So my thoughts on this game overall:
I like it a lot. It is a lot smoother than MPP it seems, even though it still has its hiccups. Wanwan strikes gold yet again, although a lot of the stage themes from MPP I prefer over the ones here, the music is still great, I especially love Yamatoyo no Momohime's theme. I like her over the final boss of MPP (Mitama was it?). That brings up my next point, I prefer the overall theme of the game here over MPP, mostly because I like the variety of characters here. One of MPP's biggest flaws for me thematically was the same midboss FIVE STAGES IN A ROW. Which doesn't happen here.
