Black Hole Assault
is a fighting video game developed by Micronet co., Ltd. for the Sega Mega-CD in 1992. The game is the sequel to Micronet's Heavy Nova, though focusing entirely on Fighting Game elements. Story It has been forty years since Humans fought the Akirovians, a race of aliens who had previously aided Earth's dying atmosphere as well as Human technology only to enslave humanity. Since then, Humans have ventured deep into space in order to gather more resources from the planets for Earth's still-threatened natural resources. Several resource ships sent out to acquire these minerals, but many of them are destroyed under mysterious circumstances. Captain Graine aboard the Defcon-2 realizes the destruction of each ship is too calculated and, upon further investigation of the issue, discovers the accidents are actually attacks from the Akirovians.

Outside of Japan and in English, ''anime'' refers specifically to animation produced in Japan.

Fighting Games
A fighting game, also known as a versus fighting game, is a genre of video game that involves combat between two or more players. Fighting game combat often features mechanics such as blocking, grappling, counter-attacking, and chaining attacks together into " combos". Characters generally engage in battle using hand-to-hand combat—often some form of martial arts. The fighting game genre is related to, but distinct from, the beat 'em up genre, which pits large numbers of computer-controlled enemies against one or more player characters. Battles in fighting games usually take place in a fixed-size arena along a two-dimensional plane, to which the characters' movement is restricted. Characters can navigate this plane horizontally by walking or dashing, and vertically by jumping. Some games, such as ''Tekken'', also allow limited movement in 3D space. The first video game to feature fist fighting was '' Heavyweight Champ'' in 1976, but it was ''Karate Champ'' that popularized ...
