![]() Thankfully, it is easy enough to guess an objective based on a storyline fight if you follow the anime or manga. Additionally, the lack of an English translation for the said objectives makes the game more difficult than it should be. Attempting to get an A (especially in horribly mismatched fights) requires saintly levels of patience at times. Each objective is stated before a match starts and includes objectives such as only finishing off an opponent with a special attack, a tag team special attack, finishing off an enemy within a certain time limit, or just surviving a match until a timer reaches zero. In order to unlock every single mission, and thus getting 100 percent in story mode, you must complete a match with an A or better. Matches are ranked from S to D with S being excellent and D being below average. This can only be described as the sucker punch from Hell.Īll matches are ranked on how well you complete each mission’s objective within a fight. ![]() Fortunately or unfortunately (depending on how much like you a serious challenge), completing story mode’s 61 missions and unlocking all 74 characters isn’t always as simple as just beating an opponent. Sixty one individual fights are split up into ten chapters that cover seven major manga story arcs and the last three chapters cover material from the movies. Mindless button mashing won’t always help you in this game. Story mode is also a clever way of introducing the game’s two character tag system (similar to Marvel VS Capcom 2 - obviously with two characters instead of three) and getting players to learn how special attacks work. Like any fighting game series the plot is revealed through multiple character fights. The story begins with Ichigo Kurosaki’s initiation as a Soul Reaper and continues up to the content of the “Turn Back the Pendulum” story arc. While the sixth installment was quite different from Heat the Soul 4 I found it to be just as entertaining.īLEACH: Heat the Soul 6 closely follows Tite Kubo’s manga along with some bonus material from the three movies. When it came time to buy the fifth installment in the series I actually passed it over in favor of BLEACH: Heat the Soul 6. ![]() Thankfully Heat the Soul 4 was much more entertaining than BLEACH GC could ever hope to be. It wouldn’t be until December 2007 that I got a PSP to call my own, and a few months later I bought BLEACH: Heat the Soul 4. At the time I didn’t know Heat the Soul had been around since 2005 and games in the series were released once or sometimes twice a year. Despite importing the game (and the Freeloader disc required to play it) I knew about the BLEACH: Heat the Soul series on the PSP. It was fun to start but got old quickly, even while playing with friends. My first introduction to importing Japanese-only BLEACH fighting games came with BLEACH GC: Tasogare ni Mamieru Shinigami on the GameCube in January 2007. ![]()
