Sentoki 2

戦闘機 Sentoki 2  (戦闘機 sentoki; fighter)  is a 3D fighting game developed by Orange Soft and published by ACS Softworks. It is the sequel to Sentoki: The Strongest Warrior. Released in 2000 for Arcades (ACS System 201) and the PlayStation 2 as an exclusive title.

In 2013, the game was re-released for the  Samsung Zeo  as a downloadable title for its LIVEPLAY Store.

Gameplay
Stages are more wider, allowing for free movement, and include certain obstacles such as breakable objects and destructible walls that can be used to reveal new fighting areas within the stage. Also, some stages are semi-walled, while others include slants or uneven terrain. Because of these changes, winning by Out of Ring is also removed from the game

New features in the game include Wall Jump, a special maneuver which can be done while cornered to a wall, with each character being able to perform certain attacks during a walljump such as a diving punch or a jump kick, and Reaction Counters, a special counterattacking technique that works similar to the Alpha Counters in the Street Fighter Alpha series.

Each character now has four outfits instead of just three, with two available from the start, while the other two can be unlocked by finishing Arcade and Story mode with said character, respectively.

Story
After destroying Antares near the end of the first tournament, Shin Ikushima attempted to find the CEO of Orion Corporation, Ranzou Kihara, in order to finish him off.

However, when he went to the chairman's office, there was no Ranzou, but only a young girl inside a cryosleep chamber. Shin then releases the girl from the chamber and runs off. After this, Shin decided to adopt the girl, naming her Kei.

Ten years later, Kei, under guidance from Shin, grows up to become a beautiful young lady, and an accomplished black belt in Karate. Kei had no memory of her past prior to Shin saving her, but this did not bother her one bit.

Until one day, Kei encounters a mysterious woman named Eileen Shore, who seemed to know a lot about her. Eileen told Kei about the Orion Corporation and how Ranzou Kihara is the one holding the answers to her missing past, before leaving Kei behind, never returning.

Several months after Kei's run-in with Eileen Shore, Orion announced the second Sentoki Global Martial Arts tournament. Kei, along with her guardian and master Shin, joins the tournament in order to find more about her past.
