"Mina (SS) question" , posted Sat 27 Mar 12:35

Asking this for a friend, I don't care too much about the game so I couldn't give him an answer:

What happens with Mina at the end of the game? He seems to have read somewhere that she dies.

Thanks for any answer.

We don't know for sure. I think she kills Champuru then kills herself (because she's so dark and goth) but she can also just kill him and not die, or beeing killed by him, or brighten a little spark of hope and love in the monster's heart and then have dirty beastiality sex with him.
Given what she says before the screen turns black, the first one is the more probable.
Aaaah, I love this game. Now give Kusaregedo an alternative zetsumei ougi in which he eats Rimururu (and her sister as well, why not) and I'm even more sold than I am.

That site has some translations for SSV endings.

From looking at her ending, I THINK she doesn't die, but Im probably wrong

I'm ok with it, but only if Rera permanetly seperates herself from Nako first.

Also, the blood in that last pic from Mina's ending screams seppuku IMO.

I'm glad there's SOME kinda translation for the dialouge from SSZero, though.

Hell Yes.

That reminds me, does Poppy even have an ending? If so, I must see it.

Why must SNK always kill off hot babes with potential to be great characters with unique fighting styles? Do they have some sort of secret hatred for women or something? I'm surprised Athena, Mai, and Yuri didn't die back in KOF '95.

SNK kills off its own characters all the time (I think that the KOF series has the highest ratio of characters that die to ones that live than any other long-running fighting game series I know besides maybe Mortal Kombat, which is... well, Mortal Kombat). Seems like a waste to me but I guess they just bring the characters back in dream matches, anyways.

Anyways, I'm in the "Mina killed herself" camp, since she basically says to Champuru, "I have to destroy you, but even after I do, I'll still keep my promise that we'll be together forever" right before the screen fades and there's blood, so...

I'm gonna guess that they kinda left it up in the air in the realm of "maybe she dies with Champuru maybe she doesn't" because...Mina doesn't appear in Samsho 1-4. But maybe she'll be alive later and make a return in some future SS game.

But... she'll be old by then, which would mean no more MOE! The majority of fighting game female characters either stay their age (Nina Williams, Nakaruru, ANY KOF female), or are never shown in any canon game that takes place years down the line, again. The only exceptions seem to be heroine characters (Charlotte and Chun-Li).

This is a valid point. I'm gonna stab in the dark and say she's either dead or she'll still look 20 and hot when Shiki comes around. Btw, Champuru...that was the name of that one Samurai anime right? Samurai Champuru?! Now we know the truth.

First, this game isn't SNK call so please drop any "SNK kills girls with mythical rituals" babbling for now, and second namco games as the worst example of age in any game, just look at Tekken 4, characters that are supposed to be 50s look young and neat (Lee, Lei, Law), only in their portrait's we can see 'some' of the effects of time, but they still look at they 30s at least, and let us not recall the time where Namco couldn't put that much detail in the pixels, every one looked like 18 years old punks, even heihachi XD.

Mythical wha...? I was talking about how many (but not all) SNK series usually kills lots of characters in general compared to other fighting game series, not just girls. And what are you talking about this mythical ritual babble? Really, I'm sure not ALL females who've died in SNK or SNK-affiliated games were "mythical ritual" girls. There's Vice, Mature, Shermie, Yuki, Basura's girlfriend, Mizuki, Maki, Chizuru(?), Mina... holy crap, you know, I've never noticed that mythical ritual female killing, before O_o ...ah ha! There's Foxy! ...though I guess going by that SS0 isn't SNK logic, that Foxy is Eolith and not SNK, huh? Hrm... And the only Street Fighter female to die is Rose. Hmm. Must be one of those anime laws or something.

That's telling 'em Galford. It seems that Galford and Captain Gordon from Disgaea went to the same school for overly dramatic heroics.

I'm not sure if I would take the idea of Mina getting killed/killing herself or whatever is supposed to be happening there as gospel truth since at the end of this game Galford is last seen floating to the top of the screen yet he still managed to return for the games that take place later in the series.
