Verdict
Rengeki and Slash! Hero both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 92% of Slash! Hero's written reviews are positive against 50% of Rengeki's. Rengeki's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price, rating, ratings volume and update cadence there is nothing between them.
