Don't worry. To be fair it was so weird and convoluted to execute it's no wonder so many people forget it exists. If someday you do a hardest to execute supers in the Fatal Fury series I expect that one to appear.
Dude, I legit did not know how many traits Yuri shares with Akuma until you pointed it out. I thought only her super move was meant a reference to him. Holy s**t, that can’t be mere coincidence. Thanks for another brilliant list, Shoryugame.
I think was also due to the fact that when MvC was running around, Sakura was also able to do the Raging Demon when she took the form of the Satsui No Hado because it's obvious Sakura is the counterpart to Yuri.
1. Orochi Chris turning into Orochi 2. Orochi Shermie striking herself with lightning was hilarious. 3. Leona's Orochi super from 98 where she jams dynamite into you with her mouth, flip back, screams and detonates it. 4. Leona's soul absorption or whatever she's doing with the jump over super in KOF 99. 5. Angel's People's Elbow in 02.
According to SNK, Yuri is a genius. She can imitate any moves she sees and adds her own twist to it. She even quickly learned and mastered their family fighting style just by watching her father and brother who trained years for it which makes them both hesitant to allow Yuri to join fighting competitions as they thought she will only make their fighting style look mediocre and pathetic to those watching. Well she proved them wrong.
Well she may have, who knows. Considering her personality, she actually likes to run away from home and roam a lot. This is specially when she has quarrels and misunderstandings with her brother and father when it comes to bringing her to trainings(she doesn't like to train and sweating a lot) or KOF tournament matters(they don't allow her to join their team so she goes on to other teams instead). Sometimes she ends up in places/situations accidentally or being lost while traveling alone. Considering that she must have met and interact a lot of different people. It may not be Akuma himself, maybe someone with the knowledge, former practitioner or currently training with the said martial art and so on. In some KOF games she even has a Tatsumaki kick, a Shin ShoryuKen(she named it Shin Chou Upper) and even a Denjin Shinkuu Hadouken(this one she called Denjin Haoh Shoku Ken).
@@Moriatti if CVS 2 is canon then it will make sense. The tournament was hosted by both Robert Garcia and Ken Master's Company bringing different fighters together.
Honorable mention to Tung Fu Rue doing Master Roshi's Fire Mountain Kamehameha in KOF XI, as well as the various random endings of Kensou's Meat Bun Or Onion super.
9:10 Jennet did have that move in Garou. It was harder to perform, though, since instead of being a counter it required to push three buttons in sequence during a successful just-defend.
Trivias #1. Kula's Super Special Moves in KOF 2002/UM, entitled *"La Cachora"* , is a reference to Japanese women's pro wrestling team *"Las Cachorras Orientales"* , who acted as heel personas and had a move where they would pose over an injured opponent, showing off to the crowd. #2. When Kyo's *Mushiki* appeared in KoF 97, its alias was set to *"Sanjingi no Ichi"* (Three Divine Art No.1 ). In the original SNK era , the developers comment that the entire *'Sanjingi/Three Divine Art'* , including *Sanjingi no Ni* (Three Divine Arts No.2) and *Sanjingi no San* (Three Divine Arts No.3) was described as 'Mushiki' and that they were all *Kusanagi-ryu kobujutsu techniques.* *However* for some reason in KOF 2003, Iori can do Sanjingi no Ni and Chizuru can do Sanjingi no San despite they are not from the Kusanagi clan. It is most likely a retcon the SNK Playmore staff did, remember many of the OG SNK staff weren't in that era. Thanks for reading! ^_^
I love how there's so many layers to the Ryo VS Dan jokes. First Art of Fighting comes out, then Dan comes into existence in retaliation take a jab at Ryo, Robert, and later Yuri. Then in retaliation *to the retailation*, SNK had Yuri take several jabs at Ryu and Akuma, even giving her a Raging Demon. It's like both parties were constantly trying to one-up eachother, and I find that hillarious. It's gotten to the point to where it's kinda circled around to being homages to one another more than just jokes in a weird way. Like, SFV Dan has even more Ryo DNA than usual, and that's used in a way to make him unironically cool (Not counting his story-).
