36* ButNotTooForeign: Japanese parentage, but she grew up in the States.
37* CuteBruiser
38* DistaffCounterpart:
39** Could be thought of as Kyo's. She styles her hair like his, copies his fighting stance, and shares a few (but not all) of his moves, tailored to [[PetalPower her powers]].

60->'''Fighting style''': Wind and electricity control

64----
65* BlowYouAway: courtesy of having Goenitz's spirit.
66* BrainwashedAndCrazy: emphasis on "crazy".
67* GrandTheftMe: By [[SNKBoss Goenitz]], no less.
68* TheDragon: To Gustav, although not willingly.
69* GoldenSuperMode: For the second round. This also signifies his change of ElementalPowers from wind to lightning.
70* LongRangeFighter: a lot of his moves are capable of hurting you from long ranges, including the infamous Yonokaze (although he doesn't spam it as much).
71* MysticalWhiteHair: has white hair and is capable of elemental attacks. He also fights more like a magic user.
72* PowerFloats: he floats instead of walking, which emphasizes his supernatural theme.
73* ShockAndAwe: wields lightning powers for the second round.
74* SNKBoss: He holds the distinction of being the youngest one ever in this series. His winquote sums it up quite nicely.
75-->'''Sinobu''': "[[EvilLaugh HAHAHAHAHA]][[LaughingMad HAHAHAHAHA!]] I BROKE YOU!!!"

85
86-> Another guardian of the Ten Sacred Treasures, Jun is a classy woman who enjoys the finer things in life. She joins Iori's team in ''[=EX2=]'' to help out Miu.
87----
88* CombatStilettos: Wears tall heels for combat. That may also be the reason why she runs rather slowly.
89%%* CoolBigSis: To Miu.
90* DanceBattler: Downplayed, she just likes dancing in his idle standing and walking pose, but her style is far from "dancing".
91* GrappleMove: She has both a normal grapple and an AntiAir grapple move, as well as a grapple DM.
92* GravityMaster: Most notably seen in her apparent SuperStrength; she's so powerful that she can smash her opponent into the ground with enough force, causing them to bounce ''vertically off-screen''.
93%%* IdiotHair: Has a ''long'' one.
94* MightyGlacier: Has the slowest run of all characters, barring Chang. Her gameplay is also power-based.
95* OfCorsetsSexy: Her top consists of nothing but a corset.
96* SlideAttack: One of her specials is a sliding kick.
97* StatuesqueStunner: She actually beats out Diana as the tallest female in all continuities at 6'6" (199cm).
98* SupermodelStrut: As a DanceBattler she is shaking her hips and her walking animation is a flirty gait that almost always has one, if not both, hands poised at her hips.

108
109-> A guardian of one of the Ten Sacred Treasures, Miu is a quiet and lonely girl. She joins the ''[=EX2=]'' tournament in search of her older brother Sinobu, who she fears has fallen prey to the Orochi power.
110----
111* AloofDarkHairedGirl: She has black hair and she's so quiet and gloomy.
112%%* AssKicksYou: One of her specials
113* BadassBack: Her backward walking animation and victory pose.
114* DramaticWind: Her standing pose has her clothes perpetually waving as if it's blown constantly by an unseen wind.
115* FeatherFlechettes: A few of her normals are accompanied by falling feathers that do extra hits, and some of her specials has her throw sharp feathers. One of her [=DMs=] has her spam the throwing feathers.
116* {{Joshikousei}}: She wears the classic Japanese schoolgirl outfit, although hers are colored mostly black.
117* MagicSkirt
118* TheQuietOne: She rarely, if ever, talks.
119* RazorSharpHand: Like Iori, she can slice people with her bare hands.
120* RedEyesTakeWarning: Subverted. She appears to not care for much, but if you're close to her, she'll shower you with genuine affection.
121* SchoolUniformsAreTheNewBlack
122* SlipknotPonytail: She lets her sidetail loose in one of her win poses.
123* ThisIsADrill: She has a drilling attack with her feathers in one of her specials and [=DMs=].

126[[folder:Reiji Oogami]]
127[[quoteright:179:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/reijiex2_8665.jpg]]
128
129->'''Origin:''' Japan
130->[[quoteleft:75:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/japan_4602.png]]
131->'''Fighting style''': Various martial arts
132->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/TetsuInada
133
134-> A member of the Hero Team in ''[=EX2=]'' alongside Kyo and Moe, he is a guardian of the Hetsu Kagami, one of the Ten Sacred Treasures. A representative of Chizuru Kagura currently living in America, he is the one who invites Kyo to the tournament so they can investigate the phenomena disturbing the seal on Orochi.
135----
136* ActionDad: He even takes his toddler daughter along the battles he encounters sometimes.
137* DivingKick: He has this as one of this [=DMs=].
138* DotingParent: Loves his daughter very much.
139* HopelessSuitor: Appears to be one for Jun given his dialogue during the Hero Team's encounter with the Yagami Team.
140* {{Hunk}}: ''Ab''. ''Sol''. ''Lutely''.
141* MasterOfIllusion: can create illusive copies of himself, somewhat like Chizuru.
142* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: he has a "ranbu" styled DM not unlike Ryo's or Robert's.
143* PlayingWithFire: a few of his attacks can burn his opponents.
144* RedEyesTakeWarning: Subverted. He is very focused on addressing his clan's duties, but outside of combat, [[FunPersonified he's more laid back and optimistic]], especially [[DotingParent when it comes to his daughter]]. In a fight, however, Reiji's no slouch.
145* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: Because his daughter dresses in a manner similar to Chizuru and even resembles her, there was a strong rumor that he was Chizuru's husband. The two [[JustFriends are merely good friends]] and representatives of the same clan.
146* TallDarkAndHandsome: At 5'10".
147* ThemeNaming: His moveset has a distinct wolf theme to it. Sadly, no [[Manga/DragonBall Wolf Fang Fist]] here.

153[[quoteright:177:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gustavex2_7531.PNG]]
154-> An illustrious millionaire hailing from Europe, he is a man who hungers for power. Having discovered a way to channel the spirit of Goenitz, one of Orochi's Heavenly Kings, he kidnaps Sinobu and subjects him to numerous experiments, transforming the boy into his puppet. Gustav uses the tournament as a test for his new weapon.
155----
156* BigBad: Of ''[=EX2=]: Howling Blood'', [[NonActionGuy although he doesn't do much]], instead leaving the dirty work to [[TheDragon Sinobu]].
157* CorruptCorporateExecutive
158* KarmaHoudini: Due to the [[AbortedArc presumed fate of the]] ''[[AbortedArc EX]]'' [[AbortedArc saga]], we've yet to see him get his comeuppance.
159* LongHairedPrettyBoy
160* ManOfWealthAndTaste
161* SharpDressedMan
