Dead or Alive 5



A 2012 videogame, developed by Team Ninja and published by Koei Tecmo. A installment of the Dead or Alive series.

Two years after the events of Dead or Alive 4, Helena Douglas has rebuild DOATEC, but wishing to use its resources in a more benevolent way. To rebuild their public image, she decided to host a new Dead or Alive tournament, obviously. While this is happening, Kasumi's clone Alpha-152 is still roaming around, and the ninja characters, including Kasumi herself, are trying to find her, unconcerned with the tournament.


 * And Now For Something Completely Different: In the final chapters,.
 * Alas, Poor Villain:.
 * Amnesiac Hero: New character Rig only remembers his life from a point where he was already working on DOATEC's oil platform.
 * Bloodless Carnage: At least one character is killed, but no blood is seen.
 * Co-Dragons:.
 * Disappears Into Light:.
 * Meaningful Name: M.I.S.T., an organization funded by Victor Donovan, whose acronym name is the world in english equivalent to "Kasumi"..
 * Nipple-and-Dimed: Only the male characters. Specially egregious in the case of Alpha-152 since she is naked.
 * Panty Fighter: Yeah, you're gonna see some panty shots with less or more effort.
 * Paper-Thin Disguise: Tina isn't fooled by one second by Bass' Mister Strong disguise.
 * Running Gag: Christie's search for a "real man", though is only really humorous when she is teasing Eliot.
 * Those Two Guys:
 * Eliot and Brad Wong are almost always seen together in Story Mode.
 * The same with Leifang and Hitomi.
 * Two Lines, No Waiting: The fifth tournament has nothing to do with the hunt for Alpha-152, and characters interested in one barely interact with the ones from other.
 * Walking Spoiler:
 * One of the big twists of the story revolves around a character who isn't is what he himself thinks he is, so it's impossible to talk about him without mentioning the twist.
 * The truth about Rig's identity is very spoilerrific too.
 * World of Buxom: It don't would be Dead or Alive otherwise.
