Senran Kagura: Estival Versus
A 2015 videogame about ninjas on a beach, the sixth instalment of the Senran Kagura series.
Ninjas from four different ninja academies are teleported to a mysterious island, by Sayuri, Asuka's grandmother, to take part of the Kagura Millennium Festival, an event where the soul of shinobi who died in vain can be put to rest. The Festival also includes a competition between the ninja academies and a group of overseers to compete for a prize said to be "the road to Kagura", the highest rank a shinobi can achieve.
But are things really what they appear to be when our heroes were forced to appear on this place, and can't leave until the festival is over?

Tropes used in Senran Kagura: Estival Versus include:
- Actor Allusion: Ryouki is voiced by Kikuko Inoue, an voice actress known to always answer what her age is as "17"(she was 51 when this game was launched). Ryouki's age is, of course, 17.
- Ass Shove: Sayuri threatens to do that to anyone who even implies she's old, despite the fact she appears to be 70 at best.
- Back From the Dead: Ryouki says something like that happened to her when she talks for the first time but Sayuri explains later that she's only there so her soul can be put to rest as part of the Festival.
- Fanservice: Series's trademark. You see Ryouna's panties in less than five minutes and things just get, ahn, better from there.
- Fragile Speedster: Frantic Mode increases the character's ability to damage their opponents, but also reduces its defense.
- Instrument of Murder: Renka uses drums as weapons.
- Running Gag: People calling Sayuri old or elderly, and she answering by saying she's gonna shove her foot down their "bahonkas".
- Shock and Awe: Renka is able to manipulate electricity using her drums.
