Yo-Jin-Bo - The Bodyguards (PC)
A fabulous new interactive novel game for Windows and Macintosh, fully translated to English! Yo-jin-bo ("The Bodyguards") is set in feudal Japan where the Mochizuki clan is wracked by a war of succession, and the clan princess -- a tomboy notorious for her misbehavior -- is the first target for assassination. The central storyline of Yo-jin-bo involves the princess's three eccentric bodyguards' attempts to save her from the sinister machinations of her would-be assassins. In the game you play the character of Sayori, a more-or-less ordinary high school student who is spending her summer vacation helping at an archaeological excavation. One day in the ruins, you happen to notice something shining half-buried in the mud. When you look more closely, you realize it is a pendant, and you pick it up . . . And thus the story begins.
That night, a girl appears to you in a dream, begging you to save her. She is Hatsuhime, princess of the Mochizuki clan, and she was murdered a hundred and fifty years ago. The pendant that you found is the only thing she left behind. The next morning, you wake up in a place you have never been before - a place that still feels strangely familiar. You are living in Hatsuhime's time, in Hatsuhime's castle, in Hatsuhime's body, and it is your job to save her from her tragic destiny. It seems impossible - until you meet a group of wandering samurai...
In Japan the Yo-jin-bo game has inspired two drama CDs, two music CDs and a graphic novel adaptation. The three bodyguards are voiced by some of Japan's top voice talent including Hiroki Takashi (Hunter x Hunter), Hideo Ishikawa (Bleach, Kingdom Hearts), and Masakuzu Morita (Gundam Seed Destiny).In Japan the Yo-jin-bo game has inspired two drama CDs, two music CDs and a graphic novel adaptation.

is it possible for you to reupload part 2, all the other parts work, but that one part. i've downloaded it many times thinking maybe it was just that the file didn't completely download or something like that.
or send it to me via email:
w.i.n.n.s.t.e.r@hotmail.com
one more thing, thank you so much for these links, i've been searching EVERYWHERE! this site is very resourceful!
Seems fine to me, try deleting the unfinished file and doing it. I know Kite who posts anime here even downloaded and played it.
Thanks for sharing!! I just tried downloading them all, and yea, something's wrong with Part 2 like the previous user... But it can be extracted all at once if I use WinRar like how you said in FAQ... ^^ But when I try mounting the image file on Daemon, they tell me the image file is not accessible...
I'm really sorry to trouble you again, and I know others can use it, I was wondering what's wrong with mine. Maybe I did something wrong and I hope you can help me out!
Well I downloaded it last night (I delete my uploads once I finish uploading them) and I think I know where you went wrong.
I downloaded all the files to my laptop last night. Extracted them bit ago using 7 zp (does not matter though if use winrar) then I actiavted daemon (daemon lite build 4.30 but I doubt it matters)
Okay so when you go to choose the disc image in the file, select all the files and mount the bin file *not* the cue then the game will auto load up the installer. Should this not happen, navigate to your mounted virtual drive, open it and do it yourself. The installer never asked which drive I wanted to install to, it just installed on the vista one...go figure.
I think you have to keep the game mounted to play btw, I have not tested. Should for some reason it not mount. Open the bin file with 7 zip and exyract the contents and run the installer you just extracted and it will install.
This was done on my laptop 1.73ghz dual core 1gb ram, only an motherbaord intergrated gfx card on vista. You never said what o/s you are using but I could test it on xp or ubuntu I guess.
Hope that helps you out.
Oh wow, thanks! Really, really thanks! It helped! Thank you, now I know how to go about doing them. =) Thank you for replying, and sorry for the trouble ><
And oh yea, hope to see more otome games like this. =) Thanks a lot for uploading them!
i have been looking for this game for so long XD finally found ur site! thx! using megaupload is so much easier for me to load the game. Thanks! Love this site XD
Ok, so I downloaded all 8 parts, got Daemon Tools Lite (4.30.3), and I can extract using WinRaR and 7-zip. I've tried extracting, but all that comes up is a bin file with a size of 778,917 KB and Image Files of 1 KB, but when I look into the 8 parts they say the same thing. How do I know if it worked? Because when I right click on Daemon and click on Virtual CD/DVD thing that leads to what Device I want to use I select "Mount image" and go into my Yo-Jin-Bo folder. When there all that shows up is the 1 KB image files and then it says "Unable to mount image. File not accessible."
What can I do to fix this problem?
And I'm using Windows XP.
Thank you! I am so grateful for your website <3 thank you thank you
Thank you soooooooo much for the dl links.
I tried to dl the game in torrents, but all torrent links died a long time ago.
Thank you again. : )
thank you soo muchh!
thanks \^______^/
Many thanks!! ^^
I got a lil problem... Mind helping? ^_^;
This is what I did:
1. Download the files
2. Extracted part 1
3. Used Deamon Tools on the bin file
4. Tried to install the game but it kept say:
Error 1305.Error reading from file J:\programfiles\TWOFIVE blablabla... during the installation.
