Senko No Ronde 2 Cast Revealed
Shooter specialist G.rev let slip the other day that Senko no Ronde 2 was in the works, revealing two new gender ambiguous additions to the cast of fighters. Now, courtesy of Yahoo! Japan blog Gemaga, we know a half-dozen characters who will comprise a portion of the roster. As fans of the first can see, gender confusion runs amok yet again, as Cuilan returns and a character known as ??? blurs the line between the sexes. Someone at G.rev should be made to pay for this.

G.rev Goes Ahead With Senko No Ronde 2, More Gender Confusion
The Naomi based fighter-shmup Senko no Ronde eventually wound up on the Xbox 360, arriving in the West as WarTech: Senko no Ronde. It didn't do particularly well with critics or buyers, which seems odd considering its can't-miss formula of gender neutral anime teens piloting robots that shoot pastels lasers at each other. Still, developer G.rev is giving it another go, it seems, as an arcade sequel tentatively known as Senko No Ronde 2 is due to arrive in Japan next year. A teaser image featuring Lev Lefanu (left) and Henri Xia Xiaotien (right) is all that we've seen so far—another very blurry character is shown in a second pic—but we have little in the way of details beyond that. Anyone willing to wager the sexes of these two new additions? I'm withholding judgment for now.

Clip: Battle Storm: Senko No Ronde
Now this a game that the bums I sometimes call friends can sit down and be "entertained" by for at least a couple of hours after they go into a spacecake-induced coma while visiting me in Amsterdam. I, however, can appreciate it sober because I'm cool. More »11:40 AM on Wed Apr 4 2007

Senko no Ronde Gets Hump Pillows
I'll admit I have a bit of a Senko no Ronde obsessive streak. But my interest in the game starts and stops with playing it. And maybe securing a Sanjo Sakurako P2 costume gashapon, but that's really as far as it goes. Fortunately for the otaku crowd with crippling shyness/unrealistic female expectations, G.rev is releasing a pair of "holding" pillows featuring two of the game's loveliest ladies. Fully reclined, lightly dressed, and ready to be "held", Changpo and Ernula adorn the 107 x 45 cm (42 x 17.5 inches) pillow cases. They'll set you back a hefty 8400 yen (about $70) when they ship in March. They should be washed in warm water with non-chlorine bleach and dried on low heat, following... use.

Ubisoft Bringing Senko no Ronde For 360 Over?
Released last summer in Japan for the Xbox 360 and summarily over-pimped by yours truly, G.rev's hybrid shmup-fighter hasn't shown up on any Western release lists. Until now. More » -

Senko No Ronde: 10 Minutes Of Hot Shmupping
One of the disadvantages to being Weekend Editor, is that when something pops up during the weekday that I'm really psyched for, I have to wait until Saturday morning to gush about it. The other downer is that none of the other editors seem to give two squirts about Senko no Ronde Rev. X for the Xbox 360. Jerks! More »1:35 PM on Sat Aug 26 2006

Senko No Ronde For Xbox 360 Site Love
If you've been reading Kotaku weekends for the past four months, you might notice a dearth of Xbox 360 content. It's not that I'm biased against Microsoft, just apathetic. Frankly, I'm more often into games from Japan, a region in which the Xbox family has noticeably struggled (plus they still haven't sent that complimentary 360 to my house). So when something as wacky and, well, plainly Japanese like Senko no Ronde gets the Xbox 360 console treatment, I'm forced to start paying attention. More »9:15 PM on Sat Jun 24 2006

Senko no Ronde Gets Date, Looks Pretty
G.rev, creator of fine shoot 'em ups like Under Defeat and Border Down (who and huh?), were a bit of a surprise developer in Microsoft's stable. They were, after all, focused on Sega's aging Dreamcast and Naomi hardware. But that doesn't mean they can't make Xbox 360 games, and make them look mighty pretty! More »7:54 AM on Sat Mar 4 2006
