If you are suggesting that the charactes will be added soon to 5UA, I don't believe that this will be the case: very likely TN will upgrade before the Arcade from the Ultimate version to the Last Round one, and I'm not sure if this will happen before the release on console (but this time there is a chance).

Well definitely not soon. lol. XD But some time within these next 6 months it would make sense from a business standpoint for them to add characters/stages to the arcade before the console release. It will keep the arcade scene alive especially now that all of the content is available on the console. I guess all of it will depend though on how far in development they are with the characters and stages right now (which is concerning since only Danger Zone was ready at TGS. DX)

I agree and indeed it's this the reason because I think that there is a chance ;) Usually the fighting game get first an arcade release and then a console one for getting feedbacks on the balance: to release the game before in the Arcade would save to TK and TN a patch for console.

Then, more patches - we are already up to nine! I told a friend (who went to Japan for the Phase 4 release) and whaddya know? I found out some interesting stuff. However, this gripe of mine is more generak than specific. I know it is impossible to catch everything and some things will fall through the cracks, but patches, are well, patches. Why so many? Bruise here, band-aid; cut there, band-aid; scrapes everywhere, band-aid! See a trend here! This is why people complain about rushed games because this is the reason we get patches! Devs get a deadline and push, push, push and what do we end up with? A half-ass product. Not saying LR will be this way and luckily Ultimate wasn't. However, if they take their time (if they are allowed) (DOA6, mid 2016), some fans grow impatient - it's no wonder why we get rushed products. Patching to me has become a very bad practice - nowhere near as bad as DLC, but still bad.

And yes, fan/tester feedback is wonderful - I'm just saying whatever happens, I hope things are thoroughly tested! Balance? Yeah, right! (I'm being sarcastic)

So are you saying that we will not see the ability to break the outfits during a match?

As I said, it most likley is like last year TGS collaboration. (The limited timed Kasumi costume DLC)
It should be more on advertising the other game.
And vice versa. So don't expect too much.
Cross promotion is bringing each other companies audience together, so as a whole each company will have more audience in the end. Or at least more people will check out the other company's product for a certain time.

And of course, it won't be a new ability to break the outfit in-game.
If they had this new feature, they don't need a collaboration, it will be part of the selling point of the new DOA game. (I don't think they have time to redo all 300 costumes into breakable ones as well)

So what I think in the end, we will see a costume like Kokoro one that may have more coverage of the costume but ripped left and right to give the effect of being damaged/torn off.

I greatly appreciate translating that interview. Still, it leaves me... upset. Team Ninja has completely discarded "I'm a Fighter" and is back to "I'm a Pervert." And the fact that we're getting yet another girl we've never heard of doesn't make me very happy. Still, I'm glad there's at least one guy coming back we'll (hopefully) like.

I think it would be pretty cool if the new girl was a latina like Catalina

Maybe I am wrong but I feel like Tengu is gonna come back. No offense but other then him I don't think many cared for any of the other males not in DOA5U. Plus him and Nyo teaming up would be pretty awesome.

Although I wish they'd add an original new male this time, I really like Rig and I'd like to see another new male created by TN.

Why do you hate female characters and anything involving them so much? Why are you upset that we are getting another girl when we are also getting another guy?

4Gamer(4): Exploding floors is only in the first DOA. After that it has not appear again. ......
H: Yes, it is a long time ago. It is brought back now.

4Gamer(4): Just tried it, there are floors that are completely blue.
H: Yes, we are also thinking of adding reversal element to it.
Does this not bother anyone else?

Nyotengu's profile says, she came to DOA, to avenge Tengu for being killed. It would make absolutely no sense, to have Tengu now back in the roster again. Yes, even less sense than usual. XD

Huuuh? XDDDD Really? Why did she come to DOA now, just for the lulz? XD

Originally her profile said that the cause for it is officially "boredom" - IMO they were inspired from Ryuk of Death Note - even if very likely there are other true reasons still to be revealed; later Team NINJA decided to specify them including the explicit mention about Nyotengu looking for avenging Bankotsubo; now they reverted to the first version where the character remain with ambiguous purposes...

Not sure if they did it because changed their plans with Nyotengu (they want give her a different relationship with Ryu Hayabusa), or for Bankotsubo (they don't want completely discard the chances to bring back him in the future).
