For those who don’t know about Unika the new character in season 4, she’s a character from the upcoming Guilty gear anime: Guilty Gear Strive: Dual Rulers
Hopefully they’ll also bring back her English dub performer Emi Lo to voice her. We know more than likely Aoi F’N Yuuki is returning as Lucy in the Japanese version. “And hopefully modders mod in Maomao from Apothecary Diaries since she has the same actresses as Lucy.”
to be fair Harada himself said before T8 even came out that the first season would not contain any guest characters at all and that was hard locked. so that doomed at least a year of potential guest character speculation.
@@Mene0 He did an interview about that recently. when he said Heihachi was completely dead it was the standpoint of the Tekken team to have him truly be permanently dead. but they discovered while making Tekken 8 that with various metrics showing the popularity of the character, the willingness of people to have him back, and Tekken's 30th anniversary coming up, they thought everything could line up in a way to make it a good move. He truly intended not to bring him back but things just worked out in favor of him returning and not just staying dead.
@@dee_dee4640 You know now that I think about it, it makes 100% sense since Arc System Works did do that Kill La Kill 3D Arena Fighter that was good but unfortunately short lived.
@Cal6942 I was like 95% on Dizzy, Raven & the new anime girl.. but had no idea who the fourth was going to be, so when Venom showed up I was shocked and even more at Lucy
I imagine Lucy will be doing some Monowire stuff, but I want to hear the theme. It won't be 'The Song', but I want to hear a Guilty Gear theme for her.
Lucy unironically is a VERY fitting character to plop into the GG universe while still being unique at the same time. Her artistic aesthetic, choice of weapon, and pure VIBES is a perfect blend for a strive character. I'm also just imagining the references to other Edgerunners she might make during gameplay. Knowing Arc System Works they're gonna pay close attention to detail.
I would agree but technically... all types of modern tech is banned on the world of Guilty Gear (hence why it looks both modern, yet very few use tech that isnt powered by magic) so I have no clue how Lucy could even exists I am willing to be surprise, but they deffo need to pull on some strings REALLY hard to make her existing in a world were people despise tech so much without it being "she just spawned here one day like an Isekai"
@@EzKay_PX Not really, there's plenty of stories with outlier characters like that which go against the status quo. Makes for more interesting perspectives too in my opinion when a common narrative gets challenged. I could see GG making an original character that is technology based eventually.
I'm 99% sure they only picked Lucy out of the cast because she's the hottest. David and Rebecca both fit better imo. Lucy was the hacker of the team. Fighting wasn't really her thing. She's got a monowire and that's cool but none of her hacking powers would even really work on people in the GG world. Meanwhile David and Rebecca have all sort of combat implants and weapons.
The Zappa, Jam, Robo Ky (unless he is incorporated into Venom's moves which would be more lore friendly due to the timeline rn), Answer, and Kum nations must unite for a Season 5 Slamdunk.
Gotta say, as unlikely as it is, my pipe dream for Arcsys’ next game is a licensed Transformers fighting game. Just imagining their style of gameplay and graphics with those characters is so tantalizing, but I also know how unlikely that is.
That sounds so awesome I would definitely be a Starscream main. I really wish capcom would make another cyberbots but that’s also another unlikely pipe dream. Hopefully at least Jin Saotome returns in a new MVC
@@HazeEmry They are in the same universe. But the show takes place like 20 years or something in the past. But u don't have to play the game, but I would recommend to play it if u like the anime
@@fluidthought42 Knowing Daisuke, her theme will probably have the motif of that song in it somewhere, same way the Strive themes have motifs from previous game themes
Damn, as a retired Dizzy main and Cyberpunk fan in general, I just ended up being more excited for Lucy. Damn...should I really go back to playing GG? I don't know.
Y'know, I'd love to see a character from *Skullgirls* be a guest character in a fighting game; closest we've gotten is, IIRC, Filia in Indie Pogo (I think that's what it was called?).
Not gonna lie, I wasn't expecting Lucy of all people as a Strive guest character. I'm down for it though, Edgerunners was a great anime (though I would've preferred David or Rebecca XD). I bet she'll probably be a zoner with her Monowire, it'll be interesting to see in action.
First time when I see in steam upcoming season 4 all my attention was on Dizzy and Venom, I SEEN the other two characters but ONLY NOW did I find out that Lucy is from cyberpunk edgerunners and I am shocked beyond belief…
Looking forward to season 4 and Dizzy and I wonder if Lucy will be a lazer whip character also i wonder if she has a hack overdrive..Potemkin may be in trouble or her overdrive hacks something and robo-ky pops out and wrecks havoc
I want a dizzy back for so long I never watched cyberpunk because I'm pretty sure I got spoiled on everything but this does tell me strive is not done after this season pass
I watched edgerunners 3 times already and have like 400 hours in cyberpunk so I'm sooo excited for this....hopefully this is only the beginning for Lucy in video games ❤❤❤
Hoping Lucy is similar to Eltnum lol only cuz im a Fate fan/Type Moon fan so anything fate related goated and i feel like Eltnum moveset fits perfect for Lucy lol
I literally bought guilty gear because of the Lucy announcement. 10 hours in and 8 floors later I now realized I was missing out on this gem of a game.
I imagined Cyberpunk Edgerunners as a collaboration in Fornite or Nikke but it would never come first in a fighting game. Lucy coming to Guilty Gear Strive the best 😎👍✨1:35 reminded me of the announcer of the first Dance Dance Revolucion nothing to do with Guilty Gear but I found it curious.
If someone told me a fighting game was getting a Cyberpunk Edgerunner character as a guest fighter, my first guess would be David, followed by Maine or Rebecca. Lucy was not expected but is welcome.
When I saw them announce a guest character I could have sworn for a second that it would be 2B because she is also in GranBlue Fantasy VS and she tends to be in just about anything. Lucy for sure came out of left field.
Honestly if I had to pick a dlc guest for Strive Itd be Vash from trigun however Cyberpunk getting more love and one of the characters being in a FIGHTING GAME is so sick to me. Bring in Adam smasher to tekken 8!
I thank God it's an actually new, fresh, different guest character, and not fkng 2B like always. I swear 2B is the Terry of anime fighting games, she is everywhere lol Btw welcome back mommy Dizzy, tfw still no Jam but we got Dizzy back, I'll take it. With so much updates in a single season I think we can expect a Season 5 next evo, let's go!!!
i made the mistake and checked reddit after the anouncement and was baffled. Most people seemed to be extremely angry that a guest character is coming to Guilty Gear and comments like "they would pay extra money not to have Lucy in the game". I was really surprised by that, like do they hate their own game so much that they don't want it to succeed? This will bring new players to the game and fund the next seasons or even the next game. I don't get it.

She'll definitely use her Monowires. I wonder how her hacking skills will translate to gameplay.
@@riemaennchen but the whole premise of Guilty Gear is that there are no computer anymore, what is she gonna hack ?? 🤣
Guilty Gear Strive getting an out-of-left-field guest fighter before the new Tekken was not on the EVO bingo card for many folks, I imagine.
