I actually thought there was some VV girls I would really like, they seem great at first glance, but after playing the game they almost all seem to have at least one big flaw for me, except maybe Reika, so far...
VV girls, best to least best (kinda):
Monica (duck face, lol, but for some reason I like her most, and I never even use the casino!)
Nanami (a bit plain but she's literally like a real 18-20 year old gravure model)
Reika (great design, kinda boring but it's cool that she's a lifeguard)
Elise (great design, kinda boring and nothing cool like a lifeguard)
Sayuri (a pokemon named Oneechan... I want to believe she's in her 30s but lies about being 24)
Shandy (hot but always looks high or out-of-it lol, alcohol is not a hot thing for me)
Tamaki (hot but seems like more of a drinker than even Shandy lol)
VV girls mid-tier:
Fiona (design is OK, but she's so boring)
Tsukushi (really, I thought I might like her but she just turned out to be another annoying kid)
Yukino (typical trendy teenage type)
Nagisa (Tsundere: The Movie)
Amy (Tsundere 2: The Sequel)
VV girls bottom-tier:
Patty (Patty! Patty! Patty!)
Luna (sweet potato eating human robot... I do like sweet potatoes tho)
Lobelia (an A-cup Fiona... but it's refreshing to see a less childish flatter chested girl for once)
Shizuku (more social anxiety, kawaiiii... there's like 5 girls with the same issue)
Misaki (left-half of Koharu's hair)
Koharu (right-half of Misaki's hair, also: Japanese Marie Rose)
Kanna (Marie Rose with horns, AKA Horny Marie Rose... Owner-san is going to jigoku isn't he? I mean 10
14? They're hardly trying to hide it.)
Honoka (moeblob airhead that doesn't deserve the biggest rack)
Marie Rose (childish, verging on infantile)
(yeah I know the last two debuted in DOA5UA/LR)
*braces for hate mail*
I got into DOA for fighting game characters who can kick ass and have more interesting designs and backstories than typical moe/kawaii dating-sim or harem anime trope characters, sorry. VV was made for some other kind of fan, not me as a DOA fan. I can't believe I actually miss when my favourite characters would savagely just trash a present I want them to love, none of this "please be pleased with me, ohna-san!" crap. I have to believe that there's little overlap between the DOA fanbase and the VV fanbase.
