Taiga and Miyuki to be playable in Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax starting June 2014

Dengeki Online has announced that the two new additional main characters, Miyuki and Taiga, as well as the two additional support characters, Tatsuya and Ryuuji, for the Sega’s Dengeki Bunko crossover arcade fighting game, Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax can be playable starting June 2014 after an update.

They also announced new information on all four of the new characters. Let’s start things off with the lovely and icy little sister with a huge brother complex, Miyuki Shiba from The Irregular at Magic High School. Miyuki will be using her ice spells to seal her opponent’s movements and slow them down. She has a wide attack range and opponents might have some trouble getting near her without getting their movements slowed down or sealed. It would really be interesting for her to fight OreImo’s Kirino who is also known to be a little sister with a huge brother complex. It would be a battle of the BroCon Imoutos!

Toradora!’s Palmtop Tiger Taiga Aisaka on the other hand likes to get in close and she will use a wide range of weapons from her signature wooden sword to a snow sled, a baseball bat, and even a school chair. Looks like we will be seeing a lot of unexpected weapons whenever she fights Durarara!!’s Shizuo. Taiga is considered one of the “Four Queens of Tsundere” and it would really be interesting to have her fight the other member of the “Four Queens” in the game, Shana from Shakugan no Shana. The tsun will be high in that one, and you will surely be hearing Rie Kugimiya’s voice a lot as she voices not only both characters, but also the other two members of the “Four Queens”, Nagi from Hayate the Combat Butler! and Louise from The Familiar of Zero. Now, hear the Palmtop Tiger roar!

Miyuki’s elder brother, Tatsuya Shiba also joins the game but only as a support. This has disappointed many fans as they felt that Tatsuya would be better suited to be a main fighter than a support, just like Hataraku Maou-sama’s Maou Sadao who fans also felt would be better off as a main fighter than a support. Tatsuya uses his CAD, the Silver Horn, to seal the movements of his opponents. Looks like it would really be difficult when fighting against the Shiba siblings as both can stop you from moving.

Taiga’s “partner”, Ryuuji Takasu meanwhile will also be a support character. He will use his housekeeping ability to charge at opponents while sweeping the floor. Looks like the “Tiger and Dragon” duo from Toradora! really are unexpected weapon users.
