Ryota Niitsuma revealed a long while back that an Okami stage was planned but then scrapped due to clashes with the art style. It's nice to see that its theme was able to make its way to the public though.
They should just add the stage back into the next update or DLC. I'm pretty sure it'd be an awesome stage.
Okami Stage & an Avengers Mansion stage would be awesome.
So what if the art style is different, I would LOVE to see an okami based stage. This sort of fast paced theme would probably mean its in an infected place, but then the secondary version of the stage could be that same place minus the infection. So it could be like Kamiki village with Mr orange doing the konohana shuffle on kamiki tower.
I also have a "Character themes" jukebox I made a while back:
Precisely because the style is different, that would have made it a great stage.
This and a Marvel Zombies stage would be absolutely awesome.
what a shame Okami had so many great sets who cares if the art style clashes with too many other characters its a crossover game you can let some stuff slide a little i mean just cuz you guys couldn't picture HULK in Kamiki village some guys didnt picture FIRE-BRAND fighting on S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Heli-carrier deck. Guys am i wrong or am i right?
This is the first of heard that there was once an Okami stage in production. I must have glanced over that article. But man, i would have loved one in the game >.< This music is pretty sick too....gaaaah! I can almost picture Ammy and Issun with Susanoo battling a slowly awakening Orochi in the background =(

Great jukebox, I still have it bookmarked from when you first unveiled it (probably on eventhubs since i cant imagine how else I would've stumbled upon it).

I'd actually have to heavily disagree with you on that one friend. The mvc/umvc3 is pretty forgettable. The only themes I like are doom's, zero's phoenix's, dormammu's, and the DMC twins. Other than that the ost is pretty meh. That's just my opinion though.
God that is a pretty sick theme to just go wasted like that smh. Oh well I can imagine a stage based on that game would have things like the landscape in the background being painted over and over with the brush and things getting real 70s Zeppelin trippy movie style. For a fact something like that would lag on the consoles, and it'd probably yellow light of death the ps3.
Glad they didnt use this original stage and kept
a Black & White version of a stage we already had
a daytime version of a stage we already had
a snowing version of a stage we already had and
a slightly dim version of a stage we already had
BTW Keep up the dark stages and dark costumes (esp those with teleports)
How did this turn into a anime vs street fighter argument?
Yea and im sure phoenix Wright looks normal in all the stages. They really needed to represent more games and different comics as backgrounds in mvc3. An okami stage would look real nice.
If Ammy could make it, I don't see why her stage can't.
@ 32
the same reason Pheonix Wright couldnt get one.
Why was I expecting this theme to be really good before even hearing it? because ANYTHING capcom SCRAPS is always the best stuff, they leave the mediocre crap. nice job capcom keep supporting SOPAA.
That's a shame =/ I wanted to see Kamiki village with all of the characters in the background and the Sakura tree with Sakuya.
