This is my first SRW game and I played as the female protagonist.
It was neat to see how they wove together a bunch of very different series into a single universe, which was actually 3 universes but whatever, the point still stands. I loved seeing all the attack animations, especially for the ν Gundam, that was probably my favourite unit.
I liked the OC characters of the protagonist and Nine, they have a fun dynamic. However I do have some problems with the story. The story can be very unfocused with the bouncing between universes, and I was getting sick of the splitting the group up points in the story because it forced to use units I don't care at all about. By the end it felt like enemies were getting shoehorned in to make the game longer.
I feel like I would have gotten more out of this if I watched some of the more relevant series. I've never watched Space Battleship Yamato, the Nadesico movie, Gundam Unicorn, and Full Metal Panic. With the latter two, whenever they were the focus, I would only pay half attention to what was happening because they are things I want to watch.
As the game went on I found a lot of the maps to be annoying. Maps can be needlessly long and have conditions that have you stuck using a unit that you haven't levelled that causes a game over if they die. At least let me know the conditions before the starting the mission so I can at least mitigate the issue. Enemies can have effect that reduce the amount of damage they take or stop it all together and boy do they not make that clear at all. I can't imagine playing this game on higher difficulties, it has to be a fun vampire.
