I Agree that viola is amy, but I Think it makes no sense for them to do it.
I feel like they heard people didn't like amy's fighting style so they found an obscure way to change it. Its funny because people hate fighting against her, no one hates her fighting style when they play her. But they managed to bring hilde back.
He brings up great points, Amy should be aging just as fast as Tira, which is obviously not at all. So I don't know where these boobs came from, and how she switch her dominant hand, or anything like that, I also don't know how she just escaped the man who practically had her on a leash, or why, of all things, she completely missed the sword that was next to her when she bumped her head, and decided to make up her own ridiculous fighting style.
Don't get me wrong, I have wanted a magical character that actually utilizes it in their fighting style since I picked up soul calibur, but I also happened to like Amy's style in three and four.
What I love here, is people talked about the fact that they didn't hate Amy because of her style, but because of her gothic lolita outfit. But guess what? Last I checked she's still rockin that shit. Congrats.
Also I still don't understand why people, including myself, are getting absorbed into arguments like this. We will find out EVERYTHING after someone goes through story mode. I think its safe to say that Amy as a style is dead and gone, but EVERYTHING about the character is here to stay. Which is fucking great considering I hated Amy as a character, I just liked her way of fencing more than raphs, no matter how unrealistic a way of fencing it was.
