>not a fan of the Jet boss fight in SoR 2.
Jet enemies always have much less health to balance that, and you can relatively easily get them caught inside combos. They only take forever if you use the forward jumping kicks, which are pretty weak with every character to offset the fact that they are hard knockdown moves that hit multiple enemies and 2/3rds of the opponents can't counter it.

>SoR2 has this issue everywhere particularly in Mania,
Mania in SOR2 is a bonus difficulty which is not meant to be balanced or even remotely fair. It's like nightmare mode in Doom (where enemies move 3x faster and respawn). It's there for fun.

>the game and enemies aren't really designed for 1 life play like good arcade titles
Maybe because it is a console title that keeps throwing bonus lives at you constantly? You get one at 20k points, one at every subsequent 50k points, and there are at least 4 1up items in the game from the top of my head. Plus you get 2 continues and can make the game start with 5 lives (9 with cheats).
