Pros
+Similar battle system to Disgaea
+The use of dark portals to do summons and to increase points is unique and could bring potential challenges to players for those that want a challenge
+Event tiles and initiating certain conversations will prompt additional story lines and alternative endings with better rewards
+Great OST and fantastic voice acting

Cons
-No New Game+
-Variety of monsters is less than other games in the same universe (i.e. Disgaea)
-You lose some of the characters that you could use near the end of the game which would have been vital especially if you do end game grinding.
