Ok, but where's Oneedongbara?
Can skillshare teach me how to be anime protagonist my boy?
You know, unlike with Oneechanbara, there's an actual *point* to all the fanservice in Kill la Kill; and if you watch it, I'm sure you'll see what that point is.
THAT DIGIMON GAME WAS GREAT, HOW DARE YOU!
I'll tell you where....it's in our hearts.
@@planetschlock
Yep, yep exactly.
I feel like this series exists solely because the devs thought that the pun in the title was just too good.
That's pretty much the whole Simple Series 2000 in a nutshell =P
"we will make trash!"
A noble reason
Ima be honest, a lot of these budget titles that come from Japan feel like they were only made because someone lost a bet, but then they ended up way more popular than anyone anticipated, so they just rolled with it.
That's absolutely it, you just know they were absolutely shitfaced and decided that it would be hilarious to have an "onee chan chanbara" game. Coincidentally, inebriated satisfaction at punning is also how Kill la Kill came about!
Might I tempt you with Senran Kagura?
That series needs to shift over to PC and switch like yesterday.
As long as it's going to be relegated to the Microsoft but especially Sony consoles it is screwed. I mean when the main man leaves the project you know the series is kind of screwed.
YES
WE NEED THAT
@@JohnDoe-wq5eu Yeah, the series really need to move away from Sony and just go Switch and PC. Development of 7even comes to a screeching halt after the creator left :'(
The true test of a man's culture
@@JohnDoe-wq5eu don't forget the mobile games that didn't get a western release
Origins: Taking the Blum-House Films method and applying it to a video game.
I feel like that's an insult to origins.
Freaking Blum-House has no shame and not in a good way.
@@JohnDoe-wq5eu No. The Blum-House Films method is more of giving multiple directors smaller and reasonable budgets with guidelines but more or less creative control; So we have less Zach Snyder sized cluster-fricks that go way over budget and way out of control. That way we get more movies for less money. That way if they make a small profit oh well they make their budgets back because they were cheap to make. Or in this case more games for less money. That don't necessarily cut the quality of said projects, just the scale. It's nice to get some smaller, quality B Games again. Plus when they're smaller there's less things to go wrong.
@@larrylaffer3246
Yeah as far as that goes I agree but damn does Blum House make some absolute crap. Sure they helped get things like get out and a few good ones out there but for every good there's crap like fantasy Island or just absolutely garbage that makes me go oh why?! Games like this on the other hand I love because they know exactly what they are and they give the audience exactly what they want.
(Which I guess is kind of Blum House but oh God that turns my stomach to say there's a market for that crap but I know there is, geez)
@@JohnDoe-wq5eu Yeah they do make alot of horrendous crap but their method isn't a bad one. I really like it. Plus look at this way at least their crap doesn't cost as much as other studio's crap. When they make a stinker it doesn't bankrupt the company and screw over all of it's workers. Unlike DC where they had to lay off tons of innocents because Zach Snyder can't make a quality film.
@@larrylaffer3246
I mostly agree with that but if that last part about Zack Snyder was about the whole horrendous situation with Justice League I think we all know who is responsible for that and it wasn't Zack Snyder.
(hint hint it was the actual studio deciding to interfere instead of letting things go as they were supposed to I'm bringing in Joss Wheaton to finish it and all that)
But yeah their business model I like for the most part it's a shame they're actual product is total awful trash more times than not. They really need to get some better writers.
It's like they took that 2% of every Japanese game ever made that always happens whenever anyone walks in while you're playing, and stretched it out into a whole game all on its own. Touché, Japan, touché.
Your story of trying Z2 Chaos is literally how I got into the series. Lol was expecting trash, when i found a hidden gem.
That's the entry I started with as well. It's still a solid romp that I still dust off every once in a while.
I started off with the 360 release, and went off and bought the special edition releases of the ps2 games (japanese versions, as I was never able to find copies of Zombie Hunters 1 or 2 floating), then the Wii game, ZII Banana Split, and recently Origins (ordered mine from PlayAsia so I could have a physical copy).
i played them and the spin off school girl zombie hunter
Somebody needed to make this video, thank you for being the hero
Proof that not all heroes wear capes.
