Koei Warriors had a recent chat with Team Ninja about Koei Tecmo's first official videogame, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2. The PS3 exclusive is a reworking of the original Ninja Gaiden 2, with extra features and new playable characters, including the big-chested kunoichi Ayane. But wait ... she's how old?
Fourteen, allegedly. That's quite bad, because I was talking about her huge busters to a Tecmo rep at E3, and I'm worried that this now means I'm a pedophile. Tecmo is clearly trying to make perverts of us all. Seriously though ... it's kind of worrying when you think about how much time they've spent crafting a teenager's bouncing milk-bollocks.
Among other details is the fact that Ayana has had a face transplant for Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2. Due to fan demand, Ayana's face will be modeled after her Dead or Alive character. She originally had a different look, but Tecmo was goaded into switching it back. You can check out the gallery image for a shot of what Ayane used to look like.
As you can see, the new image is more child-like, which is probably what fans wanted, since we've just ascertained that Tecmo fans are sick in the head.

B)I think there is a typo in the title....?
damn shame
It is possible to create good looking characters that appeal without being overly gratuitious for the sake of it. Perhaps you should look at what Eidos did with Tomb Raider character over the years.
And why the hell is this game an exclusive? Dont you like the sound of multiformat money?
It's weird she'd be 14 too since in the DOA games she's 16 and I hadn't heard of NGS2 being a prequel.
Though Ayane's always been the most extreme child-faced/largest chested character in DOA/NG. So her re-redesign isn't too shocking.
Oh fuck it just make us DOA5 already.
A new meme appears?
Still... 14 years old?? Do these devs not have daughters? (which presents possibly an even scarier thought).
Have a seat over there
Like I said, Lara Croft was once sold on this boob premise, but time gives a chance to learn and grow. I got sick of Lara and her rack ages ago, and I'm glad they changed her to be less about that.
No one is saying females that age can't have such mams. I just thought we'd grown out of having to sell games like this.
There's a way to do sexy things tastefully, though. Bayonetta does this well. Less is more can work.
she was 14 before the time skip
But I accept your sexual preferences anyways. Just don't expect me to let you babysit or anything.
The "national" age of consent in Japan is 13, regardless of sexual orientation and/or gender, as specified by the Japanese Penal Code Articles 176 and 177. However, "prefectures" can have local ordinances that prohibit sexual activities with any minor under 18. Thank you wikipedia.
I think this is an ingenious ploy by Koei Tecmo to point it how ludicrous it is to anthropomorphize what is essentially lines of code. They could just "Ctrl + F" all mentions of 14, replace with 18, and there will be no protests to ban the game.I love irony.
Oh hai
... and I am done.
What?
@Seltermx
You're not even a tad bit worried that they decided NOT to? Of course there would be no problem if she was older. But she's not! Sorry dude but that's creepy.
I better get to playin' my copy of NG2 on my 360 so I can 1-up these pesky PS3 owners!
Um, no. Yes, there are 14 year old girls with large breasts, but I hardly believe anything that large exists on a 14 year old.
Having spent the last few weeks touring America, I will tell you for sure there are big breasted women out there, but this is so fake it's almost disgusting. Have these people seen real 14-year-olds? I saw maybe 3 women tops with boobs as big as that, and they were all morbidly obese (throws up).
Team Ninja story-telling, YAY.
"no fat chicks." LOL just kidding:D