I was in 2001, in arcade machines when i noticed the "Shin yuri satsu" and think... "mmm This look familiar.... no way!!!!". That was a lot of surprise, because in 2001, internet wasnt so popular and movelist were usually found in magazines (if you have the money being a kid, to buy one).
Dude, this list just proves how awesome snk is with their lore. They don't let most things get lost! And shout out for Shoryu keeping track of it all. I had no idea about Yuri's raging demon and instantly had to look it up lol. That was awesome. Thanks for the video!
I would probably say K9999’s ultimate caught me off guard because of the skin and metal parts of the arm are revealed. It looks quite disgusting but also pretty crazy as well.
Yep. The fact about K9999 is that he is a bio android (think about Cell from DBZ) that's why his Super shows the skin and metal parts of his arm. Unlike K' and Kula, who are humans whose DNA was modified by NESTS, K9999 was made from the ground up.
@MegaNinten 007 I never thought of that comparison of perfect cell. Though, the fact he’s kind of similar to cell makes a ton of sense with his arm and body. But it must be painful for him releasing that mess of arm when he wants to use it. But again, someone like that doesn’t care about releasing his crazy side. But unlike kula and k’ who were humans that have experiment by NEST the results for them work. While the results for k9999, was just something else entirely because he was made rather than being a modified human life k’ and kula. Is that right? Sorry, if I type too much.
Another thing to point out for Iori's 15 climax vs Orochi team is his eyes don't turn red. As far as supers that caught me off guard, first one that comes to mind is wild Iori's version of maiden masher.
14:35 fun fact: The level 3 version is slightly stronger(not by much, it’s like 2 more damage) due to the poison damage that takes effect during the super
Angel's climax caught me off guard when I first saw it. I really wasn't expecting a motorboat. 😅 In fact, most of her supers where she mimics The Rock's taunts which surprised me.
Finally! Someone who appreciates the great Chang! His DM in KOF XIV is epic. Leona approves this video! Speaking of KOF XIV, Mui Mui's Dragon Punch is also one of the best! That's why she is the Dragon Gal 🐲🐉 In her series, she has a Flying Nimbus/Kintōun and has a Super Saiyan transformation. I am not kidding xD Makes me wish her transformation was one of her Desperation Moves. Unlike Love Heart, Mui Mui can return in a new game because SNK still owns her. I would like to see her in a team with Kensou.
@@TonyTheTGR I like Xiangfei, she was one of my mains in KOF 2001 ^_^ Love her in game winner art in that game, one of my favorites xD But still, I would prefer to see Mui Mui in the Psycho Soldier Team
Xiao Lon's Poison Kiss Super. Not only you didn't expect that Super but also it fits with her bio. Xiao Lon's entire body became tainted with deadly poison (her bloodtype is Poison) to the point that anything she cooks will always be poisoned. Poor gal 😢 Speaking of Maximum Impact characters, many of Hyena's Desperation Move are unique. The one where he faints his death, his parody version of Oswald's JOKER Super or his Level 3 Super where he tries to do a punch but he is so clumsy that ended up falling but still does damage to the opponent, in fact it is the most damaging Desperation Move in MI2/Regulation A
Since you asked which one caught me of guard, here's mine : Actually there were two supers which I 'accidentally' triggered while messing with the keys and both were from vanilla 2002 First : Iori's HSDM, Shiki Homurahotogi, I was damn surprised seeing the screen going red and Iori leaping towards my opponent grabbing and blasting a fire pillar xD Second : K9999s HSDM, Kore Wa Maru de...!! As iconic as his Power losing control SDM is, this full screen super was phenomenal and this one surprised me cause of the weird input it has if you know what I mean xD
I remember getting really surprised with Xiangfei's grab special (the 103 hits one),I was like "Wth,what happened",and surprise hit me once more on 2002Um when I got freaking 2002 hits....Xiangfei needs to come back to KOF, she's so overpowered to be forgotten.
