[edit] Tier
I don't really think she can be considered a mid tier character at all given that even people that don't know her combos can go up against someone like Abyss and only get hit once or twice. She's definitely a very high upper tier character, if not a broken tier. I've fought her with nearly all of the characters in the game and no matter who I select, I find her to be a borderline broken tier character.
The facts are: Her attack power is very high considering her speed, she's very fast, rather, incredibly fast, has almost no attack delay, and with the right combos, can almost infinitely juggle her opponents. --JBladen 11:47, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
- Abyss is a lower-mid tier character, so that example does not add up to much. She is not all that powerful, and once her VC throw was removed from the PAL/NTSC-J/AC versions her ranking dropped a tier, as her options were far more limited. She is not as fast as the likes of Taki (I believe her fastest attack is only i11), and is not as versatile as a Xianghua. If you had used her to successfully slaughter high-tier players, your arguments might hold water, but she is generally agreed to be a mid-tier character. Elric of Grans 22:56, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
I find her the hardest character to beat. I have the PAL version. - The 4th Snake
She definately is broken tier. The only thing preventing me from unlocking Nightmare's The Ancient Weapon is her!!! She has beaten me around 40 times now.
In case you forgot, all of these characters are pretty much subjective. You could take your weakest character, spend a day memorizing all their moves until you go through them in your sleep, and beat every opponent on the Extremely Hard setting. Personally, I hate the sword n' shield sisters, but officially they're in the top 5. And I also have fun playing with Lizardman, who officially sucks. So due to the fact that any of these rankings are subjective and point of view, no one will change her ranking until its "officially" confirmed she's a broken tier.
I've gone against Setsuka with my best characters and can't beat her to the point I give up. I now avoid her. Not to mention when i'm setsuka I can easily slaughter characters like Ivy and Mitsurugi. Setsuka13 22:41, 11 February 2007 (UTC)setsuka13

Iaito hidden inside the handle of a parasol.
I would edit this myself but for some reason logged in or not i am blocked by some strange looking fat american man whom i have never met neither angered... ¬_¬ grr
[edit] Image
I preferred Setsuka's previous profile picture to this one. This one is stylish, but the previous one was a prettier and more flattering image. JJ 80.41.14.187 23:27, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
Also, is her hair actually black, I mean it looks brown on the picture and the game. Does it say officialy, cause thats really interesting. Setsuka13 02:12, 15 February 2007 (UTC)setsuka13
[edit] Vandalism
All that extensive information regarding how Setsuka couldn't possibly be a Geisha or Oiran belongs on this page, not in the main article, and should be presented as a case to potentially make changes to the article. Personally I don't agree, as the game never claims to be historically accurate (after all, Sophitia and Cassandra still worship Hephaestus and the ancient gods when in fact 16th century Greeks would have been Christians for at least 1500 years already!) The game is fiction, and it's highly plausible the designers were inspired by Oiran and Geisha for Setsuka's look, and took poetic licence with the accuracy. Besides, the article doesn't say that Setsuka actually is a Geisha or Oiran, only that the designers had stated her look was inspired by the Oiran courtesans and The Queen of Hearts, and if the designers said that themselves then it is irrefutable. 80.41.21.11 02:50, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
Well I'm from Rome and have been to Greece many times and people still pray to shrines of Zeus, Hephaestus and others so it might happen, especially if you can hear the gods words like Cassandra and Sophitia.

[edit] Ehh?
Her Charcter Anlyis section REALLY needs some work. Its hard to under stand and it uses the word I, a big no-no. Lego3400: The Sage of Time 15:59, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
Agreed, all of these Character Analyses seem pretty much one person playing the game and deciding who they like better. I'm gonna fix that section now65.43.172.138
[edit] Deep Blue Eyes?
Last time I checked Setsuka had hazel brown eyes, as can be confirmed by viewing all the official artworks and in game model. I believe changing it to hazel brown is much more accurate. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 212.191.73.194 (talk) 11:01, 16 April 2007 (UTC).
- Very perceptive, but what this article does is detail the original biography released by Namco before the game's launch, in which they stated she has 'deep blue eyes', though I thought this article made the fact that they changed her eye colour to 'amber brown' perfectly clear? 80.47.50.84 15:11, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
I have question. Is Setsuka White, or is she Asian? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.69.146.168 (talk) 21:20, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] The New Setsuka
What are your thoughts on it? I think the new kimono is lovely, and they somehow made blonde work on her (she looked awful with blonde hair in SC3), but I think they went more than a little overboard with the breasts. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.17.119.172 (talk) 18:22, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
