I have nothing against Ichiban or turn based gameplay, but man did it feel so good to back as Kiryu. Playing as Kiryu feels so goddamn good. You’re like a powerhouse that can obliterate anything in its path. And the combat is SO much better than 6 like goddamn. Gameplay wise, this is what 6 WANTED to be. All of the little callbacks were funny, and bringing back Pocket Circuit was good fun again! The Colosseum is at its best here, even if it’s at its most ridiculous. The “Castle” made me SO happy. The characters are well written and there are lots of highlights with them. Akame 10/10!! And the ending of this game is everything. It was all handled so well. I cried! A lot!
