I really wanted to love this game but to me it screams all style, no substance.

The visual presentation is a love letter to the series and it's fans. It's got all the voices and music and style like giant text appearing and stuff like that. All the UI is styled after life fibers and it looks super cool.

Unfortunately the gameplay is so whatever that I don't even wanna get into it. It's an anime arena fighter and it's got all that stuff and to be fair I was never a fan of that style to begin with but in this game it feels even more half baked. I get through by button mashing and there is probably more in depth tech but why even bother because button mashing works so well.

The unique thing is this bloody valor mechanic and it's basically rock paper scissors for a buff in battle but more than not I end up losing so I try to ignore it as often as possible.

The creators of this game were obviously fans of the series because it's got so many cool references and tons of care and accuracy put into the presentation but the gameplay just isn't good enough to warrant playing it.
