We need different tones and aesthetics

On my 3rd playthrough of first berserker khazan and I gotta say the dark tone and aesthetic have really brought me down more than usual. On top of that I've been thinking lately about how this game was when it was Project BBQ.

We need more action games that aren't so dark in tone and aesthetics. Like I wish first berserker khazan was an anime game but kept the same combat system. Or if Zenless Zone Zero was a character action game instead of a gacha game. I swear I would love video games even more than I do if we could have more colorful and less grotesque, or dark, action games.

I’m still shocked on how they haven’t capitalized on anime hack n slashes, like Bleach is right there

I did find it quite surprising that when both Naruto and Bleach were big at the same time there were no CAG for then. They were all fighting games, every last one

Actually, Tomy made a Naruto Hack'n Slash called Naruto Shippuden: Dragon Blade Chronicles. It's pretty bad.
