Play Sakigake!! Otoko Juku - Shippuu Ichi Gou Sei (Japan) Online Free

Sakigake!! Otokojuku: Shippu Ichi-gou Sei is a side-scrolling action game based on the manga *Sakigake!! Otokojuku*. Developed by TOSE and published by Bandai exclusively for the NES on March 3, 1989, it is set in Otokojuku, a private boys’ school for delinquent teens that trains students to become contributing, upstanding men through rigorous martial arts. Players choose from four leads: Momotaro Tsurugi, Ryuji Toramaru, J, and Genji Togashi. Gameplay is mostly side-scrolling but switches to a depth-based view like *Double Dragon* or *Final Fight* during boss fights. The story spans battles from the Otokojuku campus to Tendou Shrine, following manga arcs from the "Four Terrifying Trials" to the "Great Earthshaking Unified Eight Conquest Arc." It also features the "Otokojuku Cheer Squad" system to boost character stats. Notably, its main theme is an 8-bit chiptune version of the anime opening "Kegareta Kanashimi," with the first battle track also being an arrangement of the song.
