THE KING OF FIGHTERS XIII
QUOTE & ENDING FAQ
by Kailu Lantis
Greetings to one and all!
Welcome to the epitome of random quotes and SNK Engrish tomfoolery that you
could probably check out on YouTube (but probably not) featured in this
document of nonsensical blabbering from your resident dweebenheimer, Kailu
Lantis! As usual, we shall look over the written translation of all the
winning quotes and endings of the latest installment in the legendary KOF
series, The King of Fighters XIII! Can you believe that we now have pre-match
dialogues now, following in the tradition of...SNK vs. Capcom Chaos? Huh, who
knew? Anyway, that's a load of info to handle! This game has earned some rave
reviews for its' neat gameplay features and exquisite animation...too bad the
netcode is ass in the console versions, though (SNK Playmore doesn't seem to
learn in that regard), but I recommed taking a look into it, and even moreso
if you can take a look at some tournament footage...that stuff is real!
But if you have been going strong since 1994, then you already knew that!
ARE YOU OK?

their attention towards your incriminating ass. I heard Geese Howard is
ticked because he was left out of ANOTHER KOF, and he wants to paint his house
with someone's blood! Just saying, though!

3.- Cutscenes/endings
4.- Credits
We will start out with the pre-fight dialogues between characters in
Arcade mode, which includes all except the ones between the DLC characters (EX
Kyo, EX Iori, and Mr. Karate), basically because you can NEVER fight against
them in Arcade mode. There is also no dialogue between the two bosses (True
Saiki and Dark Ash) simply for the fact that there is no boss code. Then we
will continue with the win quotes of every character (that is also personal for
every other character), to finally end with the cutscenes and endings for every
team. Notice that in the case of some characters (Billy Kane, Saiki, and the
DLC characters), their endings only consist of a simple picture at the end of
the credits (and only if you beat Dark Ash with the aforementioned characters).
I won't even DARE get into Story mode, though, because that's a WHOLE different
story altogether, deserving of its' own document.
Please notice that some lines of dialogue actually end with a 'music
tune' sometimes (probably implying some sort of tone in their sentence), which
I could not accurately represent here, so please understand some slight
"edits".

GENERAL STORY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Last time on King of Fighters XI (because XII had no story and was
basically non-canon)!!
The Bernsteins are back in town, and hosting yet another KOF tournament
after the patriarch (Rugal) handled the first 2 KOF tournaments under the
current format. Glamour, prestige, glory.... But alas, it wouldn't be a KOF
event without something sinister brewing beneath the surface, right? And at the
center of the chaos is Ash Crimson, who already has 2 out of the 3 Treasures of
God in his possession. Will he target the last one remaining, Kyo Kusanagi?
With over half the cast after his trail, that seems hard to accomplish. And who
is the clan known only as "Those From The Past"? What business do they have
with the Orochi?
Questions answered, and more questions that will emerge...just another
year at KOF, everyone!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PRE-FIGHT DIALOGUES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ANDY BOGARD VS. ANDY BOGARD
Andy1: "Another me!? Is this...the shadow of Shiranui!?"
Andy2: "The shadow of the Shiranui or the shadow of my own or the heart....
Either way, it is an enemy that I will have to confront!"
Andy1: "Very well, then! Andy Bogard, master of the Shiranui style, standing
ready!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. ASH CRIMSON
Ash: "So young, and yet so serious. Tell me, have people ever told you that
you're inmensely boring?"
Andy: "I do not proclaim to be an interesting person. But I do proclaim to know
the difference between good and evil."
Ash: "See, that's what I mean! Talking as if you have justice on your side!
That's why you bore the hell out of people! It drives me nuts! Disappear
from my world, right now!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. ATHENA ASAMIYA
Andy: "I can't go easy on anyone, no matter who the opponent is! That's the
right thing to do as a martial artist!"
Athena: "Right! Let's give it our best!"
Andy: "I can sense your indomitable spirit! I can see why Master Chin chose you
as one of his disciples!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. BENIMARU NIKAIDO
Benimaru: "You say you can cut through shadow...it's easy to cut through
darkness, but can you cut through the light of my electricity?"
Andy: "Why should I? I don't need to cut through anything when I can beat you
senseless instead. Before you can act, I'll leave you on your back.
That's the power of my Shiranui speed!"
Benimaru: "And here I thought you were a humble person. Well, then. Let us see
who is faster!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. BILLY KANE
Billy: "Ugh, one of the Bogard brothers. Get lost, boy-o! Nobody needs you
here!"
Andy: "That's my line, Billy. Nobody requires your presence here, especially
not me. I shall use these hands to defeat Geese and avenge my father! If
you intend to stand in my way, know that I will not go easy on you."
Billy: "Yap all you want, you bloody hippy! I'll give you something to really
remember!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. CHIN GENTSAI
Chin: "Say, do you want me to tell you what's wrong with you?"
Andy: "Even Master Tung bends his ear to you. I would be honored to hear your
opinion."
Chin: "Your problem is.... You lack 'flair'!"
Andy: "Huh...? I'm sorry, but I don't know what you mean...."
Chin: "It's important to stay calm in a fight, sure, but there's no need to be
so utterly rigid. If you get stuck in the same mindset, surely your
fighting style will fall into the same emotionless rut as well!"
Andy: "I-I see.... I'll try and take those words to heart, Master Chin!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. CLARK STEEL
Clark: "Your fighting style excels in point-blank combat.... Charging into
something like this would be a risky thing...."
Andy: "You seem to have some false information on my technique. Shiranui style
is not bound by range. No matter the distance, any enemy will be struck
down in one swift move! That is the Shiranui style!"
Clark: "Then I just need to wait until the moment that you get into my range so
that I can grab you. I've been in countless situations where a split-
second mistake in judgment would be fatal. It's what I do."
ANDY BOGARD VS. DUO LON
Andy: "So you're part of the Hizoku clan too.... Show me your legendary Fist of
the Assassin!"
Duo Lon: "Very well.... If that is what you wish."
Andy: "Andy Bogard, master of the Shiranui style, ready to fight!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE
Elisabeth: "Your punches are as fast as the wind.... Very impressive, Andy
Bogard! But I cannot allow you to win! I shall break through your
white wind!"
Andy: "The wind changes its' shape at will. I'm afraid you won't be breaking
through my attacks that easily!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. GORO DAIMON
Andy: "You are truly like an unmovable mountain. I'm going to have trouble
bringing you down...."
Daimon: "And you, Mr. 'Swift Like the Wind'.... I'll have to stay on my toes
around you."
Andy: "I see. It seems that we are both well prepared for this matchup!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. HWA JAI
Andy: "You used to work for Geese.... Why are you here!?"
Hwa Jai: "I've cut ties with Geese now, but there's a little matter of revenge I
have to take care of. I don't have time to waste on you! I'll put you
to sleep with my Dragon Kick!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. IORI YAGAMI
Andy: "Even without your flames, you're still a force to be reckoned with, Iori
Yagami!"
Iori: "You are unfortunate to have run into me. I'll slice your entire body into
ribbons!"
Andy: "Shiranui style can slice even the shadows! Not even your Yasakani style
can get the best of me!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. IORI YAGAMI (EX)
EX Iori: "Get out of here, Shiranui. Or would you like me to burn you until not
even a shadow remains?"
Andy: "If the Yagami style has the power to burn shadows, then my Shiranui style
has the power to cut them apart! ...And you shall be at the receiving end
of my power. Now let's begin!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. JOE HIGASHI
Joe: "Hey, how's it going, Andy? Mai still got you wrapped around her finger?"
Andy: "Th-That's not how it is! What's that got to do with this fight, anyway?"
Joe: "Nothing! But you should have seen your face change colors! Man, you really
need to work on your poker face!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. K'
K': "Get lost, kid."
Andy: "As arrogant as always. But if your strength is the same as ever, too, I
should have no trouble winning."
K': "Just don't make me break a sweat, okay. I just took a shower...."
ANDY BOGARD VS. KIM KAPHWAN
Kim: "I can tell from your stance that you have regained your sharpness."
Andy: "Thank you. I figured that the least I could do was to endeavor not to
disappoint you, Kim."
Kim: "I am honored! Allow me to test your strength now!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. KING
King: "Ah, Andy, just the man I was looking for!"
Andy: "You were looking for me? Why!? Don't tell me something's happened to
Mai!"
King: "No, it's not about Mai, it's about that brother of yours. He came to my
bar with Ryo the other day. They both drank almost every bottle in the
house and they put it all on their tab! I got Ryo's share from Robert,
but I'm going to ask you to cover Terry's share."
Andy: "But...that's insane! That's not right! Why should I have to pay for
that!?"
King: "Why? Because you have a lazy, good-for-nothing brother. That's my guess."
Andy: "That slacker! Next time I see him I'll make sure that he gets a real
job!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. KULA DIAMOND
Andy: "To be honest, it doesn't feel right to fight a girl like you. But the
legacy of Shiranui rests on my shoulders! I cannot back down from any
fight!"
Kula: "*yawn* ...Are you done? Can we begin now?"
Andy: "Yes. Sorry. My pride and honor are of course of no interest to you. As an
apology for making you wait, allow me to promise you that I will give you
all I've got!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Kyo: "Hey, I was wondering where you'd gone off to. What have you been up to,
Koppo Fighter?"
Andy: "I've been busy with ascetic training, isolated from the everyday world,
of course. What else!?"
Kyo: "Psh. I have no need for that stuff. A real man of genius doesn't need that
nonsense."
Andy: "Talent is important, but hard work and talent beats talent. You can't get
by in this world by just relying on raw talent...."
Kyo: "Says you! I'll make you into a believer. I'm a genius, and I ain't trying
to hide it, either!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
EX Kyo: "All right, let's see what you can do! Try to put up a bit of a fight,
would ya?"
Andy: "I'm not going to brag, but I feel fairly confident that you will not be
disappointed with my skills. In fact, I wonder if you'll even be worth
using my full strength on."
EX Kyo: "That sounds a lot like bragging to me, buddy. Okay, let's have some
fun!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. LEONA
Andy: "You're as keen as a blade, and your resolve is strong.... Very
impressive!"
Leona: "You're pretty fearsome yourself...."
Andy: "But what I seek lies beyond the face of death! Andy Bogard, master of
the Shiranui style! Ready to fight!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Mai: "I finally found you! Why don't you ever wanna be teammates!?"
Andy: "M-Mai!? I, uh.... It's just...you see.... Oh, I know! Instead of being
on the same team, I thought it would be to our mutual benefit if we
fought each other as enemies, so we could both hone our skills!"
Mai: "That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard! When we get back to the dojo,
I'm gonna hurt you in places you never knew existed!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. MATURE
Mature: "I love seeing someone as stoic as you go down. It's such an exquisite
sight!"
Andy: "Sorry, but I'm not here to fulfill your weird fantasies. Let's start
the fight!"
Mature: "Don't knock it 'til you've tried it. Who knows, you might even enjoy
the abyss!"
Andy: "Sorry, but I won't be joining you! This will be the end of Orochi!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. MAXIMA
Maxima: "If I just compare our stats, I should have no trouble winning.
However, these KOF types never seem to behave quite according to
data."
Andy: "If everything went according to your precious data, what would be the
point of fighting? You never know what will happen in battle.... That's
what makes it so exhilarating!"
Maxima: "Maybe my problem is that I don't actually know how to enjoy
fighting...."
ANDY BOGARD VS. MR. KARATE
Mr. Karate: "I see.... Now that Hanzo is gone, only you and that girl remain
to inherit his mantle.... I can see why Hanzo chose you, young
man. I shall enjoy watching what becomes of you."
Andy: "Then allow me to show you firsthand! Get ready to face Andy Bogard,
disciple of the Shiranui style!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "You never seem to grow at all.... Are you eating too many veggies? Or
are you one of those fools who thinks mind is stronger than muscle?"
Andy: "The essence of Shiranui lies in its' lightning speed. Do you think you
can keep up with your bulky body?"
Raiden: "Gah ha ha! You think a featherweight can beat a heavyweight!? I'll
flatten you, kid!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "The little guy defeats the big guy.... That's the story they sell you in
those self-defense classes, isn't it?"
Andy: "The Shiranui style is not rooted in self-defense! It's based on
assassination, just like your own style!"
Ralf: "Sorry, buddy, didn't mean to insult you. Well then, show me what you've
got, Ninja Boy!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Robert: "Hey, Andy! How's it going? Gimme a call if you're ever in Italy again,
okay?"
Andy: "You'll train with me? Then I will gladly take you up on your offer!"
Robert: "What? Train? Who said anything about training!? You need to learn to
relax once in a while, man!"
Andy: "I think you need to learn to stop relaxing from time to time, Robert....
Let's see whose training style is superior!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "Shiranui style, eh? I should warn you that I know a thing or two about
the ancient martial arts as well!"
Andy: "Sorry to rain on your parade, but you won't be the victor today. Just as
Kyokugen exceeds standard karate, Shiranui style exceeds standard
ancient martial arts."
Ryo: "I see! I'll keep that in mind!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. SAIKI
Andy: "I can feel your malice just by looking at you.... You aren't Ash
Crimson, are you?"
Saiki: "Indeed, I am not. But, before long, you will probably be wishing I
was. For I greatly exceed Ash in power...and I am utterly ruthless.
Especially when it comes to humans."
Andy: "Very well...I shall use my Shiranui style to put an end to your evil
plans! Let's go!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "Are you sure you should be out by yourself? You're more of a puppy than
a wolf."
Andy: "Are we judging people by looks now? If so, I'd have to say that you most
resemble a street rat!"
Shen: "A street rat!? I'm going to feed you your words and make you eat garbage
for that!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. SIE KENSOU
Kensou: "You seem to have completely recovered, Andy! But so have I!"
Andy: "I see.... I can tell by the quality of your spirit that you have been
training well!"
Kensou: "You know it! You wanna see my speedy techniques?"
Andy: "I believe I do! Show me what Master Chin has taught you!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "I will test you to see if you are worthy of the skills you've
inherited from Hanzo!"
Andy: "I heard so many people telling your story in South Town when I was
young.... The legendary Unbeaten Karateka.... Allow me to test you as
well, Takuma!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "This may not be the time or the place, but come on.... Tell me what's
going on between you and Mai."
Andy: "Wh-What are you talking about, brother? That's totally unrelated to
what's going on!"
Terry: "Well, it's just that every time I run into her at a KOF tournament,
she's going on about 'my Andy' this and 'my Andy' that.... Man, I get
tired of hearing all that stuff. You two should just make up your minds
already!"
Andy: "You and Joe are so harsh! Are you trying to agitate me or something?"
Terry: "Breaking your opponent's pace by taunting him is all part of the game,
Bro! I thought you were raised in the streets!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. VICE
Vice: "You're not even worth making fun of, shorty. You bore me. Just leave!"
Andy: "Does that mean you're forfeiting the match? That's fine with me. I'm not
so desperate to prove my strength that I'd hit someone while she's
running away."
Vice: "I'm going to make you die slowly and painfully for that comment.... I
gave you your life and you just threw it away!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Yuri: "Andy, can I ask you something? How are things going between you and
Mai?"
Andy: "I wish people would stop asking me that question everywhere I go. Does
she really have to complain to everyone!?"
Yuri: "Hm? What's that, Andy? Does she have to what?"
Andy: "N-Nothing. Well, what about you, then? What do you think of Robert,
hmm?"
Yuri: "Huh? Robert? Hmmm.... Well...uh...ha ha ha. You know, we can catch up
later! Let's get this fight out of the way first!"
Andy: "Right! We didn't come here for small talk."
ANDY BOGARD VS. TRUE SAIKI
Andy: "That figure, that unusual aura.... Who are you? Are you the new bad guy
this time around?"
Saiki: "You ask too many questions! Silence! You will soon be dead anyway! Even
time bends its' knee before my power! You should recognize your place
and do the same! Get down on all fours and beg for your life!"
Andy: "You do seem to possessn a formidable power, yes. But that is all the
more reason for me to thwart your plans!"
ANDY BOGARD VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "Don't worry, everyone will be consumed by my control over the timeline.
You're not going to be the only one. You, your family, your little
girlfriend.... All of history will be consumed and rewritten by the
backward flow of time! All of you, the whole world! So you can rest in
peace now!"
Andy: "I'm not as foolish as to be comforted by hearing that. I will stop you,
without fail! Andy Bogard, standing ready!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. ASH CRIMSON
Ash1: "The power of Kagura's mirror is right here. So, is this a side effect
or something?"
Ash2: "Does that really matter? It looks like we've found a nice way to kill
some time!"
Ash1: "I guess you're right.... All right, let's have some fun then!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. ATHENA ASAMIYA
Athena: "I didn't see it before, but I see it now.... You are carrying some
kind of determination in your heart."
Ash: "So what if I am? I'm not asking to be understood by any of you."
Athena: "But, it's so sad! Surely you need someone you can confide in...."
Ash: "Enough with the talking, mademoiselle. I don't have all day."
ASH CRIMSON VS. BENIMARU NIKAIDO
Benimaru: "You're really popular lately, aren't you? How does it feel to be
hunted by everyone and their dog?"
Ash: "Oh? Monsieur Nikaido? Did you have something to discuss with me, too?"
Benimaru: "I figured some people would be very grateful to me if I managed to
drag you out of here. Like Kyo, or that girl...? You know who I
mean!"
Ash: "Aha ha ha. You're funny, monsieur! We both know that there's no way you
can catch me!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. BILLY KANE
Ash: "Ummm.... Have we met? Sorry, but I can't remember for the life of me. You
must be too weak for me to bother remembering! I guess there's not much
you can do about that, huh? Aha ha ha."
Billy: "Wipe that smarmy look off your face, girly-boy! Where I come from, that
kind of talk gets people killed!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. CHIN GENTSAI
Chin: "What is it you're trying to do? And why are you going about it all by
yourself? Surely there must be one or two people you could trust to help
you meet your goals."
Ash: "Ah ha ha. Honestly, I'd never even considered such a thing. ...I'm fine
by myself. I always have been and always will be. So don't worry about
me."
ASH CRIMSON VS. CLARK STEEL
Clark: "There's a whole lotta things I've been meaning to ask you. Mind if we
go somewhere quiet?"
Ash: "Something tells me you're not talking about going to a nice café
somewhere.... What if I declined?"
Clark: "Refusing is not an option, I'm afraid. There's only two choices
available. You can come quietly, or be dragged along bound and gagged."
Ash: "Or, how about my third option! How about I punch you into next month, and
hang out in a café then?"
ASH CRIMSON VS. DUO LON
Duo Lon: "Good to see you, Ash. You look like you're having fun."
Ash: "Oh, Duo Lon! How've you been? Good to see you, too! But what do you want
from me? I'm kind of in the middle of an important job here."
Duo Lon: "That's why I'm here. Tell me about this important job of yours...."
ASH CRIMSON VS. ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE
Elisabeth: "I found you, Ash! I'm not going to let you get away again!"
Ash: "Hee hee, what's the matter, Betty? You seem awfully cross!"
Elisabeth: "Silence! You're coming with me! Surely you don't need me to remind
you of our mission!?"
Ash: "Ha ha ha.... Sorry, Betty! I don't need a reminder, but I have other
things to take care of!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. GORO DAIMON
Daimon: "You're such a carefree kid. It reflects a lack of concentration!"
Ash: "Hee hee, maybe you're right. I never was very good at staring contests.
But this tournament isn't decided on childrens' games, so do yourself a
favor and get out of my way!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. HWA JAI
Hwa Jai: "I hate effeminate types like you."
Ash: "That's no way to say hello! If you have a problem with me, then why don't
you just go home? No one will care if you leave. No one will care about
you, period!"
Hwa Jai: "I'm saying you guys tick me off so much! I want to bash your face in!
I just wanna plant my foot right into your face! Here I come, girly
boy!"
Ash: "I have more important things to do, but I suppose I can spend a
millisecond to take care of you."
ASH CRIMSON VS. IORI YAGAMI
Iori: "I've finally found you...Ash Crimson!"
Ash: "Well, if it isn't Monsieur Yagami! What could you possibly need me for?"
Iori: "I'm taking back my fire! The interest you owe on returning it will be
your life!"
Ash: "Heh heh heh.... I figured you were going to say that. Sorry, but that's
not going to happen!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. IORI YAGAMI (EX)
EX Iori: "I've had enough of you.... Die, already...."
Ash: "Huh? Is Miss Kagura trying to get back at me or something? Nah, she
wouldn't be that stupid, would she? Ah ha ha ha! All right, I'll play
with you for a while! I'll even go easy on you!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. JOE HIGASHI
Ash: "You've got quite some nerve, telling the 'Legend of Joe' all by yourself.
I have to admire that, in a way."
Joe: "Glad to hear that! I guess you're not too bad either. You sure sashay
like a pro! That'll make it a lot more fun to kick your face in! I can
hardly contain myself!"
Ash: "You're going to have a hard time containing your internal organs, soon.
We'll just see who ends up getting their face reconstructed!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. K'
Ash: "You're the man-made Flames of Kusanagi.... To tell you the truth, I don't
have any business with you."
K': "Shut up, you squirt.... Just shut up...."
ASH CRIMSON VS. KIM KAPHWAN
Kim: "I finally found you! Your guardian is looking all over for you! Go home
now, unless you want to be carried out of here against your will."
Ash: "My guardian? Are you talking about Betty? She's not my guardian, Master
Kim. I am me, and Betty is Betty. So don't stick your nose where it
doesn't belong, okay?"
Kim: "I don't underestimate you, so don't think you will dispatch me that
easily. It's too dangerous to leave you gallivanting about the place. Get
back to her this instant!"
Ash: "You're starting to get on my nerves.... Why don't you take a little nap
in that corner over there?"
ASH CRIMSON VS. KING
King: "I heard you've been acting kinda strange. Have anything you want to
share?"
Ash: "What's it to you? This is something I, and only I, can do."
King: "That sounds like a cry for help. You need someone to help carry your
burden, right?"
Ash: "Stay out of this! I hate nosy people like you! It's too late, anyway!
Soon all will be forced to an end!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. KULA DIAMOND
Kula: "I hate fire! I hate hot things! Get away from me!"
Ash: "Only a cowardly lamb would fear flames as pretty as these. Or a fawn
perhaps?"
Kula: "I'm not scared of fire! I just really hate it! Okay! Then I'll just put
them out...with your blood!" *
*Author's note: Holy hell, when did Kula get this creepy? Freaks me out....
ASH CRIMSON VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Kyo: "Hey, freckle face! Weren't you looking for me?"
Ash: "How admirable of you, Kusanagi. I hadn't expected you to come and find me
on your own."
Kyo: "Stop the chatter.... I'm going to hurt you in ways you can't even imagine.
I will never grow tired of hurting you! That's how much you've got me
ticked off now! Get ready, Ash Crimson!"
Ash: "Oh, I've been ready, but are you? Are you ready to lose everything you've
got?"
ASH CRIMSON VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
Ash: "To be honest, I don't really need your power anymore. It's just that I
don't want those guys to get their hands on it.... So I guess it'll make
things easier if I just get rid of you right here and now! That'll save
me a lot of trouble in the future!"
EX Kyo: "You think you can just get away with everything, don't you? First,
I'll make you pay for what you did to Kagura! Get ready!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. LEONA
Ash: "You're keeping me under surveillance, but you're doing a very poor job of
hiding it.... I'm getting sick of having you follow me around. I have
stuff to do, so retire already!"
Leona: "I am only carrying out my mission. Your problems do not concern me."
ASH CRIMSON VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Ash: "I'm getting so tired of dealing with every single idiot here. Do me a
favor and get lost already."
Mai: "Just admit you're afraid to lose to me! You know what, what if I promised
I'll go easy on you?"
Ash: "...You're annoying, you know that? This is more trouble than it's worth,
but okay, let's do it!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. MATURE
Ash: "Oooh, what lovely nails you have! They could use a bit more color,
though."
Mature: "I wasn't really asking for advice, but thanks, kid. I believe you are
right.... I think a nice shade of your blood-red should do the trick!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. MAXIMA
Maxima: "You've got 2 of the 3 Sacred Treasures. I'm really interested in
seeing how they've changed you."
Ash: "Well, you shouldn't be too curious. Some things are best left unknown."
Maxima: "But some things need to be dealt with. And one of those things is you,
monsieur."
Ash: "Words like that will get you killed very quickly. I have more things to
do today. I wonder what fire does to a cyborg? Let's try and find out,
shall we? Heh heh heh...."
ASH CRIMSON VS. MR. KARATE
Ash: "Hmmm.... I guess humans aren't all hopeless. I didn't realize they can
push themselves beyond their humanity just by training."
Mr. Karate: "Spare me your diatribe.... Just fight me already!"
Ash: "I'd hate to waste my powers on you, but all right.... I'll play around
with you!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. RAIDEN
Ash: "You got a lot of courage walking around in public with a flabby body like
that."
Raiden: "Don't you see? This body's got enough brute strength to take down a
raging bull with one punch and enough toughness to absorb any
strike.... Pretty impressive, huh?"
Ash: "Oh yes, I'm entirely in awe now that you've explained it to me. (...Do I
really have to fight people like this?)"
ASH CRIMSON VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "Let's not waste any time talking. I have other missions to carry out!"
Ash: "What's the hurry? Are you so eager to shorten what little is left of your
meager life?"
Ralf: "Shut up! Talking to you only ticks me off! Stuff a sock in it!"
Ash: "If you're burning up with anger, then I'll just turn you to ashes! That
way you won't have to listen to me anymore!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Ash: "Ciao! What brings you here, Don Juan? I'd love to talk, but I'm kind of
busy at the moment."
Robert: "What brings me here? We're here to fight, aren't we? It'll only take
3 minutes, so be a good sport!"
Ash: "Three minutes? I don't have that kind of time to waste. How about I spare
one minute to beat you. Is that satisfactory?"
Robert: "See, that's what I'm talking about! Let's get this show on the road!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "Listen up, boy! The only thing that will guide you in life is the
discipline of your own fists! You'll never get anywhere by siphoning
away other people's powers!"
Ash: "Thanks for the advice, but I'm not after your undoubtedly magnificent
sweat-based powers.... Anyway, just get out of my sight already, okay?
You're really starting to tick me off...."
ASH CRIMSON VS. SAIKI
Ash: " I'm not very fond of making tirades or throwing hissy fits or
anything.... But when I look at your face and see how much it resembles
mine, I just want to shout at the top of my lungs!"
Saiki: "It angers you that my face looks like yours? Surely it should be the
other way around, Ash. I don't look like you. It is you who looks like
me. Do you know why that is?"
Ash: "Tais-toi! Do me a favor and shut your mouth! Forever!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "Long time no see, Ash! It's time for you to repay your overdue debt!"
Ash: "Hm? I didn't borrow anything from you, did I?"
Shen: "Don't act stupid. You set me up! Do you have any idea what I've gone
through because of you!?"
Ash: "Oh, you mean that thing with Ozzy? I didn't know you were the type to
hold a grudge, Shen! Try and be a bit more mature about this, Shen! You
don't want to end up getting burned, do you?"
ASH CRIMSON VS. SIE KENSOU
Kensou: "You don't train at all, you just grow stronger by stealing other
people's powers! That's pretty despicable! No one will recognize your
strength that way. Are you sure that's the path you wanna take?"
Ash: "Heh heh heh, that actually sounds convincing coming from you. You should
start your own talkshow!"
Kensou: "Stop being sarcastic! I'm not joking around, here!"
Ash: "Non non. I don't need your concern or sympathy! All I want...is power!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "I don't know what you're up to, but you're out of luck now that you've
run into me. Don't cause too much trouble to the other patients while
you're in the hospital, okay? Those people have real illnesses and
they need their rest."
Ash: "What? You think you're going to win? You're about eight steps ahead of
yourself, mister."
Takuma: "Your impudence has lasted long enough. I'm going to turn up the lights
in here! I want everyone to see this!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. TERRY BOGARD
Ash: "Look, you can't beat me.... Just save us both the time and energy and
call it a day. What? What's so funny?"
Terry: "It's just funny hearing a runt like you acting all cocky. I was just
thinking about what happened to kids like that in South Town. Maybe I'm
just getting old."
Ash: "Well, I'm not laughing, idiot! I'm sick of you and your stupid face!"
Terry: "Awww, getting upset over something petty like that.... Don't worry, bro,
you're still pretty cute for your age!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. VICE
Vice: "You sure look pale, kid. It shouldn't take more than a single punch to
turn your entire body inside-out."
Ash: "You, on the other hand, are as persistent as a roach. I'd better clean up
the mess you're going to leave behind."
Vice: "A roach!? Why you little.... I won't kill you in one blow after all. I'm
going to take my time and kill you organ by organ!"
Ash: "Merci! Thanks for going easy on me! You might regret that later on,
though."
ASH CRIMSON VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Yuri: "I don't know what you're trying to do, but I hear you're causing quite a
lot of trouble all over the place."
Ash: "If you don't know, then just keep your nose out of my business. I have
matters to attend to."
Yuri: "Halt! This is where your evil plan ends! I will stop you no matter
what!"
Ash: "Ugh, here we go again. Why does KOF attract so many people like this!?"
ASH CRIMSON VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "I can turn even time into ashes. Surely you know that, Ash Crimson?
So.... What, Ash? Are you really going to stand up to me?"
Ash: "Yeah, I know about you. But you seem to know very little about me. So let
me tell you about myself.... I hate taking orders!"
ASH CRIMSON VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "I was kinda hoping I wouldn't have to see myself like this."
D. Ash: "Then let me end your plight...by absorbing your power as well!"
Ash: "All right, that does it! I'll turn you into ashes right here and now!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. ATHENA ASAMIYA
Athena1: "Huh!? Wh-What's this!? Another me!?"
Athena2: "I-Is this some kind of a set-up? Like a hidden camera show or
something?"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. BENIMARU NIKAIDO
Athena: "Benimaru! I'm telling you right now that if you dare to go easy on me,
I'll get really, really, really angry!"
Benimaru: "If I take this seriously I won't feel good about myself, and if I
don't, you will hate me.... Do you see all the dilemmas I have to
face in my everyday life!?"
Athena: "Oh, poor baby! Now stop screwing around and fight me, already!"
Benimaru: "As you wish. I can see that you're more of a warrior than a little
girl anyway."
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. BILLY KANE
Athena: "I hear you have a younger sister.... What would she say if she saw you
here like this?"
Billy: "Mind your own business! My family is no concern of yours!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. CHIN GENTSAI
Athena: "It's an honor to be able to fight you again, Master! Please don't hold
back!"
Chin: "That's good to hear. Well, maybe you could do me a favor and go a bit
easy on me today? Maybe it's my old age, but I've been feeling very
tired lately and I don't know if I can keep up...."
Athena: "Don't try to dupe me into letting my guard down! I know all your
tricks, Master!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. CLARK STEEL
Athena: "I don't want to get in the way of your mission but.... I can't accept
defeat here either!"
Clark: "Don't worry about it. I won't ask you to let me win for the sake of my
mission, little girl. Field work is to be expected in my line of work.
I'll gain victory and complete my mission by my own hands!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. DUO LON
Athena: "Poor you! Your heart radiates nothing but sorrow and pain!"
Duo Lon: "If you can really hear the dead crying in agony, then you should do
the sensible thing and leave here right now. You're too docile to
survive for long...."
Athena: "I still have to fight! For all the people out there who are too weak
to defend themselves!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE
Elisabeth: "Such innocent and beautiful eyes.... You look far too nice to
continue fighting."
Athena: "Thanks for your compliments and concern! But I'm a warrior, just like
you! If I were the type to just give up when facing a tough opponent,
I wouldn't have come here in the first place!"
Elisabeth: "I can sense your firm resolve. Very well, then. I, Elisabeth
Blanctorche, shall be your opponent today!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. GORO DAIMON
Athena: "Hello, Mr. Daimon! How's Mr. Shingo doing?"
Daimon: "Oh, he's getting better. I'll be sure to tell him you asked about
him."
Athena: "Thank you! We're about the same age so I was worried about him...."
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. HWA JAI
Hwa Jai: "I can't stand it when little brats like you prance around acting like
they know everything about fighting! What on earth could you possibly
know? You were still wearing diapers a week ago!"
Athena: "I am younger than you, but I still do believe I know what fighting is
about!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. IORI YAGAMI
Athena: "Iori.... Are you still chasing after Kyo even though you've lost your
flames?"
Iori: "You again.... I'm getting sick of all your talking! Instead of bothering
other people, straighten out your own life first!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. IORI YAGAMI (EX)
EX Iori: "What're you doing here, idol girl? Shouldn't you be at home baking
cookies?"
Athena: "Thanks for the concern, but I'm a full-fledged fighter. Don't worry
about me."
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. JOE HIGASHI
Joe: "Hey, how've you been, Athena? I'm always rooting for ya when I see you on
TV!"
Athena: "Thanks, Joe! I always try my hardest to honor my fans!"
Joe: "Well, sadly, I'm gonna have to disappoint some of those fans today. You
see, today is my day to shine!"
Athena: "We'll just see about that, Joe!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. K'
K': "Psh.... Another kid, huh? It's so tiresome to have to go easy on kids like
you all the time."
Athena: "Are you really that worried about me? I knew you were a good guy after
all!"
K': "Wh-What! Shut your piehole, girl! I've wasted enough time on this
conversation already!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. KIM KAPHWAN
Athena: "Nice to see you, Kim! How's Jhun doing?"
Kim: "I think you misunderstand our relationship. We are not particularly close
in any way."
Athena: "Really? I thought you two were best friends."
Kim: "Is that how it appears? I'm sure he would be even more disappointed to
hear that than I am. Well, enough about Jhun. Let's begin!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. KING
Athena: "I'm usually teamed up with my teacher, so I always kind of envy you,
King! It must be so much fun to put together a team with a different
group of girls. Just like in school!"
King: "Well, if you'd like, I'd gladly exchange one of my teammates for you!"
Athena: "W-Why, Miss King? Did something happen?"
King: "Well, nothing serious. It's just.... Mai and Yuri just can't hold their
liquor very well.... And you're still a minor so I couldn't possibly ask
you to take care of two drunkards, could I?"
Athena: "Oh, I don't mind. I'm used to being around people when they get
hammered! Whenever Master gets drunk, he goes out and fights pandas!"
King: "R-Really!? Is that what your teacher does when he gets drunk?"
Athena: "Oh yeah, it happens all the time! Grandma always gets really angry
with him though!"
King: "Wow.... Alcohol is the great equalizer, huh?"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. KULA DIAMOND
Athena: "What are K' and Maxima thinking!? Don't they care about anyone but
themselves?"
Kula: "What are you so upset about, miss? Did K' do something mean to you?"
Athena: "Not to me, to you! Always putting you in these dangerous situations! I
don't care how strong you are, you're still just a kid! Those men are
so inconsiderate!"
Kula: "Huh? I'm not a kid anymore, you know? That boy with the big hat is much
younger than me!"
Athena: "This isn't about Bao, it's about you! I'm going to tell those guys not
to put you in jeopardy and I'll make sure they listen!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Kyo: "Wow, I don't know what to say.... Is this one of your strategies?"
Athena: "Huh? Strategies? What are you talking about?"
Kyo: "I mean, this is just a PR stunt, right? No one your age wears a sailor
uniform anymore."
Athena: "Th-That's not a PR stunt! It's a return to my origin! It's a
throwback!"
Kyo: "A throwback? I wouldn't wear a school uniform anymore if my life depended
on it."
Athena: "J-Just shut up about it already, or you'll get me really angry! Let's
get this over with!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
Athena: "You shouldn't wear yourself out like that all the time, Kyo. Everyone's
worried about you!"
EX Kyo: "Well then, you can tell everyone not to.... Wait a minute. Yuki didn't
ask you to come here, did she?"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. LEONA
Athena: "U-Ummm.... Leona? Are you feeling okay?"
Leona: "I'm fine.... Why do you ask...?"
Athena: "...I can't just say that she looks even moodier than usual, can I?"
Leona: "Do you have a problem with me looking moody?"
Athena: "Eek! Did I just say that out loud!?"
Leona: "Don't worry about thinking that I look moody. I certainly don't mind."
Athena: "S-Somehow, your indifference only makes me feel worse...."
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Mai: "A sailor uniform.... That takes me back.... I remember the days when I was
a schoolgirl and I.... ...Wait, you're making me sound like I'm an old hag
here! How dare you?! I'll show you! I've got plenty of good years left!"
Athena: "W-Wait, Mai, I didn't say anything...."
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. MAXIMA
Maxima: "You're wearing something new every time I see you. Do you know what a
pain it is to be constantly updating your images in my database?"
Athena: "Huh? Why are you even concerned about keeping track of stuff like that,
Maxima!?"
Maxima: "I-It's nothing like that! I'm only interested in your strength, but
you tend to fight differently depending on your outfit. That's it!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. MATURE
Athena: "You people again! No matter how many times you keep coming back, I will
put an end to your evil plans!"
Mature: "Pretending to be the defender of peace.... It makes my hair stand on
end! This planet doesn't need you or any of mankind. It needs Orochi!
That is why we shall appear again and again! The planet itself is
keeping us alive!"
Athena: "Even if that's true, I still can't let you destroy mankind! I firmly
believe in humanity's possibilities!"
Mature: "You will be savagely disappointed. But perhaps that's just what a naive
girl like you needs.... You need a lesson in the cruelty of this
world!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. MR. KARATE
Athena: "That aura.... Are you Mr. Sakazaki!? But.... Wh-What happened to you!?"
Mr. Karate: "Begone, girl.... If the very thought of me scares you, then you
will not last long against me."
