I feel like 3 stars might be me being too nice here but boy do I hate this game. It's cool in concept but the execution was bad. I find that the CPUs in this game are a little too smart or the player just lacks the options dodging the enemies attacks. I find myself on numerous occasions where I try to do a special move but there's no way to cancel that move and dodge or block if the opponent wants to do a super special move so you inevitably get hit. And it happens immediately, and I mean that in the most serious fashion. I guess what I should be saying is if you really, really like anime then maybe you might want to consider the possibility that you might want to get this game. Otherwise, don't bother; the story doesn't seem very well written (at least for the older people, the younger kids might not find it that way) and all it really is is a fighting game. There's nothing too special and unique about the game that would make you want to play it, much less own it.
