Be patient, 21. Remember, there's going to be around 200 characters (Playable/Enemies) in total when the game comes out. We're just barely at around 50.

@The Trailer
At around 00:41 on the right, that looks like an area from the Megaman Battle Network series…

Edit:
Also, at 1:11 it's kind of difficult to tell but that looks a lot like a courtroom.

That's actually Cyber Peacock's stage from then MMX series.

Wait wait wait a second… how would a game like this be able to sustain that many characters!? I can get a roster of 100 the most, but 200… hot damn, 200!?

Also, I nominate Seaman for playable character, pls!

Here's a couple of gifs because their neat:

Rinsan, I found a higher quality version of that scan you posted. This is the wallpaper version-

As for a character choice, I'd want Vectorman.

He needs some love.

Rinsan, I found some gifs of the game and… I will not regret posting the giggle.

Oh, and John McClain, too, I guess…

@Leo: O///O Uhh… uh-huh. Yep, the game has a lot of that. That's… yeah.

Here's some screenshots of the original characters, Kogoro Tenzia and Mii Kouryuuji:

So what do you all hope to see in the game other than extra characters? To me the battles seemed like the enemies never even launched an attack, while it was probably just to show off the many playable characters' fighting styles I am hoping the game doesn't focus too much on the visual side an forget the actual gameplay. While I have to admit it looks pretty seamless when it comes to the graphics and storytelling, if the fighting is simply the a button and the control pad as it looked like in the video, they are going to need some solid combo systems or something to make the fights enjoyable past your first run with each character.

@Panda: If I remember correctly, Project X Zone's battle system is based off a combination of Namco X Capcom and Super Robot Wars OG Saga: Endless Frontier. Funny, both those games and Project X Zone were/are being made by Monolith and Banpresto and share many similar characters.
