It's fun. It's a pretty intuitive puzzle game where you shoot the ball from the bottom of the screen to match 3 of the same color. Matching more bubbles at once results in a higher chain which sends garbage to your opponents screen. If your opponent's screen gets filled up, you get all the bubbles on their screen. The goal of the game is to collect the most bubbles. This game series was known as Bubble Bobble or Bust a Move in the US and has been around since the 1980's.

The rhythm mechanics are implemented really well. After you pop enough bubbles in a chain, it has this rhythm game part where while the bubbles are popping, you press along to the beat. If you press it at the right time, it does more damage(sends more bubbles) to your opponent.

Music's great of course. It has a decent selection from the base game. Maybe like 40 songs I think. Plenty of popular ones. Some of them are dlc though and that dlc is very expensive.

Every character has unique abilities and spell cards that run on a cooldown. They work like bombs as you'd expect to pop a bunch of bubbles on the screen at once or change the bubbles on your screen for easier combos, or throw interference on the opponents screen like changing some of their bubbles into unpoppable ones.

There's a story mode, with usual touhou nonsense. The characters have some dialogue about a tournament. Pretty lighthearted stuff. The difficulty does ramp up fast though. Some of the battles took me dozens of tries since the CPU is really aggressive on harder difficulties. The kind of difficulty you'd expect from a touhou game.
