I can't help but laugh at this game. The opening scene is pretty rad as most PCE-CD games are, and then from there you choose your guy and more or less just fight guys while moving to the right!

Some of the animations are pretty neat--the way your guy looks up when you hold up is wildly over-animated in a pretty cool way but gosh, save your time folks. Not a lot here to like.

Do I like main character Fujiro's Ryo Saeba-esque outfit w/ added fingerless gloves? Of course, I am not made of stone. However, this game is clunky and dull, endless walking right and fighting maybe 5 guys before fighting a boss-level guy. The surface-level influence of Castlevania is obvious, right up to extremely annoying knockback anytime you get hit, which wouldn't be so bad if all your attacks weren't stubby little things. At least you can very slowly do a rolling koppo kick.
