### 5/5 — 中文

*2021-12-12, version 1.1.0*

看不懂啊

### 4/5 — Synchronsprecher….

*2021-09-21*

Eigentlich ist das ein echt cooles game, aber die Synchronsprecher stören mich. Z.B. wenn Hayato seinen Ultimate move macht, ich sehe keine Wut in der Stimme!!!! Son Goku bekommt ja auch immer Wutausbrüche wenn er sich in einen Super Saiyajin verwandelt. Oder der Sprecher der die Namen der Charakteren sagt, der hört sich auch komisch an. Ein Sprecher der sich wie der aus Tekken anhört wäre da VIEL besser geeignet. Er hat eine Tiefe, aber auch sehr angenehme Stimme. Gebt aber noch nicht auf, arbeitet weiter an dem Spiel!!!! 🙂

### 5/5 — 謝謝

*2021-08-22, version 1.0.2a*

謝謝你沒有放棄這款遊戲

### 5/5 — Início

*2021-08-17*

O jogo é muito bom
