That's weird, about the credits. Maybe they're different copies somehow? Oh well.

I don't think that Hudson intended Baguro to be the same character as Bagura, at least not by the time he appears in Panic Bomber World under the same name. Bagura had already appeared in Bomberman '94 and Super Bomberman 3 by that time. Baguro is distinctly different from Bagura not necessarily in his size and shape, but in the fact that he has no beard, whereas both aforementioned versions of Bagura had a beard... Anyway, that's just what I think. Who knows.

I know, I know, I need to start translating those guides you scanned... I've just been really busy with other things. But, here's what it says about Baguro...

なかなか. 積むスピ-ドも速い.
Appears in the final stage of Panic Bomber. His strength is said to be in fighting games, which he loves. Also, his stacking speed is fast.

大連鎖はあまりしない.
Quickly clears chains of 3 or more, a formidable enemy. He does not make large chains often.

アイテムがあればいいけ

うに確実に消して行こう.
[I'm really not sure what this says, exactly. It seems to say something about using items and how that will usually be of help to defeat him.]

First, you may be wondering about the whole "fighting game" or "beat-em-up game" thing. All the Panic Bomber World characters have one of those little things about them when they appear in the game (the lower text box, name is on top and "fact" is on bottom). Anyway, nothing about his origins here.

Here's Bagura's "fact" from the in-game text, though:

格闘ゲ-ムがとくい
Good at fighting games

OFF-TOPIC:
Click! Because I don't think anybody really saw this... All but one of the views are my own. Maybe the sub-forum icons should be more noticable?...
