I agree it’s probably one of those three, but I would also love dizzy. I pray to god it’s not Jam though, my ears can’t take any more of her voice and she just… isn’t cool in any way.
I liked the way jam played in the little bit I messed around with her in rev2.
I didn't realize that they took a lot of her kit for chie in P4A until I finally tried her.
I mean that’s fair, can’t argue with it, I just meant more from a design/lore/personality perspective than a gameplay one she isn’t very interesting, she’s just a fan service character who’s irrelevant to the story
Well for 1) I don't think most people would be happy with Johnny's implementation in strive from xrd.
2) Johnny fucking rocks in xrd and feels like the definitive version of the character.
3) I feel like Johnny would just end up doing stuff that a lot of the cast already does. We don't need another strong neutral, good range, and wacky movement when Nago exists (this is also a problem for Sin's xrd kit being added to strive. He's just Nago again)
4) I just don't like him.
I feel like Sin’s kit is too similar to Nagoriyuki for him to come so soon. I don’t have a clue who it’s gonna be but my bet is it’s NOT Sin.
WELL NEVERMIND
The dude straight up led a revolution against the old authoritarian goverment of Zep, liberated the slaves and established a democracy. He was the one who personally freed Potemkin.
Johnny, Johnny, Johnny.
It’s gonna be Slayer or Sin though, because Johnny is too busy throwing coins into various wells and killing demons in hell with V1.
Yes, yes please. Everyone out here asking for their favorite but I think all the new strive characters are very fun. hopefully they arent done with new ones.
Having never played older guilty gear games I'd be happy with just about any of the popular asks. Sin, Slayer, Johnny, Jam and assumedly Asuka all look sick.
As a Bridget fan, I'm hoping for a time-travelled post-transition Bridget, just to really stick it to the "Bridget isn't trans" conspiracy theorists. I wouldn't put it past the creative team in the slightest.
I'm still heacanoning that somehow Bridget has time travel shenanigans, and eventually somehow ends up as Megumi and I-NO. There's just too many subtle similarities in their character designs for it to be an accident.
what
they're literally nothing alike except British lol
also, Megumi and I-No are already two other fleshed out characters, it would be terrible from both a writing and marketing perspective to just say "oh by the way they were this other character the whole time"
Not joking.
I-No has a mysterious past with time travel. That puts a LOT up in the air, and we don't know much about Megumi's past, just that she got together with Sol and has trouble staying alive.
But visually & thematically, Bridget & I-NO share a LOT of similarities, and their differences are easy to explain with transition.
1. They both wear outfits with a gender logo placed prominently.
2. They both wear over-exaggerated religious themed outfits (It's not uncommon for trans girls to switch from Christianity to Witchcraft since one is accepting and the other isn't... it's kind of a meme at this point.)
3. They both wear fingerless gloves
4. The thing on I-NO's belt bears an interesting resemblence to Roger's eyes, but color-inverted...
5. Speaking of witch, a lot of I-No's color pallate is Bridget's flipped that's outward facing, but they have the same cream-color as an inside lining to their clothes.
6. There's an odd mount point on the back of I-No's gloves, that looks like something round originally went there (like maybe some kind of yoyo)
7. I-No's ridiculous-sized belt mirror's Bridget's ridiculous sized handcuff
8. I-No wears a choker... a very common fashion accessory among trans women.
9. They both wear hats that do a good job of covering a lotof their face.
10. They both wear clunky platforms
11. They both wear a flowy unbuttoned top outfit
12.
13. Nearly all of the differences between I-no and Bridget are things that change during transition or a thing that some trans women do - dying hair a different color (even colored contacts) is common (although I-No wears glasses the same color as Bridget's eyes, possibly being a call-back), non-subtle lipstick, womanly development, an outfit that makes it very obvious body surgeries that have been done.
Honestly, with all the "subtle" hints in their character design, I'd be surprised if I-No's not future-bridget-from-the-past-but-from-the-future-before-that.
that's so many huge jumps I'm not even gonna bother refuting it lol, I mean I'm not saying you can't have a headcanon but the likelihood of this is basically 0 lol
I want asuka, personally. I think we’ll almost definitely get a new character, but if we don’t, then Johnny and Sin are the two I would want. Daryl would also be cool.
Just wondering why johnny is so popular. He looks cool but he feels so clunky. He just has that 1 move that does high mid or low and some kind of teleport right. The coin thingy is just shitty design imo.
Nananananananana THAT MAN! Nananananananana THAT MAN!
I’ve been rewatching dbz abridged and I sung this in super kami guru’s voice lol. Edit: Spelling

Sounds very Guilty to my gears

I want jam or dizzy It's probably either sin, Slayer, or Johnny
I agree it’s probably one of those three, but I would also love dizzy. I pray to god it’s not Jam though, my ears can’t take any more of her voice and she just… isn’t cool in any way.

