It would be nice if I could use telepathy and not have to talk. :) I talk really softly usually because it makes me nervous to raise my voice, but sometimes I do anyway because reasons. u_u

Areas
The game has 7 areas, but area 7 is only accessible by entering 2nd loop. 2nd loop is accessible by completing the first 6 areas on 1 credit and fulfilling one of the following requirements:
Hachi the giant mechanical bee
Loses at most 2 fighters (lives).
Depending on the fighter used, have a maximum hit count of at least the following:
Type A: 270 hits
Type B: 300 hits
Type C: 330 hits
Score at least 50 million points at the end of the area 6.
Collect all 13 bees in four of the six areas.
The second loop has the same areas, enemy patterns, and bosses as the first loop, but the amount of bullets the enemies fire is greatly increased. Destroying the area 6 boss in the second loop unlocks a secret area where you fight the trademark boss of the series, the giant mechanical bee Hachi (蜂; 'bee'). When you defeat it, you will then fight Hibachi(火蜂; 'fire bee'), true final boss in DoDonPachi. If it is defeated then the best ending is achieved.

Endings
Should a player fail to meet the requirements for second loop access, he/she is simply congratulated by the DonPachi Corps commander for his bravery in battle. No credits will be presented to the player for finishing the game this way.
Should the requirements be met, the commander reveals, in a shocking twist, that the mechanized aliens were in fact the pilot's own comrades (the International version of the game renders this as a "lost fleet" legendary among cadets) trying to actually stop him/her, being aware of the commander's nefarious scheme revealed in the true and final ending. Having served its purpose, the commander's advanced fleet is ordered to annihilate the pilot, and on this premise the second loop of the game begins.
If the player completes the game once again, this time without any kind of requirement except the annihilation of the ultimate fighting machine Hibachi, in the true ending the pilot realizes that the DonPachi's true goal was to annihilate the human race, owing to its deranged commander's idea that mankind was a flawed creation to be eradicated from existence. Ironically, the existing problems of overpopulation, environmental pollution, and arms races were solved by this one-man war. The staff credits appear afterwards.

Death Label
Death Label was included with the PS2 port of Dai-Ou-Jou. Death Label sets the player against each of the game's bosses in order, with maximum power at all times and a full stock of hypers provided before each fight. Death Label's difficulty is roughly equivalent to that of the normal game's second loop, with a number of alterations made to the bosses and their attack pattern.[citation needed] The most notable change is made at the end of Death Label, where the player fights two versions of the final boss simultaneously. According to top players, this is the hardest iteration in the DoDonPachi series taking 7 years (from 2003 until 9/18/2010) to clear.[4][5]

Ending
After clearing the game's Ura loop, the entirety of the plot is revealed: one of the Dolls, EXY, interfaced with the enemy computer network at the end of DaiOuJou, managing to shut it down but succumbing to madness soon thereafter. Overwhelmed by the sea of new information, she turned against her human pilot, killing him and herself and becoming the parasitic virtual entity detected by DonPachi HQ; still following her original programming, she created the Element Daughters and the robotic army featured in the game in a desperate attempt to destroy the installation that would start the chain of events leading to the Blissful Death Wars - presumably, DonPachi Corps HQ itself at the time of the elite squadron's birth. Exploiting their deranged plan for salvation, Colonel Longhener manipulated the Element Dolls/Daughters into destroying order and civilization, convinced of its intrinsic imperfection and aiming towards rebuilding it according to his idea of flawlessness (an attempt already foiled centuries before by the first DonPachi Squadron). Said ambitions come to an abrupt halt with the destruction of the ultimate fighting machine Hibachi.
As the pilot jumps back to the future he comes to finally realize how, instead of preventing the bloody future depicted in the series, EXY Next actually triggered it: he/she is forced to watch, powerless, as Longhener is appointed as the commanding officer of the DonPachi Corps with the rank of General, the Daughters standing beside him - the date being just a few years before the start of the Blissful Death Wars. Everything had been for nothing.

This is your daily reminder that Andrew Hussie is not racist.
I wonder what caused people to think he was in the first place...?
People assumed that the CAUCASIAN thing for trickster mode meant that every human in Homestuck was white. Or something.
So having an all white cast makes someone racist?
It does not make one racist per se, but it is quite unfortunate in implication unless the work is set in a place where there logically would not be nonwhites at all, say for instance, medieval Ireland (though there have been African populations in Britain since Roman days, but that's not common knowledge).
Well, so have I, but the majority of the fans aren't. At least, they're not snobs about internet criticism.
Maybe not the majority that you interact with, but of all the people I know who are fans of the series (openly anyway), they pretty much all are.
Just a few days ago a bunch of people were telling Ohmwrecker on twitter that him not liking Rogue Legacy was biased and unprofessional. Based on prior twitter interactions, I know for a fact that a few of said people were EC fans.
Granted, I only know like, a half dozen EC fans, but I also have no idea how popular the show actually is.

as is "crooning"
...I hate whispering in real life too, now that I think about it
how odd
Assassin poems, Poems that shoot
guns. Poems that wrestle cops into alleys
and take their weapons leaving them dead
It's mostly just one of the two guys saying "wait till you see my duck" over and over.
There's a typo in that sentence but it was too good to get rid of.

They're doing it rather poorly (though I've heard good things about the Mackelmore song)

I think it's more that he said that and then seemed to decide that making everyone white to piss off tumblr was better.
Hussie has never struck me as the most logical person in the world, though I guess I can't say that with authority.
