When DOA2 first came out, I was hoping to be wowed by the new characters. Another "pretty blonde"...? Don't we have enough already?  To me, she seemed to be marketed primarily as yet another DOA blonde with big boobs. On the bright side, she has evolved fairly well over the years, acquiring some decent new moves. Helena's moveset appears to take quite a bit of inspiration from Ling Xiaoyu of Tekken... the most basic comparison being Helena's Bokuho stance and Ling's Phoenix stance. Helena isn't a total copycat, however, but I'd say that Helena looks slightly less natural than Ling does. Some of Helena's attacks lack impact and "oomph," aren't believable, and her overall style is perhaps too "bird-like". Besides her ridiculous amount of arm-flapping, Helena has some cool kicks and throws. Visually, her default outfits are... "pretty"... but lack flash, excitement, or coolness. Helena's face also seems to have ZERO expression, most of the time. She's plain. And no, her silly Sephiroth / Aeris bangs don't magically make her cool either. Overall, Helena still seems weirdly redundant in DOA and forced as a design.
