The original Japanese PCB review recap:

Ketsui is a vertically scrolling serious shoot `em-up by Cave. The genre this game falls into more specifically is one of the `maniac 2D shooters` that have become the latest form of expression of the oldest genre known. The graphics are simply marvelous, certainly the best Cave has yet to offer by a country mile. Everything has an almost believable design; meaty vehicles, explosions, wonderful animation, a subtle yet bright when needed colour palette coupled with, surprisingly for Cave; minimal wait/slowdown.  In this game even the music is excellent.  Controls are to be as expected-flawless. Three buttons are used; A) Lock-on focused power shot. B) Smart bomb. C) Normal rapid automatic shot (spread or straight depending on the selection of the two ships available).
The simple scoring system based on time and distance from smaller enemies is both rewarding and challenging.  Ketsui is easily Caves best game and one of the best modern time best shoot em-ups ever.

10/10/10/10.
