The Space Adventure, developed and published by Hudson Soft Company, Ltd., released in 1991 and known in Japan as Cobra II: Densetsu no Otoko, is the second game dedicated to the adventures of the renegade space pirate Cobra. The game is based on the original manga and TV series by Buichi Terasawa.While waiting in a bar for his partner, Cobra encounters a beautiful bounty hunter named Jane. Very soon he realizes that the bounty Jane has been hunting for is his own head, for which the Galaxy Patrol has put quite a reward. But everything changes when Crystal Bowie, the head of the Pirate Guild and Cobra's archenemy, appears on the scene. Jane's father had apparently hidden a great treasure, encoding its location in tattoos on the backs of his triplet daughters. Crystal Bowie wants this treasure, and is going after Jane and her sisters. Cobra and Jane decide to join forces in order to find Jane's sisters and to undermine Crystal Bowie's plans.The game is a Japanese-style Adventure Game. The player advances in the game by choosing various commands ("Look", "Talk", etc.). There are a few places in the game where Cobra dies if the player makes a wrong decision. In the final location the player will also have to fight enemies in turn-based style. The game features a large number of animated cutscenes as well as voice-overs for many dialogues. | |

Dirty Coward | |
| The Space Adventure (Video Game) / int_1235f055 | comment |
Hammerbolt Joe was the villain of a short scenario in the original series. He appears as one of the antagonists here and gets to kill not just a bunch of minor characters but also Jane as well. He captures Lady and fights Cobra to the death head-on instead of being a Dirty Coward who tries to hide away while his rocket fists do the job for him. | |

Brainwashed and Crazy: Tarbeige infects his female victims with plant parasites to control their minds. He brainwashes Jane and makes her kill her own sister Catherine. Similarly to the manga, he also brainwashes a dancer and several female guards into attacking Cobra. | |

Aborted Arc | |
| The Space Adventure (Video Game) / int_23698fa8 | comment |
Aborted Arc: The previous game was a mostly direct adaptation of the manga's "Black Dragon King" saga, which establishes a horned warrior was the one who sliced Cobra's arm and taught him the fear of death. The "Six Heroes" arc later reveals Crystal Bowie was that man the whole time. This game does not properly adapt that part of the manga despite blending several minor elements of it with those of the "Royal Sisters" saga and having Crystal Bowie as the final boss. | |

Advancing Boss of Doom | |
| The Space Adventure (Video Game) / int_409d3c07 | comment |
Advancing Boss of Doom: Upon confronting Tarbeige and his powerful attack reflectors, Cobra is forced to retreat, access the morgue and hide on a coffin until the plant-man comes close enough. Moving into the same area as Tarbeige at any point before the morgue just brings up options to either keep running or shoot him — which results in Cobra blasting himself and resetting the scene. | |

| The Space Adventure (Video Game) / int_504e271f | comment |
But Thou Must!: The game is actually quite linear and doesn't give you many options. At several scenes the actions you can choose either all have the same result or are dismissed by Cobra as stupid. It's quite a surprise when a bad choice actually does result in a failure scene. | |

Adaptational Badass | |
| The Space Adventure (Video Game) / int_736d791f | comment |
Adaptational Badass: The game uses videogame mechanics to exaggerate how resilient Cobra is even by the standards of the manga, so in several fights he'll get knocked down over and over but stand back up at full HP every time. He also manages to easily destroy the Ultimate Weapon despite it turning into a spaceship, which was something he pulled all stops to prevent from happening in the original story. Hammerbolt Joe was the villain of a short scenario in the original series. He appears as one of the antagonists here and gets to kill not just a bunch of minor characters but also Jane as well. He captures Lady and fights Cobra to the death head-on instead of being a Dirty Coward who tries to hide away while his rocket fists do the job for him. | |

When the "rockers from hell" are found to have been killed by Hammerbolt Joe, the scantily-clad female in the group is prominently shown hanging upside down from the ceiling like a Jump Scare when Cobra looks around. | |

Dies Differently in Adaptation | |
| The Space Adventure (Video Game) / int_c181a846 | comment |
Dies Differently in Adaptation: Jane is killed by Hammerbolt Joe instead of Tarbeige or Crystal Bowie. Hammerbolt Joe fights Cobra in completely different circumstances than in the manga and is blown in half instead of being shot into outer space. | |

Big Bad Wannabe: Prison warden and slave trader Schultz desires the Ultimate Weapon against the orders of his superiors but loses Catherine to Cobra and is easily killed by Crystal Bowie afterwards. Vigaro is another villainous mastermind after the Ultimate Weapon and he eventually gets it, but he still goes down far easier than Crystal Bowie does. | |

Cigar Chomper: Cobra is rarely if ever seen without a cigar in the corner of his mouth. Some of them are gadgets in disguise, such as a few that can somehow be used as a healing item. | |

Adaptational Wimp: In the manga, Cobra could only prevent the Ultimate Weapon from evolving into an indestructive spaceship by killing its pilot Sandra from falling damage while the thing was still a tank. In the game, Vigaro quickly turns the Ultimate Weapon into a spaceship but Cobra easily destroys it with a single maxed out shot of the Psychogun. | |

Kiss of Death | |
| The Space Adventure (Video Game) / int_dc67d9ba | comment |
Kiss of Death: When Cobra punches a hole through Destroyer, she gives him a kiss on the neck before dying. Cobra is weirded out but doesn't think much of it while sneaking back to his cell. When Schultz comes to interrogate him, however, he notices the lipstick mark and realizes what Cobra did. At one point Cobra is set on a boxing match against a man named Garcias. One of the bad guy's workers, a woman named Trixie, whispers she'll root for Cobra and kisses him. During the kiss, however, she bites his lower lip and Cobra comes to have a really hard time fighting because of her paralyzing venom. | |

Heroic Second Wind | |
| The Space Adventure (Video Game) / int_ddc4f035 | comment |
Heroic Second Wind: Repeatedly done by Cobra to the point it becomes exhausting. A lot of battles end in Cobra's favor solely by the player repeatedly choosing options that press him to fight on despite it looking like Cobra's on his last breath, only for Cobra to suddenly summon the strength to completely waste the bad guy then go on as if he wasn't just battered to within an inch of his life. | |

Descending Ceiling: Schultz attempts to kill Cobra at Sid Prison with a descending ceiling trap after realizing it was him who killed Destroyer and Bomber. Cobra has to be saved by Duck, who knocks an Air-Vent Passageway's grate from the other side. This need for a man armed with a massively powerful arm cannon to be saved like that doesn't make much sense, particularly because in the manga, Cobra simply blows a hole into the wall. | |
