Like all the Persona games, Dancing All Night is aesthetically flawless. The music is well-suited to a rhythm game, and the animation of the dancers is incredibly well-done. The controls are excellent, although they do start to fall apart at higher difficulties where complex rhythms really need some kind of visual indicator. I know most people will probably just brute-force memorize where they fall, but that's where the fun runs out for me. Unlockable items can add or remove challenges, and only a handful of the costumes are "anime sexy." The story mode is full of redundant dialogue and regressive social interactions, so I skipped most of it. Overall an excellent rhythm game if you can tune out the "writhing waifu" element.
