I like Tira, she's creepy. Angol Fear really pisses me off and Ivy's new giant boobs make me LOL. Algol looks too much like Iska's boss from Soulcalibur Legends for me to take him seriously. The "Raphael = pedophile" thing comes from his complete obsession with Amy, his foster daughter. Who is significantly younger than him. Raph and Amy, though allergic to sunlight, aren't technically vampires, as they don't drawn energy from others to survive, and Raph spreads his disease out of a twisted desire to make himself and Amy normal by making everyone like them. Cervantes, on the other hand, could be considered a vampire because he must constantly draw energy from others or he starts to decompose. I don't know where the alcoholic thing comes from... his eyes maybe? Raph, Sophitia, and Siegfried all seem to have a bad case of pink eye in SC4. Tira does too, but her eyeshadow kinda hides it.

I didn't make it far enough before getting pissed off in SCL to know what you're tlaking about with algol. he looks alright to me, if nto a little bit like a kingdom hearts villan.

angol fear sucks. majorly. then agian, she was created by a guest artist.

the boobs are pretty ridiculous, but that's more a problem with the art direction than it is with the character themselves. Ivy even has a pretty solid story.

I really didn't like tira because in SCIII we had all these knights and samurai and martial artists and shit, then we had some goth chick wearing neon colors swinging a hula hoop. they fixed her a little in the outfit department in 4, and it's a little more reasonable. I don't like her voice now though. III was pretty good with it ("I can't WAIT to see you in pieces!") her story is pretty cool though, so I guess I can let her slide.

I know the story of raphael and all that shit, it still doesn't make him a paedophile. he isn't fucking amy, he looks at her like a father would a daughter, just more crazy like.

also, 4:15 mark:


Yoda's is the best though. Tira's is pretty awesome too if you do it to other girls.

When did Raphael become a vampire? I guess after being gay last game they needed to find the most macho thing to turn him into to shed that image.

he was never gay, he was european, and I'm sorry but vampires are the polar opposite of manly.

he fought nightmare in SC2 and was severely wounded. supposedly the evil energy from the sword seeped into his wounds and made him the way he is. he wasn't really full blown vampire until recently, prior to that he was just demonic. personally I liked him better as jsut a normal dude.

I still don't see what makes him gay.
