Goddammit I was almost done updating the infographic.

Also PW already pointed this out in chat, but for those who haven't noticed there's a purple aura around Mitsu before Zas does the time freeze, so it might not necessarily be tied to RE.
 
I know i keep complaining about Ivy's shitty costume but i can't get over how cool her moveset looks. That CE looks awesome and might be my favorite so far, despite being a little too long.
 
Zasalamel, yessss! First 'earlier-than-normal' character too, though age wasn't exactly a barrier for him.

So glad he made it.

(Now lemme see that Lizardman)

Zasalamel getting a reveal this early was surprising (ahead of other Soul Calibur 1 stalwarts like Taki / Maxi / Astaroth / Cervy / Voldo).

Any thoughts as to why ?

I have a feeling it's to dispel feelings that this game would stick to the SCI roster like we all suspected for a bit. Though I think it would've been better if every SC1 character were revealed first and then they threw us a curveball with newer characters and newcomers.

well I'm glad you're going to stop and celebrate with the rest of us how we're getting Ivy and Zasalamel back

No point in just sitting around and whining. I use these sites to have fun, not stress myself out by arguing with people who clearly don't share my opinion. If I felt like having a deep debate about this, I'd just follow the discussion on ResetEra and hop in there.
 
Ivy's moves look super cool, so does her CE! She seems to rely more on magic and will probably be a "bad" character (according to her aura during RE), though many of the quotes were taken from previous games and I hope they'll fix her hair. Besides, her sword looks somewhat different during attacks, which is peculiar. GI before CE gotta be fun. The trailer made me so happy, can't wait to play Ivy now!
 
Sweet!
Ivy Critical Edge Stomp in the End: Awesome!
Also Zasalamel time manipulation, "I knew you would say that."
LOL:sc3zas1:

Edit: Now that i used an 8WAYRUN Soul Calibur character emoji:sc1tak1:, i realized again how cool they are to have!
Thanks to to the 8WAYRUNNERS who made them! *Wink, wink*

Hi all, just have time to leave a comment now. It's just my opinion and probably some things are already been said so I apologize.
I find Ivy's costume sublime (even if a little too revealing) because it's a mixture of every 1p she had. The base costume is from SC1, I see some lace inserts like in Sc3, strings like in Sc4!
Zasalamel costume is very good as well, maybe the thing on the shoulders is a bit too big but as for Ivy's it's just a small detail.
Also: do you think the new stage revealed is the Lost Cathedral from SC3?

I believe the new stage is a revamped version of the Lakeside Coliseum stage (I hope we get two alternatives like the jail and no jail version in SC III)

It has to be if we judge on this one:

But god I miss this song:


On the other side, I am happy with Ivy's look (specially the face):

I mean just compare her to how she looked in SC IV:

Its ok to talk about why you like /dislike it.

It looks like she's wearing less because she doesn't have a giant metal neck collar like in SC4 and obviously she isn't wearing a jacket like in SC5.
However, her skull shoulder pauldron looks cooler than any other version of her shoulder armor (makes it seem like the mandible can actually "talk" when the pauldron shakes).
I like the white glove on her right hand (good color contrast) and I like her a lot more with silver hair rather than a faded violet.
Her right arm also has some armor on her bicep to compensate for the lack of armor/clothing on her neck/upper chest.

She doesn't appear to have a snake motif anymore (just ivy vines/thorns) though the in-game model has snake scales for the texture of her body suit while the official art looks like some skin-tight latex material.
She has lace in strange spots but I think its trying to make the design more "busy" than it needs to be.

The part that hasn't grown on me is the strange "connector" piece between her bra. It looks like a weird piece of support that the designers put in just because they think that'll hide the cleavage to an "acceptable" level

She also has a little chain that runs underneath her navel that are attached to the fasteners to her garters. This gives her outfit more "character" and yet functionally I can't explain what it does.

His shoulder pauldron things look outrageously large. Its funny because not only is he wearing a hood, he also has these giant pointy shoulder pauldrons that would block his peripheral vision. It doesn't matter though, because Zas can see ahead in the future that would warn him from dangers coming from his "blindspots".
 
It bugs me to what extent I dislike Zas's clunky useless shoulder pauldrons. They even look like they're floating, kind of like SCV's CAS.
