Yep, I've only just unlocked them at the fourth town - which is like 30 hours in if you're playing completionist on all the side quests like me.
It's definitely got a bit of difficulty to it at times, the trick is remembering the attack types of all the monsters (and what they change to) because the game will not do that for you! It's good fun though, I don't think it's overly difficult (although I'm sure for younger children it gets harder) but it's enough to be engaging. Later monsties being straight up better means it's not just sticking with one team throughout either, there is good incentive to bring new monsties up to level and swap them in. I think it works better than Pokemon.
I'm about 35 hours in now (including 7 from the demo) and it's showing no signs of nearing an end yet, so it's definitely a JRPG!
I keep seeing Godzilla playing this on my friend's list as well as Tsunade. Not sure how big a JRPG contingent we have on here but it deserves the attention I think.
