Hi-sCool Seha Girls episodes 5-8

This set of episodes start off with possibly the weakest one in the entire series.  Dreamcast, Saturn and Mega Drive are tasked with trying to come up with new games by using an existing property. In this case "Puyo Puyo". An old puzzle game made by sega.  Never really played this game  since I was more into Tetris and  the various clones.  The only Sega puzzle game I actually did play in the arcade was a Sakura Taisen/Wars themed puzzle game.

Seems there are Puyo, Puyo related games released for current smartphones but only available in Japan.


Moving onto episode 6 ...

We get to see a fairly more modern Sega game. Border Break, A mech/combat game. released in Japan and Asia about 5 years ago  Showing that while Sega may no longer be making home console systems they still do develop Arcade machines. From  how it looked in the show, it seems like an evolution the Virtual-On  game series. This episode gave me that Halo Red vs Blue vibe (early seasons)  so much! if you  enjoy that show you might find this episode interesting.

Impressions on Hi-sCool Seha Girls episodes 2-4 fighting and dancing

I watched the initial episode earlier this year and after putting this series on hold for a good while I decided to continue watching by binge watching the next few episodes. Since each episode is short (just over 11 minutes w/ the intro/outro) it's easier to do than other shows.


The second episode of  Hi-sCool Seha Girls is dedicated to Sega's 3D fighting series "Virtua Fighter". The animators recreate the original graphics and animations. Dreamcast, Saturn and Mega Drive look so much better in comparison. I'm guessing this is why We have CGI main characters. Goes better when the girls go into the other Sega game worlds...

Started Watching: Hi Scool Seha Girls

I got done watching the first episode of the show and it's actually kind of fun if you owned or know of Sega's gaming history before they stopped making Video Game consoles. I love how they introduce Dreamcast and go one my selling points is that I can access the Internet.

Sega DremCast girl reminds me way too much of the Space Channel Five protagonist. The first episode introduced only some of the personified Sega gaming consoles... DreamCast, Saturn, Mega Drive ( What Genesis is called in Japan and Europe.) Looks like the next Episode will be dealing with the fighting game Virtua Fighter. I owned this game on the PC. Akira and that Ninja dude were my preferred fighters.

So I pick a show from 2014 to start watching it's very Retro/Historical. One Down 12 more eps to go.
