Koihime Enbu

Funny game with characters from the anime series Koihime Musou.

The game is fun, but it would have been nice if they could have included all of the characters that were introduced in the San goku Koihime series.

It is a good fighter with lots of characters to choose from.

I bought this for 2 reasons, first because I purchase practically every new fighting game I can get my hands on, and second because it had an all-female roster. Aside from that, I had no great expectations for the game. The game is way meatier and more strategic than I initially gave it credit for. It's tough, too, but it always felt fair in its challenge, not cheap like many fighters with artificial difficulty spikes. The play modes are solid and varied, including some in-depth training tools. Character models (2.5D) are slick, and the whole thing has a classic arcade feel to it. There are 13 playable characters, and most of them have access to a choice of 2 strategists (7 total) that act as assist characters. The characters' personalities were interesting enough, though story content was probably the game's weakest point. It's mostly very minimal visual novel stuff, with a fair amount of voiced dialogue between fights in scenario or arcade modes. It honestly could've benefitted from more cutscenes or still-frame H scenes like its eroge counterpart, if only to keep things more mature and interesting (just Cero D level, not asking for full-on hentai here). But that's minor and pretty subjective. The core gameplay here is spectacular, and against other PS4 2D fighters like Blade Arcus and Nitroplus Blasters, I would easily say this is a better choice.

Koihime Enbu is a really enjoyable 2D fighter. Graphics are clean, fighting is solid. However, this title lacks different game modes as survival and time challenge. Story mode is good! Overall if a big Koihime Musou fan give it a shot!
