THAT FIRST LINE GOES SO FUCKIN HARD

Everything in this 2nd part is a great improvement in every way, menus, animation, (can I say dialogues?)

realy good music

What a classic

Amazing sequel! Brings back a lot of memories. The music's perfect for driving late at night.

Certainly an improvement over the last one. The animation seems somewhat better, but I might be imagining that. The action was a lot faster with the pace, and even more strategic. I really love how the ninja grabs people all the time, that's martial arts for you. His moves are really cool and he always seems to have a believable way to get through a room. John doesn't feel useless either. I like the original character designs too, and I like the way characters communicate. It's so charming. Some nice art considering when this came out, and I loved the moment he killed that guy off-screen. That gem power he has is also cool, I like how he doesn't overuse it. The story is interesting, if a little complicated. I would prefer for it to be told more visually, but it's classic madness fanfic stuff. I get what the times were like. The music was really great and fitting, too. Only thing i didn't like here - Arashikage was underwhelming. Again. I liked his zombie gore and the grenade thing was fun, but he died very easily.
Overall another cool movie, one of the best tributes of the old age, if not the best. You were almost on par with Krinkels in terms of strategy and visual presentation.
