Chō Aniki Bakuretsu Rantōden is a fighting game by Masaya and is the
third episode in the unique Chō Aniki series. All the main characters from
the first two games battle here on one-on-one fights, from the bald and muscly
Samson and Adon, to Idaten, Benten and even the
emperor Botei Bill himself. All the classic Chō Aniki ingredients
are reunited here - men showing off their prominent and well-developed muscles with
little clothing on, and odd but truly unique mechanical designs. A grand total of eigth
characters from the original game are playable here. Each character naturally
comes with their own sets of
moves and each one of them can fire a large laser-blast to momentarily stun their opponents.
Yet, Chō Aniki Bakuretsu Rantōden is not your typical fighting game - the game
actually stands out from its peers by the way how the fighters fly around the arena
and are completely airborne.

The original Super Famicom game comes with a mini CD with remixes of the
game soundtrack by Koji Hayama (Picture on the right).

Here we go again! Chō Aniki is back but this episode
is a refreshing departure from the classic formula - the original
shooting recipe has been replaced here by a straight on one-on-one
fighting game. Graphics, as expected, are magnificent and highly detailed.
The game's theme also follows the Chō Aniki series and features
oiled muscled men, butt shaking and weird stuff creeping around every corner.
It is a shame to see so many reviewers freaking out over the game's odd
content without knowing anything about its origins - Samson and
Adon are the two flying options from the first Chō Aniki
and most of the other fighters are bosses from the same game. The theme
is indeed weird but far from "pornographic" and "taboo" as
some people describe it. Anyway, back to the game at hand. If the original
PC Engine game were competent shooters, this fighting game lacks
some really important components. It is repetitive and the overall action,
despite being smooth, ends up being incredibly slow. It is a shame as
Chō Aniki Bakuretsu Rantōden features some mind-blowing levels
and unique character design.
