Please don't be discouraged by the previous reviews; in fact, I recommend you ignore all reviews posted in September-October of the past year, since by that time there wasn't nearly enough information to judge the story and it's not unusual for game to have bugs in its early stages.
Pros
The storyline's bloody amazing and full voiced by famous voice actors like Hino Satoshi, Okamoto Nobuhiko, Tsuda Kenjirou, Kobayashi Yuusuke, Ishikawa Kaito, Shirai Yuusuke among many others.
The gacha rate its not bad; (☆5 3%, ☆4 12% ☆3 85%, the usual)
The best part of the game though it's the music. The songs are sung not by the voice actors, but by utaites, professional singers(Akira) and (in Kei's case) actors. All the songs are based on opera (such as Verdi's "La Traviatta" and George Bizet's "Carmen"), plays ( William Shakespeare's "Hamlet", "Macbeth" , "Romio and Juliet" , etc) and novels ( Charles Dickens' "Christmas Carol" Victor Hugo's Hernani, among many others). If like opera and novels, good for you! Have fun finding the all the easter eggs. But if you don't enjoy such things, don't worry! There're not really relevant to the main story.
Cons
Although it's been a while since the game was released there're still a few bugs regarding certain card's skills which can be a little annoying since they affect the total score.
If you don't have an event's pick up card gaining event points gets rather complicated.
And that's all I can think of right now.
I've become addicted to this game to the point it's affected my sleep. But you know, I don't really mind since I get to read a wonderful story ( I wouldn't be surprised if it got animated) and listen to great music. I honestly recommend this game. Please try out and tell me what you think!
