Does anyone know what the difference between a Chikako and a Glitter is? All I know is that Glitter only appear in hard mode replacing Chikakos. Is it a more powerful version, or what?Knife (talk) 20:58, 7 March 2007 (EST)
- I wouldn't know. Is ther ANY difference, even in looks?
3D, Chikako has a face. Ick.
- They're probably the exact same thing, considering that the manual lists Chikako as "Chikako (Glitter)". It might even be a rare instance of a translated name, with the Japanese one left behind... --YellowYoshi398 21:07, 7 March 2007 (EST)
I can't see the Chikako's face while I playing game Music Video 123 (talk) 14:03, 15 April 2017 (EST)
- Nope, it's very small ;)
Glitter[edit]
