Wu-Ruixiang

Wu-Ruixiang (呉瑞香, Wú ruìxiāng) is a new character introduced in Samurai Shodown (2019). She is voiced by Seira Ryu.

Development
It was decided from the beginning of the development that the three new characters would follow the concept of a handsome warrior, a woman with great power, and Feng Shui. Director Nobuyuki Kuroki then asked character designer Yumi Saji to design the character first, and then later he'll begin to flesh out the various elements. Kuroki states that the team decided to include a gag called Megane (メガネ), which is actually inspired from a Scooby Doo character Velma Dinkley. They added a detail where she'll look her for glasses if you're disarmed.
