My bad then, but even then two more males and one more female would be 16:18 which why still isn't equal, isn't far off

Sarah's actually around her 40s if you consider her real age.
I count the entire roster regardless of circumstances so I include the VF imports up. While it may be a fact that they are the same person, Hayate and Ein have separate character slots so I consider them as separate entities unlike Lisa/Lamar or Bass/Mr. Strong who are sharing wardrobe under one character slot.

I don't think the VF characters really age though (or at least not from the date of that characters debut game year to now)

Adding male characters only makes sense if this is a fighting game other than DOA. In the past, waaaaay back when paying $40-60 bought you a complete game on the disc, you would get nice and balanced rosters. Now when TN designs a new character they have to factor in how many costume ideas can they reasonably leave off the disc and sell later. Go where the money is, and it's not in dudes or old chicks. If you want a variety of characters try Tekken or SC for 3D, or SF and MK for 2D. That's my 2 cents.
The big draw of DOA are the female characters, whether we want to admit this or not. And this is coming from someone who mains a male character. But that's just the business. It's easier to design costumes for female characters and even sell costume DLC for the female characters. Not to mention, the female characters are more appealing to watch, in both fighting style and beauty. Not saying that TN should neglect male characters completely, but they know where the money is.

DOA started with a very few females to begin with so I don't see them any different other fighting games (Hell, they probably have the most number of females with 3-4 that time while others have like 1-2). Though there may have a recent excess, they are still more neutral with the gender ratio compared to other fighting games.
The question about recognition of the characters on the other hand is a different matter.

I think majority of fighting games are starting to realize this more, which could mean why games like Tekken are now starting to focus on their females alot more
Even Tekken is now starting to implement breast physics, when before, it was forbidden. Face it, a lot of fighting games know that sex sells. The male characters are liked most for their cool factor, but the females are mostly liked for their sex appeal.

But if you think about the schedule can't work because:
March: released Marie Rose on Console / Phase-4 on Arcade
June: released Phase-4 on Console / "X" on Arcade
September: released "X" on Console/ "Y" on Arcade
After six months, we could end to discover the second character but not to see released it (and consequently the complete pack if he will be revealed the last one) on console.
So or Team Ninja plans to relase 2 character but with a lower gap than 3 months from the release on console to the one on arcade, or otherwise when they said six months or more, they really mean a consistent "more" XD
Of course the best option would be to get 3 new characters on console inside 6-8 months.
(And definitely I agree with the fact that we should expect at least an additional stage
)Sorry but indipendently by the opinions of everyone, Tengu is out there the boss more requested and apparently more popular (at least considering the vocal voice of the Western fans). Personally I think that Raidou has a possibility to be included in the game only if Team Ninja will bring back before of him Tengu, and Genra one chance only after the addition of the previous two.
I don't say it because I like Tengu but just because this seem to me an objective fact: during the pre-release of DoA5U I would have said that also if wishing and requesting overall the entry of Irene between the NG girls, this character had no chances to be part of the roster before Momiji and Rachel (listed in order of popularity).

Yeah Tengu should definitely be one of the new characters. Hasn't TN even acknowledged that they know people are asking for him? I'd like a character similar to Lei Fei with all the stances and whatnot. And then Irene seems to be requested, so I'd go with her. Maybe Krav Maga? CQC? Something like that.

I mentioned before that I'd like a more effeminate male in the future. Looking at some of the Jojo Bizarre Adventure characters, I think if DOA got an effeminate male (or an effeminate designed male) then he could look like one of these guys

We can have male characters, but effeminate is not the correct word. The correct word is FABULOUS!
If we are going for the Fabulous route, I want a fabulous male villain like DIO:

Maybe the next character is actually... A PONEY !!!
(Okey, most likely kasumi will get an other retarded outfit like with ragnarok, but featuring a horse motif...)
