Just checking if people here are interested in playing Japanese RPG's. Specifically the following ones:
Tenra Bansho Zero
Double Cross
Hm...I'm interested. What are the rules like?
Double Cross uses d10
Double Cross takes place in a modern world that is much like ours. It is not a perfect world. If anything, it is depressing. The world is plagued with war, disease, crime, and recession. Nonetheless, the common man continues with his mundane life, holding on to the happiness that he worked so hard to achieve. Everyone unconsciously expects that today will continue on to tomorrow.
You know this is not the case. You are aware that a virus called Renegade
has already warped the world.
Twenty years ago, a mystery virus called "Renegade" was spread across the
globe, infecting a large portion of the world population. When the virus becomes active in a host, it changes the DNA of the person and grants him supernatural powers.
The Renegade offers various powers, such as pyrokinesis, sonic speed,
lightning attacks, or superhuman regeneration. Some may be transformed into creatures of fantasy. The different powers of the Renegade are currently categorized into twelve different Syndromes.
It's your typical guys get superpower from this virus, but if you over use it, you can turn into a monster.
Tenra Bansho Zero uses d6
Tenra Bansho Zero is set in the world of Tenra: A rich world of high magic and technology, of the ancient side by side with the futuristic. A world of blood and steel, mired in an endless feudal war. There are over a dozen playable character types in the game, including mecha-pilot armour riders, soulgem-studded samurai, onmyoji taoist sorcerers, Buddhist monks of three different orders, skilled shinobi, kijin cyborgs, peerless killing robots, secretive Shinto agents, mysterious ayakashi monsters and more!
It's basically steampunk feudal japan/warring states setting
Double Cross sounds interesting. Also, nice picture.
Tenra Bansho Zero sounds pretty epic in my opinion. I feel I should bring up Mekton Zeta, Your futuristic anime mechas, A very fun system. Don't ask me for system, don't remember
If you could give a link to where we could look at the rules, that would be great. Tenro sounds like it could be a lot of fun.
I like Tenro as well.
I've tried looking for Mekton, but found no translation for it.
Well, I feel I should mention OVA. Extremely versatile, and you can use the abilities to basically make any anime character you want with a little "refluffing". I can tell you it is VERY fun. Mecha, fantasy, high school slice of life, you name it.
But if one can show me rules, I'm willing to go in for some others.
Will about the rulebook won't be easy lol, let's see what I can do to make it accessible.
Might end up posting the rules of character creation.
Really? We had one. Maybe we had a fan translation instead of an official copy. Hard to tell with PDFs
I'm 100% certain is not fancopy lol.

There's always BESM as well, for a generic feel.
Yeah there's that too.
Well I'm definitely interested in Tenra Bansho Zero or Double Cross if someone's running it. TBZ's admittedly a lot more interesting though and definitely room for a lot of fun character types.
