Wow, Divekick at CEO but no DOA? Isn't the Divekick joke over now? Ugh. Oh wait it's Jebailey, I forgot.
Guess there's a scene for Divekick. I know at my college's FGC, they played Divekick for like 2 weeks, but then got bored of it. Lol

I'm also confused over Momiji getting an outfit in that set even though she's never been in DOA before and there were other highly requested throwback outfits.
I'm still annoyed at that like they could've brought back Christie's Trench coat, Ayane's mighty fine ninja outfit from DOA3, one of Kasumi's old outfits, or something for one of the males. But nooooooooooooo we got Momiji.

I think it's for the best we didn't get an extra Kas or Ayane outfit because people don't seem to like that and we'd have an extra argument about favoritism going on in this thread again.

It was obvious that DOA5U wouldn't be at CEO, since only myself and a few others preregistered for CEO Never Sleeps back in November. The CEO Never Sleeps tournament was being used to test the waters to see what games would gain enough interest to be at the main CEO tournament this Summer.

We needed sixteen people to preregister in order for DOA5U to make it in. Just sixteen. We only got around twelve. I doubt CEO will ever even consider DOA again after the repeatedly abysmal results it's shown.

Christie's trench coat has more of a reason to return if Christie didn't got that Veet / Feminine Wash commercial dress. If they chose Momiji then Momiji should have just cosplayed someone else's throwback (like Mila in Tina's DOA1 C1) instead of getting hers from NG3RE. It looks more like she was given another fetish police uniform to match with Christie and Helena's cop suits.

As for the guys, I think Ein should have gotten a legacy instead of a casual DLC. Not that I'm complaining about his jumpsuit being unzipped all the way down or anything. It would be nice if Rig cosplays someone's throwback too.

Team Ninja's favoritism knows no bounds when it comes to Kasumi.
That Japanese fetish for her is just.....

@Jyakotu (i'm referring to your post on page 517)

Well, DOA is hated about it's "huge amount of sex appeal" that feminist can judge as "disrespectful" toward womankind (even if the main hate come from ignorants). I can understand this point of view.
To that i can answer :

-Firstly, it's a fighting game. In this kind of game, there is always a lots of sexualisation of the characters. Men tend to be ripped like hell and aggressive looking (#testosterone) and women more appealing. It's all due to the fighting and the need of visible hormonal excess needed to make it coherent.

-Secondly, as i said earlier, in fighting game, we have most of the time shirtless sexy men fighting. And it's damn stereotyped ! It's also fan-service and it's helping identification for the boys AND give some exiting-service for girls (and for some boys). There is never anybody bitching about guys being bodybuilder, but when it come to woman sex appeal... It's a sensitive topics.
My point is that while a women act slutty in underwear to make you buy perfume, you can feel revolted because it's not justified and unfair. But in a fighting game sexualisation is kind of justified and apply to both gender.

-Thirdly, you can consider that the fan service is the main point in DOA, which make you an ignorant. Of course it's a bit too much sometime, but arguing that DOA can't be taken seriously due to the fan service is either stupidity or ignorance.

All the hate about DOA is unjustified, whatever your argument is. All fighting games does nearly the same things. DOA just always did it more shamelessly.

No. Stop. You lose a turn.
I'm not sure i unerstand your point ^^

Kasumi: poster ninja with about 20 costumes (2U) >>> poster ninja with almost 30 costumes (5U)

So many outfit and yet so few interesting one -_-".
I hope she will get more casual dresses (like C14&11 of 2U) and Ninja themed outfits (NG intro/DOAD) or something really creative like Casual vol 2...
(I guess "The poor stay poor and the rich get richer" XD)

If you're looking for a casual costume, the most probable answers for you are Kasumi's C23 and C26. They look good I guess. They have that very modern appeal. Her C10 overalls is also very casual and it's nice to see Kasumi wear something conservative and something with pants on. I even like her C6 Sunday dress and straw hat even if a lot doesn't like how it looks lol.

I would like it if she gets Kasumi Alpha's default costume, preferably the original DOA2 version with the puff sleeves.

Kasumi has a much more diverse selection in her wardrobe than the rest of the roster. Probably because it's bigger than the rest of the roster.

Kasumi has more outfits than the other girls, but in the end the gap is a bunch of outfits (from 1 to 4-5 from memory).

In the end it's really a question of variety (in addition of course to the personal preferences): I like Leifang but sadly I'm not fond of the majority of her vestiary (even if she got 26 outfits).

Well, Kasumi has 28 costumes currently (Tropical Sexy DLC included).

TN just loves to spoil her a lot like a true valley girl with a boyfriend on the verge of getting bankrupt slaving off to earn cash just to buy her designer clothes and jewelry.
