Sorry for the double post, but just wanted to say that there's a scan of Daidouji and Rin out there. They're going to be 600yen each, or 1000 for both in a bundle.

命駆を行う
Inochigake wo okonau
Perform inochigake*
Hold R button, put your fingers in the center of the screen and slide them outwards to the left and right (page 30 in the manual). Increases your attack speed, attack strength and movement speed, but lowers your defense.
*Inochigake is an ateji or play on the word 命懸け, replacing the typical character 懸 (to risk one's life) with the character 駆 (to run (for one's?) life)
Well he looks a damn sight better than he does in the anime. In the anime they aged him by about 40 years for no reason

I continue to be surprised by how seriously they're taking the online mode. Playing the main game, it really does feel like everything was designed around long term multiplayer. Not a bad thing at all, given how crazy the customization options can be.

I can defintely see the possibility of a dedicated multiplayer community forming around it.
I haven't had too much time to spend with this game, but it keeps getting better as I play- It reminds me a lot of Samurai Warriors 3 with the dash system, only it doesn't limit you and you can do air combos/dash through attacks. I was concerned that you only fight against the same smaller grunts, but then I just played on a stage with larger characters that roll towards you and took longer to kill. I don't like that the stages only throw small amount of enemy squads at you, but at least new squads spawn immediately after one squad is taken out.
Was pretty surprised to see fights now ending with the other character's clothing getting knocked clean off -the naughty bits are covered by little angry faces- now I am 100% certain this game is never going to be localized unless it's heavily-censored, LOL.
Am I the only one who also gets kind of a Gundam Vs. Gundam (or really, Sengoku Basara Battle Heroes) vibe from the game too?

It's so smooth and fliud !
It's ...
So freaking fun !!
The amount of voice work is simply incredible... everything you do..most of the menu actions ,the voice during the fights , the voices before and after the fights.
Every member of the team talks , it's incredible..
The amount of work they did to explain the world to the newcomers is really impressive ..lenghty optionnal lecture are in the game for the setting for you to read ( they are voiced too ) and the specifics words are highlited and you can touch the word to have a more specific explanation about it.
Now in term of customisation, the game is just packed with content it's overwhelming ( for now ).
This is good stuff.
Now the praise ends: The loading times could use some work...it's not bad but they could have been shorter..now if this is the price to pay for a full customisation for your character in battle & cutscenes .. it's a small price to pay that i won't mind much .

Those screens don't do the game justice everything in game is smooth and it works perfectly. Dialog is fun ....story is silly but intriguing so far ..loving it , overall.
Our favorite molester ready for action but an unexpected opponent might be near
It's horrible how this screen doesn't do the game justice.

So, fellow SK enthusiasts, how does it feel to be a part of the Vita revival movement?
They're definitely putting all their future installments on the Vita now lol. It's selling like gangbusters.

I'm interested in Senran Kagura Burst because I like the side view style, but I also have a Vita starved for games. Any consensus on which is better, or strong opinions to skip burst over this?
I agree that this game is the mix of Gundam Vs and Sengoku Basara, with life and hometown of course.
From Koei's warriors series, I think the closet game (game system wise) to Senran Kagura is Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 2 (considering boost system and aerial combo).

Play-asia still hasn't shipped my (admittedly late) pre-order despite the initial "on or before March 04" estimate. Leave for vacation on Monday. At this rate I may as well have opted for the cheap shipping.
Glad to hear the game is not only good but seemingly full of content. I wasn't sure what to think with the gameplay shift but it seems like it was a good move. Have to say I am less than excited to read there are touch elements beyond the gimmicky things.

Finishing individual missions (5 for each character) unlocks voice data to be purchased in in-game shop. There are over 300 voices per character and I really don't have time to go over all of them...

Now that's just pure fanservice right there. If a douchebag company like EA ever made this game, it'd be 0.99 USD per voice data per character.
If you have a Vita just grab this. I think it's much better than the 3DS titles in most aspects.

Yep incredible i don't have another word more "fitting"..
especially some of those "voices" lol
I wouldn't say they'll do all their future installments.
All the future musou style SK games sure, but Takagi has said beforehand that he loves working with the 3DS, so I wouldn't think he'd give up developing for it.

Sigh... all the positive talk here convinced me on getting this even though I never imported a Japanese-only game before to actually play it most of the time and now Play-Asia is out of stock, is there any chance they restock soon?
I get similar feelings like back then in 2005 when I looked all over the place to get a copy of Legend of Mana.

You can opt fior a digital version off of PSN if you don't mind the 5 minute's it requires to switch over your Vita to a Japanese or Hong Kong PSN account when you want to play it. I've grabbed Senran Kagura,Monster Monpiece and Tales of Heart R that way.

I'm waiting for prices to calm down at Amazon JPN before I jump in.
The 3DS games got a lot of praise too but were duds when I finally played them so I really don't listen to the hype any more.
If you finish the boss with Lv.2 Ninpo it'll rip her bra off.

Hmm that does sound like a nice alternative especially since I have a Japanese account anyways for PSO2 Vita, if I can find a store that sends PSN codes by email I might go that way thanks for reminding me of that option!
Thanks to you too I will consider them if I decide to go physical! And it's only a video-game so yeah
Hmm thanks for the warning, I generally like Musou-style games but I guess watching some more gameplay videos wouldn't hurt.

You'll find the game has a local game option with cpu bots, not ideal, but will give you a feel for the MP.

Well after seeing some more gameplay videos I think I'm sold... if I buy this I will get a digital PSN code as a email right? http://www.play-asia.com/PlayStatio...e_network_on/paOS-13-71-io-49-en-70-3xk5.html
I just want to make sure as it's the first time I'm doing things like this so thanks for any help
Oh and how much is Senran Kagura on PSN anyways?

I need to play this mooooore today.
Senran Kagura is, I believe, 5980 yen on PSN.
You can play it on your US account, but I don't believe there is any way to bring your save over to your JP account. You'll probably have to play through it again... I'd love to be wrong.
Yes! I don't think you'll be disappointed. If you buy that, you will get an email with the code, yes. It could be a little cheaper here, though. And keep in mind that if you buy it on PSN, you can only use it on that account!Well after seeing some more gameplay videos I think I'm sold... if I buy this I will get a digital PSN code as a email right? http://www.play-asia.com/PlayStatio...e_network_on/paOS-13-71-io-49-en-70-3xk5.html

But whoa 6000 yen in codes would be 60 which is a bit more than I would like to spend on a Vita game right now so I guess I have to wait or go physical...
