Tenchi wo Kurau is a solid, atypical brawler from Capcom. I really enjoy the Renegade-style left-right attack setup, and the charge attacks are really fun to use. Plus, the enemy waves are huge making the gameplay legitimately hectic. Unfortunately, the downside of this is that the sprites are super tiny. The music's good but not great.
