Karin announced for SFV

Is anyone else getting a slight Akira VF vibe from some of her animations. I'm liking that back/hip check slam

I'll be using her as my back up to the rainbow :D
 
Looking for crush counters will pay off with Karin

Damn, that's quite a conversion.
 
I love that background stage.

So nice coming to GAF this morning and seeing the title of this thread. SFV is making dreams come true. I'm looking forward to hearing the Japanese VA though, I can't be using these American VA in mah SF.
 
Karin looks great, 2nd Beta news is great, but damn at that Japan stage!
It looks awesome! Reminds me a bit of the Mishima Estate in SFxT...
 
Will 2nd beta feature offline modes?

I don't think any betas for SF V will have an offline component. I mean hypothetically they could make it so you still have to sign in and then once you're in you can play offline but it would be more trouble for them especially if people found away to trick the game after the beta was over. More importantly though there's just no purpose for their testing purposes as the beta exists to troubleshoot the online kinks and to get more feedback on the game.
 
Meh. Good for her fans I guess?

I thought this might be an R. Mika like reveal, a character I don't particularly like (hate in case of R. Mika) looking so much fun, but nope.
 
"Is anyone else getting a slight Akira VF vibe from some of her animations. I'm liking that back/hip check slam"

As mentioned previously, a lot of her moves are inspired by Baji Quan, which is the same Kung Fu style Akira, Julia/Michelle Chang/Leo from Tekken, Yun/Yang, etc. are inspired by.
 
Cool I guess, never got the frothing demand for her, that stage is amazing though.

Ah nice! Didn't know that, thanks :)
 
YES FINALLY A NEW STAGE - AND SUCH A PRETTY ONE!

(Hopefully it's not the last one we'll see apart from the Brazil one though...)

...

Oh and it's Karin!

(Meh - bring on Alex and Urien Capcom!)


If anything, this picture gives me hope that all the backgrounds shown in these character portraits do in fact show stages that will be in the game (eventually). That would mean we would get a New York stage for Ken, a Dubai one for Rashid etc.

I mean, if characters are not getting exclusive stages, why is Karin getting one that is specifically tied to her? That would only rub it in as far other characters go.
 
Not quite as good as Alpha. I was waiting for the laugh but it wasn't quite the same.

I think they changed her VA. Still sounds appropriate for her character but I think it's a different actress. If it's the same she must have used a different voice to make her sound older.
 
I'm really liking the design. She looks like an adult and her outfit, while being a school uniform still has that business look to it.
 
I know nothing of Street Fighter, I entered this thead, got one look at her and thought "She looks like she would have a japanese noble womans laugh"

Scrolled down and voila

I'm pretty sure it's not a school uniform. I really like that they were able to give her a new outfit that kept a lot of the look of the old one but let her move on from being a schoolgirl.
