Ó

I am not much of a dancer, but I am an anime and JMusic fan. And I would have to give it up to MonkeyBoy1916 for making the right choice in which anime to feature as well as the songs. But I am getting ahead of myself right here, so let's start with what exactly MonkeyBoy1916 has done.

This is a mod for arguably one of the best looking homebrew out there, the PSP Revolution by DeNitro and Devin923. This mod will make the Otas in Akihabara get up and dance, because it includes anime menus and songs. I also liked the Japanese characters on the upper left side of the screen when you're making your choice for the theme you're going to use as well as other options that are available. Nice touch.

OpeningUI


YuYu Hakusho (Ghost Files/Poltergeist Report)

This is one manga/anime that I'll never get tired of watching. It's about a tough high school kid, Yusuke Urameshi, being chosen to be one of the lead detectives of the spirit world. He meets allies along the way like his rival Kazuma Kuwabara, Fire Demon Hiei and soft spoken demon Kurama. Yuseke's special weapon is the Rei Gun.

YYH 001YYH 002


In this game you'll hear the familiar opening theme in its native Japanese by Mawatari Matsuko sung by Seiyuu Megumi Ogata titled Hohoemi no Bakudan [Arigato Gozaimasu!] (Smile Explosion [Thank You Very Much!]). But I think that the background could use some more editing since it's showing up pixelized. And I'd also make the background a shade lighter.

Neon Genesis Evangelion

This is a very interesting one. A mixture of cute and tough. The "Second Impact" wiped out the world's population and by 2015, the world is still under restoration when mysterious entities called "Angels" suddenly strike Tokyo-3, a specially planned city under construction in the Hakone area. NERV, a United Nations special agency, reactivate their multi-purpose humanoid fighting machines, "Evangelions" with 14-year-old youngsters at the helm.

EVA 001EVA 002


At first I wasn't sure if the slow opening theme titled A Cruel Angel's Thesis sung by Yoko Takahashi was a good choice for a song to "dance" to. But after increasing the level of difficulty, my doubts all went down the drain. In the second song, Asuka's theme, I just thought that the background used could have been a little less somber since the song was an upbeat one.

InuYasha

Some people thought that after a while, the anime (as well as the manga) got a little bit dragging, because of too much fillers. And I think Naruto is suffering the same fate, but that's just me. Anyway, InuYasha is a shounen action adventure romantic comedy, with elements from the horror genre. Since, it's shounen, this is one is for the chics, eventhough shounen means young boy in Japanese.

InuYasha 001InuYasha 002


I'd have to be biased on this one, because Do As Infinity is one of my favorite bands. Too bad they've already broken up. And Amuro Namie, in her own words, is the Queen of Hip-Pop. Enough said.

Full Metal Alchemist

I have just recently been into this anime and I must say, it is a very good one. Eventhough the characters are all cute and cuddly, the underlying plot in every episode is quite mature. Of course there is the general theme of love, friendship, brotherhood, etcetera.

FMA 001FMA 002FMA 003


I was a little bit disappointed that instead of Laruku's   it was Link that was included. In my opinion RSG would have made a better dance tune. And Hyde's voice was much better in that one. I probably made the biggest effort to hopefully, last a little longer in the game because I want to hear Asian Kung Fu Generation's Rewrite in full. And maybe the best background image of the bunch is in this pack.

Just download the file and install it like your regular game. I had some trouble making it show in IR Shell, maybe you could just rename the folders to avoid having the same trouble. And let us end this article with some words from Monkeyboy1916:

I just released this, i got permission from the creator to mod it aswell, It is a modded version of PSP Revolution 2, it has all anime menus and songs, hope you will put it up, i know alot of people that are looking forward to it. Thx

P.S. I would like to thank FlammingCowz of psp3d for helping me get the required files to make the beats, if it wasnt for him, it would have taken me forever to make them.

Can we make themes with other graphics in PSPR? I don't think mod just an arrow, failed screen and playing area are enough for me.

 » Can we make our own?

Is there any way we could make our own image/song/arrow combos a la Flash Flash Revolution? I would kill for a Haruhi or Fate/Stay Night version of this...

 » steps

the steps don't match the music/song would have been better if the step goes with the song.

 » Yo "guy" on the FIRST Post

You're Just A ***** who Watches Powerpuff Girls and other Stupid Cartoon that are Pointless, you'd probably only like them retarded cartoon that has nothing to do with action and violents.
