So, first they revealed the four mid-bosses (Dan, Goenitz, Geese, Demitri) in the "CPU Characters" section, then the two extra mid-bosses (Orochi Iori, Violent Ken) in the same section, and then the two secrets characters (Marspeople, Zero) also in that section, and all of them are playable. And now they've moved on to a new "Boss Characters" section since the CPU Characters section is apparently done.
I guess we can assume two things from this:
1: Athena and Red Arremer are not playable under any circumstances in the arcade version.
2: Athena and Red Arremer, like Shin Gouki and Shin Mr. Karate, are too powerful to be in the console release, and thus will be really, really boring to play as in the console version.
I don't mind unplayable bosses that are annoying to use when they're boring, like, say, Krizalid, Zero, Original Zero, and Igniz, but Athena and Red Arremer are two of the coolest character choices in SvC and now they've been relegated to the Boss Ghetto. That's just lame, especially since they were able to make Goenitz and Orochi Iori balanced, playable, and yet still very tough (or so I've heard) bosses.
Anyway, does anyone know what (Shin) Mr. Karate's real name is? The English portion says "Mr. Karate", but there's plenty of Japanese in front of the "Mr. Karate" part of the Japanese text above that. The image source calls him "Honki Karate" if that's any help.
EDIT: Does anyone else think that if you're going to be a badass manifestation of demonic martial arts evil, then you should, y'know... lay off the cheetos and booze? Nice guts, guys. Real intimidating. I quake before the might of Satsui no Cheeto and Kahlua Ryu Karate.

Honki means serious. So they are saying this how strong Takuma could've been in AOF1 had he been serious and not brainwashed.

Kinda interesting, I like the Shin Akuma art WAY better than the normal Akuma art, IMHO.
Also they changed "Zero" to "Rockman Zero" maybe to differentiate him from KoF Zero?
There's also something about a press release if you look on the main page, can anyone translate?

Oh boy, how right you are in there. I'm willing to play as Red Arremer and Athena too, and I'd like to play as them normally. It's a pity  ... so let's hope you were wrong in your assumings (nothing personal  ) although I assume the same.
Mwahahaha! I'm gonna murder someone...

Not sure about that... Athena seems to be really easy (well, easy for someone strong enough to beat Honki ni natta Tengu sama) and RA, if you have a projectile based character or Earthquake is hard to loose against.
But again, if they are as strong as the 2 bôsôzoku, or if it's just Red Arimer's AI that sucks, it would be a real pity. RA seems to have good mooves (special thoughts for what I think is the air throw of Jedah) and many different summons (at least 3 different Makaimura monsters). I WANT TO PLAY HIM!

Or maybe it's a hint that they will do a SvC2 with these 2 normaly playable, a little like CvS Pro had Dan and Joe?

There is still space for 2 characters on the webpage itself for "Boss characters". Hopefully they are the 2 spaces reserved for Red Arremer and Athena.
I suppose playmore still wants to keep them in the bag, judging by the fact that it is quite difficult to reach Red Arremer or Athena, and there are some people who don't read info about games on the Internet.

Which monsters? Red King, perhaps?
So, let's see...
He can
*spit fire
*spit fire from the air, like a super from Pyron (when the fireball hits the ground, there's a fire pillar)
* spit 3 little devil (I guess the little blue bitches). homing.
* Zombie invocation. Real pain in the ass. You can destroy the others with any projectile, but the zombies can take a Haôshôkôken and stay still. He uses them as a shield, then goes on diving.
* invoque the guys with a fork. What's their name... They are at least in the first Makaimura and Chômakaimura R... Well, the monsters with a fork, there's not many like that.
* stop for a while, moving his wing, then rush (unblocable). Real pain in the ass by itself, and when he has already summoned a few things, it's a nightmare.
* and do the air throw of Jedah. I think he only can do the throw moove (Jedah could just go down changing himself to a wheel if the other was too far away. RA's isn't better, it's locked somewhere and if you move, he misses).
No clues wether if some of these mooves are super or normal, and the exceed seems to be an invocation of 3 unblocable thingies, but no more details about it.
