Sima Shi: I like the clothing.
Sima Zhao: I also like his clothing, although not quite as much as Sima Shi.
Bao Sanniang: Eh, I don't really like it.
Zhen Ji: I love her new attire, though I usually do.
Zhao Yun: I don't mind it, but I preferred his last appearance.
Lu Xhun: I don't like it. It's a bit odd to me, but I generally disliked his appearances.
Zhou Tai: I don't mind it, but don't really like it either. Better than what he had last game, I think.
Xiahou Dun: Love his appearance, although I preferred the hair he had in the sixth game, but I actually like this new hair as well.
Xiahou Yuan: Do not mind it.
Cao Cao: I don't mind it.
Cai Wenji: It's alright.
Da Qiao: Very cute, generally not my type of character though, but still cute.
Ling Tong: It's alright.
Lu Meng: I love this appearance, and I usually don't play as Lu Meng, but I'll have to give him a definite chance this time around.
Xing Cai: I like it, but nothing overly special for me.
Ma Chao: I love this attire, and he's beginning to get a Lu Bu style about him with the helm.
Wang Yuanji: I don't hate it, nor love it, but it's alright.
Sima Dan: I really like it.
Jiang Wei: It's good.
Ma Dai: I don't mind it, the hat is a bit odd, but...a good odd.
Sima Yi: It's very... bright. I don't like it.
Deng Ai: It's not bad.
Zong Hui: I don't really like it at all. Especially the hair.
Guo Huai: He is one creepy looking guy, but I'm not fan of the clothing.
Cao Ren: He seems to have grown, and stolen the massive armour from one of my CAWs in DW6. But I like it.
Ding Feng: Pretty cool clothing, I like that his pants almost look like chaps.
Sun Ce: I really like his appearance. Roman-looking.
Zhou Yu: I like it, but there's just something off about it, that I can't pinpoint.
Huang Zhong: I also like his appearance, but then, I usually do.
Zhu Rong: One of my favourite characters, and I'm happy that she looks awesome.
Meng Huop: I don't mind it.

Up to now I like most of the character designs. Out of the new characters I like Sima Shi´s outfit the most. Ding Feng looks kinda meh. But with his personality he might be hillarious.

So far, I'm pleased with the new characters and I'll admit that some of the characters look better in the screenshots than the CGs like Bao Sanniang and Sima Zhao for example. I'm wondering what Xiahou Ba will look like if he'll be revealed

link to Xiahou Ba.

Really like the armor, despite the european look to it and not a big fan of his face, but if he wears that helmet, I'll be fine with him.

Xiahou Ba finally! Well he certainly looks good in my opinion apart the armor does look European but I'm fine with that. His helmet looks good too. I still can't believe they put him with Jin :kurokan:

Ow My, forget to give some thought on later Character appearance

Sun Ce:Love his design, really love it, the one thing that bother me is just his nose, what happen with him? but nvm, i still love it, the hottest male in Wu.

Zhou Yu:hmm,,, not bad, but not good either, love his DW 6 design more

Zhu Rong:Ow my god Beyonce is her incarnation, very hot and sexy, i think she look better with her blonde hair than her platinum white hair..

Xiahou Ba:Zhu Rong is Beyonce, and Xiahou Ba is Justin Bieber -_-"

I like the armour of Xiahou Ba and the helmet, they are detailed, shiny and quite handsome to look upon. A fan of the blue cloth where the armour doesn't cover, the gauntlets and particularly the details on the legs. Would have liked a bit of green somewhere but the face seems wrong for the body, it just looks off to me.

It's his head that looks small compared to the armor or conversely, the armor looks too big compared to his head. I think this says that once he puts his helmet, the report should be much better.

At first I wasn't really liking SSX's new design due to a number of reasons, but the more I look at it, the more it seems like a throwback to her DW3 one, which actually suited her.

I think I'm alright with it now.

Okay, new batch......

Jia Xu - Definitely not how I pictured him but I'll take it. Certainly not one of the worst designs we've seen; it'll just take me a bit of time to get accustomed to him. Honestly I never really thought about purple for his colour but it does make sense. Don't think the weapon is quite the right fit but it certainly won't stop me from playing as him.

