Out of all the new characters in Soul Calibur 4 and 5, she was the only one who really stuck out as a good concept in game. We had a lot of weird characters in 4 and 5 introduced - bubble-spam Necrid-Hybrid lord Algol, Star Wars, Starkiller/Zwei, and Hilde with the button hold spam. It'd be a shame for Viola(Amy?) to be cut with the freddy claw and orb style. They never explained where she came from, and in this game they can show that.
