Even if they’re 16–18, it goes too far with Marija and Rin, with an obvious upskirt shot of Marija in some of the game artwork and with Rin slowly jiggling her boobs on the character select screen. Marija and Buro are both fellow high-schoolers, but Buro is arguably a 12- or 13-year-old girl, which makes the skimpy Joker costume and its excessive amounts of underboob all sorts of wrong – her dialogue lines knowingly play up the possible sexiness of her costumes as well.
The two other characters aren’t safe from some gross oversexualisation either.
#MUSE DASH SWITCH UPDATE SKIN#
While each unique skin grants a unique ability, such as giving you a health or accuracy bonus, I can’t help but feel that you’re not meant to pick a skin based on the ability it gives you. Collect eight black bows and Rin becomes a Bunny Girl, or eight presents and she becomes a Christmas Gift – wearing nothing but a box and bow, bashfully running her hand up and down the length of the ribbon keeping her costume together. Sadly, this is where the game falls flat. Similarly, collecting eight paper planes will unlock Buro, a young girl who becomes invincible when you burst into Fever Mode. Collect eight diaries, for instance, and you’ll unlock Marija, a bassist-come-witch who has a passive power to keep your combo going if you mess up before a combo of 100. These chips are used to unlock extra characters and skins. Each level comes with a set of challenges – get a combo of X, a score of Y, miss exactly Z enemies – that reward you with exp, levelling you up, unlocking more songs to play, and earning ‘chips’ as you complete them. Levels are generally J-pop, Chinese pop or something a little dubstep, so if you like that kind of music, there may be something for you here. You start the game as Rin, a thuggish high-schooler who fights through the level with her bass guitar in hand.
