Er...

When I click on "try the free demo" it makes me pre-order the game.

The America and Canadia versions of the demo are apparently a pre-order bonus, while it's free in the rest of the world. Nvm, they get it free too. The 'pre-order demo' is a separate thing from the 'free demo' apparently.

Eh, it's alright. Feels a lot like Eyes of Heaven with how hard it feels like you snap onto the opponent.

How the hell haven't they announced Inferno Cop yet though? It would be so easy to put him in the game.

Huh, this game was not on my radar at all but this demo is alright.
I might pick up the full game after all.

I genuinely find it infuriating that Naruto Storm came out over 10 years ago and not a single game has been able to replicate its hit detection and tracking system, as well as fluid dodge mechanic. (Nor the amazing combo cancel system from Generations which included step cancels and dodge cancels that had capcom help cc2)

The only game that remotely came close was the last Saint Seiya game. And it was passable at best (and completely unbalanced).

This seems more polished than the other clones but it really doesn't feel good.

Man.

I really like how this game looks.

Like the music change when it gets to the final round of a match.

Just finished the demo. I have to say I'm impressed, I had a blast playing it.

Nowadays, there is nobody better doing 2D fighting games than Arc System Works.

Was going to post this but I feared thread would get stream rolled by haters. Ya know "ugh, another anime gamez" BS. Yes I love anime games damnit, and this plays amazing.

Inferno Cop doesn't exist in the third dimension. That's explicitly the reason given as to why he's not here.

I cannot stand the counter hit message and announcer. I wish I could tune that out.

Bit weird they went with the mid season uniforms for the Elite Four rather than the way better ultimate regalia. Like I get it's for the games story, but it's a shame to lose all those great designs

This was a lot more fun than i was expecting it to be. Will get it, but maybe on sale since my backlog is nuts as it is. They did a great job capturing the spirit of the show

I hope they didn't blow their song licensing budget on the show's OP for the title screen instead of getting the OST for the actual game.

Also, I wish they would dial it back on the subtitles for every single kanji/name that flashes up on the screen before and after every fight. After seeing/hearing them a dozen times over I'd rather the screen not be so cluttered for keikaku reasons.

Nah if you play through the demo chapter, you can hear a bit of the music from the show like Ragyo's theme.

Yeah, I'd prefer we get some show osts in these games too, but we never seem to be that lucky. Also especially wanted it on the AoT games too, with that show's utterly amazing soundtrack.

This.
Enjoying the demo.

Man, I miss watching that anime. It was so good.
Yup, loved this show.

I had forgotten how embarrassing KLK truly is, i'd have given this a chance if it was 2d, but i don't like arena fighters much.

That said, they nailed the aesthetics.

Maybe it's because I don't really play arena fighters that often, but I was actually surprised at how much I enjoyed the demo.

I played this a bunch last night. The game looks really good in motion in the fights. Cutscenes less so. Gameplay is about as mashy as I expected/feared. It's great to have all the original VAs back. I think this I going to end up being a lot of fun for fans of the show like me.

I really enjoyed this and will pick it up sometime later this year because I have too much stuff to play right now. I am shocked that they have the music from the show.



I just finished JoJo: Eye's of Heaven and this is easily a better game. God that game dragged on and on.
