The combat really holds this game way higher because everything else around it is nothing to write about.

The characters for the most part are copy and paste characters that you can find in so many games/ anime series. The story is fine but by the end I found myself really not caring as so many things were thrown at you during the final few phases. Speaking on phases phase 10 and 12 are dragged on so long to the point that I almost wanted to quit there was no reason for those phases to have been as long as they were lol. And kasane as a character really did not strike me with her annoying dialogue. And I am personally not a fan of the still picture cutscenes as it took away so much emotions from specific cutscenes that they really became annoying as the story went on.

Past that I really did enjoy the combat and the variety of skills the game gives you to mix and match with its very fun. And while I brought up the characters being basic I still enjoyed the dialogue with them during their bond quests some are very enjoyable.

Overall not a bad game by the stretch but nothing I see myself ever playing again or remembering down the line.
