Imagine Mega Man Star Force, but with a stamina meter (yay, fun!! /s) and rather than your available attacks being dealt to at random, you just start with all of them you had currently equipped. This means that every single normal battle plays out exactly the same. And since your attacks include board clearers you often are able to KO all enemies within the first second, rendering all non-boss-battles even more pointless.

The boss battles on the other hand.. ah yes, the boss battles! These are INFURIATING due to aforementioned stamina meter, aside from the first boss and maybe one other boss where their attacks come in a steady rhythm and are telegraphed. Imagine being bombarded with attacks every second but not being allowed to dodge them all because your meter-that-lets-you-do-anything is running dry.

World 5 boss is heckin' cute, though! Waifu dibs. Too late, I called it!
