"graceful" and "erotic", and she has been compared to a "ballerina" or a "stripper", with much emphasis on her "gyrating," hips, and "jiggling" buttocks. ScreenRant named Vanessa one of the "10 Best Female Protagonists On The Nintendo GameCube" calling her "a tough, brave, and agile fighter." GamesRadar named Vanessa "Miss 2003" in their "Sexiest New Characters of the Decade" article in 2012, saying "her erotic gyrations and stripper-sensuality are built into the gameplay, intertwining sex appeal and general mechanics into an inseparable cocktail of feminine artistry. Before long, you will be distracted by her.... It's inevitable." In 2008, RipTen ranked Vanessa fifth in their "Top 10 Nicest Asses in Video Games" list, writing "Vanessa attacks her opponents by dancing hypnotically in skin-tight outfits and using the concentrated hotness to fire beams of eroticism" and "at no point in the game did she ever stop shaking it." BlockFort'' also ranked her fourth in a similar list. She has been called "a strong sassy sarcastic female mercenary who kicks arse", a "memorable lead...constantly dancing her way through danger", and "a very cool character...that is fun to simply watch."
