Then again, perhaps I’m just bitter that neither of my favourite girls (Minori and Hibari) made the cut either (and yes, I’m aware that both are on the huge anime tiddies end of the scale). Senran Kagura Reflexions would have been a more rounded experience if either Ryobi or Mirai had also been allowed to make an appearance. There is a complete lack of justice and absolutely no diversity in the decision to omit representation of flat girls. All of these girls are on the large to humongous side. My only gripe with the small selection of available characters is the lack of variety in the highly important boob department. The base game is packed with series front runner Asuka but Yumi, Murasaki, Ryona, and Yomi are also available as separately purchased DLC packs. There are however, still plenty of reasons to play, especially if you are fan of one of the particular girls available. Honestly though, it’s very disappointing and not worth toying around with given the diorama mode in Peach Beach Splash is so much better.

No, there isn’t any kind of fighting game, or rhythm based eating/cooking contest included. Yes, Senran Kagura Reflexions is built around just the intimacy portions of other recent entries. I fully admit, that after many hours of testing “for science”, I was wrong. I was convinced that this tech demo was little more than a boob shaped game-like object incapable of delivering anything of worth that couldn’t be found with the bonus of also getting a proper game on top. No, I was sceptical because it didn’t feel like there was much of a game present. This is of course a Senran Kagura game, and as such it is a given that there will be bouncy boobs and the ability to “grope” a fictional virtual girl - either when she’s fully clothed or when only in her underwear. My scepticism was not due to the ample “plot”. Back when Shinobi Rifure Senran Kagura released in Japan via the Switch E-shop, I was sceptical.
