Look, her name is Weiss and her nickname is Ice Queen apparently so I wasn't wrong at all there.

Her name literally ways 'white snow' and she looks like mitsuru from persona but terrible.

But she has Frost in her name that doesn't make any sense!

Anyway i'm hoping they reveal one of the 'etc' characters soon. Just to give a hint of the type of characters they could be.

I guess he's supposed to look Lupin-y but it really doesn't mesh with the SF5 art style.

Idk what's more upsetting the fact that they made an American person pronounce Blazblue the way the Japanese do or that they thought anyone was killing themselves over Guy's master being playable in SFV

I think it's less that anyone was "dying to play Zeku" and more they're taking these minor characters and background details and mining them for stuff to build off of. It's not a bad approach.

Zeku looks nice visually but looks pretty uninspired otherwise. It's too bad he's got the terminal disease of being in SF5

Artelier

Yeah, his style just looks a little boring to me. Despite all my problems with the game, I've consistently liked the animations of the characters in general as they all seem distinct. Zeku's seem a bit lacking in personality. Like he's a fast ninja, sure, but we already have a fast ninja and her animations seem cooler to boot?

Real hurthling!

I'm really glad Capcom made Ibuki lovely and unfun to play so they could add Better Ibuki in later as more DLC.

Maybe we'll get Better Guile and Better Dhalsim in as DLC soon. Remy and Necro are way cooler than those SF2 losers.

I get that this is seething irony, but Remy is possibly the only thing that could get me to even consider playing sfv after they ruined my pal Vega. He's one of my favorite street fighters.

Guile, but as a takes himself too seriously French youth who spends all his time beating the poo poo out of martial artists because he's a self proclaimed pacifist who hates fighting?

I've never seen another fighting game character as beautifully pants-on-head stupid as Remy. I miss that moron and his low kicky sonic booms.

If you think I'm being ironic about the entire SF2 era cast being embarrassingly awful characters both in personality and design let me reassure you that they are all loving trash and 3's cast was a 1000000% straight upgrade to every single archetype.

The only bad parts of 3S's cast are the fact that Ken AND Ryu AND Akuma all made it in and Chun-li hadn't been fired into the sun.

S2 gave us E. Honda, Dee Jay, Fei Long, Blanka AND T. Hawk. The fact that SFIV decided these rich and amazing and not at all lovely designs deserved to be brought back before the vast majority of Alpha's or 3's cast baffles me to this day.

Similar does not equal recycled. Every time this complaint comes up its always wrong. Recycled means its the same animation copy and pasted in frame for frame. He's a ninja he's gonna use ninja moves.

he's basically Iori from KOF but French, which makes him slightly worse by default.
