Before you start

💿 The patch

Apply the English patch to a clean, unheadered Japanese ROM of Granhistoria: Genshi Sekaiki (Super Famicom, Banpresto 1995, Rev 1). The ROM must match CRC32 27EB2CF0 before patching.

🏷️ Names in this guide

Every name is written as it appears in the English patch: Tor, Lou, Tand, the World Chronicle, Za and Ge, Nel. Item names match the menus; when a scene calls an item something slightly different, both names are given (Auto Gun = “Automatic Gun”).

📜 Where the information comes from

Chest contents, map exits and history entries were read from the game’s data; scenes, choices and NPC hints come from the full script we translated. Boss HP figures are marked public guides: they come from Japanese fan guides and the official guidebook, not from our own measurements.

🗺️ The maps

The maps were stitched from the game itself. Letters A, B, C… are treasure chests, green numbers are exits (the legend says where they lead), white squares are shops: I inn, S general store, T tavern, W weapons, G guns, P pub, R restaurant. People move around with the story, so they are described in the steps rather than pinned. In the patched game you can also press SELECT in any dungeon for an in-game map.

How the game works

Twenty years, one body at a time. You are a soul sent into Gran by the World Chronicle and the Red Orb. The story jumps forward a year at a time from 805 to 825. Each year has a crisis that the Chronicle says will push Gran toward ruin. Change it, and the history entry changes with it.
The World Chronicle is in the field menu under Chronicle: History lists what has happened (and what will happen) year by year; People describes everyone you have met, and those descriptions change too. See the World Chronicle Guide.
Za and Ge are the two powers of Gran: Za, the god of the temples and angels; Ge, the gods of nature and creatures. Party members use Za skills, Ge skills or both (the skill menu has a Za / Ge choice). What your hero can use changes with the story: Ge power in 805, Za power in 817, both from 818.
Party members come and go. Almost everyone joins only for one episode. Public guides report that members who leave take what they wear with them, and that rejoining members come back with default equipment: take gear off before someone is about to leave.
Keep inventory slots free. Several key items (Angel Bell, Soul Orb, seeds, the large orb, Demon Vajra) and gifts (Bomb Gun, armory gifts) have a “You can’t carry any more” message.
Stuck? Talk to Alruna in the royal capital’s Hall of the Second Coming: she tells you what to do next.

YEAR 805 · CHAPTER 01

Irai: the night before the wedding

📍 Irai

A young man of Irai named Tor is killed by the Heretic Bandits the night before he marries Lou. The World Chronicle and the Red Orb bring you, a soul from outside this world, into Tor’s body. You have twenty years, until 825, to rewrite the history of the Gran continent before it ends in ruin.

⏳ Last chances in this chapter

Nothing in Irai can be lost yet. Explore freely: the village returns later in the story.

Walkthrough

MainThe opening plays at the Irai graveyard: Tor and Lou find a crest of Ge dropped by the bandits, the bandits come back for it and Tor is struck down. The World Chronicle explains your task and sends you into Tor’s body. Before that, the Chronicle tells you to send Lou home first, and the Time-Crossing Mizuchi is named as your escort. Then enter your name. Remember it: much later the game uses this first name for someone else, and you will not be allowed to pick it again.
MainTalk to Lou in the village. If you ask, she says the priest’s house is to the right of the temple (marker 1 on the Irai map).
MainVisit the Priest of Za’s House (marker 1) and ask about tomorrow’s wedding. He tells you not to worry and to go home. The temple itself (marker 3) is closed until the ceremony.
TipIrai has an Inn (I) and a General Store (S: one counter sells weapons, the other items). You start at level 1 with 100 Nel and one Earth Pill (public guides). Lou’s House (2), the Tavern (T) and the houses have only small talk now.
MainGo home to Tor’s House (marker 5, south-east) and sleep. On the wedding morning everyone sends you to the priest. In the Altar Room of Za the Heretic Bandits (Gainaster and Tand) storm the ceremony looking for a relic called the False Star. Tand takes Lou hostage and you are killed.
MainThe World Chronicle tells you that you chose wrongly and turns time back once, to the night before. This time you won’t be killed, but the attack on Irai still has to be stopped. The bandits’ hideout lies beyond the Bandit Forest, and tonight they are all out scouting.
MainLeave Irai by the south exit (marker 7) to the world map and walk to the Bandit Forest.
