Hack and slash with a bikini-clad heroine cutting zombies with a katana. Deliberately quirky and cathartic concept, no great depth.

Collector interest

A Japanese hack and slash from the OneChanbara series, where scantily clad fighters carve through hordes of zombies on a deliberately over-the-top tone. Its collector interest lies in the franchise's unabashed B-movie aura and its status as a cult guilty pleasure among a niche audience, sought by genre fans and collectors of uninhibited PSP-era titles. Rarity tied to a targeted rather than mass distribution.

A questionable morality

Slicing through hordes of zombies with a katana while clad in nothing but a bikini and a cowboy hat sums up the programme rather well. The survival-horror premise quickly dissolves into a riot of festive gore and a none-too-shy camera, and you chainsaw the undead in a cheerful one-upmanship where seriousness was clearly never on the guest list.
