Kendo Rage, known in Japan as Makeruna! Makendō (負けるな!魔剣道, "Do Not Lose! Kendo Magic"), is an action video game for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System/Super Famicom by Datam Polystar. Seta U.S.A. published the English version.
Plot
The original Japanese version of the game stars a girl named Mai Tsurugino (剣野 舞 Tsurugino Mai). A spirit detective named Doro (ドロ) finds Mai and asks her to help him attack monsters. In the English-language version of the game, an American girl named Josephine "Jo" goes to Japan to attend a summer kendo school. Her personal trainer, Osaki "Bob" Yoritomo, asks her to fight monsters on the way to school.
Legacy
A fighting game follow-up titled Makeruna! Makendō 2: Kimero Youkai Souri was released for the Super Famicom and PlayStation. A role-playing video game titled Makeruna! Makendō Z was released for the PC-FX. An anime OVA series Makeruna! Makendo follows more closer to the original Japanese version of the game which features both Mai and her younger sister Hikari (the main character from the second game).
