Huh? If that was a joke I missed it.

I keep telling ya, akuma doesn’t do anything. He’s like the guy that flexes in front of the mirror. Has it…but can’t do anything with it.
Seriously bro…find.a.damn.hobby.
“I must have a BATTLE TO THE DEATH!!!”
“Yes yes we know…you’ve been saying that for the last 23 years…maybe longer. But you haven’t done dick about it. You keep going on and on like a broken record.”
“I AM DEATH!!!”
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/3b/Paris_Tuileries_Garden_Facepalm_statue.jpg
“Look, we fear death, we’re human alright? We love the thrill of battle as well…but we actually do something about it.”
“…”
“Don’t give me that look. I hear tekken has problems…they got “battle to the deaths.” strong guys too. Family issues…not sure if it’s your thing though.”
“Strong…opponents.”
“Oh my god…please…ok you know what? Just go…not even the devil gene could attract you.”
“Where’d he go? Oh…he actually left…finally, maybe now we can finish this story and get some ACTUAL progression.”
For as fearful of a fighter as Akuma is, he doesn’t go about showing it all that much.
He only kills unnamed fighters like the one in Adon’s Alpha 2 ending.
And trees.
And mountains.
And islands.
And submarines.
And plants.
And Bison…if you get a high enough score
And Gill…if you get a high enough score
Basically what I’m trying to say is that Akuma fucking sucks.

Huh? If that was a joke I missed it.
Well don’t try to Google it. It’s impossible.
I betcha any money the tress, subs and mountains just materialized anyway.
Nature 1 Akuma 0.

Yeah I saw that. Looks good. And no Not waifu. Sounds like another badass though. Could be a reason to get into KOF now…BUT I do have…someone else to look after and praise.
HAIL ARIA!!!
I don’t understand why, if they were going to do an all Kim family team, they wouldn’t just do Kim and his two sons.

Change of pace I guess? Represent the sexier side for a change? Plot reasons, note taking. Maybe they didn’t want a all male team?

Change of pace I guess?
They’ve never actually teamed him with his sons before.

Represent the sexier side for a change?
KoF is not exactly a game that’s hurting for fanservice.
I always thought a lot of fan inspired Ryu redesigns with him older and under the assumption he had some training or mentorship from Oro look bad ass. I really wish Capcom would go out on a limb and make their main costumes different. I mean look at all the positive feedback from the battle costumes for Hot Ryu, Chun and Cammy. Sigh…I reallllllyyyy was hoping SF5 would take place after SF3 so I could see how things developed. Here’s hoping SF6 is a reality

The mayor of Metro City who hates evil and loves justice, who is known in this game as “Macho Mike Haggar”. He was once a street fighter who specialized in wrestling maneuvers. He was recently appointed mayor because of his garnered respect, because he clamors with the blood of a fighter through he competes in the CWA as well as being a playable character in “Final Fight”. It’s in this same game that he attempts to rescue his daughter Jessica who has been abducted by the Mad Gear gang. The story of Super Muscle Bombers is set shortly before the events of “Final Fight”.
He appears during Rolento’s ending. His peace is disrupted when he is appalled at the sight of Rolento conquering Metro City with a set of armored vehicles attempting to establish his nation’s capital. He also appears in Guy’s Metro City stage spectating with Cody and former Mad Gear members.
Despite taking down the Mad Gear gang a year ago, because the city congress has become dominated by Shadaloo, the streets of Metro City are dangerous once more. In response to this, his gym which was once open is now closed. It also seems Cody has gotten into trouble lately, which has estranged his relationship with his now ex girlfriend Jessica. Only two years after he took his term in office as mayor of Metro City. In this game, he appears spectating in Guy’s stage, which is under the 22 Metro City overpass. He’s standing next to Axel along with the original members of Mad Gear.
His name only appears in Hugo’s ending as a member of the opposing tag team Hugo competes against. His tag team partner is listed as B. Widow (Black Widow from Super Muscle Bombers II)

