Voltage Fighter Gowcaizer

Voltage Fighter Gowcaizer (超人学園ゴウカイザー Chōjin Gakuen Gōkaizā?, Superhuman Academy Gowcaizer) is a 1995 superhero-themed head-to-head fighting game produced by Technos Japan Corp. for the Neo Geo arcade and home console. It was the company's third attempt at a fighting game after the success of Capcom's 1991 arcade-hit Street Fighter II, following the 1992 Family Computer title Nekketsu Kakutō Densetsu, and the Neo Geo fighting game version of Double Dragon. It features character designs by artist Masami Ōbari, who previously worked on the anime adaptations of the Fatal Fury series. Ports of the game were released for the Neo-Geo CD and PlayStation (Japan only).

A three-episode Original Video Animation series based on the game was directed by the game's character designer Masami Ōbari titled Voltage Fighters: Gowcaizer the Movie. An English adaptation was produced by U.S. Manga Corps. Four drama CDs, an image song collection, and a manga were also released. Similarly, Karin Son is re-used in Angel Blade as one of the minor antagonists.