Goro Daimon has always been an interesting character. The way his savage supers contrast with his humble attitude have always given him some charisma that could potentially rival that of Yasuhiro. My favourite example is his kofxiv climax super, where he finally opens his eyes, grows gigantic (like Hulk) and delivers an insane original version of a gamma wave!!
7:15 "Long Ranged Massage" 🤣😂 K9999's Fleshy Arm will always be his most iconic Super and also one of the most gruesome. If you listen to his voice when he does that Super in 2001, he sounds like he is feeling pain. In 2002, he sounds more angrier like he is getting used of his power. His original seiyuu did an amazing job which btw was the same voice actor for Yusuke Uremashi from Yu Yu Hakusho As much as I like his redesign I prefer K9999's original look and also his psychic powers.
In KOF XV Kyo also have a cool climax details when fighting against orochi team, in the climax he will say "the fist of the kusanagi" a little reference of his iconic line from the old game.
Actually, i think she had the Air Fireball before Akuma even existed, but some of her other moves are totally a reference to SF shotos, like having Shin shoryu, raging demon and her climax in 14 and 15 kinda resembles one of Dan special moves in SF4.
Shoryu! Great video! I also think Xiangfei's HSDM could've been included given the fact she jumps into the background à la Fatal Fury. Shoryu, why don't you make a video of your favorite KOF moves? It'd be great to see your opinion!
I know most people hate Maximum Impact, but it had Hyena and literally one of the most unique and surprising ults in KOF history; his energy bar goes to ZERO momentarily and he fakes being dead. If the other player approaches him they get hit pretty hard, lol. If you time it right, you can make people think they won and catch them offguard with it
I'll have to mention Iori's 2002 HSDM. Like another commenter said, seeing the whole screen go red without even a super flash as Iori leaps across the screen is crazy. A shame the super doesn't have much more to it, though.
At No.4, the fact that censoring Yamazaki's knife in his Lv3 Drill makes it funnier because yes, random object thrown go haha in the brain; but the "what's the object gonna be" for players using him is part of it The other part is that there is actually a hidden mechanic in XV where apparently, when you combo ending with Drill Lv3, there is actually an execute versus Lv4. Execute meaning that it would K.O. whenever the combo ends instead of just leaving with tiny bit of life left. That's why I appreciate Lv3 Drill now even though it took away the knife variations in the old KoF games.
Zero's (unimpressive) SDM in a nutshell: BURSTS TWO BARS SPLITS SOUL FROM BODY PHYSICALLY ATTACK THE SOUL, NOT THE BODY (this is where you messed up, old man) REINTEGRATES THE BODY "oh, it's only 15%, I've taken harder licks from a puppy dog"
Athena's underrated super is Super Phoenix Infinity in XI!! Athena's always been kinda mid to me, but XI's LDM made me MAIN HER in that game!! Also, shout-out to Oswald's LDM as my second favorite, being similar to Krizalid's Desperate End and, whether you know it or not... YET ANOTHER ANIME REFERENCE!! :D
Iori (Revenge of the Eight Maidens) and Leona's (Revolver Spark) LVL 3 in '98 caught me off guard. '98UM was my introduction to the franchise when it dropped on the PS2, so I didn't know the lore at all. The game only got better for me when I learned that the state the were in when they performed those were unlockable characters.
Chang Koehan super reminds me of Obelix in Asterix comic book when he throw a spear so hard literally comeback to him after traveling across the world, pretty convenient since they both super strong fat boys
Chang's Finisher Move was inspired from C. Jack from Street Fighter EX wherein Jack Swings Baseball to the opponent sending them flying except it has planet to bump and then lands in explosion
The most surprising one for me is Terry: "Are you okay?" "Oh how kind are you, checking opponent condition, since you ask nicely I'll reply that I'm O-" "BUSTER WOLF!!!" 😫
Some supers that aren't on this list that shocked me: 1) Chang 02UM: Tekkyuu Daisekai: Already The World, 02UM made it exactly like the Capcom Jojo The World! 2) K' 02: Crimson Star Road: I never though much of the MAX2 until they added that black and white effect! 2) Clark: 97: Running Three (MAX): Just hte pure length of the the move was so crazy. 3) Ralf 97: Galactica Phantom: such a manly move. 4) Billy 95: Chokaenshippukon (MAX): kills with just the move 5) Benimaru 95: Raikouken (MAX): kills with just the move part 2
Additionally, Kyo also gains a secret detail in 15 against the Orochi Team with his climax. He switches to the Mushiki phrase, "Miseteyaru, Kusanagi no kobushi wo!".
