The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“The irony being a game created to show how corrupt adults can truly be and Atlus creating a gacha game is beyond funny to me”
“Money grab with a lame mc that was handed the mantle of a much better and more successful game. Also the company that runs this deliberately alters the banners to make sure certain regions can't get the "newest unit" with their saved up…”