Athena: "But I have to do this! I may be inexperienced, but I'm still a
warrior!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "Hey now, what kind of a handicap match is this!? This is gonna be too
one-sided to be any fun!"
Athena: "Isn't it a pro's duty to put on a great fight no matter who you're
fighting? That's what I always do when I get on the stage! After all,
there are some people in the audience that may never get to see me
again!"
Raiden: "Gah ha ha! Well you've got me beaten in that round, missy! You're
absolutely right! Time to get serious! Let's put on a show to
remember!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "Hmmm.... I wonder why our girlie can't be a little bit more like you."
Athena: "Um, Ralf, are you talking about Leona?"
Ralf: "Yeah. Do you.... Do you think you could tell me why she has to be like
that all the time?"
Athena: "U-Uhhh, I, uh, I guess I have a vague idea.... Are you sure you want to
hear it?"
Ralf: "Yeah, go for it! Maybe it'll be a shock, but it can only help the
situation in the long run, right?"
Athena: "Well, okay.... I think the biggest reason she's that way is because of
the people around her...."
Ralf: "What!? Are you saying Clark and the Commander are to blame!?"</pre><pre id="faqspan-2">
Athena: "Hey! You left yourself out! You're the biggest problem of the bunch!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Robert: "So you're my next opponent, huh, Athena? Fighting you just doesn't feel
right, though...."
Athena: "Huh? It doesn't feel right? What's that supposed to mean!?"
Robert: "It's just that you have some very, er, enthusiastic fans, and they
scare the living daylights out of me."
Athena: "I see.... I can't help you with that. You're going to have to talk to
Jhun yourself...."
Robert: "Ha ha! I didn't even have to mention him by name, and you knew who it
was. Well, even with your one-man insane fan club, I'm still going all
out!"
Athena: "I wouldn't have it any other way! We'll settle this fair and square!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "Don't you think you're relying on your psychic powers too much? It seems
like you're neglecting your physical training. Once the chips are down,
all you can truly rely on are your own arms and legs!"
Athena: "Those, and my mind! My Master has taught me how to wield my mind as a
weapon well!"
Ryo: "I see.... It seems I've said too much then. Let's see what you're capable
of!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. SAIKI
Athena: "Your evil plans end here! I will stop you, if it's the last thing I
do!"
Saiki: "It seems you lack even the most basic grasp of the situation. A little
squirt like you could never defeat me! Your psychic powers won't last
a minute against me!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "I promise not to hit you in the face. Your fans would probably never let
me hear the end of it if I did."
Athena: "I appreciate your kindness, but that will not be necessary! I may be
an idol, but I'm a Psycho Soldier first!"
Shen: "Great! You're definitely one of the old man's pupils. Out of respect, I
won't go easy on you!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. SIE KENSOU
Kensou: "U-Uh, Athena, I, uh.... I luh-huh, uh...lo-lo...."
Athena: "I understand, Kensou! L-Let's go! Don't think I'll go easy on you this
time!"
Kensou: "What? No, that's not what I was trying to say! Just hang on a second,
Athena! I looooo-"
Athena: "I-I can't hear you! Look, let's just get this fight started already!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "I have never once underestimated the power of Kung Fu since my fight
with Lee Gakusuo. I will give it 100% whether my opponent is a
fearsome Kung Fu master or a young girl such as yourself!"
Athena: "Thank you! It means a lot to me that you acknowledge me as a true
martial artist! Now let us fight and hold nothing back!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "I know how to please the crowd pretty good, but you've got me totally
beat in that category!"
Athena: "D-Don't be silly! Your performances always get the fans fired up!"
Terry: "I'm glad to hear that coming from you! Well then, let's have a fight
that'll keep people buzzin' for years!"
Athena: "Absolutely! My fans around the globe are counting on it!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. VICE
Vice: "Long time no see, Idol Girl! How've you been?"
Athena: "You're from the Orochi clan, aren't you? You're still alive!?"
Vice: "Never mind that. Let me hear you scream in perfect pitch once again!"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Yuri: "Hnnnn.... HA! Heeya! No, that's not right...."
Athena: "Umm.... Yuri? What are you doing?"
Yuri: "I'm developing Psycho Powers, obviously! I thought I could learn a thing
or two from you...."
Athena: "If it was really that easy to develop my powers, then what would that
say about all the work that Kensou had put in?"
Yuri: "Ugh! I just can't get that Psycho Ball to come out! You're just going to
have to show me! Come on, Athena! It's time to fight. I'll be studying
your moves so I can use them after this fight!"
Athena: "Hey! It's really not that easy, you know...?"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. TRUE SAIKI
Athena: "Your evil plans end here! I will stop you!"
Saiki: "Psycho Powers, eh? You seem to be closer to us than to human
beings...."
Athena: "What's that supposed to mean!? I'm nothing like you!"
Saiki: "Hm? Do you not understand? Or are you just playing dumb? Either way,
you will soon find out how narrow-minded humans really are! Killing you
off before you've experienced total despair is merciful, is it not?"
ATHENA ASAMIYA VS. DARK ASH
Athena: "This ominous force.... These black flames! You're not Ash, are you?"
Ash: "Who cares!? Just shut up! All your talk about love and peace makes me
retch! Jealousy and hatred are so much more appropiate for humans! These
are your true dark desires! And our master shall swallow these desires of
yours, and use them to come back to life once more!"
Athena: "No.... I won't let you! Even if I have to lay down my life, I'll find
a way to stop you!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. BENIMARU NIKAIDO
Benimaru1: "Wow, another impostor! Just another peril of being famous, I
guess...."
Benimaru2: "Hey, you're the fake! A fake doesn't look better than the original,
so how do you explain that I'm so much better looking than you are?"
Benimaru1: "Those are fighting words! I'll show you who's the most beautiful and
the strongest of us two!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. BILLY KANE
Benimaru: "Hey, you're a pretty swell guy! You want to help me gain more fans,
huh?"
Billy: "What the heck are you talkin' about? Have you been huffing your nail
polish again?"
Benimaru: "It's elementary, really. If I use my skills to gain glorious victory
over you, all the lovely ladies will go crazy over me!"
Billy: "This isn't the movies, you twit! What planet have you been living on!?"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. CHIN GENTSAI
Chin: "Sorry, young man.... It seems I couldn't control myself...."
Benimaru: "Huh? What's the matter, gramps? Starting to go a bit senile, are we?"
Chin: "Oh, no, no. I just felt it would be good to apologize in advance while
you could still hear it. Unconscious people don't hear much, you know."
Benimaru: "Is that right? I think you may be overlooking an even longer
difference between us. The difference in looks! Beauty is strength!
Everyone knows that!"
Chin: "Then Grandma must be the strongest on the planet! It sure as heck isn't
you!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. CLARK STEEL
Benimaru: "I know what you're going through, pal! I've got a bunch of reckless
teammates as well!"
Clark: "The Colonel can be a bit of a bother at times and backing him up is no
cakewalk, but...."
Benimaru: "You wouldn't have it any other way, right?"
Clark: "Damn straight. I guess we're both gluttons for punishment, eh, pretty
boy?"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. DUO LON
Benimaru: "Hey, long time no see! You look, uh, moody. As usual. While you're
not in the same league as I am, it still saddens me to see you waste
your handsome face! Stop being so dour!"
Duo Lon: "I must admit...sometimes I envy the way you live."
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE
Elisabeth: "You have been of great help to me in the past.... But I cannot
retreat!"
Benimaru: "Don't worry about it! You don't owe me so much that I'd expect you to
simply surrender. Victory is meaningless if it is not earned by your
own hands. Now, let us dance, mademoiselle!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. GORO DAIMON
Benimaru: "Let's go, Goro! I mean, uh, Daimon Sensei!"
Daimon: "Hm. Let's see how much you've grown."
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. HWA JAI
Benimaru: "Whoa there, buddy. Your ugliness might be contagious, and I can't
afford to take that chance. You just stay right there."
Hwa Jai: "You must have some kind of death wish! I'll rearrange that precious
face of yours, and I'll do it for free!"
Benimaru: "The only one in this conversation in need of some facial
reconstruction is you. I'm not a professional, but rest assured, I'm
positive that it can't come out any worse!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. IORI YAGAMI
Iori: "You.... Why are you here?"
Benimaru: "I don't want to get between you and Kyo, but I can't just let what
you did to Shingo go unpunished!"
Iori: "Are you that eager to die? Suit yourself...."
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. IORI YAGAMI (EX)
EX Iori: "Ugh, you again.... Just tell me where he is."
Benimaru: "'You again'? Isn't that something Kyo should be saying? I'm sure he's
sick of running into you by now."
EX Iori: "...Die."
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. JOE HIGASHI
Benimaru: "Hey, champ! Look, we all know that you're going to lose, so could you
do me a favor and fall over a bit more dramatically?"
Joe: "Should you be up? Your medication obviously isn't working yet! I'm the
champ because I don't lose! In fact, someone must have torn the L section
out of my dictionary, cuz I don't know the meaning of the word lose!"
Benimaru: "Well, I guess I'll play teacher, then. It's time for you to get
reacquainted with the bitter taste of defeat!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. K'
K': "You again.... You're the last person I wanna see right now."
Benimaru: "I'm actually pleasantly surprised you even remember me! And here I
thought you didn't care...."
K': "Oh, I remember you.... How could I forget such a royal jackass?"
Benimaru: "Still need to work on those people skills, I see.... You'll never get
far in life by alienating everyone you meet."
K': "I'll live my life however I want. Let's go already."
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. KIM KAPHWAN
Benimaru: "It's admirable that you want to get a bunch of criminals together to
reform them. But shouldn't you let someone else with more strength do
that!? I don't recall ever seeing you in the finals!"
Kim: "Don't try to taunt me. I will not be swayed by your trifling words. If you
want to know how strong I really am, allow me to give you a
demonstration!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. KING
Benimaru: "Hello, Miss King! How are those beautiful, taut, and exquisitely
lethal legs of yours doing today?"
King: "That's no way to greet a lady! You still haven't changed your raunchy
playboy ways, I see. But if you are that interested in checking out my
legs, I'll make sure to show you all your eyes can handle."
Benimaru: "Oh my, this is gonna be a rough date.... But you know I can't say no
to a pretty lady!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. KULA DIAMOND
Benimaru: "Ten, no, let's make that five more years.... You're way too
young...."
Kula: "What? What are you talking about? Are you talking about me?"
Benimaru: "Man, if only I could have first met you five years in the future.
That would've been so much better."
Kula: "Better? How come? What's supposed to happen in five years? Come on, tell
me, tell me!"
Benimaru: "Nope, just forget what I said! I'm a horrible person for mentioning
it, so please forgive me and never bring this up!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Benimaru: "I think we've already said everything we could possibly say, so let's
just get going, Kyo!"
Kyo: "Gotcha! But don't burn out right at the start, okay? It's been a while, so
I want to enjoy this!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
EX Kyo: "Let's go, Benimaru! No holds barred! Let's have some fun!"
Benimaru: "OK! Let me show you how real men fight their battles!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. LEONA
Benimaru: "Rowrr. Hello there, miss! How about after we're done getting to know
each other in the ring we get to know each other over dinner?"
Leona: "...Okay. I have nothing to do after my mission."
Benimaru: "Hm.... I guess you must like what you see as much as I do."
Leona: "Yup. And what I see is that you have no chance of winning."
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Mai: "Get ready, Mr. Ladies' Man! My Shiranui flames will make you hot and
bothered but not in the way you like!"
Benimaru: "Sorry, kitten, but that's not gonna happen! The sparks that will fly
between us will leave you so charged that your legs will go weak."
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. MATURE
Mature: "Time for bed, boy. May you forever rest in peace!"
Benimaru: "Oh, don't call me 'boy'! I think we both know I'm too old for that.
We're both adults here, so why don't the two of us have some fun,
Miss Mature?"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. MAXIMA
Benimaru: "Oh man, when is KOF going to close this cyborg loophole already. How
many more KOFs are going to be ruined by metal men? Think about me
for a change, won't you? It's so tiring having to punch that heavy
body of yours all the time."
Maxima: "I have to compliment your level of narcissism. In that respect, you are
certainly the world leader."
Benimaru: "Thanks, Mister Maxima. In return, I'll give you a very valuable piece
of data. The data you gathered from me when we teamed up is probably
not going to do you much good."
Maxima: "I've made a note of that valuable piece of information. So let me give
you a piece of valuable information in return: Cyborgs evolve too."
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. MR. KARATE
Benimaru: "I'm sure you're not going to tell me whether you're wearing that mask
for show or on a lark or something.... That makes you the legendary
Mr. Karate.... I shudder to think what kind of demonic face might be
hidden behind that mask."
Mr. Karate: "If you want to see my true face, then you're going to have to
defeat me!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. RAIDEN
Benimaru: "I have to say I feel comfortable fighting a wrestling heel. You're so
going to be defeated! I love seeing the acts you planned for losing!"
Raiden: "Sorry to disappoint you, but the only acting the crowd is gonna see
today is when the referee tells the crowd that you're going to
recover."
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. RALF JONES
Benimaru: "You sure are rowdy for your age. I thought you needed to be
disciplined to be a soldier."
Ralf: "Stow it, you little punk! I'm only like this when I'm playing fighter! If
this was the battlefield, you'd be dead before you even noticed me!"
Benimaru: "Spare me the war stories. All I know is that there's no way I'll lose
to a guy who treats KOF like he's 'playing fighter'!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Robert: "It's been a while since we've had a Clash of the Hunks. Gotta make sure
we look good while doing this, right!"
Benimaru: "Clash of the Hunks!? You don't seriously think you're anywhere near
close in the looks department, do you!? I hate to break it to you,
but we've never had a Clash of the Hunks. You need more than one hunk
for that to be possible!"
Robert: "You're so overconfident it isn't even funny! I'll show you who's a
hunk!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Benimaru: "This goes for Daimon, too, but I can't stand your spirit and
willpower speech. Change your tune every once in a while!"
Ryo: "What's the matter? We haven't even started yet and you're already looking
pale! Are you eating proper meals? You can't just be concerned with your
figure! You need calories, protein...a balanced diet! Bad diet means bad
willpower, and only spirit and willpower matter!"
Benimaru: "That's exactly what I'm talking about! You sound like a self-help
book! I don't know if you're going to try and hit me or charge me
$99 for your seminar!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. SAIKI
Saiki: "Everything mankind has ever made...nothing but an illusion!"
Benimaru: "What are you talking about? How can you say something like that when
such a fine specimen of the human species stands right in front of
you! Marvel at my beauty and my strength! It's not an illusion, baby,
it's all real!"
Saiki: "How wrong you are. Your beauty and strength will soon vanish into
absolute oblivion!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "Are you the one that Duo Lon speaks so highly of? Show me your strength!"
Benimaru: "That's fine by me, but have you reserved a bed yet? Overcrowded
hospitals are turning people away these days, so you'd better make
sure you're well prepared!"
Shen: "Hm. You dissed me and the entire health care industry with one insult.
Your mouth is definitely up to snuff. Let's see if your skill is worthy!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. SIE KENSOU
Benimaru: "Ni hao, Wonderboy! You managed to pick yourself up then? Is it true
that you managed to break out of your slump?"
Kensou: "Of course I did! I am the Genius Psycho Soldier, Sie Kensou!"
Benimaru: "I'm afraid I'm going to have to collect royalties, kiddo. You see,
the word 'genius' was invented for me! I hold the rights!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Benimaru: "I hope Yuri isn't around to hear this, but, man, you're so stubborn
they should turn you into a monument! I can't imagine what it must be
like living under your roof. I feel sorry for your kids, I really
do."
Takuma: "Did you say something, young man? I didn't hear anything of note, but
your tone did make you seem awfully sure of yourself."
Benimaru: "Are you trying to imply that I talk too much? That's just what I do
to warm up! Who are you to judge!?"
Takuma: "Hmph. Very well. I suppose all that matters is whether or not you can
keep this fight interesting."
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. TERRY BOGARD
Benimaru: "My kick is more powerful than a stun gun! Are you ready to get
zapped!?"
Terry: "Come on, man. Those weak taunts won't faze me. We're not in kindergarten
anymore."
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. VICE
Vice: "I can't stand effeminate types like you! There's just something about
your face that makes me want to rip it apart!"
Benimaru: "Oh dear, jealous of my looks, are you? Don't hate me because I'm
beautiful, Miss Vice."
Vice: "That does it. I'm going to start by tearing out that tongue of yours!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Yuri: "Hmmm.... Today I think I'll be studying your moves for a change,
Benimaru."
Benimaru: "I'm always up for teaching eager students! Heck, I'd be glad to give
you a personal hands-on lesson...."
Yuri: "Really!? Okay, see you this Sunday at our dojo! I'll bring my dad!"
Benimaru: "Huh? U-Uh, it's just that I have all the equipment we'd need back at
my apartment...."
Yuri: "Ha ha, I'm kidding of course! Robert already warned me about you! He told
me that whatever happens I should never be alone in the same room with
you!"
Benimaru: "Why that...! Always sticking his nose where it doesn't belong!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "Soon I will obtain power over the absolute truth! The absolute,
inviolable power called Time! And you will be the main course at the
ensuing feast! Your comb's a bit too gaudy for you to be a turkey,
though!"
Benimaru: "I do like that you are thinking about throwing a party where I'm the
center of attention. But the only party you're going to be attending
is my victory celebration. The one everyone's throwing for me after
I mop the floor with you!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "You make me laugh. Do you really think a mere human can stand in our
path!?"
Benimaru: "Yeah, I'm definitely a mere human.... And you're about to know the
stinging humiliation of being defeated by one!"
Ash: "The future of you worthless humans lies in the palm of my hand. Know your
place, maggot!"
BILLY KANE VS. BILLY KANE
Billy1: "What the heck do you think you're doin'!? Geese only needs one right-
hand man!"
Billy2: "Well, obviously. He only has one right hand, now doesn't he? That means
that you're not needed around here!"
Billy1: "We'll just see about that, buddy! I'm gonna rip that fake face off so
everyone can see who's the real Billy around here!"
BILLY KANE VS. CHIN GENTSAI
Chin: "Listen to me. Sometimes losing is necessary. Some things can only be
learned through defeat. Do us both a favor, young man, and let me win
this one without a fuss?"
Billy: "Huh!? Are you senile!? Who would fall for a trick like that?"
Chin: "No dice? What a shame.... This all went a lot more smoothly in my own
head...."
BILLY KANE VS. CLARK STEEL
Billy: "Hey hey hey! Bring it on! I'm ready for you and your outdated sunglasses
anytime! You might have a little trouble putting those things on your
face once I'm done remodeling your nose!"
Clark: "It's always the ones with the biggest mouths who go down the fastest."
BILLY KANE VS. DUO LON
Duo Lon: "There is nothing more sorrowful than to be betrayed by one's own
master. Are you sure your master is worth such undying loyalty?"
Billy: "What're you gabblin' about? I'm Billy Kane, the Emperor's right-hand
man! Even if he does betray me, I'll never do the same to him!"
Duo Lon: "Your resolution is admirable. I'm sorry to have asked such an
impertinent question."
BILLY KANE VS. ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE
Elisabeth: "So you are the right hand of that Geese Howard.... What is a simple
thug like you doing here?"
Billy: "Are you kiddin' me, you puffed-up pantywaist? What do you think a guy
like me is doin' all the way out here!? I can't stand people like you,
who think they're better than everyone else just because they were born
with a silver spoon in their mouths!"
BILLY KANE VS. GORO DAIMON
Daimon: "I won't complain that you're using a weapon...but I still believe you
lack what it takes to be a true martial artist. Don't think you can get
past me with that scrawny body of yours."
Billy: "I ain't here to listen to your stories, man! I came here to whack you in
the face!"
BILLY KANE VS. HWA JAI
Hwa Jai: "Heh.... Long time no see, Billy. You still letting Geese boss you
around?"
Billy: "Who do you think you're talking to, huh? Did the cobra poison start
eating away at your brain or something?"
Hwa Jai: "Watch your mouth, stick-for-brains! Don't think I'm still the guy I
used to be!"
Billy: "I'm gonna send you on a one-way trip to hell, buddy! It's been a while
since I had a chance to bash your face in!"
BILLY KANE VS. IORI YAGAMI
Iori: "You're hopeless, aren't you? How many times do you need to die before you
give up!?"
Billy: "Shut your piehole! You won't be using it for anything but screaming soon
anyway."
Iori: "Always such a loudmouth.... Very well, I'll have some fun with you...."
BILLY KANE VS. IORI YAGAMI (EX)
Billy: "Heh heh! Long time no see, Yagami! I'll finally get to tear you to
pieces today!"
EX Iori: "Fool.... Are you still dreaming?"
Billy: "Yeah, insult me all you want. I'm so excited I don't even care! Let's
get this show on the road!"
BILLY KANE VS. JOE HIGASHI
Billy: "Are you ready? I'll make sure you ain't ever gonna bother my little
sister again!"
Joe: "Hey now, that's no way for an older brother to behave! You can't keep your
little sis on a leash forever, you know?"
Billy: "I've had enough of your backtalk! I'm gonna turn you into crocodile
food!"
BILLY KANE VS. K'
Billy: "Hey, kid, what is it you're always saying in times like this? 'I can
handle it myself!'?"
K': "...Shut your mouth, punk. Are you looking to get fried or something?"
Billy: "That's my line, buddy! You're not the only one around here who knows how
to work with flames!"
BILLY KANE VS. KIM KAPHWAN
Kim: "How much longer are you going to continue working for Geese? Don't you
think it would be best for your sister if you became an honest man?"
Billy: "Why does everyone keep tryin' to use Lily to make a point!? If you've
got somethin' to say, just come at me already! I'll make sure that mouth
of yours gets shut for good!"
BILLY KANE VS. KING
King: "Just let me tell you this in advance: your kind isn't welcome in my bar.
If you want a drink, you'll have to go find some seedy bar on the
outskirts of town. You'll feel so much more at home there anyway."
Billy: "I ain't interested in your drinks, lady. I'm only interested in seeing
you bleed!"
BILLY KANE VS. KULA DIAMOND
Kula: "That outfit looks kinda chilly. You sure you don't need a change of
clothes? You might catch a cold running around like that!"
Billy: "Mind your own business! If I were you, I'd worry more about getting
burned by my staff!"
BILLY KANE VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Kyo: "Hey, man, are you sure you want to be using that stupid little stick?
Shouldn't you have a gun, like any other self-respecting gang member?"
Billy: "Watch your mouth! I'll have you know that my Three-Section Staff is a
hell of a lot more dangerous than any old peashooter! Sorry for having
to beat you at your own game, but I'm gonna whip you into a pile of
dust with this thing!"
BILLY KANE VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
Billy: "1800 years, huh? Sorry, buddy, but I'm not scared of some moldy old
fighting style! I'm gonna take my staff and knock you into orbit, along
with your stupid little fire!"
EX Kyo: "It's because of big-mouthed louts like you that people are able to
appreciate just how great I am. Thanks!"
BILLY KANE VS. LEONA
Leona: "Please leave quietly.... This is no place for amateurs."
Billy: "You're callin' me an amateur? Me!? An amateur!? You'll live to regret
those words, girly!"
Leona: "You have no self-control.... That is proof you are no professional...."
BILLY KANE VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Mai: "Still, I can't believe something like this could actually happen...."
Billy: "Huh? What are you talkin' about, woman!? And why are you starin' at me
like that!?"
Mai: "I just can't believe a twisted individual like you could have such a sweet
and innocent little sister.... Hey, are you sure you two are actually
related? Maybe your mom was really good friends with the mailman or
something...?"
Billy: "Shut up! Oh, you're gonna pay for that one, woman! I'll mash you into a
pulp and dump you in South Town Bay!"
BILLY KANE VS. MATURE
Mature: "What is Geese's right-hand man doing here? You're not interested in
Orochi's powers again, are you?"
Billy: "I ain't here for business today! There's something that I owe somebody!
You're just a minor nuisance along the way. You'll regret ever getting
involved with Yagami!"
Mature: "So you're after Yagami? I don't even think he knows you exist."
BILLY KANE VS. MAXIMA
Billy: "Hey, Hunk O' Junk! You're not gonna complain about me using a staff,
are you?"
Maxima: "Even if I did, something tells me you wouldn't put it away anyway."
Billy: "Of course not! You think I'm stupid or something!? I'm facing off
against a bloody tank here!"
BILLY KANE VS. MR. KARATE
Billy: "Hey! That mask you're wearing! I'm gonna take it home and give it to
Geese as a present!"
Mr. Karate: "Hmph.... Very well. If you win, you can do whatever you want with
it. Of course, if you lose, you may have to forfeit your own
life."
BILLY KANE VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "Bwa ha ha! Lookin' good, Billy! Didn't think I'd run into you here!
Anyway, let me ask you something.... Can I interest you in joining my
team for the next tournament?"
Billy: "Don't go gettin' any ideas, Raiden! If we join up, I won't be on your
team. You'll be on MY team! Capiche?"
Raiden: "Geh heh heh.... You'd better be able to prove you've got what it takes.
Don't think this is gonna be a walk in the park!"
BILLY KANE VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "I may not be one to talk, but...man, you're young."
Billy: "Huh!? What're you talkin' about!? If you think you can treat me like
some dumb kid, you've got another thing comin'!"
Ralf: "Nah, nah, that's not what I mean. It's just...you know, your outfit."
Billy: "Who cares what I'm wearing!? Aaargh! That's it, I'm gonna bash your
face in just for the heck of it!"
BILLY KANE VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Robert: "My family's got a nice cozy villa in South Town. I'd really appreciate
if if you could cut it out with all the bad stuff you guys are pulling
there."
Billy: "If you don't like it, why don't you leave? That place belongs to Geese!"
Robert: "I guess you're too far down on the social ladder to do anything about
it, huh? Alright, I'll just handle things myself, then!"
BILLY KANE VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "I'm not interested in getting involved with gangs, and the mafia, and
stuff, but I'll be more than happy to fight you as a practitioner of the
martial arts!"
Billy: "You gotta be kiddin' me! I don't think anyone's ever called me a martial
artist before. Now, let's see some of that Kyokugen style that Geese
always speaks so highly of!"
BILLY KANE VS. SAIKI
Billy: "Wipe that annoying smirk off your face, whitey. You really don't want me
angry with you, I can tell you that."
Saiki: "Or what? What on earth could you possibly do to me? Do you honestly
think you can kill me or something? You should know your place, you
piece of trash! No one can defeat the Ruler of Time!"
BILLY KANE VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "Heh.... This is strange.... I get the feeling that we're not all that
different, you and I."
Billy: "Us!? The same!? All we have in common is that we both like to pick
fights! You can't even begin to compare your strength to mine! But
you'll find out soon enough!"
BILLY KANE VS. SIE KENSOU
Billy: "Outta my way, kid! If you're gonna die anyway, you might as well stay in
bed and wait for it to happen!"
Kensou: "Hold on a sec, old man! Don't think you can get away with treating me
like a kid!"
Billy: "Oh? You think you can do something about it, huh? Let's see what you can
do then, little boy!"
BILLY KANE VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "You and I aren't even in the same league! Get out of my sight this
instant, and take that silly stick with you!"
Billy: "Don't be so sure of that, old man! We'll see who's no match for who
here!"
Takuma: "Indeed we shall.... Geese is going to wonder why he ever hired you...."
BILLY KANE VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "Hey! Long time no see, Billy! You still bein' bossed around by Geese?"
Billy: "Heh! I don't need my boss to tell me to break your face in!"
Terry: "Oh, man, that hurts! OK then, let's get going!"
BILLY KANE VS. VICE
Vice: "I have no time to waste on petty hugs! I'm sure we can arrange something
if you're particularly interested in dying today, though."
Billy: "We'll just see about that, Orochi lady! When I'm done with you, they'll
need to scrape your remains off the pavement!"
Vice: "It's complete buffoons like you that keep life interesting. I'm
continually amazed at how idiotic humans can be."
BILLY KANE VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Billy: "Too late to withdraw from the tournament now, missy! You'd better give
it all you've got!"
Yuri: "Whatever! Something tells me it'll be you cowering on the floor in a few
moments!"
BILLY KANE VS. TRUE SAIKI
Billy: "Wow.... Another one of those weird monster types! Hey, I wonder what
happens if I catch 'em all! Maybe they'll call me an Elite Trainer or
something!" *
Saiki: "Do you realize who you're talking to? I swear, the stupidity of you
humans knows no boundaries. It is your destiny to be purged. Not only
from your planet, but from the very fabric of history!"
* Author's note: Never thought I would see a Pokemon reference in a KOF game.
BILLY KANE VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "Step aside, peasant. Don't stand in my way. Or do you have a death wish?"
Billy: "Pff.... Look who's got himself an attitude! Ain't no one dyin' here
today but you, boyo! And I ain't even gonna grant you a last request!"
Ash: "Ignorance is a sin. In your case, it is the sole base of your strength.
Had you been smarter, you would have not spoken those words...."
CHIN GENTSAI VS. CHIN GENTSAI
Chin1: "What's this!? Where did this wizened old man come from?"
Chin2: "You know, you're not exactly the picture of vigor and youth yourself,
you know? But wait a second.... Do I know you from somewhere? I get the
impression that we've met before...."
Chin1: "Yes, I was thinking the exact same thing. I wonder where I've seen you
before...."
CHIN GENTSAI VS. CLARK STEEL
Chin: "Hey you, with the shaded glasses. You're still young, but you show
promise!"
Clark: "Are you talking to me, old man? Flattery won't get you any kind of
special treatment."
Chin: "No, I was just thinking how much you reminded me of myself when I was a
young man."
Clark: "...!"
Chin: "Just kidding! Ho ho ho! Your fancy glasses may conceal your eyes, but I
could still see your shock!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. DUO LON
Chin: "Tell me, young lad.... What is it you are fighting for?"
Duo Lon: "What am I fighting for? That's not a question you should ask an
assassin, old man."
Chin: "You're not letting anyone get close to you, are you? That's a shame.
You're wasting your youth. You'll have plenty of time to be lonely when
you're older."
CHIN GENTSAI VS. ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE
Chin: "Ho ho ho! I don't know exactly what is wrong, but I can sense that you
carry a great deal of uncertainty."
Elisabeth: "That is very perceptive of you. I'm not exactly at my most
confident at the moment."
Chin: "But you still choose to fight.... All right, let's see what you can do."
Elisabeth: "Let us begin. This fight will assist me in regaining my confidence!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. GORO DAIMON
Chin: "Phew.... I'm getting too old to fight you."
Daimon: "Oh, don't be modest, Master Chin.... I would greatly appreciate it if
you were to grant me the pleasure of fighting you!"
Chin: "Oh well, I guess I can oblige you one more time...."
CHIN GENTSAI VS. HWA JAI
Hwa Jai: "............"
Chin: "What is it? Why are you staring at me like that?"
Hwa Jai: "Is this old dude gonna suddenly grow twice his size...? Nah, he
couldn't. Maybe he can teleport...."
Chin: "I don't know what you're whispering to yourself, but if you don't attack
me soon, I'll have to go first!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. IORI YAGAMI
Chin: "Say, kid.... Have you thought that losing your flames might be a blessing
in disguise? An opportunity to change your way of life?"
Iori: "Are those your last words? It's a shame that you didn't think of
something better."
CHIN GENTSAI VS. IORI YAGAMI (EX)
EX Iori: "This is no place for decrepit old fools.... You're only stinking up
the place, old man."
Chin: "You should know that darkness has never served to help anyone.... But I
think it's too late for anything I say to serve you."
EX Iori: "What serves me is only something that I can decide for myself."
CHIN GENTSAI VS. JOE HIGASHI
Joe: "Let it go, gramps! Why would you waste the last years of your life getting
pounded on in these things? I don't want people to accuse me of abusing
the elderly, so just retire already and drink lots of green tea. It's got
antioxidants!"
Chin: "You may have a point.... Okay, I'll take that Muay Thai champion belt
from you and retire!"
Joe: "Ha ha ha! That's a good one, old man! You are very shrewd, very wise.
You're a very cunning opponent!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. K'
Chin: "Oh! I'm glad to see you! I've got another favor to ask of you...."
K': "Shut up, old man! I'm sick of being used by people!"
Chin: "That's not very nice.... You should be a bit kinder to the elderly! We
don't have much time to live, you know?"
K': "You must be getting senile. Maybe some punches will jog your brain."
CHIN GENTSAI VS. KIM KAPHWAN
Kim: "Master Chin! Please give this inexperienced young man some advice!"
Chin: "People look up to you as a teacher in your own country. Surely an old man
like me has nothing to teach you? But if I had to tell you something....
Perhaps you should learn how to relax!"
Kim: "H-How to...relax? I'm sorry, Master, but I do not understand!"
Chin: "A bowstring that is strung tightly will easily snap. That is, it needs to
be loosened when it isn't being used. The same goes for human beings. If
you devote every waking hour guiding your students this intensely, the
constant strain is going to make you snap at some point. But these are
merely the musings of a tired, old man. You don't need to pay them any
heed."
Kim: "Not at all! I see now what I've been lacking all this time! I will carry
those words in my heart forever!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. KING
Chin: "Say, I was wondering, could I get you to invite Grandma into your team
next time?"
King: "What!? Are you crazy!? Of course not!"
Chin: "Why not!? Grandma's a lot stronger than I am, and she's the world's
hottest babe!"
King: "I honestly can't tell if you're being serious or not.... Just thinking
about this is messing with my concentration...."
CHIN GENTSAI VS. KULA DIAMOND
Chin: "Hello, young lady! What say we leave this place and go and enjoy a spot
of sunshine somewhere?"
Kula: "Will you give me some ice cream? If you give me some ice cream, I'll
think about it!"
Chin: "Sorry, but I don't have any ice cream on me. Grandma did give me some
dumplings you can have."
Kula: "I don't want dumplings! I want ice cream! ICE CREAM! NOW!"
Chin: "That's odd.... I would've thought that big guy you have with you
would've liked some dumplings...."
CHIN GENTSAI VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Chin: "Life is a lot longer than most young people think. There's no need to
rush anything."
Kyo: "Huh? What are you talking about, gramps?"
Chin: "I'm just saying, you shouldn't worry about repeating a school year five
or ten times. You'll get it eventually. Everything in its' own time."
Kyo: "Why you! I hate when you act like you're going to say something wise, but
it's really just a wisecrack! Bring it on, gramps!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
Chin: "Well now.... How about you show me your strength, son?"
EX Kyo: "I've got no problem showing you, gramps, but don't think I'm going to
take it easy on you just because you're old!"
Chin: "Ho ho ho! That's what I like to hear! You're gonna need all you've got
if you don't want to get hurt."
EX Kyo: "What worries me most about you is that you don't seem to realize when
you're starting to ramble."
CHIN GENTSAI VS. LEONA
Chin: "You must have seen a lot in your young life already.... But take comfort
in knowing that you are following the right path. Never waver, listen to
your heart, and always stay devoted to your cause!"
Leona: "I will not stop.... Thank you."
Chin: "Ho ho ho! Let me do what I can to help you increase your mental
fortitude!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Chin: "Hoo, that's a lovely sight to behold! I'm sure glad I managed to live
this long! But tell me something.... Do you wear those breezy,
fluttering clothes all year? Don't you catch a cold in the winter?"
Mai: "Uhhh.... No, I guess.... Can we just get on with this fight?"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. MATURE
Chin: "Oh dear, you again? What is the Orochi Clan up to this time?"
Mature: "I have no time to waste on dispatching you, old man. Go lie in the sun
somewhere!"
Chin: "I'd love to, but no one's ever willing to let me...."
CHIN GENTSAI VS. MAXIMA
Maxima: "Old fighters like you are always trouble. You possess some kind of
power that doesn't translate into numbers well."
Chin: "Ho ho ho! What are you being so cautious about? I'm just a simple old
man!"
Maxima: "There's no way I'm falling for that one. Your physical attributes may
be small, but I'm not underestimating you!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. MR. KARATE
Chin: "I see.... I suppose even the wildest demon would think twice before
challenging you."
Mr. Karate: "So you say, but there you stand and smile at me. Let me peel away
that 'kindly old man' mask."
Chin: "Ho ho ho, scary! Looks like I'm going to have to take you seriously!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "Bwa ha ha! Look at how tiny you are! Do you want me to give you a
handicap?"
Chin: "I should offer you one for being less than half my age!"
Raiden: "Gah ha ha! You're a funny old man! No handicaps it is!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "I'm sure I'm gonna get into trouble with human rights groups if I start
fighting with you."
Chin: "Oh? So you intend to forfeit? Thank you, young man."
Ralf: "Don't get ahead of yourself, old man. I never said that. Where'd you
get that idea from?"
Chin: "Pfft, you've got a pretty small mind to go with that big body. I'm
asking you nicely to step aside. I'm not gonna live very long anyway!"
Ralf: "Shut it, gramps! With your will to live, you'd probably survive the end
of the world."
CHIN GENTSAI VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Chin: "Having a friend to compete with is a good way to improve your strength.
I wish I could show my disciples that."
Robert: "I hear ya! You've got plenty of students that look like they need a
strong hand of guidance."
Chin: "Ho ho ho! If you ask me, you're quite the problem child yourself! That
reminds me, the other day Takuma was complaining about his students'
lack of discipline, too!"
Robert: "I'm sure he was talking about the new trainees. I'm a lot quicker on
the uptake! I'm a genius!"
Chin: "Actually, I think it's precisely that lack of humility that is causing
your teacher so much of a headache...."
CHIN GENTSAI VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "I know a lot about Kung Fu, but all of my knowledge just seems to go out
the window when I look at you...."
Chin: "Make no mistake, young grass-jumping creature! Kung Fu is more profound
than you can imagine! It would take you more than 4000 years to
comprehend all of it!"