Very good shoryu im glad you re back to top tens i missed them , next maybe you will do top 10 looking stages , top 10 endings(both canon or not) top 10 kof games (based on story) and just like most 10 annoying zoners don't forget the other fighting styles , peace
IMO, O. Shermie's should be top 3 or even 1#. Her Super is the most unique one in all of KOF. It goes from a kiss to a nice shot of clouded sky throwing a thunder at the opponent or at her.
Fun fact about Athena wearing a bikini in her super: in the mobile game KOF '98UM OL, Athena reveals that she wears a bikini in that super because she relies on photosynthesis to gather energy so her outfit would just get in the way.
Honestly, the concept of Xanadus pretty funny if you think about it. Just a ex-crime boss who lost his mind after being in solitary confinement for 20+ years, being picked for a global martial arts tournament for his former reputation alone.
I got into KOF circa 2004, so the crazy Yamazaki SD was one of my earlier experiences with it and it was so wild it kept me around. I think you can do it in KOF 2003 as well but the game doesn't like to read the inputs well enough to get it reliably.
For me both Iori’s KOF14 and 15 Super Climax’s because that temporary Orochi Iori moment even the older games any of them that showcase Wild Iori, also Leona in last 2 games cause we see the Red Hair of Leona in her Super Climax’s also showing that she has some control of the Orochi power. In the 2002 Dream Match Chris becoming Orochi is really up there. Igniz’s Brutal God Project Climax move is surprising when you fight him as a boss in 2001 because of how much ridiculous damage it takes practically 85% of your health it’s an amazing looking attack. I think Vice’s is pretty outrageous and shocking. Tung Fu Rue in KOF14 being a giant Master Roshi, and Mui Mui doing a Kamehameha and that Climax move on your list. Yes Xanadu is always strange and really weird Climax move even his dialogue with Robert Garcia whom is creeped out and Mature and I LOVE Mature’s reaction🤣🤣. But I didn’t even know about the Raging Yuri that would certainly have surprised me if she used it on me or I saw it on her Command List and executed it. Also Omega Rugal in KOF15 Super Climax because I want to see everyone’s face reaction when he blasts that gigantic Kaiser Wave at them some the looks are priceless😂😂.
The one that got me was when I played with K' for the first time and he does the super where he holds the flame in his hand and when u let go he fly across the stage with a flaming punch 👊
Brilliant listed video with awesome sense of humor through out the video from jokes to naming the moves 😂 and what Shoryu think is CUTE then it is cute no doubt it 😎.
here is something that NOT very much people knows about Kula's special when you see her clapping Repeat the special move , you are going to notice that it does a little bit more of damage , that is of course IF your timing is right and PERFECT every time she claps only then you are going to see if it works or not
@@ShoryuGame Yeah, not a Yuri fan but she was a living meme in 2001. pretty sure there re other moves she stole from the Shotos. Also SMASH in KOFUM2002 could be also Ryuso Donky Kick from SF3.
My favorite finale moves are Iori's Crimson flames, Vice's Cannibalistic Unorthodox move (Vice is Hannibal Lecter. Lol.) and Chris's summoning his Stand form...uh..I mean his Yamata no Orochi form move. (Yamata no Orochi is Chri's Stand and Chris is the Stand user. Lol.)
Coolas super is great to stop come backs in these games I used it to keep people from getting any good damage on me. Kof is all about the battery and the anchor.
Hey man, great video! One suggestion. That sound effect when you move to the next number on the list has a TON of bass in it and it's kind of hard on your ears if you're using headphones.