Sun Shang Xiang - I'm extremely glad she doesn't look like some tart from Tecmo's collection. She has an all around appealing design. Definitely has the tomboy look back, which I think is great.

Taishi Ci - Superb; he is the only character I can think of who actually suits the massive shoulder guards Koei seem to be overusing in DW7. Not quite sure what to make of the centurion headdress; I'll wait for a more clearer picture before I pass judgement, but for now it looks fine and dandy. When looking at Taishi Ci I can't help but think this is how Cao Ren should look. Hooray for the twin rods.

Dian Wei - Never been one of my favourites so I haven't much to say other than he looks a lot like he used to which is fine by me. Hopefully he inspires me a bit more than he used to.

Zhang Liao - Absolutely fantastic; if I had one complaint it would be that the blue in his armour is a bit too monotone, but that's also one reason why I like it so much, which is very strange. Also sad to hear that his Wyvern from pre-DW6 is gone.

Yue Ying - Would have liked a bit more colour variation, and the Tecmo influence is sadly quite apparent with her exposed midriff, but apart from that her appearance is fine. Actually quite intrigued that she has received the Bo staff; I'll be quite excited to see how it plays.

Yuan Shao - Tricky one; would have liked a bit more general than ruler, but his design is fine as well. Rapier sounds like an interesting weapon for him.

Zhang Jiao - Eh, don't really like it. His head is painfully too small for his body, and his clothes don't say religious sect leader to me. Very forgettable.

Overall I'm very pleased with this batch.

Jia Xu - The actual look is good but it just doesn't fit someone who was known for brilliance, he looks like some kind of Arabian assassin. I do like it but it doesn't suit him.

Sun Shang Xiang - I'm liking this one quite a lot. It's simple but that's what I like about it, I can't really tell but I hope she has her chakrams. Also hope she doesn't have a little girly voice.

Taishius Cii Taishi Ci - Haha I like his outfit, the big armour suits him and the helmet looks great. Considering this game already has cannons I can look past the helmet's origins and just laugh and be glad one of my favourite characters looks good. Also it's great to see his rods. Now I'm just waiting to see if KOEI screws up his voice again.

Yuan Shao - I'm glad they went with his DW6 style, the only thing I didn't like about that one was his face, but they seem to have fixed that. Again I need to hear his voice before I can say how much I like him overall, DW6 was too generic sounding.

Zhang Liao - Simple but nice, Zhang Liao never really stood out to me in design, but this one looks alright.

Dian Wei - Looks like a fusion between DW5 and 6, so yeh good. Also good to see the axe back. Anyone notice he's holding it in his left hand? Or is that an animation from an attack?

Zhang Jiao - I actually like it, he's Zhang Jiao, he's supossed to look funny. Atleast now he doesn't have that weird frill around his neck. Also is this the first non-hunched over Zhnag Jiao? Kinda gives the illusion he's a big strong guy, atleast in the scans.

Yue Ying - .......no, I'm not going to comment.

Jia Xu: I can not find he especially makes strategist with his look. That said, I like it anyway and I find that to change. He reminds me of an Arabian or a character from Prince of Persia.

Sun Shang Xiang: THANK YOU! She has more the look she wears in Dynasty Warriors 6! Her new look makes me think its a mixture of old styles (I do not count the fairy look) and I think she is both woman and warrior.

Taishi Ci: Simply the best of his looks, I think.

Yuan Shao: His look seems equally "Noble" than he looks in Dynasty Warriors 6. I'm glad he keeps the same face, I much prefer the latter to the former.

Zhang Liao: I think he is refined man, with his look, but that's maybe me. His look is good, but I do not know whether I prefer this one or that he wears in Dynasty Warriors 6.

Dian Wei: He no longer has his tattoo ... Well, in a sense, this is not a bad thing, it's true that one side was a little off. His look is good, it follows that of Dynasty Warriors 6.

Zhang Jiao: He reminds me Katsuie Shibata. Otherwise, it looks really good, much better than in Dynasty Warriors 6.

Yue Ying: Very good design! I am delighted that she has kept her long red hair.