Ryo: "Then I'll fight you and learn just as much as I can from that!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. SAIKI
Chin: "Right.... Time to put an end to this. It's a dirty job, but someone's
gotta do it."
Saiki: "Put an end to this? If you're talking about your own life, I'll gladly
end that for you!"
Chin: "Oh, such an evil young man. I can't allow a crook like you to go
unpunished."
CHIN GENTSAI VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "Man, are you still going around fighting people!? Why don't you retire
already, you old monster!?"
Chin: "Ho ho ho, you're still the same brash youngster you've always been!
Still up to no good, eh?"
Shen: "Don't treat me like some kid! It's about time someone knocked you down a
peg, you smug old man!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. SIE KENSOU
Chin: "Hmmm.... It's been a while since I last entered a fight. I'm starting to
get a bit nervous...."
Kensou: "You're kidding, right? With your long career, surely you couldn't have
anything to be nervous about."
Chin: "Good! I will take care of you now and put some life back into these old
bones!"
Kensou: "Okay, now I know you're joking but it's starting to freak me out. Stop
messing around, Teach! I'm not gonna let you win that easily!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Chin: "Ho ho ho! You don't seem to be able to control your fighting spirit.
You're still young! I envy that...."
Takuma: "Hearing that from a senior citizen puts me at a loss for words. So
I'll just let my fists do the talking!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. TERRY BOGARD
Chin: "Tung must look upon you with pride all the way from Heaven. Ho ho ho!"
Terry: "Yeah! No, wait a minute! Master Tung isn't dead!"
Chin: "Oh? He isn't? I heard he died peacefully after he overexerted himself."
Terry: "Well, actually that did almost happen a couple times.... But he's still
alive and kicking, just like you!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. VICE
Vice: "Are you still fighting? That's incredible!"
Chin: "Ho ho ho.... I'm as healthy as I ever was! I'll gladly show you if you
don't believe me."
Vice: "Time to bring the curtains down on your life, old man! Your life's
pointless stage show is getting canceled!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Yuri: "Hey, Mister, are you sure you're okay? I think you should take it
easy...."
Chin: "Ho ho ho! I'll be fine. I'm a lot more experienced than your father
actually! Heck, if you're not scared of me, just try and attack me!
Whatever angle you like!"
Yuri: "Maybe I just will! Here we go, Mister!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "Hey gramps, why do you insist on living with that decrepit husk of a
body?"
Chin: "Well, if I had to pinpoint one thing, I'd say it's because there are
still so many tasty things in this world I haven't eaten yet. So I don't
want to die for a while yet. How about you? What keeps you going?"
Saiki: "You don't seem to understand who you're talking to, you doddering old
fool. I came here to bring death to you all! I'm going to start with
you! I think you've lived long enough! You're never going to eat
anything ever again!"
CHIN GENTSAI VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "Tell me, old man, how does it feel to know that you will be dying
shortly? Humans cannot escape the aging process. In other words, they
cannot escape time!"
Chin: "That is why we leave things to posterity. What we don't have time to
finish in one generation can be passed on to the next. The things I was
unable to accomplish will be done by my disciples."
Ash: "You're such idiotic creatures! What could you possibly leave those worms
to inherit? Soon everything humans have ever done and everything left to
future humans will cease to exist! Your precious pupils and goals will
turn to ash!"
CLARK STEEL VS. CLARK STEEL
Clark1: "That's an impressive likeness you have there. The intel guys must be
white as sheets right about now."
Clark2: "You might be able to fool people by playing dress-up, but you can't
fake strength!"</pre><pre id="faqspan-3">
Clark1: "I see. That makes sense. The original couldn't possibly lose to a
copy."
Clark2: "Right. Let's see which of us will get his cover knocked off!"
CLARK STEEL VS. DUO LON
Clark: "I'm not in a hurry or anything, but one day, I'm going to have to bring
you in and ask you some very serious questions. An important part of
our organization's directives is to gather information on any known hit
squads."
Duo Lon: "As you wish.... We could do it right now if you like. But I'm afraid
the only thing you'd learn is how fearsome the Hizoku really are."
CLARK STEEL VS. ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE
Elisabeth: "Please retreat. This situation does not require military
intervention."
Clark: "Oh sure, whatever you say, Ma'am. You think I'm gonna go home just like
that? I'm on a mission here! If you want to get rid of me, you're gonna
have to remove me by force. No hard feelings, eh?"
CLARK STEEL VS. GORO DAIMON
Daimon: "Your strong composure hides a will to fight. I can sense it...."
Clark: "Really? Man, I gotta start working on a poker face for my chi. As
soldiers, our desire is to defeat the enemy while masking our desire to
fight and our violent nature.
CLARK STEEL VS. HWA JAI
Clark: "I thought that Muay Thai was a sacred art. But looking at your obvious
lack of refinement, I may have to change my stance."
Hwa Jai: "Shut up, you! I won't have you defiling Muay Thai like that!"
Clark: "I was saying that you are the one defiling it. Apparently, your lack of
refinement is the same as your lack of intelligence."
CLARK STEEL VS. IORI YAGAMI
Clark: "You've lost your flames, but you're still strong as ever. Once again,
HQ's given us bad intel."
Iori: "You know this, and yet you still dare stand before me? It seems like you
can't blame your impending death on bad intel...."
Clark: "I'll stand in front of a tank if that's what my mission requires. And,
oh yeah, I'll survive it too, because that's what a pro does! But I'm
not fighting a tank, I'm just fighting you, so let's get this over
with!"
CLARK STEEL VS. IORI YAGAMI (EX)
Clark: "It's not that you've done anything in particular, but I think I'm
going to have to arrest you anyway, just in case. I can't run the risk
of your erratic behavior interfering with our mission."
EX Iori: "It seems that you still do not understand what it means to come into
contact with me."
CLARK STEEL VS. JOE HIGASHI
Joe: "A joke of a pro wrestler who turned mercenary and put on shades. I'll
stamp 'Mission Failed' on your forehead real quick!"
Clark: "Man, you never change, do you? Where exactly do you get all that false
machismo from? Maybe if I break your arms you won't be able to pat
yourself on the back."
Joe: "What are you blabbing about? Save your nonsense until after you've won!"
CLARK STEEL VS. K'
Clark: "Those flames of yours are dangerous, sure.... But I know exactly how
to deal with them."
K': "It's always the same with you army types. Do you really believe
everything will go according to your simulations?"
Clark: "If there are any errors, they will be amended on the spot. But so far
you're behaving exactly as predicted."
K': "Then show me.... Show me exactly how you intended to stop me!"
CLARK STEEL VS. KIM KAPHWAN
Clark: "Look, you're free to choose whomever you want as a disciple.... But
could you at least keep all of them on a leash and prevent them from
appearing on stage?"
Kim: "I don't mean to be rude, but I'm afraid this is necessary for the
rehabilitation process. By fighting here and being evaluated by others,
they will gain spiritual insight and improvement."
Clark: "That's a nice way of teaching, but try thinking about the poor people
that have to fight them every once in a while!"
CLARK STEEL VS. KING
Clark: "A female bartender.... Or should I say a female bouncer? You look like
you've got a mean bite."
King: "My kicks will make your head pound more than a fifth of vodka. If you
take one shot of my kicks, it's goodnight!"
Clark: "Now I'm starting to get thirsty. I'll have the house special! On the
rocks!"
CLARK STEEL VS. KULA DIAMOND
Kula: "Hey, where's Seirah? Isn't she with you?"
Clark: "She's on a mission of her own. Why are you asking me, sweetheart?"
Kula: "It's just.... Seirah is always telling me how she has to clean up after
you guys...."
Clark: "What kind of stories has she been feeding this kid?"
CLARK STEEL VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Kyo: "Would you mind taking all that stuff off? I'd hate to set fire to any of
it."
Clark: "Hm? You mean my grenades? They're just duds. They're not live."
Kyo: "Whew, that's a relief. Now I can burn you to my heart's content!"
Clark: "Ha! You shouldn't be worried about my grenades exploding in your face,
son. You should be worried about my fists doing that.
CLARK STEEL VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
Clark: "You're always at the center of things, but it seems that not even you
know about what's going on this time."
EX Kyo: "Hey, it's not like I'm asking for all this trouble. Well, I can at
least relax a little thanks to you guys."
Clark: "We can't have you moving about too much, though. We still have a mission
to carry out."
CLARK STEEL VS. LEONA
Clark: "All right, the loser gets the winner's back, just like always. Got that,
Leona?"
Leona: "Understood. The loser will become the victor's backup."
Clark: "But no holding back, and no rigging the fight, okay? You know the
Colonel's views on that."
Leona: "Understood. Resuming mission...."
CLARK STEEL VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Clark: "Could you do me a favor and let our ladies join your team next time?"
Mai: "That sounds like fun! I'll gladly take care of them! I'll even teach them
to become strong and feminine like me!"
Clark: "On second thought, let's not do that. Just thinking about Whip and Leona
being molded in your image sends shivers down my spine...."
CLARK STEEL VS. MATURE
Clark: "I've got a couple of questions to ask you. Would you mind coming with me
for a moment?"
Mature: "Ha ha, I'm sorry, soldier boy, but you're going to need a better pickup
line than that."
Clark: "I thought it might come to this.... Oh well, luckily I came prepared."
CLARK STEEL VS. MAXIMA
Clark: "Oh, it's you again. I'm not quite sure how to deal with a cyborg in
battle...."
Maxima: "That's fine. Just get out of my way now, and I'll pretend my sensors
were on the fritz."
Clark: "I'm afraid I can't do that. Running away without a fight is not an
option for us. I do know how to deal with a tank, though. That seems
pretty applicable."
Maxima: "Oooh, scary! What's really scary is that you sound pretty serious
too...."
CLARK STEEL VS. MR. KARATE
Clark: "What kind of gimmicks are hidden in that mask of yours? How is it that
putting that thing on can turn you into a different person?"
Mr. Karate: "It is merely another face on the same person.... I have merely kept
it sealed until now."
Clark: "This must be that oriental magic I've heard so much about.... This would
be a good opportunity to learn about foreign cultures!"
Mr. Karate: "Can you feel it? The moment of your death is almost upon you!"
CLARK STEEL VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "You seem to be pretty buff for an amateur.... In any case, this is
where your tournament ends."
Clark: "An amateur, am I? I'll have you know I'm a professional mercenary. Well,
let's see if the professional wrestler can take down a professional
mercenary!"
CLARK STEEL VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "Hey, Clark! Don't go easy on me just because I'm your superior, okay?"
Clark: "And you don't hold back just because I'm your subordinate, Colonel!"
Ralf: "Good, good! Then let's...."
Clark: 'Play fighter!"
CLARK STEEL VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Robert: "Terrorists, kidnappers, I've had lots of bad guys after me ever since I
was a kid. Don't think I'm going to be frightened by some guy who's
chucking grenades all over the place."
Clark: "Are you comparing me to a terrorist? Those guys aren't nearly as
disciplined as I am. And if you can't even tell the difference between a
real grenade and a dummy one, then I'm gonna take your heroic tales with
a grain of salt...."
CLARK STEEL VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "You're the polar opposite to that army buddy of yours. But, you're both
quite formidable opponents."
Clark: "That is very kind of you to say, but you're not exactly a pushover
yourself, either. Our manual even states that we need to approach
Kyokugen fighters with utmost care. Let's see.... How should I go about
this? This is making me more nervous than disarming a bomb."
Ryo: "I can't help you with that, but I can give you some advice about
fighting.... Don't get hung up on the details and attack!"
CLARK STEEL VS. SAIKI
Clark: "I don't know what you're up to, but I'm going to take you into custody
anyway. If you have a problem with that, feel free to resist. It just
means that I'll have to take you by force."
Saiki: "*sigh* You think this is all going to go according to your plan, even
though you have no real strength to speak of? You'll never even touch
me! You'll burst into a ball of flames before you can even move!"
CLARK STEEL VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "Just because you've lived on a battlefield doesn't mean you're actually
strong, you know?"
Clark: "This is true. However, since you've never seen a battlefield, you can't
assume you are stronger than I am."
Shen: "Is being a smartass part of standard operations for a soldier? I don't
give a crap about all your ranks and training. Let's see how you fight!"
CLARK STEEL VS. SIE KENSOU
Clark: "Psycho Powers can't be quantified and are therefore an element of
uncertainty.... But winning using powers that you cannot predict reduces
any of your victories to a lucky fluke."
Kensou: "What? Are you trying to make me look bad or something? I'm doing my
best trying to control this thing! These Psycho Powers are a part of my
true strength! Just look, and I'll show you what I can do!"
CLARK STEEL VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "Such ease of movement.... This can't just be the result of mere
training. You must've seen a number of battlefields. I can see why
you're Heidern's right hand man. I'm going to enjoy fighting you!"
Clark: "Takuma Sakazaki.... The Commander has told me a lot about you. But I
don't intend to let you win! Capture, incapacitate, and suppress.... The
standard strategies should work just fine!"
CLARK STEEL VS. TERRY BOGARD
Clark: "You know, if you can't hold down a steady job, why don't you join our
unit? I'm sure you'd fit right in, and you'd definitely fly through to
the top ranks in no time!"
Terry: "Are you crazy? That's the worst joke I've heard all year! I don't want
to live a life as brutal as yours! I'm fine with hopping from job to job
and drifting! That's the kind of life that I'm suited to, man!"
Clark: "I see.... You have the strength, but not the personality to make it as a
merc. Too bad."
CLARK STEEL VS. VICE
Clark: "You guys are a constant pain in the backside.... Don't you know when to
quit?"
Vice: "I'm not asking you to stick around. If we're such a pain, why don't you
just run off now?"
Clark: "I don't like it any more than you do, but it's a part of my mission, I'm
afraid. So I'm sticking around to the end, Vice!"
CLARK STEEL VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Clark: "I already know I'm going to win, but it'd still be nice if you could at
least put up a fight. You wouldn't want me to have a fight that's less
strenuous than my lifting, would ya?"
Yuri: "Well, that all depends on how much effort you're going to put into this,
doesn't it? Who knows? You keep underestimating me, and you might end up
wishing you never left the gym today in the first place!"
CLARK STEEL VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "Your history is about to be completely erased. What are you getting so
upset about? It's not as if you can do anything about it!"
Clark: "Yeah, I've been meaning to ask you about that. Would you mind coming
back to base with me?"
Saiki: "You humans are so naive. Do you really think you can defeat me!?"
CLARK STEEL VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "What does the military want with me? Just wait patiently until time no
longer exists for you people."
Clark: "That sounds way too abstract. Can you be a bit more specific on the
meeting time?" (*)
Ash: "Time is time. Yours will be no more. What else do you need to know? Maybe
you'll understand it if I rephrase it. All human history is about to be
wiped completely clean. It will no longer exist. Once it has been
scattered to the void, we will come in and create history anew! Does that
make it clear to you? I have the power to do such a thing and I am going
to use it!"
Clark: "Thanks for the lecture. Now come along to the office like a good boy. I
can't let anyone with powers like that run around."
* Author's note: I'm guessing he meant "meaning" instead of "meeting".
DUO LON VS. DUO LON
Duo Lon1: "To meet face to face with one's own reflection.... Perhaps this is
the fate of anyone who lives his life on the edge of shadow...."
Duo Lon2: "Which one of us is real?" Although, honestly, does it even really
matter?"
Duo Lon1: "Well said. The stronger of us shall have the task of confronting
that man."
Duo Lon2: "Indeed. The Hizoku Clan has no need for weaklings!"
DUO LON VS. ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE
Elisabeth: "Let us see if your power is worthy of my trust."
Duo Lon: "...Very well. I won't go easy on you...."
DUO LON VS. GORO DAIMON
Duo Lon: "This world contains a darkness that a pure and righteous mind will
never be able to see. Because you've never witnessed it, there's no
possible way you could hope to stand against me! Leave now!"
Daimon: "The mind contains darkness, too. What you fail to understand is that
it falls to you to overcome it. Let me show you that the true way of
the warrior does not allow for evil thoughts!"
DUO LON VS. HWA JAI
Hwa Jai: "You don't look like an ordinary martial artist, but you're still
not a real match for Muay Thai!"
Duo Lon: "I'll show you the difference between a simple fighter and a Hizoku
assassin...."
Hwa Jai: "The only thing you've shown me so far is that talk is cheap!"
DUO LON VS. IORI YAGAMI
Duo Lon: "Can you hear them? The cries of agony from the wandering dead?"
Iori: "The dead? What can they do? If you're that worried about the dead,
though, I'll send you off to the underworld to take care of them!"
DUO LON VS. IORI YAGAMI (EX)
Duo Lon: "Get lost.... Your pathetic flames will do nothing to scorch my
tenacity...."
EX Iori: "No scorching will be required. I'll tear you into a thousand pieces
and scatter your remains across the plains of Hades...."
DUO LON VS. JOE HIGASHI
Joe: "Well aren't you a shady character? Don't you think for a second that a
Muay Thai fighter is afraid of ghosts, though!"
Duo Lon: "I see.... There is truth in what you speak. The living are far more
dreadful than the dead, after all."
Joe: "Emo kid, I didn't understand a damn thing you just said. Enough talking!
Let's get this show on the road!"
DUO LON VS. K'
Duo Lon: "Those bizarre flames.... Did you come here so that I could extinguish
them?"
K': "The hell are you...? Are you talking in your sleep or something?"
Duo Lon: "Hmmm.... It looks to me like you're trying to cut ties to
something...."
K': "Mind your own business.... Let's fight!"
DUO LON VS. KIM KAPHWAN
Kim: "You may have been raised by a clan of assassins, but I still believe that
you can be led back to the path of good. It is most definitely not too
late! Change your evil ways! Embrace the path of the just!"
Duo Lon: "A man's life cannot be changed so easily.... You cannot easily uproot
a tree and plant it among the streams when one of its' roots has
already taken firm hold in the abyss."
DUO LON VS. KING
Duo Lon: "You there, Muay Thai girl. I hear you're pretty good with your feet."
King: "What's it to you? Don't think I'll go easy on you if you flatter me."
Duo Lon: "Oh, nothing. You just reminded me of someone else who can dish out
some pretty devastating kicks."
DUO LON VS. KULA DIAMOND
Duo Lon: "Leave, child.... As long as you can smile innocently, you can still
escape."
Kula: "Why? I don't want to go! I came here to fight!"
Duo Lon: "You have no idea what fighting is about. And sadly, I don't think
words are going to make you understand...."
DUO LON VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Duo Lon: "...Why are you here? Surely you have no further business here?"
Kyo: "What's it to you, huh? I'm just here to repay an old favor to someone!"
Duo Lon: "I thought so. It seems we're both here to look for someone...."
Kyo: "Oh yeah? Well then, I'll be the one that finds him so I can settle my
score! This is where your journey ends!"
DUO LON VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
Duo Lon: "It seems you have a place to go back to. You should leave here while
you still can. I will not stop you."
EX Kyo: "You think you know it all, don't you, buddy? Next, try learning how to
mind your own damn business. I have stuff to take care of here! If
you're not gonna fight, why don't you get your sickly mug back to the
mountains of China, huh?"
DUO LON VS. LEONA
Duo Lon: "Do you know Ron's whereabouts?"
Leona: "Even if I did.... What makes you think I'd tell you?"
Duo Lon: "Nevermind then. Just forget I asked."
DUO LON VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Mai: "My, my! Aren't you tall, dark, and handsome? You're not as much of a
looker as my Andy, though."
Duo Lon: "......"
Mai: "Huh? What's with that smirk creeping onto your face? Are you making fun of
my Andy!?"
Duo Lon: "No, it's just.... For a moment there I envied your innocence."
DUO LON VS. MATURE
Duo Lon: "You're...not human? But you don't seem to be a ghost either...."
Mature: "You shouldn't try too hard to analyze a woman. Any good woman has more
secrets than you could ever hope to discover."
Duo Lon: "Well put. In any case, although I cannot determine what type of being
you are, I do know that I can accurately classify you as my enemy!"
DUO LON VS. MAXIMA
Duo Lon: "............"
Maxima: "What's wrong? Do you have something to ask me?"
Duo Lon: "No, never mind. Now's not the time.... But if I win, you're going to
tell me the whereabouts of a certain man...."
DUO LON VS. MR. KARATE
Duo Lon: "This air of menace.... It's enough to give the Grim Reaper a run for
his money."
Mr. Karate: "You sense it? Why aren't you standing aside, then?"
Duo Lon: "Because I do not fear the Reaper.... Let alone a mere demon."
Mr. Karate: "Interesting.... Then let me show you what it means to be
unbeatable!"
DUO LON VS. RAIDEN
Duo Lon: "I don't intend to turn this into a spectacle. This will only take a
couple of seconds."
Raiden: "Are you crazy? The crowd will be upset if I knock you out that
quickly! Don't think you're going to get off that easily!"
Duo Lon: "Feel free to entertain the crowd for as long as you like while you're
on your back. I'll be leaving as soon as possible."
DUO LON VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "Sorry, pal. I'm going to need to get you out of the way. I can't afford
to have you interfering with our mission."
Duo Lon: "Your mission? I'm not concerned with your little mission. But if you
intend to interfere with MY goals.... You will find yourself vanishing
from this place."
DUO LON VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Robert: "Man, you look.... I dunno...gloomy? Is that the right word? It's good
to have something important to fight for, but don't let yourself get
buried under your burden, man."
Duo Lon: "My burdens are my own. I don't need to concern anyone else with them.
Although perhaps being crushed under the weight would finally lead to
blissful peace...."
DUO LON VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Duo Lon: "Just by looking at you I can see that you are strong.... But not quite
strong to defeat me."
Ryo: "Isn't it a bit early to jump to conclusions? You might be surprised to see
how wrong your assumptions can be once a fight begins."
Duo Lon: "I see.... You may have a point."
Ryo: "That's why fighting's so great! So let's get started!"
DUO LON VS. SAIKI
Duo Lon: "Let me ask you while you're still conscious.... Do you know the
whereabouts of a man named Ron?"
Saiki: "Should you really be concerned with that right now? In a few moments,
you'll be nothing but a pile of ashes!"
Duo Lon: "If you do not intend to talk, then so be it. I shall see to it that
you never open your mouth again. Your very existence is an affront to
my dear friend!"
DUO LON VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "Oh yeah, let's do this! Come at me with everything you got, Duo Lon!"
Duo Lon: "I guess it couldn't hurt to indulge in a carefree fight every once in
a while...."
DUO LON VS. SIE KENSOU
Kensou: "Hey, it's the Hizoku guy! What's up?"
Duo Lon: "............"
Kensou: "Hey, c-come on! Don't just ignore me! You're making me look like a
total idiot here!"
DUO LON VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "You've been through a lot, haven't you? I can tell by the weary look
in your eyes."
Duo Lon: "My experiences are nothing to boast about. Reality is a constant
ordeal for me."
Takuma: "I see. That must be what life is like for the Hizoku. Then show me
what your life has taught you!"
DUO LON VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "Hey! Are you okay, man? You look like you've seen a ghost!"
Duo Lon: "Oh, don't worry about me. Your own safety should be a much more
pressing concern."
Terry: "Now we're talking! OK, let's fight! No holds barred!"
DUO LON VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Duo Lon: "His sister.... You too, huh?"
Yuri: "Huh? What are you talking about? Yeah, I have a brother, but...."
Duo Lon: "Nevermind. There's no point in telling you now...."
DUO LON VS. VICE
Duo Lon: "Orochi's Hakkeshu...was it? What do you creatures want from me?"
Vice: "Oh, nothing. I just wanna wipe that arrogant look off your face!"
DUO LON VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "Who the heck are you? Do you belong to that Hizoku bunch Mukai was
using?"
Duo Lon: "So you do know about the Hizoku.... Tell me everything."
Saiki: "Why should I!? Even if I did, it wouldn't do you any good, since you'll
be nothing but a bloodstain soon!"
DUO LON VS. DARK ASH
Duo Lon: "Ash.... As a friend, this is about all I can do for you...."
Ash: "What? Don't tell me you're fighting me for that loser's sake! Are you
kidding me? No human can ever hope to defeat me! I rule time! I'm
basically a god!"
Duo Lon: "Don't use that face to speak another word.... Not another syllable!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE
Elisabeth1: "What is the meaning of this...!? I don't know who is responsible
for this, but it's a terrible joke!"
Elisabeth2: "Really? Familiarizing yourself with your own abilities from an
objective point of view isn't such a bad thing."
Elisabeth1: "Very well, then.... I suppose if I cannot defeat myself, I can
never hope to accomplish my mission!"
Elisabeth2: "I shall overcome this trial like any other! In the name of the
Blanctorche family!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. GORO DAIMON
Elisabeth: "As massive and immovable as a boulder.... But I am prepared to do
the impossible if that's what is necessary! I cannot afford to lose!
Are you ready?"
Daimon: "Great! Bring it! This will be a match to remember!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. HWA JAI
Hwa Jai: "Get lost, woman! KOF isn't some kind of costume party!"
Elisabeth: "You don't seem to know who you're up against. This should prove to
be most amusing. You have sown the seeds of your own insolence, and
now you will reap their painful harvest."
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. IORI YAGAMI
Elisabeth: "Iori Yagami...what do you intend to do now that you no longer
possess your fire?"
Iori: "That's none of your business. Get out of my way if you don't want to die,
woman."
Elisabeth: "To not avail yourself of the chance to part with Orochi forever is
foolishness in the extreme!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. IORI YAGAMI (EX)
Elisabeth: "The Yagami Clan broke the ancient pact.... Are these vile flames a
stigma of your betrayal?"
EX Iori: "Don't get all preachy on me, woman.... Unless you have a death wish?"
Elisabeth: "What goes around comes around. The pain you are experiencing is
nothing but your own creation."
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. JOE HIGASHI
Joe: "OHH YEAAAH! Joe Higashi, Summoner of Storms, has entered the stage!"
Elisabeth: "What a noisy entrance. I hope you're not all cry and little wool."
Joe: "Are you calling me a sheep!? You're gonna regret the day that you insulted
the great Joe Higashi!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. K'
Elisabeth: "You possess such immense strength, yet you can't live as one of the
Three Sacred Treasures.... Your very existence is the epitome of
misfortune...."
K': "You enjoy your little speech there? Talking down to me like I'm some kind
of pity case? I'll decide what I'm worth myself! You don't have the right
to judge me!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. KIM KAPHWAN
Elisabeth: "Your composure and your steely determination.... I can sense a
certain elegance in them!"
Kim: "Your words flatter me, Miss, but I'm afraid I am unworthy of such praise.
Why, even now, knowing I'm going to get to fight you, I feel exhilarated!"
Elisabeth: "As am I! I will certainly enjoy this fight!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. KING
King: "I hear you are quite a knowledgeable gourmand. We've got many different
varieties of wine back at the bar.... Would you like to sample our wares
sometime? I'll give you a special discount!"
Elisabeth: "I shall pay your bar a visit this very evening, then! It will be a
good opportunity to celebrate my victory!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. KULA DIAMOND
Elisabeth: "So pure and innocent.... I remember the days when he and I were like
you...."
Kula: "Umm.... What do you mean? I don't know what you're talking about!"
Elisabeth: "Forgive me, I was just thinking aloud. Let us begin!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Kyo: "You.... I don't know what you're trying to do here, but I'm gonna have to
ask you to stop. You guys just bring trouble wherever you go, and I'm
always the one who has to clean up the mess!"
Elisabeth: "I am truly sorry about that.... But you cannot remain uninvolved in
these matters. The power of Orochi must not fall into their hands!"
Kyo: "Don't worry about that! I can handle that little upstart!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
Elisabeth: "It seems you still have a lot to learn. Not only as one of the
Sacred Treasures, but as a human being as well. Do you honestly
think you have it in you to protect the sword in your current
state?"
EX Kyo: "Mind your own business, lady! Why don't you go lecture Yagami, huh?
Maybe he'll listen!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. LEONA
Elisabeth: "You carry the cursed blood of one born from the union of a human and
a member of the Orochi Clan.... If you want to press on, then show
me where your heart lies!"
Leona: "I can overcome this on my own.... I will not stop moving forward...."
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Elisabeth: "You truly are a rare beauty! I could not possibly bring myself to
mar your looks! Please grant me the favor of stepping aside. It
would be in the best interests of everyone."
Mai: "You must be new here. Allow me to tell you something.... Yes, I am
beautiful, but I am also stronger than anyone else! I am the flower that
bloomed in KOF! I am Mai Shiranui!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. MATURE
Elisabeth: "Stand aside, Orochi filth! You don't belong in this world!"
Mature: "WE don't belong in this world!? It seems someone here doesn't know her
place. I'm sorry, but we can't leave this to your kind anymore."
Elisabeth: "If you refuse to move, you leave me no choice! I'll show you no
mercy!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. MAXIMA
Maxima: "The Three Sacred Treasures are in a league of their own. But, your
talents are right up there. If I can't analyze you, my reputation will
take a hit, though, so I'll be taking your data now!"
Elisabeth: "If that's what you must do, then feel free to do so. However, you'll
never be able to comprehend it. My Blanc style Fist of Light can't
be reduced to mere numbers!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. MR. KARATE
Mr. Karate: "Begone from here, woman.... This is no playground for nobility."
Elisabeth: "This...!? This overpowering feeling.... It does your name of The
Legendary Karateka justice! But my life is led in constant combat.
I am ready to take on anyone at any time!"
Mr. Karate: "Let us not waste any more time with words.... I shall use these
fists to pummel this flower into a shower of broken petals!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "Bring it on, missy! I'll try not to hurt you too much when I crush ya!"
Elisabeth: "You seem to be utterly oblivious of your own limitations. I'll be
happy to show you exactly how wanting you are."
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "Oh? I have to fight aristocrats now, do I? Please be gentle with me,
mademoiselle!"
Elisabeth: "You may act flippant, but you're actually a formidable man.... You
can drop the pretenses."
Ralf: "You noticed, huh? Then let's get this show on the road! I'll show you how
fearsome a pro can be!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Elisabeth: "Robert Garcia, the 'Mightiest Tiger'.... I hear that your kicks are
fast as lightning."
Robert: "You can't fully appreciate them until you see them coming at you! But
you're in luck! I've been itching to show off some of my moves!"
Elisabeth: "Then let me regale you with a display of my own.... Behold the Blanc
style Fist of Light!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Elisabeth: "Your fists embody both vigor and simplicity.... But what you gain in
simplicity, you also gain in predictability."
Ryo: "I'll admit I may be a bit too predictable, but what about you, huh? Don't
they say that beauty fades?"
Elisabeth: "Let us see which of us is correct. We shall have our answer soon
enough."
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. SAIKI
Saiki: "What seems to be the matter, Betty? You look like you've seen a ghost!
Ha ha.... You like my impression of that maggot?"
Elisabeth: "Stand aside, foul creature! Just looking at you makes me want to
explode in rage!"
Saiki: "Oooh, I like the look on your face! Rejoice now, worm, for I shall turn
that expression into one of true despair!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. SHEN WOO
Elisabeth: "That child needs to be more selective of his friends. Why on earth
would he befriend you, of all people...."
Shen: "What's that!? Did you just sigh at me? What's that supposed to mean,
huh!?"
Elisabeth: "I meant nothing by it. I am merely a bit fatigued."
Shen: "You stuck-up rich girl! You think you're better than me, don't you? I can
tell!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. SIE KENSOU
Elisabeth: "Why do you fight? What is it you fight for!?"
Kensou: "Wow, what's with the third degree all of a sudden!? I do know what I'm
fighting for, though! I fight for the world, for the people, and for
peace! And most of all, for my beloved Athena!"
Elisabeth: "You must be happy to have such clear goals. But that is all the more
reason for you to go home! What lies ahead is my fight, and my fight
alone!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "You seem to be quite formidable.... And I don't mean 'for a woman'."
Elisabeth: "If you can see that, then please stand aside! I have important
matters that I must attend to immediately!"
Takuma: "Preposterous! As a martial artist, I live to fight the strong! If you
want to advance, you'll have to defeat me!"
Elisabeth: "Very well.... There is nothing I fear!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. TERRY BOGARD
Elisabeth: "I have heard of your legend and the accounts of you defeating many
formidable opponents."
Terry: "Please don't call me a legend. You're making me blush! Let's just get
fighting already! Come on! Hurry up!"
Elisabeth: "It will be my pleasure. I shall push forward with full force! I
shall not lose!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. VICE
Vice: "*sigh* Because you punks blew it, now we're caught up in this. So, how
are you planning on repaying us for the trouble you've caused?"
Elisabeth: "What nonsense.... I'll make you regret your foolish words!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Elisabeth: "With your innocent nature you are likely to face some troubles in
the future that you may not have anticipated. You should quit for
now."
Yuri: "Innocence? Is that a compliment? I have a feeling that you're making fun
of me though...."
Elisabeth: "That is certainly not my intention. If you doubt my words, I will
gladly take you on in a fight. But make no mistake! It will be I
who advances to the next battle!"
Yuri: "I don't think so! You're not the only one who's got something to fight
for here!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. TRUE SAIKI
Elisabeth: "The long-held wishes of my family, and my mission! They will both
finally be fulfilled!"
Saiki: "*sigh* ...You sure love falling into your stereotypes, don't you? I'm
not interested in your soliloquy! I'll destroy you! I'll tear your soul
to shreds! You will writhe in agony for all of eternity!"
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE VS. DARK ASH
Elisabeth: "Ash! Y-You.... What have you done!?"
Ash: "Heh heh heh, he can't hear you anymore. I don't mind reuniting you two, if
you wish. You two can have your emotional reunion inside me! How's that
for a happy ending, huh? Cry tears of joy!"
GORO DAIMON VS. GORO DAIMON
Daimon1: "............"
Daimon2: "............"
Daimon1: "...Let's begin!"
Daimon2: "...Yes!"
GORO DAIMON VS. HWA JAI
Hwa Jai: "I bet you're worried about how on Earth you and your hulking body are
supposed to keep up with my moves!"
Daimon: "I thought you'd be the one worrying. You can't afford to make one wrong
move. If I get a hold of you even once, you're done for!"
GORO DAIMON VS. IORI YAGAMI
Iori: "Get lost. I have no business with you."
Daimon: "If you have business with Kyo, you have business with me! You won't get
to him unless you go through me!"
Iori: "So you want to be waiting for him at the gates of Hell, then? Fine by
me.... Die!"
GORO DAIMON VS. IORI YAGAMI (EX)
Daimon: "You're always so full of menace.... Do you really hate Kyo that much?"
EX Iori: "That's none of your business. Now get out of here before I kill you."
Daimon: "Sorry, but I can't let you go after Kyo. I have to stop you right
here."
GORO DAIMON VS. JOE HIGASHI
Joe: "We're both fighting for Japan! So, let's make this a clean fight, okay?"
Daimon: "You can count on that! We'll show everyone what Japanese men are made
of!"
Joe: "Great! Make sure you fight well! The better you look, the better I, Joe
Higashi, will look when I win this match!"
GORO DAIMON VS. K'
Daimon: "............"
K': "What do you want? If you're not here to fight, then get lost! There's too
much blood on my hands as it is."
Daimon: "I'm ready when you are. But, if you don't want to fight, then you are
the one who should leave."
K': "Great. This shouldn't take me more than a minute."
GORO DAIMON VS. KIM KAPHWAN
Kim: "Korean Tae Kwon Do versus Japanese Judo.... We are both carrying the
weight of our nations on our backs."
Daimon: "I wouldn't presume that we're carrying the weight of our nations. It is
just a fighting tournament after all. That being said, I certainly
wouldn't want my kid to see his father lose on TV."
Kim: "I agree 100%! I want to set a good example for my boys!"
GORO DAIMON VS. KING
King: "People who move really fast also tend to make mistakes easily.... In that
sense, you're a tough opponent to fight. You don't make many mistakes."
Daimon: "Is that so? Then what will you do?"
King: "I'll just have to force you to make mistakes. This isn't the first time
I've had to fight a man your size."
GORO DAIMON VS. KULA DIAMOND
Daimon: "............"
Kula: "Are you okay, Mister? Why aren't you saying something?"
Daimon: "We're fighting. There's no need to talk!"
Kula: "Huh? It's started already!? Then I have to do my best!"
GORO DAIMON VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Daimon: "It's been a while since we last fought. Give me all you've got, Kyo!"
Kyo: "Are you sure about that, Daimon? I'm a lot stronger than I was when we
first fought."
Daimon: "Excellent! Then show me!"
GORO DAIMON VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
Daimon: "I see.... I suppose it can't hurt to return to one's early years
sometimes."
EX Kyo: "Uh, that's not why I'm dressed like this, man...."
GORO DAIMON VS. LEONA
Daimon: "......"
Leona: "......"
Daimon: "............"
Leona: "............"
Daimon: "So.... I'm gonna attack you now...."
Leona: "Sure.... I'm ready...."
GORO DAIMON VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Daimon: "............"
Mai: "What's the matter, Daimon? Wh-Why are you staring at me like that? What?
You can't be.... Stop that, I already have Andy!"
Daimon: "H-How dare you dress like that in public!? You give Japanese women a
bad name!"
Mai: "D-Dress!? I, uh.... Why are you getting upset about it now, after all
these years?"
GORO DAIMON VS. MATURE
Daimon: "You people again.... What are you scheming this time?"
Mature: "Oh, look who's talkative all of a sudden?"
Daimon: "I don't care if you won't tell me. All that matters is that I won't
let you interfere with Kyo's plans."
Mature: "You're the interloper here, old man! I'll cut you into little pieces!"
GORO DAIMON VS. MAXIMA
Maxima: "The raw natural power of a well-trained Japanese man.... Pretty
impressive!"
