And yeah, they actually made her outfit worse looking.

BOBBY DON'T RUIN THIS

 

[Platinum_D]

Thank you very much Capcom

 

[KidJr]

Fucking hell this street fighter is going to be great

 

[Triple Da G.O.D!]

OK.

We GOT ASS, STUNNERS, ASS, NADESHIKO, MO ASS, EVEN MO ASS AND A KINNKU BUSTER!!!

Be still my beating heart! Welcome Back, Mika! You've been missed!

 

[Grakl]

You never got why an attractive female character with huge tits and a ridiculously revealing outfit was popular among a certain demographic?

If anything, the unapologetic hypersexualisation and male gaze camera in SFV will make her more popular than before.



edit: "it's her moveset and/or wrestling gimmick" is the FGC version of "I'm buying Playboy for the insightful articles".

I'm gay and I like her tho

Hella hype, hope this means Urien is in too.

 

[E_Darkness]

I love her normal outfit but I can't wait to see what they do with her alt costumes,

Put hearts on her nipples like she is supposed to.

 

[Heypoppy]

She looks retarded as ever. Wasted slot. Could've been Q, Oro or someone more interesting and relevant to the SF mythos

How dare anyone want to play as her now.

Or even before.

It's all sexual.

Humans are incapable of divorcing those feelings. In fact, every time I see a dude play chun li I think he's gonna whip out his junk and start beating off.

 

[Scotia]

Her design isn't the best in the world, I admit that, but R.Mika is just a character I can't hate for some reason. I'm hyped she's back but more than anything I'm hyped that the Siliconera rumours might turn out to be true.

 

[Sephzilla]

 

[sixteen-bit]

lol. Her V-Skill is to cut a promo.

They thought of everything.

 

[entremet]

NO FUCKS GIVEN: THE CHARACTER!

Trailer was surprisingly hype. Over the top in the best way. I gotta say I think I like the look of Mika's partner more than Mika herself though.



Yes, everyone who likes her does so ONLY for the sex appeal and there are NO other redeeming qualities whatsoever. You figured it out - everybody who says that is a liar and only you were able to see through their deceit!

I'm not saying sex appeal doesn't factor into her appeal at all but you being all dismissive (hell there have already been people who posted that they don't like her character design but still like her) in this manner is just being jerkish and high horse-ish :/

I remember when I first saw her in A3, I just though she was super silly and fun.

Even though she built a like shit brickhouse, you don't really look at her like that. She's just ultra wacky and weird.

 

[mreddie]

Mika 3:16 says I just whipped your ass...with my ass!

 

[Amedo310]

Muscle Millennium and Kinniku Buster make their way to street fighter. Needs more Muscle Revenger, Muscle Inferno, or Ice Rock Gyro.

 

[Toxi]

Seriously though, if she's actually a power character with higher HP I'm all for it. It's ridiculous how few Capcom characters avoid the vagina tax.

 

[Stone Ocean]

Q is literally a mashup of Robot Keiji and Boxer that means jack shit for the plot. Soooo interesting and unique

 

[georly]

So instead of two heart pasties, she now has one giant heart-shaped cutout in her top. Ok.

 

[Lernaean]

If you are worried about that, you should probably stop playing fighting games in general.

This.

Right? She looks like a heavy hitter already. And she's not Fuerte so I'm game.

 

[88random]

Awesome. I really like what Capcom is doing in terms of gameplay

 

[Japanmanx3]

I'll main her for a while to see whats changed. Always been a fan tho.

 

[Sesha]

Fuck yeah! Mika! Her animations are great.

Better yet, she has a tag mechanic with Yamato Nadeshiko! Megaton!

Excitement aside, their character models are horrible. And they messed up Nadeshiko's design.

 

[JediLink]

Glad to see her back.

More like backside amirite?

 

[sixteen-bit]

First M-Rated Street Fighter incoming?

 

[Fersis]

Really like the idea of the tag partner.
Consider me hyped.

