Want to preface this with not trying to be mean or rude or anything like that.

I won't say much on the artwork side of things, since I always think that's probably the easiest thing to work on, and placeholder artwork is probably better then nothing at all for this kind of thing.

But first, and I'd say personally foremost, the writing really needs a proofreader. It's fine if English is not a strong suit or anything, but of the parts that make a game, I think writing can really carry a lot of weight. And as it currently stands, the writing is extremely rough. Having someone to go over the script and rework it to make everything read more 'naturally', will certainly give the game a lot more appeal, I'd think.

And the next part I'd comment on, is the gameplay. Which right now, isn't anything too special or amazing, but certainly can use some work. I've only used Kurona thus far, but the current loop of combat isn't bad inherently, but the fact it seems once your MP runs out, you're basically completely defenseless/useless, and there's no way to actually get your MP back in a fight is pretty rough and punishing.

It might be accurate to Bleach in some way, I'm not sure (I admit, I've only had a passing interest, and only really know the early stuff. I do like the characters though).

The, for the lack of a better term, "battlefuck" combat seems really weird as well. It either seems to be an attempt to have interactive sex scenes in RPGMaker, or some kind of 'combat' that doesn't seem to work right? There's also a billion options, which makes me think the intent might be to go for interactive sex scenes of sort. I'd say commit to one or the other, and I'd personally lean to the "battlefuck" angle, but that's just a big personal bias.

The last thing I want to bring up as a complaint is bugginess. As it stands, I don't even know how you save. Again, only played as Kurona, but she seems to completely lack a save option at all.

All this aside though, I do wish you the best with this project though. I don't have any inherent issues with the concept, it's just really going to need some polish to shine. As long as you've got the passion and drive, I'm sure you can work on this and turn it into something memorable.

EDIT:
I also forgot one thing! The folder of guides and stuff, is actually a pretty nice touch.

I love writting guides xD the Game was fully in my head before I started ... Some things changed of course and a lot more will . But guides are good .

Guys I know the combats cluncky in the beggining but it will get A LOT better once you unlock Shikai . This is intentional in the BUREACH universe running out of Reiatsu (MP ) is equall to death , you might just want to start over from the last Save . If you choose thr Loyalist path your pretty weak in the beggining thats also intentional it simulates your barrelly a Liutenant class and you have to play defensivelly or die untill you get your Shikai . I mean you couuuld always get lucky with a Critical (1-10% chance) and deal 3x damage with an attack but thats rare

The combat is very realistic to the bleach universe

If you do not know much about the universe ill summarise the trainings available in game to help you build your character

Shunpo - Speed techniques , Dodging , Self Buffs

Hakuda - Bare hand fighting , Very high physical melee damage but low defense , great against Arrancar and Bakudo users , some Stun utility

Power - you have very High Reiatsu meaning you both Resist damage and deal good damage with all attacks , however you are pretty basic remaining mostly at the level you were before training but recieving much higher passive stats

Hado - an offensive Glass canon mage , great against Physical fighters who have low resistance to Hado , costly MP but highest damage in the Game

Bakudo - a defensive mage that focuses on Stuns and Barriers for defense at first , then breaks into more essoteric stuff like ressurection , using defense to Attack , and Teleportation (aka QUICK TRAVEL). Also very tanky

Kaido - a tanky Healer , not much to say , just OP with a party member the only specialisation that can consistenly heal without items

Any and all faults your build may have can be overcome by buying items from either Urahara or Mayuri !

To clarify - there IS quick travel in the Game but its rare . Bakudo specialists can teleport around the place, later on at 1/2 of the Game you will get your first Teleport item regardless of your specialization use it from your inventory when out of combat . There are also passive portals at Uraharas shop and Mayuris lab , and Hueco Mundo if certain conditions are met you can simply walk in .

Oh, this looks interesting, more Parody games like this are always welcome

RPG Maker Sandbox games can be amazing, but can also be quite easy to get bored if not complete enough, or with certain options locked behind extremelly specific quests.

I will give it a try anyway.

Hahahah hes actually become a Captain (political ties) , so I decided to parody him even more xD ... Since hes an impovrished noble he has started a voyeur bussiness where he sells sex pics of others for money xD ... You can help him , AND GET PAID nice early game money . Of course you will see some intresting stuff while stalking the other Captains houses.

Find Captain Tetsuzaemon in the Squad 8 Barracks , you can buy the Sunglasses in the Sunglasses shop right next to him in the same Barracks , give them to him and he will let you join the Shinigami Mens Association , regardless if your actually a man .
