Anna Vs Nina?

[Signed Picasso]

So I was gonna main Niner when I first started T7 last year, but I thought her karate chops looked silly.

I came back, bought anna, and in order to justify the 6 DOLLARS, I bit my cuticles and played her anyway. I enjoy her playstyle, but am getting annoyed by her generic fem fatale persona.

So how do these characters differ?
Why would you choose one over the other, playstyle wise?
Is one more of a whiff punisher than the other? Or are they equal rushdown characters?
Will my trivial reasons for choosing a character get in the way of a meaningful and fufilling life?

Dont play nina unless you really want her to be your main. She's a big execution character

Nina is better than Anna. Anna lacks some tools, you will struggle to find anything to attack the opponent without taking heavy risks, she has no decent, safe mids.

I'd say Nina is the best of the two, her tools are just better. Also Nina isn't as hard on execution if you don't care about doing multiple instant while standing butterflies in a combo for maximum wall carry. If you are good at doing qcf motions Nina can get very juicy combos using her qcf1.
Example CH4->qcf1->qcf1->qcf1->qcf1->qcf3 (which also looks sick and it's a lot of damage from a i11 ch)

They dont. The only difference I see is one has blonde long hair and the other is a brunette bob cut poking me with 2 pointer fingers and when I tell them to stop it leaves me out for an attack pokes to a launcher then wall push combo.

Nina is like King and Anna is like Armor King. One has more moves and technical options, but hard to excecute, the other has fewer moves but very powerful ande easy.

basically Anna is the easier version of Nina. Nina is tough to learn at the same time high rewarding over Anna.

Anna is all about 50/50 game from her stance and from crouch.So she is high risk high reward character.

Nina has more tools and she is better in general.Her 50/50 game isnt as strong as Anna,but she is safer on block.Her pressure game is better,her whiff and block punishers are better.She has some hard execution stuff like her iws1,but you can do slightly weaker combos with much easier execution.Her ss1 cancels is also hard,but you can cancel ss1 into qcf and ws moves easily.And cancelling ss1 to another ss1 is easy too.So you can play her without doing her hard execution stuff.

Thank you everyone for your answers.
I will continue with Anna untill I get bored and then move on to her longer lasting sister.

Anna has her CHAOS JUDGEMENT stance, Nina doesn't have it.

With all due respect reguarding the kings, in my experience, thats not very accurate. I could elaborate but nah
