Technically, Kasumi has 3 clones but we can assume that all her clones are the same person undergoing a transformation (Kasumi Alpha -> Alpha 152 -> Phase 4), though I don't find how it made any sense for Kasumi Alpha (who physically looks human) to turn herself into a moldy gelatin girl and go back to looking human again.

Phase-4 isn't Alpha 152, she's a completely different clone, a prototype for a new group of clones IIRC.

The final story mode boss made it seemed like Alpha 152 was undergoing a transformation to become Phase 4 though but I guess that doesn't make sense either when Phase 4 attacked Bayman as a finished product.

People seem to be over looking one minor thing.... the hair IS purple yes, but it's the wrong shade to be Ayane.

The hair on this girl is dark purple and maybe even black with purple shading, Ayane's hair is bright violet if it was Ayane the hair would stick out like a sore thumb. (her hair colour does change with the WOU3 DLC yeah, but she was cosplaying a character with blonde hair, and Tengu has white hair so it can't be that either)

Plus, like @Shiranui said this preview is for 5U Arcade it makes zero sense to show off just a costume for 5U Arcade.

Alpha-152 was very like killed from the hands of the fake Kasumi when the two fight; instead the DoA5 shape shifting boss is what Lisa think to be an example of Phase-4. In the end the boss and the laboratory containing apparently all the Phase-4 ready to the battle were destroyed, but the story reveal as Rig and Donovan don't think to what happened as a failure, just the opposite because ended to get the datas that they needed for continuing their project.

Everything make think that the presumed Phase-4 boss and all the clones similar to it, in the end were just an hoax (or at least middle phase of the project and not the final one), seeing as a well working prototype of Phase-4 (sent in battle against Bayman for testing it), appear to be completely different from the shape shifting clone.

By the way your confusion very likely born because Team NInja decided to call everyone Phase-4 XD

In the end the clones are:
  • Kasumi-Alpha
  • Alpha-152 (that is Kasumi Alpha mutated).
  • Fake Kasumi (very likely a clone of Kasumi of the same generation of Kasumi Alpha, only without the knowledge to be a clone)
  • Shape shifting DoA5 boss (a clone very likely defined wrongly from Lisa part of the Phase-4 generation)
  • Kasumi Alpha Phase-4 (the DLC character that actually is a prototype of the real Phase-4, sent on the battlefield just as final test)
  • The real Phase-4 generation, or if called in another way, the final outcome from the prototype of Phase-4 (we still need to see them, could be clones similar to the prototype only without an human side, or maybe something completely different)
All this is crazy! XD (By the way the first four characters were killed and so are now out from the plot).

I always found clones and dark versions of characters unappealling, boring and offensively lazy : Decapre, Pink Gold Peach, Toon Link, Violet... especially when you feel like it could have just been a costume or a skin.

My priority is unique moveset (because unique feeling), and then unique physical appearance/personality (because unique vibe). That's why it's okay with Fox/Wolf in Smash for example, or Phase 4/Kasumi, as they are two different entities defined by two different gameplays and attitude.

Kasumi Alpha in DOAD, for example, isn't good : she's just too close to Kasumi (but I don't mind so much because it was a tribute to DOA2-3 Kasumi).

That's why, if we have Tengayane, I'll be sad not to have Bankotsubo, but at least it would be an Ayane clone with an unique Tengu-do moveset (maybe ?).

The only real "clone characters" in this game are Lisa and Mr. Strong, Alpha, P4 and Kasumi may have the same body but have mostly different movesets and some casses different playstyles. And everyone borrows everyone elses moves for good reason I've noticed Rachel with Ein's low kick hold, Rig with Leon's 4T, Hayate with a few Ein, Kasumi, Hayabusa and DA4 Ayane moves. Momiji with Hayate etc.

So. Many. Clones. -dies-

I really feel bad for Kasumi having to be endure giving birth to so many clones.

I based it on how the "bangs" (if that is real hair and not part of a headdress) look like and I can say it isn't Ayane since the mask-wearer's hair looks longer and the hair color isn't on the right shade. If we were to look at the black-haired girls, I don't think that is also Momiji or Kokoro. All their bangs are segmented differently from the mask-wearer's bangs and their hair are longer than it so it is safe to assume this might be not be a pre-existing character.

Even though it is to be expected judging by the appearance of the lips, I wouldn't say it would be a girl just yet. There is a very slim chance of it being another baby-faced guy like Eliot. The closest character on my mind that is near to the mask-wearer's hair is Ranmaru Mori even though the possibility of a character from Samurai Warriors / Warriors Orochi character to appear in 5UA as a playable character is rather slim and non-existent (despite the WO3 DLCs) and it wouldn't make any sense for a non-DOA character to wear a Tengu's outfit.

If it is a female Tengu then I would be have mixed feelings

On one hand, it isn't the real Tengu from DOA2/4/Dimension (even though I didn't care for him before) But on the other hand, a female Tengu sounds awesome and I can never say no to a new female :)

Maybe this one will be relevant l the next game's story
