It would seem the main gripes with Aerial according to that review is the inability to do a return slash, the forward momentum of the jump(that doesn't happen unless you continue to press forward on the circle pad) and the slow start when it comes to getting white unless you utilize something you'll be using anyway. It's not weak, people just don't like the way it preforms and labels it as such.

As for Striker, it's not really faster at charging artes as far as doing damage goes, but gains charge from being hit as well. So if you are one of those people who is good at evading/doesn't like to get hit much, you likely want being using this Style much(for any weapon).

Personally, if there is a western release of this, I'd probably us Aerial for large monsters or medium monsters when in groups, Guild for medium and Bushido for anything I'm normally good at dodging. As for Striker, I might use it for some weapons, but definitely not for LS.
