I'm really tempted to get this just because of Selvaria and Akira. I do try to buy almost every fighter I can anyway to at least try them though, so I'm sure the temptation will eventually turn into a purchase.

*Edited for readability*
Heavy Object characters came in the new version so I don't think they're in this release yet?
Anyway, buy this game if you're fan of some of the series or enjoy good fighting game. Combos are easy to input and game is really easy to learn in the beginning so even new player like me had tons of fun with this.
Definitely something I want more of.

Yeah this game has some really nice stuff for newcomers. A big thing for folks is that so often when they are new to fighters they try forever to get a hit then finally do and go "aaaaaah...I didn't do anything after it though and that was my only chance!". Newcomers don't know combos or really what to throw out to hit confirm into anything else so they put in a mashable 5 hit light attack so if you were new you had your first combo via mashing and your first hit confirm. Its not enough to win with on its own but it gives every level of player a moment where they did something cool and "got em!" so it makes it very good for all levels of play.

Realistically speaking- what are the odds of this coming to the PS4? I've retired my PS3 and I don't know how viable a fighting game is on the Vita.
This version? I'd wager a lot of money on no chance. They have an updated arcade release that will most likely go to the PS4 if it goes to consoles at all.

Can't wait to punch people out with Touman and his imagine breaker
Edit: wow just roster posted above. Touma, Tatsuya, and Silver Crow are all assist characters? WTF
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_bf51xTZcE I've only seen the anime but is there a reason why Kuroyukihime is using her Brain Burst avatar as a stand?

I believe the reasoning went like this:
DENGEKI: "We want you to put in Kuroyukihime, but her battle form isn't... cute anime girl enough for us. Can you do something about that?"
FRENCH BREAD: "Yeah, I think we got this."

I figured something like that...
You could technically still do that- Touma's assist move lets him use Imagine Breaker to counter the opponent's melee attacks and knock them back.

I would say half the characters are cool. What I don't like is everyone having this same skinny kid body type. Everyone looks like a bare minimum anime character design. You don't see a lot of detail in the bodies.
Merkava is BA enough for me to play the game with someone if they want, though. I really adore his design and moveset aside from the floppy arm moves (wtf?).
It's cool, but know me! I am not somebody else.
I am extremely picky about some aesthetics, and they bother me enough that I can't play the game seriously. Like Tekken's dash cancel seizures.
That's a mistake. This game is not going to have English dubbing at all, Japanese only. Hence why the price is cheap.
Well, I hope so.
That was to be expected from the moment it was announced for the West.
Yeah, I'm guessing it's gonna be all Japanese. I would imagine it would be bothersome to get the people to voice their characters, especially for the story mode (assuming that's voiced as well). Plus they'd have to deal with some characters who don't have a dubbed anime.
Not to mention a decent amount of people who would be interested in this game &/or its characters probably prefer the JPN voices.......plus, ya know, this isn't really new. Namco never dubbed the One Piece games or J-Stars.

That it was gonna be english only? I was surprised about the lack of the japanese audio, hence why "no dual audio"?
It was expected that this wasn't going to have an english dub at all hence no "dual audio".
Yeah but that wasn't what I was implying, that's what I'm trying to say. It's related to the fact that it was listed as english only in the pdf.
Also, this is curious. You found this on Atlus's page?
So I guess things are a bit out of order at Sega to the point where they're having Atlus translate and publish the game. Sega bringing Atlus USA into their publishing fold perhaps?
On that same Atlus site theres a listing for a Disgaea triple pack and it specifies under ingame voices "English, Japanese" so if DBFC had anything other then a full english dub why would it show "English, Japanese" like the triple pack does?

I don't remember the exact reason but they also have stuff from other pubs as well.

That page means just what it says. Atlus is only handling the sales and distribution for these games.
And it makes perfect sense. If Sega of America is releasing something like two physical games this year, they don't need to have their own retail sales staff anymore.

I pre-ordered this on Bestbuy.com a while back, but it looks like there was an issue with the game and it was delayed. Gamestop doesn't seem to have any physical stock either. Hopefully there are no problems with the NA physical release.

My Best Buy preorder is arriving today, so I'm not sure what the issue could be.
It is cross region, but I believe not cross platform.

My Best Buy preorder got delayed also. The new expected ship date is Nov.4 now.....
When did you preorder and what version? I preordered on Aug. 12 the PS3 version. I see that the Vita version is in stock right now. I would get it instead, but Vita TV can't support arcade sticks.

Vita for me - guess that must be it.

Just got an email that Best Buy shipped my PS3 version. Thankfully I don't have to go hunt for this now.

Kino not being a playable character sucks. Not even in the sequel apparently?
Truth be told theyve been making some questionable character choices, I mean I understand some of them but the others are....ehhhhh...
Lol are they even taking fan feedback ^^;

Well Kino isn't really an action or a comedy character, so it's hard to think of Kino doing things other than shooting her gun with deadly precision, which is what she does as an assist.
The Kino assist is really awesome in this game by the way; it's basically the "hold that" button. It is the best anti-Accelerator and anti-Dokuro assist in the game while being a very strong anti-air option as well, so it's very much worth considering using Kino.
How good is your Japanese ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Non existent lol.
What? Please don't tell me they put a cardboard sleeve around this case. If I had known that I would've preordered from somewhere other than Amazon.
Here's my review on the vita version of the game. I enjoyed it for what it was: a simple fighting game that doesn't need a lot of skill.

Fun game, while a bit too simplistic. Here is the closing paragraph of my review of the game.
Looking at it I'm not sure whether the sleeve/case is cardboard or paper but the end result is the same.
At first I wasn't too annoyed until I started taking pictures of it and when turning it over noticed the edges.
Mine was smooshed.
I don't like smooshed items.
Leaving it unopened since I'm at work and I haven't decided what to do.
Cans of paint shipped in large boxes with no packaging arriving crunched, another can of paint also packaged poorly that shut down a FedEx conveyor belt when it spilled everywhere, improper labeling of batteries sent 2nd day air and now a compressed game.
Amazons shipping department is really starting to annoy me.
Sorry if the images are small and hard to see, doing this from my phone.
The damage to the box is somewhat hard to see in picture and looks worse in person.
The outer box is billed as being a collectible and seeing all four edges and various bits of said box crushed is really making me regret purchasing from amazon.

Fuck. I swore I would never order cardboard games from Amazon ever again after the Project Mirai DX debacle. I guess I just have to pray that it comes in OK.
If it's bent though I'll return it and make a buy-in order somewhere else.
