /> {{TLS3Navbox}}<br /> {{MangaNavbox}}<br /> [[Category:Characters]]<br /> [[Category:Fishes]]<br /> [[Category:Manga]]</div>
