(I was able to understand your comment thanks to the translation feature on the TH-cam app. I'll reply in English.) I'm a VF fan from abroad (France), and I'm fascinated by the Goiken games. There are many fighting games with full-sized teams and budgets that are much worse. Just the animation is incredible for a small team, the punk/delinquent aesthetic is one I loved in Last Bronx, and even the female characters aren't embarrassing, which is rare. There's even a trans/non-binary gender character, which is exceptional for a Japanese fighting game in the 1990s. One thing I find even more incredible is that VF influenced the moves in Goiken, but then Goiken seemingly influenced VF in turn. Several moves in VF4 and later resemble moves from Goiken (for instance, Kei/Brad's PPPK) and it's enough moves that I think it's intentional. Finally, I'm personally really fond of games like Goiken and MOW, where the story is all set around one location, and not around the world. (I've tried to phrase my comment in a way that can easily be auto-translated to Japanese.)
Au top mon poto.
日本以外の方がこのゲームをどう感じるのか、気になる
面白そうなのかな?
