The game's story is generally praised for its fidelity to the original Bleach anime, with many players appreciating the graphics and character design. However, there are significant complaints about the lack of new content, level caps that hinder progression, and a steep difficulty curve that can make advancing through the story frustrating, especially for free-to-play users. Overall, while the narrative captures the essence of Bleach, the gameplay experience is marred by grinding and pay-to-win elements.
“The storyline is captivating and well thought out, being split between game and anime screenshots.”
“The graphic is amazing, the animation is stunning, and the story mode sticks perfectly to the anime, leaving out only the unnecessary parts.”
“I love the game the storyline is absolutely amazing.”
“Events and storyline that literally got started and never finished?”
“Have been level capped with no new story modes for a year.”
“My biggest complaint would be the story mode; some stages are unnecessarily hard and sometimes it feels like they just want to pad out the story, repeating missions and bosses over and over, some that don't even make sense story-wise, feels cheap.”

The gameplay is generally described as straightforward and engaging, with a fun turn-based mechanic that requires strategy. However, many players find it repetitive and marred by a steep difficulty curve, often exacerbated by pay-to-win elements and a lack of meaningful updates or events. While the graphics and character mechanics receive praise, the overall experience can feel grindy and frustrating, particularly for free-to-play users.
“The mechanics are straightforward enough to understand but complex enough to require strategy.”
“Gameplay is smooth and requires strategy.”
“I absolutely love this game to death, and have been playing it since the American launch. The gameplay is crazy, and the story is amazing.”
“Gameplay can get repetitive with moving across the map, fighting, and moving again.”
“Awful gameplay and recreation of the story, with top-ups everywhere and awful rates for gachas. The difficulty of the story raises super fast, making you feel that you either pay a ton to finally get higher-ranked characters or reroll for a long time to get one for free.”
“The gameplay looks like they put 0.1% of the budget into it, and that's what really turned me off.”

“Great game, I love the gameplay and the voice actors, but sadly not all of the graphics are showing up and instead I see bright pink squares, especially on the after battle scenes and when you summon a character.”
“Poor graphics, a 2D side scroller that feels really 15 years out of date.”

The monetization strategy of the game has been widely criticized as a blatant cash grab, with many players feeling pressured to make in-game purchases to progress. While some users appreciate the absence of ads, they note that the high prices of microtransactions and the lack of meaningful content updates contribute to a frustrating experience. Overall, the game is perceived as heavily reliant on microtransactions, leading to a pay-to-win environment that detracts from its potential enjoyment.
“First off, absolutely no ads!!!”
“So far, no ads and you don't need to spend money to get far. Don't get me wrong, they do encourage in-game purchases for a few packs to get things, and some are interesting but overpriced. However, if you enjoy a game enough, you should help out the developer and spend some money.”
“This game is fun; there are no ads, but its prices are whack and leveling up takes too long. Overall, this game is great.”
“Launched over 2 years ago and no new content, inconsistent events which aren't anything but cash grabs, promises which have never come (like squad boss 2), a level cap which hasn't been raised in over a year, servers which get forgotten, no way to transfer to other servers, stores which don't rotate ever, no current development, failed character use, a shaming of the Bleach license.”
“Over monetization and a lack of content is why this game is dying after 1 year.”
“I've spent money on the game to stay relevant, but at the end of the day it's a blatant cash grab that banks on RNG to keep you addicted.”

Many players feel that advancing without spending money is nearly impossible, leading to frustration with the time investment required for character enhancement and story progression. While some enjoy the grind as part of the gameplay experience, the overall sentiment leans towards it being a major drawback, especially for free-to-play users.
“Just repetitive grinding of the same missions over and over with both end goals other than ranks.”
“Seems like you need to spend constant days grinding to move on unless you pay money.”
“Ultimately extremely repetitive, extremely grindy with little to no reward for your efforts.”

The game's stability is a significant concern among users, with frequent reports of freezing during loading screens, battles, and transitions, leading to crashes and forced restarts. Many players have experienced issues logging in, with prolonged loading times and unresponsive screens, despite attempts at troubleshooting and reinstalling the app. While the gameplay is generally enjoyable, the persistent bugs and glitches detract from the overall experience, prompting calls for urgent updates and fixes.
“Now it will let me log in, but the loading screen freezes, and the game shuts down all the time.”
“Just today I cannot log back in on my main account; it takes way too long (about 20 minutes of load screens), and when it finishes loading, the game freezes. I can't do anything; it's just a screen where I tap something and the game doesn't respond.”
“The connection issues are making this game impossible to play. I keep getting that loading screen, and then when it disappears, the game basically freezes, and you have to close the game just for it to happen again, which makes it impossible to play this game and get anything done.”

The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with some players praising its nostalgic ties to the anime and funky beats, while others criticize the repetitive battle track and lack of variety.

“Extra thanks for the music and voiceovers from the anime, that was a really great touch.”
“The blazing anime soundtrack background music, gorgeous and smooth combos, perfect detailed 3D modeling, cool interface style ... deeply attracted me.”
“About the only thing I don't like is that there's only 1 battle song that plays and it's very repetitive.”
“The battle music is always the same, so it'll get old fast.”
“Wow, this has horrible music; don't ever show me this ad again.”
