They have made handful of improvements that was sort of lacking in the previous one and while not really present as in, in your face visible, The defense stat *doesn't* seem that present in the game across the characters.

Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
Ontop of this, it didn't include what I'd say like mid-combat sequences or cinematics for some of the more notable moments in the anime?

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
If you're familiar with the Naruto Storm games, it's basically the same idea, stunning visuals but somewhat shallow mechanics and combat.
