Bayonetta’s character designer worked on some outfits for Soul Calibur V

Anyone else seeing hints of X-Men's Sabretooth?

Platinum Games’ Bayonetta is easily one of the most memorable additions to Sega’s character roster in the last several years, thanks in no small part to Mari Shimazaki’s off-kilter, sexy/bizarre character design.

It looks like those talented hands are getting sassy again, as Shimazaki has designed some new costumes for a few of the lovely ladies in Soul Calibur V, including alternate outfits for Ivy and Tira, as well as the primary design for Xianghua’s daughter, Leixia.
