Yoda

BIO:

A wise and powerful Jedi master in the Star Wars universe. Recognized as the most senior Jedi Master in the order, of which he was Grand Master, Yoda possessed tremendous potential and power in the Force. In his nine centuries, he had trained almost every Jedi in the Galaxy, including Obi-Wan Kenobi, Count Dooku, Ki-Adi Mundi, and Mace Windu. Perhaps the only Jedi of the Old Republic not to have been directly taught by Yoda was Anakin Skywalker - which may have contributed to the young man's fall to the dark side (when he became Darth Vader).

Yoda's most important student was arguably Luke Skywalker, whom Yoda trained to become the future of the Jedi. Having trained the first member of the New Jedi Order, Yoda served as the conduit between the two orders, passing the flame he kept alive for so long to the next generation.

Sometimes it's still hard for me to believe that Yoda actually appeared in Soul Calibur... I never would've guessed that one. Anyhow, as I expected, Namco did a pretty amazing job with Yoda's fighting style, moveset, and animations. Yoda's animations are true to his epic movie fight scenes and he has a cool, yet annoying-to-fight-against fighting style. lol.

So what do I think of Yoda in general? Well, for one, I always thought the way he talks is kinda... silly. He's a cool character in Star Wars and all, don't get me wrong, but the manner in which he speaks (placing verbs at the end of a clause, and inverting the object and subject) either irritates me and/or just makes me giggle... it never fails. So really, what is up with Yoda's speech impediment? It just seems like he's trying a little too hard to sound smart. Plus it seems to take him longer to get his point across, speaking in "Anastrophe". Haha... okay, enough picking on Yoda. He's got enough problems as it is... being short and green.
