The graphics of the game are highly praised, with users noting that they look impressive for an indie title, particularly highlighting the unique artwork for each anime character that can be unlocked through gameplay. The visuals contribute positively to the overall experience, making it one of the standout features of the game.
“The game's graphics are very nice for an indie anime game, and it plays pretty smoothly as well.”
