/r/Ayane
I always assumed so, back when I first played DOA 2 - her colouration matches what a lot of anime at the time used a stand-in for albinism, and "Rei Ayanami Expy" is a trope for a reason (even if tropes didn't exist as such at the time). Ayane's a little angrier than the usual, but it just makes her a better character.
However, she sports a bit of a tan in DOA Xtreme: Venus Vacation from what I can see, and in recent games, her eye colour is shared with Honoka - who is very much not an albino, but who does have good reasons for having those eyes (in fact, given her other attributes, she might have even more reason than Ayane).
So given that they're apparently genetic, are Ayane's hair and eyes just a means for the artists to make her stand out, or is there an actual purpose to her particular colouring - and if so, what?
