Shinra's nefarious scientist, the man behind the JENOVA Project, Hojo, is finally back in the arena after a long period away! And he's more than ready to continue his twisted experiments "in the name of science". His first specimen, Nina, will be a pleasure to toy with. Hojo is well known for his vast array of dangerous status, created with his Combo attack. As soon as Hojo releases even one of these malicious attacks, poor Nina will be practically helpless, almost completely unable to attack. What could have been an intense match is all but over, as Nina being Silenced guarantees she won't be using any magic. The only question here is which will come first; Nina's surrender or her slow, painful defeat.
