For what it's worth, I think they have struck just the right balance in Dracu Riot. The sprites are "active" enough to add to the flow of conversation, without going overboard and looking like movement for the sake of it. Sometimes it's just the character's eyes/expression that shifts to reflect small shifts in tone, sometimes the whole pose for bigger ones.

While I'm no fan of overbearing movement, something I think Yuzusoft has been a bit guilty of in the past, I have no qualms with their visual presentation of Dracu Riot - it looks quite nice.

And I hereby place a bet on Miu being your favorite heroine, whenever you get around to reading it