The man with a mo hawk hairstyle and chest hair wearing red trunks. He bills himself fondly as “The Red Cyclone”. He blends a unique style which combines Russian and American pro wrestling, and he is proudly undefeated in the underground Russian wrestling circuit. Although, he is just as proud for the hardships of exile he must face from the world of pro wrestling for being too strong. He reluctantly searches the forests and mountains to find certain people who exhibit strength, and to challenge the worlds powerhouses to fulfill his desires. His signature move is the “Screw Pile Driver” which he has honed in intensity by training with bears. He doesn’t have a projectile and his movements are slow, his reach usually puts him at a disadvantage, but once the screw becomes fixed there’s no dreaming of a reversal, this thrilling Soviet has attracted many people. In his ending he is recognized by his home countries president for his contributions to the Perestroika (KGB), as he happily engages in a Cossack dance .
Since players use of the projectile has increased, "what I hate " has become rather numerous. His idea of true beauty is muscle beauty.
The professional wrestler who hails from Russia and has a love for vodka, but not steroids. His final boss is martial artist Ken Masters “United States”, which embodies the old rivalry of U.S.A vs Russia. During his ending he is acknowledged by a representative, and is encouraged to work diligently to represent the great Russian people in street fighting. Vowing to show the whole world Russian strength, he trains hard to create a more robust body for supporting the great people of Russia. Although, due to the poignant lack of funds he is forced to to wrestle bears as opponents at his mountain lodge.
The Russian hero. He is responding to a request from representatives of the motherland to take care of a new arising threat to Russia; Shadaloo. During his ending he sneaks into the Shadaloo base to destroy the Psycho Drive, and gets acquainted with E. Honda who is there for the same reasons, and together they accomplish the task. After cooperating with E. Honda he is satisfied to gain a “new comrade” in this game. A new character appears in this game as well, the endearing R. Mika, who’s greatest desire is to become a pupil of his during her story.
Haggar and Gief’s bios at the same time? Beautiful.

If Oro ever uttered those words, a Raging Demon will be coming his way.
I have a feeling Oro would most likely ignore the attack…since it sucks at killing people in general. Well, except Goutetsu.
inb4 it’s revealed Goutetsu just died out of shame for what his student would become…
Poor Haggar. He destroys Mad Gear only to have Shadowloo bribe the city Congress to their will. Looks like he’ll have to run for president if he wants to make a real difference.

I wasn’t aware Shadaloo had been involved with anything in Metro City til I translated that entry. It’s interesting that you never see Haggar going after Shadaloo even though he and his precious city were under M.Bison’s heel the whole time under his watch, and on top of that he had to close his gym because of it. It’s all the more reason to have Haggar in a Street Fighter game, you already have a coherent story of some tragedy that somehow links to Shadaloo.
Bison done fukt with da mayor of EARTH
Haggar’s gonna piledriver one of those PSAs on him.
Don’t know if posted before, but here goes:
Street Fighter ENTIRE Storyline in 3 Minutes! (Street Fighter Animation)

I don’t understand why, if they were going to do an all Kim family team, they wouldn’t just do Kim and his two sons.
KoF don’t age their characters. 14 games in and Athena is still a high school student. Not going to expect for Kim’s sons to be playable in a KoF game when they’re still kids in that timeline.

Honestly they could do the same thing with Mike from SF1 and just say he is actually Boxer (Balrog) from the main series, but they specifically keep the two separate. Even today when you have artwork joking about how he resembles boxer. But for Andore and Hugo they joined the two stories, and this is evident in Hugo’s USF4 arcade when he talks about missing his mom and how the members of Mad Gear want him to join. So Hugo and Andore just became the same character recently. I assume that Hugo is Andore Jr being that he’s in pink and his brother Andore is the one in red.
I was under the assumption this was reversed (Jr is red and Andore is pink), at least that’s what comes up in a Google search… unless I’m mistaken I think the Internet has the Andores mixed up.
赤い服 を 着 た 本物 の ほか 黄 • 青灰色 の 類似品 が おり 、 さ ら に ピンク色 の 服 を 着 た 弟 、 「 アンドレ Jr 」 まで 存在
The real one is dressed in red with the addition of lookalikes wearing; yellow, gray, blue, and pink who is the brother “Andore Jr.”
I forgot to do gray but you can figure it out by process of elimination.
http://i.imgur.com/VsDp3Gl.png
Andore = Pink, Andore Jr = Red, F(ather) Andore = Yellow, G(randpa) Andore = Blue, U(ncle) Andore = Gray.
Internet is right, book is wrong. This is taken directly from the arcade build of the game and, before you ask, I have checked and the names are consistent across both the Japan and World builds of the arcade game.
In addition here is a picture from Japan super famicom book:

BTW I spotted this just now while looking at fighting street, I think they are new to the site. The words are small so might be hard to read but there is definitely story stuff there (says so right at the top)

If it’s too hard to read I could try blowing it up in photoshop but it’ll still be low res.