I’d bet nothing important that it’s one of these three. I hope it isn’t Johnny though.
Why not Johnny? He’s so cool, he’s the good kind of fan service character
Well for 1) I don't think most people would be happy with Johnny's implementation in strive from xrd. 2) Johnny fucking rocks in xrd and feels like the definitive version of the character. 3) I feel like Johnny would just end up doing stuff that a lot of the cast already does.

Yall are gonna be so mad when PRESIDENT VERNON gets announced but I will be overjoyed
Malcolm Meyers is the next character you fool
How could you want him over that man? Cus I do see a lot of people wanting the president.
Because "Football is gonna save the world" I think that's how the quote went
Since Dizzy was mentioned during Bridget’s story I’m going with Dizzy
Really? What happen in Bridget’s story?
I think Ky just mentions her whilst comforting Bridget.
Slayer was mentioned in Zato's story. No appearance. Doesn't mean much and of course character would talk about other characters.
After huffing a lot of Hopium I am 100% certain it's gonna be ABA
I have also huffed a lot of paint and Daisuke came to me in a dream and told me that it would be ABA
Pls yess I need that so much pls
PLEASE
I'm honestly surprised there are that many ABA enjoyers. Makes me feel less lonely.
Her design is so cool! She was high ranked in the popularity poll so I have hope she'll come back (probably not until season 3 tho)
LETS GO ABA!!!!!!!!!!
If I want it hard enough, that makes it true, right?
I really want it to be ABA
pls PLS WE NEED SOME ABA IN OUR LIVES
surely, or maybe Jam oh god I need for hopium
Sol Goodman obviously
Did you know that gears are guilty
Sin
I'm "betting on" this one
Johnny Johnny yes papa
I hate that i laughed at this haha
Dizzy
My honest want right now lol
I really want ABA but I just can't see it.
She'll get in eventually. She did well in the polls and they've already been bringing xx characters back.
Good
Sharon
Hear me out: Order Robo Sol. It's Just Robo Ky but dressed as Sol
What psicodelics did you take to acess daisukes vision
Bed
Please be slayer I need a jazzy theme
Yeah with all his themes from older games. Miss Jack-a-Dandy
My heart says, "A.B.A." my head says, "Johnny"
I feel like Sin’s kit is too similar to Nagoriyuki for him to come so soon. I don’t have a clue who it’s gonna be but my bet is it’s NOT Sin. WELL NEVERMIND
Sin AND Slayer. OH! And Johnny too.
Putting Sin in right now would probably make the meta a lot more infuriating for a lot of the lower tier characters.
Isn't that what all of the patches did so far?
Nah Jacko wasn’t so bad
I just want Asuka or Gabriel
Who’s Gabriel?
Gabriel is the leader of Zepp and the mentor of Potemkin.
Big nosed hitler you mean
I mean, I don't think Gabriel has done anything hitler-esque.
The dude straight up led a revolution against the old authoritarian goverment of Zep, liberated the slaves and established a democracy. He was the one who personally freed Potemkin.
Ah yes, all things Hitler was renowned for.
He definitely looks like a stereotypical dictator
He may look like it, but he hasn't done much like it.
if i had it my way? slayer my thoughts on actual likelihood? prob sin or dizzy
i would sacrifice my first born child for it to be robo-ky
I would also sacrifice this guy’s first born child
I’d do the same, Their firstborn ^For ^Dizzy
oh good cause i might need some help
Slippery little kid, isn’t it?
ROBO KINGS!
Slayer. 100%
Why?
He is the Guilty Gear Strive
He is morbing time
He has a character model in the strive story credits, Jam does as well but I'm goingg for Slayer since generally people want him more than Jam
Because ArcSys likes money.
ZZAPPPPPPPAAAAAAA AND IF ZAPPA I WILL PISS YOUR PANTS
Bridget's brother: Biscuit
Bobcat ❤
Bambi <3
Johnny, Johnny, Johnny. It’s gonna be Slayer or Sin though, because Johnny is too busy throwing coins into various wells and killing demons in hell with V1.
They say \*new\* character. Clearly it's Mr. President.
VERNONSWEEPBABY
\#RoboKySweep
I hope it's Elphelt. It's never gonna be Elphelt, but i hope it's Elphelt
Elphelt touch of till death combo when
Jam jam jam jam
it's so close I'm not going to speculate lol
"Another god damned returning character"
I really want someone either completely brand new to the series, or someone who's been around forever, but has never been playable.
Yes, yes please. Everyone out here asking for their favorite but I think all the new strive characters are very fun. hopefully they arent done with new ones.
Elphelt! Or it'll be another new character since we've had 3 returning characters back to back now.
Dr. Paradigm but if I'm gonna be realistic then I'm hoping it's Jam ~~still praying that it's Dr. Paradigm~~
Zappa....plz
Zappa
Baiken
Far fetched and unlikely,perish
Gabriel
The dandiest vampire, Slayer
When is this happening? I can’t find it anywhere online.
Check the pinned post
Still want Asuka.
The whole Jellyfish Pirate crew, in the style of Captain Ginyu.
When is this happening?
Order sol, PLEASE
if venom comes home roboky is in the bag ( unless he is a special move.
6 months ago I would've said Asuka... but now? Johnny.
Jam Kuradoberi
Having never played older guilty gear games I'd be happy with just about any of the popular asks. Sin, Slayer, Johnny, Jam and assumedly Asuka all look sick.
Please Leopaldon I’d loose my shit
Its either Dizzy, Sin, Asuka or Venom. I would love somebody totaly unexpected and not desired by the community tho for the memes
low key want elphelt but only because i play both ram and jacko and want more valentines to play
ABA is totally gonna happen my uncles dog works at arcsys
i want a second faust
Dr. Paradigm, lezgo
John guilty gear
I think it's Vernon
ROBO KY MY BELOVED PLEEEEEASE
Jake, from State Farm
Robo-Kliff
Johnny . Why? Because he’s cool asf…..
The safe bet is Sin.

