Busou Shinki - Battle Masters Mk II and Vic Viper Girls
Hello! Hope you guys and gals don't mind if I update you on a game and two figure releases? I'm getting hyped up! I'm getting closer to actually commanding my gals as one in Mk 2! I'm just missing Kohiru and Benio......Konami! Please! Please! Add Kohiru and Benio!
First off we have the Vic Viper Girls (according to the sources). From the looks of it, they take the form of a Macross-esque (or something more Japanese that I don't know of) with a mecha musume, flight mode, and robot mode.
What's your take on these gals? Like them? Hate them? Any thoughts you'd like to share?

Next up! Battle Masters - Mk II came out with a new OP movie!
My source was Crunchyroll. You can also see it on Konami - Battle Master's page.

And on a side-note: The OP and the singer caught my attention - MIQ (previously known as MIO) who sung some neat OP's. I even have her trailer music as my phone's ring tone because I can actually hear it.
- Dubine OP:
- Heavy Metal L-GAIM Opening:
- Sei Jushi Bismark Opening
- Gundam 0083 OP 2 [Men of Destiny]
Pretty sweet! I also saw some Infinite Stratos comments on the Crunchyroll and can see the similarities. I can also see the Vic Viper girls borrowing from IS. It seems natural to me because the one of the main reasons we got this far in our history was from borrowing from others; using others ideas as our inspiration to create our own "things".
- Note: Busou Shinki came before Infinite Stratos (simply to clarify).
I find both Vic Viper girls to be the ugliest colored and most boring armored shinkies yet (And I thought Raptias and Arilia were really bad). When I saw the colored ver of these 2 new girls I immediately took them off my wish list ^^;; As for the MKII's well, I'm happy with the normal release repaints. Can't take much more Strarf or Arnval and certainly not for a whopping $300.
I'm waiting for the biker chicks and hopefully something NEW later on...
Hmm....apparently a lot of people seem to be saying that but I can't find anything wrong with them. Ah well, I shall respect your opinion :D.
And ya, the biker shinkis are looking nice. Can't wait to see more.
To be a "bit" more positive, I do like their looks. ( could also use a few more mecha musumes, too ) On the Mk.2, Is there gonna be any English support? (Not that isn't an "incentive" for learning Japanese!)
Sadly, there's no new if there will be some english patch made by fans nor english version of the game. Only few JP games are made in english... So sad... But I think you'll be able to play well the BSBMII game even though it's in jap. Since it's direct fighting game not like the original BS game which is a turn based game that you need to read a lot for the attack commands.
*news*
I doubt there'll be any English in the dialogue. Some menu spots do have English though.
BTW VicVipers are the name of the craft in the Gradius games series.
I love the red one, simply because she has twin tails :P
Gets!!! But I will pass on Arnval and Starf Mk2 (£200 WTH!!!), That is my already my "hobby budget for the whole month. I've actually exceeded april and may estimates. Hopefully Vic Viper and Lord British(?) will not be exclusives.
If there are Vic Viper girls... I can has R-9A Arrowhead girl soon? XD
Just kidding; I like the Busou Shinki concept, but I'm not really into them.
R-Type reference eh? Sure! Either ask Konami or one of the fg-site modders :P
Maybe next time?
let's just see how things goes from now one... who knows.... maybe if the game has good sales (and enough people goes back to battle rondo ... yeah) maybe konami will think about an anime.... XD
hello btw!
I love Busou Shinki, and yes I also like Vic Viper Girls.
Just bought a PSP and the game last week, I spend 6000yen on Battle Rondo cash item.(current having trouble which CSC to insert to make my new Shinki strong)
I realized I had really spend too much money on these... T_T
mecha girl is always win for me ^^ the op is really awesome, it make me wanted to play the game so much^^