So what did I do wrong?! \(>~<)/
Please help me! m(;_;)m
It's great! I love it!
... But! >__<
For some reason... Whenever I try to either get Yo or Mon-Mon... For some reason, I die either way what I do! Please answer! Even tho' I ain't a member, please answer still, I'll check this site one time and again. ^^
And if someone else has problems with this, can you tell me if you figured it out? :D
What did you die? Sometime there might be a time where you need to re-play again cause the problem probably lies somewhere back then
No matter! :D I fixed it! ;)
Thanks tho' type-moon01!
omg thank you so much for the links! XD
I can't save the game. I clicked a folder in "save" but it didn't work.
Out of curiosity, is this copyrighted material? I'm at college and they don't particularly care for the download of copyrighted material on their network, so I'm not sure if I'm going to get in trouble for this or not. D:
The game is copyrighted in Japan, I do not think there is a western publisher anymore.
For those who are having trouble installing it, I am not sure what your problem is. It has been tested, you could either mount the other file, try a different program or burn it to disc.
How do you play it? Do you need to download a file like this daemo you mentioned? Can you tell me how do you get that please?
I have the same problem as Mirrochan, I save the game and it seems ok, but when I restart my computer there aren't saved files! someone knows how to fix this?
Thank you for uploading this! It took FOREVER to figure out how to do it, (Cause I'm New at this stuff and Stupid... Bad mix) but I finally got it and it's uploading. Winrar and Daemon tools worked great. Thank you! XD
I'm really grateful for the upload! I had downloaded another version through a torrent and I guess it was the Japanese version or something - it seemed to be impossible to get it to work (I think I couldn't even click the install button to get things going, it just wouldn't respond) and I didn't have the Windows install disk around so I couldn't change the computer to Japanese, either (if that had caused the problem somehow). So to find this and have it work...wow, I'd already basically given up on it so it's like a dream come true :D
Thank you for this! It was awesome~! Do you know of any other otome games?
Can someone help me with the steps after extracting all 8 files? I've downloaded Daemon, but I don't know what to do. Thank you.
@Alex: click at the "Virtual CD/DVD-ROM -> Device.... -> mount image -> in "Files of type", select "all files" and select "yojinbo" (BIN file)
P/S: ugh...sry for my bad english TT__TT
Thank you so much! The torrents I've tried had zero seeds!!!
thank you so much <3
and thanks to people who posted how-to-install!
hi I'm having trouble, when I extract the files I only get the image files and i don't have a bin file XD i don't know hwat's wrong...can someone help me?
Thanks incredibly!! This will be my first full pc otome games. I tried playing another one before (which I am grateful for trying out), but even with a translation program, the English was so jumbled that I spent more time trying to make sense of the translations instead of enjoying the game. I do hope Japanese game makers will recognize that there is a growing demand for such games in International market for all console systems.
I can't do this...
I extract the bin files and try opening them with Daemon, but it says that the file contains no data...
I have never done anything like this, so I really don't know what am I doing wrong..
(about that comment just above this one)
never mind, i got it lol
thnx a lot for this!!
err, after the installation, a HD DVD-ROM Drive (F:) thing remains where the devices with removable storage are, in the computer thing.. but ehmm, I have no idea pf how to get rid of it... do u know how?
Ita chan- that won't disapear unless you un-mount the file from deamon tools. Until then, it'll continue to be there. It doesn't do any real harm though.
I got stuck in 1 area here..."the fork on the road" (i think) - was the name of the chapter. No matter what i choose, we die...I wonder if i have to redo from the beginning? >.<
Umm well first of all thank you for doing this for those like me, who really can't afford this.
Anyways there is no problem with the downloading or anything. It's just that I'm having problem with playing it. I have an WinRar but I don't know how to play it. It keeps telling me I need a certain program. If anyone knows what to do please post a comment and I can check it. Thank you!
Download 7-zip. Uncompress. Mount with daemon or burn to CD. Install, done. For specific gameplay stuff you are better conversing with each other.
Would somebody help me, please?
I downloaded all of the files to one folder. I then extracted them, which resulted in another folder named yojinbo, containing yet ANOTHER folder that says yojinbo, a file called yojinbo.bin, and a CUE image file named yojinbo.
After that, it was my first time using DAEMON tools Net Server. I went to File, scrolled down to Add Images..., selected All Files from the drop-down menu, and opened the yojinbo.bin file. After that, I right clicked the file and selected Mount Image, which resulted in it turning into a cute little sakura blossom named yojinbo(2).
I know that I should install it next...but I have no idea how. I don’t think I’ve done anything wrong, but I wrote everything down just in case.
Annie~
From there, you can click on the cherry blossom, and a window should appear with the files that the .Bin file contained, and click on the icon of the computer with a box titled Setup. From there it should start loading the install wizard.
OR you can go to your computer and Double click on Drive: F and the setup should appear.
Wah! I have a couple of questions and I'd really appreciate it if somebody would help me out.
1. I downloaded all 8 parts, but they all seem to have the same things: yojinbo.bin and a CUE file. Is that supposed to happen?
