I love this song so much...I just wonder who the hell is pitching these plastic cups, light bulbs, and barrels full of bombs at him xD where are they getting all this stuff from...
For some reason, this song always sounds like the theme of some anime to me. I wouldn't be surprised if that's where the song comes from, either. The English version sounds less anime-ish, but still....
I thought that everything between the two versions was just as good, but then I hear THIS SONG. Holy crap. Why couldn't they sing like this in the english version?
Yeah, as of now, its only in Japanese, its localized English version was supposed to come out last year, but it has been rumoured to be delayed till Nov 2009!
The first result in a dictionary for the kanji after "Karate" is "house", but it can also mean "master of a martial art" or something like that, in which case it's read as "ka".
You know, this game would work great on the Wii.
Press A to punch the pots and the lightbulbs.
For the barrels, hold A to punch and then press B (with A still held) to kick.

The title should be Punch Kick!
sparkles9001 2 years ago
@sparkles9001 That IS the title. Technically.
But it's listed as "PunchuKii" because the voice in the game sounds like they say Punch Kii!

One of the biggest gripes in the US version is that the songs were done poorly.
slicedoranges 2 years ago 3
I disagree....
The only two I felt was poor was Fan Club and the Dazzles.
Plus Frog Hop was almost as good as the original.

Is it just me, or does his kicking foot look like a hand or that it has a few extra toes?

He has 5 toes...but maybe its because I'm so used to seeing 4 fingers and toes in drawings taht when I see 5, it looks weird.

This is definitely my favourite game in Rhythm Tonguku Gold/Rhythm Heaven/Rhythm Paradise. (Depending on where on Earth you hang your hat)
I like how in the European version you get English, German and French versions of the song if you change the system language.
