You are fine (it's not a month) but this is a project. You won't get Tomoe, because he's still making her and the other characters.
The only thing you can get for now is the DEMO in the first post.

Didn't know this project was still going. I like the animation style.

Hey guys, I'm back and with a new trailer to show you.

And here it is, Jinzai's first trailer showing off his meterless combos, while also featuring the voice work of the talented Matt Shipman.
Out of everyone in the cast so far, Jinzai is the only character that can deal massive amounts of damage without the need of meter, compared to the rest of the cast his meterless combos are very straight forward and are less varied. The character becomes a lot more scarier when he does have meter though.

Enjoy

I'd welcome you back the only way I know how, but the mods may come at me.

How about just saying "welcome back", is that difficult?

The new character looks cool but I have some points I'd like to discuss:
- is the combo at 0:12 really feasible? Can the enemy recover from that trip attack? The same could be said for the combo shown at 0:30.
- The attack at 0:20 (the fourth hit of the combo) doesn't look very strong, I think it's got to be the timing on that animation;
- the attack at 1:03 (the two-hit flying uppercut, third and fourth hit of the combo) hits twice, but I think it should only hit once (you made it so both the blur frame and the normal frame hit).

The combos at 0:12 and 0:30 are both feasible the enemy can't recover once the sweep connects.

As for the 'two hit flying uppercut' (Dancing Dragon), it's meant to hit twice, the animation shows that he's using both of his legs to do that attack. (Starts with a knee and finishes with a high arching kick.)

As for the attack at 0:20 (Crushing Lion), I'll see what I can do about that, looking back at it now it does seem pretty off.

Thanks for the feedback

No, no, that's not what I meant.
If you go at 0.25x the normal velocity of the video and you get to the time I told you (1:03) you see he hits twice while he's not actually moving (when he's on air, he hits the opponent with his knee twice but he's not moving, on the 3rd and 4th combo hit).

Here's a gif to show what I was arguing:

See? He does two hits.

Ahhhh, you meant his Jump light punch. sorry about that. Yeah, that's a hitspark error on my end, it's supposed to appear on the palm instead of the knee/foot level. The move hitting twice was intentional to make his aerial juggle combos more consistent.

Ah, ok, just wanted to make sure.

Well, it doesn't look that bad, the knee in this case has more range than his punch attack, so it kind of works, just moving those hitsparks some pixels upwards should do the trick.
Also I thought about adding two hitdefs, one for when the enemy is at knee level and another one for when the enemy is at an higher position; in other words, when the attack detects the p2 y position it could behave differently.
But it's just an idea.

Thanks man, I really appreciate the kind words.

As for the big announcement. I'm planning to run a poll to vote for any future characters (Izzy aside) you like the look/sound of. You can find an image of each character within the spoilers as well as a small description of what you can expect from the character fighting style/gameplay wise.
