I don't see how she's out of place tbh, DOA has female tengu, ninja girls, an opera singer, loli, oppai loli, a scientist who's also a wrestler, and many other fantasy type anime tropes. I think Nico is pretty tame design wise, her body and hairstyle are pretty tame and her style isn't over the top and even her electricity ability is liberal and only used from her gloves xDHer fighting style looks fun but her design and philosophy... Like in most new entries in fighting games which introduce newcomers, she probably wants to appeal to a certain fetish, ahem, and looks like a more easy to learn character. Idk if it is just me but it triggers and tickles me a bit watching this trend. I would feel like an idiot if companies showed me off like that. If I don't want to learn and practice then I'd probably not play this genre. Also she looks out of place compared to the others, like the rocks in dragonball that are about to be destroyed, or like a guest character from a jrpg. Just like the x3 newcomers. Why not a Vietnamese guy instead? I know many over there who are wishing for this for a long time. /rant over

When I come back to her I may add her actual attack frames if I have time :-D
That's probably why she's she's so annoying xD she's a 9i striker, has an 11i mid and 14i low and she's not lacking in damage, safety, range, or even her pressure with her charges xD I've been focusing on relearning Kasumi but I'm gonna use Nico as well to replace Naotora, she's way more solid xDShe seems to be an extremely safe character.
