Like most Neptunia games, Neptunia X Senran Kagura: Ninja Wars‘ story is more an excuse for jokes and character interactions. However, is there enough to warrant a crossover or does it sound better on paper? Neptunia X Senran Kagura: Ninja Wars is both an expected and unexpected entry, giving the franchise a lot to work with. Some got fairly weird, including an adventure where they fight zombies, Neptune turns into a motorcycle, and even one where Noire was the protagonist, but they all offered the same charm. Crossovers and one-off titles have offered new paths for the franchise to explore. Originally it was an arguably preachy game centered on conflicts of the past and a strong affinity towards Sega, with Neptune herself named after a cancelled console, going on to embrace the silly, meta-heavy, humor. Neptunia has evolved a lot over the years.
