Japanator LIVE: Shantae: Half-Genie Hero is about to take us on a magic carpet ride

We're about to see a whole new world

[Update: The stream is over, but you can watch it here.]

It's time for us to go back to our time with Shantae: Half-Genie Hero, and we might be going through a segment where we ride on magic carpets. My guess is that it has to do with the part in one of the trailers where Shantae is jumping from rug to rug while whipping those in her way.

Since our the half-genie hero is already acquainted with the series' main cast, I can assume that it takes place after Shantae and the Pirate's Curse. Also, it was nice to see a few references to the original Shantae title on the Gameboy Color, such as the game's first stage and the return of the spider transformation.

Once we overcome the game's racing area, it'll be a fun treat to see the types of new locations near Scuttle Town. Along the way, Shantae will use her hair to whip the enemies into good shape as we bring order to the whole land.
