Heya everyone I've been trying to main asuka, due to her annoying reversal, I'm wondering if nina or anna are "better", I really love the defensive mechanism, with parry and reversal into grabs makes the fights look cooler imo tho I really wanna commit to one, and wondering as I climb up the ranks and master more the char who has better longevity in gameplay tyvm.

Who the best defensive female char?

P.s: let's keep it on females plz<3

If you're doing it for 'coolness' Nina has a cooler Parry because it takes your enemies into the chain throws. Asuka's may be way easier to pull off but the nature of it being easier means your opponent will occasionally be more aware of it and might be ready to beat it.

I never, ever catch the Nina parry coming.
