What is it about Asura's Wrath?

Been playing Asura's Wrath these past few days and I'm loving it but I can't put my finger on what makes it so good? It's not very challenging, mostly QTEs and really rather short gameplay segments with looong cut scenes in between.

It might be the nice graphics, everything is lol wtf over the top and the story is alright considering.

Should I be watching more anime if I like this game?

What do you think?
