Play Super Gals! Kotobuki Ran 2 (Japan) Online

Punch rival gals in platform shoes, dodge cops with a melon soda in hand, and pull off ridiculous victory poses—pure early 2000s anime chaos in pixel form. The janky charm hits right if you remember Ran’s hair drills.

Game Overview

If you ever wanted to live out that early 2000s anime fantasy of being the toughest, trendiest girl in Shibuya, Super Gals! Kotobuki Ran 2 nails it. You play as Ran—platform shoes, short skirt, and all—punching through rival gals and delinquents in classic side-scrolling brawler style. The pixel art somehow makes her hair drills look even more ridiculous (in the best way).

Between fights, you’ll get these weird little mini-games like dancing battles or trying not to spill your melon soda while running from cops. It’s janky in that very Game Boy Color way, but the charm’s all there if you grew up with the anime. The dialogue’s entirely in Japanese, but honestly, Ran’s exaggerated "YAAAA!" noises and the over-the-top victory poses translate just fine.

Definitely one for the collectors or anyone who misses when anime games didn’t take themselves so seriously. Just don’t expect deep combat—this is pure, dumb, nostalgic fun.
