   Amazing game! Its one of the best JRPGS out there, just like trail of the sky etc. which is something i really wanted to play for a long timeAmazing game! Its one of the best JRPGS out there, just like trail of the sky etc. which is something i really wanted to play for a long time since i will never buy a console just to play a few games.
   
   more and more japanese jrpgs will come to the market if people starts to buy them (Since japanese somehow doesnt have interest in the PC platform unless the sales convince them)
   
   also, don't care about the metacritic reviews, they are very biased and probably haven't finish the game yet. who cares if its a console port? who cares if the story is silly, its fun as hell to play this game and can't wait for more ports onto the pc.
   
   for more indepth reviews do check out the ones on steam they are better… Expand

Probably theWhen I first saw this on Steam I thought "oh look generic anime spoof game" with some "uguu" thrown in, but DAMN was I surprised. Probably the best JRPG I've played since the PS2 era ended.
   
   Unremarkable story told very well. I'm usually not a fan of fanservice, but the humour and references to other franchises flow together so well I can't complain.
   
   Music 10/10
   Combat 10/10
   Artwork 10/10 (The graphics are rather simple but the art makes up for it)
   
   Only downfall to some would be the need to grind at certain points (early bosses are unforgiving to say the least), but the left button (unsure of keyboard equivalent) lets you skip all combat animations, making even the grinding fast. The combat itself is quite fast paced (besides special attacks, the animations aren't too long)
   
   Some people had performance issues on release but as far as I know they have been fixed. Runs flawlessly even on my old laptop with integrated graphics (for AMD users just make sure your OpenGL is up to date)… Expand

   I can recommend this game to everyone who loves anime/japanese culture/manga and doesn't care that he has to grind to get something!

   The only negative point that I have about this game is that it was WAYYY too short! :D
   
   I can also recommend that you buy all dlcs as well because they make the game even more fun!… Expand

   This game was a pure impulse buy during a dry spell where I didn't have much else I wanted to play. Coming in to this game without highThis game was a pure impulse buy during a dry spell where I didn't have much else I wanted to play. Coming in to this game without high expectations just expecting something that is serviceable to tie me over. Surprisingly though, the game was quite good.
   
   From a technical level, the game is sub par at best. Visuals and graphics are too simplistic, dungeons are plane and the combat though fun, gets drawn out repetitive on the last stretch of the game.
   
   However, the story was enjoyable and the random humor was right up my ally. To keep it simple, the story is a commentary on the gaming industry and piracy (r4 on the DS) using player characters to identify with each of the main consoles.
   
   If your looking for a light hearted jrpg with good humor and serviceable game play, give this a try.… Expand
