Most Italians are moustached men with nice hats who are either very short and dress in bright red suits, or taller, but like to wear bright green instead. After eating flowers, they gain the ability to shoot fireballs until they are injured in some way, or get to the end of the level. They are not, however, to be confused with the Irish, who all dress in green yet are even shorter than the Italians who prefer red, and have an affinity for gold and an unnatural obsession with rainbows. The Japanese, however, tend to have brightly colored, spiky hair, typically green, blue or fluorescent pink, huge eyes, no visible teeth no matter how hugely wide they open their mouths and often enough, they also possess cat ears and a tail. Like the Italians, they also can throw fireballs, but rather than after eating flowers, it is usually a result of getting fired up over the presence of a strong sword-wielding girl robot from outer space with huge breasts in a skimpy outfit nearby.
