New screenshots for J-Stars Victory Vs. depict last month’s newcomers Taro Yamada and Jaguar Junichi in action. Taro (the almost naked man in tiger-stripe underwear) is a playable character who stars in the manga Chinyūki: Tarō to Yukai na Nakama-tachi. Jaguar Junichi (the red-haired man in a white suit) is a support character who stars in the manga Pyu to Fuku! Jaguar. In-game, Jaguar appears to wield a giant bowl of ramen as well as his recorder. One can only wonder how this will affect the young Jinchūriki Naruto.
Earlier, Namco Bandai Games released screenshots of the Dark Tournament Stadium from YuYu Hakusho.
