So did anyone notice any of those "subtle changes" they - according to Team Ninja's Twitter - implemented after evaluating the alpha demo feedback yet?

As a Leifang fan, is it wrong for me to hope for some /real/ development?
She doesn't have to be a main character to get something interesting/fitting for her character to do.
So yeah, I don't get why you're pressing me on this. I just don't care for characters I like getting bullshit stories, it's just an opinion.
Zack's obviously doing some kind of taunt but what's going on with Lei Fang in this scene? It looks really weird with Zack not responding at all.

That's an extended parry animation.
ie, she got guard broken into a possible stance transition from zack and anticipated an attack. The only attacks available to my knowledge are his mid punch, mid kick, or throw from that stance. She threw out her parry because it would cover both strike options ideally and she was banking on those being more likely than a throw. Zack decided to be an asshole instead, cancel out of stance, and taunt.
In short, DOA.
Zack did a high level evasion taunt. I explained the taunt earlier.
As Rikuto said, Lei Fang player could have tried doing her advanced parry but not in time for the attack that was guarded, so it got buffered to the moment she could parry - the guard break animation where both feet were on the ground. She then tried to do some sort of
notation but it missed Zack's taunt.

That's a weird lookin' parry animation; it looks as if it triggered Zack's taunt. It almost looks as if she did hit successfully and that's the resulting animation. That's why I'm so confused.
I also didn't realize that I embedded an 11MB gif until I tried to open this thread on my phone... I'm editing it out.

It's Lei Fang's
which has been pretty useless because it's short range, leaves he backturned and they've never given her special back turn options (aside from being able to parry from BT, whoopee), and it does nothing special on hit.. I think the stagger it can cause pushes the opponent away so there's no way to follow up effectively. It would work as a nice keepaway if it was less interruptable and a special mid (hops over lows), but its a high and often misses.
In short I hope they give her a lot more reasons to use this move!

I completely agree, I've never understood why she's had this kick. Even when I do land this hit, it does nothing for me and most of all when I do this kick it's usually on accident, unless I'm just messing around, otherwise I see no reason for this kick. I'd be happier if she just did a cartwheel kick fromIt's Lei Fang's

like Gen Fu, Eliot etc...But I'd be willing to keep this kick if it does something special for her. Since Zack dodged it, we won't know for sure what properties it might have now or if it's just as useless as it was before and if she has a legit backturned game now.
