Bakumatsu Renka Shinsengumi Official Page

This is where it all started! A dating game on the Playstation 2 Console. It comes in a nice box, stationary notes and of course the game itself. The game is a Japan release only and is not available in our local stores. You may buy from YesAsia and Amazon Japan, however a warning, Japanese games does not play on US PS2s without modification.

This is a soundtrack with game music, including "Renka", the BRS theme song (as featured in the preview on the first page of this site!). Retail for this is around 2800-2900JPY and was released on 1/26/2005.
