We have Sadako. She is from a different movie.

A crawling killer would be freaky af but the pov would be weird, it would have to be third person i guess

Puh. I dont know, I would not be excited for such a Chapter.
We have an original Killer who is basically an Onryo with Spirit AND we have Sadako who is even called "The Onryo". And Sadako already was one of the least hype chapters, even tho this was mostly due to the fact that it is the Japanese Original and not the US version and that it was announced so early.
I dont think that a third Onryo-like Killer would really be exciting.

why not you know the devs are gonna run out of ideas eventually so she’ll have to join haha

First, they're not "Onryo-like", all three just are onryo - female vengeful spirits. It's what an onryo is.
Second, Kayako would 100% play different from the others. Not only does she mainly crawl and use her hair in her kills, able to pop up in the randomness of places, but she can also be paired with Toshio. I could see having, maybe, two - three abilities for her, such as the ability to teleport or phase through objects (it'd have to be or the other, cause both would be too strong), something to do with her hair, and the ability to use Toshio - who I could being a case of sending him out and him popping up at a random survivor and then giving away their location, or being an obstacle on the map that spawns randomly that makes you scream.
Third, just because the game already has one type of killer doesn't mean they have to limit themselves to never using that genre again, so long as the killer plays different. Hopefully fair and not too strong and not too weak, but plays different.

There's a lot of unexplored ideas with licensed killers still, we don't have:
Slenderman,
Any SCP would work,
Anything from Killing Floor could work, especially the arachnids,
The Witch from Left 4 Dead could be cool, i imagine her crying around the map just to end up throwing a tantrum,
IT,
The Creeper from Jeepers Creepers,
Predator,
Hannibal Lecter
And if we're talking non-horror, but that can still work, we have Voldemort from Harry Potter, Azog from LOTR, Scarecrow from Batman,
There's almost an infinite amount of killers to pick from, they don't need to redo the same thing

Girl Kayako would eat BOTH of those losers up

Dont care, but that would be interesting.
From what I've heard she's similar to Sadako, but way more physical than psychic

I would prefer the Devs take a long break from J-horror. We have Sadako, Spirit and Oni . We don’t need more. I’d rather have monster/demons from other cultures please.
Like give me an Egyptian mummy with a map on the Nile. Goblins from Europe could work (give me a goblin slayer chapter plz) with a run down castle map (not Borgo). Or how about a Cyclops from Greece, featuring some ancient architecture. I’d even take an Irish leprechaun in a map of rolling green hills and tall grass. There’s plenty to take from and we don’t need to revisit Japan for a fourth time.

it’s not about what we don’t need the thing is people want Jason in the game so badly which I do as well noted we have Michael and Trapoer who are slashers with mask so why can’t it be the same for kayako?? Plus oni isn’t a onryo yes he’s a samurai warrior killer but not a onryo

I wasn’t focusing on what the Killer is, I was focusing on where they’re from. We already have three unique Killers from Japan. The game doesn’t need yet another one from there when there are plenty of other places that can be represented in the game.
We have a very diverse playerbase and some of us would like to have our cultures represented in game. At the very least, it doesn’t have to be our cultures but more variety than having a fourth Japanese Killer.
As far as Jason goes, he’s reached beyond the ranks of just culture, he’s a global horror icon. Literally the mascot of Slasher films. It’s actually sad he’s not in the game.

Yea that’s my point you’re saying where the killer is from by saying we have 3 Japanese killlers which is valid. But we have like how many American horror slashers in dbd? We have Ghostface Michael Freddy Leatherface and now people want Jason which he should join. Plus it wouldn’t be a bad idea to add kayako because she has different abilities than spirit and sadako. Kayako can crawl and use her hair abilities and teleport to different parts of the map plus she has Toshio who can spot out survivors and I think kayako can be used very differently in third person since she can crawl. I dont see why they wouldn’t add her just because she’s similar to sadako I mean she is the best iconic Japanese horror
