Brace Fencer Musashi is one of my favorite games of all times . So you can imagine how hyped I was about playing the long awaited sequel . Oh boy I didn't expect it to turn out like this . The story is very deep . Musashi the hero of this tale must rescue a princess who is trying to unleash a hero with a enormous crystal . The hero is the apparently the only one that can save her village from some an organization called " Gandrake Enterprise " They want the crystal in order to fuel the nebulium .

Musashi looks incredible . It uses the whole anime style to the characters which really blends well with the overall game . Graphics are cell-shaded, and the best there are out there . The enviournments look colorful, and so do the characters . Plus who doesn't like musashi's hair ? It moves so smoothly left and right, left and right truly a beuty to be seen . The only downfall is that you will be seeing the same damn enemies alot, I mean alot . And 90% of the whole games enemies are these robots that don't seem to have much detail on them .

The music is sort of a mix between arcade music, and children's songs music . It's not bad, it's actually quite good, but nothing to be blown away bad . Were the game really his a low blow is in it's God awful voice overs . Ok so some of the character voice acting is ok, but musashi's voice is part of the reason that there are still giving voice acting jobs to terrible actors . Good enough music, some characters voice acting is ok, but musashi's voice is horrendous .

When you start playing the game you will first encounter a tutorial by a Senior Cat . It's a bit helpful, but is it really needed ? All you get is block, hit one button and attack, your special move and there you go . The game get's old way too quickly . You will be doing the same moves over, and over again . It feels more like a hack n' slash than an rpg if you get what im saying . But it does have fun and challenging bosses, occasionally you will be able to hop on motorcycles, and the story is very good which will keep you from dropping the control from boring gameplay .

Overall : Hard die rpg fans are going to enjoy the very good story line, and rpg like bosses . Graphics are beautiful, and lush in details . But the game's voice acting is terrible, and the games one hit button combo will bore anyone fast .
