How it feels

A faithful anime-inspired RPG where you relive key story moments, defend strategically, and trade casually through familiar fantasy lands.

What players say

Fans of the anime enjoy reliving season 1, but the game is grindy with repetitive battles and no quest tracker. Players warn of technical issues like save file loss, crashes on Steam Deck, and needing compatibility mode on Windows 11. The game does not include later seasons.
