If TN makes a new male, I'd rather he be older. Maybe his early 20s. No reason why he can Eliot still can't be rivals, seeing as how 18-22 is typical college age.

I don't think Wing Chun is going to happen (sadly). Remember when I mentioned that Ip men will not teach that style to Japanese?

:( yes I do remember this. I am sad. However I think it would be awesome if there was one young male since eliot is getting older. Maybe Eliot has a younger brother that we don't know about lol

I noticed in a recent video that Ein still apparently uses "Ninjutu" in the Dead or Alive stage. So, it's probably gg for a lot of suggestions, maybe even small fixes.

If we do, I'm willing to bet it'll be a guy and not a girl, and even if it was a girl, it'd probably be one of those girls who have fat in all the right places.
All the DOA women are supposed to be "natural beauties" with the perfect unrealistic body. It's going to be a man for sure.
The new female "Honoka" is really a let-down for me. She has moves from the whole roster I guess. Marie Rose's Head. Rachel/Tina's Boob. Kasumi's skin?

From the trailer and videos she seem to have a very strong moveset. Not sure what her throws are like didn't watch her much cause she is just a pure copy of the roster.

Physically she isn't unique, but regarding her moveset, she is stance character, she can go from Bokuho to Dokuritsu-ho to Rig's Bending stance, so yeah we all know the moves, but it might actually be hard to read her during a fight. She's isn't a "pure" copy (not like Mokujin) : sure TN used moves that already existed in terms of animation, but they did a great job in terms of creativity to make them work fluently. It's so cool to have a character with so many stances, yet so easy to learn and remember.

But I agree with you, she's the least natural (boobs and hair look fake). But who cares, it's a fantasy game.

I suppose we should at LEAST give her credit for being a unique take on the copy/mimic style character, if nothing else.

I'm fully on board with the idea of changing character's voices individually.
I love a lot of the english voices (Christie and Rachel to name a couple)
But then I hear my favorite character Leifang's voice in english and go "Weeeelp. looks like i'm never taking japanese off EVER again"
seriously. Leifang's english voice is SUUUUCH a bummer.

I agree, would love and English/Japanese/Multi-lingal version. I don't play with her much but it bothers me that Hitomi doesn't have a German accent... or the Ninja's are all suddenly American when they speak English.

I like the American ninjas though... I don't think I would like them as much with an accented Japanese voice over. Already got a taste of that after switching the language to Japanese and hearing Ayane's - "get ready fight"

Leifang's English voice is just amusing to me at this point. lol

hahaha yea, i'd feel more like that too if she wasn't my favorite character. I just miss the way Leifang's character felt in DOA2... more calm and collective, absorbing her surroundings and kicking ass thusly. now she's just made up as a supa kawaii stalker girl, and a part of me is annoyed by that and the VA just doesn't help.


another thing I'm sure has been mentioned already is the ability to toggle different outfits on and off, like characters and stages. I'm getting so sick of seeing these Christmas outfits appear in my offline play. I wanted to deactivate the catalog but it's bundle with the legacy pack which has my favorite fang outfit. frustrating!
