Wow...would have never expected this. Going to buy her and all her costumes. These fuckers at Team Ninja always bring me back.

...is that Koshimizu Ami's voice!!!

she voiced Mai in KOF 13 so I imagine it is still her.

Has the number of female characters past the number of male characters yet?

I mean it has to be close if it hasn't.

I'm kind of surprised they haven't just made a fighter that's just the girls yet. It's not like the game really rates competitively.

So, we're just dropping the pretense on Mai's purpose as a character?

KOFXIV is supposed to make her good again - as in, to play as - if it's any consolation.

There are male characters in DoA?

/s

but really...

I think the split is 19 - 15, favoring the females. This would make it 20 - 15

Well, she certainly fits in neatly with the rest of the roster. They must be rolling in that costume money and this is only going to make them more.

Lower render aside, Mai looks like Mai in KOFXIV, Mai in DOA5LR looks like a slightly tweaked Momiji.

To be honest it's the same generic sculpt they use for all the DOA girls character models and then slightly alter. She'll get the same six recycled fetish outfits they put our for $12 every time, too.

EDIT:

Actually I thought it was Momiji in Mai's costume when I first saw her.

Case in point.

That doesn't look like Mai, it looks like a new DoA character with a Mai DLC costume. That's good news I guess though as it means we might get more characters from other fighting games.