Daimon: "It's not just my raw strength. Don't discount my technique."
Maxima: "Ah yes, the pride of the Judo athlete. I understand, but you should
know that you can't win with pride alone."
Daimon: "It's not pride alone! This pride comes from my strength and the long
nights I've spent training. I will not lose!"
GORO DAIMON VS. MR. KARATE
Daimon: "This sense of pressure.... Could this be the Mr. Karate I've heard so
much about!?"
Mr. Karate: "I'm sure the rumors will do nothing to prepare you for the real
thing.... Why don't you try me and see for yourself?"
Daimon: "I will. Let's see what you're made of!"
GORO DAIMON VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "Hooo, you look like a sturdy one! Why don't you quit Judo and start a
career in pro wrestling, where the money's at?"
Daimon: "No! Just...NO!"
GORO DAIMON VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "Being a gold medalist doesn't mean jack on the battlefield. And it
doesn't mean anything here, either."
Daimon: "You are right. But you'll notice that the medal is not here fighting,
it's me. Concentrate on me, not my trophy."
Ralf: "Ha ha, I like that! I can see you're not just some sportsman, you're a
real martial artist!"
GORO DAIMON VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Robert: "Wow.... I can see why they call you the Rising Storm.... If I'm not
careful, I'm going to be thrown all over the place like a newspaper in
a whirlwind. I must keep my distance...."
Daimon: "Enough talk. Have at you!" (*)
Robert: "You're so calm it's almost scary! Here I come!"
* Author's note: Must have stolen that line from Dracula in Castlevania:
Symphony of the Night....
GORO DAIMON VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "Hey, if you have some free time, would you care to join me on one of my
ascetic sessions in the mountains? No one I know ever wants to come along.
Robert and Yuri said there's no way they'd even think about it."
Daimon: "Very well. It would be my honor to join you."
Ryo: "Really!? What a relief! Now I can give my full concentration to the fight
at hand!"
GORO DAIMON VS. SAIKI
Daimon: "I cannot lose to anyone as evil as you.... That is the way of Judo
that I have chosen!"
Saiki: "You sound like you're being humble, but you're really just bluffing,
aren't you? You don't seriously think you can defeat me, do you? That's
not going to happen in a million years!"
GORO DAIMON VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "You! I'm getting sick of all your talk about spirit this and mind that!
All that matters is guts! The will to fight to the death! Show me if
you've got any of that, you big slab of meat!"
Daimon: "I will.... Let's go!"
GORO DAIMON VS. SIE KENSOU
Daimon: "If you're bothered by something, child, let me help you by allowing you
and Shingo to train together."
Kensou: "You've gotta be kidding me! Students at your place are only ever used
as errand boys!"
Daimon: "Hmmm.... I think you've got the wrong impression of us from
somewhere...."
GORO DAIMON VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "I can see you've got talent, and you'd make a great Karateka! It's
still not too late! Want to study Kyokugen?"
Daimon: "I appreciate your offer, but I only care about Judo.... Well, I'm sure
Kyokugen will prove very educational! Let's begin!"
Takuma: "Ha ha ha! I'll make sure to give you a few lessons with my Demon Fist,
as well!"
GORO DAIMON VS. TERRY BOGARD
Daimon: "That shoulder throw of yours.... You're doing it all wrong. You gotta
put your back into it!"
Terry: "Really? It's really hard to practice the move by myself.... Could you
teach me?"
Daimon: "Very well! First we will start with the basics, beginning with the
proper way to tie your belt!"
Terry: "No, you don't get it, that's not what I meant.... I really don't
understand this guy sometimes...."
GORO DAIMON VS. VICE
Vice: "Hey.... Do you like rollercoasters?"
Daimon: "Hm? Why do you ask?"
Vice: "Oh, because I was going to toss you back and forth, and possibly
loop-de-loop you in a second here. I thought it would be polite to ask.
Although, for the record, I wouldn't have gone any easier on you had you
said 'no'."
GORO DAIMON VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Daimon: "No matter how nimbly you float around, all it takes is one solid punch
to take you down."
Yuri: "Well, then I'll just have to use my speed and technique to use your own
strength against you! If we're going to fight, we should have fun with
it, right?"
Daimon: "I see.... There is some sense to what you are saying...."
Yuri: "But of course there is! So, prepare for a beat down, Mister Former Gold
Medalist!"
GORO DAIMON VS. TRUE SAIKI
Daimon: "This murderous aura.... Who are you?"
Saiki: "You would die a more peaceful death if you didn't know. If I told you,
you would only fall deeper into despair."
Daimon: "You vile miscreant! I'll knock some manners into you!"
GORO DAIMON VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "To rule the timeline is to wield inescapable death. Wouldn't you agree?
Well, I have that power! All you can do is tremble in despair!"
Daimon: "I have overcome myself and all my fears. There is not an enemy that
can move me aside."
Ash: "Then die! Your existence ends here!"
HWA JAI VS. HWA JAI
Hwa Jai1: "Who the heck are you!? Stop trying to imitate the great Hwa Jai!"
Hwa Jai2: "Shut up! You're the one that's a fake!"
Hwa Jai1: "Monkey see, monkey do.... I'll tear that fake skin of yours right
off your monkey back!"
Hwa Jai2: "That's my line, you stupid copy! I'll drown you in the Chao Phraya!"
HWA JAI VS. IORI YAGAMI
Iori: "Hmph. Get lost, loser...."
Hwa Jai: "What's that!? You dare pick a fight with the mighty Thai fighter,
Hwa!?"
Iori: "You think this will just be a fight? You're far more stupid than you
look."
HWA JAI VS. IORI YAGAMI (EX)
Hwa Jai: "Who the heck are you? And what's with those ridiculously tiny
flames?"
EX Iori: "These flames will be the end of you and your miserable little
existence...."
Hwa Jai: "Hah! Are you kidding me!? Do you want to get torn apart by my Dragon
Kick, punk?"
EX Iori: "The least you can do is go down quietly. Let the only sound be the
fire's gentle crackling on your charred remains."
HWA JAI VS. JOE HIGASHI
Joe: "Well, look who we have here! If it isn't Former Champion Hwa Jai! What
brings you here? Let me guess, you're here to cheer me on to victory, so
when I win, everyone will know that you got beaten by the best in the
world."
Hwa Jai: "Still the cocky idiot you always were, Joe. It's about time I put a
stop to your endless ramblings! I'll shred you to pieces with my
reborn Dragon Tooth!"
HWA JAI VS. K'
Hwa Jai: "Well well, what have we here? Another kid with a mean look in his
eyes!"
K': "Who are you to talk down to anyone? Have you looked in a mirror lately?"
Hwa Jai: "None of your back-talk, you little rat! Just say 'Yes, sir', like a
good kid!"
K': "...Are you even sane? What a waste of time."
HWA JAI VS. KIM KAPHWAN
Hwa Jai: "......"</pre><pre id="faqspan-4">
Kim: "Why do you avert your eyes, Hwa? Is something troubling you?"
Hwa Jai: "N-No, there isn't! I'm certainly not trying to figure out how to run
away or anything!"
Kim: "Hwa, I think you and I need to have a long, quiet talk...."
HWA JAI VS. KING
Hwa Jai: "You aren't seriously telling me those dance steps of yours are
supposed to be Muay Thai, are you!?"
King: "Hello to you, too.... What if I am?"
Hwa Jai: "Well, first I would kick that mouth of yours in!"
King: "Hm. Why don't you try and see just how close you can get before you hit
the floor?"
HWA JAI VS. KULA DIAMOND
Kula: "Oh! Mister Weird Guy! What's that you're drinking there? Please tell
me!"
Hwa Jai: "W-Weird guy!? Are you talking about me, kid?"
Kula: "Tell me, what is it!? Is it tasty? Sweet? Is it cold?"
Hwa Jai: "Sh-Shut up! You're really starting to annoy me, you pest!"
HWA JAI VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Hwa Jai: "Kusanagi style? Never heard of it! And what's this 1800 years of
history nonsense? The origins of Muay Thai lie in ancient India! In
terms of history you don't even compare!"
Kyo: "Tell me something I don't know! I'm not here to debate history! We're
fighting in the present. We're here to decide who's the strongest fighter
in the world NOW! It's a rhetorical question, by the way! The answer is
obvious!"
HWA JAI VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
EX Kyo: "Are you sure you're gonna be okay, man? Muay Thai rules don't apply
here."
Hwa Jai: "Don't you worry about stuff like that. I'd worry more about myself if
I was you. There's no referee to stop the fight when you're lying on
the floor bleeding to death!"
EX Kyo: "And there'll be no one to put you out once you're covered in fire,
either."
HWA JAI VS. LEONA
Hwa Jai: "Hmph. You've got a good pair of eyes for a kid. They look as if
they've seen a lot."
Leona: "Yes.... Probably a lot more than yours."
Hwa Jai: "Hey, don't get all full of yourself just because I praised you a bit!
Show me what you've seen that makes you so special!"
HWA JAI VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Mai: "Huh? No way! Why!? Why is there another one of you underpants people
here!?"
Hwa Jai: "Underpants people!? Wait a minute.... You're talking about Joe, aren't
ya? ...Oh, and you're the last person to criticize others for wearing
too little, by the way."
HWA JAI VS. MATURE
Hwa Jai: "Are you for real? Do you think I crawled all the way back from Hell to
be beaten by some chick like you?"
Mature: "Someone there must have turned the heat down really low if YOU managed
to get out of there. Well, you're in luck, I'll give you a special
treat! I'll give you a taste of what Hell is REALLY like!"
HWA JAI VS. MAXIMA
Hwa Jai: "Are you that private sandbad I ordered? You look like you're gonna be
a lot of fun to kick!"
Maxima: "I think you're making a mistake here, and I should warn you that
kicking me would not be a wise move. If you did, it'd probably break
every bone in those precious legs of yours."
Hwa Jai: "I don't take any lip from my sandbags! I'll shut you up once and for
all!"
HWA JAI VS. MR. KARATE
Hwa Jai: "Niiiiice. Looks like they finally found me someone appropriately showy
to fight with! The True King of Muay Thai versus the Masked Karate
Man! This is gonna be a match to remember! Hee hee!"
Mr. Karate: "You think this is all a show? You'll soon learn the gravity of the
situation...."
HWA JAI VS. RAIDEN
Hwa Jai: "When we were still Geese's pets you may have been second only to Billy
Kane.... But both of us are free now, right? We should settle who's
the best once and for all!"
Raiden: "Geh heh heh, sounds good! I was thinking the exact same thing!"
Hwa Jai: "Then that settles it! Both you and Joe have been a pain in my ass for
far too long now!"
HWA JAI VS. RALF JONES
Hwa Jai: "Finally! Someone who looks like they might be fun to have a fight
with!"
Ralf: "I deal with life or death situations every day in my line of work. A
fight is nothing I can't handle."
Hwa Jai: "Well, if you put it like that, I suppose it would be polite to extend
you an official invitation! Let me treat you to my full seven-course
dinner of death! Bon apetit!"
Ralf: "I've survived off of eating nothing but mud. I think I can stomach that
little appetizer of yours!"
HWA JAI VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Hwa Jai: "Something tells me I'm going to really enjoy pummeling that pretty-boy
face of yours. He he he...."
Robert: "Sorry to burst your teeny little bubble, but I'm afraid the world
doesn't work that way. Everything's already been laid out to ensure my
perfect victory!"
Hwa Jai: "Whatever, karate man! You're getting a Dragon Kick right in the FACE!"
HWA JAI VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Hwa Jai: "'The Invincible Dragon'" Don't make me laugh! You'd better ditch that
name right now!"
Ryo: "Hey, it's not like I gave myself the nickname. Even still, it's going to
take more than you to get me to change it. If you want me to change my
name, why don't you try and take it from me, huh? Strength is all that
matters here, after all!"
Hwa Jai: "You think some karate man from some poor dojo in the middle of nowhere
can defeat the True Champion!? He he he! Then I'll grant your wish and
feed you to my Dragon Kick!"
HWA JAI VS. SAIKI
Hwa Jai: "Ugh, there's that skinny little brat again! Are you trying to piss me
off?"
Saiki: "Are you mistaking me for somebody else? I've got an idea who it might
be...."
Hwa Jai: "Whatever, man! I'm just gonna go ahead and kick your face in with my
Dragon Kick, just to be sure!"
HWA JAI VS. SHEN WOO
Hwa Jai: "Are you the one who's going around calling himself the 'God of War'!?
What am I then, chopped liver!?" (*)
Shen: "Well, they do say you are what you eat.... Who the heck are you, anyway,
lowlife?"
Hwa Jai: "Remember my name! I am Hwa Jai, the true King of Muay Thai! The
world's most legendary Thai fighter!" (**)
Shen: "I don't remember every punching bag I hit! If you want me to remember
your name, you're gonna have to give me a reason!"
* Author's note: Oh crap, I thought Kratos only appeared in Mortal Kombat....
** Author's note: Sagat would like to have a word with you....
HWA JAI VS. SIE KENSOU
Hwa Jai: "Psycho Powers!? Bah. BAH! It's because you rely on nonsense like that
that you're still less than a second-tier fighter!"
Kensou: "Isn't the same thing true about you, since you're relying on that
weird drink of yours?"
Hwa Jai: "....... That's it, you impudent kid! You kept campaigning for that
beatdown, the votes are counted, and you got elected! You're gonna
get a Dragon Kick right in the teeth!"
Kensou: "(What the heck is his problem!? Why's he going off all of a sudden?
This guy's insane!)"
HWA JAI VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "Strength, skill, and experience. You excel at all of these and
yet...."
Hwa Jai: "What do you mean yet? There are no yets or ifs when it comes to my
strength!"
Takuma: "And yet what you lack is a calm and clear mind, you pathetic fool. It
doesn't matter how skilled a martial artist you are, if you do not
have the correct state of mind to pair with it."
Hwa Jai: "Shut up, you old geezer! Hwa Jai does not take advice from a
Karateka!"
HWA JAI VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "You look familiar. We've met before, right? What's your name again?
Hwy...? Hwo...? Hwat...?"
Hwa Jai: "It's Hwa Jai! HWA JAI! And don't you forget it!"
Terry: "Oh yeah, now I remember! Sorry about that.... You're former champion
Hwa! Joe has your belt, right?"
Hwa Jai: "Oh, you must think you're freaking hilarious. You wanna be startin'
something, is that it? I'll break your friggin' neck!"
HWA JAI VS. VICE
Vice: "Muay Thai? That's where you dance around like you're fighting, right?
Yeah, I've heard of that. I don't need a ballet dancer like you.
Especially since you're not even a champion ballet dancer."
Hwa Jai: "You.... You dare insult me, and the art of Muay Thai as well!? Bring
it on, woman! I'll hit you so hard they'll need a telescope to find
you! You're going into SPACE!"
HWA JAI VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Hwa Jai: "What!? Another girl!? This tournament has really gone downhill!"
Yuri: "Um, sir, this is the 21st century and equal rights for men and women are
the established global standard! In fact, the age of women has only just
begun! You might be surprised by what a strong woman can do!"
Hwa Jai: "G-Glob...? Sh-Sh-Shut up! Stop talking nonsense! There's no place for
girls here, and if words alone don't convince you, then my feet will
show you that there are some places where women just can't compete!"
HWA JAI VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "Who are you? What business could an insect like you possibly think you
have with me?"
Hwa Jai: "Insect!? Did you just call me, Hwa Jai, an insect!?"
Saiki: "Yes, I called you an insect because you are an insect! And now you will
cast yourself into the flames like the stupid insect you are!"
HWA JAI VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "When I see you, I'm more certain than ever that human evolution took the
wrong course. I mean, just look at your face...."
Hwa Jai: "What's that supposed to mean!? Are you trying to insult the great Hwa
Jai!?"
Ash: "At least ancient humans had enough instinct to know that they were facing
someone much stronger and flee."
Hwa Jai: "You talk too much! Fortunately, I know exactly how to get you to shut
your stinking trap!"
Ash: "You're a woefully idiotic creature. Maybe in the final moment before I end
your pitiful life, you'll have some idea of how stupid you are!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. IORI YAGAMI
Iori1: "This is just stupid."
Iori2: "Famous last words.... Stupid, indeed...."
Iori1: "Shut up and stop wasting my time! Die now!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. IORI YAGAMI (EX)
Iori: "Is my Orochi blood playing tricks on me? If it is, then this is by far
the most pathetic hallucination it's ever shown me."
EX Iori: "If it makes you feel any better to think so, then go right ahead.
This hallucination is going to burn you bad, though."
Iori: "Well, it seems your mouth is real.... Now die!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. JOE HIGASHI
Iori: "You think I'm easy to deal with now that I've lost my flames, huh?
Fool."
Joe: "Ha! I thought you were easy to deal with when you still had your flames.
You look like some washed-up goth band member to me! You're up against
Joe Higashi here! I can push you over with a single breath!"
Iori: "Your breath could topple an elephant. Die already!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. K'
Iori: "You.... You're still as much of an eyesore as ever...."
K': "I'm an eyesore? You should see how bad you look without your flames. I'll
help you out by torching your ugly face!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. KIM KAPHWAN
Kim: "Yagami! Now is the time to part ways with Orochi completely and start
walking the path of the righteousness! Come to my dojo! There are more
like you there, all aiming to mend their ways!"
Iori: "Get lost. I don't have time for insane clowns dancing in the name of
justice."
IORI YAGAMI VS. KING
Iori: "Do you have any idea what you're up against, woman?"
King: "What kind of question is that!? Now that you've lost your flames, is
talk all you have left?"
Iori: "Excellent. Then you know that you will die!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. KULA DIAMOND
Kula: "I don't even like this man.... Even without the flames, I don't like
him...."
Iori: "Then beat it, kid! I have no time for your nonsense."
Kula: "Pff! I'll show you! I'm really strong!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Kyo: "Even without your flames you're still up to no good, Yagami? You need to
learn when to quit!"
Iori: "Spare me the lectures. This is the day you die, Kyo!"
Kyo: "My, aren't we in a hurry all of a sudden? That's not like you, Yagami....
Are you getting nervous?"
Iori: "I told you I didn't want to hear your crap! Just attack already!"
Kyo: "All right, guess it's time to pound you into shape. Let's go, Yagami!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
Iori: "I will burn everything, Kyo! Not even a handful of ashes will remain!"
EX Kyo: "You think I'm gonna let that happen? God, you really think the entire
world revolves around you, don't you?"
Iori: "Spare me your talk.... Now you die!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. LEONA
Leona: "I'm not like you.... I'll keep resisting what's in my blood...."
Iori: "Wipe that smug look off of your face.... Your banter never fails to bore
me. I've taken all the boredom I can stand! Die already!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Iori: "I'm getting so sick of your face.... You're not a ninja, you're a
maggot."
Mai: "A maggot!? At least call me a caterpillar! A caterpillar that turned into
a beautiful butterfly dancing through the air."
Iori: "I don't care what kind of insect you are, I'm going to step on you all
the same."
IORI YAGAMI VS. MATURE
Mature: "Aww, what happened to your pretty flames, Yagami? You'll never beat
Kusanagi like that!"
Iori: "You want to see for yourself how I plan on beating Kusanagi?"
Mature: "Hmmm...maybe I do. Nothing wrong with getting to know each other's
abilities better, right?"
IORI YAGAMI VS. MAXIMA
Maxima: "I see. Now that you've lost Orochi's power, you're back to your
original Yasakani style. However, without any empirical data, it seems
rash to conclude that this makes you less powerful...."
Iori: "Are you done having your own conversation? I've had enough of you. Get
lost!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. MR. KARATE
Mr. Karate: "How dare you oppose me? Are you really in such a hurry to die,
young one?"
Iori: "I don't have time for your comedy routine.... Get lost. Right now."
IORI YAGAMI VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "What's up with your 'do? Can you even see with all that hair in front
of your eyes? Wait, I know! Let's make a bet! If you lose, I get to cut
your stupid hair! Gwa ha ha!"
Iori: "You oink too much, Piggy. Time to bash in your snout!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. RALF JONES
Iori: "Get out of here.... I hate you army types."
Ralf: "Rest assured, the feeling is mutual. But I have a mission to complete. We
can't have you creeping around the place, so I gotta take care of you
here and now."
Iori: "Your mission doesn't concern me! Get lost!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Robert: "Man, why do you always have to look so moody? Are you after that
Kusanagi kid again?"
Iori: "...Get lost. It's none of your business."
Robert: "There's no need for that tone. If you're so bothered by other people,
why do you even show up here in the first place?"
Iori: "I just told you to get lost, didn't I?"
IORI YAGAMI VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "Hey, Yagami, be honest with me here. You know, right? You know that even
if you defeat Kyo Kusanagi, your anger's still gonna be there, right? So
why are you so fixated on it, huh?"
Iori: "Are you trying to be helpful or something? You're pathetic. If you stand
in my way, I'll end you. It's that simple."
IORI YAGAMI VS. SAIKI
Saiki: "Looks like you're in a lot of trouble just because of your ancestors'
carelessness 660 years ago. Would you like me to put you out of your
misery? I'd be happy to oblige!"
Iori: "I think enough hot air's come out of your mouth today. Your very
existence is getting on my nerves."
IORI YAGAMI VS. SHEN WOO
Iori: "Run along, stray dog! You're not even worth looking at."
Shen: "Watch your mouth, punk! Or this 'stray dog' is gonna have to tear your
throat out and silence your yapping."
Iori: "So you want to die, then? I'll put you out of your misery."
IORI YAGAMI VS. SIE KENSOU
Kensou: "Whoa! I don't know what's going on here, but you seem even more
terrifying than before."
Iori: "I don't have time for you, kid. Leave."
Kensou: "I'm afraid I can't do that! I have to show you my new strength first!"
Iori: "So you want to show me your new strength and then die? Fine by me."
IORI YAGAMI VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "I can sense your desire to shed blood.... It only seems to have grown
stronger now that you've lost your flames."
Iori: "If you can sense that, then you know you should get out of my way...."
Takuma: "Don't be absurd! You'll have to defeat me to pass! Kyokugen never turns
its' back on an enemy!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. TERRY BOGARD
Iori: "A domesticated wolf is no wolf.... It's just a lapdog."
Terry: "Well, here's your chance to see if I'm more wolf than dog or the other
way around, Yagami! Let's fight!"
Iori: "Idiot. I was offering to spare your life. Your tongue is going to get
you killed now, cur!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. VICE
Iori: "What's wrong with you? I thought I told you to stay out of my way!"
Vice: "Oh, don't be such a spoilsport, Yagami! I just want to play a bit! I'm
curious to see how a flameless Yagami fights."
Iori: "So desperate to die, eh? Ignorant woman."
IORI YAGAMI VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Yuri: "How long do you plan to keep sulking about the state of the world? People
don't like gloomy types like you, you know?"
Iori: "Oh? But you obviously hate the world. Otherwise you wouldn't be in such a
hurry to die!"
Yuri: "Don't be like that! I'm only trying to be friendly here!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "You let Ash run off with your flames? You're a lot more stupid than I
thought...."
Iori: "Where is he? Don't you dare tell me you don't know!"
Saiki: "*sigh* ...This is such a pain to deal with. Why can't you see that you
don't have a part in this anymore?"
Iori: "If you're not gonna talk, then die!"
IORI YAGAMI VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "Do you know what'll happen when you get your flames back?"
Iori: "Shut up.... What's it to you?"
Ash: "Are you really an idiot? Is that what you are? Are you stupid enough to
think you can defeat me?"
Iori: "...Die. Right now. Just die."
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. JOE HIGASHI
Joe: "Ugh, not this guy again. This is the 21st century, man! Nobody cares
about goths anymore! We're in the business to show our strength, not to
look emo!" (*)
EX Iori: "...Are you done yapping yet? Then shut up. Your voice is like a
thousand fingernails on the world's largest blackboard."
* Author's note: Well, at least SOMEONE pointed that out....
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. K'
K': "Let's get this over with.... Looking at you makes me feel sick."
EX Iori: "So you choose your own death.... Such commendable dedication."
K': "Whatever, man.... You really piss me off. I'm done with those flames of
yours!"
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. KIM KAPHWAN
Kim: "You are strong enough! The only thing you lack is a healthy mind and a
just heart! Allow me to show you the futility of spending your days
obsessed with revenge!"
EX Iori: "Wow, your speeches are just getting better and better, aren't they?"
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. KING
King: "Let's get going, Yagami! Don't even think of telling me you won't fight
women!"
EX Iori: "I'll fight anything if it stands in my way. Who am I to deny your
death wish?"
King: "You really should learn how to treat women, though. You'll never be
popular with the ladies otherwise!"
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. KULA DIAMOND
Kula: "Oh! It's that guy with the bangs again! Stay away from me! I hate your
flames!"
EX Iori: "Then get lost, kid. I don't have time to deal with pyrophobes."
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Kyo: "Hey, hey! Your timing is impeccable, as usual! You're not gonna tell me
you were 'summoned by my flames' or anything, are you? Because that's
the lame kind of thing I'd expect you to say."
EX Iori: "It was you who was summoned here by flames, Kyo.... Are you ready to
be burned to a crisp?"
Kyo: "You never were a man of words, were you? All right, Yagami, let's get
this show on the road!"
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. LEONA
Leona: "Please leave without causing trouble.... You're a liability to our
mission."
EX Iori: "I don't care about you people or your stupid missions.... Or are you
going to do something about it?"
Leona: "...No problem. Executing the mission...."
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. MAI SHIRANUI
EX Iori: "Get out of my sight, woman. Just looking at you turns my stomach."
Mai: "What, you don't think I'm gorgeous? Are you sure you're a dude? I think
you may need to get your head checked."
EX Iori: "See, you should've run off when I gave you the chance. Now I'm going
to have to kill you...."
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. MATURE
Mature: "What is it you're really looking for? Do you want to kill Kyo? Will
defeating him finally make you happy?"
EX Iori: "Enough with your idiotic questions. Are you trying to make me
angry?"
Mature: "Sounds to me like you're just afraid to face the future. You're
afraid of what might happen once you do defeat Kusanagi."
EX Iori: "...Shut up."
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. MAXIMA
Maxima: "How is it that you can control such flames like that? Not even my
partner can do that with the power of science. What's your secret?"
EX Iori: "Maybe taking a couple of blasts to the face will help you figure it
out. You might not survive the process, though."
Maxima: "I think I'll pass. Now that we've left NESTS, it's not really any of
our business anyway."
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "I hear you use some pretty funky flames, too. Let's see if they can
beat the ones I've got sealed away."
EX Iori: "Are you sure? You do realize you're staking your life, don't you?"
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "Hey! You still looking for that kid? Don't you ever get sick of running
after that guy?"
EX Iori: "You.... Do you know where Kyo is?"
Ralf: "Nope! I just saw your red hair and figured I'd try engaging in some
polite conversation."
EX Iori: "If you got that much time on your hands, I might as well kill you and
put you out of your misery."
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Robert: "Man, it's always the same story with you, ain't it, Yagami? Don't you
ever get tired of this attitude of yours? No one's going to have any
sympathy for you if you keep acting like this, you know? Stop sulking
and act your age already!"
EX Iori: "You concern yourself with the most inane things.... Do you want to die
here?"
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "I know you probably don't wanna hear this, but I actually kinda enjoy
fighting you. I believe that fighting against strong warriors only makes
me stronger, too!"
EX Iori: "Hmph.... You 'seeking true strength' types are a really pathetic
bunch, aren't you?"
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. SAIKI
EX Iori: "Where is Ash Crimson? Spit it out, or else...."
Saiki: "Don't ask me. I don't know either. Never mind that, anyway. How about
you and me have a little fun before you leave, eh? I'll even make it
cheap for you. All I'll take is your life! What could be cheaper?"
EX Iori: "Your own life, maybe? I'll use that as advance payment."
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "I don't care if you have your flames or not. All I care is if you're
strong or weak...and whether I'll have fun beating you!"
EX Iori: "You're beyond salvation.... You can't even tell a simple thing like
that? We don't even need to fight, because the answer's as plain as
day.... You don't stand a chance against me."
Shen: "What are you talking about!? The whole point of this tournament is to
find out who's the strongest fighter!"
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. SIE KENSOU
Kensou: "You're looking troubled as usual.... Would it kill you to cheer up
once in a while?"
EX Iori: "Wipe that smug look off your face, boy, before I wipe it off for
you."
Kensou: "See, you can't even hold a normal conversation! Oh, well. I guess
we're just gonna have to fight, then."
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "My Kyokugen style does not know the meaning of the word defeat! It
doesn't matter if my opponent uses the Kusanagi or Yagami style!"
EX Iori: "Do you think the Yagami and Kusanagi styles are the same!? Ha ha
ha.... You're even more stupid than you look."
Takuma: "It seems words alone will not do in your case. Let us continue this
conversation with our fists!"
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. TERRY BOGARD
EX Iori: "Get lost.... Unless you're looking to become a dog without any
teeth...."
Terry: "Hey, I'm not the one who's following people around here. You're
acting a lot more like a stray dog than I am, Yagami!"
EX Iori: "So you're not only looking to lose your fangs and claws but your
life as well?"
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. VICE
Vice: "I just remembered.... I still haven't repaid you for what you did to
me back then."
EX Iori: "What I did to you? What are you talking about?"
Vice: "Don't act all innocent. You know what I'm talking about. You certainly
didn't waste any time back then. If I'm going to join forces with you
again, we're going to have to take care of this matter first...."
EX Iori: "All right, I didn't have anything else to do, anyway. I hope you'll
enjoy being killed a second time."
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
EX Iori: "Stay away from me...or suffer the consequences."
Yuri: "If you're always telling people to stay away from you, why do you keep
entering KOF in the first place?"
EX Iori: "...Not to gossip with the likes of you, that's for sure."
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "Hmmm.... So you are the Magatama? You look like you haven't eaten in
months. I guess the sins of the father are passed onto the child, eh?
Don't worry, I'll free you from your family's curse! And of course,
when I say 'free', I mean 'burn you down to the very last molecule'!"
EX Iori: "You sure like to listen to yourself talk, don't you? You probably
don't have anything left to say now.... So die!"
IORI YAGAMI (EX) VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "Purple flames, infused with the power of Orochi, eh? My black fire will
put them out! I have dominated time! Neither the Sacred Treasures nor
Orochi can stand against my powers!"
EX Iori: "Why don't you go to some kindergarten and entertain the kids, huh? Get
lost now, or die."
JOE HIGASHI VS. JOE HIGASHI
Joe1: "You again! Are you trying to ruin my image again with those weird shorts
of yours!?"
Joe2: "You're the one with the freaky shorts! I'll have you know these are my
official super awesome victory trunks!"
Joe1: "Oh, shut up! I'll make you take those shorts off by force if I have to!"
Joe2: "That's my line, faker! Get ready to be humiliated! Your shorts are going
down!" (*)
* Author's note: Ugh.... I don't even wanna KNOW!
JOE HIGASHI VS. K'
Joe: "You're always saying you hate KOF so much, but somehow you always manage
to show up here. Just admit it! You love the attention!"
K': "Just cram it.... You're getting on my nerves!"
JOE HIGASHI VS. KIM KAPHWAN
Kim: "I've been hearing rumors that you've started to take disciples as well,
Joe."
Joe: "Well, it's nothing as official as disciples, but I'm teaching some people
some stuff, yeah."
Kim: "Yet I assume you will quit your current profession in favor of coaching?"
Joe: "Heck no! I'll be doing this forever! I'll be Joe the Champ 'til the day I
die!"
JOE HIGASHI VS. KING
Joe: "Let me just tell you that your fake Muay Thai isn't going to stand a
chance against the real thing!"
King: "*sigh* I'm getting so sick of these guys acting like they have the only
opinion that counts. Who cares what you think is fake and what you call
real!? Looks like the only way to shut you up for good is to show you
once and for all who's stronger!"
Joe: "Right! Losers don't get to do any explaining! That's the iron rule in
this world!"
JOE HIGASHI VS. KULA DIAMOND
Joe: "This urchin is my next opponent? Are you serious!? You cannot be
serious!"
Kula: "Hey, what's an urchin!? Can I eat it? Does it taste good!? Come on,
tell me!"
Joe: "Well, yeah, you can eat it, but.... Arrgh! This is why I hate having
kids at fighting tournaments! Let's just finish this!"
Kula: "What are you so angry about? You're weird.... Did I make you hungry or
something?"
JOE HIGASHI VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Kyo: "So, uh.... Are you sure that leaving the Muay Thai ring was such a good
idea? You could've been an undefeated champ if you'd just kept fighting
in the Muay Thai ring...."
Joe: "And you'd be undefeated if you just sat around protecting your ancient
rituals. You're here for the same reason I am. We both need to test
ourselves against the best of the best!"
Kyo: "I hate to admit it but you're probably right!"
JOE HIGASHI VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
Joe: "Well, I guess even a dud like you can always serve to make the truly
talented people look good. In that sense, the world tends to work out
pretty well for everyone. Don't you think so?"
EX Kyo: "The only thing you're good at is spouting gibberish. You've got me
beat when it comes to that, I'll admit."
JOE HIGASHI VS. LEONA
Joe: "I won't be so boorish as to poke fun at you for being a woman. Come and
get it if you think you've got what it takes!"
Leona: "I will. That is my mission."
Joe: "Great, let's do this! I'll show you the strength of an undefeated
champion!"
JOE HIGASHI VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Joe: "Because we're friends, let me give you some advice: You really need to
stop wearing those revealing outfits! You look like you have no shame,
you know? If my girlfriend wore stuff like that, I wouldn't let her
leave the house!"
Mai: "Revealing!? No shame!? This is the traditional ninja garb of the
Shiranui family! And where do you get off telling people what they
should wear, Boxer Boy!?"
JOE HIGASHI VS. MATURE
Mature: "How are you, Mr. World Champion? Listen, could you just forfeit?
You're in the way."
Joe: "What!? You dumb blonde! You think you can talk to the mighty Joe Higashi
like that!? You're going to regret the day you disrespected me! Don't
think you'll get off easy just because you're a woman!"
JOE HIGASHI VS. MAXIMA
Joe: "Yahoooooo! Here's Hurricane Joe, bringing the storm!"
Maxima: "I was wondering what all the noise was. You sure like to make a loud
entrance every time."
Joe: "Shut up, you robofreak! I'll turn you into scrap before you can say
'syntax error'!"
Maxima: "*sigh* ...I'm not a robot, I'm a cyborg. Why can't people
understand!?"
JOE HIGASHI VS. MR. KARATE
Joe: "The Legendary Karateka!? First wolves, now Karateka.... Legends sure
come cheap in South Town, don't they? Right, let me teach you a valuable
lesson in what it means to be a real legend! They call me the Summoner of
Storms! I am Joe Higashi, the Living Legend!"
Mr. Karate: "Just stop talking and attack me already!"
JOE HIGASHI VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "Geh he he, what is it, kid? You back for another dose of my poison
breath?"
Joe: "Poison breath!? I'll blow it right back in your face with my hurricane!
Get ready to eat poisocane!"
Raiden: "Still running your mouth nonstop. Let's get it on!"
JOE HIGASHI VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "Storm this, Hurricane that, you never stop boasting, do you? Have you
heard the saying, 'All bark and no bite'?"
Joe: "What, are you so blind that you can't tell the difference between a tiger
and a dog anymore?"
Ralf: "Zip your lips, kid! Tigers and dogs are all the same from where I'm
standing! They're on the ground on all fours. Get it?"
Joe: "You're the one who needs to understand something here, old man! I'm even
stronger than a tiger, pal."
JOE HIGASHI VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Joe: "He he! So I hear there's some other guy running around yelling about how
he's some kind of tiger...."
Robert: "I'm not yelling about it. It's not like I chose the name 'Mightiest
Tiger' myself."
Joe: "Not only are you trying to steal my claim to the word 'tiger', but you're
trying to claim 'mightiest' as well? Those are both MY titles, pasta boy!"
JOE HIGASHI VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Joe: "I'll acknowledge your spirit and willpower, but you still won't be able to
defeat me!"
Ryo: "I'm intrigued, Champion. What makes you think that?"
Joe: "Because skill and willpower alone will always lose to skill, willpower,
and talent combined!"
Ryo: "I think the only real difference between us is that you're way too into
yourself."
JOE HIGASHI VS. SAIKI
Joe: "I hear you possess some kind of strange power.... But I am Joe Higashi,
Summoner of Storms! I'll blow you and your useless little flames out in
the blink of an eye!"
Saiki: "I used to think of ignorance as a sin, but it can actually be kind of
cute once it's been honed to perfection by someone like you. The idiocy
of mankind never ceases to amaze me! Do they call you the 'Legendary
Moron' or something?"
JOE HIGASHI VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "I see the fire in your eyes! You even seem to have a little bit of
confidence in yourself!"
Joe: "A little bit!? Do you have any idea who you're talking to, punk?"
Shen: "Some other Japanese hooligan? Does it even matter? Let's get this over
with."
JOE HIGASHI VS. SIE KENSOU
Joe: "You're a lucky kid to get to study under that teacher of yours. But it
wouldn't hurt to get outside and feel some fresh new winds for a change!
You'll develop a bit more of a fighting appetite, which is just what you
need at this point."
Kensou: "I'll train the way I wanna train. I don't need you trying to tell me
how I need to get better. Besides, I'm hip and living in the big city!
I don't need your out-of-date fighting appetite!"
Joe: "You talk all big, but I know you just don't want to run the risk of
losing Athena!"
Kensou: "Who cares!? Why don't you mind your own business, huh!? I'm gonna make
you pay!"
JOE HIGASHI VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Joe: "Look, I don't want to hear your torturous lectures! Just attack me
already! You're strong, right?"
