What is Goonya Monster?
Goonya Monster is an asymmetrical party game in which three players are “busters” and one is the “monster”. The busters fight using their unique weapons, while the monster fights using powerful skills, with both sides aiming to achieve their own victory conditions. The theme song is by “FAKE TYPE. feat. Super Student”, and the characters are designed by popular illustrator Terada Tera.

New Character Introduction
The characters will be brought to life by experienced voice actors who have worked on numerous productions. You can choose your favorite voice not only during battles, but also on the menu screen and in system messages.
Anemone
CV: Akari Kito
A scientist shrouded in mystery. She is human, but has the ability to manipulate the undead, and is an opponent of the busters.
Normally, she maintains a calm personality, but when it comes to her research, she reveals her insane nature and goes berserk.
She was working on a special research project, but it was halted due to opposition from others…
Slug
CV: Mel Kishida
A young man who fights as the monster. He is also Snail’s older brother (he’s actually got a sister complex).
He has a gentlemanly and mature personality and is somewhat of a mystery.
He is a very important character who holds the key to the story.
He appears in the DLC as a buster.
Orca
CV: Yuzuko Ono
A quiet and calm girl with a strong will and stoic personality.
As the leader of the monster force, she stands in the way of the main character Octo and his friends.
Her eyes light up when she sees something intriguing.
Clione
CV: Yuki Inoue
A gentle, good-natured, and slightly timid boy.
However, he has a dual personality and also maintains a free-spirited, strong-willed, and carefree side (his personality changes with yawning).
He is Pirarucu’s brother-in-law.
