The gameplay is a neat idea that is weird at first, but feels good and makes sense once you get used to it. I like the structure of the challenges (way more straightforward than in Theatrhythm) and I think the difficulty ramps up at a reasonable pace.

However, I hated the ending so much and it dragged everything down for me. They have Kairi on the front cover, but you can only play as her for 1/3 of the final level, and then she gets her ass kicked embarrassingly in a cutscene, so you can fight Xehanort as Sora. Again. And then the epilogue is to setup that she probably won't be in the next game?! Square truly hates Kairi so much, I don't understand why they can't just let her be a character that does stuff, like Axel, or Leon, or Riku's Meow Wow.
