Wow! About time we finished her, and yes, I'm the one who made all her sprites (save for the normal and win portraits my friend Jarquin10 did for us), and we enjoyed working on this project we put effort and dedication to!

-There is no sound effect where she jumps (It's only used when she jumps while running forward).

-When she hits the ground twice, it's the dust effect for supers and not the ground shockwave.

-Float should have a sound effect where she's swinging her hands trying to fly.

-All super moves should have a dedicated portrait and not use it's big portrait (Changing (9000,1) will change that as well, so I can't give her a custom one if I want to).

-There is no KO background animation when defeating an opponent with a super.

-The super background doesn't freeze during superpause (The BG animation still keeps going when using Training's menu).

-The voices feels lacking as she says the same things when using specials or supers.

-All her supers except Shiny Arc has the wrong attribute flag when the opponent is defeated (S instead of H).

attr = S, HA

The sprites are great. Although, I just wish your friend could make another portrait dedicated for supers. Amazing work on the character by the way.

The shockwave itself is fine, but pretty sure the dust originated from the Marvel vs Capcom series and not meant to be used like that as it's for supers due to the effect's proportions. Why not use a dedicated dust shockwave effect for it instead? I'm certain there is one out there you could use.

You can, but I don't like how it appears behind her and not in front. And it also disappears too quickly so you can't see it and it's not big enough to cover the bottom corner. A dedicated super portrait for it is much preferred, but I'm not sure if Jarquin10 is willing to do that as the portraits match the character's palette.

I originally thought you were going for the Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter aesthetic since the super background came from there. You're also missing a super spark when a super is activated.

Are you certain? Because if any character uses a super and freezes briefly before they attack, the background from Akko's supers will be the only thing that's still moving. Like what kind of situations? Just so I can get an idea.

I see. I was thinking about voice clips from the anime like what Shimmering Brony did with his Panty and Stocking. The only thing you'll have to worry about is the background music if any.

It really depends on the lifebars you use. They should appear as the H icon when finishing a opponent and all show S as they were beaten with a special. The default lifebars should easily tell.

No problem, I never knew who the author was and turns out it was you who done it. Well done.

Thanks for mentioning the debug error with the ex special portrait, that will be fixed. I don't think I'll change the portrait and dust layering, but I still appreciate your thoughts on them.

Diana is ice based, yeah. Giving the two opposing elements was a detail I thought about all the way back when Akko was first being worked on. Complications on my end of development are why Diana has taken so long, but I'm hoping she can be released maybe this month. She really just needs some visual touch ups here and there and she's done. I recently made a demonstration video for her if you're interested in checking that out.

It's probably because Akko doesn't have anim 5035. Since it's an optional animation (which is why I chose not to add it), that error is technically an issue with OHMSBY's custom state. It should detect if the victim has that animation and switch them to a different one if they don't.

It was me who was quiet about the character, lol. Shim was happy for me to reveal progress after he made that initial preview video, but I didn't really have any to show off as I was barely moving forward with the character. Only until a few-ish months ago did I have something substantial to display.

KFM has a few more optional animations, like 5101 for instance, so it's an honest mistake to make.
