Play Makeruna! Makendou 2 - Kimero! Youkai Souridaijin (Japan) Online

Makeruna! Makendou 2 came out in 1995 for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, developed by Irem. It was one of those quirky, lesser known fighting games that showed up late in the SNES library, offering something a little different from the usual Street Fighter or Fatal Fury clones. The game leans into Japanese folklore, pitting wrestlers against yokai in a series of one on one matches.

You control a human wrestler trying to defeat supernatural opponents across various stages. The main goal is to win each match by depleting the opponent's health bar or throwing them out of the ring. Signature mechanics include grappling and throwing yokai, dodging projectiles like umbrella spirits, and timing counters against heavy attacks from oni. Matches are fast and unpredictable, with an emphasis on reaction and reading the opponent's moves. It feels like a frantic, slightly unpolished brawl where every match keeps you on your toes.
