Tsak Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 hah! if only they had a VA to match the old Zato that would truly be amazing, cuz his voice was off the chain! anyone thinking about what type of character the new one will be? another grappler? can't have too many of those lol
NitroNoodlez Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Wonder how they're going to explain that Zato-1 is still alive. Either way little Eddie isn't so little anymore.
BlackYakuzu94 Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 The lack of a Baiken is irking me, but Zato's pretty cool.
Bloodcrave Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 neogaf is saying that mystery character is most probably valentine
swordsman09 Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 I say the mystery character is either Bridget or his brother.
Mumm-Ra Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 It's robo-ky, see the chair? mechanic looking stuff everywhere?
LionHeartx Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 I just cant see Robo-Ky being revealed this early. I'd put my money on a new character honestly.
Mumm-Ra Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) I just cant see Robo-Ky being revealed this early. Can I ask why? After all, Robo-Ky is a #R original, and this game is based on it. Edited November 21, 2013 by Mumm-Ra
kosmos badgirl Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Finally a new character, the silhouette looks crazy, is he/she sitting in a chair or maybe is a four legged character?.
Luminos564 Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Dare I dream that the Mystery Character X is Zappa? I mean, the silhouette looks pretty damn weird and well, Zappa's all about the WFT quotient.
Lynx Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) Every time I see that silhouette, I get a " more than meets the eye" vibe. I said this before but would love this game even more if they have "Secret Characters". Edited November 21, 2013 by Lynx
Zazz Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Dare I dream that the Mystery Character X is Zappa? I mean, the silhouette looks pretty damn weird and well, Zappa's all about the WFT quotient. Hrmm. A possessed character stuck to a bed? I wouldn't be surprised if Daisuke pulled out a classic reference to something like The Exorcist like that.
LaziestNameEver Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 I'm not sure about it being Robo-Ky, but I can see where Mumm-Ra is going with it being someone in a chair of some sort. No way the WHOLE thing is the actual character.
geoomega Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 i keep my word it's leopaldon but in a mecha robot, instead the big frog moster thing.
Kitsoru Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 I think Robo-Ky, Valentine, Zappa, or a new character are all really valid options. ...That said, this is going out on a limb, but. What if it's That Man? As I recall, his body is starting to fail and he's de-aging which could cause him to be bedridden, and he has those machines with him to fight. Just occurred to me as I was staring at it.
BladeOfJustice7 Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Hopefully there's at least 16 for console. I'm expecting more or less 20 characters the first timearound with Xrd, by the time console release is out, considering that the entire initial cast for GG is roughly 30 when considering Overture. Also what if it's Crow, and he fights like Kokonoe, that is, using tools and stuff to fight. Or Paradigm with a new way of transportation.
TheRealBobMan Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Isn't Zato-One a mistranslation to begin with? I thought he was Zatoichi, named after the blind swordsman (since he's blind). Also, I heard they killed him off and made the character Eddie as a tribute to his original VA who died, so it'll be weird to have Zato alive again, not for story reasons but... you know. Assuming that's true anyway. I can imagine Robo Ky sitting on a throne/chariot with a bunch of junk sticking off of it, and that large round thing does remind me of Valentine's balloon, but I don't remember her having those chain like arm appendages (though I barely got to try Overture). I first thought Paradigm when I saw the chair-looking part, but he's not badass enough to ride around in something like that, and he certainly doesn't look like that on his own. Well, can't wait to find out who it is.

Well, can't wait to find out who it is. No, he's just named for Zatoichi. His name has always been specifically written in english as Zato-ONE/Zato-1 or in katakana as "ザト−=ONE". But it is true that they killed Zato off out of respect for his voice actor, which is why I'm doubly side-eying (besides story issues) that they've brought him back but... I think RoboKy is highly likely; the top right appendage looks like a grasping robotic hand and bottom left looks like a spinny spiked wheel weapon, very Robo-like... but there's something odd to me about the proportions of the main figure, compared to all the other character arts, for it to be Robo. I dunno.
fiendmaw Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Can anyone translate the name of the 2 new moves he has?
HoudiniJr100 Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 The new character is clearly Take-Mikazuchi. He'll no. Takemikazuchi is either in a satellite in a ghost terumi-like Titan form...or a goddamn persona...this is NOT either if those things XD
