To keep it simple:
This is super smash bros but with shonen jump characters. A flawed master piece in terms of having fights equate to either beating your opponent to death or knocking them out the stage.
The game consists of characters from different franchises like: Dragon Ball Z, One Piece, Naruto, Bleach, Jojo's Bizzare Adventure, Dr Slump, Fist of the North Star, HunterXHunter, and many more. The way the game has you select character is based off of categories and panel sizes.
These categories I will label them as simple to understand instead of using the wording in the game:
- Red/Orange- Fighter
- Blue- Support attack
- Green - Attribute boosters.
Pretty much the game allows you to create your team of fighters (usually duos) by having you construct your own manga panels and positioning them for maximum efficiently. With an aspects of improving said character if you pair fighter type with a Support Attack character and Attribute boosting character from the same manga/anime.
The way the game allows you to construct the manga panels for team creation is amazing, and an aspect I love is the game makes it so the best version of characters have the biggest manga panels, making you have to think about if it's worth in it maximizing on improved versions of characters, or having a balanced set.
The flaw in the game is the story... if you can call it that... is pretty nonexistent. I think thats fine since people wanted a Smash Bros game with Anime characters. In my opinion it does a fantastic job at being that. There is the issue of mission padding where sometimes the decisions during certain missions is downright cruel. There's a particular mission where you have to keep a character alive for 5 minutes straight, if they get hit ONCE it's game over...Very cruel.
Overall I would 100% recommend this game to anyone who wants "ANIME SMASH BROS" really hope one day that Shonen Jump working with Bandai Namco creates a new modern version of this with the most recent versions of the characters, along with keeping the game... good, unlike jump force. One can dream, this game is flawed. But I absolutely recommend JUMP ULTIMATE STARS!
