Best summary I can give: 3D-movement fighting game, very much based around having three heights of attack, and a few ways you can guard moves based on their height, as well as react to your opponent's guard.

It's mostly known for sexualized characters, some of which are visually on the "younger" side, and a very complex, DLC-driven, gacha-based method of unlocking other costumes for its roster. It shares a universe with the Ninja Gaiden games, so a few of those characters like Ryu Hayabusa appear as more than just cameos.

    Is there any major depth to it or are the sexualized characters the main focus with everything just being a side piece to it?

    The sexualized characters are the main focus.

    There's no reason to play it over Tekken or Mortal Kombat if you value a good fighting game.

    I don't know about the volleyball games, but the fighting games are simply "buy outfit DLC" without any complexity or gacha mechanics, aside from the small pool of built-in costumes which come via standard things like "clear arcade with character".
