An absolute perfect arena fighter for my favorite anime every character is different to play and fun easy to pick up but hard to master the art style, soundtrack,play style and story are amazing
Very good game on very good anime!
In this game, a low threshold of entry, because it is not very difficult and suitable for beginners. Also here to make a great story, but to understand it you need to know and the plot of the anime. I liked the game very much, but my opinion may differ from yours
I luckily bought this game on sale, so I didn't pay full price. That's probably the best time to get it. There's a decent amount of modes in this game, and Arc System Works managed to replicate Kill La Kill's art style very nicely. And having options for English and Japanese voice overs is always a positive. But it suffers from issues that plague other arena fighters. Too light on content, lack of replayability, and feeling way too similar to its contemporaries.
It's basically stripped-down 3D fighting game that's a retelling of the anime.
The story is okay by anime standards. It's definitely on the weird side as you only see a small slice of the world and that slice is dominated by students fighting over super-powered cloth and clothes in preparation for the coming of the great yarn god. Well, that's basically what I got from it. Without spoiling anything, there is a good explanation for all of this at the end, even though that explanation is a bit cheap and lazy.
So, on to the fighting. It's serviceable. It's in a 3D format where you're unable to control the camera - it just goes where it wants, so sometimes you're on the far side of the arena with your enemy between you and your character, which isn't ideal. You occasionally have to fight multiple enemies at once and there's no real targeting system - it just seems to choose whoever is closest to you.
Also, it seems as though the character animations are 15 or 20fps, which seems a bit strange. this style is normally limited to 2d fighting games, such as Guilty Gear, so that you can better time your moves. But the move set in this game isn't nearly complex enough to need something like that. I would have preferred 60fps animations since the game feels more like a brawler than a serious fighting game.
Character fighting style differences aren't very big. If you learn a move set on one character, chances are, that will translate very well to another character. The animations might look different, but they'll still do the same things (melee attacks, ranged attacked, dash attacks).
So after you get through the 4-6 hours of story mode and have unlocked everything, there's a few more things. There's some time attacks and survival battles, though they're not very interesting. Then there's the digital figures, like in Guilty Gear. This is okay, but you don't get all of the character costumes - you only get their battle costumes. This is fine, I suppose, if you like their string/strap bikini-styled costumes, but I would have much preferred their normal clothes.
And that's about it. If you don't plan to play this multi-player, you're only going to get about 6 hours worth of play out of this. That 6 hours isn't horrible, though it does feel like a partial game.
Ok, i have to be clear here from the begining, i only played the demo, and it was plain garbage, it looks great, and that is it, and that is the reason i've only played the demo, the deception was too much
