no offense but you're talking to a guy whose been playing gg since he was 12, even if litchi was baller as fuck in terms of gameplay I wouldn't know because that's not my style. And besides, badassery is an important part of picking a character, if you don't like your character(gameplay wise or just in general) why would you play as them?
eh Venom's okay, the dad i am homosex part pushed me away from playing him...well that and I have a different play style in that game.
sugita is more than enough of a badass VA to make up for ishiwatari's absence