...Or much of anything really, as these games clearly demonstrate.
Oh hey boys
Does this mean bonsai pop will cover the oneechanbara films in a Collab?!
@@liesureleeminis8268 I’ll talk to Austin on discord and get back to you lol 😂
Love you both xo
Gabe, we need another steam sale. I've got more weird games to buy.
Gabe I have some more research to do lmfao 😂
I'd actually prefer if they held of on good sales for a little while.
I'm trying to save up for a Deck but Valve keeps distracting me with 50-80% off on titles on my wishlist.
Damn you and your great bargains Gabe!
Losing my shit at "TÍAS BUENAS CONTRA ZOMBIES."
Un spinoff muy extraño de plantas contra zombies
It's as dumb as "Search for Sanji in Mexico" quest name title in Jump Force, but at least this game delivers what they promised literally
@@ohamatchhams omegaLul
Google translates this as "HOT BIRDS AGAINST ZOMBIES".
@@vodkahamburger2203 I can explain that. So, “bird” as in the animal with a beak and feathers is “el pájaro” or “el ave (plural: las aves)” in Spanish. But, in British English, “bird” is slang for “girl” or “woman.” In the same way, “tía” literally means “aunt,” but in Spanish slang, it means “girl.”
Some of these Oneechanbara games have titles that can rival Isekai anime...
This just unlocked a memory I didn’t know I had
Boobies lmfao 😂
Why did you have to remind us that Too Human exists?
The Simple Series have a special place in my heart. Not a good or bad place, but special
What about earth defense force? The simple project that was so popular that it turned into a franchise in its own right
The sniper 2 is a video game masterpiece
@@volantblade2024
I can't remember where I saw someone playing that some video I saw here on CZcams wow it was incredible. Janky, broken and completely nonsensical but wow what a ride.
So basically, it's like Devil May Cry and Bayonetta had a baby, who went to study under Ninja Gaiden, and then when they needed a blood transfusion, the donor was Castlevania.
Edit: 18:26 Did the actual Akira Toriyama draw the artwork? Cause that looks more like a Dragon Quest game's box art.
Yeah, Akira Toriyama was the artist for Blue Dragon as well
Fun fact, there's a THIRD movie, Oppai Chanbara: Striptease Samurai Squad. I actually own it since it was released by Tokyo Shock. And yes, it is just as amazing as the first two, while also being a prequel of sorts.
Senran Kagura series retrospective
Do it you know you want to.
But the story gets so sad toward the end. The current situation was Sony and their dumbass policies has completely screwed the series.
They need to just cut ties move it over to the switch and PC and have done with it.
@@JohnDoe-wq5eu I've only played senran kagura reflexions and peachball on switch. Whats the origin game?
@@statesminds senran kagura burst that was released first on 3ds but got a remaster in the form of senran kagura burst re:newal for pc and ps4
@@JohnDoe-wq5eu they moved to commiefornia
Just wanted to say
Deep Crimson is the best one
Damn, she got that Nagoriyuki blood meter. Or, I guess Nagoriyuki got an onechanbara meter.
I absolutely loved Onechanbara Z2 Chaos on PS4. I still need to get Origin, because I like the art. Lol
this game turned me into a degenerate i am, i owned it on my psp so cool memories
The entire reason I played this series was because of u and Z2 Chaos damn it, I've been bumping "ICHIBAN WA ME" for years now smh
it's glorious.
The 360 version was one of the last games I rented from Blockbuster
That game was fun. I dont care what anybody says.
@@KBMaximus
Everything is pretty much subjective these days. I've enjoyed tons of crap people could not stand. That said it does kind of amuse me that the two best games the West got in the series are both on PS4. I mean the single best 360 version never made it to the states same with the PS3 version.
Thank you for not stopping mid video to talk about Bass Pro Shop
Has Oneechanbara never crossed over with Senran Kagura? They seem like a perfect fit for eachother.
Kagura’s japanese va is Miyuki Sawashiro, so her personality plus Miyuki’s tomboy voice means she’s made to appeal to me specifically.
Same.
Yeah it hits the spot.
I completely lost my mind when I first heard her talk and had to look it up to prove I wasn't having an auditory hallucination.
