For an arcade puzzle game based off an anime, they put WAY too much effort into this. I'm not complaining though, this game is fire.

Again, for an arcade release, this has a really impressive amount of content. Every character has their own routes in both of the single player modes, and you're able to unlock tons of pieces of art of all the characters that any Azumanga fan will get a kick out of. Not to mention the gameplay itself is just solid, it's just Puzzle Bobble/Bust A Move pretty much but it's still really fun. This was actually my first time ever playing one of these games, and it being introduced through one of my favorite pieces of media ever made me have a lot more fun with it. I do think the gameplay can occasionally be a bit luck reliant, which for a puzzle game isn't really my thing, but eh it's not the end of the world.

As an Azumanga fan, I loved this. Getting to play as Osaka in a video game is a very powerful feeling and unlocking all the cool recreations of scenes in the series was so awesome. As a video game fan, I still really liked this. The gameplay is really fun, and the amount of content is insanely admirable.
