She looks really nice to use, her moveset with Range and Agility should be very efficient for crowd clearing. Imagine with Almighty. ![]() I do wonder whats her moveset, maybe we will get to see her gameplay soon. Glad to see more great characters on the game, i'm sure she will have a great role. |

Sanzang definitely looks cool design wise. I guess she'll be fighting on Orochi's side too. I think the idea of using her sleeves as a weapon is awesome. No doubt she'll have a dancer-like fighting style like Daji. Though, I think Sanzang will do it better

If you had paid attention to what other people have said in the main MOZ discussion, Sanzo is generally a female in older versions of Saiyuki(which is supposedly a common depiction of Sanzo in Japan.) Also, that's not what a transgender is. |

A boy to a girl is a transgender in my eyes. Anyway, off topic. I aint even looked ay any WOZ discussion so wouldn't know . I'm confused, so, basically, he's a male Chinese but a female Japanese? |

Well, there are a lot of transgender characters in Asian culture than, by those standards. I've seen female Tripitakas before and they're just as acceptable as a male one. Does gender really matter? (well, in romance it might because then are you watching regular pr0n or YAOI? XD) Honestly? I can't wait to see what this character is (male or female). Doesn't bother me in the least- just so long as it's not a running gag like with Ranmaru. Or is as eccentric as Zhang He... he's not gay. HE'S TERRIFYING! There is a difference. |

Ah, still, I'm a little disappointed that this character is slightly fictionalised from fiction, if you get me . Rather have a fictional than a fictional fictional .Gender don't metter, and overall this character looks like they will fight good an pretty unique so, yeah .

No, I mean that literally is not what a transgender is by dictionary definition. That would be transsexual. Transgender means the sex stays the same, but the gender qualities of said person are of that which are generally associated with the opposite sex. |

Either way I'd say transgender or transsexual is the wrong term here. It implies that the existing character made a change. It's not like the character in the game WILL HAVE BEEN a boy and become a girl. It's just taking the idea of the character, and making it a girl. No real 'change' for the character itself. Like other people said, he's accepted as a female personal around Japan, so don't let it worry you. ZOMG SLEEVES HOUSE OF FLYING DAGGERS FTW! |

Gender is pointless in regard to video games and anime. Sanzang's gender is not relevant to the story of Journey to the West, is it? Don't think so. (Granted there was a chapter that he and Pigsy got preggo, but we'll not talk about that )So, yeah... you go, Sanzang, and your androgynous self! |

Chen Hui (602? - 664) = Xuanzang (Chinese: 玄奘; pinyin: Xuán Zàng; wade-giles: Hsüan-tsang, pronounced Shwan-dzang) was a famous Chinese Buddhist monk.- " Hey KOEI ! Why did U converse my sex ? " * Sanzang (detail). Most of us think: this new character is Guan Yin Pu Ji, but final is Sanzang. KOEI punned WO_fan. I hoped she's Hui An monk (Heavenly bodyguard). I propose: we'll post a petition email for KOEI, Omega Force to depict about this famale character !

Mmmm. I love the Arabic belly dancer design they went with here, though still also having including some sort of oriental influence. She really resembles a Dynasty Warriors 6 Diao Chan, or at least to me. Can't wait to see her moveset(on YouTube, that is...). |

Hello Mr. person who doesn't read previous posts that would clarify stuff for him so he wouldn't look silly posting the same "omg Koei changed Sanzo's sex" crap again. |

As some members said in another topic, her design looks alike Yuna, maybe her personality too, if she is naive too ^^ By the way, her face reminds me also Gracia's face, her design is very beautiful ![]() Hope she'll have great moveset with her nice & original weapon ![]() Thanks for the links about the historic character everyone ^^ |

I think she looks closer to the Strikeforce design then the actual DW6 one. Mainly because of the pants/legs. And SSX is a lot more pixieish And that is a great render of her on that pic. Hopefully we can be provided with it soon. |

I think her design is great and I'd prefer her over Benkei. Unless Benkei gets an awesome English voice and personality that's. Also found it funny how it seems she comes down from heaven in the promo. Plus also, now if that's the opening, with both WO1 & 2 merged, perhaps we'll see Wukong and the others characters in it as well? That'll be cool. |
