Senran Kagura: Shinovi Versus First Impressions


Months ago, I imported Senran Kagura: Shinovi Versus from Japan. I liked Senran Kagura Burst, so I thought I would give the Vita version a go. A part of me didn't think that Shinovi Versus would make it to the West so soon, but that part of me was obviously wrong. But, I digress.

I really like Senran Kagura: Shinovi Versus. I am not sure why I had waited so long to try it out. I don't understand any Japanese (which may be part of the reason why I found it difficult to start playing), but I have managed to figure out combat since it seems to be similar to Burst on the 3DS. I guess I will find out if I am right about that once it is released in the US.


I have played about an hour and a half of the game so far. There are three schools to choose from. I don't know the other two schools, but I believe the one I chose was Hanzo Academy. The game is a lot of fun. I like that it isn't a side-scroller beat-em-up like Burst. The camera is a little out of control sometimes, but you kind of get used to it after a while. I will continue to share my impressions of the game until the full Western release. At that point, I will write a review for the Western release of the game. I'm looking forward to that.
