are the katanas as stiff or has the same shape as the womens
because in the picture the women's looks stiffer and a little more downturned
and for all around climbing would the katanas or the miura vs be better?

The Katana's are probably a little better all-around shoe. They've got a good toe, so they edge really well, but they're still pretty comfortable in my opinion. Great for a long day of climbing. The Miura is a much more aggressive shoe, designed to excel on very tough bouldering problems and sport routes. I think you'd probably be very pleased with either shoe, but the Katana, with its velcro straps would be more of the all-around shoe.
