Timeslip you should check out TROUBLESHOOTER: Abandoned Children when you get the chance -- if you can get past the anime aesthetics. The premise is similar to Vigilantes with a higher budget, but it has a lot of interesting mechanics.
I've been meaning to try it. I don't mind the visuals of anime, but I find the tone of a number of games which lean into the anime thing fairly unbearable. Is is as bad as Valkyria Chronicles 4?
Nah it's not really that kind of anime. The in-game combat graphics are "realistic" like nuXCOM, the anime is only in the static image cutscenes that tell the story - and it's fairly mild as anime goes (and actually rather nicely drawn).
Gameplay-wise it's excellent, blending the boardgame-like gameplay of nuXCOM with a dynamic action queue inspired by FF Tactics. It also has a deep, fascinating build system that uses what one might call feat-bundles ("masteries") that you get by "learning" them off mobs you defeat.
It's also ridiculous value for money, as it's a long game with lots of systems to play with.
