mukai died, along with the boss from XI (forgot his name), meaning 2 of the 5 are dead( this is so like orochi chapter, 97 anyone), and 1 guy fromt the pic along with the 2 chicks (one from XI) are still alive.
so i think they will be like the orochi team from 97, though i really dont know for sure if they will use them like this and/ or if they will be choosable from the start as a normall team and with a cheat they get dragonpowered like 97 orochi team, going orochi mode. the last boss has to be gaia, orochis lover, it could be that 1 of the 2 chicks from the 2k3 ending is actually gaia, the one on the far left, since she seems to be standing by herselfe.
besides one thing i dont uderstand about orochi and gaia, snkp (not snk) made it so that gaia is orochis lover, gaia is female. orochi 97 was a male but orochi can come in male and female form, it probably depends on which pure blooded virgin host body he uses, like a male or female (97 was chris, but it could have been shermie and then orochi probably would have been female). so does this mean gaia is always female, so in fact a bisexual lady (hope so
) or that gaia can also use the from of a male or either female
