As is known by all, the ultimate expression of youthful Japanese manliness is found in the traditional Bancho ideal. A bancho, or gang leader, is...well, Atlus really explains it the best. In its "Intro to Banchosity," a bancho is:
"Raw badass, distilled to its purest form, wrapped in a hard shell of sweetdiculousness and smothered with awesomesauce."
That is a way to make something my jam, baby. That, and other essential bancho-related termsare defined in equally vivid detail on the game's homepage. The PSP game is due out on November 10th, 2009.
Thanks to Atlus, there is now another, thankfully more convenient way to experience bancho badassery. The other, much more rewarding way? Join an ouendan.
