A friend of mine's been saying for years that Precure would rock as a Musou game.

Precure as Musou game? Why didn't I think of that, that'd be amazing!

I voted for Tales, but seeing Touken Ranbu get a big game treatment like this would be amazing.

I don't mean to overly insult anyone, but i've noticed a trend that when a Fujoshi targeting title goes up vs a number of more main stream titles, the Fujoshi title tend to win due to said fans uniting where the other titles split the rest of the votes. Kinda like 3rd parties in elections...

It's mahou shoujo tokusatsu show.
Of course it will be awesome as Musou-style game.

A Final Fantasy Musou would be fun. I picture it as a Dissidia esque game except with more numbers around lol.

When the director of Shin Megami Tensei said "Get in touch with us" for his response to a musou game, my heart skipped a beat, man. I NEED an SMT musou. A Persona musou would be okay, but I feel like it would be limited compared to SMT in terms of cool factor.

I put in my votes for Symphogear, Cross Ange, Atelier (including Mana Khemia) and Ar Tonelico. Though, now that I think about it, Densetsu no Yuusha no Densetsu and Zettai Karen Children would make great Musou games.

I am still waiting for my Shin Sangoku Musou movie/tv show, though...

Fairy Tail and Fire Emblem would be good musou games. Varied stories, characters and skills would make for a fun time.

Well, because why don't they make a game based on the Chinese warring states era? They had one for the Japanese warring states (samurai warriors)

Because it's already been done 8+ times. Sengoku Musou (Samurai Warriors) is a spinoff of Shin Sangoku Musou (Dynasty Warriors).

slightly off topic, but .... will there ever be any Touken Ranbu release in English? It is so popular on the internet, has some great characters, and sadly the West is left out again.

as of now there's no news, though Toukenran is very popular in Japan, if there'll be no future English release, let's just hope that they would adapt it into anime just like what they did to Kancolle.

Atelier is inevitable with KT as their parent company now (and it could work wonderfully).

I would love a PreCure Musou, if they keep in mind target audience of the franchise and why it works now. There are plenty of older/adult (women and men) that love it, but I still think it should be about PreCure and what that is as a series more than the usual Musou game. (They did well translating LoZ though!)
