Rance II

After the events of the first Rance game, he runs out of money and has to take a job in the town of Custom. It turns out that four witches have sealed Custom underground and it is up to Rance to save the day. Of course, all is not as it seems...

Rance II is the second game of the Rance series, made in 1990. The fan translation patch (found here) only works with the remake.

• The Cameo: Lia, Maris and Kanami from the first Rance come to gave Rance his Infinity+1 Sword.
• Cape Swish: Rance does this whenever he exits a store.

• Demonic Possession: The mayor's daughter was possessed by Ragithis during her sudden disappearance.
• Deus Sex Machina: It turns out that the rings are making the witches evil. Furthermore, the rings only work on virgins. Good thing the Hero is a serial rapist.
  • The Egyptian teleportation devices. The first one requires a panty flash. The second one requires naked breasts. The third one needs masturbation. And the forth one? Lesbian Sex!

• Indy Ploy: By Rance. He is able to get Mil Yorks to surrender by suddenly taking her sister (a current ally) hostage and holding a sword up to her neck. It works.
• The Ladette: Milly Yorks. Masculine speech patters, heavy drinker, bisexual and makes Rance feel like a loser in bed.
• Lady Not-Appearing-In-This-Game: The girl on the cover was supposed to appear in the game as Shizuka's half-sister, but they weren't able to put her in due to time restraints. She finally makes an appearance in Kichikuou Rance and Rance VI as Nagi su Ragarl.

  • When Rance finds out that Mil Yorks was actually a loli.
  • Also what happens once Elenoa Ran is freed from her ring.
• Naughty Nuns: Taken Up to Eleven with the nun at the church. She has sex with devils. She also doesn't care a whole lot about her job.
• Not So Fast Bucko: After defeating Shizuka, you finally gather all four rings, the town becomes un-sunk, and a celebration party is held in your name. Problem solved, right? Wrong! The Big Bad ends up taking the Phil rings from you while possessing the mayor's daughter. Also counts as Fission Mailed, as the following CG is a fake ending screen, with Rance proclaiming "Screw This, I'm Outta Here". And then he's roped into fighting the True Final Boss.
• One-Winged Angel: The Final Boss does this twice! He dies soon after the second time due to abusing his power too much.
