Description
Here it is! The newcomer of Dead or Alive 5 Last Round, Honoka!
Age: 18
Title: Super Secret Fighting Chick
Occupation: High School Student
Hobbies: Watching wrestling matches and martial arts movies, and hot baths
Nationality: Japan
Favourite Food: Whipped Cream puffs
Family: Grandmother
Tag-Team partner: Marie Rose and Raidou(?)
Voice Actress: Ai Nonaka (also voices Bao Sanniang from Warriors Orochi 3, Dynasty Warriors 7 and 8, Annie Eilenberg from Atelier Annie, and Tatsuho from Toukiden: The Age of Demons)

Personality:
Having been raised all her life by her gentle and loving grandmother, Honoka is a sweet, easygoing kind of girl, but when she sees a fight, she cannot contain her excitement or the mysterious power surging within her. Honoka has a strange knack for instantly learning any fighting move she sees. She has kept this power, but has been itching to test it our in secret.

Which is why she said, "please don't tell anyone" ;3

Fighting Style:
Honoka studies her favourite moves and fighting styles, and combines them into a unique style which she calls, "Honoka Fu". Since her build is that of an average teenage girl, her moves, while skilled, may not always pack the same punch as the fighter she learned from. In her Hissatsu-no-Kamae stance, however, she is imbued with an unbelievable strength and becomes capable of techniques she has never seen from any other fighter.

Basically, her move-sets mimics many other fighters such as Hitomi, Jan Lee, Bass (yes, she can do the Bearhug), and many more. However, the results aren't the same, but when she uses that right hand of hers, which contains her hidden power, that's when she goes all-out. That's Honoka Fu!!

She's already on my list of favourite Koei-Tecmo characters, however, will her game play make up for it????
Gotta wait till Feb 17th. I already pre-ordered the game ;3
I know there's a few missing pieces on Honoka; the yellow strap on her gloves and her school symbol patch on her uniform. I didn't have room for either of those >3<

In case anybody asks, no, Honoka and Raidou will not be DLC characters for Ultimate. They're only on Last Round.
PS3/360/PC-Steam will be digital download only *Steam users will not have online play; a patch for that will be released 3 months after release.
If you want the physical copy, it's only on PS4/XboxOne.

Will there be another Core Fighters version for Last Round? Not as of yet, but Team Ninja might do that if sales succeed. Core Fighters is the Free-2-Play version of DOA5, only on Playstation system.
