Alright, who took out the picture? That was a correct picture, all the others have a SC IIV pic.

[edit] Incorrect Information

"When Tira is selected, during happy she will say, "Let's play" or when angry she will say, "I'll cut your heart out!"" It's really just minor, but all characters have two selection quotes depending on which costume they wear. Tira's P1 says "Let's Play!" while Tira's P2 says "I'll cut your heart out!". Color changes say what the costume they're based on says. For example, Setsuka's P1 says "Scatter and Die!" while her P2 says "Issen!" (If I recall correctly). Is everyone fine if I edit that in?

Also, to obtain Soul Edge, all you have to do is beat Abyss (in Tales of Souls mode) as she acquires Soul Edge there.[-Darren.Kalado]

[edit] Will she die?

In SC3's Tales of souls, it says Nightmare will kill Tira eventually. Do you think it will happen or she will escape and look for revenge? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.106.120.107 (talk) 15:49, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Someone keeps editing the information I edit in, despite it being wrong. Once again, Tira does not have two selection quotes because she is bipolar, EVERYONE does. Choose a character, then choose their alternate costume and see what I mean. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.236.70.22 (talk) 16:49, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Initial table broken

When editing the page the table of Tira's data displays her height and weight and the coding appears to be correct yet this data is not displayed n the article, could someone please rectify this? AiselneDrossel 10:31, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Irrelevant trivia fact?

"Consising of exactly 7 lines, Tira's "Character Analysis" section of this page is the shortest of any character in the series."

What an odd thing, especially since it could change at any moment if somebody adds more to that section.

[edit] Tira aiding Nightmare in SC 2?

In the opening movie of Soul Calibur II, you see lots of ravens, and they all seem to be searching for persons who have a shard of Soul Edge. One of the ravens even brings Nightmare a shard. I think those ravens are the ones that obey Tira.

It looks like the only reasonable explanation. Leemorrison 14:20, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

In that case Namco may have had plans for Tira long before III came out but just got around to her right now. It would make sense and the ravens were never explained in II either. Kou Nurasaka 02:19, 9 August 2007 (UTC

That's actually wrong. Read carefully Tira's profile: the first time she met Nightmare, he was already Soul Edge's will rather than Siegfried as in SCII. Also, she encountered Zasalamel the first time she tracked Nightmare, shortly after he reaminated Nightmare's armor. Tira never knew Nightmare while he was Siegfried, thus she couldn't be helping him at SCII.

Unless Namco states otherwise, any mention of Tira prior to SCIII is speculation, and not worth mentioning in articles. — Nahum Reduta [talk|contribs] 10:26, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Flaws within "Character Analysis"

The Character Analysis starts with a very confusing argument about what tier Tira belongs to. The analysis would benefit from a better description of her placement. Also, the analysis lack references to attacks and movements, compared to other analysises which take up stances and attacks, their effects etc. I suggest that her lack of stances is mentioned here. The analysis also contains no direct references, namely her infinite loop attack (I suppose it references to Canary Waltz C minor, E Major and Halcyon Rondo C minor and E Major...). I recommend that someone add pertinent details about her moves, for example the name "single ring-out move" (I consider her a queen in ring-out, since she has four excellent ring-out moves (Grove Disc, Glissando Claw, Rhythmic Hook and Tenuto Sweep) for earthbound opponents and many moves when the opponents are in the air). One last thing, "...and her acrobatic throws are nice to look at" - honestly! It feels just awkward to put those kind of comments in an analysis. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.183.140.154 (talk) 20:44, 5 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Bipolar Disorder?

In the opening section of the article it says that it is implied that Tira suffers from Bipolar Depression. Has this actually been confirmed or is this just speculation. In the later case its unlikely considering that BPD is a shift which occurs over 6 mounths rather than every other moment. --Bisected8 04:26, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Character Information Consistency

I noticed we have a rather interesting setup for Tira's "1: Character Information" section of her page. Do you think we should arrange the other Soulcalibur articles so that way the share the same format? - KeatontheBlackJackal (talk) 00:01, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Soul Edge or Soul Calibur version of her weapon

I heard that her Soul Edge or Soul Calibur (can't remember which it is) version of her weapon is an Ouroboros. Is that true? (Each character has a series of special weapons that can be unlocked in the game, the SE or SC of which is one of them.) 85.211.128.174 (talk) 23:06, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hair color and length

Ok, what happend to Tira's hair? First, it was green then now it's brown? It was also way shorter in SC3. Moogle 12 (talk) 12:50, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