I love your list! Great details! Just wanted to share that I find Tung's super with the clapping hands very similar to Netero's attack from Hunter x Hunter!
El especial “the flames lives on” representa el como Iori se ha liberado de la maldición de Orochi al demostrar que el es diferente a sus antepasados, por eso las flamas vuelven a su estado puro, Iori ya no está maldito.
I like to much your vídeos. What do You think about a top with Water power charácters??? I remember (because the list Is short): Rain (MK) Sogetsu/ Suija/ Darly (Samurai Shodown) Erick (World Héroes.... Ok: Water & Ice) CAP. Kidd (World Héroes) Mezu (Kizuna Encounter.... Ice & Water) Armaggon (TMNT Tournamet Fighters). Greetings 👋.
When he was taking about iori I thought It would've been the one where he starts cutting his opponent with his hands while they're lying on the ground almost looking like a cannibal
what took me off guard the first time i saw.... Galactica Phanthom, in 97... what the hell the dude doing crouching like that... 1 second later... there goes my match...
I said that Jenet's super wasn't in Garou, that was actually a mistake. She did have it in that game as well. Sorry about that!
It's ok
Don't worry. To be fair it was so weird and convoluted to execute it's no wonder so many people forget it exists. If someday you do a hardest to execute supers in the Fatal Fury series I expect that one to appear.
unacceptable. delete the entire channel.
Yeah bro,and it's the best weapon.
Shoe is da key🤣🤣🤣.
Well, it wasn't a counter, and it was waaaay worse because if the opponent was airborne it would not hit fully.

Sometimes she ends up in places/situations accidentally or being lost while traveling alone. Considering that she must have met and interact a lot of different people. It may not be Akuma himself, maybe someone with the knowledge, former practitioner or currently training with the said martial art and so on. In some KOF games she even has a Tatsumaki kick, a Shin ShoryuKen(she named it Shin Chou Upper) and even a Denjin Shinkuu Hadouken(this one she called Denjin Haoh Shoku Ken).
@@ShoryuGame That time that Robert hosted a King of Fighters and was enough of a chad to invite the Street Fighter cast.
@@Moriatti if CVS 2 is canon then it will make sense. The tournament was hosted by both Robert Garcia and Ken Master's Company bringing different fighters together.

In KoF 15, you stop Yamazaki's max at lvl3 because it does more damage than the lvl4 due to the scaling caused by the number of hits
I love the Yamazaki fan-boying, he really is a marvelous and unique character that is underappreciated.
Was actually more shocked when Yuri pulled out Ryu's Shin Shoryuken the Shin Go Satsu was just a bonus to me.

Actually, i think she had the Air Fireball before Akuma even existed, but some of her other moves are totally a reference to SF shotos, like having Shin shoryu, raging demon and her climax in 14 and 15 kinda resembles one of Dan special moves in SF4.
Wasn't Dan's special move was based off Yuri?
I'm just glad my girl Vice gets another shout out! Because she is easily the absolute history's number one coolest cannibal in video game history😁💯
Ok I've played a decent amount of KoF 2k1 and I have never, ever knew that Yuri had a Raging Demon. I wonder if the motion for it is still the same.
It is.
Shoryu! Great video! I also think Xiangfei's HSDM could've been included given the fact she jumps into the background à la Fatal Fury. Shoryu, why don't you make a video of your favorite KOF moves? It'd be great to see your opinion!
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll consider it.
I know most people hate Maximum Impact, but it had Hyena and literally one of the most unique and surprising ults in KOF history; his energy bar goes to ZERO momentarily and he fakes being dead. If the other player approaches him they get hit pretty hard, lol. If you time it right, you can make people think they won and catch them offguard with it
B. Jennet's climax is her 3rd super in Garou: MOTW. It can only be triggered during "JUST DEFEND".
I'll have to mention Iori's 2002 HSDM. Like another commenter said, seeing the whole screen go red without even a super flash as Iori leaps across the screen is crazy. A shame the super doesn't have much more to it, though.
There is a cute interaction you can do with it though. If you use the move on Kyo, Iori will groan and then scream Kyo's name.
