Makeruna! Makendo 2: Kimero Yokai Souri

About

Makeruna! Makendo 2 throws three misfit warriors into a chaotic battle between monsters and humans. Protagonist Makenko, a cyborg with a vendetta against Dr. Mud, teams up with reluctant hunter Makendo and her eager sister Hikari. The trio smashes through hordes of demons and kaiju-style beasts using a mix of martial arts and bizarre weapons. Each fighter has distinct moves and quirks, though the plot takes a backseat to the over-the-top action. Matches range from straightforward brawls to arena-based showdowns, with cartoonish gore and humor threading the chaos together. The game’s split-screen multiplayer lets two players team up or turn on each other, though frame rates dip under heavy action. Its 1995 release on Super Famicom and later ports to PlayStation systems make it a niche pick for retro brawler fans. While the story meanders and graphics feel dated, the zany tone and combo-heavy combat earn it a cult following. Community reviews often highlight the absurdity, think explosive fists and monster-summoning finishers, though newer players might find the controls clunky. A sequel that leans into the weird, it’s best approached as a curiosity rather than a classic.
