I'm guessing Impa will focus more on super large weapons and brute force while Sheik will focus on more nimble (Team) Ninja action

I think it was neat in the new Link trailer how he pulls up a wedge of rock shaped just like the ones in OoT that required the Gold Gauntlets.

Sooooo…. 2 Guys, 8 Girls?.... Wow lol... Sorry boys, YOU guys are the ones getting underrepresented this time lol.
Could this be Tecmo Koei shooting out an underhanded jab at Ubisoft's "Can't include women cuz they're too hard to code" fiasco or something? lol

Nah. Koei just knows the female characters sell more merchandise. They've skewed towards new female characters far more heavily in the Dynasty and Samurai franchises for quite a while now, even when it involves basically making up historical figures that didn't exist, rather than using characters from the books that would make more sense.
Also, I get the impression Link is going to singlehandedly have like 8 play style variants. And the whole roster isn't revealed yet.
-
I'm just happy we have 10 characters now when before i thought the max would be 9. Means the groose may still be loose. Also with how frequently characters are being revealed how many more will we get? Seems like only last week fi was revealed

Not to dismiss the Musou franchise or anything but I don't anyone will really care about this in relation to the Unity controversy not to mention the fact that currently the only thing people see to care about where this game is concerned is the amount of Twilight Princess fanservice.

But in the demo there was 9 slots for characters and we now have 10

heres an image of ruto, and you can slightly see darunia
-
I wanted Mikau.:getlost:
-
Ruto was far more likely just like darunia was more likely than darmani. I want to know what level that is? Zora's domain maybe
-
Still Mikau killing people with guitar riffs would be epic.

Darunia uses a hammer? That's pretty badass. Sheik using a harp, though…I guess I'll have to see it first, but that seems like it should be an additional "weapon" for her, not her main one, but whatever. Ruto uses a Magic Shellfish? ...Ok, sure. Again, I'll have to see how that's handled, but it seems a little random, especially since we've seen how Zoras can fight from MM. I was also kind of hoping for Mikau instead (as Foolio said, him fighting with a guitar would've been awesome), but at least we have a Zora character. That makes me happy.
Impa using a Naginata doesn't rule out Nabooru necessarily, though - many Gerudos used twin scimitars to fight, so they could still do something with that. Not sure how likely she is to be in regardless, but there's still some hope. Lana using a Deku staff is kind of annoying, though - so we don't get a Deku character (most likely), but we get this random made-up character who uses Deku abilities? Weak. Actually, Lana in general kind of annoys me - aside from her moveset (which does look kind of fun), she just seems kind of generic and unneeded. Oh well, I guess I can't complain too much.
Are they really just limiting themselves to TP, SS, and OoT, though? If so, that's a shame - I would've loved to see other Zelda games get some representation as well, though I suppose MM isn't completely out of the question, as you said, but it seems doubtful if that statement is true.
Thanks to PirateNeko for the avatar!

It makes sense, especially for the first game. 3 of the 4 main 3d zelda games (WW is a bit hard because of the art style).
Nabooru could easily use twin Schmitars, heck i thought it was her main weapon. When has she used a Naginata?
I wasn't all for a deku character although i would like saria and she can use the slingshot and forest powers. I figured darunia's 1st weapon would be his fists but i guess not. Maybe it's his 2nd weapon then. Also don't we already have faron woods from SS? Or is this the TP version? Seems weird that it's in the scan seeing as everything else is OoT related. Are you sure it's not the lost woods?
I guess Lana is the character they give all the Misc weapons too.
-
Full scans
As expected, Link and Zelda get their OOT costumes. Obviously the 2 Force costumes will be the OOT and TP ones for Ganondorf.
The new weapons and characters look great.
The roster is fine for a first iteration (even more if some bosses are playable). -
here we go and yeah it's lost woods not faron woods
EDIT: Ninja'd
-
…Is that Lana riding on the Deku Tree Sprout?
Ok, I admit that's pretty cool.
-

I'm actually pretty happy with the roster overall, even if what we have now is the entire thing (though Ganondorf is a guarantee). Tingle and Groose would be icing on the cake, but I can live with what we have now. I'm mostly just not sold on Lana.
-
So, the only thing representing Majora's Mask (so far) will be the moon? That sucks. I mean, I like Ruto, but Mikau should've been a lock for the Zora representative. As for Darunia vs. Darmani… they were both warriors, so both of them had a chance to make it in, but I was hoping more for Darmani. Maybe next game...
-
They're obviously saving up the real meaty playable male characters for later.
Groose, hero of Grooseland
and the only other playable male character in the series, Kafei. -
i was really hoping for kafei as well for that reason. i wouldn't have minded ashei either
-
Kafei and his incredible ability to… not remove the age curse, marry underage, and activate switches.
No thanks.

Hey, they made Agatha work. You never know.
Though Kafei seems pretty doubtful to me.

