Overall, the story is seen as a fun, albeit limited, aspect of the game, with a mix of anime tropes and entertaining character interactions.
- “Haven't played the game a whole lot but in all due respect I highly recommend you give this game a try, the ideas and story are nicely implemented and that soundtrack always seems to come back to you plus the game has great music in general.”
- “The story is fun if not a bit anime cliché, and that is what makes it good.”
- “Awesome fighting game, story mode was pretty cool and unique the way it told it.”

The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some players appreciating its unique mechanics and art style, while others criticize it for being clunky, repetitive, and lacking depth. Many users noted issues with controls and a limited range of actions, leading to a feeling of boredom during combat. Overall, while there are interesting elements and potential in the gameplay, it often falls short of expectations, especially considering its price point.
- “Gameplay is decent as an arena fighting game like Jump Force or Saint Seiya, etc.”
- “The gameplay feels unique with a different approach to the 'arena shoujo' games, featuring a unique fighting style.”
- “Takes place in a sci-fi/magical setting with classes like 'bushido mage,' 'holy mage,' and 'magical cyborg,' and mechanics that actually have depth, such as just guard and invulnerable wake-ups. This game feels like what the DBZ Raging Blast games should have been like on PC with controller support.”
- “The reason it is not that good is because it is lacking; gameplay could be a bit better but otherwise content-wise it is lacking. The price for the game as of today is $10.99, which isn't so bad, but this game should be sold for about $5.”
- “Gameplay too limited, mostly easy and boring button mashing.”
- “I was quickly disappointed by the controls, gameplay, and translation issues.”
