    No matter how salacious things may get, Reflexions never loses sight of the sweetness at the game’s core – fundamentally, this is a game about a girl attempting to overcome her shyness and tell a boy how she feels about him. While I’ll be happy to get back to battling demons and ninjas when the next full entry in the series is released, I won’t say that this is a waste of the franchise or a disrespectful use of its main character – just the opposite, in fact.

    While this is a unique showcase of HD rumble on the Switch, you will most likely get bored of the gimmick very quickly.

    Reflexions is not great. There’s not much content, there aren’t enough massage mini-games, there aren’t enough dress-up options (at least, not yet), and the voyeuristic tone is creepy. And then there’s the fantasy involving Asuka being your little sister, which almost makes me want to nuke the game from orbit. For the Senran Kagura superfan, it’s probably required reading but everyone else can just wait for Peach Beach Pinball.

    The superficial nature of the visual novel format is strange, considering this series would be perfect for the genre given the size of its character roster and the high stakes confrontations between the different good and evil shinobi schools. What we get instead is a half-assed story connected by a monotonous mini-game. A total bust (not that kind).

    Senran Kagura Reflexions is an Ecchi dating sim game that in reality is a touching and squeezing simulator. The gameplay feels pervy at times, and gets repetitive and boring fairly quickly. There are no visual issues, and motion controls make things more interesting, but it unfortunately isn't enough to make it entertaining.

    I didn’t really enjoy Senran Kagura Reflexions at all and I don’t think I’ll ever be going back to it. Somebody awaken me from my long Asuka-induced hangover when a normal Senran Kagura game comes out on Switch, it sure as hell deserves one on the handheld-hybrid.

    The facial animations are top-notch, cel-shading on point as usual. Most VNs only have static images, but this has full 3D effects. Voice-acting is great and soothing to hear.

    The only disappointment I've had is that not all the characters are available at launch.    … Full Review »

With the amazing HD rumble that literally gives you the Thigh jiggle feel, and the classic Japanese anime Highschool love story style writing. the game really needs the right group of people to play it and review it, or not, because User score is enough to persuade. Just look at NBA2K19's score.… Full Review »

This game isnt for people who dont like tiddies, senran kagura and Visual novel games. This game is a mix max of that and doesn't fit the american general public.

    This is true uncensored asian novel style. And it probably wont fit many prude western people.
    This is what most asian novels are, any one who play's those know to not expect more then what the game is supposed to be.
    The only difference between thing and other asian novels, are the visuals and interactions.

    This game better fits the EU and asian market.
    Really, if this isnt your type of game.. like literally you dont like asian novels and such, just dont bother. It doesnt have what you are searching for.    … Full Review »
