2 more reviews, 1 not recommended
I love this game! I'm not usually a fan of turn-based combat in RPGs, but this game does it in a way that manages to keep you engaged the whole time. But I think the best aspect of EBF5 is, by far, the amount of charm and personality everything has, from the art, to the character dialogue.
In spite of enjoying 4 the most, this just ended up feeling like a leap backwards. Takes itself to seriously it's lost it's own purpose. Lost the 2x speed to make it even the slightest bit more tolerable. Horrid capture gimmick that is nothing but a time sync and is more or less required (this or some other timewasting addition anyway) to get the "true" ending. Just cause you have the characters repeatedly say what...

About the game
A turn-based RPG adventure, full of video game references, juvenile dialogue, and anime fanservice... and also strategic combat, monster catching, and tons of treasure hunting! Updated with tons of new content!
