How does one obtain the game?

I tried looking on archive.org and all I got was the bonus disc. Which one is the executable, and which one doesn't have viruses attached to it?

I am not sure about Archive.org without looking at the exact link however I can give the details on the physical disk and its contents since this was something that was actually gifted to me and I have the physical version.

  1. It only runs seems to windows XP or earlier, so I had to run it on a very old Japanese Prius computer. I tried on about 5 different pc's.

  2. The cover of the official disk is the title image used for this leaderboard.

  3. The disk name is LAKIBATO, its 192 MB

  4. It contains Direct X in its own folder, dotnetfix in its own folder, an AUTORUN, icon file, a setup application file, a Setup windows installer, and a 3kb note file on how to run the game.

  5. This is an extremely rare item, and a huge pain to get, I am happy to help in any other way I can over at the anime speedrun discord, for anyone interested over at https://discord.gg/k5wmNCSaVE

Hope that helped in some way. The Lucky Star Fighting game goes hard and we still need someone to clear the MinoturanZ mode!

Interesting. Can it be emulated on VirtualBox or on 10 with XP compatibility mode?

I imagine Virtual Box might work, but I was not able to get the compatibility mode to work on any of the laptops.

I'm trying that as soon as possible whenever I get the network drivers downloaded on virtualbox (it needs internet for net framework)

Done all the steps on VirtualBox. However, even with DirectX 9.0C, I get this error when starting the executable.

I don't know what to do at this point

It could just be the error with the pc your using which was the issue I had. the only work around I had was to run the game on an ancient pc.

The other option is ask other members how they ran the game.

I'm awaiting a response from some guy who did a gameplay of it on the same virtual machine

I was able to get it to work without a virtual machine (just on my Windows 10 laptop). I think the key thing was to change my system locale to Japanese before unzipping and installing it.
