One-Sided Beatings: Kokoro vs Momiji

Kokoro (Casual Clothes) vs Momiji (Casual Clothes)

Get Ready... Fight!

What a strong start from Kokoro, Momiji was swept right off her feet!

Momiji looks a little dazed from that, but she won't be beaten that quickly.

Momiji tries going on the offensive, but Kokoro is ready for her.

Hard chop to the spine for the kunoichi and no balance to keep herself upright, either!

Kokoro just dumped her opponent to the ground like a sack of potatoes, but Momiji doesn't appear to be down.

She's getting back up, Momiji is still in this fight, but--

--with such quick movements from Kokoro, Momiji has no time to recover.

This could be dangerous! Kokoro is throwing Momiji right into the stone pathway!

Face-first into the dirt!

Momiji's head narrowly missed the pavement. What a lucky break!

Momiji recovers, but Kokoro is moving in for a rear grapple!

What's this? It looks like Kokoro has something on her mind besides violence.

Momiji appears to be resisting. Can she free herself...?

Kokoro sure isn't taking the rejection well! Hard shoulder strike to the lower back!

No avoiding the stone path this time, Momiji will be feeling that for a while!

Momiji's valiant attempts to fight back continue, but she's slowing down big time.

A single uppercut is all it takes to completely halt her advance.

Kokoro looks a bit wary, and she should be. Momiji hasn't quite given up in spite of her blurred vision and dulled senses.

She's getting back up! Her spirit is commendable!

But Kokoro is looking to end this with a hard punch to the midriff.

Followed by a kick to the head to break through Momiji's weakening defenses...

What a destructive kick straight to the face!

Momiji is reeling! Is she even awake at this point?!

Kokoro sets up one last hit...

What a powerful blow to the sternum! Momiji is down!

The wind's been knocked clean out of Momiji, she just doesn't have anything left to give.

Kokoro looms over her victim... Conscious or no, Momiji is in for a rough ride...!

Phase 4's Wet Bikini Shoot

And the photo shoot begins!

So... This was a rather bizarre photo shoot.

Phase 4, as she calls herself, seemed very uninterested in taking part in this. She ignored me through most of it, in fact.

She seemed ever-alert, looking for someone wherever she went as she walked about the island's beach.

I asked if she knew Kasumi, considering the similarity, to which she replied that I not get involved. But... With what?

I decided not to ask her measurements, as I figure her body shape appears identical to Kasumi's. Eerie.

Eventually she mentioned a tournament as a place where fighters gather, and I informed her of an upcoming tourney.

We walked along the beach as I listed off some competitors, only getting a reaction when mentioning Ayane and Kasumi.

She seemed rather hesitant after that. I guess she's been looking for Kasumi after all.

She stopped to think, and verbally acknowledged something I didn't quite catch.

She suddenly felt the need to thank me, and since she had some time to spare, she inquired if I needed anything further for the shoot.

I replied with the suggestion of some shots of her lying down in the sand, and before I knew it she was downed. Obedient in the face of orders, perhaps?

I'll admit, it was pretty awkward by that point, so I decided to just end the shoot there.

As I wrapped up the shoot, she suddenly bolted. She must be on her way to the tournament...?

With that, the photo shoot ends. See you next time! ... ...Strange woman.

Kasumi's Wet Bikini Shoot

And the photo shoot begins!

I was kind of surprised how easygoing Kasumi was about a photo shoot... But I imagine she does them all the time.

There is something remarkably graceful about her, I can't quite put my finger on it. It was quite a charming experience.

Kasumi practices her own style of ninjutsu, called the Tenjinmon Style. It really is a pretty impressive art to witness.

Kasumi spent much of her career being hunted by her own clan, it would seem. A quest of vengeance guided her hand.

From what I gather, something sinister transpired, and her brother was the victim. A rather sad tale, and lonely.

But she never wavered, and she ended up not only saving her brother, but bringing down the evil DOATEC in the process.

As a requirement for the photo shoot, Kasumi informed me of her measurements. B35", W21", H33".

Kasumi's personality seems to be one of acceptance, of gentle kindness towards all around her.

She has even managed to win over her angry younger half-sister, Ayane, and the two of them get along well.

She hopes to ally with Ayane in an upcoming tag tourney and show off the full power of Mugen Tenshin.

She admits she rather enjoyed the brief vacations on Zack Island, and would like to play volleyball again one day.

But as for the tournament, Kasumi has been prepared through rigorous training under the legendary Ryu Hayabusa.

She admits she has made plenty of mistakes, but Kasumi hopes to learn from them, and prevent future tragedy in any way possible.

With that, the photo shoot ends. See you next time!
