I just sort of let it run in the background. I do however like the format of how the dialogue went in general. I like the whole comic take on things, it adds a lot of variety to the visual experience (like Arcana Famiglia).<br \/>\n<strong>Characters:<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Graphics:<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Sound:<\/strong> &#8220;What&#8217;s this?&#8221; is a really catchy song, although all the music in general suffers from bad Engrish&#8230;<br \/>\n<strong>Gameplay:<\/strong> All four of the right buttons are used, and nothing on the left side which I find to be its fatal difference between itself and UtaPri. I questioned UtaPri&#8217;s limit of 3 buttons on the right side and one on the left, but now I clearly see why they did it&#8230; UtaPri puts more focus on creating the music rather than trying to keep up with a rhythm and coordinating it with mixed up buttons. And&#8230; the latter annoys me. I definitely prefer UtaPri&#8217;s style.<br \/>\n<strong>Replay Value:<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Overall:<\/strong> 6\/10. If the rhythm portion of the game had been as enticing as UtaPri, I would&#8217;ve liked this series a lot more&#8230; But nope. Just another mediocre rhythm game experience partnered with predictable story.<\/p>\n<p>I figure they&#8217;re trying to get their own milking of the singing seiyuu franchise out of this, but I can&#8217;t see it doing any better than UtaPri. Not by a longshot.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;ll be nice to have some actual rock music in there when all of UtaPri&#8217;s music is super poppy thanks to ElementsGarden, though.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bakumatsu.maql.co.jp\/\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title: Bakumatsu Rock \u5e55\u672bRock Platform: PSP Genre: Novel, Rhythm Language: Japanese Company: Marvelous AQL Summary:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[6],"tags":[40,76,25,47,13],"class_list":["post-1914","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-psp","tag-40","tag-marvelous-aql","tag-otome","tag-rhythm","tag-visual-novel"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p16zCk-uS","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/majinken.pmsinfirm.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1914","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/majinken.pmsinfirm.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/majinken.pmsinfirm.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/majinken.pmsinfirm.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/majinken.pmsinfirm.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1914"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/majinken.pmsinfirm.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1914\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1918,"href":"https:\/\/majinken.pmsinfirm.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1914\/revisions\/1918"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/majinken.pmsinfirm.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1914"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/majinken.pmsinfirm.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1914"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/majinken.pmsinfirm.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1914"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