Now that we have clearer scans to swoon over~

Jia Xu - Definitely looking forward to this guy. Love his somewhat rugged design.

Zhang Liao - Giant step up from DW6. Hated that stupid helmet, so glad he has an epic hat again! Rest of the outfit looks great as well. Still doesn't surpass DW5 for me, but a fantastic design overall.

Dian Wei - So glad he lost those facial tattoos.

Taishi Ci - No real comment as I never paid too too much attention to him, but I have no complaints about his appearance - he looks great.

Sun Shang Xiang - I know I keep fangirling over her, but I am just that incredibly excited! So glad she ditched the awful fairy look and I'm happy to see her chakrams return (though I did love the bow as well!) Love the asymmetrical theme going on with her clothing, her hair looks lovely as does her face. Winning design and possibly my favorite of DW7 thus far. Can't wait for a clear render of her. (I just hope they can get Michelle Ruff back as her VA now!)

Yue Ying - Mixed feelings. I actually do like the outfit with one large exception - the thing she has going on with the see-through shirt. If it was a solid black and not see through I think I would love it, but it just seems too out of character for Yue Ying and it's a bit uncomfortable. My other complaint is her hair style. It's... awkward. I think her design will end up growing on me more, just like her DW6 one did.

Yuan Shao - Looks noble, looks awesome. All of the gold in his outfit fits perfectly.

Zhang Jiao - Yikes. Just yikes. I'm not feelin' it too much at this point. He's a bit horrifying now instead of the seemingly frail but somewhat well-intentioned old man. Definitely will take some getting used to his new design.

Also, Xiahou Ba - I know people are not liking his face and I was frustrated with the pretty character designs, but I figure that I may as well try and get used to them for now. I actually do like his armor - it feels like it's mismatched with his baby face which makes for kind of a fun and cool character design.

[ *  *  * ]
On the latest lot

SSX: :O *long pause* DAMN. Best returning character I've seen.
DW4:Tomboy, DW5: Cute Tomboy, DW6: *Shudders hides in a corner and cries for two days then returns* We all have our dark days.
I don't care if she has her "Charkrams" or Bow, my tomboy SSX is back and looking better then ever.

Yue Ying: She looks like a nerdy girl you know is going to stab you in the back the moment you talk to her. Hopefully this doesn't come out thought her personality.

Yuan Shao: Not to extravagant but not too lacking. Koei finally got him right.

Zhang Jiao: Going from looking like a 'crazy hermit' to a hermit, nice. Just hope he still has his crazy hermit personality.

Taishi Ci: The only thing I'd change is his helmet. IT NEEDS TO GO!!!!!

Dian Wei: Not much to say here. He basically is the same as all Dian Wei's before him.

Zhang Liao: The first real screw-up Koei has made in terms of an overall look of a returning character IMO. Even Sima Yi doesn't look that bad compared to Zhang Liao

I pretty much like all of them so far but my favourites are:

Zhen Ji
Wang Yuan Ji
Sun Shang Xiang
Yue Ying
Zhu Rong
Xing Cai (wished she'd lose the brain slug though)
Sun Ce
Ma Dai
Deng AI
Sima Zhao

With the way these all look I'm as happy as a penguin in a microwave! :XD

Thanks to idealnite for the close up scans, thanks to all those who did the scans.

Jia Xu: Persian look strikes me as a bit weird but will get used to it in time. I like the little goatee and the hair, dislike fan of his hat or really dislike those flaring out trousers. Boots fine but love the top half of his body, the golden armour under the robe, the things on his arm and the lovely patterns on his robe.

Dian Wei: Thankful they didn't quite go for drawing thing they showed. Looks appropriately Dian Wei, bald, powerful, imposing, I can take or leave the shoulders but quite like the trousers/high boots combo with the patterns on the thigh guards. Or whatever they are called.

Zhang Liao: Blue rope around his waist seems a little too bright to go with the rest of the outfit and hate the shoulderpads. Otherwise he looks quite nice, hardly stand out but nice, love the boots and the detail on the side of his clothing.