I bought Onechanbara Z2 really cheap on steam and I was really surprised by it. I was able to customize the character so I added multiple giant pieces of toast and had very serious cutscenes with a person covered in toast, that alone made me enjoy the game. The combat was pretty fun too and switching between 4 different characters mid combat was really fun.
excuse me how *dare* you put in a clip of the first Digimon Rumble Arena when talking about bad games
that game was the shit
Played it so much as a kid. Always felt a bit clunky but I loved it!
Only bad thing about rumble arena was the borderline broken AI when you were fighting reapermon, i raged hard against him as a kid.
And the sequel was even better
@@brokenbond2012 yeah, that and maybe that the digivolution for everyone went straight to mega
wouldve preferred the ultimates for Angewomon and Holyangemon
Man, Matt has been getting around in these collaborations, I'm alright with that 👍
I got sold on Origin when I entered the page on steam and listen to the music of the trailer, is soooo good.
I want more in this franchise, had fun with chaos
Why should using a gun preclude her from being a Samurai. Samurai used guns all the time. They loved guns. Ever hear of Nobunaga Oda? He conquered all of Japan using basically a gun fetish as his military philosophy.
Samurai were consummate warriors and they'd use whatever the best weapons and tactics they could get their hands on. Just like any other good warrior class. As soon as European nations could make reliable firearms you bet your ass the typical knight and soldier learned how to use and abuse them.
As one of the 5 people that enjoyed OneeChanbara Origin, I'm totally looking forward to the future of the series! I think Bikini Samurai Squad is next in order to be remade! :D
There are more than five people liking the game, but people dont like greedy Publisher who sell the game for full price plus dlc.
Wow, that's one weird coincidence. I look onto this channel whether there is something new CZcams didn't bother telling me about, go to Matt Mcmuscles to whatch a What happened? and halfway through I got notified of this which brought me back to where I started - twice.
I think ”incoming lore” needs to be my new ringtone
Pretty sure I only ever heard of this series from an old Nintendo Power magazine.
Same
Wait you're saying you heard everything about the series from the single time the series appeared on a Nintendo console, wow now that's impressive.
I hope they release an Oneechanbara on Swith, with Sony's new censorship policy, it's not a good idea to keep the series on Playstation.
I am always overjoyed when I see another video pop on this channel. Honestly just want to say when it comes to what is the current gaming channels this is as good as it gets. Never bringing the serious stuff from the world or grandstanding like a lot of other review channels and such. These videos are like escapism and always feel nostalgic for some reason. The way I wanna feel when I play a game. Love what you do Austin, the content is great……when we get it. Lol Thanks!
The retrospective I never knew I needed...
Looking Cool, Joker. 😂
I’m sat at home crying my eyes out and despite it all, I was so happy to see you post Austin. I love every video you make. Keep it up dude.
Seriously Z2 Chaos was awesome. The theme song was a banger and the English VO was actually really really good. You can tell the VO actresses were just going to town with how ridiculous it was.
Yay!
Austin, I have that shirt. Good taste my man.
Finally, a video for me, a man who enjoys objectively bad hack'n'slash games.
I know I'm definitely in the minority here, but I thought the more "anime" style of Origin was a bit of a step backwards. Like I definitely appreciated more detail being put into the design, but what I personally loved about this series was that it had this over the top wacky anime feel with a more "realistic" art style that was a lot more of a fun juxtaposition in my eyes. But yeah, definitely a fun look at the franchise from start to finish. Great job, dude!
This is one of those things that I know I read in game informer or watched on XPlay and never even DREAMED of actually playing because of the secondhand embarrassment
It's definitely one of those games you don't put on your shelf prominently. You hide it away like a shameful little secret. People can be so judgy.
@@JohnDoe-wq5eu You don't display them prominently?
@@ahomicidaltaco
I mean I'm not the typical market for it but yeah I probably would. Then again I have no shame. 😆
Definitely gonna watch this later after work ends. Great to see you're doing a collab with Matt.
Yeah, I think Austin has done another video or two with him in the past too.
