"Phantom Fire"), or to crush enemies under her butt with her Yusura-Ume (桜桃, lit. She also tends to strike with her buttocks, whether as her butt-first charge Genei-Shiranui (lit. Her style resembles normal ninjutsu with more graceful and majestic moves, somewhat in reference to traditional Japanese dance. Mai uses the Shiranui style of ninjutsu combined with her fire powers to fight. "Mai" (舞), is the Japanese word for "dance", and her surname (不知火) is the title of a Japanese optical phenomenon similar to will-o'-the-wisp. She doesn't hold any hard feelings towards her opponent as seen in her last win pose where she sweetly apologizes to her opponent before suggesting they "have fun". After a match, she will sometimes confidently exclaim that's she's the "best in Japan" whilst catching her fan or fan herself while saying she got sweaty, further showing her confidence and easygoing attitude. Unlike the other fighters, she will frequently say the name of her attacks and special moves as well as throws in combat. In Last Round, her personality is still the same: She's confident and very eager to fight, with her intros involving her announcing her entrance in third person(One of her signature intros from King Of Fighters) as well as telling her opponent to come fight her with a confident calm composure. However, her pride as a Shiranui shinobi and infatuation with Andy usually keeps her from fitting the mold 100% of the time. Despite this, Andy mutually acknowledges her love, but prefers to keep quiet about it.Īlthough her peppy fighting persona suggests otherwise, Mai is actually a traditional and ideal Japanese beauty, always speaking with honorific language, known as "keigo (敬語)". A notable example of this is her intro with Andy in KOF '97, proposing to Andy outright in a wedding dress, or scaring Andy with a mock child doll in KOF '.
She found that same Prince Charming in Andy and self-proclaimed herself his fiancé, which at times, have creeped out Andy himself. Like many girls, she dreams to get married with her prince charming. She also at times compares attractive boys who flirt with her or acknowledge her beauty to Andy, acknowledging their attractiveness but ending with a comment saying they're 'not as cute as Andy'. She can tend to also be somewhat of an airhead and admires any kind beauty or attractiveness, which sometimes comes across as being vain. Mai is a very cheerful and temperamental girl. The only thing in common with her various outfits are her twin tassels at her back (which are always colored in a similar manner to her current attire) and her paper fan (of which the edges have a similar color to the attire she's currently wearing).
She also wears another dress that was similar in overall appearance, but was blue instead of red. Similar to Kasumi, she wears a kunoichi dress as her default, although her dress was primarily red in color and was sleeveless, as well as two red and white tassels at the back containing orbs of the opposite colors, and circular ropes around her shoulders. In her default outfit, she also wears black two-toed shoes with red linings. Mai has fair skin, long dark brown hair tied into a tight high topknot style waist length ponytail with parted bangs and light brown eyes. Mai, noticing her Mugen Tenshin symbol, deduced that Kasumi must be intelligent before requesting a spar to see who was the strongest in Japan.Īfter the spar, Kasumi and Mai chatted, with Mai admitting that exercise always leaves her hungry.Ĭharacter Appearance See also: Mai's costumes
Mai Shiranui then asked if she was the strongest kunoichi, with Kasumi acknowledging Mai's presence. Mai Shiranui tracked down Kasumi, and announced her arrival by throwing a paper fan at her, forcing Kasumi to dodge by teleporting from her bench. 4.2.4 Shinobi Master Senran Kagura: New Linkĭetails of Mai's life are unclear, although she has had run-ins with the Mugen Tenshin Ninja Clan in the past.
