Yeah. Sorry about the massive pics. I tried downscaling them, but it didn't work. Oh well. You can just download them and downscale them on Preview or something.
One particular aspect of this art bothers me. See if you can figure out what it is.
Astaroth:
Cassandra:
Mitsurugi:
Nightmare:
Sophitia:
Taki:
Ivy:
Siegfried:

I like Siegfried's new outfit, and Nightmare looks better than ever! Ivy keeps losing her clothes more and more though.

| Note how Sophitia is crying. That's because in Soul Calibur III they took her shirt. In Soul Calibur IV, they took her bra. |

The lack of a bra for Sophitia is regrettable, but out of the three female characters shown here, Ivy is the absolute worst. If they make a Soul Calibur V, Ivy probably won't even have a costume. She'll just be naked. And if she does have a costume, it will only be enough cloth to cover her nipples and a VERY skimpy G or V-string. And thigh highs. Can't forget those.
Ever since Cassandra's introduction in Soul Calibur II, her outfit has actually been skimpier than her big sister's. While some may argue the point that you see PLENTY of Sophitia's panties, note that you see more of Cassandra's because she's constantly bouncing up and down to an absurd degree. Now, it seems they're not even wasting time with having Cassandra's skirt fly up. They're just going to give us the goods 24/7. Umm... yay?
True, Sophitia is losing her clothes as the games continue, but if you look at the RATE that she's losing them, she's losing them far slower than the other female characters, such as Ivy and Seoung Mi-Na. My primary gripe with her new outfits from III and IV is that they're just plain white. White and Blue looked SO much better on her! GIVE SOPHITIA HER BLUE COLORS BACK!!! |

Very astounding. You managed to hit all the points I was going to make EXCEPT:
WHAT HAPPENED TO ASTAROTH?! HE'S A WALKING BOULDER!! AND HIS AXE LOOKS LIKE IT'S MADE OF ASTAROTH'S SKIN!!

I think that if any other pics come up, they should also be placed here for reference.

Well anyway, out of the female characters shown here I like Cassandra the best, her design is cute. Sophitia comes in second, with Taki right behind her. Ivy...her new design doesn't really interest me. :\
Out of the males, I like Nightmare and Siegfried the best. Siegfried looks more badass than ever.
And before any of you ask, no, I didn't get my name from this Nightmare, although he is one of my favorite characters, alongside Siegfried and Voldo. |
