This is far and away my favorite one-on-one fighting game. While technique and strategy are indeed required if you want to get really good at it, the focus is placed mainly on the fast and furious action. There's no need to burn the midnight oil studying move lists or practicing combos; you can jump right into the fray and reap immediate enjoyment. The controls are perfect; the game feels fast and fresh, distinct from the many 16-bit SF2 clones. The soundtrack is great and two-player mode is a blast.
I know many people will write this title off because it's about high-school girls, but it probably isn't what you expect. It's not "naughty"; the character designs emphasize wackiness and distinctiveness over cuteness or sexiness, and all the girls have neat techniques to perform. Anyway, even if you're not into fighting games (I'm not a particularly huge fan of them, myself), you should give this one a try.
These aren't your usual high-maintenance high school girls.
My favorite is Karina, the biology student whose explosive pet frog helps her in battle.
Titular Asuka is Karina's main rival. I bet if the two teamed up they could take down Ryu and Ken, no problem.
