Der ominöse fünfte Teil der Samurai Shodown Serie:

Es ist schon der 8. Teil, bin mal gespannt, ob es ein Wiedersehen mit Asra, Hanma, Morosumi und Shiki gibt. Shiki gibt es ja schon als 2D-Sprite.

Charaktere:

Haohmaru
Ukyo
Nakoruru
Rimururu
Genjuro
Gaira
Hanzo
Galford
Shizumaru
Kagetsu
Suigetsu
Jubei
Tam Tam
Charlotte
Kyoshiro
Basara

Rera
Rasetsumaru
Suija
Enja

Are the returning characters. This time there is to "shura" (slash) or "rasetsu" (bust). Rera = Nakoruru (rasetsu), Rasetsumaru = Haohmaru (rasetsu), Suija, Enja = Sougetsu, Kagetsu (rasetsu) respectively.

Yoshitora Tokugawa

Has 3 or 4 swords on his back.
His buki-hakai (super) finishes with the crest of the Tokugawa family.

Kusare Gedou (rough trans: dirty bastard and yes, that's his name)

Seems to be a rather large character.

Mina Majikina

Archer. From the names of the moves, she seems to be a Ryuukyuu warrior.

Unhi

Uses a Chinese sword. Perhaps related to Wang-Fu?

NG Forum:
-ss0 has at least 24 characters.
-at least ten are new or new sprites with bust movesets (some exactly the same like suija a sogetsu clone with new sprite/stance and armbands as weapons or evil hao (who looks fucking mad!!) who has his bust movelist slightly modified and a completely new sprite that looks hell cool.
-there might actually be one bg for each character. some are new, some are ss3, some ss4 and some remakes of ss2.
-new characters are a kung fu/kungfu sword chinese guy (old) he even has a cool hongkong movie style fly move [Smile]
-a girl with a bow who is the 4th silhouette.
-a huge deformed ogre thing which looks sorta tamtamish but about 1000x weirder.
-an evil nakoruru with a new sprite + new normals, she is with the wolf.
-rimururu is completely redrawn but seems to have the same moves.
-the new main char it would seem is a guy with about 4 swords strapped to his back that sorta reminds me of amano
-the kazuki clone/with new sprite and armbands as well
-returning chars are tamtam, charlotte, basara, kyoshiro, jubei, rimururu, hao, ukyo, nakoruru, genjuro, hanzo, shizumaru, kazuki, soggy, galford and gaira.
-new button layout and systems. there are three bars life (only one bar long, has a marker on it that indicates some line, dont know why can be blue red and yellow not sure why), underneath life is a green bar which seems to be a guardblock bar, not sure though. and at the bottom the rage/super bar.
-a = light, b= med, a+b=hvy, c =kick, d = wtf can do a hop with d, forward and back roll with d, maybe taunt, is also used for supers (c+d, universal motion of a fb)
-music seems to be rehashed ss2/3/4
-same throw sys as 4 (the push)
-damage is way off, this game seems a bit fucked for it.... i fought kyoushiro and i shit you not i was left with 5% after he did the frog tongue grab THREE TIMES, only 3 times = almost dead....

KLICK HIER

Youhou! They updated everyone AND they all have a scenario! Great!
So.. Nakoruru searchs her father (who should not be dead, I think he was in her background in a past game... or was it her grandfather?)
Rimururu changes her seiyu for the 4th time (and she runs after her sister who has work to do and doesn't have time for babysitting, goddammit)...
Unpi (well, Yunfei) is over 1000 years old (and unfortunately, his wife wasn't... aha!)
Rera is not played by Nakoruru's VA (Ikoma Akemi, who still plays the original Nako) and she's awaken after Nakoruru gets kicked by a bear (and Rera comes and says "we mustn't die now, we have stuffs to do, let me handle this", she takes Nako (well, her) body and kicks ass. Nothing about her stupid wolf.
Rasetsumaru isn't played by the VA of Haomaru, and wants to kill Haomaru (either he's a completely different person or he doesn't know he is Haomaru.) His bloodtype is 'makai A', as for Enja and Suija, 'makai AB' and 'B'
Sôgetsu and Kazuki have to escort Hazuki to Hinowano kuni (to awake her to her true strength?)
Enja and Suija (who are not played by the same VA as Kazuki and Sôgetsu) are demons that free themselves from their seals near the kazama village and nearly (totally?) destroy it not long after Kazuki and co left. Someone says something about 'not letting them get near hinowanokuni' before getting grilled. They both want to get a magic there wich should, I think, allow them to fusion with a human (aha!) (And I guess we have the explanation for Gaô's second form)
Galford's father was called... Washington?
Shizumaru wa kodomo dakara shota ha nannanoka wakaranaishi, he leaves the people who adopted him (he's still, or already, amnesiac) to Hinowa for he heard he could easily find a job there because he thinks the people who adopted him will have a better life without him.
Jubei is a dirty oyaji who loves young girls
Basara barely remember chasing Amakusa and a demon, and he don't remember what happened next. Then, he follows Kagaribi without asking questions (how convenient).
Gaira scares children (and Kusaregedôsama eats them)
Charlotte Christine de Corte has a funny name, hates rats and sings opera like every french woman.
Tamtam gets his ass severely kicked by Gaô.
