As we now know Shin Hisako is getting released. Though how is she going to animate is the real question here. I’m hoping for something like Jigen-Ryu, Kenpo, and some other Japanese weapon martial arts involving swords.
The only animations I think she’ll borrow are the Influence Linker/Ender (the one where she dashes through the opponent), her crouch, and maybe some pieces of her On-Ryo-Zan moves. i.e the moves that involve slashing and natural sitting position since she won’t be as spooky.
I don’t think a lot of the other stuff will make it. Most of her stuff is either too unnatural for this more purified form or requires a polearm. I suspect there will probably be a surprising amount unique animations just because of the transition from polearm to sword.
I just want to know how she will look when standing still. That alone might give me a good idea
Hopefully leixia from soul calibur 5
I’m going to predict that all of her On-Ryo-Zan animations will become normals. I also predict that her command grab linker will be used in some way. Kinda like Vergil’s Rapid Slash