Nonsense, you know they'll put Malon in instead of Talon, only she'll ride a horse and her Bowser brooch will breathe fire at unsuspecting moblins.
-
Or they could go with Marin and have her fight with the various music instruments from the series. If, you know, Sheik and Zelda weren't fighting with two of them…

Then she'll walk around in a stupor after all the enemies have been abducted, because she was actually trying to prevent that from happening.
-

No thanks.
In terms of serious ideas, they could give him some mask related abilities.
In terms of not-so-serious ideas, what problem do you have with activating switches, solving puzzles without a sword, getting into Ikana Valley without Epona or any other potential prerequisites, and be a kid forever???
-
Kafei will transform into Keaton and ask the moblins and other enemies a bunch of Zelda trivia, then kill them whenever they answer a question incorrectly.
-
Kafei's special will involve stepping on a switch and opening a door, which causes the sun mask to drop down and crush the entire enemy field
-
Marin I'd like, she fights with the instruments of the sirens, and summons the Wind Fish, and traps the enemies in Kokolith island (Spoilers).
But zelda with the Wind Waker took most of what her (and Saria) could do.

Saria could just manipulate plants.
She is the Forest Sage, after all.

Boomerang
-You can obtain the boomerang from a treasure chest and use it as an item
-If the boomerang hits an enemy, it will make it stand still for a short amount of time
-You may also acquire strengthening item which transform the boomerang into the Gale Boomerang
-Gale Boomerang springs forth a tornado which will make enemies float
-If enemies are hit when they are midair they will take more damage than usual Skulltulas
-There are 100 Gold Skulltulas in the world – One will appear as an enemy if certain special conditions are met if you slay one, you will get an illustration piece – You can find information about Skulltulas in the stage select screen – You will know that a Skulltula has appeared from a spider web like marker on the map which also pins down the location then you have limited time to find and slay it. If you are nearby, you will hear a rustling sound – In the picture, one of the Skulltulas is under some large boulder so bombs are needed to uncover it
-Skulltula appearance is related to used weapon/character, at least in some cases
Weapon bags
-You can pick weapon bags from slayed enemies–
-Obtained weapons are random and you won’t know how good the weapon is until you clear the stage
You can also find “sealed weapons” from treasure boxes – These increase the amount of types of weapons that a character can use
Weapon information screen-Empty slot. You can fill these in the junk shop. At maximum you may have 8 skills.
-Sealed skill. Needs to fill requirements to unlock. In the picture, you need to kill 3000 enemies
-Skill (in picture “rupee increase”).
Attack power
-Attribute. There are fire, water, lightning, light and darkness. If you use attribute that enemy is weak for, the damage will increase.
-Rarity of the weapon. More stars means rarer
-Weapon name; in the picture it is a variation of Biggoron’s Sword
More details on weapons/shopping
-Junk shop is part of the shopmall
-In junk shop you can compose stronger weapons by switching skills
-Ex: swap a skill from a powerful weapon into your favorite weapon
-There are limits on how many skills of a same skill group you can have in one weapon at once – It seems that the weapon from which the skill is swapped from will turn into materials and so it is lost.
Bunch of details about Hyrule Warriors.
Love that the Skulltula were included as collectables
-
trailer for the new characters and others.
I love that last part Cucco portal of death lol
-
HD trailer. Interested on what that NES zelda part is. NES musuo please
-
I don't get what's up with Lana. She seems like a ditzy JPop idol.

She's the obligatory moe genki character.
I guess she exists to appeal to Japan.
Meanwhile I'm angry that she gets a weapon that would be perfect for Saria. But whatever.
-
I like her. Especially the way she hums the theme song of Zelda.
But the one who impressed me the most in that trailer is Valga. I hope he's playable. -
Especially the way she hums the theme song of Zelda.
That actually annoyed me the most. She's some random made up moe thing, and she's humming the theme song. Why couldn't they just put in an actual Zelda character doing the same thing? Seriously, there's no lack of them. Even narrowed down to pretty-faced NPC girl.

My guess is that the musou team wanted to make somewhat of a "coherent story" with this game (after all, they did introduce new villains for an overarching plot) and Lana is an important element to that wonky story they had in mind. And…they are probably not creative enough to fit a recognizable Zelda character that could fit that role so they made up a new one.
or...maybe they REALLY wanted a moe character (even more so than bug fetish girl) and they didn't want to piss of fans by taking someone like Saria and MOE-fying her to the max. shrug
-
It's probably both. I'm fine with Lana as long as she is the only oc (not including villains) although I am slightly annoyed now that it has been brought up that saria could have used the deku stick. I hope it doesn't affect her chances if a sequel arises
-
Found some darunia gameplay from IGN at comicon
Some Ruto gameplay as well (quality isnt very good though)
–-
I really hope those villains in the trailer are playable, it feels odd that they are front in center yet we know nothing of their playable status. -
Here's hoping for Fierce Deity Link being a secret op character. Or at least Skull Kid.
