The Gairyu Isle (骸流島 Gairyūjima?) is a battle stage found in the 1994 game Samurai Shodown II. It has 2 phases: evening (骸流島・夕の刻 Gairyūjima - Yū no Koku?, Gairyu Island - Evening Time) where Haohmaru fights during Arcade or Versus modes, and night (骸流島・宵の刻 Gairyūjima - Yoi no Koku?, Gairyu Island - Night Time), where Ukyo Tachibana is the titular character.
Description[]
- Also see: Gairyu Isle
Same as the previous versions of this stage, once again the battle unfolds on a rocky ground, where the waves break when hitting the rocks (only during Haohmaru stage, there aren't strong waves in Ukyo stage). New to this stage is the addiction of a series of Torii (鳥居 lit. "bird abode") which lead to a building in the middle of the sea. At the left of the stage there is a woman (dressed with red Kimono during Haohmaru stage, and blue Kimono in Ukyo stage) watching the battle behind the pole (柱 Hashira) of a Torii. Mount Fuji looks very closely than previous Samurai Shodown game.
Musical themes[]
Haohmaru song for this stage is called "Path of Men" (男道 Dandō), and Ukyo theme is called "Moon Flower" (月の花 Tsuki no Hana).
