Don't forget in Japan the games where never called "Tenkaichi" It was Sparking, Sparking Neo and Sparking Meteor. It still might have nothing or less to do with Sparking to start with so stop trying to make x equal y when they don't.
Yes it is, but the branding should still reflect the game regardless. They're aware that the Sparking title was renamed to Tenkaichi outside Japan. If they didn't intend the game to resemble its predecessors, then they shouldn't have put Tenkaichi as an option on the English survey, its misleading. People suggested the name thinking they were getting an upgraded typical Spike game in the same vein as the Tenkaichi/Sparking and Raging Blast series, and they aren't.

Also there is real fighting, it's just that very few of the people playing even know what they are doing.
That's funny seeing how the game has constantly been advertised as "more accessible". Using the excuse that people don't know what they are doing contradicts the fact that they made these changes so people unfamiliar with the game could just jump in. There doesn't seem to be anything too complex to the controls, the videos make it pretty clear what your options are during the fights, as the buttons pop up on the screen. That and almost everything is pretty much buried in cinematic QTEs, which means there is less variation between characters. They could have upped the roster by half without any problems since everyone will likely play the exact same with even less variation than they had in the Raging Blast titles (except supers and ultimates).
As for getting rid of 30 character not equating to 1/3 of the roster being gone...how does it not? Last games roster was 100, they remove 30 characters for the reboot, and now we have roughly 1/3 less. It doesn't mater how you try and justify it, the numbers are still prove we have lost a 1/3 of the fighters. I know the info hasn't been confirmed, but it is what we've been told. I know we're getting back to the representatives spread misinformation, but seeing how its all we have to go by, its true until proven false.
