Orisa:

Ayane old dev

edit

Ayane's fighting style is very different from the Tenjin Mon style of Kasumi and Hayate,[1] being more flamboyant[2] and based on pirouetting and spinning attacks.[3] Her signature weapons are a pair of twin short swords named Fuma Kodachi (風舞小太刀, Wind Dancer Short Swords). Kasumi's clone Phase 4 uses some of Ayane's fighting style.[4] Team Ninja founder Tomonobu Itagaki described Ayane's character and personality as much "harder" than Kasumi's, making her fit better in the "very hard-edged" universe of the Ninja Gaiden series.[5] His successor Yosuke Hayashi said the image of Ayane covered in her enemies' blood can symbolise the intensity of Ninja Gaiden.[6] Hayashi later requested for Ayane to appear in the Fatal Frame series. Fatal Frame developers "spent a lot of time adjusting things like the wobble of her chest. Team Ninja gave them lots of advice."[7] The game's director Toru Osawa said adding Ayane as a guest character was first suggested by Nintendo.[8]

Marie Rose

edit

The staff of Kakuchopurei criticized her design as "just loli fanservice" and felt there was not much thought put into her design, comparing her to characters such as Tekken's Lucky Chloe or Soulcalibur's Amy in that regard. They further felt she was less of a character and more a "checklist character" to flesh out the roster, highlighting her short temper, short height and low damage in these regards. Even despite these criticisms however, they were hopeful the series would do more with the character for its primary storyline.[9] Ishaan Sahdev of Siliconera described her as having an "interesting sense of style", noting while her original outfit tied into her gothic lolita aspect, he expressed confusion over what her alternate attire was supposed to be, describing it as a mix of swimsuit and maid outfit and furthermore a "crime against fashion".[10]
