How do you unlock Axel's story?

[Beast Master]

Sorry im new to the Disgaea series. i got the Axel ending (cuz i accidently threw too many Prinnies). but nothing showed up. any ideas on how to unlock his story?

You need to finish the main story by getting the good ending, or even the bad/worse ending. Then they'll ask if you want to play Axel's mode, but be ready, the first stages have level 100ish enemies.

Ah i see. Thanks. Dont worry im making the most overpowered Prinny ever so im good XD

There is also a code you can input at the title screen, works in pretty much every NIS strategy game re-release, that will have you New Game into the alternate story, Axel Mode in this case. New Gaming into it will have enemies start at levels reasonable for Level 1 characters, and the final boss of it will be around Level 30 or 40. NG+ into Axel Mode, and that same boss is Level 300 or so.

IIRC, the code, using playstation buttons, is Triangle Square Circle Triangle Square Circle X. I'm not sure what those would be on keyboard, but that should still help. I think one of the community guides has the keyboard inputs.

If you start a new game before playing adell mode via using the code as mentioned, the monster and axell will begin at low level too, level 1.

To be honest, I'm just speedrunning through Axel mode just for the Magichange ability lol

Be warned -- newbies need not apply. I went that exact route, but the enemies scale up way faster than in Adell Mode. Fun way to start for somebody who's familiar with the series, though.

NG+ Axel's mode gives a better bonus rank too, CoO4 gave me a legendary Excal and I still wonder if I should grind there more than Adell's Mode. However, you can't do postgame in Axel's mode.

It'll be as broken as Lv.9999 Nekomata trick if you could bring them over lol.

You can get that out of Adell's CoO4, too.
