This game is a fun game that will appeal to Bleach fans, but it has some serious flaws that can turn some people off.
The cons D:
1: Every character pretty much plays the same, very generic.
2: Button mashing is included.
3: Too simple gameplay.
4: Some characters are very, very annoying to play against, or with.
5: No real timing is involved with anything.
6: It is possible to spam only one move and win.
7: It takes the longest time to unlock all the characters.
8: Reiatsu burst can nullify a special move, using one bar of reiatsu, in place of three for the attacking.
9: Some moves are unbalanced.
10: Taking on three computers on hard on a team all against you isn't very difficult at all.
11: Bankai is overpowered.
However, there are some nice parts to the game, don't get me wrong.
1: Flash Step function is extremely fun to use, and actually takes quite a bit of timing to master if your versing a buddy.
2: Most of the character moves are consistent with the anime.
3: The specials look very fancy.
4: Hitsugaya is fun to use in bankai, he can fly!
5: There are a lots of stages.
6: Ichigos Bankai is very fun for just flash stepping around.
7: The training mode is cool to experiment with.
8: If you understand japanese the story mode has it's moments.
9: The game is addicting at first.
10: There are a lot of characters to choose from.
11: Kon is awesome.
12: Bankai is very fun to use.
The game it's moments, and it is fun to play with if you imagine yourself in the characters shoes. Flash stepping is very satisfying and can turn a whole match around. Each characters Bankai is at least unique even if the basic play style isn't. Overall, if you're a Bleach fan, you're gonna like this, if not, I don't think it's worth the money. You might like it for a bit, but it will grow old fast.
