Ao Oni chapter for Dead by Daylight

With how popular Ao Oni is in Japan with all forms of games, novels, anime and even live action films, i think it's safe to say that the blue demon Ao Oni at least deserves a spot in Dead by Daylight in the current roster of killers, i think that the chapter should come with Ao Oni as the killer with their name being "The Rumor" while also getting Hiroshi as the survivor and the mansion that Ao Oni haunts as the map, Dead by Daylight doesn't really have any RPGmaker game rep yet and i honestly think that the best choice that BHVR could go for is Ao Oni as the game used to be a very big hit on YouTube similar to Five Nights at Freddy's, i know that we might not never see Ao Oni come into the game but man i would just love to play as Ao Oni and chase down Alan Wake and Lara Croft in the mansion.

    If Ao Oni is also a kind of Oni, it would be nice if it came as an Oni skin.

    I like this kind of RPGmaker horror stuff too, but to be honest Ao Oni never stood out to me that much for anything except being popular, and the Oni itself feels very difficult to translate into DbD- An artstyle that doesn't really fit semi-realistic 3D and with Power material to draw off.

    I personally think skins would be a better way to go. I know KIKIYAMA is famous for being hard to get in touch with, but they've been open to things like Yume Nikki getting a manga or reimagining as a platformer by another developer, so I don't think a character like Feng getting a Madotsuki skin is too crazy of an idea.

    As for the Ao Oni being a skin for Oni, I can't see a full blown Legendary conversion skin working, but I could see something like Oni being mostly painted blue, wearing less armor, and having an oversized uncanny mask to sell a sort of cosplay, it could be a cool skin.