Takuma: "Ha ha ha, still the same spirited young man! Very well, let me show you
my Demon Fist!"
Joe: "Yes! That's what I'm talking about! This is gonna be fun! This is what
real fighting is about!"
JOE HIGASHI VS. TERRY BOGARD
Joe: "OH, YEAHHHHH! Here comes Joe! Joe Higashi, the living legend! Joe's gonna
give it to ya!"
Terry: "You're always making a big entrance.... I honestly think you spend more
energy in the pre-fight than you do during the fight."
Joe: "First, that's none of your business! Second, shut up! Just for that, I'm
gonna take you down more spectacularly than anyone I've ever beaten
before!"
JOE HIGASHI VS. VICE
Joe: "Orochi? Bah! I eat crocodiles for breakfast, baby! Do you think I'm going
to be scared of snakes?"
Vice: "Do you really think Orochi is nothing more than a serpent? Oh, you're
going to feel pretty stupid for making that mistake!"
JOE HIGASHI VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Joe: "Hey, Yuri! If you're going to copy someone, let it be me, and not Terry or
your brother!"
Yuri: "What? Copy you? I'd be way too embarrassed if I did that...."
Joe: "Excuse me!? What exactly is so embarrassing about Muay Thai, huh?"
Yuri: "Ummm.... It's not Muay Thai, it's just, you know.... Everything else
about you besides the Muay Thai?"
Joe: "What the-!? That does it! You asked for this! You sowed the storm and now
you're gonna reap the whirlwind, girl!"
JOE HIGASHI VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "So you want to fight someone strong, do you? Rejoice then, for before
you is the strongest opponent that has ever existed! Unfortunately,
you'll never be able to defeat this opponent no matter how hard you
struggle! That's the difference between our strengths!"
Joe: "A bit drunk with power, eh? You're so full of yourself it's starting to
make me laugh! Well, allow me to knock the cobwebs outta your head and
bring you back to sober! That way you'll know how stupid you look! I am
Joe Higashi! The Man of infinite legend! You don't scare me!"
JOE HIGASHI VS. DARK ASH
Joe: "Hmmm? You're...Ash Crimson, aren't you?"
Ash: "What does it matter at this moment if you know who I am? At this moment,
all human history is about to be expunged. Turned into nothing but ashes!"
Joe: "I'm sick of listening to your endless boasting! Grandstanding is MY job!
I'll pound your face in first and ask questions later!"
K' VS. K'
K'1: "...The hell are you? No one told me about this...."
K'2: "Just looking at you pisses me off...! I only need one of me around here!"
K'1: "What a pain.... I'll end this quickly."
K' VS. KIM KAPHWAN
Kim: "It's not too late.... You are still corrigible! Stop your terrorist ways
and become a respectable young man!"
K': "I don't remember ever becoming a terrorist.... You shouldn't go around
running your mouth off like that."
Kim: "You obviously do not intend to listen to reason. Very well! I shall have
to resort to force!"
K': "We all knew that was where this was going, you windbag. Why waste time in
the first place?"
K' VS. KING
King: "That doesn't look like the kind of face that enjoys a good drink. Oh,
wait.... You're underage? Anyway, why don't you try smiling a bit more,
like that kid you have with you?"
K': "You're kidding me.... I'm not as dimwitted as she is."
King: "Aww, I think you're just being shy! That's pretty cute!"
K': "...All right, that does it. Get ready to get burned!"
K' VS. KULA DIAMOND
K': "What are you even doing in a place like this?"
Kula: "What.... What am I doing? I...I dunno?"
K': "Then get out of here! Or you'll get hurt...."
K' VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Kyo: "Man, life must be really hard for you. I feel sorry for you, I really do."
K': "Shut up.... Just.... Shut. Your. Mouth!"
Kyo: "I see. I guess you don't need any pity!"
K' VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
K': "Nothing personal here, but...just looking at your face ticks me off for
some reason."
EX Kyo: "Hey, don't hate me because I'm beautiful, man! Let's make this an
honest fight. Something tells me we could both do with some stress
relief!"
K' VS. LEONA
K': "Why aren't you doing anything...? It's getting on my nerves...."
Leona: "To be honest, I think I'm doing plenty.... Why are you ignoring me?"
K': "No reason.... Tch, I feel like I've said too much."
Leona: "Indeed.... Neither of us is the talkative type."
K' VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Mai: "Why are you always so moody about? You should be happy to have such a
vision of loveliness in front of you!"
K': "...Huh? What on earth are you blabbing about? Shut up already...."
Mai: "Oh, don't be shy! Come on, let's have some fun!"
K': "Dumbass.... I'll crush you!"
K' VS. MATURE
Mature: "Aren't you tired of your pointless life? It's all right, I'll make it
all better now."
K': "Sorry, but I'm a bit of an insomniac. Putting you to sleep is going to be
much quicker."
Mature: "Hmm.... So you're the type that gets haunted by nightmares, are you?
Don't worry, I'll end all your dreams right now!"
K' VS. MAXIMA
K': "What are you staring at? You lookin' for a fight?"
Maxima: "Sometimes updates are required. For your data as well as mine...."
K': "Enough of this crap! Where's your off switch?"
K' VS. MR. KARATE
Mr. Karate: "I don't care how you came into this world. All that matters to me
is whether you are strong or not."
K': "I couldn't care less about what you think matters, you freak. I'll burn
you down to the last flake of your skin!"
K' VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "I guess your scowl is good enough, but you're way too frail to make a
good heel!"
K': "Huh? What on earth are you blabbering about?"
Raiden: "Hey! If you don't feel like you belong anywhere, why don't you try
and enter the pro wrestling ring?"
K': "You're barking up the wrong tree.... Go talk to my partner about that."
K' VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "You look grumpy as always, kiddo. Are you eating your vegetables?"
K': "Very funny.... Now get lost."
Ralf: "Get lost? No way! Getting punks like you riled up is way too much fun!"
K' VS. ROBERT GARCIA
K': "What do you want...? Looking for a fight?"
Robert: "Huh? Of course I am! Where do you think you are? Everyone's looking
for a fight here!"
K': "Ugh.... I'm getting so tired of dealing with you cocky types."
Robert: "Look who's all talkative all of a sudden. Now, let me show you what
I'm made of!"
K' VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "Hey, why don't you lighten up and have some fun, huh? You're on the big
stage now!"
K': "Shut up. I'm not here to have fun.... So I'm gonna make this quick....
Get ready."
Ryo: "You're only going to make mistakes, if you're gonna fight like that! Put
some weight behind those moves if you wanna dish out some meaty
punishment!"
K' VS. SAIKI
Saiki: "How is it that you, born as the tool of some self-proclaimed god, are
still allowed to walk the face of the earth? Time to die! No.... Time
to be taken apart! That is the fate of all discarded fools!"
K': "You talk too much, man! Maybe melting your face off will make you shut
up!"
K' VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "Hey, good to see you again, kid! Have you thought about becoming my
henchman yet?"
K': "You're delirious. Let me burn those stupid thoughts out of your mind!"
K' VS. SIE KENSOU
Kensou: "What, are you still being an anti-social loner? Girls stopped
thinking that stuff was cool ages ago! It's all about having a sense
of humor now! You should memorize a couple of good jokes!"
K': "...What are you talking about? Those jokes weren't funny at all! That was
just aggravating! Run off while you're still able to talk!"
K' VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "Are you satisfied with cursing your own misfortune all the time? That
must be a pretty easy way to coast through life."
K': "Easy...? What are you talking about!?"
Takuma: "If you've got time to sulk, then use it to fight! Don't curse your
fate, fight it!"
K': "Mind your own business! Get out of my sight, you noisy old man!"
K' VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "You seem to be depressed about a lot of things! You wanna talk about
it?"
K': "What, to you!? You think you're some kind of analyst or therapist or
something? It's just one loud-mouthed idiot after another here.... Maybe
they think this is supposed to be King of Blathering!"
Terry: "Hey man, be glad that all those loudmouths care about you. You're lucky
to have someone in this world who actually cares, you know? But maybe
you're just too young to understand how good you've got it!"
K' VS. VICE
Vice: "Get out of my sight.... I hate posers!"
K': "...Who the heck are you? You looking for trouble?"
Vice: "You don't seem to know your place, kiddo. Buzz off before I get really
angry!"
K' VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Yuri: "You're always scowling. Does anything good ever come out of being angry
all the time!?"
K': "...Are you stupid? Of course there isn't anything...."
Yuri: "Then why are you such a sourpuss all the time?"
K': "I'm sick of all your rambling.... This is just who I am."
K' VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "You're that modified human made by NESTS...."
K': "So what if I am? Who the heck are you, anyway?"
Saiki: "So you're the scum left behind by a man who failed to become a god? Tell
me, scum! What's it like to live like that? How does it feel!?"
K': "I don't know who you think you are, but I'm going to shut that big trap of
yours!"
K' VS. DARK ASH
K': "You're an eyesore.... I'll finish this quickly."
Ash: "You're not exactly easy on the eyes yourself.... You're not even human!"
K': "...Shut up! Like you're one to talk!"
Ash: "You hate yourself more than anything, don't ya? Don't worry, you'll be
reduced to ashes soon!"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. KIM KAPHWAN
Kim1: "It's good that you want to be like me! But you should copy both my body
and my mind!"
Kim2: "You talk tough for an imitation. But I wonder how much of a fight a
duplicate will be able to put up?"
Kim1: "Let's settle that right here and now! For there is no justice without
strength!"
Kim2: "And the strong protect justice...that is indeed the ideal."
KIM KAPHWAN VS. KING
Kim: "Muay Thai is a beautiful martial art, certainly, but my kicks will not
fall behind! I shall win this fight for the honor of Tae Kwon Do as
well!"
King: "*sigh* All you men are the same. Can't you fight without slapping some
justification like 'honor' onto it? You're such a pain to listen to."
KIM KAPHWAN VS. KULA DIAMOND
Kim: "This is an outrage! What's a child like you doing in the middle of a
fighting tournament!?"
Kula: "What! I don't like you! You treat me like I'm a little girl! It's too
late to take it back! I'm going to turn you into an ice sculpture!"
Kim: "Talking to your elders like that is the first step on the road to
delinquency! I must do something before you become a drain on society!"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Kim: "Kusanagi.... It seems you're still drifting through life, ignoring your
studies...."
Kyo: "Oh, uh, you see, I.... I have a perfectly good explanation for that...."
Kim: "I'd love to hear it...in front of your parents!"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
Kim: "Kyo! Just look at my new disciples! They are trying to gain new lives
through martial arts! How about it? Don't you feel like joining them at
my dojo and working up a good sweat?"</pre><pre id="faqspan-5">
EX Kyo: "I don't think those guys are fooling anyone but you, man."
KIM KAPHWAN VS. LEONA
Kim: "You there! What would you think of studying Tae Kwon Do to aid your
spiritual improvement!?"
Leona: "I don't need any more skill.... I need to learn to overcome my fears."
KIM KAPHWAN VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Kim: "I don't usually get hung up on the details, but...."
Mai: "Hm? What is it, Kim? You look like you're trying to say something...?"
Kim: "Don't you think that your ninja outfit might be disturbing public
decency? I have a spare Tae Kwon Do gi with me. Would you like to borrow
it?"
Mai: "Uh, no, I'm good.... I don't think I'd look good in a gi...."
KIM KAPHWAN VS. MATURE
Kim: "You're that Orochi girl, aren't you? Incorrigible as ever, I see...."
Mature: "I see you're still the same old broken record, yourself! I'm sick of
hearing you repeat your tune! I'll wipe you off the face of the
earth!"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. MAXIMA
Kim: "Disarm yourself at once and report to the local authorities! I'll
accompany you if you don't know the way. It's about time you washed your
hands of this terrorism business, and became a productive member of
society!"
Maxima: "I appreciate your words, but I'm afraid I don't know how to live my
life any other way. Besides, telling me to disarm myself is like me
asking you to remove your chest!"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. MR. KARATE
Kim: "So this is Mr. Karate.... Mr. Sakazaki's alter ego!"
Mr. Karate: "Never mind him.... He won't be able to help you where you're
going."
Kim: "Very well, then! Let us fight! Show me the legend of the Unbeatable
Karateka!"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "Hey, Master Kim! I was hoping to run into you!"
Kim: "Please, calling me Master is too much. What can I do for you, my pupil?"
Raiden: "I was thinking, if I beat you here, is that enough proof that my
strength can protect justice? Will you recognize my change and let me
'graduate'?"
Kim: "Hmmm. You have been practicing very diligently lately. Very well, then!
If you win, you will graduate!"
Raiden: "Gwa ha ha! I'm going to pay you back for all the hard work you made me
do!"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. RALF JONES
Kim: "In my home country, Tae Kwon Do is used to train army soldiers for
combat. Would you like to use some Tae Kwon Do in your unit as well?"
Ralf: "You should bring your suggestion to the Commander. Personally, I'd be
happy without Tae Kwon Do. Can you see me pulling off an axe kick with a
body like this? No way, man!"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Robert: "Kim, my man! You're spending so much time educating your students, I'm
worried that you don't spend enough time on yourself!"
Kim: "A groundless fear, I assure you! Try to take me on and you will see soon
enough!"
Robert: "Great! I wouldn't want to waste time on a boring fight!"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "Sorry buddy, but I don't really care about good and evil. I just want to
become a better fighter. I only want to be stronger! That's all!"
Kim: "I respect the fact that you constantly seek to improve yourself.... But
the strong also have a duty to fulfill! This is something that you must
understand!"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. SAIKI
Kim: "Wha...!? I never would have thought that anything as purely evil as you
could exist!"
Saiki: "You haven't even been around for 30 years, but you already think you've
seen it all.... The arrogance of you humans never fails to amaze me.
Remember my face, boy, for it belongs to the one that will destroy your
pitiful sense of justice!"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. SHEN WOO
Kim: "You possess such power yet you waste your time and ability picking fights
in the streets. It seems you need someone to teach you what to do with
your strength."
Shen: "So what you're saying is that you're going to beat me up, is that it?
Then shut up and start attacking me already!"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. SIE KENSOU
Kim: "Hm.... It seems you have recovered from your temporary slump, Kensou."
Kensou: "Yeah, I'm glad I've been able to pull things together. A lot of people
were worried about me...."
Kim: "To be frank, I was thinking it might be a good idea to have you enroll in
my dojo for a while...."
Kensou: "Huh? R-Really? W-Well, I'm all better now, so that's not really
necessary anymore, but thanks...."
Kim: "Oh no, it is still not too late! Why don't you try a good workout at my
dojo for a change?"
Kensou: "A-Are you trying to recruit me!? Sorry, but I have no intentions of
starting Tae Kwon Do!"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "Teaching pupils in a dojo is all well and good, but it's at times like
these that I feel truly alive!"
Kim: "I know what you mean. At the end of the day, we are both martial artists!
Sometimes it's important to forget who we are and just have a good fight
to see who's the strongest!"
Takuma: "Ha ha ha! That's exactly what I mean! Let us throw off all our cares
and put everything into this fight!"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "It's good that you want to educate people who are, um, on the wrong
path, but I think you went too far with your choice of pupils this
time."
Kim: "Nonsense. The path of justice is open for all to walk! I will turn all of
them into law-abiding citizens. Why don't you join them, Terry? Maybe your
mind could use some purification, too."
Terry: "No thanks. I'll stick to regular training like a normal person."
KIM KAPHWAN VS. VICE
Vice: "Oh hey, if it isn't Mr. Justice! How's your lecturing going? If you like
education so much, why don't you allow me to give you some lessons?"
Kim: "Enough talk, vile monster! No matter how many times you reappear, I will
be here to thwart your schemes!"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Kim: "Brother and sister competing in battle and honing each other's skills....
What a rare and marvelous sight!"
Yuri: "Huh? Don't you have two sons?"
Kim: "I do! But, well, the youngest is okay, but the eldest is a bit of a
slacker.... I don't know what's going to become of that boy. I should try
to.... But, no, that won't work.... I...ummm...."
Yuri: "Excuse me! Hello!? Kim? I think maybe we should start fighting now....
Kim...?"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. TRUE SAIKI
Kim: "You.... Are you with that Magaki guy? Because I can't let you get away if
you are!"
Saiki: "Do I look like I'm the same as that miserable waste of space? You need
to get your eyes checked."
Kim: "Not the same.... You are even more evil than he was. I will stop you, in
the name of my honor!"
Saiki: "You humans always think you know exactly what is good and what is evil.
Your opinions aren't worth anything! But never mind, this should be a
fun diversion. I should enjoy this moment, since all of you will cease
to exist shortly!"
KIM KAPHWAN VS. DARK ASH
Kim: "Ash.... I should have shown you the right path before you ended up like
this.... But it's still not too late! I will stop you right here and now!"
Ash: "Who are you talking to? Haven't you noticed what's going on yet? Are you
really that dim? You have no idea what's going on here! You humans are
even more worthless than garbage!"
KING VS. KING
King1: "I can't do this. I can't fight someone whose only talent is copying
people."
King2: "Already making excuses in case you lose, huh? If you're so scared of
losing, just get out of here while you still can."
King1: "There's no fun in taking on someone whose every move you already know.
But if you're that eager to lose, let's play!"
KING VS. KULA DIAMOND
Kula: "Hey, do you work at a restaurant? Could you bring me some sorbet?"
King: "Well, it's not exactly a restaurant, but we do have some sorbet."
Kula: "Sor-what? I don't want sorbet! I want sherbert! You don't know what they
are?"
King: "...Is anyone here missing their kid? An annoying little girl...? Anyone?"
KING VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Kyo: "A female bouncer, huh? How's that personal Muay Thai style working out for
ya? If you think the skills that you honed by beating up drunks are going
to work on me, you're about to get a painful lesson!"
King: "You should try working at my bar. You'll have a bit more respect once you
know what it's really like. Every fight there could be your last! I don't
lose to men drunk on alcohol, and I'm not going to lose to a boy drunk on
his own delusions!"
KING VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
King: "History isn't just about piling up years, Kyo. You have to use that time
to actually improve yourself."
EX Kyo: "And what's that supposed to mean? You make it sound like I've just been
sitting around all this time."
King: "That's not what I'm saying. I just have the impression that you've been
waving this '1800 years of history' thing around like some kind of status
symbol. Those 1800 years aren't going to look very good if you just lose
in the blink of an eye, are they?"
EX Kyo: "Oh, don't worry about that. There's no way I'm going to lose anyway!"
KING VS. LEONA
Leona: "Target located.... Starting mission...."
King: "You're a straightforward one! Well, why waste words, right? Okay, I guess
it's 'Mission Start' for me, too!"
KING VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Mai: "You know, I don't really care who gets to be the leader.... But don't you
think we should at least make sure which of us is the strongest?"
King: "I can tell by the look on your face that you think it's you. Ah well,
whatever! There's no harm in finding out how strong we both are!"
KING VS. MATURE
Mature: "Hmmm.... You're a pretty one! I love picking pretty flowers!"
King: "Just remember that every rose has its' thorn. Once you've grabbed hold of
it, it'll be too late!"
Mature: "I wonder how pretty you will look when you're snapped in two? I'm going
to have some fun with you, little flower!"
KING VS. MAXIMA
King: "I know this is a weird question, but do you ever get drunk?"
Maxima: "It's one of the few downsides to this body.... Drinking has no effect
on me anymore."
King: "That's a shame. That's one less thing that you can appreciate in life."
Maxima: "Hmmm. If I didn't know any better, I'd swear I could see you smiling
just now."
King: "I'd never do that! I don't take joy in seeing other people in complete
misery!"
Maxima: "Grrr.... Who cares about alcohol!? I'm more into desserts anyway!"
KING VS. MR. KARATE
King: "Hey, if it isn't Ryo's dad! What's up? You're looking kinda weird
today...."
Mr. Karate: "Your strength, your wits, and your resolution.... Show them to
me!"
King: "Okay, you seem to be more serious than I thought.... Let's do this!"
KING VS. RAIDEN
King: "Whenever I see you, I'm always reminded of this really nasty guy...."
Raiden: "Hmm.... Describe this guy to me."
King: "Him? He's a foul, fat gasbag with a nasty laugh. He's such a vile human
that he could give you a run for your money!"
Raiden: "I don't think I've ever felt this angry hearing someone else being
badmouthed...."
KING VS. RALF JONES
King: "I used to be a bouncer, so I know how to deal with big guys like you."
Ralf: "Hey, don't compare me to a bunch of drunks at a sleazy bar! When I get
serious, I can easily level one or two bars like yours in the blink of an
eye!"
King: "That's exactly the kind of talk I'm used to silencing! Let me show you
how...."
KING VS. ROBERT GARCIA
King: "You and Ryo's father.... What are you up to?"
Robert: "Huh? What are you talking about? I'm not up to anything! Let's do this,
already! Show me if you've improved at all since we last met!"
King: "Still cocky as ever. Ah well, why not? I've got time to give you a quick
lesson in fighting!"
KING VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
King: "Let's go, Ryo! And don't you even dare to go easy on me!"
Ryo: "Don't worry! I always put everything into every fight!"
King: "Ha ha, you probably couldn't even go easy if you tried...."
Ryo: "Going easy on you won't get me anywhere, anyway! That's why I always like
fighting you!"
KING VS. SAIKI
King: "Man, I just can't get a rest, can I? Are you some kind of Ash
impersonator or something?"
Saiki: "My semblance to him is proving to a bit of a problem, yes. It seems I am
never taken seriously by those who see me. But I'm sure you will come to
regret your insolence once you find out my actual identity."
KING VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "What, I gotta fight a woman next!? Gimme a break!"
King: "What's so bad about having to fight a woman? If you underestimate me
you're gonna be leaving in an ambulance!"
Shen: "It's not that women can't fight. It's just that I hate the sounds of your
shrieks when you're eating my punches!"
KING VS. SIE KENSOU
King: "I shouldn't have to tell you this, but if there's someone you want to
protect, you should try a little harder!"
Kensou: "Y-Yeah, I know.... But I'm trying so hard, you know!?"
King: "Then show me! I'm sure she'll be watching, too!"
Kensou: "A-Alright! Let's go! I'll make you proud, Athena!"
KING VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "Show me your strength one more time. Otherwise, I cannot accept you!"
King: "Why do you have to accept me? What on earth are you talking about?"
Takuma: "Nevermind the details! Attack me!"
KING VS. TERRY BOGARD
King: "Bring it on, Wolfy! I can take anything you can dish out!"
Terry: "Every rose has its' thorn.... I learned that fighting Mary. (*) There's
no art in just brute force, right? I'll show that I can fight with
skill, too!"
* Author's note: Well, I learned that from Poison....
KING VS. VICE
King: "That stare is really freaky! Can't you do anything about that?"
Vice: "Sorry, it's just that you look so tasty.... I'm overcome by hunger!"
King: "Ugh, that's not helping at all. Cut that rubbish out! I hate your sense
of humor!"
Vice: "Oh, you think I'm joking? Ah ha ha ha! So naive...."
KING VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Yuri: "Oh, that's right! I always meant to ask...."
King: "What is it? I hope I can be of assistance...."
Yuri: "Be honest with me here. What do you think of my brother?"
King: "What!? Wh-What are you asking me that for!? Is this the time or place to
be talking about that!?"
Yuri: "Hmmm? What's the matter, King? You seem flustered all of a sudden!"
King: "N-No, I'm not! It's.... I just.... Let's...uh.... Let's do this!"
Yuri: "Tee hee, I can read you like an open book. Looks like I already won this
one!"
KING VS. TRUE SAIKI
King: "That appearance.... Who are you? I can tell you're not one of the good
guys...."
Saiki: "That's no way to talk, mademoiselle. Or should I call you 'maggot'?
Because all humans are maggots! And I'll treat you all equally and
without bias like the worms you are!"
King: "Your vocabulary's quite limited, isn't it? I'm more amazed than I am
angry.... But, well, you've come this far. Let's hear the rest of your
story, huh?"
KING VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "You're like a moth! Drawn to my flames, even though you know they'll kill
you."
King: "You think we humans are like moths? You sound just like a bratty child!
Just an insolent child running around and showing off his toys!"
Ash: "Toys, eh? We'll see. Now, come into the light, maggot!"
KULA DIAMOND VS. KULA DIAMOND
Kula1: "Huh? Do I know you from somewhere? Have we met before?"
Kula2: "Hmm.... I have the feeling I see you every morning.... Ummm.... Who are
you again? Ah well, whatever! Let's get going! If I win, I'm getting a
strawberry sundae!"
Kula1: "I can't lose either! I'm getting a bucket of ice cream."
KULA DIAMOND VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Kula: "I hate fire! I hate people who control fire! Get away from me!"
Kyo: "I've always wanted to talk to you about this. Aren't you contradicting
yourself? That guy with the sunglasses controls fire like I do, you know?
So why don't you yell at him!? It ticks me off!"
KULA DIAMOND VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
EX Kyo: "Act like a good girl and go home, will you? I don't want to waste my
time having to fight weaklings!"
Kula: "Don't make fun of me! I can put out your flames with my eyes closed!"
EX Kyo: "Can you, now? Okay, but don't start crying if you lose! It'll make me
look bad!"
KULA DIAMOND VS. LEONA
Leona: "...How do you do it? How can you laugh like that?"
Kula: "Huh? You want to laugh? Why?"
Leona: "The Colonel told me to laugh more.... It's an order...."
Kula: "That's funny! I laugh all the time when fighting! I just can't help
myself...."
KULA DIAMOND VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Mai: "If you're going to model yourself on anyone, let it be me, not those trees
you hang out with."
Kula: "Huh? But they're all so much stronger than you! That's why I want to be
like Diana, Foxy, and Seirah!"
Mai: "What the.... I'll teach you who's the strongest woman around here! You
think you can say anything you want just because you're a little cute,
huh? I'll kick your butt until you're bawling!"
KULA DIAMOND VS. MATURE
Mature: "Oh, what a cute little dolly! I love getting dolls and pulling out all
the limbs out of their sockets!"
Kula: "Dolly? Do you mean me? I'm no dolly!"
Mature: "You're so clueless.... Well then, I'll teach you a thing or two!"
Kula: "I don't need to learn anything from you! Seirah, Foxy, and Diana already
taught me enough!"
KULA DIAMOND VS. MAXIMA
Kula: "Let's go, uncle! If I win, strawberry sorbet's on you!"
Maxima: "...If I win, could you please stop calling me 'uncle'?"
KULA DIAMOND VS. MR. KARATE
Kula: "Wow! What a funny-looking mask! How can you even see out of that thing?"
Mr. Karate: "For such a young child to be involved in this scene of carnage....
I suppose it would only be considered charity for me to relieve
you of this situation!"
KULA DIAMOND VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "What's up, little girl? You want an autograph?"
Kula: "I like writing my autograph, too! I always used to sign it on Candy's
head! Shall I sign your butt for you, mister?"
Raiden: "I don't even think she's understanding me. Since when did KOF become a
day-care center!?"
KULA DIAMOND VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "I don't intend to go easy on you, but I don't feel right beating up
children...."
Kula: "Then why don't you just go home now? That way you won't have to feel
bad, and I'll win by default! Yay me!"
Ralf: "Wait, wait, wait -- that won't be happening. If you want to get hurt so
badly, we can play fighter for a bit!"
Kula: "Yay! I love playing fighter! Let's go!"
KULA DIAMOND VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Kula: "You know what K' told me the other day? He told me not to trust guys
that talk too much! You like to talk a lot, so that means I shouldn't
trust you, right?"
Robert: "What's that squirt trying to do, huh? I can't have any weird rumors
going around!"
KULA DIAMOND VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "Why don't you join my Kyokugen dojo? You're still young, so it should be
a great experience!"
Kula: "Sure, as long as Diana can join, too! Kyokugen sounds great!"
Ryo: "Great! If we get more girls in the dojo, I'm sure it'll make Yuri a bit
less grouchy."
Ryo: "So, what is Kyokugen anyway? Can I eat it? Is it cold?"
KULA DIAMOND VS. SAIKI
Kula: "I don't like this guy's flames...."
Saiki: "Then why did you bother coming here? Were you not aware of the
consequences!? Surely you're aware that your very presence here denies
you the right to complain about being beaten and burned to death?"
KULA DIAMOND VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "Hey you! Why don't you run back to mommy, huh? The only thing worse than
beating up a woman is beating up a little girl! Get lost before you get
hurt!"
Kula: "You're the one that needs to worry about getting hurt! I'll crush you
and be eating ice cream in no time!"
KULA DIAMOND VS. SIE KENSOU
Kensou: "No! Don't eat that! You shouldn't eat so much cold food! You'll have
stomach trouble if you keep eating nothing but ice cream! You need to
eat some hot food as well!"
Kula: "Hot food? Like what? Is there anything more delicious than strawberry
sorbet?"
Kensou: "Pork buns, duh! Char siu bao are the best!"
Kula: "Never heard of it! Sorbets are much more tasty!"
KULA DIAMOND VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "Hmmm.... I didn't think I was going to have to fight anyone here who
was younger than my daughter...."
Kula: "Are you afraid of me, mister? Because I'm not afraid of you! So there!"
Takuma: "I see. This girl is obviously not a normal person. I can't believe I
considered going easy on you, no matter how briefly it was. Hwa ha ha!
So green! I'm still so wet behind the ears! I'm ashamed of myself!"
Kula: "Umm...getting scared, then laughing like crazy? You're really weird,
mister...."
KULA DIAMOND VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "Hey, kiddo. You know, every time I see you, you're eating some kind of
sweets. If you keep that up, you'll regret it in the future! You should
at least stick to low-calorie ice cream!"
Kula: "Low-calorie? What does that mean? What are calories!?"
Terry: "Uh, look, why don't you just ask your uncle to explain it sometime...."
KULA DIAMOND VS. VICE
Vice: "Another weird kid.... Is this some kind of joke? I don't look at all like
a babysitter!"
Kula: "I'm not a kid! Don't call me that or I'll turn you into an ice
sculpture!"
Vice: "Really? You're not a kid? Great! Then I'm free to pulverize every bone in
your body!"
KULA DIAMOND VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Yuri: "Hey, why don't you join my team once in a while?"
Kula: "Will you give me ice cream? I'll do anything for ice cream!"
Yuri: "Huh? Does that mean that if someone else offers you ice cream, you'll
betray me just as fast!?"
KULA DIAMOND VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "There's still some time before I kill you. Any last prayers you want to
make?"
Kula: "What? Diana always told me there were no gods in this world...."
Saiki: "You look dumber than a hamster, but at least you're right about one
thing. There are no gods in this world. There is only the cruelness of
reality!"
KULA DIAMOND VS. DARK ASH
Kula: "I don't like the looks of you. Black fire is the worst!"
Ash: "You hate fire, huh? You're like some wild animal. Shall I domesticate you?
It should prove to be a nice pastime. You're certainly not worth any
greater effort."
Kula: "I have no idea what you're talking about, but I'll keep it short. I can
do this by myself!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. KYO KUSANAGI
Kyo1: "I've got to admire your persistence. I still don't know if you're a clone
or an illusion or what, though...."
Kyo2: "What!? That's my line, you miserable impostor!"
Kyo1: "Things just got interesting! Let's see who's the real Kyo here!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
Kyo: "Look, I really don't feel like talking about this, so let's just get with
the brawlin' and see who's the real one, okay?"
EX Kyo: "Sounds good to me.... After all, there's no way the real thing would
lose to a fake, right?"
Kyo: "Exactly! So let's get going! This is the kind of messy situation I like
to avoid!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. LEONA
Kyo: "Hey, you're not going to go all crazy on me again, are you?"
Leona: "I think I have it all under control now.... I will not back down...."
Kyo: "What!? So you could explode any minute? Again!? Get out of here! This is
no place for people who can't control themselves!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Kyo: "I shouldn't be surprised, but you sure have a lot of nerve trying to take
me on with fire."
Mai: "Shiranui fire is nothing like your fire! You'd better watch out or you're
going to get a third degree lesson!"
Kyo: "The same goes for you! I'll teach you who's the hottest in town!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. MATURE
Kyo: "You guys just don't know when to quit, do you? How many times do you need
to get burned before you learn not to play with fire!?"
Mature: "I see you're all wound up, as usual. I'll make sure to cool down your
fiery spirit! A flame always burns its' brightest right before it's
extinguished.... I'm expecting you to burn bright, Kusanagi! Don't
disappoint me!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. MAXIMA
Kyo: "So you're my next opponent, huh? This is going to require some strategy,
I think."
Maxima: "I never thought I'd hear something that humble from you."
Kyo: "I don't know what you've got in there. If I'm not careful you might
release poison or explode or something."
Maxima: "Thanks for worrying about the environment. I'll make sure to recycle
you once I'm finished with you."
KYO KUSANAGI VS. MR. KARATE
Mr. Karate: "So you are Saisyu Kusanagi's son.... You're still only a kid, but
I guess that can't be helped."
Kyo: "And what's that supposed to mean, old man? Do you know my dad, or what?
Even if you did, don't think that it makes you an expert on the Kusanagi
style! You'll find that out soon enough!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "He he he. You lookin' for your mommy, kiddo?"
Kyo: "No, but you're gonna be crying for yours when I turn you into a ball of
fire, piggy!"
Raiden: "Them's fightin' words! I'll show you what a pro wrestler's wild
ambition is all about!" (*)
Kyo: "Are you sure about that? You don't even look like you could go a single
round!"
* Author's note: Probably referring to Fatal Fury: Wild Ambition, the sole 3D
game in the FF universe.
KYO KUSANAGI VS. RALF JONES
Kyo: "Wow! You're pretty active for someone as old as you are. Isn't it about
time that you retired?"
Ralf: "Put a sock in it, kid! The day I need a squirt like you to worry about
my health is the day I check into a nursing home. Looks like it's time
for this old man's fists to beat some respect for age and experience
into your skull!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Kyo: "I thought you were retired? I don't have time to fight people who aren't
going to take this tournament seriously!"
Robert: "Yes, I'll have to take over my father's business at some point, but
it's still way too early for that!"
Kyo: "Well, if you're not going to retire, I'm not holding anything back! Don't
cry to me afterwards about me going too far!"
Robert: "Hey, I came here to have a serious fight too, you know? I'm not going
to break down crying now!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "This tournament is broadcast live across the entire planet! It's the
perfect chance for me to show everyone on Earth how fearsome Kyokugen
style karate is!"
Kyo: "I'm not trying to destroy the Sakazaki family's income.... But there's
not a soul out there who's going to want to enroll in your school after
they watch what happens to Kyokugen here! Sorry, but I'm not going to act
as the underdog! I've already wasted too much time here!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. SAIKI
Kyo: "Wow, an Ash Crimson look-alike, huh? Are you as much of a cocky little
bastard as he is?"
Saiki: "You are wrong, maggot. It is not I who looks like Ash Crimson. He looks
like me. ...Not that I would expect you to understand such a thing. Bwa
ha ha ha!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. SHEN WOO
Kyo: "You look like you'll burn easily, but I'm worried that you're gonna
release some toxic fumes! So as a precaution, I'm gonna reduce every last
molecule of Shanghai's self-proclaimed 'God of War' to carbon!"
Shen: "Watch your mouth, kid! You don't want to end up in a ditch somewhere, do
ya? Don't think your little sparks will work against me! I've been
fighting for my life every damn day on the streets!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. SIE KENSOU
Kensou: "I know you have your issues, but don't you think you're being a bit
too hot-headed? Look in the mirror, man! Your eyes are totally
bloodshot! You can't win when you're messed up like that!"
Kyo: "I can't believe that your advice started making sense there for a
second. I'm not turning back, but thanks, kid. This is my problem! I'm
going to solve it the way I see fit! That's how I roll!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Kyo: "Sorry, man, but this is the wrong place for you to try and attract new
students.... All the viewers on TV are going to learn about your style
from constantly replaying the moment I knock you out!"
Takuma: "Ha ha ha! You sure have a lot of pep, young rascal! I'll teach you
some decent manners in Saisyu's stead. Now come!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. TERRY BOGARD
Kyo: "Man, you're here every single time, aren't you? Are you going for a
perfect attendance record or something?"
Terry: "Ha ha ha! You couldn't keep me away from KOF! When I hear that lots of
strong fighters are getting together, I just can't resist!"
Kyo: "You're a sick individual, Terry.... I don't think there's any cure for
what you've got."
Terry: "Hey man, you're here every time I am, too! If I'm sick, then you're also
sick! Let's fight!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. VICE
Kyo: "Give it a rest already, you cold-hearted snakes! I'm getting sick of
hearing about Orochi all the time!"
Vice: "Silence, whelp! Just knowing you're the son of Saisyu is enough to get my
blood boiling!"
Kyo: "Huh!? What kind of stupid reason to pick a fight is that!? I'll burn you
into a pile of ash!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Kyo: "At the risk of sounding like a certain army man: Don't think you can get
by just by 'playing fighter'! This is not just a simple tournament.
There's always something going on behind the scenes."
Yuri: "So what else is new? I'm as ready for you as ever!"
Kyo: "You take after your older brother.... Or maybe I should say that you both
take after your father.... Well, let's get started then! I'm in a hurry!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. TRUE SAIKI
Kyo: "So you're the one that's behind everything this time? What are you up
to!?"
Saiki: "Why should I bother to explain? I don't need you to participate, you
just need to give me your power! I'll make sure to put the power of
Orochi and the Three Sacred Treasures to good use!"
KYO KUSANAGI VS. DARK ASH
Kyo: "Ash Crimson!? No, that's not right.... You couldn't be...?"
Ash: "Why not? *sigh*.... You idiots are always making things so needlessly
complicated. And yet I'm the one who has to take care of your garbage!"
