The Tsubaki Mk II would make a great baseball bat. It's got a circumference about three times that of the Mk I, and is definitely heavier. So the assassination missions wherein you replay the pitch and hit minigame from the Destroy Stadium pre-title fight hall run should be easier with it.
But my timing in the game world when it comes to baseball is as bad as it is in the real one.
I lucked out with the first challenge, hitting the third (and final pitch) square enough and with enough force to knock out all of the targets in one go. The second challenge, however, saw me completely strikeout. At least the 100 kill spree mission gets you a guaranteed £90,000. Any job or mission will fill out the required £400,000 for the next title bout.
One other observation I've to make, is that Santa Destroy is weirdly desolate. I mean, I just started to play Pandora's Tower (watch for the entry, coming out first tomorrow), and the only people you interact with in it are your cursed girlfriend and a travelling merchant/witch. Nonetheless, Pandora's Tower (which, geographically, takes place in as much a wasteland as No More Heroes) still has a more personal feeling to it.
Maybe it's all a matter of numbers.
Two (as of the first 30 minutes of play) drawn out characters will always be more engaging than an apparently infinite population of maybe 7 different character designs moving wordlessly and unceasingly along predetermined tracks. At least No More Heroes' combat is clearer.
