I played the demo a few days ago, and it reminded me of the Naruto Shippuuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm series of video games (i.e., a combination of combat and quick-time events), which makes sense, considering that Asura's Wrath is being developed by CyberConnect2, the developer who has handled many of the Naruto games.
I think stylistically, it is very exaggerated, in a similar vein to Dragon Ball, Bayonetta, and Godhand, but gameplay-wise, it's probably closer to God of War and more closely to the Naruto games.
I will admit that if I do get this game, I would be getting it purely for the over-the-top style. I mean, one of the battles was being fought on the moon, with Dvorak's New World Symphony playing in the background.