Kyo: "Who are you calling garbage!? I'm going to cremate you and leave your
ashes in a landfill!"
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. LEONA
EX Kyo: "It always hurts me to look at you. You claim to have overcome the
curse in your blood. Be honest with me. You're still not completely
over the past, are you? I can tell just by fighting you."
Leona: "...Even so, I cannot run away anymore. I've decided I have to live with
this fate."
EX Kyo: "I'll say this: you know what you're doing. I can only honor that by
fighting you without holding back. Let's go!"
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Mai: "It might have been a tournament I didn't enter, but either way, you're
officially number one in Japan in mixed martial arts. So, as the true
number one, I want you to understand that. You wouldn't want to disgrace
your country, would you?"
EX Kyo: "I sure wouldn't. So I guess I'm just going to have to knock your ass
out now. You leave representing Japan to me. Go sit in the audience and
cheer me on as I show everyone how awesome I am!"
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. MATURE
EX Kyo: "All this whining about Orochi.... Why don't you keep your petty little
problems to yourself, huh? I'm getting sick of listening to you!"
Mature: "Oh, are you? Well, I could always just kill you. That would solve a lot
of your problems."
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. MAXIMA
EX Kyo: "Hey, if it isn't Old Man Cyborg! Aren't you sick of baby-sitting that
twisted kid yet?"
Maxima: "Not at all. Besides, I get the impression that you have it a lot worse.
At least I don't have to deal with some psychotic stalker following me
around."
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "Heh heh heh! You know what I like most about bustin' up pretty boys
like you? The screams of horror from all the girls in the audience!
Hearing the booing from the audience is the best part of being a heel!"
EX Kyo: "I don't know what goes on in the minds of you wrestling maniacs, but
I'm afraid I'm going to have to disappoint you. There's no way I'm
gonna let myself get beaten up by the likes of you!"
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "Oh, hi, flunkie! You still think your flames are hotter than napalm?"
EX Kyo: "Who're you calling 'flunkie', old man? Watch your mouth, or it's gonna
get burnt!"
Ralf: "Now, now, no need to get all upset over something like that. You'll never
win if you don't learn how to keep your cool!"
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Robert: "Hey, just so I know in advance.... Do you have any health insurance?
Like, at all? Cuz, you know, you're going to be spending a lot of time
in the hospital. You don't want to have to pay for all that yourself!"
EX Kyo: "Sorry to disappoint you, but I've never been in a hospital once in my
entire life! ...Not as a patient, anyway. You're the one who should be
worried about yourself! Just think of what would happen to your company
stock if you get beaten to a pulp here!"
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
EX Kyo: "Hey, man.... Haven't you ever wondered what's the point in following in
your father's footsteps?"
Ryo: "I'm not following in his footsteps. I just ended up being really good at
karate somehow. Besides, if if hadn't been for karate, Yuri and I would
have never survived in that town. But why do you ask? Is something
bothering you?"
EX Kyo: "No.... No, forget about it. Let's just start fighting. And let's make
this a good one!"
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. SAIKI
EX Kyo: "Hey, where's Ash Crimson? And don't tell me you're not related to the
guy when you look like that."
Saiki: "Why do you ask? Shouldn't you be more worried about your own well-being
right now? In about a minute, there probably won't be anything left of
you but a pile of ashes, you know?"
EX Kyo: "Is that all you have to say? Guess I'll just have to make you talk!"
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "You seem to have been in a lot of fights...but you're still only a kid.
You can't beat me."
EX Kyo: "Not when it comes to running my mouth endlessly, no. So, is 'Shanghai's
God of War' nothing but talk, or what?"
Shen: "Huh? Oh, so you're one of those types who never learns anything unless he
gets hurt!"
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. SIE KENSOU
Kensou: "I'm sure you've got a lot on your mind, Kyo, but don't worry about a
thing and just go back to school. Leave the rest to Sie Kensou, Psycho
Soldier and Justice Fighter extraordinaire!"
EX Kyo: "Huh? Who in his right mind would let you handle anything? You can start
talking big once you've proven you're good enough to beat me!"
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
EX Kyo: "Hey, if you've got that much energy to spare, why don't you put it to
use sparring with my dad or something?"
Takuma: "It's exactly because of your father that I am here, Kyo. He asked me
to break the nose of that no-good son of his."
EX Kyo: "That loser! So he's finally given up and started to get other people to
do his stuff for him, huh!?"
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "Hey! What's happenin', man? Hope your precious flames haven't started
gutterin' out yet!"
EX Kyo: "You want to know how my flames are doing? Why don't I shove them down
your throat, then?"
Terry: "Wow! Someone got out on the wrong side of the bed today! This is gonna
be a really heated battle!"
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. VICE
Vice: "There you are, Kyo Kusanagi.... You and your miserable father have been
thorns in my side for long enough."
EX Kyo: "Huh? My deadbeat dad has nothing to do with this! Besides, it's you
people who never know when to quit! Right! I'll burn you to a crisp,
and you'll never show your face around here again!"
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
EX Kyo: "So it only takes a single year for a complete amateur to master the
Kyokugen style!? Doesn't seem like there's much to it then, is there?"
Yuri: "What!? How rude! I mastered it in a year because I'm a genius! Isn't
that obvious!? If you think I'm all talk, I'll be more than happy to
show you in a real fight. Are you ready?"
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "The power of Orochi is finally mine.... I can't have some little brat
foiling my plans again. It's time for the sword to disappear! Down to
its' very existence!"
EX Kyo: "What're you talkin' about!? You've got another thing comin', buddy!"
KYO KUSANAGI (EX) VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "The time to end everything is upon us.... Not only our battle, but your
human history as well.... Unfortunately, you will not be around to see
mankind's final moments. And do you know why? Because...."
EX Kyo: "Sorry to interrupt your little speech, but you're one of the cheapest
talkers I've ever met. Now let's fight already! And I'm not going to
lose to anyone who's nothing but talk!"
LEONA VS. LEONA
Leona1: "I have always struggled against the other me that's inside of me...."
Leona2: "That's right.... I'm used to fighting myself."
Leona1: "Let's do this quickly. Commencing mission...."
LEONA VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Leona: "Could you get out of my way, please...? I don't feel like wasting my
time and energy on you...."
Mai: "What's the matter? Scared? Just admit that you're scared and I'll go
easier on you!"
Leona: "You cannot defeat me...."
Mai: "You shouldn't say things like that if you're trying to avoid a fight,
missy."
LEONA VS. MATURE
Mature: "Don't you ever feel like just letting go and using your power for your
own good more? Listen to the longing deep in your soul!"
Leona: "I will not make the same mistakes again...."
LEONA VS. MAXIMA
Maxima: "So you're that mercenary fighting machine.... I don't suppose you'll
be letting me through?"
Leona: "If my mission requires me to stop you, then I'll do it."
Maxima: "Would you ever be here if it wasn't for your mission? Sorry, but your
mission today is a failure. Go back to base and report that to your
superior officers."
LEONA VS. MR. KARATE
Mr. Karate: "No passion, no impatience, no conceit.... All part of this
'self-control' you've gained, hm? Add to the fact that you've been
trained as a mercenary, and it's no wonder that you're so fearsome
for a little girl."
Leona: "I don't care what other people say about me.... I'm only here to do
what I'm supposed to do. Leona Heidern.... Carrying out the
mission...."
LEONA VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "I'm not too happy about there being so many women in KOF nowadays, but
it does give me the ability to scout...."
Leona: "Scout...? What are you talking about?"
Raiden: "He he he.... Right! Let's start your audition, then!"
Leona: "Audition...?"
LEONA VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "Right! Time to warm up for a bit!"
Leona: "Understood. Initiating operation 'Playing Fighter'."
Ralf: "He he he! Now we're talking!"
LEONA VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Leona: "You've got good balance, but using so many kicks is impractical."
Robert: "I guess using a lot of flashy kicks does ruin one's balance. It's like
a double edged sword. But I'm not some rookie, I'm a genius! So don't
you worry about my balance!"
LEONA VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "What's the matter, huh? Those eyes of yours lack vigor! You can't win if
your heart's not in it!"
Leona: "Whatever you say.... This is who I am...."
Ryo: "Of course it's important to stay calm, but in the end it all comes down to
spirit! Remember that!"
Leona: "Are you even listening...?"
LEONA VS. SAIKI
Leona: "I'm going to restrain you.... You are allowed to resist, but I don't
think it will help."
Saiki: "He he he.... You miserable Orochi failure! You have some real guts to
talk big in front of me! I know! Let me give you an appropiate reward!
How does an honorable death on the battlefield sound?"
LEONA VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "What do you want? I'm not here to fight girls. It's too boring."
Leona: "I know the horror of battle. I won't lose to someone who doesn't know
that fear."
Shen: "All your war babble just makes you sound like an idiot. Knowing how to
deal with land mines won't help you deal with my fists!"
LEONA VS. SIE KENSOU
Leona: "............"
Kensou: "...Huh? W-What?"
Leona: "............"
Kensou: "W-What's with the silent treatment, huh!? I know you're not really the
talkative type, but this is crazy!"
Leona: "You can't defeat me...."
Kensou: "Do you really have to wait all this time to say that!? That ticks me
off more than if you'd have just come out and said it at the start!"
LEONA VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "You carry yourself well, and you have a quiet determination.... Very
good for a young girl like yourself! Too bad that you lack experience,
though. You won't defeat my Demon Fists like that."
Leona: "I don't care how you evaluate me. All I care about is completing my
mission."
LEONA VS. TERRY BOGARD
Leona: "Leona Heidern.... Mission log...."
Terry: "Man, you're like some kind of robotic fighting machine. Is that really
what you want to be?"
Leona: "...I don't understand. What are you talking about?"
Terry: "I'm saying show some emotion! Enjoy the fight a little. That's gotta be
better than how you soldiers are carrying on."
LEONA VS. VICE
Leona: "You! Weren't you dead!?"
Vice: "If you want to find out, then why don't you lend us a hand? After all,
you used to be one of us, right?"
Leona: "I'm not with you! I have my comrades.... I'm definitely not with you!"
LEONA VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Leona: "Have you ever stared death in the face...?"
Yuri: "Huh? I guess if I had to answer, I'd have to say.... Uh....
I haven't...? But I'm prepared to do so any day of the week! I wouldn't
have gone into fighting otherwise!"
Leona: "I see.... I suppose that sounds much like you...."
LEONA VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "What do you want? Why is a girl with the blood of Orochi walking around
amongst humans?"
Leona: "I am a human.... I am not Orochi...."
Saiki: "You will never be human! Oh, and you'll likely never be Orochi either!
You would be better off dead! Let me bestow this act of mercy upon you!"
LEONA VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "Behold, child of Orochi! Watch, as I turn your leader into a miserable
little pile of ashes!"
Leona: "I am not Orochi.... I'll stop you...as a human being...."
Ash: "That's what makes you people so foolish. You think humans can actually
stop me!?"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. MAI SHIRANUI
Mai1: "I can see why you'd be infatuated with someone like me, but don't you
think this is taking it a bit too far?"
Mai2: "What? Who's infatuated with whom here? You're just trying to look like
me!"
Mai1: "Are you kidding me!? You're imitating me, and you didn't even do a very
good job!"
Mai2: "That does it! I'm going to make you eat those words!"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. MATURE
Mai: "Admit it, you're trying to make yourself popular with a brand new look,
aren't you! Unfortunately for you, no one's going to fall for it! Your
popularity's going to stay just as low as it is!"
Mature: "Sounds like you're speaking from personal experience there, missy!"
Mai: "Th-That's none of your business! Now you've done it! Bring it on!"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. MAXIMA
Mai: "A little bird told me that you run on maple syrup. Is that true?"
Maxima: "Who's filling your head with blatant lies like that!? ...I do love a
good sweet, though."
Mai: "All right. If you win, I'll give you some of my homemade donuts!"
Maxima: "It's a deal! Let me warn you right now, though: I can eat several dozen
boxes of those things at once!"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. MR. KARATE
Mr. Karate: "Your sad excuse for a fighting style will not be sufficient to
advance in this tournament. Allow me to put you out of your
misery!"
Mai: "Ooh! Feisty, aren't we? Let me give you a taste of my Shiranui skills
then!"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. RAIDEN
Mai: "Hey! I know you.... Oh yeah, you're that pro wrestler, Big--"
Raiden: "RAIDEN! I am Raiden! Raiden is who I am, and nothing more needs to be
said!"
Mai: "Wait, what? What's going on here? Why are you wearing a mask, anyway?
Didn't you take that off before?"
Raiden: "No comment! You shouldn't ask questions about touchy subjects like
that!"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. RALF JONES
Mai: "A soldier at a fighting tournament? Don't you people have to be somewhere
else?"
Ralf: "You're one to talk! You stand out like fireworks at a funeral! I thought
ninja were supposed to be stealthy and inconspicuous!"
Mai: "That's.... Those are just minor details! There's a time, place, and
occasion for everything!"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Robert: "This is gonna seem a bit out of the blue, but can you maybe do
something about that outfit of yours? You know how Yuri likes to
imitate people she admires. If she ever gets the idea that she should
start dressing like THAT...."
Mai: "Hey, what do you mean, 'dressing like that'!? I'll have you know this is
the traditional Shiranui uniform!"
Robert: "You've gotta be kidding me! Those shameless rags were passed down by
your ancestors!?"
Mai: "Shameless!? Rags!? Yuri! I'm going to have to beat the crap outta your
boyfriend now!"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. RYO SAKAZAKI</pre><pre id="faqspan-6">
Ryo: "Thanks for always taking care of my little sis! But, I'm not gonna give
you any favors here, ninja girl!"
Mai: "I wouldn't want you to. But, are you sure you wanna do this, Big Brother?
I've been training with Yuri a lot, so your Kyokugen style might not work
on me, you know?"
Ryo: "Don't think you've seen Kyokugen by studying my sister. Her style is far
too unorthodox!"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. SAIKI
Mai: "Oh, another one! And this Ash is all white! So, would you care to explain
what's going on? They say everyone has a twin somewhere in the world, but
I'm starting to lose count of you guys. What is up with you people,
anyway?"
Saiki: "I could explain, but your goldfish brain would fail to comprehend. I
think I'll just kill you instead. That way you won't have to worry
about such trivial matters!"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "Huh!? I thought that Japanese women were supposed to be modest!? There
isn't an ounce of modesty in you!"
Mai: "Hey! What gives you the right to talk to me like that? Don't think I'm an
exhibitionist just because I like to dress nice!"
Shen: "Not only do you dress like a stripper, but you have a big mouth, too!
Your mom must cry herself to sleep wondering why you turned out so
badly!"
Mai: "Wh-WHAT!? You're gonna pay now! I'll show you what happens when you're
stupid enough to get me mad!"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "Now that Hanzo is dead, the fate of the Shiranui style rests on the
shoulders of you two. I hope you realize the weight of this burden. Are
you ready to do whatever it takes to keep your style alive?"
Mai: "That was a nice speech, Yuri's daddy. Andy and I make the best team! Let
me show you that the Shiranui style is in good hands!"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. SIE KENSOU
Mai: "Hm? You seem to have changed a bit since we last met...."
Kensou: "Well, you haven't! Isn't it about time you went with a different path?"
Mai: "Of all the nerve! I'll have you know I tried a different look once, but it
didn't work out at all! You got a problem with me sticking with what
works!?"
Kensou: "Whoa, whoa! Don't explode on me like that! Are you sensitive about your
clothes or something!?"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. TERRY BOGARD
Mai: "Hi. Long time no see. Fancy meeting you here!"
Terry: "No! I don't know anything! I have no clue where Andy is! I can't hear
you, la la la la la!"
Mai: "I knew it! You know exactly where he is! Tell me! Tell me NOW!"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. VICE
Mai: "They say snakes are persistent, but it seems the same can be said about
all of you.... I don't know about this whole Orochi business, but it's too
late for you now! The avalanche has already started, it's too late for the
pebbles to vote!"
Vice: "Well, it's not that we're persistent, it's just that the Orochi Clan is
immortal! And yes, the avalanche has started, but it is you humans who
will discover that you are the pebbles! We will never be destroyed by the
likes of you humans!"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Mai: "Right! Time for another medical check-up, Yuri!"
Yuri: "Wait, wait, wait! Isn't that MY line? Let's see if you took good care of
yourself during the holidays!"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. TRUE SAIKI
Mai: "Wha...What happened to that white Ash? Who are you!?"
Saiki: "I am Saiki! I don't need to tell you any more than that, since you're
going to die anyway."
Mai: "You don't look like a normal human being. What are you up to? Tell me!"
Saiki: "I told you I don't need to! Or wait, perhaps I could tell you what my
intentions are.... To kill you! What blissful honor! You will get to die
by my hands!"
MAI SHIRANUI VS. DARK ASH
Mai: "Who are you? Did you and Ash get separated at birth or something?"
Ash: "Forget it, you'd never understand. Just concentrate on dying now."
Mai: "My, we're awfully cocky aren't we? You've got some nerve, new guy. Time
for punishment!"
Ash: "How I'm going to miss your sassy comebacks! Here's to all life being
destroyed by time!"
MATURE VS. MATURE
Mature1: "Wow, good job, you! You look almost like me!"
Mature2: "You too! But of course, you're not nearly as gorgeous as I am."
Mature1: "I think one beauty like me is enough for this world, though. If there
were more of me, the world might think I was common."
Mature2: "Well, that makes this simple. One of us is just going to have to
disappear then, right?"
MATURE VS. MAXIMA
Maxima: "You think your precious nails will have any effect on me? I'm made of
a sterner stuff than most people."
Mature: "Oh, don't worry. I'm used to dealing with men with thick skulls."
Maxima: "But, be nice, okay? I'm a lot more sensitive than I look!"
MATURE VS. MR. KARATE
Mr. Karate: "In Kyokugen Karate, being able to assess a situation in the blink
of an eye is the key to victory.... Can you do the same? Can you
tell when life may end?"
Mature: "My, what an interesting creature. I wonder if those fists will be able
to get through my defenses."
Mr. Karate: "Why don't you try me and see, woman...?"
MATURE VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "Hey you, how would you like a job as a ring girl? You and that partner
of yours would be a killer duo."
Mature: "Thanks, but try someone else. I enjoy people looking at me, but I
enjoy fighting even more."
Raiden: "Gah ha ha! Well, that's good! I can see I'm going to have some fun
with you!"
MATURE VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "You! Did you come here to mess with our comrade again!?"
Mature: "If you're so worried about her, then why don't you tie a ribbon around
her and lock her in a closet somewhere?"
Ralf: "Shut up! I don't know what you're up to yet, but I'm gonna punch it
outta ya soon enough!"
MATURE VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Robert: "Okay, let's get started! I have a date with Yuri after this!"
Mature: "You're really a simple man, aren't you? It's not even like you humans
have such a bright future waiting for you.... All that awaits is
judgment day. Just sit there and cower in fear until it arrives!"
Robert: "No way! Yuri and I have a long and happy life ahead of us!"
MATURE VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Mature: "You look so strong.... I wonder how many hits you can take. Would you
be a dear and show me what you look like writhing around in pain!"
Ryo: "I'm sorry, but that's a bit too odd for my tastes. You should find
someone else who's more into that kind of thing. I don't think you'll
find many takers, though...."
MATURE VS. SAIKI
Mature: "Oh my, look at what you've become.... Are you that desperate to escape
the death you are destined for?"
Saiki: "We were never meant to expire. It is mankind's destiny to be wiped from
the face of the planet. Besides, aren't we after the same thing here?
Isn't the Orochi Clan trying to wipe out mankind as well?"
Mature: "Not exclusively.... To Orochi, your lot is as much an eyesore as the
humans. And now it is time for you to go...to the darkness where you
belong!"
MATURE VS. SHEN WOO
Mature: "You look like a rabid dog with an attitude. Where's animal control when
you need them?"
Shen: "What!? Where do YOU get off calling me a dog, tramp!?"
Mature: "We can't have you running around free. Let me get you a leash. I'll
flay the skin from your body and turn it into a nice leather leash!"
Shen: "You know, for some reason, crazy women like you turn me on.... Let's
dance!"
MATURE VS. SIE KENSOU
Mature: "Hey, kiddo.... Promise me something. Promise that you'll never forget
me, okay?"
Kensou: "W-What the!? Why would you say a thing like that!? You're creeping me
out!"
Mature: "Hm hm hm.... Well, I'm going to be the last thing you see, sweetie, so
I just want you to concentrate real hard so you can remember!"
MATURE VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "You belong to that Orochi thing! Come to haunt the living, have you?
Saisyu never had any trouble dealing with you, and nor shall I. I'll
make sure you never set foot on earth again!"
Mature: "You're living in the past, old man! The world has passed you by! Get
with the times! If you still insist in hanging on to your glory days,
I'll take great pleasure in showing you that they're all behind you
now!"
MATURE VS. TERRY BOGARD
Mature: "Hello, Wolfy! Would you like me to show you a whole new world?"
Terry: "Ooh, the seductive blonde routine! Okay, I'll play along! What kind of
world would that be, sugar?"
Mature: "A world of pleasure beyond the threshold of pain! I'm sure you'll be
hooked!"
Terry: "Ah, that's a shame.... Thanks, but no thanks! I get creeped out just
seeing a syringe."
MATURE VS. VICE
Mature: "When I actually think about it, it's amazing how few times we've had
this opportunity."
Vice: "I know. But you want to settle it too, don't you? Who's the strongest
between us? Let's decide it once and for all!"
MATURE VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Yuri: "Huh? What's with the eyepatch? Are you sick? Did you get hurt?"
Mature: "It's nothing like that. You want to know? I'll take it off if you
really want to know."
Yuri: "Hmmm.... I'm not so sure if I want to know what's underneath now.... On
second thought, don't bother! I have a feeling I'm not going to like it!"
Mature: "Cowardly girl.... That's nothing compared to the horrors I'm going to
show you now!"
MATURE VS. TRUE SAIKI
Mature: "It's your destiny to die, so what are you still trying to do here?
You're wandering around like you have unfinished business! You've
violated your curfew, and now it's time for a spanking!"
Saiki: "No, it is not we who shall perish! It is you and your fellow Orochi
worms! You'll see soon enough that this is how the timeline is supposed
to go!"
MATURE VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "You're one of the tails of Orochi, aren't you? Why are you still here?"
Mature: "Why are YOU still here? You're already walking down the path towards
your own destruction! You can burn the rest of your time futilely
fighting your own death.... I'll be here singing a bedtime song for
you!"
Ash: "The fact that I'm here means that we shall not perish. I have obtained
dominion over time!"
MAXIMA VS. MAXIMA
Maxima1: "As far as I can tell, our specs are exactly alike."
Maxima2: "Yeah, this is quite a surprise. You never know what's gonna happen
next with a cyborg."
Maxima1: "Not everything behaves in complete accordance with its' specs,
right?"
Maxima2: "Precisely. We'll have to fight to see who has the highest capacity!"
MAXIMA VS. MR. KARATE
Maxima: "You share the body type and voiceprint of Takuma Sakazaki.... And yet
your combat ability doesn't match his recorded skill.... What could
this mean? Could a simple mask have such impossible effects!?"
Mr. Karate: "The problem with machines is that they can only measure so much.
I'll show you something that'll stir up your databanks!"
MAXIMA VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "What the...! He he he.... That's a nice body you've got there, pal!"
Maxima: "Whoa there, pal, what's that supposed to mean...?"
Raiden: "If I win, I'm gonna make you my tag team partner!"
Maxima: "Oh, that's what you meant.... Well, there's no way you're going to win,
so I suppose I can agree to that!"
MAXIMA VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "I hope you have car insurance. That way you won't be so worried when I
turn you into a wreck!"
Maxima: "I'm a heck of a lot more sturdy than you are, so don't you worry your
pretty little head over me."
Ralf: "Is that right? Well, I wasn't the least bit worried anyway!"
MAXIMA VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Robert: "Hey, Mr. Cyborg! I hope you filled your tank today! If you run out of
gas halfway through, I can't promise I'll be able to stop myself!"
Maxima: "I don't expect you to understand, but my heart runs on a semi-permanent
system, not gas. Rather than worrying about my energy reserves, you'd
better worry about how to fund your hospital bills."
MAXIMA VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "I don't care if you're a cyborg or a robot! I will break you down with my
fists!"
Maxima: "Hey, hey, there's no need for that! Think about what you're doing to
other people, okay?"
Ryo: "Don't worry! After the match I'll stick some bandages on you and slap some
new batteries in, and you'll be right as rain!" (*)
Maxima: "You don't have any idea how a cyborg works, do you...?"
* Author's note: Right...as rain? Ummmm...kay?
MAXIMA VS. SAIKI
Maxima: "So, your combat strength varies depending on your form, eh? That's like
one of those animes I keep hearing about."
Saiki: "There might be some changes, but they're nothing major. I'm more than
capable of turning you to scrap no matter which form I take."
Maxima: "I'm afraid I can't let that happen. I'm told if I get destroyed, it'll
release large quantities of toxic waste into the environment. What with
all the ecological problems this world's been having lately, I can't
afford to lose."
MAXIMA VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "I always welcome fighting strong opponents. I hope you're not all looks,
though."
Maxima: "I'll try not to fall over and crush you. You wouldn't be satisfied if
you lost by accident, would you?"
Shen: "Don't worry about that. I'll make sure you're still upright once I've
knocked you out!"
MAXIMA VS. SIE KENSOU
Maxima: "I see.... From my readings, you appear to have returned to your
original level now."
Kensou: "Wait a sec, Mr. Cyborg! I think you need some new visual sensors! I'm
way above my original level! My power level is at, like, 150% of what
it used to be now!"
Maxima: "Well, you've certainly turned the output of your mouth up to 11. Don't
know about your fighting ability, though."
MAXIMA VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Maxima: "I heard that once there was a Karateka who shattered a bull's horns
with one chop. Is that true?"
Takuma: "Want to try and see? There aren't any bulls in the area though. I shall
have to make do with your chest, if that's okay with you?"
Maxima: "Hey! That's not funny! If I took one of your chops straight to the
chest, I don't think that even I would get away unharmed!"
Takuma: "Then you shouldn't have tested me. Now let's go!"
MAXIMA VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "Hey, do you mind if I ask you some questions about parenting?"
Maxima: "What!? Why would you ask me about that!?"
Terry: "You know, you've got those two big kids that you're taking care of,
right?"
Maxima: "...Please don't joke about that. That's the last rumor I want people
believing."
MAXIMA VS. VICE
Vice: "You again.... It's so good to see you! I always enjoy dismantling you!"
Maxima: "What a gorgeous brunette.... It's a shame about the rotten
personality.... I tend to prefer humble women who stand by their man."
Vice: "Are your parts configured incorrectly? Why would my personality matter
when I'm going to end your life!?"
MAXIMA VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Maxima: "You don't have enough power to take me on, little lady. I would
withdraw if I were you."
Yuri: "There you go, saying stuff like that again! You're just scared of my
latent abilities, aren't you? Any difference in size and power can easily
be overcome by speed and timing!"
Maxima: "...Your best weapon is probably your undying optimism...."
MAXIMA VS. TRUE SAIKI
Maxima: "What's this? I sense a slight bend in time...."
Saiku: "Are you one of those cyborg thingies? You can even 'see' things like
that? Too bad for you though! You would've been able to live in peace if
you hadn't known about it!"
Maxima: "Oh, I'm not worried. I'm used to fights that don't quite go according
to data."
MAXIMA VS. DARK ASH
Maxima: "You've absorbed Ash's powers? It seems you've got more than double his
power, though.... This isn't looking good. You're gonna be a pain to
get rid of, I bet."
Ash: "Hey, who's getting rid of who here? You're the one that's 100% guaranteed
to die! Are you stupid?"
Maxima: "I'll admit the odds are against me, but I'm sure 100% is exaggerating
just a little...."
Ash: "Enough with the numbers! You should start thinking of a fitting farewell
poem!"
MR. KARATE VS. RAIDEN
Raiden: "Now that I think about it, I seem to recall Geese mentioning some
karate legend dude with a demon mask...."
Mr. Karate: "Do you still think I'm merely a legend? Even though I'm standing
right here in front of you?"
Raiden: "I don't care if you're a legend, or an illusion, or whatever! I just
don't like to lose!"
MR. KARATE VS. RALF JONES
Mr. Karate: "Leave this place at once.... Only your leader could stand a
chance against me."
Ralf: "Oh, don't be like that.... Besides, do you think I'm just gonna say 'yes
sir' and run away?"
Mr. Karate: "Very well, then. Maybe the man will finally get off his rear end
if he hears you've been beaten into a bloody pulp."
MR. KARATE VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Robert: "I thought you were up to your old tricks again, with that silly mask
of yours.... But it seems you're not messin' around this time. There's
such a powerful aura of menace surrounding you; it almost hurts to
breathe."
Mr. Karate: "This is what battle is all about.... You will find out soon
enough!"
MR. KARATE VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Mr. Karate: "Let me see if you have what it takes to inherit the title of the
Unbeatable Karateka...."
Ryo: "Dad's Dad, and I'm me. I'm not looking to inherit anything from
anyone.... But I'm not about to turn my back on a good challenge."
Mr. Karate: "That's the spirit! Use all your might to crush my Demon Fist,
Ryo!"
MR. KARATE VS. SAIKI
Saiki: "When those pitiful humans see their greatest efforts crushed before
their very eyes.... THAT is the moment! The exquisite expression of
absolute despair on your pathetic human faces...! I am eagerly looking
forward to seeing what kind of delicious face you make behind that
mask once I'm done with you.... He he he...."
Mr. Karate: "The feeling's mutual. I enjoy the moments when I get to destroy
demons like you with my fists!"
MR. KARATE VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "Oh, man, I'm getting pumped! It ain't often I get to fight someone as
good as you."
Mr. Karate: "Consider yourself unlucky.... You will soon come to regret
running into me here."
MR. KARATE VS. SIE KENSOU
Mr. Karate: "Master Chin's disciple.... Let us see what you have learned."
Kensou: "That spirit.... You're a demon, a true demon! It's time for an
exorcism!"
MR. KARATE VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "What is this!? Am I dreaming!? But this aura of bloodlust.... It's
piercing my very skin...."
Mr. Karate: "Indeed, this world is nothing but a transient dream.... So don't
let that hold you back."
Takuma: "Hmm.... I suppose it would be interesting to fight a dream image for a
change.... Very well, let's do this!"
MR. KARATE VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "Mr. Karate!? I never thought I'd run into the legend himself...."
Mr. Karate: "You carry the will and strength of Jeff Bogard.... Show me all that
you have in you!"
Terry: "OK! This'll make for a great story when I meet Jeff again!"
MR. KARATE VS. VICE
Vice: "You've been looking for strength for so long, and this is your answer?
Don't you desire more?"
Mr. Karate: "Oh, this is rich.... Orochi is trying to tempt me! All I seek is my
own strength! I don't care about borrowed power!"
MR. KARATE VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Yuri: "Dad!? What happened to you!? That mask.... Don't tell me you...."
Mr. Karate: "Yuri.... You still do not understand the harshness of the road you
have chosen. Learn from this fight, my daughter! It will decide
your destiny!"
MR. KARATE VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "Ha ha.... I sense a very agreeable lust for blood blowing in the wind.
Not bad...for a human. But therein lie your limits, I'm afraid. It is
the destiny of you vermin to be tied by time!"
Mr. Karate: "Enough talk.... Bring it on. I don't care if you're a god or a
demon, I'll destroy you either way!"
MR. KARATE VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "So your sole desire is to fight strong opponents? Well, whatever gets you
through life, I guess.... Allow me to grant your wish, then. I am the
strongest enemy you will ever come across in your life!"
Mr. Karate: "Hmph.... We'll see about that. This'll be to the death!"
RAIDEN VS. RAIDEN
Raiden1: "Any masked fighter has to assume they're gonna face an impostor at
some point."
Raiden2: "Yeah, anyone on the street with a similar body type and a mask can
confuse the public."
Raiden1: "Anyway, I'll be the one to win, because I'm the real one!"
Raiden2: "Great minds think alike! I was just about to say the exact same
thing!"
RAIDEN VS. RALF JONES
Ralf: "Hmmm.... You've got some guts calling yourself 'The Out-of-Control Tank'
around army people."
Raiden: "You think so? I think 'tank' is actually too weak sounding, to be
honest."
Ralf: "Well, in any case it means victory for me! My fists can crush even the
mightiest of tanks, whether in control, or out of control!"
RAIDEN VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Raiden: "Hmph. Another karate user, huh? I've already crushed plenty of wimps
like you!"
Robert: "Those were all amateurs, I'm sure. There's lots of people into karate
nowadays."
Raiden: "So you're saying you're one of the best? Could you show me what
exactly the difference is between you and the amateurs? I'm having a
hard time telling."
Robert: "Sure, why not? You're going to have to spend some time in a hospital
bed to fully comprehend what I show you, though."
RAIDEN VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "Wow, you're big! As a sumo wrestler, the odds are in your favor!"
Raiden: "Don't be an idiot! I'm a pro wrestler, not a sumo wrestler!"
Ryo: "What's the difference? Either way, I'm still fighting someone twice my
weight and with ten times my body fat.... I'm ready for you!"
Raiden: "We'll see about that! I'll mash you to a bloody pulp!"
RAIDEN VS. SAIKI
Saiki: "It's customary to use lambs and goats for sacrifices.... But I guess
I'll have to make do with a pig this time."
Raiden: "You're good at provoking people, I'll give you that. But you also just
shortened your own life expectancy. I'll crush every single bone in
your body and then iron the remains with my butt!"
Saiki: "Oink all you want! It's only natural for a sacrifice to squeal on the
altar!"
RAIDEN VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "Another one of you insane, delusional types! Make sure you don't sweat
any of your crazy onto me, will ya!"
Raiden: "You got a big mouth on ya, kid. If there's one thing I hate it's
loudmouths and koalas!"
Shen: "Are you serious!? That's two things, you idiot! Looks like all that fat
is replacing your brain cells. Lemme pound some of it outta your head!"
RAIDEN VS. SIE KENSOU
Kensou: "Wow! It's the real Raiden! I've seen you on cable TV so many times!"
Raiden: "Gah ha ha! Good, good! So you're one of my fans too, huh?"
Kensou: "Oh, no. Not at all. I was a fan of the Red Dragon! We're both
dragons, so I was cheering for him!"
Raiden: "Oh, you mean that shady Asian wrestler who kept getting stomped by
yours truly?"
Kensou: "It's not like I'm trying to avenge him or anything, but I AM going to
beat you, Mister Raiden!"
RAIDEN VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "Hmph...you're a bit overweight. You probably find that you're too
heavy to move when the critical moments arrive."
Raiden: "Mind your own business! See for yourself if I can move or not!"
Takuma: "I plan on it."
RAIDEN VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "Hey! What's up with the mask? You back in the bad guy business again,
Bear?"
Raiden: "Watch your mouth! My name is Raiden! Raiden, the strongest man in the
world!"
Terry: "Okay, then! Well, give me a fight that's worthy of your flashy mask!
Let's go!"
RAIDEN VS. VICE
Vice: "He he he.... Looks like breaking all your bones is going to take some
time, big fella! But even tedious work like that can be fun, too. I
can't wait to hear the sound of snapping bones!"
Raiden: "Beautiful, glamorous, and a sadist to boot! You'd be the perfect
female heel! Well, actually, there's one last ingredient...strength.
Let's see if you've got it, missy!"
RAIDEN VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Yuri: "Hey, Mister Raiden, I heard you hate koalas, is that true?"
Raiden: "Yeah, it is. I mean, you can never tell what the buggers are thinking,
can you?"
Yuri: "Uh.... But can't you say the same thing for regular bears as well?"
Raiden: "Nah, bears are okay! Bears are awesome! Not koalas though. Definitely
not koalas!"
Yuri: "You don't have to get so excited about it.... For some reason, this makes
me think you're not such a bad person deep down, though."
RAIDEN VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "Wow.... I never in a million years thought that pigs would be able to
speak!"
Raiden: "What!? Why you filthy.... I'll make you eat those words!"
Saiki: "Oh, wait, you're not a pig at all! You're just really, really fat!
Isn't that right, Fatty?"
Raiden: "I'll grind your bones to dust with my bare hands, and then I'll squash
your face by sitting on it!"
RAIDEN VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "Hey, piggy! Oink for me! Humans deserve to perish, but pigs get to escape
my wrath. Oink like a good piggy, and maybe I'll spare your life! Come on!
Oink, damn you! OINK!"
Raiden: "Who do you think you are, you little squirt? I am Raiden! I ain't no
pig!"
Ash: "Oh, but you are! When faced with the power to control time, all humans are
but as pigs before me!"
RALF JONES VS. RALF JONES
Ralf1: "What the.... Are you trying to look like me or something? Are you some
kind of enemy infiltrator!?"
Ralf2: "The only impostor here is YOU! I'm positive that I've never had an
expression that stupid-looking on my face in my entire life!"
Ralf1: "You realize of course, that this means war. I'll tear that fake skin off
your body!"
RALF JONES VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Ralf: "Don't think I'll give you a special treatment just because you're a VIP
in the Italian business world. There are no VIPs here!"
Robert: "I appreciate your courteous warning, but you need to shut up. I don't
fight with the Italian businessman style! I'm a martial artist and I'm
here to fight! I'd worry more about my own safety if I were you."
Ralf: "Ha ha! You've got guts, kid! I don't know about your strength, but you've
definitely got some strong spirit!"
RALF JONES VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "I'm used to fighting with you army types, but you look like you're going
to push me to the limit."
Ralf: "Of course! Who exactly are you comparing me to? I'm still on active duty
-- always on the front line! Don't compare me to a reservist!"
