Kendo Rage
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kendo Rage, known in Japan as Makeruna! Makendō (負けるな!魔剣道), is a video game for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System by Datam Polystar. Seta U.S.A. created the English version.
The original Japanese version of the game stars a girl named Mai Tsurugino (剣野 舞 Tsurugino Mai?). A spirit detective named Doro (ドロ) finds Mai and asks her to help him attack monsters.
In the English-language version of the game, an American girl named Josephine "Jo" goes to Japan to attend a summer kendo school. Her personal trainer, Osaki "Bob" Yoritomo ("Doro" in the Japanese version) asks her to fight monsters on the way to school.
A sequel was made on the Super Famicom and Playstation and subsequently named Makeruna! Makendō 2, but plays as a head-to-head fighting game. An RPG named Makeruna! Makendō Z was released for the PC-FX.
