Tengai Makyou II: Manjimaru

Overview

Tengai Makyou II: Manjimaru is the sequel to Tengai Makyou: Ziria, and is a turn-based RPG originally developed by RED Company and was first released on the PC Engine CD in 1992. In 2003, the title was remade for the Gamecube and Playstation 2, and featured 3D models and environments, full motion video for cutscenes, and an enhanced soundtrack. In 2006, the Nintendo DS saw a port of the PC Engine original, which boasted optional stylus control, as well as the enhanced music from the remakes. The game saw one more release in 2008 on the PSP as part of a compilation package.
 

Censorship

The original PC Engine game featured a bloody cutscene in which a character has her arm violently ripped off and face slashed. This scene was modified in the Gamecube, Playstation 2, DS and PSP releases to show less violence.
 
A CG where a female character's erect nipples had been slightly visible through her clothing was also altered in the ports and remakes.
 

Soundtrack

The soundtrack of the game was composed by Joe Hisaishi and Hirohiko Fukuda. The initial OST for the original title was released in Japan on 
February 1st, 1992. A remastered OST, used in both the Gamecube and Playstation 2 remakes, was released in the same territory on October 22nd, 2003.
