I never got to play these games as a kid so I started playing the first one on the GBA.

The first scenario in the game involves a hacker disguised as a repairman blowing up people's smart ovens. This game came out in 2001. Idk, just thought it was neat.

I'm enjoying myself so far. Looks like there's a lot of sequels. Am I in for a good time?

it will greatly depend of how much tolerance you have. games are great and combat keeps getting better with each entry. exploration can be rough and sometimes frustrating but scenarios are interesting enough to make it tolerable. story is interesting enough even if it is very anime

postgame is really great if you like challenges but it is an incredible pain to reach there because usually you will have to complete every single thing you can do in game, which range from having to hunt many enemies in random battles and beat them with a good rank, to repeat the complete game again multiple times (4th one is a big pain)

i would totally recommend playing all the games but not sure if i would recommend playing the postgame for all of them. they all have their own charm but postgame tends to be very time consuming
