Shikigami no Shiro/YMMV


 * Ho Yay: Almost everything Roger says in the third game is a not-so-thinly veiled come-on to his "best bud" Kohtaro.
 * Parodied with the Roger and Munchausen team-up. Their dialogue can be heard here.
 * On the other end of the spectrum, Mihee and Reika's team-up scenario ends with Mihee straight out declaring she'll take Reika as her wife, with Reika putting no more opposition than a complaint that she doesn't have the legal age to drink yet when invited to.
 * Macekre: When the first game in the series was released in the U.S., it was released under the title Mobile Light Force 2, with the implication that it was a sequel to a completely unrelated game (said game being Gunbird). The same localization team got a chance to do things right with Shikigami II, and that time they left the characters and setting intact, though still with a very dodgy translation.
 * Narm: Shikigami 2 has Resident Evil-caliber voice work and a translation that renders its dialogue all but incomprehensible. The results are comedy gold.
 * So Bad Its Good: Shikigami 2's astonishingly poor localization and dubbing have earned it something of a cult following, even among people who have never played the game.
 * Tear Jerker: Kohtaro's ending, Batu's ending, Emilio's ending, and Mihee's ending in Castle of Shikigami III.