Ryo: "I welcome any and all strong opponents. It will be nice to fight a war
veteran for once!"
Ralf: "I'm not really one to talk, but...you're an odd one, aren't you? He he
he...."
RALF JONES VS. SAIKI
Ralf: "Right. I'm gonna have to ask you to come with me. There's a lot that you
and I need to talk about."
Saiki: "Hah! What are you, stupid!? You think I'm going to come along, just
like that!?"
Ralf: "Not really, no. I'm just bein' formal here. I wasn't really expecting
you to come along nicely. Besides, it's more fun to drag the bad guys in
kickin' and screamin'! It's so much more my style!"
RALF JONES VS. SHEN WOO
Ralf: "I don't know how famous you were in Shanghai, but you look like an
ordinary amateur to me."
Shen: "What are you talking about!? When it comes to brawling, there's no
difference between pros and amateurs!"
Ralf: "Believe me, I brawl like a pro, buddy! I'll show you the difference
between pros and pretenders!"
RALF JONES VS. SIE KENSOU
Ralf: "You're looking awfully serious, Kung Fu Boy! There's nothing to be
nervous about, is there? After all, this is just a fighting tournament,
it's not like you'll die when you lose."
Kensou: "Who's nervous!? I'm not shaking, I'm just flexing! Get ready, mister!
I'll show you my improved powers!"
RALF JONES VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "At first glance you look like a coarse and careless man, but beyond
that lies a seasoned veteran. I'd best prepare for a knockdown
drag-out battle. He he he.... You're sure gonna be a pain...."
Ralf: "You say that, but you're smiling. Just admit that you're having fun, old
man! It's guys like YOU that are a pain to deal with. But it's not like
I'm the easiest person on the planet to deal with. My fists have started
itching, so let's get scratching!"
RALF JONES VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "Hey! With you as my opponent it looks like I'll finally get to enjoy a
hot fight!"
Ralf: "Well, I wouldn't want to disappoint you, buddy!"
Terry: "OK! Let's see if those fists of yours burn hotter than napalm! Let's
fight!"
RALF JONES VS. VICE
Ralf: "You people again.... Everyone loves a comeback, but nobody loves someone
who doesn't know when they've worn out their welcome!"
Vice: "Speak for yourself! You're always snooping around, sticking your nose
where it doesn't belong!"
Ralf: "That's my job! So.... Let's begin the interrogation!"
RALF JONES VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Ralf: "Geez, if only our girlie could learn to be as charming as you are."
Yuri: "Tee hee. You sound like a dad whose daughter just came of age."
Ralf: "Oh, please! I'm still single. I don't need a big brat like her running
around."
RALF JONES VS. TRUE SAIKI
Ralf: "There's a lot of stuff I have to say to you, but first off I'm gonna have
you give back what you stole from us!"
Saiki: "What? I've never even seen you before! Did you lose your marbles? Is
that what you want back? Because I don't have those."
Ralf: "You took our commander's eye patch. You're the higher-up, so you gotta
take responsibility for your underling's screw-ups!"
RALF JONES VS. DARK ASH
Ralf: "Have you been mixing so many colors of fire that you just ended up with
black, like kids' watercolors? Black suits you better than anything
colorful though, that's for sure!"
Ash: "Yes. Black is suitable. A suitable color for burning trash like you! Black
fire will turn everything into white ashes! You, everyone else, and the
whole human history!"
ROBERT GARCIA VS. ROBERT GARCIA
Robert1: "Are you after my money or something? You're a really clever identity
thief. You sure look a lot like me...."
Robert2: "That's what I was gonna say! I'm definitely better looking though!"
Robert1: "As if! You're obviously the fake! How could you even hope to compare
to the amount of hunk that I am?"
Robert2: "I don't have to hope. I know I outshine you. They model action heroes
after me, you know?"
Robert1: "Well, let me show you some action, then! We'll settle it here! I'll
show you that an impostor can't hope to defeat me!"
ROBERT GARCIA VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "How many fights have we fought now? It's gotta be several hundred by
now...."
Robert: "I guess so. I don't remember every single one of them, though. But I
do know that I won most of them."
Ryo: "Ha ha, like heck you did! I'm the leader in this matchup, Robert!"
Robert: "Really? Well, it doesn't matter anyway. I don't care about my past
records. I don't care about the past. I'm only interested in the
present, Ryo! Who wants to live in the past!?"
Ryo: "You're right. It's not about who used to be stronger; it's about who's
stronger now!"
ROBERT GARCIA VS. SAIKI
Saiki: "You're obviously some spoiled rich kid who started dabbling in karate
because he was bored. How could you possibly defeat me?"
Robert: "You think I'm doing this because I'm bored!? You couldn't be more
wrong! I've got a really strict teacher and a serious rival! Don't
think I'm taking Kyokugen style lightly! And if you think Kyokugen is
something to laugh at, you'll soon find out just how wrong you are,
the hard way!"
Saiki: "You could spend your whole life practicing karate and it would never be
enough! Let me provide you with proof!"
ROBERT GARCIA VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "I don't care if you're a Tiger or a Dragon or whatever, but I think you
oughta talk a lot less!"
Robert: "Are you trying to sound scary or somethinh? Sorry, but it isn't
working. I ate punks like you for breakfast back in South Town."
Shen: "Yeah? And I ate arrogant slimeballs like you for a snack when I was still
in Shanghai!"
ROBERT GARCIA VS. SIE KENSOU
Kensou: "Hey, long time no see, Robert! Have you been working out?"
Robert: "How nice of you to notice, little buddy! Don't think that'll make me
ease up on you, though!"
Kensou: "That's fine, I didn't really mean it, anyway!"
ROBERT GARCIA VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "It is good for you to be helping your father, but I hope you haven't
been neglecting your training!"
Robert: "Don't worry, I haven't! If you doubt me, I can show you right now how
well trained I am."
Takuma: "Very well. I shall enjoy testing you to see how much you've grown up!"
Robert: "Just don't soil yourself in the process, okay? Let's go!"
ROBERT GARCIA VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "Yo, Casanova! Long time no see, man!"
Robert: "Well if it isn't Tumultuous Terry Bogard, the Freelancing Fisticuffsman
from South Town!"
Terry: "Hm.... That doesn't quite have the right ring, man. Can't you just call
me the Wandering Warrior or the World Warrior or something?" (*)
Robert: "Sorry, man. You can't pick your own nickname.... Ha! I'm just kidding,
man! Now, let's get this party started!"
* Author's note: A reference to Ryu from the Street Fighter series?
ROBERT GARCIA VS. VICE
Vice: "A Tiger!? Sure you mean a kitty, right? At least you look like you have
nice fur."
Robert: "Well, it's all a matter of grooming regularly, and.... Wait, who are
you calling a kitty here!? When it comes to tearing snakes apart, I
have the fangs of a tiger, little miss brunette!"
Vice: "Is that right? Then come and get me! I'll devour you whole!"
ROBERT GARCIA VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Robert: "Hey, Yuri! I finally got a hold of you! You free for a date today or
tomorrow?"
Yuri: "Sorry, Robert, but I already have plans. I have a victory party planned
tonight. And tomorrow I'll probably have to go to the hospital. To visit
you of course."
Robert: "Ha ha! You're hilarious! So you really think you're going to win, huh?
You sure are confident! But I won't let you win just because I want you
to be healthy for our date! I wouldn't be a worthy boyfriend if I let
you trash the name of Mightiest Tiger!"
ROBERT GARCIA VS. TRUE SAIKI
Robert: "And you must be the shadowy bad guy for this installment of KOF! You
look strangely familiar though.... Well, it doesn't matter who you are
anyway. Your only purpose here is to draw attention to me!"
Saiki: "The only thing people will be paying attention to is how weak you are
compared to me! Your problem is that you fail to realize exactly how
pathetic of an insect you are! Die. Die now. You don't deserve another
breath."
ROBERT GARCIA VS. DARK ASH
Robert: "You seem a bit different than usual. You look kind of like Ash, but...
darker...."
Ash: "Your eyes are wide open, yet you fail to see the truth that is right in
front of you. You humans are such a foolish species."
Robert: "So, you're Ash, right? I mean, but that face...."
Ash: "Even the Mightiest Tiger is still only human.... Unable to transcend
humanity's weaknesses after all.... Your timeline ends here, and I will
personally end it!"
RYO SAKAZAKI VS. RYO SAKAZAKI
Ryo1: "This is gonna sound odd coming from me, but.... Is there really anything
to gain from trying to look like me?"
Ryo2: "Good question. I'm wondering the same thing. I'm not letting anyone else
be called 'The Invincible Dragon', though!"
Ryo1: "Good call.... I agree! That's one of the few things I can actually pride
myself on!"
RYO SAKAZAKI VS. SAIKI
Saiki: "So you say you'll never step down, no matter what you're facing? That's
not courage, it's just plain stupid!"
Ryo: "I'm a simple man, I'll admit. But it's helped me reach incredible heights
so far! I'll never give up! I'm gonna aim for the top, and nothing's
gonna get in my way!"
Saiki: "And that's why you're going to end up stranded half-way to the top. Ha
ha ha.... Nothing but destruction awaits those who fail to learn their
place!"
RYO SAKAZAKI VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "Kyokugen style karate.... The style is known even in Shanghai.... Only
by name, though."
Ryo: "Well, how about I open a Shanghai branch to teach the Kyokugen style
there? You could run the school, after you get some lessons. How about
it?"
Shen: "Are you kidding me!? I'm not gonna work for your freaking school!"
Ryo: "Of course I'm kidding about you running a school in my name. But I AM
going to give you some lessons now!"
RYO SAKAZAKI VS. SIE KENSOU
Ryo: "Your eyes look different from before. You look like you've been to Hell
and back, kid...."
Kensou: "That's right! Don't think I'm the same guy I used to be! I'll give you
a taste of my new powers!"
Ryo: "Some things should be discarded, and some should be kept. Knowing which
is which is the most difficult thing. But you have a great teacher and
some skilled companions. I look forward to seeing what will become of
you!"
Kensou: "Thanks.... Hey, wait a minute! What's with that tone!? You sound like
you're an old wise man looking after his students! Like you're on a
different level than I am!? I just told you that you're facing the new
me!"
Ryo: "Even so, it will be a long time before I lie at the feet of someone as
young as you."
RYO SAKAZAKI VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "Ryo.... I haven't told you everything I know about Kyokugen yet!"
Ryo: "I'm not going to go back to studying now. If you want to teach me, you'll
have to do it through fighting now, Dad!"
Takuma: "That's my boy! Defeat me, and you will learn the true essence of our
fighting style!"
RYO SAKAZAKI VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "Now that I think about it, we have quite a long and unusual history
together, don't we? How many years has it been?"
Ryo: "I've lost count. You're right, it's been a long time. Not that we ever do
anything besides fight, though...."
Terry: "That just means we were made from the same mold! So, shall we begin,
Ryo Sakazaki?"
Ryo: "Anytime you're ready, Terry Bogard!"
RYO SAKAZAKI VS. VICE
Vice: "Don't you see? No matter how many years you train, there's a concrete
limit to what you humans can do!"
Ryo: "I don't buy that for a second. I believe in infinite possibilities!"
Vice: "I'll show you just how wrong you are! Humans are too weak and
insignificant to ever get anywhere!"
Ryo: "And even if you do, I will keep trying to reach the highest point
possible! No matter what!"
RYO SAKAZAKI VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Ryo: "Yuri, I still don't agree with you learning karate."
Yuri: "Isn't a bit too late for that now? You're always worrying way too much!
This should be a good opportunity to show you that I hold my own as a
fighter!"
Ryo: "All right, attack me with full strength! I won't hold anything back
either!"
RYO SAKAZAKI VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "You think your strength gives you invincibility? When did humans stop
evolving like this?"
Ryo: "Who can say? But the moment you underestimate your opponent is the exact
moment that your strength reaches its' limits!"
Saiki: "You humans have a silly answer for everything, don't you? It's such a
chore to listen to!"
RYO SAKAZAKI VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "Kyokugen style karate? Kyokugen means extreme, and that implies limits and
restrictions. What a perfect name for such a worthless piece of trash.
It's good to know you have an accurate image of yourself."
Ryo: "You do not seem to understand. Kyokugen is about exceeding your limits!
It's about reaching new heights beyond your former limits, not your
twisted definition!"
Ash: "Well, allow me to show you the limits of being humans. Limits that you
cannot possibly hope to ever exceed!"
SAIKI VS. SAIKI
Saiki1: "I suppose the human saying 'light is always followed by darkness'
refers to this sort of situation...? To think that none other than a
copy of myself would appear at this moment to get in my way!"
Saiki2: "Just who are you calling a copy, you faker? You must be delusional!
The real me has absolute power! That means whichever of us loses has
to be the fake, don't you agree?"
SAIKI VS. SHEN WOO
Shen: "Hey, Fake Ash! Are you sure you want to be fighting in that outfit?
Those white clothes will be black with your foul blood in a couple of
moments!"
Saiki: "Don't worry about me, you piece of trash. You'll be in a pile of ashes
in the blink of an eye!"
SAIKI VS. SIE KENSOU
Saiki: "You.... You seem to have some very interesting powers. Care to show
some of them to me?"
Kensou: "You wanna see my powers? No problem! I'll show you all I've got right
away! You'll regret asking for it though!"
SAIKI VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Saiki: "Oh? So, you are the leader of the Kyokugen School? And what's so
special about you, if I may ask? Well, it doesn't matter anyway. You
don't stand a chance against me. Besides, humans are destined to
expire!"
Takuma: "You're so conceited it's almost funny! I shall strike you down for
your arrogance!"
SAIKI VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "Look, I don't care who or what you are! All that matters is that you're
in my way, so I'm gonna kick you into orbit!"
Saiki: "You do not seem to understand who is standing in whose way. Soon you
will find that this is the unluckiest day in your life."
Terry: "Unlucky? The way I see it, I'm grateful to get to fight someone strong
for a change! Come on, let's do this!"
SAIKI VS. VICE
Vice: "You are destined to expire. Why do you continue to struggle?"
Saiki: "God, you're dense, aren't you? I have the power to change history! I
shall rewind time and rewrite it to my choosing! We will prosper, and
the Orochi will be destined to die!"
Vice: "Now who's being dense? Don't you understand that I'm here to prevent you
from doing exactly that?"
SAIKI VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Saiki: "Another one of those noisy little brats. Can't you just wait quietly for
death to claim you!?"
Yuri: "Nope, ain't gonna happen! My liveliness is my trademark!"
Saiki: "That's a pretty damn annoying thing to have as a trademark. All right,
looks like I'm going to have to put an end to this nonsense myself!"
SAIKI VS. TRUE SAIKI
T. Saiki: "Well, what do we have here!? There must've been some kind of twist
in time...."
Saiki: "So it would seem.... What shall we do about it? How do we untangle this
thread?"
T. Saiki: "Well, it's obvious, isn't it? The stronger of us will survive, as the
providence of nature dictates!"
SAIKI VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "Well, this is an interesting situation, isn't it? How about it? Why don't
we settle things here?"
Saiki: "Is this some sort of joke!? You should try to be a bit more like the
real me, since I'm the best at pretty much everything."
Ash: "You think you're the real one here? We'll see just who's the 'real thing'
and who's the fake around here!"
Saiki: "Overwhelming power is what's needed to lead the remainder of our clan to
realize its' longstanding goal. That much is for sure!"
SHEN WOO VS. SHEN WOO
Shen1: "Wow, it seems I'm finally famous! I never dreamed I'd have fans this
devoted!"
Shen2: "You need a reality check, buddy. You've got some guts to pretend to be
me! I'm gonna beat you into a bloody pulp so nobody will ever confuse
us again!"
Shen1: "What!? I was gonna say that! Don't think you can steal my looks AND my
lines!"
SHEN WOO VS. SIE KENSOU
Shen: "Okay, kid, I'm gonna pull my first punch. As soon as I connect, fly back
and pretend like you're asleep when you hit the ground."
Kensou: "U-Uh.... Just out of curiosity, what would happen if I didn't?"
Shen: "Well, I think what would probably happen is that you'd end up
permanently asleep."
Kensou: "Seriously, is that it? That's the best you've got!? My teacher is way
scarier than you when he gets upset. I'm not afraid of you at all."
SHEN WOO VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Shen: "You don't look like you got that scar for decoration.... I think I'm
going to enjoy this fight!"
Takuma: "That makes two of us. You look like you've been through quite a lot
too."
Shen: "That's true, but why waste time talking about it when I can show you!
Actions speak louder than words!"
Takuma: "Young people these days are always in such a hurry. Very well! I shall
show you the power of Kyokugen!"
SHEN WOO VS. TERRY BOGARD
Shen: "Now...show me this 'legend' of yours!"
Terry: "Eh, I don't know if I'd call it a legend, but I won't deny someone who's
looking for a fight!"
Shen: "That's what I wanna hear! Let's see how much truth there is to this
living legend!"
SHEN WOO VS. VICE
Shen: "Don't you look feisty. I'm getting chills just looking at you."
Vice: "And soon you'll be getting a chill from bleeding out and sitting in a
pool of your own cold blood!"
Shen: "You know the way to my heart! Let's get started!"

SHEN WOO VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Shen: "Are you serious? You can't possibly think you're actually going to put up
a fight here, can you?"
Yuri: "Huh? Are you saying that just because I'm a girl? You better watch out!
If you're not careful, you're going to get knocked into next week!"
Shen: "You're hilarious. If that's what you want, sure, I'll let you taste my
full strength!"
SHEN WOO VS. TRUE SAIKI
Shen: "Wow, they sure ain't getting any prettier! Who the heck are you? Are you
related to Ash?"
Saiki: "Why do you care? You can't do anything to stop my plans, so why do you
care who I'm related to?"
Shen: "You've got your plans, and I've got mine. I plan to pound you into
oblivion, and then worry about the rest later."
Saiki: "Ah ha ha ha! Then I'll wait to execute my plans until after I've had the
pleasure of breaking you in half!"
SHEN WOO VS. DARK ASH
Shen: "Are you Ash Crimson? Or are you just some guy who looks like him that I
don't know?"
Ash: "Don't bore me with your inane banter. It will not save you from your
impending doom."
Shen: "Yeah, you're right. Talking won't change anything.... I'm still gonna
punch your stupid face in, but I thought you'd want to enjoy speaking for
the last time."
SIE KENSOU VS. SIE KENSOU
Kensou1: "Wha.... H-Hey! You're a fraud! What do you think you're doing, copying
me like some silly monkey!?"
Kensou2: "You're the rip-off! You did a good job with your appearance though,
I'll give you that! Oh, I get it now! You're trying to replace me so
you can steal Athena from me!"
Kensou1: "Oh, shut up! That's what I was going to say! I'm not letting anyone, I
mean ANYONE, get near my Athena!"
SIE KENSOU VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "You're one of Master Chin's young disciples. I see you have grown up a
bit, that's good, good...."
Kensou: "A bit!? What do you mean 'a bit'!? That's a huge understatement, old
man! I'm sure you'll think better of me once you try to fight me.
You'll see just how much I've grown!"
Takuma: "I look forward to it! Although, if your growth as a fighter is the same
as your growth in maturity, I have a feeling I'm going to be
disappointed."
SIE KENSOU VS. TERRY BOGARD
Kensou: "Genius Psycho Soldier Sie Kensou! Ready to fight with an all-new
costume!"
Terry: "Please tell me you changed more than just your looks and your entrance
speech...."
Kensou: "Stop interrupting my intro with your lame putdowns! I've got moves
that you've never even seen before! I'm gonna mess you up! You'll be
begging for mercy!"
SIE KENSOU VS. VICE
Vice: "Hmmm? It seems you've touched upon the powers inside of you...."
Kensou: "H-How do you know!? What do you know about my powers!?"
Vice: "Oh, nothing. Even if I did, why would I ever tell you?"
Kensou: "Don't try and fool me! You don't know anything about me at all!"
SIE KENSOU VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Yuri: "Sorry that I'm gonna have to make you look like a weakling in front of
Athena, Kensou!"
Kensou: "We haven't even started! I'll show Athena that I'm strong by taking you
down! Unfortunately for you, I'm not the Kensou you've faced before!
Get ready!"
SIE KENSOU VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "Ah, now I understand.... That Hizoku guy, Ron, was it? He told me about
some little kid I needed to look out for."
Kensou: "W-What? Are you talking about me? Does this have anything to do with my
power?"
Saiki: "Don't worry about it, boy. You're going to die now anyway!"
SIE KENSOU VS. DARK ASH
Kensou: "You! What do you know about the power Bao and I have? Spill it!"
Ash: "Who cares about that? The other guy and I failed to obtain it anyway.
Instead I found this.... The power to turn your timeline into ashes!"
TAKUMA SAKAZAKI VS. TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
Takuma1: "You have quite a lot of guts to try and claim the name Takuma
Sakazaki. But you seem to have done a remarkable job of imitating my
style, and that's quite interesting indeed."
Takuma2: "I should be the one saying that! That's some fancy talk coming from a
discount store knock-off! Let's see if those fake fists of yours have
any effect on the real thing!"
TAKUMA SAKAZAKI VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry: "Huh? What happened to your mask, Mr....uh...Tengu?"
Takuma: "It's not a tengu! It's Mr. Karate! KAH-RAH-TAY K-A-R-A-T-E! KARATE!"
Terry: "Whoa. I was just joking, but if you're going to take it that seriously,
that must mean you really ARE Mr. Karate...."
Takuma: "Enough madness! I'm not Mr. Karate! If you don't shut up now, I'll let
my fists do the talking!"
TAKUMA SAKAZAKI VS. VICE
Takuma: "You're that sadistic slattern from the Orochi Clan.... I've heard all
about you from Saisyu!"
Vice: "You dare mention that geezer's name in my presence!? Do you have a death
wish or something? Just looking at stubborn old fools like you makes my
blood boil!"
TAKUMA SAKAZAKI VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Takuma: "Listen, Yuri! I won't tell you to use karate for anything other than
self-defense. But at least promise me you'll take martial arts
seriously! Your karate still lacks the proper stance and attitude!"
Yuri: "You and Ryo are so stubborn! Why can't you ever look at things on a
case-by-case basis!? Being all serious is something that suits you, Dad,
but I'm much better off doing stuff my way. And what's wrong with that?
If you get 100 karateka together, they'd all train in 100 different
ways."
Takuma: "There you go again, acting like you know everything! I guess it's time
for me to start training you all over again from scratch!"
TAKUMA SAKAZAKI VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "You poor fool! Don't you understand that humans will never be more than
mere humans?"
Takuma: "We will never become gods, certainly. But we might turn into demons!
Shall we try and see what my Demon Fists can do to someone who isn't
human?"
Saiki: "Go right ahead! Even if you're only human, this should still prove fun!"
TAKUMA SAKAZAKI VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "How much time have you spent devoting yourself to karate? Five, ten years?
It's more than that isn't it? And now every minute you've spent half your
life upon is going to be reduced to nothingness! Doesn't that make you
feel distraught? Doesn't it just make you want to die?"
Takuma: "What are you yammering on about!? The power of Kyokugen is right here,
in my fists! Kyokugen will not die out as long as it exists in my
hands!"
Ash: "You're a fool! When your timeline ceases to exist, your fists will not
exist either!"
TERRY BOGARD VS. TERRY BOGARD
Terry1: "You know what? I've been doing this so long even seeing a copy of
myself doesn't surprise me anymore."
Terry2: "That's right! It feels like meeting an old friend, right? How've you
been, old buddy?"
Terry1: "I'll answer that question...with my fists! If you really are a copy of
me, that's the only language you'd understand anyway."
Terry2: "You got that right! Let's get it on!"
TERRY BOGARD VS. VICE
Vice: "You're the Hungry Wolf? He he he.... How scary!"
Terry: "Wolves are pretty scary, yeah. But they're not half as scary as you
are."
Vice: "Well then, Wolfie, why don't you run off with your tail between your
legs? I wouldn't mind hearing you howl all the way home!"
Terry: "Nah, I'm used to scary women. I know how they fight. OK, let's go!"
TERRY BOGARD VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Terry: "I guess I'm kinda the same as your brother.... Although, I've been
through even more pain than he has. Do you get what I'm trying to tell
you, Miss Sakazaki?"
Yuri: "I totally understand. Why do you think I'm doing this? I want to become
stronger than my brother!"
Terry: "OK! Then I won't insult you by going easy on ya! I'm comin' atcha with
full strength!"
TERRY BOGARD VS. TRUE SAIKI
Saiki: "'The Legendary Wolf'!? Utterly ridiculous! You've been fighting for less
than 20 years! What kind of paltry legend is that!?"
Terry: "Yeah, maybe my personal history is a bit short, but I inherited these
fists from my father! So just look at it as his legend, and I'm
continuing his legend, OK?"
Saiki: "You think that one mere generation of your puny family makes any
difference? Anything man has ever created shall become meaningless when
it's consumed by the ravages of time!"
TERRY BOGARD VS. DARK ASH
Ash: "You have the look of someone who has mistaken courage for stupidity? Think
about it. What could you possibly gain by opposing me?"
Terry: "I dunno.... I haven't thought about it too much. I'm just a regular guy,
I don't know how far I'm gonna get with this. But even a regular guy
like me knows that as long as I can fight, I can't just let you have
your way!"
Ash: "So you're both stupid AND reckless! You've just signed your own death
certificate!"
VICE VS. VICE
Vice1: "!? What's this!? Is this another one of Kagura's tricks?"
Vice2: "Who cares? Only one of us is the real thing."
Vice1: "You got that right! Let's just end this and figure out who's who!"
VICE VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Yuri: "Ta daaah! Here's Yuri! The beloved Kyokugen Beauty has arrived on the
scene!"
Vice: "Ugh.... This is no place for kids. Start acting like a grown-up already,
brat!"
Yuri: "Oooh, scary! But it's going to take more than that to frighten me off!"
Vice: "Your voice is like nails on a chalkboard! It's making my skin crawl!
Forget about waiting for the next full moon, I'm sending you to the grave
right now!"
VICE VS. TRUE SAIKI
Vice: "Not that it matters much, but you sure are a lowly man, you know? Lowest
of the low. You think you can run an entire clan with just your
charimsa?"
Saiki: "What the hell are you talking about? It's not charisma, it's about
having absolute strength! Maybe you should become part of that
strength.... You and Orochi will dance like my puppets!"
VICE VS. DARK ASH
Vice: "Here to take advantage of the situation, huh? Why don't you go back to
where you came from?"
Ash: "Sorry, but soon time will be changed forever and it's not our clan who
will disappear, but your Orochi Clan!"
Vice: "Psh.... You're even dumber than you look, and I didn't think that was
possible! What do you think I'm about to stop you from doing, idiot!?"
YURI SAKAZAKI VS. YURI SAKAZAKI
Yuri1: "Oh, I see! First you steal my looks, and now you're here to copy my
moves as well, huh?"
Yuri2: "I don't think the original needs to learn anything from a copy, though."
Yuri1: "I hope for your sake your legs run as fast as your mouth."
Yuri2: "Why don't you try and find out? Not that you stand a chance though!"
YURI SAKAZAKI VS. TRUE SAIKI
Yuri: "You look like trouble. Are you friends with that Magaki guy?"
Saiki: "I don't need to explain anything to you. You wouldn't understand
anyway."
Yuri: "Hey, that's mean! You're making fun of me!"
Saiki: "Oh, it's not just you. All you humans are petty little insects!"
YURI SAKAZAKI VS. DARK ASH
Yuri: "Huh? Ash.... Is that you? No? Who are you?"
Ash: "*sigh* ...It's such a pain to have a famous face. Everyone just keeps
bothering you! I guess that means I should finish my job and return to my
rightful place."

LIST OF CHARACTERS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ANDY BOGARD
vs. Andy: "You can't become strong by copying me. Remember, there are no
shortcuts. None."
vs. Ash: "Skill's important, but you can't neglect experience either. I won't
lose to one who takes battle lightly."
vs. Athena: "Sometimes you just need to stand still. It will allow you to get a
better start."
vs. Benimaru: "How does that work? I always have trouble dealing with your
electricity."
vs. Billy: "Go back to South Town and tell Geese that I will be coming to defeat
him soon!"
vs. Chin: "Thanks for your teachings, Master Chin! You have made me sharper than
ever!"
vs. Clark: "We're not pawns on a board: we're fighters. You think everything
will go as simulated?"
vs. Daimon: "Such a big body, and yet not a single wasted movement. Very
impressive."
vs. Duo Lon: "You can't win if your mind is somewhere else. If this was your
usual battlefield, you'd be dead."
vs. Elisabeth: "Blanc style, was it? Quite unusual.... I had a tough time there.
I wish to fight you again!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "I'm sorry, but I'm used to Muay Thai fighters by now. You pose no
threat."
vs. Iori: "Fists sharpened by madness.... But you are still no match for my
Shiranui arts!"
vs. EX Iori: "Why should the Shiranui clan fear your flames!? It's nothing we
haven't seen before."
vs. Joe: "It seems I've weathered your storms. You're still as loud as ever,
though."
vs. K': "You need a strong conviction to win. You lack the necessary
confidence!"
vs. Kensou: "Is that all you can do? You wouldn't have gone very far with that
anyway."
vs. Kim: "Still as fearsome as ever, Kim. We should fight again some time!"
vs. King: "Your kicks are quite impressive, but they're very easy to read."
vs. Kula: "Your power is undeniable. But you'll need more than power to win!"
vs. Kyo: "To use your own words: 'You're not enough to get me to burn'."
vs. EX Kyo: "I felt some slight overconfidence in your punches just now. Never
assume your victory is a given."
vs. Leona: "You have proven your strength by making it this far. But you need
more to go on."
vs. Mai: "KOF is not a game, Mai. Just stay on the sidelines and cheer me on
from there."
vs. Mature: "You seem to be confident in your speed. But speed alone will not
allow you to defeat me!"
vs. Maxima: "Did you even see me move? I guess not. Your flabbergasted
expression suggests as much."
vs. Mr. Karate: "This weight and sharpness.... I see why you are a living
legend in that town. Thanks for the lesson!"
vs. Raiden: "You can't keep up with my speed with your body. We knew that
before the fight began."
vs. Ralf: "I was nearly overwhelmed by your toughness and onslaught of
attacks."
vs. Robert: "I noticed you briefly hesitated. That's all I needed to win."
vs. Ryo: "Such powerful blows! If I had gone toe-to-toe, I would have been
the one on the ground!"
vs. Saiki: "Overconfidence based on amazing power.... That's why you lost!
Your devotion to power was your downfall!"
vs. Shen: "Level-headed, unwavering and confident. That's what you need to be
to win."
vs. Takuma: "You have taught me how to make use of my spirit. I thank you,
Master Sakazaki!"
vs. Terry: "I may have won today, but our fight is still not over, my
brother!"
vs. Vice: "Your power and fighting spirit are formidable. You're too slow,
though."
vs. Yuri: "Your strikes are too weak. You must hone your speed and timing to
compensate."
vs. True Saiki: "Yes, you're strong.... But you were careless in the end.
That was my opening!"
vs. Dark Ash: "Shiranui style has been handling fire for ages. It can control
any flame, even yours!"
ASH CRIMSON
vs. Andy: "Were you underestimating me? Or was that it? Either way, you sure
suck."
vs. Ash: "What do you think this is all about? Could this be Miss Kagura's
doing?"
vs. Athena: "Don't think you can read people's minds just like that, you silly
girl."
vs. Benimaru: "Wow, you're really getting the hang of this clowning business,
aren't you?"
vs. Billy: "That staff of yours is like a matchstick! Look at it burn! Oh, and
your body as well."
vs. Chin: "Huh? You're still alive? Shen was right; you really are a monster."
vs. Clark: "You should go apologize to the guy with the eye-patch and ask him
for help!"
vs. Daimon: "Can a former Judo medallist be this weak? The Olympics sure have
low standards."
vs. Duo Lon: "Hee hee.... You'll understand what I'm trying to accomplish soon
enough!"
vs. Elisabeth: "Merci, Betty, and adieu! I really liked you...."
vs. Hwa Jai: "I'd rather not meet you again. Did evolution play a cruel joke on
you?"
vs. Iori: "I have no need for you anymore, m'sieur. Leave while you're still
alive!"
vs. EX Iori: "You're pathetic, you know that? Kusanagi this, and Kusanagi
that.... What are you, his crazy ex!?" *
vs. Joe: "I've never seen a champion who looked so at home lying on the floor!"
vs. K': "That was thrilling! Even artificial flames can pack a punch!"
vs. Kensou: "Do you see now? No amount of training will ever be enough for you!
Ah ha ha."
vs. Kim: "Someone this weak can be a defender of justice? Your students must be
so sad."
vs. King: "Don't go running to the liquor bottle just because you lost to me,
okay?"
vs. Kula: "Scared of my flames? You're like an animal. Now run home before I
skin you."
vs. Kyo: "Your powers to purify may come in handy one day. So I'll let you live
for now."
vs. EX Kyo: "I feel sorry that Miss Kagura is surrounded by helpless idiots
like you."
vs. Leona: "I'm sure you'd love to see Orochi die, but it's just not going to
happen!"
vs. Mai: "Non, non, you should not play with fire, mademoiselle. Leave that to
me!"
vs. Mature: "Hey miss, shall I paint your nails for you? Let me go get some
embalming fluid!"
vs. Maxima: "What the!? Hey you, how are you gonna make up for this!? You made
me crack a nail!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "Good thing you were wearing that mask, old man. At least
it'll hide some of the shame of losing."
vs. Raiden: "You're weak, loud, and a nuisance. Why are you even alive?"
vs. Ralf: "Hey, can I ask you something? How does it feel to lose to a kid?"
vs. Robert: "I was shocked at how weak you are. Maybe you're not cut out to be
a fighter."
vs. Ryo: "Wait, did you think you could win? That was all an act. I mean, how
could I lose?"
vs. Saiki: "Adieu, my ancestor! Sorry to be such a poor descendant. Tee hee
hee...."
vs. Shen: "I kinda like how clumsy you are, but I have no time for you now,
Shen."
vs. Takuma: "Put on your mask! You don't want anyone to see your face like
this, do you?"
vs. Terry: "If you burn up and turn to ashes, maybe you won't be such an
eyesore anymore!"
vs. Vice: "Who would've thought the infamous Hakkeshu would be such
pushovers?"
vs. Yuri: "Your power and speed are sub-par, but at least you make a great
Pierrot!"
vs. True Saiki: "Did you think I wasn't ready for you or something? I can hold
my own."
vs. Dark Ash: "What's mine is mine.... I'm not sharing with anyone else."
*Author's note: He really does have a point there!
ATHENA ASAMIYA
vs. Andy: "You need speed to overcome a bigger enemy. That's what I learned
from you."
vs. Ash: "Danger and opportunity are two sides of the same coin! I win for
staying sharp!"
vs. Athena: "Are you cosplaying...as me? You even copied my moves! Wow!"
vs. Benimaru: "As an idol, scandals are bad news, so I have to decline your
invitation. Sorry."
vs. Billy: "I'm sure you can find another way of life! Just think about it! For
the sake of your beloved...."
vs. Chin: "Awww, that was too easy, Master Chin! You should really lay off the
alcohol!"
vs. Clark: "I may look like a child to you, but I'm a fighter too! Don't
underestimate me!"
vs. Daimon: "You're strong, and your students respect you. You're a true
martial artist!"
vs. Duo Lon: "If I find the man you're looking for I'll call you! So just rest
and heal your injuries for now."
vs. Elisabeth: "You might not want to hear this from a kid, but I think you
need some time to reflect on yourself."
vs. Hwa Jai: "A black heart corrodes the soul. Follow Mr. Kim's teachings and
walk the path of light."
vs. Iori: "Your hatred will one day consume you. I can't help but think that!"
vs. EX Iori: "Iori, your way of life is so sad! But I don't think I'll be able
to change you...."
vs. Joe: "I know how it feels to have your fans cheering for you. It gives
me strength!"
vs. K': "I've learned so much from fighting. I'm sure there is something for
you to gain, as well."
vs. Kensou: "That was close! Wait, are you asleep? Hey, get up! True warriors
know no rest!"
vs. Kim: "I win today, Mr. Kim! Keep cheering for me, okay?"
vs. King: "You're so strong and pretty, Ms. King! All of us female fighters
admire you!"
vs. Kula: "I'm sorry! I let myself get carried away! Are you okay? Do you need
help?"
vs. Kyo: "Winning means carrying the loser's feelings on your back. I'm
beginning to see that now."
vs. EX Kyo: "Phew, that was close! I look forward to fighting you again, Kyo!
Let's stay rivals forever!"
vs. Leona: "I'm sure your efforts will be rewarded too someday! Just keep
fighting!"
vs. Mai: "How did I win? I think it's because I'm fighting to my own rhythm."
vs. Mature: "I fight for what I want to protect! That's why I keep on trying!"
vs. Maxima: "I have a reason to keep fighting! I can never give up!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "The hardships of mastering martial arts and their
fearsomeness.... I feel I understand now. Thank you!"
vs. Raiden: "You're not...Mr. Chang, are you? You're both so BIG!"
vs. Ralf: "S-Sorry. Am I interrupting? You're on an infiltration mission,
aren't you?"
vs. Robert: "I don't want to hurt anyone. But some people just won't listen
otherwise."
vs. Ryo: "No effort will go unrewarded! I believe that too!"
vs. Saiki: "Actually, I know that evil will never disappear from people's
hearts. But we still must not lose to it!"
vs. Shen: "Isn't it empty to just thirst for power? ...I'm sorry if I sounded
rude."
vs. Takuma: "You have taught me the hardships of battle. Thank you, Mr.
