The game's story revolves around two twin goddesses and an honorary knight, offering a charming narrative filled with humor and engaging quests. While many players appreciate the captivating main storyline and character development, they also note that the questing system can become repetitive and grind-heavy, with a mix of dynamic and mundane tasks.

- “The graphics are good, and the character designs are cute.”
- “The graphics are anime-styled and absolutely gorgeous!”

The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with some players appreciating the class-switching and unique mechanics like the "rage" system, while others criticize it for being overly simplistic, repetitive, and grind-heavy. Many users noted that the automated questing and combat lead to a dull experience, making it feel more like a chore than an engaging game. Overall, while the game has appealing visuals and some interesting mechanics, the gameplay lacks depth and can become tedious over time.
- “This game has really nice mechanics such as class switching.”
- “The costumes the game has are kind of cool, and the class system is nice since you can change whenever you want, making the gameplay more versatile. The 'rage' mechanic is cool; you fight NPCs, fill up your rage bar, and use a unique skill with unique animations for each NPC. I think more MMORPGs should use a mechanic like that; it gives you the feeling that you are powerful and can change the tide of the battle.”
- “Dungeons come in solo and party variety, perfect for some casual or friendly gameplay.”
- “The game mocks you during your gameplay when you do a senshi quest, giving you 1/10 of their fragment as a reward for completing that quest for the first time.”
- “The gameplay does not exist; the game is fully automatic for you. You click, it does it alone, you click the quest is over, you click the character walks to the end of the world while I sleep.”
- “I've barely put any time into it because, to be honest, I was falling asleep at my keyboard even while drinking a fresh cup of coffee because of how absolutely stale the gameplay is.”

The grinding aspect of the game is a mixed bag; while some players enjoy the grind as part of the experience, others find it tedious and overly repetitive, especially with quests and loot mechanics that lack clarity. Many reviews highlight that leveling can be quick through quests, but the endgame grind can feel slow and frustrating, particularly for those seeking better gear. Overall, the game appeals to players who appreciate grinding and dungeon-raiding, but it may deter those looking for a more streamlined experience.
- “You'll need a second life for grinding.”
- “The game is bad because the gameplay can't support it; it's grindy, the quests are repetitive, and the loot isn't worth it as the loot mechanics aren't clearly explained.”
- “The endgame gets quite slow-paced where you will need to be patient enough to spend many days questing and doing dungeon runs to get a single level since grinding is close to impossible.”
- “Like most games of its kind, it manages to make the simplest tasks even more tedious than they would normally be.”

- “It has some of the cutest anime characters, some of the best music I have ever encountered in an anime-styled MMORPG.”

- “I couldn't hear my character customization voice packs over the incredibly loud music (which I'd turned down in pre-launch settings). I literally had to turn the music off completely after getting into the world because it was still deafeningly loud over the sound effects.”
- “The music, sound effects, and what little speech there is... it's all great, though the running sound gets a little annoying after about 15 minutes.”
- “Generic anime RPG story and music fanfare.”

The monetization strategy of the game has been heavily criticized for its reliance on pay-to-win microtransactions and a lack of meaningful gear customization, leading to a focus on cosmetic purchases. Players express concern that these practices will ultimately harm the game's longevity and profitability, as the aggressive monetization approach may drive away the player base.
- “Gear does not change appearance, only cosmetic items, which encourages in-game purchases.”
- “The developers decided to try to squeeze as much money as possible out of it, infesting it with as many pay-to-win microtransactions as possible.”
- “Gear does not change appearance; only cosmetic items are available, which encourages in-game purchases.”
- “It was a decent time waster when I had nothing else to do, but overall the game will literally be dead because now that it's no longer making a profit, Gamigo is going to kill it due to their disgusting monetization practices, which ironically ends up making them lose profit.”
