Line 6:
''Bujingai: Swordmaster'', released in some areas as ''Bujingai: The Forsaken City'', is a fairly obscure [[Hack and Slash]] game based on [[Wuxia]] and set mostly in a [[After the End|post-apocalyptic]] world occupied by demons. Its main character, Lao, is based on, is voiced by and uses motion capture of [[Gackt]], who also helped write the storyline.
An interesting side note: This is one of the games that [[Touhou Project|ZUN]] worked on during his nebulous 'day job' as a programmer.

{{tropelist}}
* [[The Archer]]: Lao can open his [[Big Fancy Sword|sword's]] blade and form a magical bow. He even uses the other sword as an arrow when finishing off one of the bosses.
* [[Arrogant Kung Fu Guy]]: Rei.
* [[Attack of the 50
* [[BFS]]: Lao's swords, based on a Dadao and a Jian. Also the penultimate boss.
* [[Blow You Away]]: The ''Senranken'' magic.
Line 21:
* [[Death From Above]]: ''Tenseiken'', the slowest yet strongest magic in Lao's arsenal.
* [[Death of a Thousand Cuts]]: ''Jinbuken'' summons a barrage of flying blades that surrounds Lao and hit his enemies.
* [[Dual
* [[Dude Looks Like a Lady]]: Imagine Lao as [[Gackt]] wearing Chinese clothes, earrings and dark purple lipstick.
* [[Excuse Plot]]: Screw the plot!! Just go around hacking away at demons for fun!
* [[Face Heel Turn]]: Rei, after {{spoiler|witnessing Yohfa's death}}.
* [[Final Boss, New Dimension]]: The final battle takes place on a newly created small planet in the/a demon-dimension, which is then sliced in half in order to form a proper platform.
* [[Final Exam Boss]]: Both of the last two bosses require you to use basically every skill you've acquired. There's also a sort of final exam stage in the form of the penultimate level (see [[Platform Hell]] below), a series of platforms in the demon-dimension with a cloud motif.
* [[Fireballs]]: ''Gouenken!''
Line 34:
* [[In a Single Bound]]: No kidding, you can double jump, run on walls and even glide from one platform to the next.

* [[Mirror Boss]]: {{spoiler|Master Naguri's spirit}} fights Lao to test his skills.
* [[The Only One Allowed to Defeat You]]: While he has no problem using minions, Rei takes on a hint of this {{spoiler|during the final battle}}. If you would lose by falling off the stage, he'll catch Lao and throw him back into the ring ([[Gameplay and Story Segregation|unless your health is almost completely gone]]).

* [[Our Demons Are Different]]: Demons are the main enemies of the game, aside from reanimated corpses and Rei, but they're not the conventional western sort of demon.
* [[Our Monsters Are Weird]]: The most common demons resemble some sort of flesh puppets with swords and a paper charm on their face. Many of the stronger demons look even stranger.
** The default puppet-ish demons [[Justified Trope|might base their appearance on]] [
* [[Platform Hell]]: In the last level, you must navigate several platforms above the clouds in order to reach a mystical temple.
