A truly disposable spinoff of the Neptunia series, and it's just an odd one. The main reason to play Neptunia is the fanservice and self aware 4th wall breaking dialogue. Ninja Wars takes its stupid plot seriously, but to an annoying degree.
There is so much god damn dialogue in this game, and the story is so bland. Its a 6-8 hour adventure not counting very generic typical Neptunia side content, half of that is just characters blabbing about the typical "bad guys", and ancient scrolls and ninja honor and shit. Luckily, its skippable, but if you skip the dialogue in this game, you're basically paying for a C-tier 3D brawler that lasts about 4 hours.
Even if you love both series, this game is way too stingy with its 4th wall breaks, instead choosing to put a spotlight on these characters, who are essentially acting out a middle schooler's creative writing ninja epic with some very shoehorned in gaming themed winks to the camera.
The other Neptunia beat em ups are just as bland gameplay wise, but they also have the Sister CPUs and more goofy dialogue. Ninja Wars has very few good qualities in comparison. Cutscenes got a lot of CPU talk and much less Nep talk.
