1* BreatherBoss: Dr. Tea Water (and his entire stage, a BreatherLevel). Unlike previous stages where you need to fight your way through legions of enemies, you simply hop on a speedboat and cruise full speed ahead through a tube full of easy-to-kill ninja mooks, with a surprisingly generous amount of health pickups on the way. Dr. Water is also the only GetBackHereBoss who spends the fight fleeing on a speedboat, occasionally dropping easily-avoidable mines while barely having any defense and having ''only 1'' health bar. You ''do'' need to defeat him [[TimeLimitBoss within 40 seconds]], but even if Dr. Tea Water got away, you suffer no penalties (except being denied the usual point bonus for defeating a boss).
2* HilariousInHindsight: Ginzu is essentially this game's equivalent to [[VideoGame/FinalFight Guy]]. The two would be featured later in ''Namco x Capcom'', forming a GameBreaker team.
3* PortingDisaster: While leaps and bounds better than the butchered ''VideoGame/FinalFight'' port, the Platform/SuperNintendoEntertainmentSystem version is still lacking in terms of animation and number of enemies on screen. Furthermore, ridable mechs are no longer in the game, and it is also heavily [[{{Bowdlerise}} censored]], with a number of death animations being cut, while female mooks are dressed more modestly.
4* SNKBoss: Scumocide is a non-fighting game example. He maintains a near constant position floating ''just'' out of reach of the player's attacks, even [[MyRulesAreNotYourRules moving through sections of his arena that the player cannot]] to do so, while pelting them with balls of fire and ice that do obscene amounts of damage per hit. Should the player be doing well enough to get his health down to a sufficient enough number, he will then begin intermittently executing an attack which fills the arena with explosions just to make your day that much worse.
5* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: As pointed out in ''WebVideo/JamesAndMikeMondays'', one section of the melody on the Ninja House level sounds like one of the cutscene tracks in ''VideoGame/NinjaGaiden''. It's possible it was a deliberate parody due to the level's subject matter.
