Baiken (Japanese: 梅喧)/baɪˈkɛn/ is a character in Arc System Works' Guilty Gear fighting game series. Created by Daisuke Ishiwatari and first appearing in the 1998 video game Guilty Gear, Baiken was originally depicted as being male, before being changed to female tomboy to give her more impact as a character. While she was an optional boss in the first game, she has since appeared as a fully playable character in every entry since. The survivor of an attack upon Japan that cost her her family, an eye, and her right arm, Baiken seeks revenge against the man responsible. Dressed in a kimono and wielding a katana, she has a grappling hook concealed in her right sleeve, and fights by parrying her opponent's attacks. Over the course of the series she has been voiced by Satomi Koorogi, Miho Sudou, Yonemoto Chizu, Mayumi Asano, and Patty Mattson.
Baiken has been well received, described as a fan favorite. She has received significant praise for her personality and "swagger", and considered highly appealing for her rejection of feminine stereotypes often associated with characters in the same vein as her. While some criticism has been levied against the character's increased sex appeal as the games have progressed, it has also received praise for the increased discourse regarding her. The character has since appeared in several titles outside of the Guilty Gear series, including mobile games such as mobile game Crusaders Quest and the 2019 SNK-produced fighting game Samurai Shodown.
