It's crazy that all these years of playing KOF that the true story of the game involved Kyo and Iori. I was satisfied with whooping ass with Kim and them, Fatal Fury and Art of Fighting teams, and the Women's team. It took me to get KOF Orochi Saga on the Nintendo Wii to finally understand the story. SNK does an exceptional job of character development and depth. Excellent Work Nabil.
Oh wow. This is the best Orochi video that I have seen. No filler, no delays, good pacing, no missing details, included relevant side characters, and good choice of music. You weren't lying about spending a lot of time on this video. Great job man. This should be shared with anyone that isn't familiar with the lore.
You did a fantastic job! Congratulations! The images, the editing and your voice are excellent! Even if I know the KOF story by heart, I truly enjoyed your presentation of the Orochi saga, which is my favorite!
imagine a SNK Cinematic Universe, starting with Art of Fighting, 2nd movie Fatal Fury, 3rd movie Psycho Warriors, 4th movie Kusanagi. all are interconnected with post credit scene. final movie is The King of Fighters where the big bad is Rugal .... please somebody forward the idea to SNK top heads, hire a good film director like Jon Favrue to kick things start :)
I'm a simple man. I see NeoGeoNow upload and I watch the video. This guy is amazing with his SNK info and documentaries. Easily a 10 out of 10 UA-camr. Great work as always!
As a long time fan since FF1, AoF, IW, MS, SamSho and KOF94' (yup I have been on this ride since the beginning). This docu-series is fantastic, exploring the mythos, connections, and history. There is so much lore established throughout SNK's history. KOF has evolved, but also the journey of the characters is an amazing one. Even more mature than its competition, then and even now. I always loved the art style, it gave characters their own personality, energy, and vibe throughout. Plus the soundtracks have gone beyond the sound of the NeoGeo, original, arrange, and songs that get stuck in your head.
wonderful explanation!!! I started playing KOF in 2001 but my first game was KOF97 on the local arcade. It's been more than 20 years and I'm still a fan!
Since KOF XV is a few Blocks away, now would be a Great Opportunity for a Recap of the KOF Story and Timeline to Explained all about it, Awesome Job, my Brother.
In the end it all comes back to orochi story.... after the vers we get to see other god from orochi world. I cannot wait to see what will happen in kof 16
17:34 I'm feeling sad for Iori, he's sacrifice himself for Kyo..Iori looking to Kyo look a like he's said (Kyo this a chance for u to kill me and sealing Orochi, do it now my rival)
Wow! This was a great presentation! Thank you for refreshing my memory of the story behind KOF, it made me appreciate the series more than I already have. I still remember the first time I played KOF '94 when I was a pre-teen at a local arcade. It is so cool that you have SNK & Koch Media's blessings for the presentations, congrats! I'm looking forward to seeing the other parts. Much respect.

Hopefully, one day we get a true anime for KOF. The story is so well-written and underrated for a fighting game. It far eclipses whatever Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat have. There's over 100 relevant characters and they each have an in-depth backstory with no cliches.
This is outstanding! Thank you! Just picked up KOFXV (my first KOF as a big FG fan) and this changes everything- now I really appreciate the fan service that SNK has provided and the team aspect in gameplay. Finally understand the significance and history of The Sacred Treasures team thanks to you!
Just ordered KOF XIV and KOFXIII - really digging this series! Found the Orochi saga (PS2/ PSP port) on the PSN store and though it’s hard as nail it’s great to see the story you told alive in action!
Great work on this man! I may have seen other people break down the lore for KOF like rooflemonger and Shoryugame but you and the others really put your hearts to doing this! So proud of you and it was totally worth the wait! Hope this video could influence others into giving KOF a chance (if they haven't already thought about buying KOFXV).
You missed out that goenitz is the reason when rugal had orochi power in his blood after they had a confrontation hence why rugal lost an eye but didn't die. Out of respect goenitz decided instead of killing him that rugal might be useful so he gave him the power to see if one day has can be a vessel for orochi resurrection :)
Great Job Nabil! Very well put together orochi saga video. This video is being shared everywhere and I'm glad to see your hard work paying off. Congratulations
I had to keep the episode around 20mn. I had that first included int eh script but had to cut it down. However i will be announcing a cool series after this one where we will even get into more details of the KOF lore. Stay Tuned!
This is awesome. I'm very familiar with the orochi saga since at that time i played kof a lot in the arcade....but I am very excited for the nests saga and ash saga, especially ash. I barely played any ash saga game so i dont know much about the lore.
That was fantastic thank you. So the fact that this Rock band team are back does theoretically mean Orochi is back for KOF XV? Also was Regal possed by Orochi what's the deal there?
@@BigALBoomer Rugal tried to steal same of the Orochi power but Goenitz, in a single attack, cut of Rugal s eye. Seeing that Rugal is strong enough to survive this attack Goenitz allowed Rugal to take same of the Orochi power but warned him to use it only as a last resort because it will probably destroy him.
10:41 Hey! That's not what happened in the game! Kyo and Iori killed him with their DMs! Goenitz tried to run away but failed. "Why is the wind not coming?!" Were his last words. Was that a retcon?
This vid was flawless Nabil u explained everything well and detailed. The Orochi Saga nailed everything with its presentation plot twist mood tone and atmosphere. This Arc was a masterpiece even tho I'm more of a NESTS person. This is a good way to recap ppl and especially letting newcomers know about the lore one time before 15 drops. Can't wait for NESTS the vid :)
neogeonow super duper godlike outstanding overall 101% of the story so far the orachi saga part I can't wait excited for the story so far part II nests saga. the story so far part III ash saga.
You forgot to mention a few things: Iori's riot of the blood which nearly killed Billy and Eiji in 95' Geese's curiosity as a result of this, enters 96 himself and sets up Billy, Mary, and Yamazaki to join 97, Yamazaki is a hakkeshu who denies Yashiro who asks him to join the Hakkeshu in reviving orochi. Overall, an amazing recap of the general history!
Hi there. Unfortunately I had to cut a lot of things to keep it at around 20mn. However all those details will be part of another series that i will announce soon.

