Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
109 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
A lot of the moves in this game are either downright cool or whimsical or a combination of both and while there's many of them, along with interesting weapons/guns, you have to unlock them and the currency is not very generous.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
108 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
that's most H&S, but I think it builds up really well and has some amazing continuations and payoffs.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
100 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The animations, character designs, dialogue, cutscenes, are all crafted with love and the comedy works well.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.

Fly Me to the Moon remix is a great track and I found the OST overall pretty good.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
39 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Also, this game's combat truly shines on the hardest difficulty in which they take your training wheels off by preventing you from going into Witch Time with simple dodges.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
35 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I can see this being someone's peak (and it kinda is) because of the Platinum polish, visuals, soundtrack and comedy, but the gameplay is making me groan at times, which is disappointing as I took an immediate liking to this IP and how fun the cutscenes are.
