Yeah but thinking about it I'm more excited to play as Ein then Kasumi even though Kasumi will probably end up better. I also feel like Ein would suit me a little more based on how I like to play and what I have seen of him in 5U. She's still way up on my list though.
Kasumi supposedly got less safe also. DOA4 tier which was pretty unsafe. Ein on the other hand got a fair bit more safe, he'll be a solid character but compared to chars like Leon or Rachel who gets a BUILT IN PP OH, he might feel a bit lack luster.
He's close to Akira in the damage area though, feels right at home for me.
