I always check this thread for relevant details on upcoming releases. But every time it's just a mile-long dump of these insipid card things.
Every time I come to this forum, I see these Pictures (looks like collection cards) posted here. Do they mean something, are they in the new Senran game? Or are they just something cool to look at?

It's from a mobile game called Senran Kagura New Wave

Don't worry, soon we'll get a release date for SK PBS as well as an official reveal for SK7 and SK Shinobi Refle :cool:

So we're going to see more of the switch game and a new title! :D Please actually be SK7 though and not the mobile game lol. :p Well I'm excited for this now. Hopefully If it is SK7 they show footage of it or something or maybe a new character etc.

Yep and the stream will be 90 minutes long. So it should be plenty of time to show enough of Senran Kagura Shinobi Refle, Senran Kagura 7, the mobile game, ect

For SK7 like you said, hopefully they show some new characters. Even just gameplay of Leo, Yuyaki, and Souji would be enough

Although considering Arc Angels were seen in the SK7 teaser, I'd be more hype to see them or any of the other New Wave girls 1st

Wonder what the mobile game will be. Would be interesting if it was one of those beat em ups with all the SK girls in it

Yeah hopefully the mobile game is good but 99% the chances are I won't get it so I'm not too bothered. SK7 though I'm hoping for a lot of things. They've hinted at Arc Angels so I feel like it would be right for them to reveal them first. Also I know pbs just came out and used the models from SKEV but I'm hoping they've been working on SK7 for a long time and have better new models for the characters because It's about time for an improvement. ( And obviously I hope the maisen girls get in )

Same, it would actually be cool if Arc Angels and Milky Pop were revealed together, considering they are potential rivals

They'll most likely have better models, there seems to be an improvement every next game. And to think PBS has good models, SK7 should be even more superb

Wonder how SK7 will be like in terms of story. Shinovi Versus involved school rivals, Estival Versus involved a festival, and PBS involved an ancient shinobi game

Maybe SK7 will be a tournament among many clans, it would be a great way to introduce the New Wave girls. Especially considering they come from many diverse backgrounds

I think it would be cool if the story was in chapters of each new team being presented etc but maybe that would take to long storywise? Even if they do the story in the way of past ones they're going to have to introduce the new characters in some way. And for the actual story itself, EV and PBS are both silly so I'd really like for it to actual be semi at least serious in SK7 with the yoma back since the concept art I saw of them was amazing.

Also I'm guessing Leo, Yuyaki and... Souji? I'm pretty sure that's her name lol will be back but I hope they also get new models etc. Also Yuyaki didn't have as dark skin in pbs as she does in the cards so...Hopefully they fix that. I'd love if every single new wave team/character got in but there's so many that I kinda doubt it so If I could pick 3 teams I'd say Arc angels ( cause It's pretty much confirmed already ) Maisen University and...I forgot the name but the rest of Yuyaki's team. Also I wonder if Leo,Yuyaki and Souji's teams will be in purely because those 3 are in?

Yeah hopefully this game could include yoma as well. They looked interesting to fight against in SK2 Deep Crimson

SK7 will be the start of a new saga so it should be different from the original saga and versus saga. Hopefully it'll be a mix of both

Realistically before, the only new teams I expected to see were New Hanzo, New Hebijo, Tengu Squad, and Zodiac Squad (of course Kagura's squad too with Naruku and the Mikagura sisters). But seeing Arc Angels in the teaser makes it likely Milky Pop will be in as well. So they'll probably just go for the remaining 4 while they're at it. Could explain why it took them so long despite existing at the time Gessen and Hebijo were made

If that were to happen that would = 15 teams. The Senki Shu girls would probably start off as bosses too considering the other teams have been made for years while they were more recent. So if that's the case 16

Honestly lol after that strange vague teaser and hyping up the yoma in the previous main game EV, If they don't have them in this it's going to be strange. Also from the looks of things and I'm happy about it, They are finally off of that island and back to the normal world. And wait do you mean Milky pop existed at the same time as Gessen? I'm surprised they haven't been in then. And lol I hope it doesn't end up that Ageha and Matsuri are some of the few girls left out or something, If it's gonna be like that then I'd need every team in. I guess there might be new girls too like completely never seen before girls?

