Diehard GameFan writes: "Arcana Heart is "moe"; essentially, it's a cute fighting game that deals with teenage girls beating each other up. Generally speaking, anime has done this genre to death, but "hardcore fighting game fans" and "people who like Cardcaptor Sakura and Di Gi Charat" are, by and large, mutually exclusive fandoms. This becomes a problem when one is presented with a character like, as an example, Maori Kasuga:
Maori, for those who are curious, is one of the characters in Arcana Heart, and despite her adorable design and huge knockers, is FOURTEEN YEARS OLD. So I hope you won't be surprised when I tell you that resident 2D fighting fan Alex Lucard, upon seeing Arcana Heart, could only respond with "eww", or that another staffer described himself as feeling "like one of those creepy guys you see riding the subway in anime that likes to feel under girls skirts" just for looking at the game."
