Lu-cha! Lu-cha! Lu-cha!
One of the ten sacred treasures from King of Fighters EX 2.
Why does it include the MI cast, but EX gets shafted?
Help me. I can't get it out of my head.
Krispy Kaiser implied it was a rights issue since those were created by Marvelous.
NM released a small interview with the art team behind KOFAS, the most exciting thing to come from it is that they showed some scrapped designs: Sentais Leona and Heidern, Singer Hotaru, and a ton of unused Ladies: Shingo, Kyo, Iori, Heidern and unused designs for Lady Geese, Lady Chang, Lady Yashiro, Lady Maxima, and Lady Big.
Lu-cha! Lu-cha! Lu-cha!
Dang, I wish we got the rest of the Ikari team as Sentai Rangers. Those designs are great. I was not expecting Lady Chang to get a lot of love in the fan art contest entries either.
Help me. I can't get it out of my head.
This is going to be so much fun.
With SNK stating they kinda want their own Smash Bros. I suddenly remembered Guilty Gear Isuka.
Lu-cha! Lu-cha! Lu-cha!
We have two new peeps coming to All Star: Duo Lon from 2003 and Omega Rugal from XV.
They teased Omega Rugal with one of their famous silhouettes, yeah. Glad he's wearing his coat tho.
Didn't expect Duo Lon tho.
Surrounded by weirdoes
Trailer for Team Samurai is out.
Wake me up at your own risk.

Somehow, KOFAS Rugal looks better than XV's
Very faithful translated from Sam Sho 2019 and Haohmaru finally doesn't look like a midget. Otherwise, not very impressed with them.

Love the callback with Mai. Team Samurai looks great. It feels a bit weird seeing the Samsho characters using faster KOF style combo strings, but they look fun.
They're also adding music from the Maximum Impact trilogy to the DJ station
.

I also liked the Mai call-back.
One Strip! One Strip!
Lu-cha! Lu-cha! Lu-cha!
I'm not sure if it's the stage lighting or what, but I don't remember Dolores being that shiny.
Help me. I can't get it out of my head.

>Is not only a copyright landmine, SNK themselves hate the guy with a passion. There's absolutely zero chance he will be back or even acknowledged ever again.
Krohnen really made it r/agedlikemilk.
There's so much I wish I could take back.
Team Samurai ending is the weirdest thing I've seen
Nobody is talking about girlboss Mizuki in the suit and I want that fixed.

I was inspired by the Epileptic Trees entry on the YMMV page. Considering that it's meant to bring back every character, we'll assume that they get the legal issues surrounding the Another World team and the EX cast sorted... just in time to go bankrupt again (as in, for good). Without further to do, here's my (totally unrealistic) prediction for SNK's hypothetical Swan Song: The King of Fighters Universal Match:
Team Japan: Kyo, Benimaru, Daimon

Team Ikari: Leona (Orochi Leona), Ralf, Clark
Team Women Fighters: Chizuru (Maki), King, Mai

Team K': K', Maxima, Whip
Team (In)Justice: Jhun, Najd, Galford
Team Pretty Girls: May Lee, Hinako, Mian

Team Neo Geo: Ai, Kisarah, Cyber Woo
Team Fighter's History: Mizoguchi, Yungmie, Samchay
In Arcade Mode, you get to pick the last 3 stages by deciding upon one out of five possible routes. The Superboss overrides your decided Final Boss if you meet the requirements:

Shun'ei Saga Mid-Boss Team: Team Another World: Fio, Mui Mui, Love Heart
Shun'ei Saga Penultimate Boss: Verse (Re Verse)
Shun'ei Saga Final Boss: Otoma=Raga
Maximum Impact Mid-Boss Team: Team Duke: Duke, Lien, Hyena
Maximum Impact Penultimate Boss: Luise
Maximum Impact Final Boss: Jivatma
The Superboss: Rugal (Omega Rugal)
That ending montage at the end of the Samurai Shodown ending has big "Elena travels the world, taking selfies with Akuma" energy.

Okay, now I'm gonna roast some KOF characters with one sentence. Feel free to add any more roasts.
- Takuma Sakazaki - Everyone knows you're Mr. Karate now, knock it off.
- K9999 - Tetsuo Shima copyright infringement.
- Ash Crimson - So base-breaking he had to wipe himself from existence.
- Gato - "My big brother is actually kind of a douchebag."
- Sylvie Paula Paula - She probably got dressed in complete darkness.
This is going to be so much fun.
Didn't realize they revamped Nakoruru's supers. Glad they resemble her old moves. Still weird they didn't bring her heal back.
Lady Chin and Athena XV are coming to All Star
Lu-cha! Lu-cha! Lu-cha!
Well at least Lady Chin has some of regular Chin's old thing.
Hey, they haven't forgotten Chin's old moveset! That's neat.
