Though sometimes shortened to DOA, not at ''all'' to be confused with the [[Film Noir]] ''[[D.O.A.|DOA]]'' (which is quite lacking in boobies in comparison), the 1999 [[Yakuza]] ''Dead or Alive'' film series by director [[Takashi Miike]] (likewise), or the [[Tom Clancy]] novel ''Dead or Alive'' (likewise, though there is one amusing bit about an attempt at [[wikipedia:Steganography|steganography]] resulting in inadvertent porn). For the viewer's inconvenience, the 2007 [[The Movie|film adaptation]] of the games is titled ''DOA: Dead or Alive'', instead.
The fifth installment is currently under development and scheduled for release during 2012. So far (as of E3 2012) [[The Hero|Kasumi]], [[The Rival|Ayane]], [[Ninja Gaiden|Hayabusa]], [[Big Brother Mentor|Hayate]], [[Cute Bruiser|Hitomi]], [[Dark Action Girl|Christie]], [[Husky Russkie|Bayman]], [[Anime Chinese Girl|Lei Fang]], [[Fun Personified|Zack]], [[Pro Wrestling Is Real|Bass]], [[Foreign Fanservice|Tina]] and [[Genki Girl|Kokoro]] have been confirmed and shown to the public.

▲The fifth installment is currently under development and scheduled for release during 2012. So far (as of E3 2012) [[The Hero|Kasumi]], [[The Rival|Ayane]], [[Ninja Gaiden|Hayabusa]], [[Big Brother Mentor|Hayate]], [[Cute Bruiser|Hitomi]], [[Dark Action Girl|Christie]], [[Husky Russkie|Bayman]], [[Anime Chinese Girl|Lei Fang]], [[Fun Personified|Zack]], [[Pro Wrestling Is Real|Bass]], [[Foreign Fanservice|Tina]] and [[Genki Girl|Kokoro]] have been confirmed and shown to the public. The game has a deep graphic upgrade from DOA4 (not surprisingly, since it's been 7 years since then) and an aesthetic redesign that shows more realistic characters, with smaller and less anime-like eyes, the same to what was shown in [[Ninja Gaiden|Ninja Gaiden 3]]. Special mention to the girls, who have more realistically proportionate bodies, although the [[Jiggle Physics]] are still in full display. In collaboration with [[Sega]], ''Dead or Alive 5'' will also feature [[Guest Fighter|Guest Fighters]] from the ''[[Virtua Fighter]]'' series. As of E3 2012, Akira Yuki and Sarah Bryant are a part of the roster (and [http://shoryuken.com/2012/03/22/rumor-entire-dead-or-alive-5-cast-discovered-in-demo-code/ this list] suggests that Pai Chan will also make the leap).
