Crystals
These can be obtained in three ways: by killing a group of enemies, through Dream Co., Ltd. and by clearing a round.

Shots

 * Vulcan shot (バルカンショット): Fired from Yuichiro's (or Sunday's) ship at a faster rate.

 * Wide shot (ワイドショット): Five times as powerful as normal shots.
 * After shot (アフターショット): Ten times as powerful as normal shots and fired continuously from both the front and back of Yuichiro's (or Sunday's) ship.
 * Stock bomber shot (ストックボンバーショット): Pac-Man sits on the front of Yuichiro's (or Sunday's) ship, creates a shield around it, sucks in all the enemies' shots and spits them back out at them. The more shots he sucks in, the bigger he gets and the more powerful the shots he spits out will be.

Bombs
You get five bombs with every purchase.
 * Fire bombs (ファイヤーボンブズ): Create a huge explosion upon impact.
 * Homing missiles (ホーミングミサイルズ): Automatically home in on any enemies currently on screen.
 * Subroc bombs (サブロックボンブズ): In order to obtain these on the third and fourth rounds, you will have to be playing as Sunday Chin (player 2). They fly into the air and create a small explosion upon impact.

Others
These are technically not weapons.