At No.4, the fact that censoring Yamazaki's knife in his Lv3 Drill makes it funnier because yes, random object thrown go haha in the brain; but the "what's the object gonna be" for players using him is part of it
The other part is that there is actually a hidden mechanic in XV where apparently, when you combo ending with Drill Lv3, there is actually an execute versus Lv4. Execute meaning that it would K.O. whenever the combo ends instead of just leaving with tiny bit of life left.
That's why I appreciate Lv3 Drill now even though it took away the knife variations in the old KoF games.
For me k9999 is the most surprising lol because I thought it was a Akira reference
#Like!! Can't get enough of your content. Any plans on a top 10 strongest characters in KoF (from a lore perspective/No bosses included)??
Thank you so much! I'll think about your suggestion!
✌
Great video, as usual. I know it may be low-hanging fruit, but my choice would be XIII K's Chain Drive
PS: I want my boy Chang in KOF XV!
Zero's (unimpressive) SDM in a nutshell:
BURSTS TWO BARS
SPLITS SOUL FROM BODY
PHYSICALLY ATTACK THE SOUL, NOT THE BODY (this is where you messed up, old man)
REINTEGRATES THE BODY
"oh, it's only 15%, I've taken harder licks from a puppy dog"
Athena's underrated super is Super Phoenix Infinity in XI!! Athena's always been kinda mid to me, but XI's LDM made me MAIN HER in that game!!
Also, shout-out to Oswald's LDM as my second favorite, being similar to Krizalid's Desperate End and, whether you know it or not... YET ANOTHER ANIME REFERENCE!! :D
It's a very short and subtle super, but I think Whip's desperation climax in 2002UM was pretty surprising.
It definitely is.
Iori (Revenge of the Eight Maidens) and Leona's (Revolver Spark) LVL 3 in '98 caught me off guard. '98UM was my introduction to the franchise when it dropped on the PS2, so I didn't know the lore at all. The game only got better for me when I learned that the state the were in when they performed those were unlockable characters.
This guy knows. Is it really a DM if you're not screaming in primal fury?
@@--delirious--4136 Right? It sold me on those characters! Particularly Leona.
Chang Koehan super reminds me of Obelix in Asterix comic book when he throw a spear so hard literally comeback to him after traveling across the world, pretty convenient since they both super strong fat boys
Man.. I gotta jump back into KOF 15 I'm so backup up
Love your video! It’s always cool to learn new stuff in kof. I appreciate your channel Shoryugames!
My pleasure!
@ShoryuGame don’t mention it boss man!
Yuri needs the Raging Demon to be her secondary SDM in the next KOF
Great and interesting list! I never knew Yuri had her own freaking raging demon lol
Wait, Where is Benimaru's Gen'ei Hurricane from 99'??
Wait Dan is Robert and Ryo?
Yep.
@@ShoryuGame you know what it makes sence
Chang's Finisher Move was inspired from C. Jack from Street Fighter EX wherein Jack Swings Baseball to the opponent sending them flying except it has planet to bump and then lands in explosion
The most surprising one for me is Terry:
"Are you okay?"
"Oh how kind are you, checking opponent condition, since you ask nicely I'll reply that I'm O-"
"BUSTER WOLF!!!"
😫
B. Jennet's chancla was in Garou.
Some supers that aren't on this list that shocked me:
1) Chang 02UM: Tekkyuu Daisekai: Already The World, 02UM made it exactly like the Capcom Jojo The World!
2) K' 02: Crimson Star Road: I never though much of the MAX2 until they added that black and white effect!
2) Clark: 97: Running Three (MAX): Just hte pure length of the the move was so crazy.
3) Ralf 97: Galactica Phantom: such a manly move.
