[Septimus Prime]

It looks like she just older but is still trying to pull off her youthful hairstyle and outfit.

 

[Shadoken]

Holy shit.... I never really wanted Karin in the roster , but gaddamn that trailer was hype O_O

 

[Negaduck]

She dies look pretty damn awesome.

 

[Mik317]

she looks amazing.

Stage does too.

Face and stuff looks good in motion plus they have been adjusting stuff any way.

 

[Tizoc]

NICE TRY HYPE TRAIN, I ALMOST FELL FOR THE PANTSU TALK

So wait did you get off or?

 

[vg260]

I think she looks great. Like the redesign.

I think it'll still be Alex and Urien. Maybe Urien is a boss character at first but I'm not doubting the Siliconera rumour. They've been on the money so far.

I'm expecting that, but I'm just wondering why Capcom described that group of 8 the way they did. Misdirection?

 

[jerry1594]

Next up, SF2/4 characters probably.

 

[ZangBa]

Best part of that trailer was the stage. With her reveal, I feel more confident Alex will be in, so I guess for that reason I'm happy.

 

[Razzorn34]

I like that they kept the outfit mostly the same, but just updated it like Mika. Looks good.

 

[Momentary]

Her face and hair looked great in the video.

 

[Subaru]

Karin is a little big ugly now, but who cares, my main, day one.

Next up, SF2/4 characters probably.

Isn't Brazil Game Show the next event? The next character will probably be Laura.

 

[Renekton]

Does that mean she's legal now?

 

[direct_quote]

Next up is

 

[Rlan]

 

[Beelzebufo]

It would look really weird the way the select screen is now too, since they're awkwardly in between the SF2 characters. It also makes absolutely no sense with the color coding lol.

Alex and Urien confirmed for DLC.

 

[Mr_Antimatter]

I like the redesign away form a schoolgirl outfit. Makes me wonder what Sakura woudl look like, if she shows up as DLC.

 

[Hours Left]

I think she looks great. Like the redesign.

I think Alex could be classified as "classic" despite his sole appearance just because he's the hero of SFIII.

As long as we get both, they can call them whatever they want. I could see Urien being a boss character though so maybe he's not included in the initial 16 but is still in the game.

 

[Bruno_Arrais85]

Face is not good as always. I don't know why they reveal unpolished characters

 

[Rocwell]

Karin looks like fun and the new stage looks great too.

You can even see Karin's servant in the background.

 

[jerry1594]

Next up is

Na

Karin is a little big ugly now, but who cares, my main, day one.



Isn't Brazil Game Show the next event? The next character will probably be Laura.

Actually yeah

 

[Clawww]

seriously that stage is fantastic. awesome colors, awesome lighting, awesome contrast. no glaringly shitty textures.

 

[KidA Seven]

What is with Capcom making every blonde character ugly? I'm worried about Alex.

It's the eyebrows along with the brightness of the blonde hair. They had to make slight adjustments to Cammy as well.

 

[Beelzebufo]

As long as we get both, they can call them whatever they want. I could see Urien being a boss character though so maybe he's not included in the initial 16 but is still in the game.

But Nash is the big hero of Alpha and he's still in the "Not a SF2 character" section. Just like all of the characters that weren't in SF2.

 

[Tizoc]

Karn's model is IMO from a WiP build but bah gawd dat Japan stage!
IT'S SO FRIGGIN' GOOD!

Well I guess now is the time to get hype for the spanking room
HAMOCBOYZ!

 

[KidA Seven]

That stage is sick though.

 

[Troubled Bat]

Karin has some inspiration from Ingrid. Noticed that right away once I saw the trailer for her. Also, her stage is glorious! Best one by far!

 

[Dremark]

Daily reminder Karin is in the game.

Spoiler

And I couldn't be happier about it.

 

[Subaru]

seriously that stage is fantastic. awesome colors, awesome lighting, awesome contrast. no glaringly shitty textures.

The stage is really beautiful, but Karin's servants and some other stuff are still kinda low quality...

 

[Ferrio]

So we still got doubters on Urien/Laura/Zen?

 

[KTO]

I always thought she would be out of place in this roster in terms of story without Sakura, but now i'm thinking she will definitely be rivals with Rashid and his Arab money.

 

[Clawww]

hopefully you can bust fools into the banquet hall

 

[Skilletor]

She looks amazing. Definitely hype to try her out.

 

[Producer]

Well it looks like that fanart was somewhat on point

 

[Geminosity]

Thinking back on it, Karin being in makes a lot of sense considering she was created from Mika (originally Mika was supposed to be a more technical character but as they went on the character split in two eventually becoming the R.Mika and Karin we know today :3 )
At least if the wiki is to be believed

 

[Coda]

I dig her moveset and that Critical Art is pimp.

 

[Off-Kilter]

That trailer gave me chills brehs.

The music

The sweet stage

The ohoho

Perfect combination.

 

[Qvoth]

is there a stream now? capcom channel is just showing some schedule

 

[OmegaSmash]

That twirl kick she did in that EX DP kick reminds me of Lili's twirl in SFxT.

 

[RedEther]

Well it looks like that fanart was somewhat on point

I gotta agree as well

 

[vg260]

But Nash is the big hero of Alpha and he's still in the "Not a SF2 character" section. Just like all of the characters that weren't in SF2.

It was described more as 4 characters we haven't seen in a while, and not really not-SF2.

If it weren't for the Silionera rumor, it would look really bleak for those 2 based on the recent interview comments, so it's still a bit of a mystery.

That's what I want to know next.

Also thank god for a new stage and the Brazil one coming too.

 

[CoyoteSpitfire]

So we still got doubters on Urien/Laura/Zen?

Nobody should be doubting Laura/Zen after Rashid's reveal.

As much as I want them in the game, I'll doubt Urien and Alex until one of them is revealed.

 

[Hours Left]

But Nash is the big hero of Alpha and he's still in the "Not a SF2 character" section. Just like all of the characters that weren't in SF2.

I don't really see Nash in the exact same situation (though I do appreciate you calling him the Alpha hero, because I agree!), that chart I think is still giving off the wrong impression a bit.

With this reveal I feel more confident than ever that Alex and Urien are in, whether it be in the core 16 or 16+ boss.

 

[AESplusF]

Anbody complaining has got to remember how far sfv has come visually, quit complaining.

 

[ChouGoku]

This game is going to be one of my favorites I can tell. With Karin and R. Mika I couldnt give a fuck if they were in the game, I actually wanted their spots to go to someone else. Then I see them play and I want to main them. Every character so far seems so fun to play with, this is going to be like UMVC3 all over again where a lot of the characters are so fun to play as its going to be hard to pick 1 main. And that stage is dope af

 

[VariantX]

Her moves, that stage, her laugh.
Exquisite.
One of my fav alpha chars is back

 

[Lulubop]

So we still got doubters on Urien/Laura/Zen?

I don't think Alex and Urien are in the initial roster, n.

 

[Platy]

Isn't Brazil Game Show the next event? The next character will probably be Laura.

October 8-12

Unless they go Mika and decide to drop a veteran out of nowhere....

 

[Clawww]

I gotta agree as well

nah, the the actual double breasted riding jacket is way fucking better.

 

[NullMoon]

She kinda had a Street Fighter IV vibe with that crumple at that 37 sec mark.

 

[Neoxon]

Well it looks like that fanart was somewhat on point

Yup
