* SkillGateCharacter: Of the three "combo ring" characters, Shenlong is the easiest to pick up and play as since he only has a single combo ring to learn ("Snake"), whereas Long and Uriko each have two. Plus, his play style isn't as dependent on it as theirs are. The downside is, his combos leave huge openings, making them fairly easy to interrupt/punish, so long as you've mastered the game's evade mechanic.

* KickChick: Nearly half her moveset involves kicking. Appropriately enough, her lagomorphic beast form has powerful hind legs to serve the same purpose.

* KickTheDog: In the Bloody Roar Extreme V-Jump Book, he fights off Yugo, and then slams his trunk at Fang who wasn't even trying to provoke him. This is more like Trunk-slamming the Dog (or Wolf or Canine if you prefer). [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown This turned out to be unwise.]]

* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Goes from a BloodKnight in ''Bloody Roar 1'', to being on the run and more sophisticated in ''2'', to becoming a representative of Zoanthropes in ''3'' and is considerably less violent (although he's still among the toughest in the series). Think Beast from ''Franchise/XMen''.

Images of Jenny's zoan forms in 2 and 3 can be seen on the Bloody Roar wiki, but I can't image-link them here.


* ArtEvolution: In ''Bloody Roar 2'', her bat form has wing-arms that possess distinct hands on the end of her arms, looking more like a fusion of bat-wing and human arm. From ''Bloody Roar 3'' onwards, her bat form's arms are redesigned to resemble a real-world bat's wings, with the fingers of her hands elongated to form the flexible struts that support her flying membranes.



* BatPeople: She's a Bat zoan, resulting in her zoan form having bat-like ears, grasping claws, and bat's wings that allow her to fly.



* HalfHumanHybrid: She's classified as a bat, but her appearance is only partially so.
* KickChick: Nearly her entire moveset.

to:

* FullFrontalAssault: In ''Bloody Roar 2'' and ''3'', Jenny's bat form is actually stark naked, save for just enough fur to form the semblance of thigh-boots and a leotard to preserve her modesty. In ''Bloody Roar: Primal Fury/Extreme'', she switches into a leather corset and panties instead, which are implied to be her human form's underwear if you look at the respective models. Her state of undress doesn't impede her willingness to fight in the slightest.
* HalfHumanHybrid: She's classified as one of the few zoans who sit on the "more human" section of the SlidingScaleOfAnthropomorphism when they transform; instead of having a bat, fully fur-covered body, bestial legs and a beast's head, Jenny's bat form looks like her human form, but with bat's wings for arms, bat ears atop her appearance is only partially so.
head, and paw-like feet, with bone spikes jutting from her heels that are reminiscent of both a bat's prehensile feet and a set of high heels.
* KickChick: Nearly her entire moveset.moveset revolves around kicking, which make sense given her bat form turns her arms into wings that would impede her punches.



* {{Stripperific}}: Her costumes and the thigh-highs she wears invoke the look a classic street walker. While in beast form borders on full frontal nudity, save for a few conveniently placed fur patches.

to:

* {{Stripperific}}: Her costumes in ''Bloody Roar 2'' and ''Primal Fury/Extreme'' consist of a pink jacket (which looks different between the thigh-highs she wears invoke the look games), thigh-high boots, and no visible pants, which gives her a classic street walker. While in beast form borders on full frontal nudity, "street walker" look. In ''Bloody Roar 3'', she swaps them for a slinky backless dress and high heels, which still gives her a sexy but slutty look. And that's still a step-up from her bat form, which is [[FullFrontalAssault naked save for a few conveniently placed fur patches.patches]] in ''2 & 3'' and stripped down to her underwear (a leather corset and panties) in ''Primal Fury/Extreme''.

Uriko is a ditz, but she's far from stupid. At least, not until part 4.


* {{Flanderization}}: While she isn't the smartest character, she makes up for it by being incredibly skilled in combat, and being tough enough to single handedly rescue her mother. Later games up'd the dumbness factor somewhat, with her in the events of ''Bloody Roar 3'' and ''Primal Fury/Extreme'' out of boredom. ''Bloody Roar 4'' takes this to a ridiculous extreme by making her incredibly stupid.
