Yet another great reason to own a Wii. Love the homage to Hokusai.

Kisuke: He has lost his memory, an is being chased by his fellow ninja. Apparently he is a traitor, but he can\'t remember what he did that made them so angry. He feels a strong urge to collect Demon Blades, and throws himself into the midst of this Free-For-All war between those who seek these swords.

Izuna Jinkurou: He is a master of Oboro-Ryuu Kenpou (Dragon-Style Sword Technique), and can wield Demon Blades at will. He tries to possess a certain person using his TamashiiUtsushi (Soul Transfer) Technique, but Momohime gets in the way and he accidentally possesses her.

Kongiku: A BakeGitsune (Demon Fox) who is in love with Jinkurou. Even after he possess Momohime, her love for him does not change.

The way she's holding that sword I'm not sure if its a weapon or a sex toy.

That looks insane. I hope its challenging. I wonder if its a Wiiware game or DVD release?

Looks seriously fucking awesome. There does seem to be a little bit too much repetition of moves but, still looks slick. A bit like DMC in 2D or something.

It's on disc.

It's a action RPG.

Vanillaware made Odin's Sphere on the PS2.

Really reminds of Viewtiful Joe for some odd reason.


It's on disc.

Thats good, I unreasonably don't like to pay for digital goods. Smilie

It looks pretty damn awesome, lovely animation, and great style to boot. Smilie

Wow, that looks amazing. Smilie Another one to add to my list to buy. Smilie

All the audio from this game brings up images from Okami for me, not to mention their familiar art styles. What's the word on Muramasa's US release?

The first time I saw this game (october I think) I immediatelty wanted it. The flawless graphical style much like Okami and awesome combat. This Is a must buy for me along with Madworld and The Conduit. Can\'t wait for Oboro Masaumassa: The Daemon blade!!!

I also like the way you run for each character. Kisuke goes from left to right because he is going from Edo to Kyo (tokyo to kyoto) and Momohime goes from right to left as she is going from Kyo to Edo. Nice little touch. I like how the background is set realistically (history wise with the shogun)other than the deamons and gods being created by the two deamon blades Smilie and over 100 swords thats a bonus. You can also change between two swords at will. one that is faster but slightly weaker and one that is slower but stronger.

The official Famitsu page has some scans and artwork

http://www.famitsu.com/sp/090213_oboro_muramasa/

looks like someones taken okami and onimusha and just drilled them together with a jack hammer.

Gotta say it doesen't look too great for me though.

Why not include any Japanese game that has a distinctly Japanese style to it?.

This game looks nothing like Onimusha or Okami.

The characters sound interesting especially the relationship between Izuna Jinkurou and KongikuSmilie. Aren't there only two playable characters though or will the others be unlockables?

I think it's just those two, but nobody knows at this stage.

Apparantly we got to wait for Spring 2010 for this now.

He means EU J Tang. It\'s the translation into all the euro languages that takes so long. This is a action RPG with a lot of text I imagine.

It\'s been pushed back till November 09 in the US...

I reckon I\'m gonna get this game just for the art style. Looks gorgeous. Smilie And it seems to be one of those that screenshots don\'t do justice. The environments look amazing in motion.

Asian girls don't usually have bosoms that size...

No way, check out some famous Japanese AV models, some are huge up top. I think you are confusing them with the stereo type of males and a different part of the anatomy Smilie

The art is stunning.

Who has yet to play Odin's Sphere here?
