Heavenly Guardian

Heavenly Guardian was originally a PS2 sequel to Taito's Kiki KaiKai series (better known as Pocky & Rocky outside of Japan) called simply Kiki KaiKai 2. The game was canceled, as Starfish lost the Kiki KaiKai license, but would later resurface as a Wii game entitled Kiki Kai World. Kiki Kai World was mostly similar to the canceled PS2 game, but with the main character's miko outfit recolored from red to blue. Instead of being a direct sequel to the original, it was more of a "spiritual successor," as to avoid legal issues with Taito and its parent company, Square-Enix.
