It's hard to put this experience into a clearcut statement, that is, until the epiphany hit me: playing No More Heroes 2 is like stepping into the best god damn B-Movie ever created."
Half-Glass Gaming: "Travis Touchdown is awesome, and he’s a huge reason No More Heroes is so great. That said, series creator and director Suda51 said he would be open to making a spinoff starring fan-favorite Shinobu. And though the series’ fate isn’t entirely up to Suda [as he doesn't own the IP], a sans-Travis entry could definitely work."
NMH seems to revolve around Travis like DMC revolves around Dante, GoW revolves around Kratos, Ninja Gaiden revolves around Ryu, and Bayonetta revolves around well…
It wouldn’t feel right to have these kind of action games to not have their main character in the lead role or not present at all
If PC is your only platform for No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle, don't pass it up; if you have a Wii or a Switch, grab it there.
Following a port to the Nintendo Switch in 2020, SUDA51’s cult hack-and-slash games receive a surprising but welcome PC release.

Well put.
There are some layers of subtlety with social criticism and outright satire, but it's all wrapped up in the equivalent of a very well done B-movie. Think Tarantino.
