Picture unrelated, character action games are licensed games.

Hack n slash = mindless Musou type games
It has always been this way. I remember even back in the 00s, hack and slash meant Dynasty Warriors and it was distinct from DMC-style games (which weren't called "character action" or "j-action" at the time but people knew they weren't just hack n slash)

What a stupid mental gymnastics over a term. This is up there with the PS1/PSX debate. DMC, og GOW, ghost rider, bayonetta, mgr, dante's inferno, ninja gaiden are all HnS and you can't change that. Musou has it's own unique genre, kinda like Metroid/Castlevania. Any musou clone will be called musou and their gameplay are often almost 1:1 of the original.
