Wonderful little game.
Going into it I was surprised at how little story it has, instead mostly just focused on bite-sized short stories for your recruitable characters and an undercooked overarching plot with the whole ragnarok thing.
This wasn't an issue for me however, as I'm a huge fan of Tri-Ace's habit of having games with tons of recruitable funny little guys with not much depth to their story yet they always end up being oddly charming right out of the gate. Sure characters aren't developed that much, but I grew pretty attached to a bunch of the characters I recruited and used them over the 'main' story characters. Specifically, I beat the game with Aelia, Suou, and Yumei in my party.
The battle system is probably the most striking aspect of this game and I have to say I fell in love with the battle system and would love to see more games done in this style. It was always so satisfying getting all your allies to combo and air juggle enemies.