4) Billy 95: Chokaenshippukon (MAX): kills with just the move
5) Benimaru 95: Raikouken (MAX): kills with just the move part 2
Additionally, Kyo also gains a secret detail in 15 against the Orochi Team with his climax. He switches to the Mushiki phrase, "Miseteyaru, Kusanagi no kobushi wo!".
i think the most important similarity between Chiz and Iori is their voice has another background voice. Kyo is a voice line change
Very good shoryu im glad you re back to top tens i missed them , next maybe you will do top 10 looking stages , top 10 endings(both canon or not) top 10 kof games (based on story) and just like most 10 annoying zoners don't forget the other fighting styles , peace
Thank you for all the suggestions!
That Xanadu dude had enough Ayahuasca, also the devs while making him and the super
La chancla is the ultimate weapon, even gods fear it.
IMO, O. Shermie's should be top 3 or even 1#. Her Super is the most unique one in all of KOF. It goes from a kiss to a nice shot of clouded sky throwing a thunder at the opponent or at her.
Liked the video, BTW.
Thanks! Yes, Shermie's super is certainly "shocking".
I agree.
Ororchi Shermie's HSDM in 2002 (UM) is not very useful but it has such a great presentation.
*Ten ni yudane mashou...shin naru sabaki yo!* 🌫⚡
Fun fact about Athena wearing a bikini in her super: in the mobile game KOF '98UM OL, Athena reveals that she wears a bikini in that super because she relies on photosynthesis to gather energy so her outfit would just get in the way.
So she becomes a plant!
Imagine, Yamazaki hit Jhun with the Athena poster lmao
I want to see that!
Janet did have that suoer in garou, it was a level 2 super and you have to do A, B,C,D in the window of a guard cancel during a just defend
Kyo's asobewa owarida in 2001 was very surprising to me , it was so iori like that I didn't believe my eyes
Mine would be.....
1) Ralf's Jet Gatling in KoF 13.
2) Mai's UDM in 2002
3) Yuri's Shin Shoryuken.
Honestly, the concept of Xanadus pretty funny if you think about it. Just a ex-crime boss who lost his mind after being in solitary confinement for 20+ years, being picked for a global martial arts tournament for his former reputation alone.
When they said that Leona respect "real power", they weren't kidding.
In fact, she finds Chang cute.
As you can see in her win quote against Chang in KOF 2002
I got into KOF circa 2004, so the crazy Yamazaki SD was one of my earlier experiences with it and it was so wild it kept me around. I think you can do it in KOF 2003 as well but the game doesn't like to read the inputs well enough to get it reliably.
For me both Iori’s KOF14 and 15 Super Climax’s because that temporary Orochi Iori moment even the older games any of them that showcase Wild Iori, also Leona in last 2 games cause we see the Red Hair of Leona in her Super Climax’s also showing that she has some control of the Orochi power. In the 2002 Dream Match Chris becoming Orochi is really up there. Igniz’s Brutal God Project Climax move is surprising when you fight him as a boss in 2001 because of how much ridiculous damage it takes practically 85% of your health it’s an amazing looking attack. I think Vice’s is pretty outrageous and shocking. Tung Fu Rue in KOF14 being a giant Master Roshi, and Mui Mui doing a Kamehameha and that Climax move on your list. Yes Xanadu is always strange and really weird Climax move even his dialogue with Robert Garcia whom is creeped out and Mature and I LOVE Mature’s reaction🤣🤣. But I didn’t even know about the Raging Yuri that would certainly have surprised me if she used it on me or I saw it on her Command List and executed it. Also Omega Rugal in KOF15 Super Climax because I want to see everyone’s face reaction when he blasts that gigantic Kaiser Wave at them some the looks are priceless😂😂.
Those are some nice supers! Thanks for mentioning them.
B. Jenet remind me of the ASDFmovie skit, "There's something on your face, it was PAIN!"
The one that got me was when I played with K' for the first time and he does the super where he holds the flame in his hand and when u let go he fly across the stage with a flaming punch 👊
Man for me its shingo's super when he looks in his notebook 🤣🤣🤣🤣 but I appreciate da knowledge on mui mui,I knew she was my main for a reason 💪🏾😎
Brilliant listed video with awesome sense of humor through out the video from jokes to naming the moves 😂 and what Shoryu think is CUTE then it is cute no doubt it 😎.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it!
