Ossu!! Karate Bu is a fighting game released for the Super Famicom in 1994, developed and published by Culture Brain.

Players can recover from defeat if sufficient power is available, exchanging it for a slight health boost, and rounds are counted similarly to professional wrestling.
A Super Famicom fighter game based on the delinquent martial arts manga of the same name. It was developed and published by Culture Brain in 1994.
The game is a standard martial arts one-on-one fighter in most respects, though features a few uncommon aspects. The first of which is that the player's health bar does not replenish after each round, and the fight continues as each bar is depleted. The second is that the player can recover from losing all their health if they have enough on their power (or qi) gauge. The game counts to three, like in professional wrestling, and the player has the chance to recover a small amount of health in exchange for their power.
