Such a delight to play, and an incredible step up from Seiken Densetsu 1. Probably one of my earliest exposures to Action RPGs, and blew my mind that it looked and played like a Zelda game but had stats, equipment, and magic like Final Fantasy. The graphics still look beautiful, and the music is excellent. Later bosses felt like magic was the only usable approach which I didn't love, but got through them eventually. Loved revisiting this on the Collection of Mana on the Switch.
