LOL it has it's own tab! How did you not notice that!?

That's the question that came to mind. But hey, at least I saved them for the last chapter.
I wouldn't have gotten any game overs if I didn't forget about requirements and throw a vital pair at the boss as bait.
There are items that increase XP meter? Whut??
It's incredibly easy to miss that there are multiple tabs on the item screen and you can press the X button on the menu to go to another page, even on the intermission screen.
Edit: I only got the game over cause I defended thinking it would prevent enough damage to live, cause I didn't have enough to shrug it off and counter. I just didn't expect Defend to /also/ not be enough.

Oh, if you forgot about the requirements, you could check that out in the menu.
Yes, supposedly there are 3 tabs. I forgot what the third one was. The first tab was for hp items and the second tab was for the XP items. Its funny that I missed it.
Just getting started on this, and enjoying it even though I have no idea who a lot of these characters even are.
I'm still getting a kick out of the writing though. Some good humour in there for sure, especially any comments about how flashy people look in the more mundane environments. =P
Can't wait to get a hold of more people I'm familiar with. Mainly my main man Zero. =D

oh man, didn't check how to do Multi-Attacks until Chapter 20. It's a game changer. Makes the levels shorter too. XD
it's gonna take a while.

The 3rd tab is for getting rid of status effects, thats how I figured out there was 3 in the first place. 
The last one is for status ailments, which I only find myself using if a unit's turn is coming up later or after TURN END/resetting of turns.
Not that huge a selection of items for them. I actually didn't know about the XP refill items until about Chapter 8, and from then on I used them pretty often =P

The only thing I don't like about her assist was the way she comes in. I wish she comes in with her pinwheel move instead of her dive kick.
That definitely would've improved her a bit.
Now this makes me think these two could have had a multiple assault if that had survived from NxC...
honestly you should use items liberally, they're not hard to come by. The mochi balls + green herbs + ether s are what I use the most. Mochi balls are especially useful, since you're usually maxed out on those. I also spam status items too, I've never run out either. screw you poison!
I got a game over once since I used my typical 5 attack combo + two assists + super and it didn't kill the boss, she had like 100 hp, then she countered and killed me barely (200 hp differential). I was so angry, that I redid the whole level and won!

the 3d in the game is almost non-existent. the sprites on the field could be better
I still don't get why GT could've just give it a 7. What the hell is a difference between a 6.9 & 7.0? I don't understand review scores that use decimals.
Any case, yeah, graphics aren't that great, but you can tell they put a lot of work in the sprites and they still look really good. 3D IS there, it's just the type where it doesn't add too much to the point of being distracting. I can still tell the difference between it on & off. It's minimum, but it's a nice small touch.

I'm having a blast with this game due to the fan service and crazy fighting game tropes, but let's be perfectly honest: the game itself is not that great. It's extremely repetitive and offers almost no challenge, and it is on the same platform as the latest Fire Emblem so the comparisons are inevitable. Those low review scores are entirely justifiable.

I never cared for fire emblem
Are you serious? this game has the tactical depth of a sandwich.
don't get me wrong, it's fun as balls, but it's repetitive as all hell, but with positioning not really mattering, low to no unit customisation, and finding yourself doing the exact same thing with every character, it's not exactly a standout in its field
except at being fun as balls, mainly due to the character writing
sprites are gorgeous. 3d effect is pretty good for UI elements.

Considering how easy you can snap Awakening in two on any difficulty setting, I would put the two pretty close in terms of strategy required. PxZ is just much more repetitive about it, whereas Awakening you can press start to skip enemy phase as they all break themselves on your nigh-invincible unit pairing.
Picked this one up for launch this morning, and I've just beaten chapter 3. Feels strange having so few units on the field to begin with after the demos, but your units feel a lot more powerful compared to the enemies which feels even stranger!
Gotta admit, I'm also not that familiar with most of the characters so far (and most of them I recognise from UMvC3) - so I'm looking forward to getting the ToV and VC3 guys (whenever they show up). But so far, I'm having a ball!

Just wait till you get to the demo stage. It is almost completely different.

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
Yeah, also in the actual stage where Demo B is used, you don't have X and Zero yet.

Sounds like a 6.9 to me.

This.
Game and 3DS adquired, and now registered in Club Nintendo stating that PXZ was the deciding factor, to get my bleep on their radar on how much this was desired.
Sadly, I realized too late that 3DSs don't come with a charger, so I'll have to go hunt for one before everything closes for the day.

What? Mine came with one...
I think they don't come with one in Europe.

Because the game is for fanservice only? Compared to previous games this one is pretty easy, less punishing and more easy to play. Easy money for capcom.
Yeah, it's pretty obvious. Does anyone think Capcom would put Megaman in a game? Laughable.

Chapter 13 took me around an hour and a half.
Can't get out of my 'kill em all' mentality.
