Ciel Teased as the Next Rockman X DiVE Character



Teased today via a trailer, we have learned that Ciel will very likely be joining Rockman X DiVE next week in time for the 4th DiVE Festival event. This month's festival has yet to happen and with next week being the end of the month... well, it's a given.

Not only will Ciel be the first human character to appear in the game (even if the Deep Log characters are made of "data"), but this will also be the first time we'll get to see her enggage in combat!

What kind of skills do you think she will have? Let us know your ideas in the comments!

  1. Cyber Elves, ALL OF THEM. I'd literally call her "Debuff Master".
    Also, wasn't there an illustration out there of her holding a laser pistol out there (similar to Palette's)?

  3. I am really excited for this one she is one of my favorite main characters for the whole franchise

  4. With this pretty much confirming human characters are allowed to be playable, I hope if they ever add in Over-1 they'll include the Xover version of Kalinka, as I feel like it was a waste to just let the concept of an older Kalinka just die with that game.

  5. I didn't expect this, I also would wanted Harpuia first than her, though, but I guess I'm fine with this.

    1. Same here, but thinking about it, it makes sense to start with the "Rockman" and the "Roll" of the serie before the rivals. (Same as rock, roll and Protoman being added, but not Bass yet)
      Leviathan diving in before Ciel was probably just because she is so popular.

  6. Alright the waifu pandering is bordering on creeper now.

    1. Oh, come on...Sure it's another cute girl, but it's a regular character from the gamed this time.

    2. "Its creepy because I don't like it"

    3. Well, outside of pedo stuff I like waifu pandering to a degree, so... I'm just calling it how I see it. Sorry, making a game about battle robots only to have it filled with majority "females" that are then pimped out with highly sexualized bikinis and costumes complete with panty shots, boob jiggle physics so absurd the actual character reacts to it in embarrassment, thongs that completely expose ass shots etc etc... Yeah I'm going to go out on a limb and say this is creeper material. Oh did I mention some of this applies to the underaged-like of which this newest character on topic is as well? Yeah... And before you start with the "they didn't pimp out Ciel with creeper dressup material it's just Ciel" yeah we'll see about that one.

      It really makes sense to make Ciel playable because everyone knows Ciel as that badass fighting warrior of a scientist, no ulterior motive at all, sure... Its why they made Dr. Light playable, oh wait...

  7. I would have not expected another Mega Man Zero character so soon.
    Not complaining, though.

    1. It's probably easier to do the various characters from one serie.
      For exemple, they can get the references for the 3d models at once.

  8. Well, she was planned to be playable in MMZ1, using Cyber-elves like a magician while Zero was like a knight. I have no idea what her skills will be in DiVE, but Passy is likely to appear as one of her skills or in her introduction.

    1. Oh right, she was initially a cyborg as well.

  9. I'm going to assume that she'll spam Cyber Elves, but she might have a pistol as a shout-out to the manga.
    I'll be honest, if they were going to do a human character, I'd have expected Aile, Vent or Ashe first.

  10. Well my memory of ZX is a bit foggy, but SOMEONE had to test the Biometals before they were eventually used in real combat. So her skills could involve Model X and Model Z? But if the developers go that route, they would have to make her drastically different from Vent or Aile should they decide to make one (or both) of them playable.

    Short of that, they could use that energy flower thing from her art. Passy is an option too.

    1. Ciel isn't able to use Biometals. Because she based them on Model W, they ended up having Model W's DNA lock incorporated into them, so only those with Albert's DNA can use them.

    2. Oh, I forgot that detail...oops! .-.

      Well energy flower thing it is then. It might act similar to Cinnamon's "Onegai" skill. It'd be interesting to see her fight Copy X as well.

  11. Music choice is fantastic, although I would have preferred Freesia, much more fitting

    ReplyDelete

    1. Freesia is a cd-only track, so is less likely that fans that played only the games would be familiar with it. Not to mention Promise -Next New World- is technically a Freesia arrange.

      Delete
    2. Wasn't that Freesia in the video??

      Delete
    3. That was "Promise -Next New World-" in the video (MMZ4 credits song).

  12. awesome,hope she uses cyber elfs alongside her moves from the manga(since it's being brought up a lot recently in art.hope the next ones are the zx cast,bass,maybe harpunia,legends,star force and battle network near it's anniversary.:3)
