Preecha is a scientist
investigating the wonders and miracles of a fascinating principle known as ki
(spirit energy). While her martial arts talent can't be denied, that's not to
say she's only in it to win it either; indeed, Preecha fights for academic
purposes, not accolades. She hates the pain, but sure is willing to endure
it—as long as it furthers her research into unique and perplexing fight
styles. She is the star pupil of Joe
Higashi.

I've been waiting
to see Joe Higashi's student since Garou: MOTW2 was rumored and then
canceled! I remember the Muay Thai girl and thought she's be a great fit to the
roster. Preecha is a
colorful and charismatic newcomer to Fatal Fury. The fact that she's
based around a legit martial art and has references to Joe Higashi in her
moveset makes her (mostly) easily likeable to old school SNK fans.
She's a bit quirky and has some "imperfect" movements, but it gives
her charm. Her animation is pretty cute, yet she kicks well as any kicker
should. She pivots and throws roundhouse kicks like a proper Muay Thai fighter,
and she's even got a special command grab initiated by a low kick that puts her
opponent in the clench and does knee strikes (not unlike Bruce Irvin). Preecha's
auto-combo is fun to connect with her S.P.G. move. She brings the ouch factor!
Her tornado projectiles are a great homage to Joe's iconic super move. My favorite part of her visual design might be the
her name printed ever so clearly on her shorts, which looks insanely crisp in 4K
in-game! I like her hairstyle too. So far, she's surprisingly my favorite newcomer
introduced in COTW.