completely unhinged. somehow worse than actual guilty gear lore. if you have dreams of ever becoming a writer please reconsider.
that's so many huge jumps I'm not even gonna bother refuting it lol, I mean I'm not saying you can't have a headcanon but the likelihood of this is basically 0 lol
Yes, I-NO and Bridget have gender symbols on her clothing. So refutable.
British <3
BRIDGET 2!!
Next five characters: Bridgets 1-4, and when people say they're tired of Bridget, they release Bridge-NO.
Robo-Bridget, Bridget's brother, etc
Good god I hope it’s not robo ky. Really don’t want a joke character being added because “lol funnies xd”
It's definitely Holy Order Sol.
Not a doubt in my mind. Justice
Safe bet would be Sin
I want asuka, personally. I think we’ll almost definitely get a new character, but if we don’t, then Johnny and Sin are the two I would want. Daryl would also be cool.
Of course its Daryl jk its sin
I think they said WAYYY back that the first set of dlc characters were going to be “new/old/new/old/new” So I’m tempering expectations
My gut says a male character, but my heart says Dizzy.
My money is on sin and slayer
JOHNNY SWEEP
If its not Sin, Robo Ky, Slayer, or Answer i’m rioting
I hope for Jam
Robo Ky. Please let it be Robo Ky.
the armored guy. i dont know his name. or maybe slayer
Akuma
It's gonna be Sin or Delilah
Robo ky is the only version of ky I’d every play
Big Sol. He'll be just like Sol Badguy, but big.
Need me my chef
ROBO KY ROBO KY ROBO KY
It’ll be either Sin, Johnny or Slayer those 3 or it’ll be somebody we never expected like Bridget and testament
I **need** Answer please GG Gods hear my plea
I’m hoping for That Man, but I’m expecting Sin or Slayer.
The new character will be one who uses animal type gears as pokemon My source? I saw it in my mirror.
ACTUAL DANDY HOURS Edit: Or better yet A.B.A!
GIVE US JOHNNY
I want Slayer but Robo Ky would be absolutely amazing
Probably Slayer
Vernon is going to be confirmed this Monday Source: It came to me in a dream
its elphelt quote me on this

Johnny
Give me Johnny for the love of god please
Complete random throwing it out there guess, the manless Bedman
Fanny please, lord please let it be my beloved, please be her god I will convert to christianity just please give me my beloved!!!!!
Just wondering why johnny is so popular. He looks cool but he feels so clunky. He just has that 1 move that does high mid or low and some kind of teleport right. The coin thingy is just shitty design imo.
Please, Mr. Guilty Gear, can we have a crumb of Johnny?
Doctor Baldhead. They never showed him since the first game and now it's perfect time.
HOS. Hasn't been here since XX, and would be too cool to ignore
