I guess the principle is that instead of the camera doing a dramatic zoom when you do a special attack, you control the camera and can only do those special attacks while doing a dramatic zoom. The game doesn't go in slow-motion to make a punch look more impactful, you set it into slow-motion to actually make your punches more impactful
it's ridiculous
oh and it's also an isekai so it has that level of over-the-top too
(note: we are not into beat-em-ups so it's possible this is actually a really good one for all we know. we just didn't enjoy playing it, despite thinking the concept is really interesting
the concept is also a little too over-the-top for us to enjoy actually playing, even if it is intentionally leaning into the cheesiness of it, but that's just preference and it's still a silly concept that we find amusing)