Yue Ying:Not a fan of the hair, looks nice on the front with the two things coming down the side but the high point and the back are offputting. I like the costume, perhaps the exposed stomach is a little weird for her but the black covering mostly makes up for it. Meh about the boots but very happy with the rest of her outfit, necklace looks nice, I like the small jacket, the arms and the pattern on the white cloth.

Taischi CiLike Zhang Liao and Dian Wei, rarely someone I have much thought about of their appearance. Not a fan of the Roman helmet, replace that and his whole look would be fine, suitably armoured and powerful. Like the pattern on the leg guards.

SSX: I love the rose in her hair and thank she looks very pretty with the red/purple/gold mix. The dress looks lovely, only partly thanks to the golden flower patters, not a big fan of the red gloves or the shoes but overall, love it.

Yuan Shao: Get rid of the hat and the costume is good, looks suitably rich, impressive and noble, lots of lovely detail on the coat and the armour. Something about his face seems off to me, don't know it is the white strand or something else, maybe I'm just being weird.

Zhang Jiao: I like the bald and more serious look while the beard and beads still provide a hippy/mystic vibe. Some nice symbols, particularly on the bottom half of his robe, also on the sleeves, and I do think this is a serious upgrade to his look, now let's see if the personality gets similar treatment.

Here's my entire review:

Jia Xu: Amazing, defiantly not what I was expecting, although he looks better than I could imagine, and his weapon is completely unique!

Yue Ying: Wow..... Very strange to be honest.... I kinda wish they stayed with her semi-modest look in DW6 and gave her the scythe back, although who knows, maybe I'll like her...

Zhang Jiao: Umm..... O_o... He looks really fat and bald... Uuuh... Wowzers... he doesn't look like Jesus anymore Oh well, its good to have a change after a while.

Yuan Shao: NOOOO!!!! What did they do to my favorite Other character?!?!?!? D: D: D:!!!!...... Well... It's good they kept his character from DW6, although he just looks kinda weird now.. IDK... He looks like a guy that would own one of those circuses XD

Zhang Liao: Very cool! I like it! AND I'm VERY happy they kept his twin halberds... And you know what that means right?.... PANG DE WILL ALSO HAVE THEM!!!

Dian Wei: WOOHOO!!! Another great look!!! I love it! And is he holding a long axe? O.o

SSX: O_____O A-MA-ZING.... DEFIANTLY by FAR the best look she has EVER had, Koei... My hat's off to you for this one. Also I'm really happy her chakrams are back.

Taishi Ci: NICE! I love his look! I am very satisfied And he kept his traditional weapons. He will defiantly be one of my favorites for Wu.

Jia Xu: Very interesting. Before I saw him I heard he went Prince of Persia, and I wasn't sure what to expect. Not the look I imagined while reading the novel during Jia Xu parts, but it's a cool look, and the weapon will likely be awesome. Doesn't give me the strategist vibe at all, but we'll see. One of my favorite new characters, easily.

Yue Ying: Honestly, don't really care for her. In general. The weapon seems to be a bladed bo-staff, which is sweet, but the generic costume and the personality that never stood out to me means she'll likely stay at level one for a long time.

Zhang Jiao: I definately like the change. Looks a lot more like I would have imagined. Though I rarely play as him, killing him in the first level should be fun. Hopefully he still flails around in funny ways when hit.

Yuan Shao: I love it, because I hate Yuan Shao. He looks like such an ass, but also looks incredibly regal, so very fitting.

Zhang Liao: My favorite RoTK character, the savior of Wei and the winner of the most impressive victory in the 100 year history of the Three Kingdoms. Zhang Liao looks awesome. Wasn't the biggest fan of the dual halberds but honestly, his new look suits them quite well.

Dian Wei: Looks great. Never been a big fan but I might enjoy using him this time around, depending on his moveset.

SSX: My favorite female, she looks great. Very classy and sexy at the same time.

Taishi Ci: Absolutely epic. One of my favorite Wu characters, glad to see I won't have to be overcoming a lame design while playing him.

So far, my favorite characters are: Zhang Liao, Taishi Ci, Sun Ce, Zhao Yun, Xiahou Dun and Ma Chao.
