Manga and anime fans will no doubt get some pleasure out of the game's endless array of cameos, but viewed on its merits as a fighting game this is a clear defeat.
A lot of fan service, with a large roster of very diverse characters; The combat is nothing if not accessible, and there's plenty of content
Extremely shallow action, with hardly any variation between characters – no matter how different they seem to be; Dull story mode, awkward camera, and low tech graphics