Doesn't explain how they got in to bikinis? DOESN'T EXPLAIN?! You casual! As you mentioned, Kagura wears one to taunt Aya, while Aya herself wears one to maximize her exposure to undead (zombie) blood which will then react to her baneful blood and cause the overpowered berserk state. And no, her HALF-sister Saki doesn't have that problem because she has a greater susceptibility to go Berserk compared to Aya due to being a descendant of the head family of the Baneful Bloodline. It's not fan service it's LOOOOOOOOOOOORE.
That Trails of Cold Steel music at 12:00 👀 great video, I love the Trails series
Ahhh can’t believe you all mentioned the Trails series and showed Kuro footage xD nice
Today I started binging your content again. So happy to see a new video. I'm more of an EDF fan but onechambara seems to be somewhat fun.
This series of games holds a special place in my heart. It's just like Earth Defence Force: stupid, outrageous, clunky, buggy, and a whole lot of fun. S tier guilty pleasure material
Great video! I thoroughly enjoyed it!
I just bought Onechanbara ZII CHAOS and I'm having a blast. I definitely want to get Onee Chanbara Origin next.
The way i discovered Oneechanbara was in a very funny way
In Brazil a lot of people know that video game piracy is huge, buying games for like 5 bucks pretty easily, so imagine 14 year old me going to a store to buy a pirated copy of Smash Bros Brawl, hoping to see Mario beat up Sonic finally, just to realize the disk was misslabeled and see big tiddy girl slicing up zombies
I'm both super happy that you made a game about the Onechanbara series and also mad that I didn't make a video about it first. I've been collecting these, and various Simple Series games, for years and they're still prizes in my collection. It would have been cool to play them all and do a deep dive on them. But thanks for saving me the time. Still glad I have them.
Nice video. I've had this game looming on the back of my head since I was a young boy because of the title and, well, modestly dressed girls.
I would always see the cover of one of these games on the local game shop (I honestly don't know which oneechanbara it was), then I'd stare at it for a few seconds and just move on to buy other games just because I know I'd be questioned by my super religious parents if I ever play this.
Thanks for the video. I have liked this game series for a while now.
OMG YESS childhood memories Zombie Hunters on the ps2 was the shit!!
Thanks for making this. It's a series I've always been very intrigued about but never felt the inclination to ever play.
You sold me on Oneechanbara Origins! I'll buy it as soon as it goes on sale.
Thank you for making this Video, I forgot all about this series and I'm totally checking out Origin now!
I started this series with the Wii game and ive been hooked ever since tysm for this lmao
"I wish I had skills." Hahaha! You're killing me with laughter.
Definitely a sequel is needed for Z2 Chaos.
Great video, thanks man. I'm waiting for almost a year, for Onee Chanbara origin to go on sale, but still no luck.
Thank you for this
Austin my man , glad to see you being a bit more semi regular on the vids
Halfway through this video I found myself drifting off into that special zone of turning your brain off, wondering... what good reason would there be for a character to be wearing a costume in such a setting... and my brain actually answered in a rare moment of... lets call it creativity.... before promptly shutting back off again.
Have a weird mutant character who can project spikes/bone and muscle based weaponry from their body... except it would tear their clothing if they wore anything normal.
So they wear a bikini so they can freely shoot out swords, arrows, maces or whatever the fuck else they need from all over their body without worrying about constantly having to buy new clothes.
Or maybe its just me watching this back to back with a cruelty squad video and my mind is stuck thinking of weird bio-weapon shit and the fact that the protag of cruelty squad looks to go around naked himself.
Oh so just Hulk Reasoning basically.
I mean they're actually is quote unquote "reasoning" for it in the games universe as being splattered with the blood actually makes him stronger. Absolute perfection as far as why you should basically be naked in a game logic.
Still coming back to watch this over a year later. One of my favorite videos on CZcams
Such a good video that really describes the experience of Oneechanbara. I accidentally stumbled across the series after playing SGZH and finding out they shared a universe so I bought Z2 Chaos off ebay and was absolutely hooked. If you want a silly game that you just don’t take seriously and is mindless fun it’s worth it.
I actually picked up that Oneechanbara game after your video.
