As a kid I assumed no one knew how old these two were because they were mysterious ninjas, but it turns out Tecmo just redacted their ages in the English translation for obvious reasons. It’s funny they went with this route instead of just bumping both characters up to 18 years old. I guess Tomonobu Itagaki refused to tamper with the sanctity of his precious DOA canon michael-laugh

I’m sad to report the PS2 version of DOA2 seems to be one of those early PS2 games that’s interlaced to hell and back and will look like a jagged mess no matter how much you upscale it in PCSX2 ooooooooooooooh

    If they wanted to add a lady with a petite build to make the cast more diverse, they could have easily done so without also making her this child-like

    Yeah, I dont disagree with this part. They definitely could have done more to do that.

    Luckily this weird break in my brain where I dont read that as anything but a petite and youthful adult woman in a costume only applies to animated characters lmao. Otherwise I’d be in need of professional help.

    As is though, yeah, looking at her I can at least see where youre coming from. But its still not how she reads for me.
