Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! by iNiS (2005)

Today I wanna cheer you up with this quirky Japanese release, developed by the team that brought us Gitaroo-Man. Your mission: Go, fight, and cheer up everyone who is in trouble through music. In 15 different bizarre settings, you’ ll meet people in need, like for example a pottery master who has lost inspiration to create unique works. Every setting is accompanied by a specific, well-known j-pop-song. For what it`s worth, most of the scenarios and the style of the characters are inspired by Japanese pop culture. So, if you are into mangas, you’ ll love it! Like many other rhythm games, Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! is a follow-the-pattern challenge that matches the beat of the song that’s being played. During the song, a series of numbered circles pop up on-screen, and it’s your task tapping the circle to the rhythm of the song.