@@NeoGeoNow No problem man. You make great content and this video feels like it came from a big fan.
I have a friend who is trying to get into KOF and this is a perfect way to start him off.
You should check out ShoryuGame, also. He's got a lot of great videos on KOF lore.

The end music "The Evening Sun And Moon" at 17:45 gave me chills when it started to play. ^_^

Awesome Job, my Brother.
KOF probably has the best lore in any fighting games. Consistency and world building is 👌
Mk as well
I love that they actually developed deep lore and character motives some even very realistic grounded ones too.
This is so beautiful. Thank you for giving my childhood game this treatment. Very happy to know about KOF lore.
7:21
Rugal is such a beast that Kyo unlocked infinite life during the fight 😂.
Nice video!
He used cheating mod
Also in 16:23
Amazing job. I personally love this Orochi Saga, is my favorite by a lot
In the end it all comes back to orochi story.... after the vers we get to see other god from orochi world. I cannot wait to see what will happen in kof 16
The mini scene when Mature jumps on the screen is taken from KOF Destiny
That was great Nabil. Very professional and informative. You should feel proud of yourself. Congrats. Keep em coming bro.
This is really well done. I'm so glad I found this. Huge KOF fan.
17:34 I'm feeling sad for Iori, he's sacrifice himself for Kyo..Iori looking to Kyo look a like he's said (Kyo this a chance for u to kill me and sealing Orochi, do it now my rival)

Thanks for explaining! I started playing KOF in 2018 but my first game was KOF97! 4 years from now, I'm still a fan!!
The editing is really cool, well done Nabil
This was a really cool and well put together video, for me Orochi Saga is and will always be one the top 10 greatest storylines ever in gaming
Hopefully, one day we get a true anime for KOF. The story is so well-written and underrated for a fighting game. It far eclipses whatever Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat have. There's over 100 relevant characters and they each have an in-depth backstory with no cliches.

You make everyone feels like KOF is alive once again, man. Awesome job! Can't wait to see more of that.

