I'm not that interested in the game, but the last one had Hinata from Haikyuu in it, so I'll assume he'll come back and will get a character intro video too? yes/no/maybe?

he was an assist only character in the last game and i don't think this game is doing assist only characters since it's a tag fighter, he might show up in the story mode since light is in it but i don't know

So far only male characters announced right?

Rukia is playable, that's it so far

It's been almost all main characters and main villains, and there's not a lot of women characters of those types in SJ. I mean, for main heroes there's pretty much just Medaka and Jolyne, I think. And only Medaka has been in the previous J-Stars game. Just Rukia so far for this game, really

You might get lucky and get the TLR girls in here somehow.

There's also Emma from Promised Neverland, but I don't think she really fights.

Saving Seiya and Shiryu for Brazil was such a good move. And speaking of which, Shiryu is quite the surprise. Not that he wasn't up there in the potential list - I just figured Ikki or Saga would've had priority first.

Now if only Bandai US could get these damn beta codes out. They were supposed to come two days ago, dammit.

Fuck I haven't even begun reading Yu Yu for my Jump Force challenge for christ sake lol.

Awesome addition, I'll finally read Saint Seiya because of this! Hoping for Fist of the North Star or Jojo next!!!!

I wonder if they're saving characters from MHA and other newer series for Jump Festa. Cause right now it's all been old stuff even though there are some post J-Stars series that seem like they should be obvious.
I'm thinking they aren't announcing them because of their own game coming out, announcing them now might reduce sales of that game.

There's a chance they'd go with Kagura as a 2nd Gintama character... if there are Gintama characters in the game in the first place.

I wish to love this game. All my manga and anime heroes from my youth. However, they can pour all the characters they want ( and I love me some Saint Seya ), but the Art Direction is just a turn off for me.

That's pretty cool! Caballeros del Zodiaco was huge here in LatAm

Yeah Kagura would be a good fit if they decide to go with 2 characters for Gintama, but they might just have Gintoki with assists instead.

Bit surprising that they didn't go with Sakura in the Naruto characters, unless they add her later.

Such a shame this game doesn't look better (like way better) than it does.

Of course we do, the creator is piece of shit that's another convo nor one that merits the character from not being included. But I really want kenshin he's been in jstars and the jump games.

Awesome.
It was only a matter of time before they announced Seiya.

Haven't seen a lick of Saint Seiya so I'm not familiar with Shiryu, but he looks cool.

I think no one should want a creator/series get more time in the sun knowing how much a piece of shit he is, and just wanting him because he's cool despite what he did says a lot.

Man I don't like the art style of this game, but that Sagitarius arrow, went stright to the feelings.

I might end buying it.

I had no doubt they will be in the game. But it's nice to have confirmation.

Next reveal better be Kenshiro or I'm not buying the game. (kidding, of course I'm getting the game regardless of Kenshiro. I double dipped J-Stars)

Disappointed I didn't get into the beta. Oh well, guess I gotta wait for the Open.

These avatars for the CaC also look pretty cool. Better than Shinobi Strikers at least.

You would be very wrong on that. As for it "saying a lot" all it says is that some people have no problem separating the art from the artist. Hardly a radical position.

By supporting said art, you support the artist.

Especially if money goes into his hands by his inclusion.

If his inclusion means putting money into that piece of shit's pockets then no, we really don't.

That's a different point from the one I was responding to. But sure, I'll bite. When I purchase a piece of media I pay what I consider a fair price for that piece of art. The relationship between myself and the artist is seller and buyer, its a one off business transaction. The artist is not responsible for what I do with what I've purchased and I am not responsible for what the artist does with the money I paid. Just the way if I pay someone to fit my kitchen and they go on a drug fuelled murder spree with the money I am not responsible for nor condoning that spree. Art stands alone from the artist.
