The first OP was poorly received for sure, the QTEs and whatnot. That definitely had a HUGE impact on OP2's sales. However, I believe the Japanese are probably a little burnt out from Musou games. Koei released DW7:Empires, Hokuto Musou 2, Dynasty Warriors 8, and OP2, all within 2 months of each other. OP2 would've done much better if Koei spaced out their games a little more.
I wouldn't use Amazon JP review scoers to judge a game though, especially if it was an exclusive. The users "reviews" there are just horrible, probably the worst on the web.
