WOW. this game has so many high points, to the great characters, to the great graphics to the great storyline! This game defines innovation and fun! Story-I don't want to ruin anything. lets just say that its really cool and does a good job of pulling you in. The game is steeped in actual Japanese mythology, and almost all the enemies and bosses in the game are lifted straight from Japanese folk-tales and culture. Take the most basic enemy, (im sorry i can remember the exact name) is a corpse being controlled by a magic talisman over its face! that is easily recognizable if you know a thing or two about J-culture! hey even get a book from the library about this, you will se many connections! 9/10

Game play- WOW WOW WOW! im not going to ruin anything for you guys but, lets just say you use an item called the celestial brush. with a touch of a button, the action on screen is frozen as a painting on a canvas, and the brush comes down from the heavens. draw a line through your enemies, and they will be severed in half! draw a bomb, and a bomb will be erected to be used as you wish! draw a sun, and the sun will appear to lend you it's warm rays! ITS FANTASTIC! 10/10

Graphics- play it. watch. shed a tear. nuff said 10/0

Characters- from Hilarious to just plain cool every single character=pwnage. I can't even explain this, but you will feel a bond with everyone you meet along your journey, and it tales a pretty spectacular game to do that. 9.8/10 GO PLAY THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
