I'm interested to see her wall damage, being able to wallsplat into 4p-kagerou no mai, 6pkk, must do some serious damage.

What do you guys make of her tracking ability? Not saying it'll make her bad or anything if she doesn't have much tracking, but I didn't really see any attacks that looked like they could follow the opponent.

That's because it's part of her Ryuu enbu (214+P) special.
Indeed, but I wonder if her tails are always kept in all her costumes because of her Ryuenbu? or only in Santa's because they fit the costume? I don't see nurse or bunny costume with those tails.. but at same time is weird to see Ryuenbu without tails..

Yeah, that and fan if you can cancel into it.

Also on a side note I kinda hope she has her classic ANDDYYYYYYYY when she get's ko'd, would be pretty funny.

I forsee that coming a mile away just like xiii.

Shame a lot of the VAs from old kof were replaced. I like Kyo and iori but I'm a bit 50/50 with Mai. If the VA can pull off the "Andy" death cry, that'd be great.

Also, can someone translate the note attached to her fireball in the frame data sheet? Does it say it's +1 or does it cause chip damage? Sounds pretty important if it's highlighted in red.

Me too! XD I loved her Maximum Impact 2 scream tho, so long and high pitched.♡ I miss her old Japanese VA from that game, she sounded so cute

I have to say I always hated her "Andyyyyyy" scream. It was added in KOF '97 and I never could stand it. Mai has always been in love with Andy, but at some point in KOF she became a bit too much silly and Andy dependent. I always disliked that.
Also I prefer her actual seiyuu, Ami Koshimizu, than Akoya Sogi. Akoya was good in FF series and I love her because it sounds very familiar of course but in KOF, from '97 on, she was too shouting and overexagerated. Ami Koshimizu sounds more serious and focused but still has a very Mai voice, I think.

It says guard rigidity changes depending on distance. Since it says plus 1 I'm assuming it's plus 1 when done point blank, but gains more advantage the farther away you are, but we can't be sure yet.

I don't think she'll have it, but it'll be funnier if she does.
Mai: ANDDYYYYYYYYYYYYY!
Ryu Hayabusa: Whose that?
Momiji: I have no idea
Ayane: I think she has gone completely insane. I mean look at what she's wearing
*Ryu and Momiji turns to Ayane*
Ayane: Wh-What?

So guys, Maximillian dropped a PM to 866Ain, me and possibly others that he may have tried to reach to learn DOA. I linked him to FSD but I fear he may not even attempt to look at the threads. I am skeptical at the moment because I still remember what he said on stream. We can forgive but I'll most likely will not forget. I can't hold grudges here, so if he wants to learn maybe this time people can help him and change the minds of others for more people to try the game.


Perhaps this time he can actually sit down and learn the game for once.

He's not gonna sign up for FSD right? That may not be a good thing. And I really doubt his motives, I feel as if he's just doing this as some sort of joke: get into the DOA community and make a mockery of us for YouTube views just like he did when Mai was revealed...

I'm also EXTREMELY skeptical of this too.
I will give him the BENEFIT of the doubt of this one because I don't need him to play DOA5LR over and over again, I want him to actually give it a fair shake and learn the game. I want him to treat it like Killer Instinct or Street Fighter V in terms of learning how to play the character.

If it's him by himself, then I can believe he's not fucking around this time. If he has his buddies with him, then I'll pretty much consider it a lost cause. Because that will depend on how seriously he will take it.

EDIT: I'll say this in the comments of that video too, but of Maximillian REALLY wants to learn DOA to play Mai for a day or two, then tell him to play the Tutorial. He doesn't need to stream it(but if he wants us to trust him, then atleast leave it as a video). If he really wants to be serious about it, atleast do that much. He doesn't need to do Command or Combo Challenge with everyone, Tutorial is more than enough easily as a beginner's guide.
