Crash Has Had a Terrible Love Life
A closer look at Crash’s love life will make you never complain about yours again. The very reason we were introduced to the crate smashing bandicoot in the first place is because he was on a mission to rescue his girlfriend, Tawna, who had been captured for the sake of Dr. Neo Cortex’s experiments. So go ahead and think about all the trouble you went through to rescue Tawna only to see her vanish when the second game was released. Ever wondered what happened to her? Well, after all that, she left Crash. Not only did she ditch her hero, but she also decided to run right into the arms of Pinstripe Potoroo. At least, that’s the explanation that was included in the game’s manual in Japan to explain Tawna’s sudden disappearance.
Outside of the world of Crash Bandicoot lore, however, Tawna actually vanished from the game because she was deemed too sexual for the franchise.
