Tsunami

Tsunami (つなみ ちゅういほう lit. Warning: Tsunami (i.e. Tidal Wave) in Japanese) is the twelfth level and is the second level of the third warp room in Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex. It is the second oriental-styled level in the game along with Banzai Bonsai. It takes place on a thunderstormed town in a late afternoon. As its name suggests, the town, in which most of the level takes place, is destroyed and sunk by a tsunami. When being chased by it, Coco must break all the crates open herself because the dangerous tidal wave doesn't break any of them.

Trivia

 * It is the first and only level in the game (and the series, overall) that Coco uses her scooter.
 * 小"丹"町 is written on the lanterns and seems to be a place name like "Little Dan Town." The character 町 (machi, i.e. town) is often used in Japanese place names and rarely used in Chinese.
 * This level is uncommon in that activating the Nitro Switch Crate before entering the secret path will make the secret path unbeatable, as Coco has to jump on boxes that have Nitro Crates under them to pass through the water area. However, in most levels of the entire series, activating the Nitro Switch Crate before entering the secret path makes the secret path much easier (the most notable such level is probably Un-Bearable).
