The following is a collection of my reactions to this game that I posted on Facebook in 2013:

Ok everyone needs to know about the game El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron. This is a Japanese game based on The Book of Enoch...where Enoch gets in a tron style motorcycle battle across a future metropolis and ends with a Michael Bay/ Arnold Schwarzenegger style explosion which he walks away from without looking, like a cool guy.

Now Enoch is fighting a transformer

Armaros is a pop star and Enoch is fighting his backup dancers...I love you Japan.

Yeah they have the Nephilim in there, if you've ever seen Princess Mononoke they look like giant Kodamas in the game, they're so cute until they start eating one another.

The fighting is honestly the most tedious part of the game, it's too simple and repetitive for me. I like it for the in between moments of just walking around the world that has a great unique art style in every level, and for the Japanese weirdness of course.