2. I extracted them, and installed Daemon Tools Lite. And now, I'm a bit embarrassed to say, I don't really know where to go from here. I can't seem to do the same thing as Annie there (click File, Add Images) ... maybe that's because I have a different Windows program, Windows 7.
Sigh, I'm really sorry for troubling you guys, but if you could help me with this, that would make my entire day.
AHH! Never mind! I've figured it out and I'm installing it right now... Thank you to Mirika!
Let's hope it works... I'm going to open the program right now.
IT WORKS! Thank you so much for uploading this!
Thank you, Moonshine! You’re a lifesaver. :) I was almost in tears trying to get it to work.
It really is a pretty fun game, albeit sillier than I thought it would be. I especially love all the otaku culture references.
Okay, so I need help...
1)I have windows 7
2)I downloaded everything, and downloaded DAEMON tools lite
3)When I try to mount to CUE file, it says "Unable to mount. File not accessible."
What do I do? I'm so frustrated with this whole thing I wanna scream!
Instead of mounting the .cue file, mount the .bin file. To do so, click the play button to mount the virtual disk and locate the folder where the .cue file is in. Then look down below the words, "file name", to see the words, "Files of types". Click the box next to that and change it from all supported images to all files. Now the .bin should pop up and select it and click open.
Did that make sense? Sorry for starting from the beginning, but I find it easier to make it more understandable for the person who asked if I do it that way.
Thank you so much moon shine! It works perfectly now, and the game is so fun!
I did everything and even got the cute sakura blossom but when I click on it, nothing happens. I'm using DAEMON Tools Net Agent and all that shows up when I click on the flower is a window called "Info Panel" appears on the left and theres nothing about files contained within the .bin and nothing about setup.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
How come I can't burn the CD? It's new and hasn't been used yet. I have about 700 MB still.
oh nvm I see the problem, it need 751 mb but will a dvd with a 4.3 gb work?
Thank u so much (^o^)
Hi everyone, um, I am completely new at this and a complete fail at computers so I have no idea what Im doing. I downloaded all the files and now they are sitting on my computer and I have no idea where to go from here. Please help? -sorry for my fail-ness-
CJ-
You need to download and install WinRar or 7zip (I recommend Winrar) and then the same with Daemon tool.
After you've done that, take part 1 and extract it with winrar or 7zip it should extract it and ask for part 2, give the file location, it extracts, part 3, etc. until all the parts are extracted and you should have a .bin and .cue file.
Then go to daemon tools. To mount the files, click the play button to mount the virtual disk and locate the folder where the .cue file is in. Then look down below the words, "file name", to see the words, "Files of types". Click the box next to that and change it from all supported images to all files. Now the .bin should pop up and select it and click open.
Daemon Tools will mount it and then it will show a cherry blossom.
From there, you can click on the cherry blossom, and a window should appear with the files that the .Bin file contained, and click on the icon of the computer with a box titled Setup. From there it should start loading the install wizard.
OR you can go to your computer and Double click on Drive: F and the setup should appear.
(Sorry, I'm in a rush so it was basically a composition of my previous posts and not much details. Hope this helps...)
Yup, that helped :) Thank you so much!!
the part 2 is inavalable could you fix it please? :3
onto ni arigato :3

Have fun and thanks again^^

The download worked and everything but I always get stuck on the chapter "A Fork In The Road" I tried all the anwers but I still die. Can anyone give me some advice.
Nevermind I also figured it out. I'm srry. Thanks for anyone who looked at my coment thought. ^_^
i extracted with 7 zip and i used daemon tools lite. but when i try to mount it, they can't find the .bin but they find the cue.
Do i have to join these parts using HJ split? I don't really know because i haven't finished downloading it yet but that's what i did with the HNKNA.
I hope that someone could answer me...
I have a problem with getting Mon-Mon and Yo.
I tried 14 combinations with them and still in chapter "A Fork in the Road" I die no matter what.
What should I do?
Or maybe there's a bug or sth?
I need help, please! I downloaded all of the parts and I just downloaded Daemon, but I don't know what to do from now! Are the files supposed to be adobe? And is their a specific type of Daemon I need to download? Because I got Daemon 4.40.2....
@Lurexia - Extract the files, and you should get (according to the other comments. I haven't got the files myself, yet) a .bin file and one image file (I'm supposing it's a jpeg, or maybe an ISO?) Mounth that .bin file using your Daemon Tools software, and then install it from the virtual drive it shows you (it has a cherry blossom tree icon, I suppose).
Thank you for uploading this!! Been looking for this game forever. Also, thanks for the helpful comments and instructions. Got mine to work perfectly =)

Thank you, I like this game very much. It's so good.
Do you happen to have the soundtrack or know where I could find it?
I'm having issues at the fork in the road...i die despite any choice :<
If you're dying no matter what you've tried, what I suggest doing is starting from the beginning and following the FAQ. I had the same problem and that's what I ended up having to do.
thank you for the upload. i just have one problem though, when i tried extracting part 2 it says data error, file is broken. is there anyway around this?
