I have to say Nu Wa is the best looking female character i'v seen so far that Koei has made. I like her attack moves also they are fast so i can kill officers quickly.

I was raised around all sorts of Chinese legends, so Nu Wa was pretty much the most well-known goddess to me. In case you guys didn't know, she has an interesting legend to her!

The legend says that she appeared not long after the world was created. She was curious about the young earth, and she explored its mountains, rivers and plains. But soon she felt that the world was missing something, and she decided to create new living beings to keep her company. So she created the humans, moulding them out of yellow river clay and breathing life into them. She introduced the whole idea of living together and marriage, dividing the new race into males and females so they would not die out. So, basically, Nu Wa is a deity who is the mother of humanity.
But she is also a heroine as well! The legend states that, one day, the god of water, Gong Gong, and the god of fire, Zhu Rong (not to be confused with the Nanman warrior woman we know) got into a huge fight. The land was ravaged with giant floods and wildfires, and in the end, Gong Gong lost the duel. Angry, he rammed his head into a mountain--but the mountain was Mount BuZhou, the very pillar that held up the sky! As a result, a great hole appeared in the sky and it began to sag, threatening to destroy the world and everything in it. But Nu Wa came to the rescue. She quickly picked up rocks from a riverbed, burned them until they glowed in five different colors, and used them to clog the hole and fix the sky. Then, she caught a colossal sea turtle, cutting off its four legs to use as the new pillars that would hold the heavens up(Poor turtle).
Now, the ending of this myth varies in different versions. Some say Nu Wa died from her efforts, others say she mysteriously dissappeared. But now she reappears as the most beautiful female warrior in the entire KOEI cast :wub: ! She looks like an angel from heaven, ready to save us from possible death, and her outfit shows a lot of yinyang symbols, just like Fu Xi and Taigong Wang. Her partnership with Cao Cao surprised me, and when I watched the WO2 trailer, there was a scene where I went "NOOOOO! Don't kiss!!!!" :OMG: To my relief, it wasn't a kiss-scene. Phew.
Although she only ever appeared in various WOZ/WO2: PSP dream stages and Wei-1 and 8, she talked alot in the dialogues before and after battles. She remarks a lot about Cao Cao and how he could be dangerous. But, overall, I think KOEI should've made her appear in more stages.
Her moveset, I agree, is uber fast. I sometimes find myself unable to control her properly. but her R1 is certainly damaging. I have yet to see how her ice rain turns her foes into midgets, though.
Personality-wise, she's cold like her R1, alluring and deadly. After all, she is a goddess, so it's natural for her to have a commanding nature.
Overall, Nu Wa is a great character, heroic creator-deity, and, of course, a beauty queen!

I LOVE Nu Wa! Her design, personality and voice-acting is PERFECT!!!!!!!!! The only problem is her moveset, which is hard to control, but once you get the hang of it, you get the hang of it.

In DW3, she was just....there. But in WO2, I liked her a lot! She was so powerful especially in versus mode! Then she teamed with my favorite force too!! :D Got good taste.

I find something weird about her

She wears suggestive clothing and she's like "You will not even touch me"

Oh God, I love her in WO3. I already liked her in WO2/WOZ, but my love for her grew up in this game. Seriously, she's a complete beast! Her moveset are the same as in DW3 (to tell you how this game is very old ~), and yet they seem better than some of the DW7 moveset. >w> If she's equipped with the following skills, she's downright invincible;

- Osmosis +10
- Agility +10
- Wind +10
- Slay +10
- Typhoon (Gold skill)
- Brillance (Gold skill)
- Verity (Gold skill)
- Echo (Gold skill)

Nuwa, you really are a true Goddess. :heart:

Nuwa is by far my favorite WO character. Shes gorgeous, and her moveset is awesome. To be fair to the above poster, anyone can own with that setup :lol: but Nuwas actual true maximization doesn't involve brilliance. Try her out with Power+Efficacy, Lions Fang w/ filler, and slay/bolt/wind/absorption/osmosis/destruction/verity/courage. Her musou is 5 hit elemental. She'll one musou most things, and 2 musou the rest. Shes one of the best characters in WO3

I liked her in WO2. Unique character who takes some time to get used to. I was sad they didn't reference her DW costume. loved her english voice though.

Her english voice is great. She needs to wear clothes that arent scantily-clad though, it ruins her character when her breasts are in the way all the time. I mean she's an immortal but she wears only a bra for her top?!

She's good looking but KOEI really ramped up the sexiness for horny teens I guess. No offense but it seemed out of place to me.

That's how they wanted her to be, so nothing wrong with that. Nuwa's one of those pretty/hot women with a cold personality. She's like that in all of her costumes after all (apart DW3, but it's like a different character anyway, so it doesn't count), and it's always this kind of clothes that she should wear, because it suits her very well. So gorgeous in her awakened form. :heart:

Nuwa is a beautiful goddess\Fighter and her costume design is very sexy.
The movelist on her is excellent in WO3 I never lost one battle with her and never had to tag anyone else in. Her S string is great and mix her special attack with the air charge and back to her special attack is her infinite attack. She's hot and I like the way koei made some changes.

At level 99 she considered one of the best women fighters in the game. Whoever hasn't try her should. :)

Personally, I really love Nu Wa in general. The only thing That's a set off in my WO3 team is that she's slower than my other two, but that's understandable because 1) she's a power character and 2) my other two are speed characters (Wang Yi and Ayane). It's just me though, because I personally find speed to be essential to mobility. But I really love Nu Wa's personality, power, and character design. So my final verdict is that she's one of my favorite females.

game wise, she originated from DW3, she is now a WO regular(although once she returned to DW, for the short lived strikeforce series)

for people who are reading fujiryuu's Houshin Engi manga:

Koei Wiki says Michelle Ruff voices Nuwa in WO2. But.. I dunno. I can't hear Ruff's performance in that voice. Anyone have a confirmation or a guess of who might her voice actress be?

It's Michelle Ruff. She also voiced DW4-5 Zhenji and Sun Shangxiang.

She does have a varied and wide vocal range. Chi from Chobits and Euphemia Li Britannia from Code Geass are two other characters she voiced as well alongside Rukia Kuchiki.

None of those voices resemble Nuwa's though. The only deep voice I've heard from her are Zhenji's, and even that doesn't sound too different to SSX's and doesn't have the same feel as Nuwa's.

I dunno. I even hear a little Tara Platt in Nuwa's voice, probably because of its "gentleness" but I don't think she's her voice actress. Just asking because I'm very curious about it. :P

I just... don't like her. Honestly I'm not a big fan of Fu XI either. But actually I don't remember what her moveset was like anyway, probably should play a battle with her in case I go back to play WO3U one day again.

She had an interesting design about her, I'll have to say. I couldn't get the hang of playing as her, as the button inputs for her combination attacks were a little too fast for my poor reflexes.

WO2 Nuwa was debeste, the Midget Bringer R1 was so hilarious

what's with her WO3 Musou? i thought the DW5-ers(Fu Xi, Nu Wa, Zuo Ci) got nerfed since it's just their regular DW5 style Musou, but now shorter
