I'm lucky I have completed save files for two of my obscure Japanese games. But Kururin Paradise is so hard! Am I going to have to use my 1/2 complete save file with an emulator, and do a tool-assisted completion just to unlock the credits?

Don't worry, found a Tool Assisted Speedrun and just used that. Duh! But I now know that the credits are also in Japanese. I didn't ask for this.

Couldn't you just browse the game data for the credits, or grab a save that's near the end?

Silly king, that's what the TAS is for. But apparently the credits are in Japaneselish and therefore undecipherable. How do you expect us to read your blogs when you couldn't even read far enough to obtain that information?

@LordAndrew:

I read far enough. I just didn't know that TASes were a thing you could send to other people.

@Video_Game_King: Well, they are. Either as emulator recordings that capture every keypress per frame, or as encoded videos of those recordings posted on sites like YouTube and Nico Nico Douga.

Are you new to the internet or something?

@LordAndrew:

It simply never occurred to me that people would actually trade what they'd programmed. I knew that they were programmed, though. Otherwise, this dude would have to snort enough cocaine to suffocate the nose goblins pestering him night and day.