Yeah I definitely see the game going back to it's darker theme. Estival Versus put an emphasis on it's beach-y lightness while SK7 had a lot of shadows and such

Most of the New Wave girls existed during the time Gessen and Hebijo (Miyabi version) were made considering New Wave was in development when Shinovi Versus was in development. Leos team, Yuyaki's team, and Hyoki's team being exceptions. Ayame was added to Shinovi Versus as a store clerk but was originally mostly made for the New Hanzo team

They probably wanted to save the other girls for a more "fitting" game to introduce them considering Deep Crimson and Estival Versus were made to finish off their saga's with the addition of introducing Kagura's team (Kagura and Naruku for Deep Crimson and the Mikagura sisters for Estival Versus)

That's why I think they'll introduce the other teams through a tournament. Leo/Yuyaki should be the new protagonists of the series (Like Asuka/Homura for the original and Yumi/Miyabi for Versus), and maybe Leo will hold a tournament for different clans which could explain the diversity from celebrities like Milky Pop and Arc Angels to elite schools like the Metropolitan girls (Kochou's team) to overseas schools like the Maisen girls (Tsubame's team)

:cool::cool::cool::cool:

It would be interesting to see how new protagonist would be like (I like Yumi, but god knows she's had the spotlight for a very very very very long time now)

I thought Ryona and Ryobi were the MCs for Versus? Cause they hogged the animated cutscenes

Oh yeah that is true. Aside from the beach festival theme, the story mainly focused on Ryona and Ryobi (moreso Ryobi) reuniting with Ryoki and having to settle their remaining issues and such

Fighting normal yoma doesnt really feel that different from fighting normal humans in burst or estival versus since they mainly just swarm your character with numbers. The yoma boss fights could sometimes get a bit annoying since a lot of the times, the big ones tend to just move around a stage trying to run over your character. The more interesting yoma bosses were the generals who were just copies of the hanzo and crimson girls.

I felt all of Gessen and Hebijo were the main characters since almost all of them (with the exception of Murasaki and Imu) had some kind of arc and development. the Hanzo and crimson girls were largely left out in most of the main story (I like how one of the special missions even directly discusses this with Asuka complaining about how she is no longer the main character).

Wonder how it'll be like gameplay wise

It would be interesting if you were able to play as multiple characters at a time similar to Warriors Orochi 3. Estival Versus had this but it would only be for a few missions and they'd be chosen for you.

Maybe even include Team Shinobi ninpo. Most girls get a general team ninpo with others having unique ones like say Asuka/Homura, Katsuragi/Ayame, Mikagura sisters, ect

More unique techniques would be cool too

Oh thanks for the info, never knew that

Hopefully with SK7 they could make the yoma different from the grunts. Especially boss yoma, they looked interesting. But yeah I don't really care for the ball yoma that rolls over you tbh

Those yomas were the WORST :mad:. At least the Orochi fights had some ranged attacks to changes things up but the ball yomas (which are made from the boobs of a giant yoma*) just rolled all over trying to run you down got boring the first time.

*seriously

Yeah I watched the video and it not only looks annoying but repetitive too. Hope they ditch that boss concept

----

On another note I just realized how some of these New Wave girls were probably planned for SK7 even before Shinovi Versus days

Currently Hanzo is
Asuka: 17/2nd year
Ikagura: 18/3rd year
Katsuragi: 18/3rd year
Yagyuu: 16/1st year
Hibari: 16/1st year

Hebijo
Miyabi: 21/3rd year
Imu: 21/3rd year
Murasaki: 17/2nd year
Ryobi: 16/1st year
Ryona: 16/1st year

SK7 will be the start of a new school year meaning

2nd year: Yagyuu, Hibari, Ryobi, Ryona
3rd year: Asuka, Ikagura, Katsuragi, Miyabi, Imu, Murasaki

Ikagura and Katsuragi put a delay to their graduation in Shinovi Versus, while Miyabi and Imu were in a coma which is why they're still trying to finish school

Meanwhile the New Hanzo girls (Fuuma, Hijikata, Ayame, Seimei, Muramusa) and New Hebijo girls (Souji, Chitose, Ibuki, Ashiya, Bashou) will all be 1st year students
