Taki's Replacement Revealed?!

[RT0wn]

I'm glad the character looks generally enthusiastic, but I'm sad that Taki's being replaced. Taki was one of the few female characters I liked.

Judging by her hair she looks like the wild type though I also consider Taki a wild ninja.

Something also tells me she's gonna be one of those cutsy silly anime girl types like Mai and Ibuki.

Speaking of which her dress sorta resembles Yuffie's.

As opposed to the way the art used to look? They've always drawn young characters like that.

The thing is this is going to be the new Taki. Taki concept art has a more serious and mature tone. And now they are replacing it with another anime archetype. We already have X, Talim, Amy, Tira, etc... all with an anime feel, do we really need more. I don't want SC5 to become anime fan service.

I like her very much instead, I like that (for the moment) females are more dressed than SCIV
