Why It Rocks

 * 1) Fast fluid combos and quick paced gameplay.
 * 2) Fully developed and dynamic characters.
 * 3) Gorgeous anime-esque visuals that show the artists' hard work and dedication.
 * 4) Phenomenal voice cast.
 * 5) Easy to pick up, hard to master.
 * 6) Great soundtrack.
 * 7) Good story and interesting lore.
 * 8) Big Band has a specific button to play the trumpet, and of course, you can play your own songs on it, there is even a lot of guides in the internet to play some songs or to check the notes, | here's one.
 * 9) The game has a lot of references to another videogames, anime and pop culture.
 * 10) The game started getting DLC again in 2021

Bad Qualities

 * 1) The AI of most of the characters is awful, sometimes they'll just stare at you if you don't move.
 * 2) Online is filled with hackers.
 * 3) Some characters like Squigly are hard to master because of the poor amount of damage of their attacks.
 * 4) While the game's mobile port is ok, it tends to have Microtransations and an unnecessary RPG element, making it really harder due to enemies being overpowered from time to time.
 * 5) The PS3 and 360 ports are downgraded compared to the other versions, even the Vita version.
 * 6) As mentioned above, the game started getting DLC again in 2021 to make the game more competitive, the problem with that is that the PS3, Vita and 360 versions won't get those DLC, it's not even compatible with the Vita version despite having cross-save.

Trivia

 * The creator of the game had stated that it was a pet project of his since high school.
