I was looking forward to trying this fighting game simply because it was made by the same folks who produced Asuka 120%, which is my favorite member of the genre. Acquiring it wasn't easy, as it isn't the most common title, and some sellers try to make a fortune off it. So when I finally got it (on the cheap, as you should too if you decide to buy it), I quickly and anticipatedly powered it up and... promptly fought my way through the entire Story Mode. Then I started over on "Hard"... and crushed every challenger I encountered. I hadn't yet looked at the instruction manual, so the only special move I made use of during those runs was a fireball toss (as it's performed via the usual quarter-circle routine). Rarely did I resort to using that move, as I simply didn't need it. And keep in mind that I'm pretty bad at fighting games.

I'll take this body, please.

Here's the Story Mode story: you meet some cool-looking (if incompetent) fighters and beat the living crap out of them.

...but they delivered a product completely lacking in challenge. It really doesn't matter which character you use or whom you face. Victories come easily.
