You know... I'm just gonna answer "yes" every time. Especially when I'm in the mood to make story ideas.Does anyone honestly care about the story?
Why merely resurrect him when we can have an offspring that's twice as ruthless to match the new art style for DOA?Resurrect him. Shit, there's more implausible stuff that's considered canon. Why not?
With my story idea in place, I am confident it would be a better tie-in for Ninja Gaiden 4. This Tengu would still have the traits of his father, but still menacing enough to blend in a Ninja Gaiden game and be relevant to the current DOA timeline. Besides, every NG game has been before the DOA timeline. It's time for a change anyway.