Thanks Nabil for producing great content over the years and all the patrons who are supporting you to create great SNK content.
Very nice! Really looking forward to King of Fighters 15!
Great work on this man! I may have seen other people break down the lore for KOF like rooflemonger and Shoryugame but you and the others really put your hearts to doing this!
So proud of you and it was totally worth the wait!
Hope this video could influence others into giving KOF a chance (if they haven't already thought about buying KOFXV).
The Orochi Saga is hands down my favorite KOF arc story wise. I hope they bring him back in KOF 15.
This is seriously stupendous the chronology, the editing, the accuracy and the lore depth.
Thank you so much for the kind words.
I played lots of KOF before on the Gameboy but I never understood the story. Now I'm playing kofas and I got curious about the lore. Thanks man!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great Job ! You have summarized every single point. Perfectly made !
Awesome video! Please made the part 2 of the timeline!
You missed out that goenitz is the reason when rugal had orochi power in his blood after they had a confrontation hence why rugal lost an eye but didn't die. Out of respect goenitz decided instead of killing him that rugal might be useful so he gave him the power to see if one day has can be a vessel for orochi resurrection :)
I Was Played KOF 97 IN 2008 On Ding Dong.. & I Had Defeated OROCHI .. I Felt Super Super Super Happy.. ❤❤🎮 KOF 🙏☺
Thanks, Nabil.
Can't wait for the NEST saga video.
I see, this is your secret work, and I must say, you did an incredible job Nabil!
Great work bro 💪🏽!!!
Fantastic! Waiting for NESTs Saga already!
Will be here sooner than you think!
@@NeoGeoNow and we even got Ash's saga too! Thank you so much. Excellent job, I'll send this to every KOF friend.
great vids always nabil!
Damn, I used to play this in late 90s, the memories, KOF 97 & 98 are the best
Great Job Nabil! Very well put together orochi saga video. This video is being shared everywhere and I'm glad to see your hard work paying off. Congratulations
Thank you Mark.
Great video! The only thing that is missing is how Rugal got his Orochi power in Kof'95 (Goenitz gave him the power)
I had to keep the episode around 20mn. I had that first included int eh script but had to cut it down. However i will be announcing a cool series after this one where we will even get into more details of the KOF lore. Stay Tuned!
Thank you for the great content and for helping understand KOF lore , please keep up the great work!
Great work buddy, enjoyed every bit of it ! Keep it up !
I'm hope to make a KoF movie and I need all the info I can get. Thanks for making this, you and Shoryu really helps
Superb! Cant wait for the part2👍👍👍Nabil you are rock!! Thanks
👏👏great video work. Awesome edit.! 🔥
The fact that CYS take the revenge on Iori is priceless LOL
Great recap!
This is awesome. I'm very familiar with the orochi saga since at that time i played kof a lot in the arcade....but I am very excited for the nests saga and ash saga, especially ash. I barely played any ash saga game so i dont know much about the lore.
That was fantastic thank you. So the fact that this Rock band team are back does theoretically mean Orochi is back for KOF XV? Also was Regal possed by Orochi what's the deal there?
Rugal was given a tiny bit of the orochi power by goenitz.
@@NeoGeoNow thank you. But we don't know why he was given this power?
@@BigALBoomer It seems Goenitz was testing out if someone not Hakeshu could handle that power.
@@BigALBoomer Rugal tried to steal same of the Orochi power but Goenitz, in a single attack, cut of Rugal s eye. Seeing that Rugal is strong enough to survive this attack Goenitz allowed Rugal to take same of the Orochi power but warned him to use it only as a last resort because it will probably destroy him.
@@ionutzfulger7347 nice one thank you
I didnt even knew chris was the white haired orochi guy. Gosh they look different.
Love this. Thank you.
Bro your narration is amazing. Dont stop making content!
Ecxellent video Nabil!
A lot of work, but the result is very good!
Man I'm reading the Kof 14 manga and I need to have my boy Shun'ei take of his seals and Iori is most likely the new host of Orochi
Hey! I was just scrolling my newsfeed and Destructoid and EventHubs have both done articles covering these KOF videos! That's awesome!
أشكرك أستاذي على الفيديو الجميل.
great editing, script and narration
Very good job thank you
10:41 Hey! That's not what happened in the game! Kyo and Iori killed him with their DMs! Goenitz tried to run away but failed. "Why is the wind not coming?!" Were his last words. Was that a retcon?
Thanks!
Thank you slade for the generous donations bro!
@@NeoGeoNow No problem man. It's good content.
'94 was a prelude to a much bigger story.
Great 👍 شكرا

Will work on a translation.
@@NeoGeoNow THAAANKS
Thank you for sharing this. I posted this up on the Neo-Geo thread on AtariAge for you. Keep up the great work. 8^)
Anthony..
This is superb!
The best saga in the KOF lore. The final battle in 97 against Orochi vs Sacred Treasures team is still epic proportions.
Would love for it to be an anime
You and me both brother!
Amazing cant wait for next chapters
That thumbnail...... Iori looks handsome
Beautiful KOF video.
DLC 1 and 2 Team Garou and Team South Town.
Gato,Bonne Jenet,and Rock Howard
Geese Howard,Billy Kane,and Yamazaki Ryuji
Though you had slept on the Boss Team in 96 heavily, still a top-notch video this is. Bravo 🎩
This is a great recap would love to watch more of your videos but i don't have time
We need more of this..
Thanks for getting me up to speed
Awesome video
Thank you! Worked so hard on these!
Hey man thanks a lot, like I commented in the FF vid, you're doing a great job for us newcomers
You are very welcome.
