Line 6:
* [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]]: After six long years Dead or Alive 5 has finally been announced!
** For some, toning down the [[Fan Service]] by several notches to focus on the more important fighting mechanics. For many, the inclusion of {{spoiler|[[Virtua Fighter]] characters!}}
* [[Big Lipped Alligator Moment|Big-Lipped Alligator Moment]]: In the final cut scene of Helena's ''DOA 4'' story and Dimensions' story-line. Everything's going to hell. Then suddenly, there's this shot where some random woman who wasn't seen in any other part of the game is being shot in the head. Why it seems so out of place is because this was a cinematic cut scene, which none of the cinematic ones had any extras in up until this point. What made this shot even more jarring was that pretty much all other extras in the game are all blank-faced clones who all seem to shop from the same clothing store. Many character endings from the first four games could also qualify. Some even look completely out of character. Why does Kasumi dream of being a (naked) mermaid in what looks like a J-Pop music video?
* [[Broken Base]]: The fanbase is split into two main factions: Those that prefer the original fighting series, and those who prefer the soft-porn beach side-series. Similarly, the second faction is in itself split over whether or not to include an official nude option (which, aside from various hacks within those games and an April Fools Day joke from EGM, no such option actually exists).
** And now there's a new split based on the announcement by Team Ninja that they're toning down the fanservice (and breast sizes) in ''Dead Or Alive 5''.
