Lots of hate for this! I think it looks decent (about as good as most games coming out today). Could have some surprises up its sleeve -- might even end up being good!

Being pretty used to the animations in BlazBlue this game looks stiff as shit, and the design isn't appealing either.

EDIT:

Skull girls pushes people's anime buttons? What? If by anime you mean anything animATED then...possibly. The fighting style here, the generic anime outfits, the massive 2d portraits; THAT is a game that screams anime. I think blazblue looks a lot cooler, but I completely sucked at it and gave it like two days...so it just sits on my shelf shaming me. I don't play fighting games anymore, not a ton before, so yes I base a lot off looks. Though MK9 was always tempting I'm not playing online and no one to play it with anyway; loved 2 and 3.

You should give MK9 a shot, for a fighting game it's actually pretty approachable, and it has enough to make it a worthwhile single player experience, story mode, challenge rooms and unlocks are handled spectacularly well.
