Love Songs♪ Idol ga Classmate (PS2) advertisement taken from the backside of Monthly Comic Dragon Magazine (05/2001). Illustrated by Aoi Kimizuka. Scanned from my personal collection.
[I only shared this in Discord, but I figured: "hey! why not post it elsewhere?"]
Riho Futaba, better known by some as The Daibijin/THE 大美人 [or demolition girl] went to another of her visits around the globe, and despite the vast scaling difference that for some is really concerning...
“I’m glad it’s been getting warmer lately. The club even decided to spruce up the place to resemble a tropical resort.” Riho looks around the club’s bright interior, with fake palm trees and disco lights having hibiscus and sunny patterns. A mini-waterfall runs behind the illuminated stage, where the stage... [read on AO3!]

ok, @posthumanwanderings asked me about my favourite simple 2000 games, and it'd be easier to format this as a text post than as a private message. so here it is:
vol 37: the shooting ~double shienryu~ - released in europe as steel dragon ex, this is the excellent arcade shooting game shienryu, along with a newly-made sequel. the ps1 port has a ton of weird extras, but this port has a whole sequel.
vol 50: the daibijin - released in europe as demolition girl, this is about attacking the supermodel riho futaba, who has become kaiju sized, for some reason. contains the iconic phrase "breast acquisition data". when it came out here, it had some brief infamy as one of the games unfunny hacks would play and exaggerate how bad it was, for the purposes of alleged "comedy"
vol 64: the splatter action - released in europe as splatter master, it's a cute, gory beat em up, in which you control a little pumpkin man with chainsaws
vol. 73: the saiyuutou saruden - possibly released in europe as monkey king, but i'm not sure if it actually happened. i wrote about it here
vol 81: the chikyuu boueigun 2 - released in europe as global defence force, i'm sure you all know what this is. iconic, era-defining, one of the best games on the entire ps2, not just in the simple series. i'm not joking.
vol. 95: the zombie vs kyuukyuusha - released in europe as zombie vs ambulance, it's post-apocalyptic horror crazy taxi with boss fights. you'll probably get bored after a few stages at most, but the novelty of it is compelling for a while at least.
vol. 101: the oneechanpon ~the neechan 2 tokubetsu-hen~ - the early musou-style oneechanbara games are rough to go back to compared to the more modern character action-style games, but if you're going to play any of them, this is probably the most interesting. it's got a bunch of guest characters from other simple 2000 games!
vol. 104: the robot tsukuuruze ~gekitou robot fight!~ i wrote about this one here
vol. 105: the maid fuku to kikanjuu - a beat em up where you play as a heavily-armed maid killing evil dolls and shit
vol. 112: the tousou highway 2 ~road warrior 2050~ - i wrote about this one here
Simple 2000 Series Vol. 91: The All*Star Kakutou Matsuri (the sub-title loosely translated to "The All*Star Fighting Festival") is a comedic 2.5D fighting game developed by Digital Zero and published by D3 for the PlayStation 2 in Japan on December 15, 2005. It was later localized in Europe as All-Star Fighters and released by Essential on March 23, 2007.
Part of the Simple 2000 series of budget games, All-Star Fighters features numerous characters and locales from the rest of the series.
