Megazone 23 - Part II (1986)
That’s supposed to be from Megazone?
It is Megazone.
At this rate, I won’t be interested into shmups anymore. I am no longer going to be active in this forum from now on. I am more interested into Kemono Friends, rhythm games, D4DJ, Puzzle Games, Hololive, and Pretty Cure.

Farewell.

Oops! I didn't see those posts until after I posted mine. I just jumped straight to this page to the bottom to reply with the same picture. My bad.

Uh, guys... You need to check out High Score Girl. It’s a rom-com anime set in 1991 about a gamer who meets a female gamer. Both of them are huge fans of Street Fighter II. Watching the opening, I already saw footage of RayForce, Metal Black, Ikari Warriors, Darius II, The Ninja Warriors, and many others. That anime seems like a love letter to retro gamers.

Rabio Lepus? Gradius? Metal Black? Son Son? Raiden? Viper Phase 1? Dragon Spirt? Rayforce? Wow, the 90s era of Anime was heck of a good time with these retro shmups. Don't expect to see more of these on modern anime(at least for Pop Team Epic), just the ones from the 80s-90s.

This anime you're talking about is from 2018, it's still airing.

I've been trying to build a page with all Gradius references: https://gradius.wikia.com/wiki/Gradius_ ... ther_media

The hardest part is trying to find the context of those (like, which episode they appear).

Good. But you might have forgotten Pop Team Epic.
See this video:Pop Team Epic Episode 3 References

Skip to 03:49 on that video. It mentions “Gradius Vic Viper”.

Hayate no Gotoku! (Hayate the Combat Butler)

Which also has some other shmup references that I have to go dig out at some point.

There's your proof that Konami hates its own franchises that isn't Metal Gear.

In all fairness, High Score Girl is basically a walking arcade game homage.

Be warned though, the story isn't good. It all devolves into some sob lovestory.

Did you guys see more High Score Girl on Netflix? I saw Haruo playing the very first DonPachi game.
