    A great series of articles have been translated and linked on the front page over at Virtuafighter.com including a great round table discussion in some depth the way that Team Ninja brought the VF characters over to DOA5, the use of AM2's data, and the relationship between the two games. It's a lengthy interview so here's a small section. Check out the source for more.

    Wow, so Dead or Alive 5 has been in the works for over 2 years? I guess it's no surprise. I'm glad everything went nicely for the Virtua Fighter guests :)

    Well... screw DOA fans I guess. That's too bad, seemed like an interesting interview.

    Eh, I imagine most of it is about Fighting Entertainment, and whatever the usual stuff Hayashi responds with in his interviews.

    Thanks for this .. it was a great read ! It was nice to see a more in-depth view of Sega's involvement.

    Also a reassuring one at that regarding the VF cast.

    Great news!

    The interview was translated for VFDC right? It makes sense that priority would go to the VF portion of the interview.

    Definitely, I was just voicing my disappointment. Their decision does make sense, but it would have been more professionnal to translate the whole thing as it was part of the interview. Oh well, guess I'll work out my rusty Japanese and try to read it by myself.

    Hmm. So it sounds like other than giving Sarah her old throw animations as reversals, Sarah and Akira will be pretty much identical. I wonder if they will be able to cancel their K to provoke an attack like if VF. Seems a bit unfair since the rest of the cast in DOA has to commit to an attack.

    I believe that it was mentioned in the first page that the K feint would still be in DOA5. I do not know for sure which interview that was though if not this one.

    You can K-cancel, but keep in mind this is not VF and using a K-cancel won't be nearly as effective. Also, the VF characters don't have the same string delay options as the DOA characters. That alone gives the DOA characters an advantage.

    Also, as of E3, Akira is similar in casual play, but very different at high levels of play (in theory, as I obviously did not have enough time to get to high levels with him). I'm hoping this will change as the game gets more and more complete.

    One integral thing they must add is the low throw.
    Akira and Sarah both don't have one. I think it would be a big disadvantage without it.

    I'm sure they are getting one, just like Sarah is getting counters.

    I'd rather know than be sure.. because it really is an issue ..

    The VF characters are going to have every tool that the DOA characters are going to have (throws and holds). That doesn't need to be said officially and rather dumb to think they wouldn't have one. They have plenty of animations to turn something into a low throw.

    I don't think it's dumb at all. Hayashi said the VF characters are intentionally made to play like their counterparts in VF5 as much as possible and Dr. Dogg mentioned VF characters can't delay their strings which is a universal doa tool, so it's not 100% unlikely that they won't have low throws. Hayashi might just expect VF characters to punish crouching/low holds with a fast mid. Of course, I wouldn't like this in doa because it's bad situation for the attacker, but I can see it happening.

    As for Akira's low throw animation; please, please, don't be his :f+p: from vanilla VF5.

    He already asked about low throws and holds and I gave him the answer. Akira has low throws and holds. All of the VF characters will have low throws and holds.

    Well, that settles that. What is Akira's low throw animation?
