Yes, the body parts and blood do indeed fly in these rather splashy Onechanbara screens, huh? Granted, the game is more of a pure guilty pleasure fling with a C+ cutie than a must purchase AAA title, so don't expect greatness. In case you're curious, this sexy gal packed arcade style slash 'em up started off back in Japan as part of D3 Publisher's budget priced Simple 2000 lineup. There were a few Onechanbara games, a spin-off and characters from the game even appeared in a not so hot budget 3D fighting game a few years back. And yes, i own a couple of these titles (so sue me for liking cheesy action games).
Anyway, there's a decent bit of challenge to pulling off some of the special combo attacks. I guess I should write up a review one of these days, right? A Wii gallery for Onechanbara Bikini Samurai Slayers is going up next. Like this game, it's not going to win any Game of the Year awards, but it does its job well enough for fans of cute gals in fetish gear, seemingly endless waves of zombies and gallons of blood spilled per minute.
