This is fantastic ending, music, atmosphere and emotion, new DOA's can't compare. Now Ayane is reduced to minor character and Hayate's sidekick. They need to make her important and badass again.
I love the native chanting in the background it makes this a spiritual ending, ayanes saying goodbye to the man she looked up and raised her fire is the symbol of his spirit being purified and moving into the afterlife…
Dead or Alive 3 is now available to download from Xbox Live, and the game is now backwards compatible with the Xbox One and Series X. I strongly recommend downloading either the European or Japanese versions of Dead or Alive 3 from Xbox Live since they feature better gameplay, more content, and more attacks for characters. To download them, purchase the game first, then change the region in the Xbox settings to either United Kingdom or Japan before downloading. Also, the physical versions are compatible with the American Xbox One and Series X.
Back when Hitomi didn't look like a weirdo with that nasty round cutesy face and stupid looking hair. The DOA series has made everyone except her look 10x better
This ending and the DOA Ultimate intro solidify Ayane as a more dark and serious character, which makes her appearances in Ninja Gaiden fitting while not so fitting in Senran Kagura.
