Thanks for posting.

I just realized that the 20th anniversary is streaming now. Harada also said that they have more new characters aside her.
Watch the stream here: http://live.nicovideo.jp/watch/lv200633605

Here are some Lucky Chloe images:

Lucky Cloe's gameplay looks like Bob, Chrisitie and Lily's combine + cuteness.

[Westlo]

Marie Rose crossover.. oh wait.

[Ryonea]

Seems like they're really trying to appeal a more casual fanbase, huh? I understand why many people are worried, considering what Namco shown us so far.

New trailer:

from the 2nd location test, many people said that the graphic looks better compared to the 1st one, the hitsparks and slow-motions are considerably toned-down as well.

Nice to see some new stages and Lars and Law's new costume.

I hadn't noticed till now but Leo looks more beautiful now. I'm liking it so far (except for the excessive hit effects)

The other new character fights weird. She looks like she's an idol, but not of a Japanese descent(?) since she speaks English (but she looks like Japanese though)

[Amarantine]

It's a good thing this is already planned to be the conclusive game for the Mishima storyline, because I don't see much future for the franchise (or the least for my interest in it) if they're this desperate to reach out and pander to casual audiences.

I like how everyone's reactions to Lucky Chloe is the complete opposite of how people received Marie Rose in DoA5

Interesting tweets from Harada, lol

btw. Lucky Chloe is designed by Yusuke Kozaki (I'm not familiar with the name, though).

He was the character designer for the No More Heroes series, as well as Fire Emblem: Awakening.

I'd be pretty angry if some vocal whiners made her region locked/exclusive.

After sending Harada a message on twitter and seeing his reply, I honestly think he's just trolling.

God, that Lucky Chloe character just looks like trash to me. =_=;

Official version of Lucky Chloe and new gameplay trailer:

^ the graphic quality is said from the November build of the game, and it's still WIP.

Chloe is voiced by Hisako Kanemoto. She's said to be a foreigner who's Japan-freak and has a big secret.
Considering they're using a Japanese seiyuu, I assume she'll mostly speak Japanese, like Xiaoyu and Alisa.

[kenjiharima]

November build graphic, let's see later on if it can get back to the more realistic look.

Loving the supers especially Paul and Steve's, really packs a punch.

[Esclair]

Something seems to have been lost in the transition from 2D->3D

Ditto, Laughed my ass off when she was said to be taken out for US release. Can't help but be glad. Everything... EVERYTHING about her I find sickeningly annoying.

[Shadow5YA]

Sounds like this would be perfect for you:

[Vajra]

So it looks like Heihachi's wife will probably be the final boss

Harada said that's around 70-80% of the graphic quality. the one we saw in the location test was 60%. For 10% increase, that's quite a step. Although the lighting on the characters' clothes seems too plastic-y IMO.

Is that so? the characters look pretty detailed and realistic to me. Not only the females, the males look quite revamped as well. Paul, for example, look less comical IMO and also older.

Personally I'm fine with Chloe, as she adds more variety to the cast. Tekken has 40+ male characters already and they're fighter types.

The backlash for "anime-like" characters in Tekken has existed since the introduction of Lili, but now she's one of the most popular character in the series. Then there's Alisa and Lars, which end up being favorited by many players as well. Now we have Claudio and Chloe...
They're only a small portion of the casts and Harada already stated that they have some new characters to be introduced. The Arabian guy, for example.. which looks to be a proper fighter. I'm quite convinced some of the new characters will be the "normal" ones so there's nothing to worry about IMO.

I wish the newer ones have proper fighting styles, though... so far it's only Katarina who does.

Whoa! Seems screenshots have the better realism look I've always like about Tekken. Now that's more like it. Paul is 50+ he's my main and fav character in Tekken along with Law Lily and Heihachi. Ok nitpicking over.

Speaking of nationalities how many counties has been in Tekken?

As for Chloe I really don't mind, like there has been a dinosaur, kangaroo, bear, robot, cyborgs and a Vampire in Tekken Revolution...heck we might as well get a another cutie on the roster.