I think there was 2 levels in a row where I was just in a big graphics placeholder pit and I stopped there lol
I hope u know this is not getting monetized 😂 u are a savior
Thank you for doing this I love this kusoge series
I hate how we have to resort to calling actual good games "guilty pleasures" because it shows some titty. Liking to look at beautiful women now makes us "degenerate" man the world we live in sure is a circus XD In reality we need more games like this that feel like they were made by some studio that had fun making what they wanted to make. Maybe eventually the industry will see the grand return of fun games like this as soon as we stop prematurely judging people off of the games they play. Cheers have fun with the fun games.
It's main appeal being sexy women is one of the reason I checked it out. I was surprised to see it added to PS+ Extra considering how much of a pussy Sony has become lately. So I had to support the addition by downloading and playing it to completion.
I love that the man that introduced me to this series finally gave me the retrospective I have always wanted
Always liked the Simple series because you knew you were getting something interesting even if the quality varies wildly. Still have amazing memories of playing hours of Earth Defense Force on 360 in college and trading off the controllers between the 5 of us.
I've only watched 36 seconds of this video so far because I had to go buy digimon racing on ebay IMMEDIATELY. Thank you for bringing it's existence to my attention, I'll continue the video now
I really enjoyed the video mate.
oh lol I also picked up Z2 chaos on a complete lark and then was like "Yo, why is this kinda sick?"
oh hell yeah I was waiting for the point where you come to Z2 Chaos! I actualy played it and... it's actualy REALY fun
after seeing Origins... I think I need to look around and pick it up, I realy like the anime aestetics!
I remember playing the arcade version of Oneechanbara Z in Japan, and being astounded that a 3D beat-em-up could be put on a cabinet.
The cool thing about Kusoge is that at least they are honest with themselves, their audience and each other.
I love your videos soooooo much
Great vid.
You...might have just sold me on Onee Chanbara Origin. Well played.
I just finished Z2 Chaos 2 weeks ago and loved it 😃🤘
I totally getting into this games, I love the low budget grind house look of them
"this is oddly appropriate" 😂😂
Despite the video's title, you still baited me by lingering on EDF when describing what series the video was about before the Oneechanbara smash cut.
You know, I actually love Aya's outfit. I mean, the game was built with it in mind, but she's cool in every single move. And she makes it look amazing, as in posing and general movement.
Different when you make a cool female character and then force the design to be the generic "kya" bullshit the weebs are permanently craving, which I absolutely hate.
Because Aya is the girlboss. It's her choice and she owns it.
Everyone has different tastes. What sells is what sells
@@DianaTaffie just like Bayonetta. She knows she's sexy, and that influenced her playful and flirtatious personality.
@@DianaTaffie Uh, sorry, but wtf are you talking about? The game was developed by MEN, and MEN decided to do her like that, just like how Bayonetta isn't any empowerment symbol because she's just the fantasy of some nasty dude bro that thought sexualisation was "badass".
@@luizy6701 bro bayonetta was designed by a woman
I know the feel man, OneeChanbara is one of those games that you know is kinda bad, but you keep coming to them over and over again lol
This takes me back
Ayo where can I get my hands on Demolition Girl though
So, the best titles are Onechanbara BZS, Z2 Chaos and Origin, right?
Update: I played Z2 Chaos and Origin, awesome games!!!
Looks awesome
Oneechanbara! I have two of the games from this series I NEED THEM ALL NOW such a fun mindless guilty pleasure series
"I can't believe I've talked about the basically the same game 5 times"... Koei Tecmo would like to know your location
fucks me up how I used to hate austin but ever since last year or so the videos have been really good
Dude!!! I loved battle hunter!! Really didn’t know that it was in this “category” haha.
I can't believe this video was made after about a week of me buying origin. Admittedly, I was thinking of Matt's video from almost a year ago when I decided to buy it. Way more fun than I expected. Even if the parry timing feels like ass.
I think you get a more forgiving parry window if you're in the middle of a cool combo. I don't have any data for this, but it *felt* easier to parry when I was in the middle of a cool combo compared to just standing there.
18:00 Can we just take a moment to appreciate what a perfect usage of the word "blursed" we have here?
The anime art makes this game enticing to me. Looks really good with that cel shading
15:03
In less than one second I've been convinced that I need to google that
