You and me both.You know, I really wish we'd get a cool black female character with a personality like Aaliyah in Tekken.
You and me both.
Why? Use Christie. How bout a black woman that looks like lupita nyungo?

I actually hate it most of the time. It's always the same noises repeated and it never matches what's happening on screen with the character's actions. Not saying it has to be that way, but often is. Shit kills me in some of those anime looking fighters lolI wish more characters in fighting games talked.

Of course, what everyone else forgot to mention is that Leo does have another swimsuitOr maybe she's supposed to be wearing chest binders.
She's my favourite Tekken characters. But I'm a little bit disappointed that she's not flat chested. She doesn't look androgynous in a bathing suit at all. :<
I dig the design but only beef would be that it encroaches on the same territory as Christie in territory. They really need to convey a different personality for her and maybe change Christie's design a little, lol.
Really hoped to see a British fighter... As long as Steve sounds Australian I won't accept him as being British pfft.
Even betterWhy? Use Christie. How bout a black woman that looks like lupita nyungo?

Christie is Brazilian, though.
\The guy that's gonna be revealed BETTER be a silat fighter!! I want to see this battle in T7:

What movie is this from?
That doesn't stop you from being black.
The Raid 2. So fukking goood
Nor does it stop her from not being black. Particularly in Brasil, lol. Where she most decidedly is not.

TRUTH
Infact, truer words have never been spoken (in this thread at least).
Thank God, Japan, and the 1990s for giving us gaming's most badass girl, the true Queen of Iron Fist!
...I <3 U Nina ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑۶
Jin (the non Mishima version) was in 4 games... T4, T5, T6, TTT2.You would think they'd reintroduce some master at the traditional art of karate, since Jin lasted about one entry.
Whats ... whats your point here.
Are you trying to say she isn't black because of some made up blackness levels?
Sayah said "Chrisie is Brasilian".
You said "That doesn't stop you from being black".
I said "Christie is both Brasilian and not black".
Seems pretty clear to me.
Or are you trying to say that she is black because of some blackness levels you made up?

Why is she not black?
She's not black in a lot of the world, much less Brasil.
I'd say Morena.
Why is she black to you?
What does that mean.
Before you continue, please remember black people come in more shades and hair styles than you would imagine.
Now go.
Sigh.
Study Brasil, a bit, then get back to me.
Or else nevermind.
Or you could explain.
Because what it sounds like you are saying is " she doesn't look like eddie/raven so she isn't black " which is indeed bullshit.

They are both brazilian but that's about it.I always figured Eddie and Christie were of the same race.
Don't know why it's an issue.
XOXO ULTIMATE TECHNIQUE.Press X X X X O O O X for maximum damage.
Yeah that's what I figured too. I am not sure why we have to put labels on fictional characters like that.She's intentionally ambiguously brown anyway so she can be whatever the audience desires since Brasil is an incredibly mixed region.
Really?
You are looking a trifle narrow-minded in your views of race.
Not everything is 'Murikan black and white.
She looks to be what would in Brasil be something other than black. In Brasil she would not be considered black.
More than likely, she has a bit of black in her. Most probably a healthy dose of Native as well; perhaps Tupe. And definitely a sizable amount of some Portuguese and/or Italian and/or Spanish.
Race is not black and white, the world over.
Yeah that's what I figured too. I am not sure why we have to put labels on fictional characters like that.
No, that would go to Michelle. Michelle is the first female character to punch when tackling characters, she has suplexes, and she's cute...*still bitter that Michelle is the only original Tekken female character missing in the main games while Nina is in every game T_T*.
I also can't think of any black men in games that also didn't have dark skin, no ambiguously brown stuff.It almost never seems to be questioned when the male is black. Only Dudley is the only who has been, so it sounds like to me if you have natural hair your blackness is never in question. If your hair is straightened people are quick to take away the African association.
