KODAI DJINNS™
KODAI: Ancient
DJINNS: Powerful spirits that carry animal
totems
The KODAI DJINNS™ are magical creatures
formed from the great battle of three thousand
years between TENSHI (angel) and AKUMA
(oni). The battle was for the fate of the
Universe, but with the two being so evenly
matched, there could be no winner. In the
destruction of their battle, the galaxies were
formed. The great battle created Earth and
from this battle the elements were formed as
their slashing blades created the wind. The
sparks of their swords created the fire and lit
the core of the planet to make it warm. The
broken pieces of their armor and weapons
created the rocks and mountains and their
blood, sweat and tears formed the seas.
Their parents could no longer sit idly by and
watch this mayhem. OWARI (Father=End)
and HAZIAOME (Mother=Beginning) tried to
plead with them to stop, but they would not,
so they cast them both down into the Earth.
The two were bound in CRYSTAL. But as they
were being bound they both made one last
attempt to escape but the crystals absorbed
their power and exploded up through the
Earth, scattering much of their strength across
the planet. Imprisoned there, they would be
left to ponder the errors of their ways.
The shards of crystal became small gems. Each
one had the life of an animal plus a portion of
TENSHI and AKUMA’s power. These gems are
known as KODAI-JEMS, and only humans can
hold them because they are the descendants
of TENSHI and AKUMA. Whenever a person
touches a KODAI-JEM they take on the
personality of either TENSHI or AKUMA,
whichever they are most related to.
Alas over countless years TENSHI came to
realize that they were both part of something
bigger than themselves and tried to reach out
to AKUMA, but AKUMA’s feelings for TENSHI
only got worse.
They both realized that their spirits could
reach out to the KODAI-JEMS and direct them
into the hands of those that might help them.
They both set out to recruit people who would
help them on their quest to free themselves.
If AKUMA is released first it will signal the
end of the world.
The KODAI-JEMS come in four main shapes,
each representing the elements.
FIRE WATER WIND EARTH

PHOENIX and the DEMON. One represents
life, the other death.

HELPFUL HINTS
When you throw the yo-yo, you will see a light come on.This is
an indication of the charge.The brighter it shines, the bigger the
charge.To get the most powerful charge, throw your yo-yo with
as many sudden spinning and stopping motions as possible.
If you leave the KODAI DJINNS™ alone for too long without
throwing the yo-yo to extend its lifespan, it will eventually
expire and your monster will change back to an infant.When
this happens, you can throw the yo-yo to wake up another
KODAI DJINNS™ monster, however, all the previous scores
will be lost.To prevent your KODAI DJINNS™ monster from
disappearing, you can put it into hibernation.
In most cases, the light on your yo-yo will be RED, GREEN or
YELLOW. However, if the light on your yo-yo is BLUE, you are
lucky. You have the SUPER KODAI DJINNS™™ yo-yo! Your
KODAI DJINNS™™ monster is more powerful than the regular
ones. It is ready to fight at birth and capable of meeting any
challenge immediately.
STARTING UP – AWAKE THE MONSTER WITHIN
1. Remove the pull-tape to turn on the power.You can also press
the RESET button next to the LCD screen to restart.
Pull-tape
Reset Button
2. The logo KODAI DJINNS™ will begin scrolling across the LCD
screen continuously...
Now it’s time to activate your Digital Warrior. In order to do
this, you will need to jolt it awake. Begin yo-yoing (any standard
technique should do the trick) and continue to do so until you’ve
generated enough electric power to awaken your infant monster.
You’ll know your KODAI DJINNS™ warrior is ready for action
when your yo-yo shines brightly.
Note: The KODAI DJINNS™ infant has only a 2 hour lifespan.
If this time expires, it will disappear and you will have to start all
over again.
THE INFANT MONSTER
After a few yo-yos, the KODAI DJINNS™ logo will explode and
out comes the KODAI DJINNS™ infant monster.
The infant monster will bounce up and down, moving back and
forth across the screen. Initially it bounces slowly, but moves
faster as you continue to yo-yo.Your infant monster thrives on
electric power, so throw your yo-yo fast and hard.When it has
generated enough electric power from the generator, it will
transform into a KODAI DJINNS™ adult.
THE KODAI DJINNS™ MONSTERS
After an explosion, one of the 12 KODAI DJINNS™ adult
monsters will appear on your LCD screen.
It will begin walking across the screen, awaiting your command.
The adult monster has an initial lifespan of 24 hours.To extend
the life of the adult monster, you must yo-yo from time to time
while the monster is walking across the screen.Your monster’s
lifespan can be checked in the Status Report Menu.When there is
only 1 hour of life left, your monster will become stationary and
its image will begin to flash.This is your last chance to throw the
yo-yo or your adult monster will change back into an infant again.

will become.You can either throw the yo-yo for the full 30
seconds or you can stop any time by pressing the DOWN key. If

monster. If it is weak, the firewall will collapse and your monster
will be hit and lose energy. In Round 2, it’s your turn to strike

throwing the yo-yo.Throw the yo-yo as you did before when

built-in Wireless Port.Your monster will draw upon all the energy
collected from the scores you’ve accumulated in games 1-6.

supreme showdown, you must have at least 10 points in each of
the previous 6 games. If you see a STOP sign, it means that you
are not qualified.You will need to accumulate more points. Go
back to Games 1 through 6 and play to increase your scores.

screen, throw the yo-yo hard so that the light comes on brightly.

yo-yo harder and faster with all your might.This is your last
chance! You can stop any time before 30 seconds expires or you
can throw for the full 30 seconds.When you are done, place the
