    It's such a damn shame too, because this game was fresh and REALLY nice. Hell, we ran a tournament recently for this where a lot of people were surprised this even existed and actually liked it!
    The PC version of this game has a nice community mod Restitched which not only rebalances some characters (Mako a much needed change) but also has a few nice QoL stuff too. )
    But timing (and a huge lack of marketing) killed this off, sadly.

    I remember being so excited for this game when it was announced and playing it back when the demo first dropped. It’s sad how nobody really played the game and as someone who got really into this game I can definitely say it was up their with one of the best arena fighters and was actually pretty complex. I literally just bought the game since it was like $4.99 during Christmas but sadly it seems like servers shut down 😔

    I hate it when people who have no experience on game development become bosses of game developers. Basically applies to all types of work. But these people have the most unreasonable demands and when you fail to do something that's nearly impossible to do or falls outside of your expertise you get shouted at like you did something wrong. It's infuriating.

    Thank you for highlighting another HUGE anime, obscure game situation. I really loved the look and the way they translated the art to a 3d style despite personally. EXCEPT that ROCK PAPER SCISSORS system that would determine when you could unleash ultimates which are by far the best things to see in the game but act as basically fight/round enders. Despite its shortcomings and very shallow roster i think this was some thing FANS of the series can say they appreciated. I can.The story is a batshit crazy from the outside looking in, not sure if it peaked any of your interest but i do suggest watching the series(its not toooo long) then revisiting this one.

    I'm the only person who still has this installed on their PS5. Game was amazing. Lack of content is true though. Bloody Valor was great IMO. It's not easy to land and it's not easy to get to Lv3 to get that insta kill. It basically brought in the "Luck" aspect to a game based around skill and knowing your character. It made every match fun for me.
    Trigger were being douchebags, nothing more. Look at DragonBall FighterZ. Arc Sys cooked a masterpiece. I really wanna see the initial game they made for Kill La Kill that was rejected

  • @GurrenPrime
    @GurrenPrime 10 месяцев назад +17

    The small character roster was what really did it in for me (I still got it eventually, but I had waited until there was a big price drop). Ryuko and Satsuki had unlockable alternate versions (that were different from the story mode exclusive versions you mentioned) so that brings it up to 12 with DLC, but every base roster character had at least 1 potential alternate version (possibly more for some of them), plus there were several memorable villains of the week that could’ve made for fun characters as well. It’s disheartening to hear about the production woes, as that’s likely what killed the game’s chances to get those extra characters, as well as more robust game modes. Hopefully something can come along that takes inspiration from the gameplay, but with a better production line.

    @dominicjannazo7144 7 месяцев назад +1

    One important piece of context. I love KLK but was still disappointed when the game was announced, because at that time, ArcSys was also adding a bunch of new crossover characters to Blazblue Cross Tag Battle, a game i was already playing and heavily invested in, and adding KLK to that would have been amazing.
    Instead, their KLK teasing ended up being unrelated.
    But hey, bbtag got Heart Aino, an even cooler addition with how unique she plays.

  • @homurayurisquad1423
    @homurayurisquad1423 9 месяцев назад +5

    anime fighting game communities actually learn to play fighting games, while sites like ign rarely have reviewers who know anything about learning fighting games, so their opions hold no weight. The fact that this game has competitive tournaments shows something
    KLK hardly had any characters, so it's hard to have a bigger roster, and it's generally harder to have big rosters in fighting games, where all characters play different, and they have to try to somewhat balance them. compared to normal arena fighters where you can just slap a different skin on a character.
    This game was pretty awesome back in the day, and I never gave a shit about jump force, dbz games, etc. so this was the only arena fg I bothered with. But I never actually learned how to play this game properly.
    it had some big problems though:
    -only 2 player lobbies, you cannot run a regular rotational lobby like most fighting games these days, and its a bitch to try to run tournaments, and stream them with commentators.
    -had to go thru story mode to unlock versus mode, and characters

    There's another factor i think you forgot to mention that held that game back is that at launch it costed 60$ for such a small scale game therefore it didn't have a lot of players at launch. it also got price drops twice from 60$ to 40$ to 20$

    i love klk so i bought this around when it first came out and i fell in love with the gameplay and how different the characters were. mako is my favorite klk character and the way they made her is amazing, i spent a good amount of time in training mode making combos with her and figuring out how her mood meter worked which goes to show that there really was depth to the gameplay considering the fact that i touched training mode at all for an arena fighter. im kinda sad that this game doesnt even really have a cult following as big as other fgs i normally play (usually atleast 100-500 players) and its just straight up dead (there might still be discord matches but even still only 5 players for that is still low). im glad i atleast got to enjoy this game when i did because i was able to actually find matches on psn then, it was fun while it lasted.

  • @koxame

    I was also a lover of this game but the unbalance is what killed me.
    Short story mode ? Yes but lack of content ? The game has like 4 game modes and that’s enough, more than dbz fighterz and demon slayer.
    There is few characters because the source material (anime) doesnt have that many fighters. WOULD HAVE BEEN better as an action game with some kind of free roam.

      Bullshit, there's more characters from the show they could have used as fighters, like the club presidents, or more alts of existing characters (which is what arena fighters love to do). Considering how wacky and insane the show is, even something dumb like Mako's family could work as a fighter.

  • @neotricksterzero143
    @neotricksterzero143 9 месяцев назад +2

    I'd say that the game did the opposite of saving Anime Games and instead reminded people that most Anime Games are nothing more than cheap cash grabs: why make an arena fighting game with this Anime in particular after it's 15 minutes of fame instead of during it's popularity? An Action RPG or a Hack and Slash would've worked wonders on those crazy fight scenes. Again, that's just MY OPINION.
    If anything I'd say that Dragon Ball FighterZ did it better with saving Anime Games, but that's just MY OPINION.
    Edit: Jump Force and Anime Arena Fighter Fatigue definitely didn't do this game ANY FAVORS.

    • @mordecaiandthekobokerz
      @mordecaiandthekobokerz 3 месяца назад +1

      Yeah the 60 price tag this game costed at release really didn't do this game any favors and to some people it looked like a cash grab and i can't believe that Anime video game content creators were not talking about that price tag, Japanese Companies really need to halt on pricing their niche games like they are triple A games if their games don't have a triple A budgets to them.

But when i tried the demo like 1 year ago, i'm ashamed of myself for ignoring it.

    One of the things I hate about anime games based on shows i love is that they're all either arena fighters or fighting games. Nothing wrong with those genre's, its just I would love to play through the story of the anime, playing the parts from the show. How cool would a Gurren Lagann game be if you actually fought against the anti spiral in the galaxy? Instead they don't make that and just have generic fighters that don't retell the story, or even have one to begin with.
    The only one that did/does it right is the Dragon Ball Z game a while back that had depth and complex gameplay that felt free and retold the main story. When I heard of a One Punch Man game I had my hope shatter when I saw it was just another fighting game.

    The game was pretty much doomed to fail. The in-depth game play only really appealed to one group of people, hardcore arena fighter fans. The casuals can’t grasp the complexity so they write it off. 2d fighting game fans enjoy seeing more complexity, but would rather just play an actual fighting game. Not to mention the game released 6 YEARS after the show came out. At that point the only people still thinking about Klk were the die hard fans of the show.