 

[SoundPulse]

I want to play as Nadeshiko too, Capcom. I'll accept it if she's just r-mika with the roles reversed.

Get over yourself.

Her outfit is ridiculous and always has been (to the point where I don't really find it attractive at all), but she was a really fun character and certainly still looks to be.

 

[SSReborn]

Maaan the tag moves thooo.

 

[Trey]

Looks like a functionally well made character. Not feeling the design though. I hope the alt and dlc costumes salvage the character, much the same way I'm praying for deliverance from banana Ken.

 

[K.Sabot]

I love how troubling and problematic her design / super is.

problematic

 

[90TilInfinity]

Okay, the tag mechanic with Yamato is dope. I really hope switching them (even as DLC) is an option too though. We need high HP female grapplers in, and she fits the bill perfectly.

 

[sixteen-bit]

I want to play as Nadeshiko too, Capcom. I'll accept it if she's just r-mika with the roles reversed.

The character model is so good it'ds be a waste if they didn't offer this as an option

 

[kewlmyc]

I don't know why but my mind immediately jumps to "death by snusnu".

Anyway, she looks very unique, especially with her assist feature which I assume is unique to her. Her costume transition to 3D is decent. SFV sure loves ass and legs, doesn't it.

 

[Xater]

I hate R. Mika's design but her wrestling move set just looks awesome. Well accept for that super. What a travesty.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

The stunner is great.

 

[jbug617]

She is playable at PAX

 

[DustyVonEric]

Yesssss!

 

[Apathy]

I can't help but see the Stunner being used at .31 and know somewhere right now Jim Ross is yelling it.

I haven't watched wrestling in what feels like a decade, but I saw it and Jim Ross' yelling "stunner! Stunner!" still came into my head.

 

[SgtCobra]

Trailer was cool as phucc, her voice fits her so well. She being a tag character is also very nice, good thing that they're making sure every character feels different. The character model needs work though, especially her face.

Yussssss

 

[Gbraga]

WOOP WOOP. I like her, her design is still dumb, but the hometown is represented and she looks fun as shit.

Can we expect Urien as well? Pleeeeaaaaaase

 

[Sephzilla]

I hate R. Mika's design but her wrestling move set just looks awesome. Well accept for that super. What a travesty.

Her super is a stinkface, which is totally a part of wrestling

 

[convo]

First M-Rated Street Fighter incoming?

USK 16 in Germany probably. America can handle some gore and shit but BUTTS, no way that the high morals of American parents can allow for that to be shown ,

 

[Buzzati]

Awesome. I really like what Capcom is doing in terms of gameplay

The game is quite a bit more barebones than SF4 in terms of mechanics, as far as I can tell so far. The competitive meta game will be interesting.

 

[Tizoc]

I really don't care that they add the 'fanervice' stuff, her trailer was hype and props to Capcom for having her wrestling partner as part of her moves, I've rarely ever seen that in fighting games (KoF Strikers don't count!).

As I posted long ago, Mika's design you can look past her sexiness, with SF5 they managed to keep that as IMO she looks A LOT more fun to play than in SFA3.

 

[Leafhopper]

Get over yourself.

Her outfit is ridiculous and always has been (to the point where I don't really find it attractive at all), but she was a really fun character and certainly still looks to be.

No don't you know. The only people that want R. Mika where sexually attracted to her and didn't find her fun in the Alpha games at all. /s

It's almost as if SF isn't super serious and has goofy looking characters at times or something.

 

[Pompadour]

I wonder if an alt costume could be that you play as her tag partner and Mika does the run-ins?

 

[Degen]

nice! more grapplers = more characters I'm actually gonna bother with after the beta

I really thought they'd tone her craziness down but they did the total opposite, lol

 

[robo_qwop]

So that's her V-reversal, I guess?

 

[Acquiescence]

What the hell is Shay Fox doing in a Street Fighter game?

 

[Lunar15]

nice! more grapplers = more characters I'm actually gonna bother with after the beta

I think Cammy's new design was a good indication that they had no intention of toning anything down.
