AYA

"AYA" is a muscial theme that appeared in the PlayStation remake of the original Dead or Alive as the theme for Ayane in Tournament Mode, and the theme for Ayane's stage in Versus, Survival, and Team Battle Modes.

The theme is also optional in the Music Mode in Dead or Alive 5 Last Round, though it can be selectable for any character and gameplay mode.

Dead Or Alive 1 - Aya

Trivia[]

The song title is taken from the first part of Ayane's name (綾, aya), which means "design".
