I've played it for a day or two already, unlocking all the characters. (Though Lina and Naga from Slayers and the other character, Kukuri must be downloaded from a patch on the main site.)
Since I enjoyed it quite a bit, I was inspired to do a quick review of the playable characters in the game as of the current version. >:3
Spoiler for Usable characters and short descriptions:
Playable Characters- Nanoha: No introduction needed for everybody's favourite 'Friendship thru Firepower!!!' Magical Girl, is there? Anyway, she plays like how she does in the series. A really tough cookie of a beamspammer. Everybody, STAAAARAAAIITOOO!!! BUREEIKAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Fate: Again, who needs to introduce Fate, the arguably most popular character in the entire Nanoha series to the people here? In her case, she's an extremely fast but a little fragile melee-expert much like in the series. The game even includes her Sonic Form for extra kicks.
- Kirara: Take Nanoha's toughness and turn ranged into melee. You'll get Kirara, one of the two sisters from the H-game Magical Girl Kirara and Sarara who uses the MBA-exclusive magic system. She specializes in melee with her combat gauntlets.
- Sarara: The other half of the two sisters from the H-game Magical Girl Kirara and Sarara who uses the MBA-exclusive Magic System. She complements Kirara with her range-combat specialization. She uses a big arrow-shaped device that shoots powerful lasers and can use DRAGOONS Funnels err... Remote attack units like those seen in Gundam series.
- Sakura: Sakura Kinomoto from Cardcaptor Sakura. I expect most of the people here to know her. She's no pushover at all, being one of the more balanced and versatile characters with proper use of her Sakura cards. And for those who liked to argue who would win between Nanoha or Sakura, just play the game!
- Ruru: HER LOLI-DRILL IS THE DRILL THAT WILL PIERCE THE HEAVENS!!!
*cough* Ahem... >.>
Anyway. Second to the last boss. A melee expert who uses... well... drills! Let me warn you though, her melee is simply DEADLY in the game.
- Nowel: WHY DIDN'T THEY USE HAYATE?!?!?!
*COUGH* Ak-hem...! <.<
She's the final boss for the game. And being one, she's one incredibly powerful mage whose spells are of higher-tier compared to anyone else's for the most part. (her Ultimate Spell, 'Dimension Break' is the single most damaging spell in the game if it connects properly) She uses the MBA-exclusive magic system as well, filling the part of the Nuker-spellcaster. However, she can more than hold her own in a fight.
- One more character: I don't feel like revealing this character yet. Just unlock this character when you get the game. And I'm telling you, you most likely won't be expecting the identity of this character! (For those who know, please don't tell! >__<)
Special extra characters in the ver. 1.01 patch.
- Lina: Lina Inverse, a most famous self-proclaimed beautiful, genius sorceress who is also dubbed as "Bandit Killer", "Dragon Spooker", "Enemy of All Who Live", and "Someone even a dragon wouldn't mess with..." She makes her mark in the Magical Battle Arena as one of three special characters. People who watched Slayers should know her only too well. And for those who don't, just play and see why she's considered by many as the original magical girl to adopt the way of 'Friendship thru Superior Firepower!'
- Naga: Lina's rival/partner in several Slayers installments that are set before the tv-series. She has an ego to match the amount of skin she is showing thru that outfit... But she still remains as one formidable character for the game.
- Kukuri: She seems to come from the series called Mahōjin Guru Guru... But as per usual in games, the most harmless-looking characters often end up being one of the more dangerous ones. Kukuri, despite her appearance, has VERY formidable shamanistic powers that deals a frightening amount of damage.
I'm telling you, it's a bucketload of fun!
Using Nanoha or Fate does not disappoint for the most part. And the slew of other characters are all interesting and fun to use as well! (As for me, Lina is a pure joy to use! Dragon Slave trumps even Starlight Breaker! XD)

Anyway. I'd love to post the link to the Torrent of the game. But I don't think Animesuki Forums would allow me to. =/
If it's possible, I think I'd put the link on a Profile Message on my Profile page. Is that legal? I don't want to break any forum rules. ><
Thanks for your time. It's back to schoolwork for me. (as well as praying that they would include Hayate in a future patch)
P.S. Special thanks to aroduc. I referenced two links from his blog. I'm sorry if I wasn't able to ask permission! ><

Kudos for promoting the amazing game!
There isn't many who know it unfortunately but it is such an awesome (and challanging) game. Using fate chan to slash down the enemies is awesome! XD
Nanoha fans here must hurry up and play this :3
Edit: Damn I hate sakura and her haxx teleport >.>