I think the voice actor who voiced K9999 is the voice of Tetsou in Akira.
He is indeed!
here is something that NOT very much people knows about Kula's special
when you see her clapping Repeat the special move , you are going to notice that it does a little bit more of damage , that is of course IF your timing is right and PERFECT every time she claps only then you are going to see if it works or not
for as long as i've been playing KOF and stuff since the 90's i've never ever seen that yuri raging demon lol.
You think you'd ever do favorite duos? We gotta remember there's iconic tag teams before the trios sometimes. I'd love to hear your favorites.
For me it was Iori dragging his opponent to the ground and looking over his shoulder at the screen before going ballistic.
I like that one too!
Yuri ALSO has the Shin Shou RYUKEN,Ryus super, u know the move she dose first to cancel in the Raging Demon
You're right! And Sakura's overhead too.
@@ShoryuGame Yeah, not a Yuri fan but she was a living meme in 2001. pretty sure there re other moves she stole from the Shotos. Also SMASH in KOFUM2002 could be also Ryuso Donky Kick from SF3.
11:58 "tenmei ka?" Not eureka. Basically he's like "Is this fate/Is this my destiny?"
My favorite finale moves are Iori's Crimson flames, Vice's Cannibalistic Unorthodox move (Vice is Hannibal Lecter. Lol.) and Chris's summoning his Stand form...uh..I mean his Yamata no Orochi form move. (Yamata no Orochi is Chri's Stand and Chris is the Stand user. Lol.)
KOF2001 May Lee's Rider Kick. Such a magnificent move.
Man, I miss playing as Foxy. They need to bring her back.
Having an EX Yuri with her 2001/2002um moves would be fantastic
Coolas super is great to stop come backs in these games I used it to keep people from getting any good damage on me. Kof is all about the battery and the anchor.
Hey man, great video!
One suggestion. That sound effect when you move to the next number on the list has a TON of bass in it and it's kind of hard on your ears if you're using headphones.
Noted! I'll keep that in mind next time.
Yuri also has Denjin Hadouken in 01, if I'm not mistaken.
2003, actually
B.jenet has that super in motw. It's much harder to pull off cause you need to do the command while blocking.
I love your list! Great details! Just wanted to share that I find Tung's super with the clapping hands very similar to Netero's attack from Hunter x Hunter!
El especial “the flames lives on” representa el como Iori se ha liberado de la maldición de Orochi al demostrar que el es diferente a sus antepasados, por eso las flamas vuelven a su estado puro, Iori ya no está maldito.
About Iori & Chizuru having different voices, Kyo also has. Abeit it's just different dialogue.
This was a hilarious video! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The first time I saw Ralf's galactica phantom taking almost 100% of his rivals hp... 🤯
Now I get it, why Leona give salute pose to Chang..🤣
MuiMui Climax is actually another reference to Goku's Dragon Punch special in the Budokai Tenkaichi series
I like to much your vídeos. What do You think about a top with Water power charácters???
I remember (because the list Is short):
Rain (MK)
Sogetsu/ Suija/ Darly (Samurai Shodown)
Erick (World Héroes.... Ok: Water & Ice)
CAP. Kidd (World Héroes)
Mezu (Kizuna Encounter.... Ice & Water)
Armaggon (TMNT Tournamet Fighters).
Greetings 👋.
Thank you! The list is short as you said. But adding the ice power to it, it may work
@@ShoryuGame I hope You do the video. Greetings 👋
Foxy has this move in 2001 as well
When he was taking about iori I thought It would've been the one where he starts cutting his opponent with his hands while they're lying on the ground almost looking like a cannibal
what took me off guard the first time i saw.... Galactica Phanthom, in 97... what the hell the dude doing crouching like that... 1 second later... there goes my match...
Damn snk always had so much charisma in their games and characters.i always considered that kof place is among the big 3 : tekken,sf and mk.🤜💥🤛
all supers are very good ..... but B.Jenet have "La Chancla"
Isn't Kyo's dialogue different when performed in the Orochi Team too? Or It's just me idk.