Sakazaki!"
vs. Terry: "Wolves have very tight family bonds.... I know you love your
brother, Terry."
vs. Vice: "The world will never be rid of evil. But that's why I keep
fighting!"
vs. Yuri: "Kyokugen has a Dragon, a Tiger, and a Demon. So what does that
make you, Yuri?"
vs. True Saiki: "I can't lose no matter how big an evil I am facing! I have
to protect the weak!"
vs. Dark Ash: "Hatred and enmity towards humans? That is such a sad thing to
live for!"
BENIMARU NIKAIDO
vs. Andy: "Sorry, but I'm obligated to win! I can't disappoint all my fans!"
vs. Ash: "You have Chizuru and Yagami's power, and that's it? Guess that means
YOU'RE the weak link."
vs. Athena: "Just singing and dancing don't cut it these days. Idols need to
know how to fight, baby!"
vs. Benimaru: "You're one of my diehard fans, right? You really nailed the way
I look!"
vs. Billy: "I don't have time to listen to your excuses, so go talk to a wall,
okay? Everyone's waiting to interview me!"
vs. Chin: "I've electrocuted you so many times your neuralgia should be cured
by now."
vs. Clark: "I'm used to being chased by girls, but guys like you? The thought
sends shivers down my spine."
vs. Daimon: "Judo is too slow to keep up with me! You should try learning
something new!"
vs. Duo Lon: "Just being mysterious won't attract the ladies. You need to be
strong and witty first."
vs. Elisabeth: "Your moves lack sharpness, baby! Were you blinded by my
stunning looks?"
vs. Hwa Jai: "What did you think of my kicks, huh? What? They were too fast
to see?"
vs. Iori: "How about giving up on Kyo already, huh? You can't even beat
little old me!"
vs. EX Iori: "You don't seem to get it, so let me explain, Yagami. Things
don't always go your way. You see?"
vs. Joe: "Didn't you hear? The gong already sounded. It's time for the loser
to leave the stage!
vs. K': "Hm? Have any excuses for me? Well, whatever you say would only prove
my superiority!"
vs. Kensou: "A narcissist AND poser? Thank you! That means I can conquer
anything with a smile, yes?"
vs. Kim: "What do I have that you don't? Well, looks and charisma for
starters!"
vs. King: "Miss King! I'd like to book your entire restaurant to celebrate my
victory!"
vs. Kula: "See you again! Hopefully in about 5 years when you've become a
woman!"
vs. Kyo: "There's something missing here, Kyo. Have you been neglecting your
training?"
vs. EX Kyo: "It seems we've been walking at different speeds, Kyo. Looks like
I'm ahead of you now!"
vs. Leona: "You know what you lack? A soft smile to warm a man's heart!"
vs. Mai: "You must have been mesmerized by my looks! Allow me to treat you to
dinner to make up for it!"
vs. Mature: "Wait, is it over already!? But my show hadn't even begun!"
vs. Maxima: "I always win with grace and beauty! I doubt your software will
ever pull that one off."
vs. Mr. Karate: "I won, but I'd rather not fight you again. The damage my
face would endure would not sit well with my fans."
vs. Raiden: "...What a grotesque scream. Can you leave now? My ears are
delicate."
vs. Ralf: "Ugh. You were moving so slowly I thought I might nod off for a
second there."
vs. Robert: "The girls don't just love me for my looks. I can kick butt,
too.... And now you know that."
vs. Ryo: "You lack refinement. That's a decisive factor in battle, you know?"
vs. Saiki: "My kicks were even finer than usual! Maybe it's because you
remind me of that annoying little punk."
vs. Shen: "I hate surly types like you. Every match just turns into a messy
event somehow."
vs. Takuma: "You've got dignity, sure. But dignity doesn't win fights."
vs. Terry: "You're in pain, and I'm just tired.... That wasn't time well
spent for either of us."
vs. Vice: "My strength and beauty are all perfect! Sorry, but you didn't
stand a chance!"
vs. Yuri: "Are you crying? I'll gladly lend you a shoulder to cry on, Miss
Sakazaki."
vs. True Saiki: "Eesh! It'd take a miracle for someone as ugly as you to
defeat my beauty!"
vs. Dark Ash: "Well...at least your pretty flames were able to illuiminate my
magnificent victory! That's something!"
BILLY KANE
vs. Andy: "You got it now!? You're nothing to me! I better not see your ass ever
again! Don't even think about Geese!"
vs. Ash: "I remember I used to be surrounded by punks like you. I ain't
surrounded by 'em now. Catch my drift?"
vs. Athena: "Do you understand now? KOF is not the place for little girls to be
prancing around!"
vs. Benimaru: "Hya ha ha! Nice make-up, Dandy Boy! That shiner eyeshadow is
especially nice!"
vs. Billy: "You may look a bit like me, but you're still a fake! Besides, I'm
way more handsome than that!"
vs. Chin: "Heh! If you get smacked around by my staff that easily, Chinese Kung
Fu ain't so great, is it?"
vs. Clark: "Hya ha ha! Mission failed, army man! Mission FAILED! You shoulda
hoofed it when you had the chance!"
vs. Daimon: "It's pretty obvious I won if you think about it. You're just an
athlete: you know nothing about killing!"
vs. Duo Lon: "Your face looks as white as paper, buddy. I'll let you live out of
pity. You can thank me later."
vs. Elisabeth: "You were talkin' all smug-like just now, but I don't hear you
rantin' now that I've smashed your jaw!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "Are you kidding me!? You were stronger back when you were working
for Geese! Hya ha ha!"
vs. Iori: "Don't think this makes us even, redhead! I was just collecting
interest. I'll be back for the rest later!"
vs. EX Iori: "Wake up, redhead! Get on your feet! I'm not done with you yet!"
vs. Joe: "I'll spare your life for Lily's sake.... Get out of here before I
change my mind!"
vs. K': "Don't think I'm finished with you yet! I'm not done poundin' on that
big mouth of yours!"
vs. Kensou: "Ay! Ay! You're bleeding all over me! I just washed those overalls,
you little punk!"
vs. Kim: "You smack, kick, and beat to get people to listen to you.... What
exactly is the difference between us?"
vs. King: "Is that all!? Hey you! You'd better have a good way to repay me for
wasting my time like that!"
vs. Kula: "What? You're afraid of fire? Is your head full of ice cream!? What
are you even doing here?"
vs. Kyo: "Have you learned not to play with fire yet, kid!? Get lost if you
don't want to get even more jacked up."
vs. EX Kyo: "Does it burn? Are you angry? Do you hate me? Too bad! You lost, so
deal with it, boyo!"
vs. Leona: "You've got a strong pair of eyes for a young girl.... Those eyes'd
get you killed in no time where I'm from."
vs. Mai: "Stop bouncing around! What are you, a grasshopper!? Don't make me bust
your knees!"
vs. Mature: "I'll break every bone in your fingers to make sure you can't ever
do anything stupid again, woman!"
vs. Maxima: "What'd they call you? The Steel Human Weapon? My staff's a more
effective weapon than you!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "Hey, Kyokugen idiot! Stay away from Mr. Geese now, or I'll
break more than your mask next time!"
vs. Raiden: "You're not as good as me, but you're still passable. Want me to
put in a good word for you with Geese?"
vs. Ralf: "Geese doesn't like you army types very much, so I added just a dash
more of extra ass kicking!"
vs. Robert: "Heh heh, sorry. I got a bit carried away there. Your face just begs
to be beaten though, boyo!"
vs. Ryo: "Geese's town doesn't need dirty little karate fools like you
cluttering the streets! Now piss off!"
vs. Saiki: "You shouldn't have challenged me with your delicate little body. Now
you're gonna pay for insulting me!"
vs. Shen: "What's up, stray dog? Not barkin' so loud now, are ya? I didn't even
pummel you that hard!"
vs. Takuma: "Kyokugen's done for if their leader is this crappy. Don't ever let
me catch you in South Town again!"
vs. Terry: "Hm.... I was having so much fun I forgot to kill you. You can live
for now, so wait 'til we meet next time!"
vs. Vice: "Sorry, Miss Sadist! My staff was longer than those filthy arms of
yours!"
vs. Yuri: "I guess I shouldn't have expected anything else of ya. You should
just go and play with the other kids."
vs. True Saiki: "Are you on steroids? Becoming a hunk of muscle ain't gonna
help you against me, you idiot!"
vs. Dark Ash: "Hey, wait. Does this mean I just saved the world? Well doesn't
that just beat all? Me! A savior! That's rich!"
CHIN GENTSAI
vs. Andy: "Aren't you ashamed, losing to an old man like me? You should train
harder!"
vs. Ash: "...The shadow of death is looming. You should be careful which path
you choose next."
vs. Athena: "Don't worry, you're still young and you have your whole life
ahead of you!"
vs. Benimaru: "Quite the vain type, aren't we? Well, I guess one day, that too
will add to your confidence."
vs. Billy: "You do not seem to be all that bad a guy.... So? How about it?
Wanna come train at my school?"
vs. Chin: "Are you supposed to be me? You don't look at all like me. I'm far
more handsome!"
vs. Clark: "Hey, how about respecting the elderly? I tell you, young'uns these
days...."
vs. Daimon: "I'm sure no one can beat you at Judo. But this is KOF, not a Judo
tournament!"
vs. Duo Lon: "There's no need to hurry. Sometimes you just need to relax and
take everything in."
vs. Elisabeth: "Did you learn anything from this fight? I hope this old man
has been of service!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "What the heck is that you're drinking? Can I have some?"
vs. Iori: "You're after the forbidden flames again? I guess that's your way of
life then...."
vs. EX Iori: "Too bad you are wasting your powers.... If you could get rid of
all that hatred, you would be a great fighter."
vs. Joe: "I don't know if I'd call it a hurricane, but it's definitely a
pleasant breeze."
vs. K': "Maybe shouting 'I can handle this by myself' was going a bit too far.
Sorry."
vs. Kensou: "Too soon to change generations yet, it seems. And here I was
thinking of retiring...."
vs. Kim: "What is justice? Hmmm, that's a difficult question. Well, ummmm....
Hmm...zzz...."
vs. King: "Can I come to your restaurant some time? I'd love to try some
Western booze!"
vs. Kula: "Ho ho.... Good, very good! Fighting pretty girls makes me feel a
lot younger!"
vs. Kyo: "You always mention the weight of history. Well, there you have it. I
have a longer history."
vs. EX Kyo: "Ho ho ho! That was good, wasn't it? What do you think? Not bad for
an old man, eh?"
vs. Leona: "You have to carry Orochi's blood to your grave, so you'd best be
prepared."
vs. Mai: "You should do something about those clothes. There are kids
watching!"
vs. Mature: "You're a wicked one, aren't you? Living like that will lead you to
an ugly end."
vs. Maxima: "To learn the weight of victory, you need to lose sometimes too,
you know?"
vs. Mr. Karate: "All this talk of invincibility.... There's no such thing in
this world!"
vs. Raiden: "It's too soon to start boasting about your strength. Give it 30
more years."
vs. Ralf: "You should calm down before fighting. Getting angry leads to crucial
mistakes."
vs. Robert: "You're a lucky guy. You have great rivals to keep you sharp!"
vs. Ryo: "Ow ow ow! That's gonna hurt come winter! These days, age is my
biggest enemy."
vs. Saiki: "Phew, it's tough to truly get rid of the stench of evil. It's not
like you can just put a lid over it...."
vs. Shen: "Hey kid, you should come visit me some time. Be sure to bring some
liquor!"
vs. Takuma: "I can see you've been through a lot. You have the power to show
for it."
vs. Terry: "You can be a vagabond, but go visit Tung sometime. 'The older the
wiser'.... You may learn something new."
vs. Vice: "...Hm? Weren't you dead...? Or is my memory failing me? It's tough
being old...."
vs. Yuri: "Wheeee *hic* hee hee! La la laa. I won! Piece of cake! Whee hee
hee."
vs. True Saiki: "I've met people like you before. Incorrigibly evil, right
down to the bone."
vs. Dark Ash: "Treat me like an old man, huh? I'm not nearly as old as you
are!"
CLARK STEEL
vs. Andy: "I know it's hard to face the facts, but acknowledging defeat is
important too."
vs. Ash: "This ends here. And no, you don't have the right to speak to a
lawyer."
vs. Athena: "Compared to the rain of mortars I've dodged, your psychic powers
are like fireworks to me."
vs. Benimaru: "I know you have underground connections, but this is our job.
Leave it to the pros."
vs. Billy: "You get beat to a pulp and you still don't understand? Your
problem is that you're a slow learner!"
vs. Chin: "I didn't want to bust you up too bad, but, well, it's all part of
the mission."
vs. Clark: "A replica will always be a replica. The original is superior every
time."
vs. Daimon: "You have good opinions on fighting, but that's a bunch of
theories. It won't help you in real combat."
vs. Duo Lon: "You're looking for that Ron guy too? You'd better start talking
right now."
vs. Elisabeth: "Such sadness in your eyes. I'm on a mission, though, so take
your trouble elsewhere."
vs. Hwa Jai: "If I hadn't been on a mission, I might have let you win."
vs. Iori: "You'd better stop right there! You don't want to see what happens
when I raise the threat level."
vs. EX Iori: "The burden of your fate is irrelevant here. Sorry, buddy."
vs. Joe: "You've got energy, but you're still an amateur. You're too weak to
fight a pro."
vs. K': "You should stop playing with fire. Whip's worried about you too."
vs. Kensou: "With everything going exactly as simulated, I don't even feel like
I'm fighting. That was disappointing."
vs. Kim: "Our camp does a much better job of converting criminals than you ever
will."
vs. King: "I don't attack people who've surrendered. We comply with the Geneva
Conventions."
vs. Kula: "Sorry, but I'm too busy to get involved in kids' quarrels."
vs. Kyo: "Your style hasn't changed for 1800 years. War evolves every day. Think
about it."
vs. EX Kyo: "You wouldn't last a day on the battlefield like that. You should
work on becoming tougher."
vs. Leona: "We're professionals; fighting well means nothing if you still lose.
It's all about the result."
vs. Mai: "That was a very cute and sexy dance. You won't beat me by dancing,
though."
vs. Mature: "Sharp as you are, your claws aren't from Solingen. You think mercs
would be afraid of that?"
vs. Maxima: "Disarm yourself right now. There's no telling what you might be
hiding where."
vs. Mr. Karate: "Whew.... For a second I considered calling for backup.... I've
never fought this hard outside of a war."
vs. Raiden: "You've got the brawn, but you lack the brains to win...even in the
pro wrestling ring."
vs. Ralf: "Over so soon, Colonel? Might I suggest getting back to camp for more
practice?"
vs. Robert: "Don't look too depressed; it's not as if losing will kill you.
This isn't war, after all."
vs. Ryo: "A full frontal attack is too risky, but one grab from behind'll do the
trick."
vs. Saiki: "Right, mission complete, I guess. Writing the mission report is the
most painful part for me."
vs. Shen: "You have more to worry about than tactics. You're just plain sloppy."
vs. Takuma: "I can see why the Commander speaks highly of you. You're a
hardened man."
vs. Terry: "You're too famous. There's plenty of intel out there on how to deal
with you."
vs. Vice: "There's nothing worse than tasting defeat without learning the lesson
that goes with it."
vs. Yuri: "Fighting is not all fun and games. You need to know the brutality of
battle to advance."
vs. True Saiki: "All you do is shoot from a distance. That's not strategy,
that's cowardice."
vs. Dark Ash: "Not a line a merc should be saying, but.... You shouldn't exist,
for the sake of world peace."
DUO LON
vs. Andy: "The road to the other world is long and harsh. Proceed with caution."
vs. Ash: "Ash.... What are you after? What do you hope to accomplish by
yourself?"
vs. Athena: "Be prepared. The gates to the land of the dead will soon open."
vs. Benimaru: "We both lead such different lives. For one, I do not enjoy
fighting."
vs. Billy: "Enjoy your servitude while you can.... You may be discarded once
you have served your purpose."
vs. Chin: "Teaching you about the Hizoku would only shorten your life, old man."
vs. Clark: "Look over your shoulder. Those you killed are forming a line behind
you."
vs. Daimon: "A splendid fight. But get out of my way. Continuing will only soil
your good name."
vs. Duo Lon: "I'm not the same as I was yesterday. I will not be defeated by an
illusion!"
vs. Elisabeth: "Your spirit still shows some doubt. Surely it's not because
you're a woman?"
vs. Hwa Jai: "Maybe I'm not one to talk, but your way of life disgusts me."
vs. Iori: "Are you simply looking for a place to die? You are a truly wretched
man...."
vs. EX Iori: "Your soul does not even belong in the depths of Hell. There is no
solace for you anymore...."
vs. Joe: "You fight only for show.... We shall never see eye to eye."
vs. K': "Can your flames burn darkness? No? Then they cannot burn me either."
vs. Kensou: "Let me ask you one thing: have you ever met a man named Ron?"
vs. Kim: "I am in a place beyond good and evil. A place beyond your judgement."
vs. King: "The souls of the dead haunt the depths of my heart. Can you see
them?"
vs. Kula: "The Hizoku are not a group of homicidal maniacs. You are fortunate we
do not kill indiscriminately."
vs. Kyo: "Know when to retreat. Your flames burn hot, but they do not compare to
those of Hell."
vs. EX Kyo: "Don't worry, I won't kill you.... But make sure I never see your
face again."
vs. Leona: "You're still young, yet you talk of life and death.... There's
something quite sad about that."
vs. Mai: "Your fire is a joke compared to Luan's. You pose no threat to me."(*)
vs. Mature: "Do you hear the cries of the lost souls? You shall be joining them
soon!"
vs. Maxima: "Tell me everything you know about the man they call Ron!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "So, it is your desire to die in battle? I shall etch our fight
deeply into my memory."
vs. Raiden: "Don't you know that you can't grab a shadow? Be glad you got off
this easily."
vs. Ralf: "We dwell in the secrecy of the shadows. You will never learn about
the Hizoku."
vs. Robert: "Kyokugen style karate.... I'll remember that...."
vs. Ryo: "I'll acknowledge your skill. But the victor has been decided. Stand
aside!"
vs. Saiki: "Now begone from this world. Darkness is waiting to swallow you
whole."
vs. Shen: "Strange.... Is it because you're my opponent that I actually seem to
enjoy fighting, Shen?"
vs. Takuma: "I live on the edge of shadow. I am beyond the grasp of demons."
vs. Terry: "Live on the edge of shadow, and do not be consumed by it. That's the
Hizoku way."
vs. Vice: "Listen to the hateful moans that beckon you from the darkest depths!"
vs. Yuri: "Cherish the bond you share with your brother. It will be too late
once you lose him."
vs. True Saiki: "Tormented souls travel the world on raging winds. You'll join
them soon."
vs. Dark Ash: "Falling into eternal darkness.... That is an appropiate end for
you."
* Author's note: Yeah, I have no idea who Luan is, really....
ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE
vs. Andy: "Such exemplary siblings. Your strength is equal to that of the
Legendary Wolf."
vs. Ash: "Short yet sweet; is that the life you wish to live, Ash? For what?
Can we not revert to old times?"
vs. Athena: "Quite a letdown. You sully the name of the Goddess of Battle."
vs. Benimaru: "I believe you have incredible talent. But you fooled around too
much. Victory is mine."
vs. Billy: "I hear you care for your sister very much. Then ensure that your
actions don't reflect poorly on her."
vs. Chin: "Secular but wise, as always, Master Chin. Your knowledge truly
knows no bounds."
vs. Clark: "Your spirit is severely lacking. One always has to be prepared for
war."
vs. Daimon: "I felt your indomitable fighting spirit. I would like to fight
you again!"
vs. Duo Lon: "You still cling to that cold-hearted way of fighting. You must
be awful to have as an enemy."
vs. Elisabeth: "You can't match my ability by mimicking my looks. You need
pure, white light in your heart!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "You would do well to reflect upon why your life has unraveled
this way."
vs. Iori: "To think that one of the Sacred Treasures has sunk this low.... How
disgraceful!"
vs. EX Iori: "Your sinful flames cannot burn my pride! Leave my sight at
once!"
vs. Joe: "Calling your style 'bold' is too kind. I think you're just
reckless!"
vs. K': "What you need is an open mind. Though, I assume my words aren't
reaching you right now."
vs. Kensou: "If you can't accept defeat, then you should quit fighting
altogether!"
vs. Kim: "Your magnificent skills embody the strength of your spirit....
Phenomenal!"
vs. King: "You believe victory is determined by fate? It sounds like an empty
excuse for your lack of effort to me."
vs. Kula: "This is no place for a girl like you. Leave, and never come
back....!"
vs. Kyo: "This mission is my life's purpose. I have no expectations of any of
you anymore."
vs. EX Kyo: "You must be able to endure hardship to become strong. If you
cannot, then you should quit fighting."
vs. Leona: "If you wish to stop fearing the shadows within yourself, you must
always keep a serene mind."
vs. Mai: "The speed of your attacks is wondrous! Even I nearly fell behind."</pre><pre id="faqspan-8">
vs. Mature: "Leave this place at once, foul serpent spawn! You have no right to
be here!"
vs. Maxima: "I cannot measure you by normal standards. I would rather not deal
with you again."
vs. Mr. Karate: "What are you trying to hide behind that mask? Such a thing
cannot hide the weakness of your heart!"
vs. Raiden: "Did you think you could see through my moves? You weren't even
moving to me."
vs. Ralf: "I respect your strength and sacrifice as a veteran. But I cannot
afford to lose!"
vs. Robert: "You two really are like dragon and tiger.... It is wonderful to
have rivals to hone your skills with."
vs. Ryo: "I respect your will to perfect a single thing. However, this time I
ask you to stand aside."
vs. Saiki: "All that awaits you is a slow demise.... There's nothing you can do
about it! I shall make certain of it!"
vs. Shen: "Pathetic! You're only holding me back like this. Go back to
Shanghai!"
vs. Takuma: "Such strength and energy! Your power and spirit are beyond the
others'."
vs. Terry: "Such a calm and carefree soul. I see where your strength
originates."
vs. Vice: "This world belongs to mankind! Never shall Orochi see the light of
day again!"
vs. Yuri: "If you want to stay alive in this world, you must improve your
skill."
vs. True Saiki: "Cursed Ouroboros! It is not your hands that hold the future;
It is mankind's!"
vs. Dark Ash: "This should correct the flow of time! History shall not be
reversed! Your demise was written long ago!"
GORO DAIMON
vs. Andy: "You're too obsessed with form. Spirit is more important than
technique!"
vs. Ash: "Everything has its' limits...including my patience! This is my
last warning!"
vs. Athena: "Your greatest strength is your consistency. Don't forget that."
vs. Benimaru: "That won't do, Benimaru.... You and Kyo need to train more!"
vs. Billy: "You should focus on training your mind and body before learning
how to handle weapons."
vs. Chin: "You only seem to grow more vigorous with age. I envy you."
vs. Clark: "It seems I was the better thrower. ...I would like to fight you
again."
vs. Daimon: "You can't get strength by copying people! Now! 1000 squats as
punishment!"
vs. Duo Lon: "You can't move a mountain with trickery. You need to learn to
read the flow of power!"
vs. Elisabeth: "Get up and fight again! Every fight will serve to make you
stronger!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "What a shame.... To see a former champion reduced to this!"
vs. Iori: "Idiot! How can you hope to defeat me, if you can't even conquer
yourself?"
vs. EX Iori: "It's never too late to correct your mistakes. People are
waiting for the day you walk the proper path."
vs. Joe: "Pathetic.... You're a disgrace to Japan."
vs. K': "Focus on training your mind, not your body. That's where your
weakness is!"
vs. Kensou: "Completely worthless! Start again from scratch!"
vs. Kim: "Everyone but myself is my teacher. I am grateful for your
teachings!"
vs. King: "I won't tell you to stop kicking, but be advised, it ruins your
balance!"
vs. Kula: "Judo is perfect for young girls. Here, I'll give you a headband to
start you off."
vs. Kyo: "...Do you see now, Kyo? I'm not the man I used to be!"
vs. EX Kyo: "Have you become this conceited, Kyo? You need to keep training
to stay strong!"
vs. Leona: "Your true foe is inside you.... Keep devoting yourself!"
vs. Mai: "Start with 100 backward rolls! We're starting with the basics!"
vs. Mature: "Vile wench! Begone!"
vs. Maxima: "Gentleness conquers strength.... However, it seems that your
strength cannot conquer gentleness...."
vs. Mr. Karate: "Some things cannot be expressed in words.... You have taught
me what matters as a martial artist!"
vs. Raiden: "Your physical strength is undeniable. But you have no idea how
to use it!"
vs. Ralf: "Hrm...! This feeling of satisfaction.... It is always an enjoyable
sensation."
vs. Robert: "Your fists are truly worthy of the Kyokugen name! Thanks for the
excellent match!"
vs. Ryo: "I would love to give lessons at your dojo some time, if you don't
mind."
vs. Saiki: "You could live to be thousands of years old, and you would still
not understand why you lost today."
vs. Shen: "Judo wasn't built in a day. Kneel before the accumulated might of
history!"
vs. Takuma: "I have witnessed your skills. Thank you for your guidance!"
vs. Terry: "It's not just about winning or losing. You have put up a good fight.
Thank you!"
vs. Vice: "How could I possibly lose to the likes of you? Do not underestimate
Judo...!"
vs. Yuri: "If you aren't prepared to survive here, you'd better drop out
now...."
vs. True Saiki: "So much power, yet you lost.... Think about the reason why that
happened."
vs. Dark Ash: "Have you finally learned your lesson!? Know your ignorance!"
HWA JAI
vs. Andy: "I'm not the man I used to be, you know? You'd do well to remember
that!"
vs. Ash: "KOF just isn't what it used to be. They're even letting infants join
now!"
vs. Athena: "The real champion has arrived! Evacuate women and children
first!"
vs. Benimaru: "Shoot boxing? Never heard of that crap! Well, it can't compare
to Muay Thai anyways!"
vs. Billy: "Come on, Billy! Did your pride break along with that silly little
stick of yours? Hee hee hee!"
vs. Chin: "I had to be really cautious there.... I know better than to
underestimate old Chinese masters."
vs. Clark: "You think you can take on Muay Thai!? You're not cut out for
fighting, idiot."
vs. Daimon: "What? Out already? Get up! I'm not done with you yet!"
vs. Duo Lon: "I don't know about this Hizoku business, but your footwork is a
mess!"
vs. Elisabeth: "That was close! I almost did it again. I have a bit of a
record, you see?"
vs. Hwa Jai: "Who are you trying to fool, huh? You don't look the least bit
like me!"
vs. Iori: "Hey, not bad, he he he. Maybe I'll make you my second!"
vs. EX Iori: "Looks like those flames aren't doing you any good, huh? You're
too green to get in the ring with me!"
vs. Joe: "What goes around comes around, Joe! This time you're the one on the
floor!"
vs. K': "Get out of here before I kick you to death, you filthy sewer rat!"
vs. Kensou: "Pork buns aren't a good diet! If you want power, you need to eat
more cobras, like I do!"
vs. Kim: "Does this mean I've graduated from that school of yours, Professor
Kim? Hya ha ha!"
vs. King: "You call that Muay Thai!? You're just dancing around like a fool!"
vs. Kula: "Stop crying before I kick your face in! Your whining makes my skin
crawl!"
vs. Kyo: "Japanese martial arts!? Whatever! Muay Thai will conquer all!"
vs. EX Kyo: "You've got promise, kid. I'll make you my sparring partner!
That'll put some bulk on you! Hya ha ha!"
vs. Leona: "You think a little girl can withstand my mighty Dragon Kick!? Get
outta here!"
vs. Mai: "Are you with that blonde ninja brat? You can't beat me with cheap
tricks!"
vs. Mature: "Strapped for cash? Bet all your money on me! You'll be rich in no
time! Hya ha ha!"
vs. Maxima: "Hey you! Get your big hunk of junk off my road to victory!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "You can wear all the stupid masks you want, but you're still
a third rate fighter, you loser!"
vs. Raiden: "Hey, Raiden.... How about the two of us team up with Billy next
time?"
vs. Ralf: "Too slow! I'd need to stand still for at least 100 years for you to
hit me!"
vs. Robert: "So this is the Kyokugen style people always talk about? Not much,
is it?"
vs. Ryo: "How did you ever survive in South Town!? You must've been pretty darn
lucky!"
vs. Saiki: "You talk big, but you didn't last very long, did ya? You're nothing
but henchman material! Gya ha ha ha!"
vs. Shen: "Did you really think a stray like you could defeat the Dragon's
Tooth!?"
vs. Takuma: "You should be old enough to understand that Muay Thai beats karate
any day!"
vs. Terry: "Get back to South Town before the fans start losing faith in you,
Mr. Hero!"
vs. Vice: "Break my bones!? Looks like you're the one with the broken leg there!
Hya ha ha!"
vs. Yuri: "What's with that look on your face!? Are you mesmerized by my
strength?"
vs. True Saiki: "You're acting like a big shot, but even Geese had more dignity
than you."
vs. Dark Ash: "Time? What about it? Seems to have stopped for you, hasn't it?"
IORI YAGAMI
vs. Andy: "Bothersome pest! Get out of here! I have no business with you!"
vs. Ash: "You'll regret messing with me far, far after you're in your grave!"
vs. Athena: "Don't think you're special.... You can't save anyone!"
vs. Benimaru: "Crawl into a corner and die! A perfect ending for someone like
you!"
vs. Billy: "I have to give you credit.... There aren't many people as stupid as
you."
vs. Chin: "Everyone talks too much.... ...At least die quietly."
vs. Clark: "You're filth and you always will be. Even when you die."
vs. Daimon: "Consider yourself lucky I can't burn you to ashes.... Now don't do
anything stupid again!"
vs. Duo Lon: "You want to be released from your pain? Then I shall kill you.
Right now...."
vs. Elisabeth: "Your problems end along with your life.... Rejoice, for today
you will be free!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "I won't listen to your pleas for mercy.... Just die like a man!"
vs. Iori: "Regret your own foolishness! ...For all eternity!"
vs. EX Iori: "You're only a fake.... This is a waste of time."
vs. Joe: "Loud-mouthed fool.... Never speak again!"
vs. K': "Your very existence sickens me. I'll put an end to you here!"
vs. Kensou: "I'm sick of seeing the fear in your face. Get lost, you little
brat!"
vs. Kim: "...Come on, say it again. What about that justice of yours?"
vs. King: "I'll show you no mercy if you stand in my way. I have told you so
before."
vs. Kula: "I don't have time to play your games. Get out of here before I
change my mind!"
vs. Kyo: "I have to take care of someone else first. You get to live another
day, Kyo!"
vs. EX Kyo: "Get up, Kyo. I won't let you die this easily. I will keep bashing
you until my blood runs cold!"
vs. Leona: "...You can control your power? And yet the result is still defeat.
Pathetic."
vs. Mai: "I've grown tired of your screams. It's about time you died."
vs. Mature: "Begone! If you're of no use to me, then your existence is
worthless!"
vs. Maxima: "I have no interest in scrap metal. Get out of my sight!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "Your thirst for blood is nowhere close to mine. Just die right
now."
vs. Raiden: "You can't touch the moon.... Grovel there forever!"
vs. Ralf: "I won't even let you choose how you die! Leave this world filled
with regrets!"
vs. Robert: "This is Kyokugen...? Whatever.... This is your limit."
vs. Ryo: "It took two generations to build this? Utterly pathetic."
vs. Saiki: "You.... I don't need you in my world either."
vs. Shen: "I left you your teeth so you could talk. Now tell me, where's the
kid?"
vs. Takuma: "You risk your life for a farce. How stupid can you get?"
vs. Terry: "What use is a wolf with no fangs? Die right now!"
vs. Vice: "Stand in my way and I'll kill you. I've already told you this!"
vs. Yuri: "I won't finish you. Writhe in pain until madness consumes your mind!"
vs. True Saiki: "You're an eyesore! You and Orochi both! Die this instant!"
vs. Dark Ash: "Your pain is the price you pay for being stupid. Soak in it until
the moment you die!"
IORI YAGAMI (EX)
vs. Andy: "I won't harass a loser who's lost his fangs. Be gone now, and take
your humiliation with you!"
vs. Ash: "That smile on your face.... I can't resist setting it on fire."
vs. Athena: "You're always going on about saving mankind, but you can't even
save yourself!"
vs. Benimaru: "Now, choose! Be killed by me now, or beg for your life like a
dog! It's one or the other!"
vs. Billy: "Try as many times as you want, the results won't change. Leave while
you can still move."
vs. Chin: "Are you in such a hurry to die, old man? Very well then, it's lights
out for you! Forever!"
vs. Clark: "Your hand-to-hand combat is like child's play to me. You'd better
stay down if you don't want to get killed."
vs. Daimon: "There's no place for sportsmen here! Run while you're still alive!"
vs. Duo Lon: "How about it? Death will relieve you of your pain. My flames will
burn the ties that bind you!"
vs. Elisabeth: "I don't care about your destiny.... If you bother me again, that
will be the last time.
vs. Hwa Jai: "Muay Thai!? Looks like a silly dance to me. Take some lessons
before challenging me again!"
vs. Iori: "How utterly worthless.... Do you think I can be beaten by a mere
mirror image of myself!?"
vs. EX Iori: "I hope you enjoy your view from the mud. You'll never reach that
crescent moon!"
vs. Joe: "*chuckle* You truly are a genius. A genius clown."
vs. K': "Get lost.... Just looking at you makes me sick."
vs. Kensou: "You noisy little pest.... I'll drown you in a sea of your own
blood!"
vs. Kim: "You say there is no point to justice without power? Then your very
existence is totally meaningless!"
vs. King: "Here's your lesson for today: I won't go easy on women!"
vs. Kula: "Do you fear me? Then crawl into a corner where I can't see you, and
stay there!"
vs. Kyo: "After I kill the kid, I'm coming for you. You'd better stay alive for
me until then, Kyo!"
vs. EX Kyo: "Your moans of agony are like music to my ears, Kyo.... Hm hm hm,
ha ha ha ha, HAAAAA HA HA HA HA!"
vs. Leona: "I'll wring every last drop of blood out of your body.... Then you
won't have any problem to worry about!"
vs. Mai: "Still as annoying as ever.... Shut your mouth and don't ever open it
again!"
vs. Mature: "I'm getting so sick of you.... Don't assume that I'll tolerate your
crap!"
vs. Maxima: "It doesn't matter what your body is made of. All ash is the same to
me!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "Look at yourself.... Now do you realize what an utter waste of
time your entire life has been!?"
vs. Raiden: "There's no point in a life of obesity.... Why don't you bring it to
an end?"
vs. Ralf: "No matter how filthy the person, everyone looks pretty the moment
they burst into flames!"
vs. Robert: "I'm not afraid of Kyokugen.... So take your pitiful fighting style
and get lost!"
vs. Ryo: "Is this what Kyokugen means to you? Ha ha ha! Utterly laughable!"
vs. Saiki: "How does it feel to be burned alive by my flames? Ha ha ha! This
death is way better than you deserve!"
vs. Shen: "Strays should know their place."
vs. Takuma: "So you came all the way out here just to meet your doom? There's no
cure for stupidity, you know?" (*)
vs. Terry: "Even wolves cower like puppies in front of my flames! Now run away
whimpering!"
vs. Vice: "Stop following me around.... Do you want me to kill you a second
time?"
vs. Yuri: "Don't try to get smart with me again! It's for your own health!"
vs. True Saiki: "You crossed me. Don't think you'll die an easy death."
vs. Dark Ash: "So you were engulfed by my flames.... Let that show you the
limits of your own powers."

JOE HIGASHI
vs. Andy: "Is that all you've got, Andy!? Get up! I'm not done with you yet!"
vs. Ash: "You spineless wimp! How am I supposed to have fun if beating you is
so easy!?"
vs. Athena: "Psh. People didn't come here to see you. They came to see
Hurricane Upper Joe!"
vs. Benimaru: "Sorry Casanova, did I scuff up your money maker there?"
vs. Billy: "I'll let you go this time as a favor to Lily. Just promise me
you'll never make that girl cry again!"
vs. Chin: "As soon as you step into the ring, it's business! Even if you're a
drunk ol' man!"
vs. Clark: "Beaten, kicked, and humiliated. It must suck to be you right now,
buddy."
vs. Daimon: "I don't need any spiritual lessons! It's all about having guts!
You hear me?"
vs. Duo Lon: "Hizoku or not, you must've been living in a cave! Who doesn't
know Muay Thai champ Joe Higashi!?"
vs. Elisabeth: "People come here to fight, you know? If you're not up for that,
just buzz off!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "I'll take you on any time, Hwa! Here or in the Muay Thai ring!"
vs. Iori: "Can't fight without your flames, huh? Then get back to training,
you weakling!"
vs. EX Iori: "You'll lose anyway, so try giving up sooner next time! That way
you won't have to get your nose broken!"
vs. Joe: "You learned an important lesson! Never make illegal copies of
anything!"
vs. K': "'I can handle this myself' my ass! It'd take three of you to handle
me!"
vs. Kensou: "I'll bring you some pork buns later. After all, you'll be living
off hospital food for a while."
vs. Kim: "This isn't a debate contest! Get out of my ring and find yourself a
soapbox!"
vs. King: "This proves it! My Muay Thai is the real thing, and you're just a
fraud!"
vs. Kula: "I can't even take this seriously. Kuan would be a better opponent
for you."
vs. Kyo: "You represent Japan, right? Then get with it! You're way too
weak...."
vs. EX Kyo: "You need more experience. There are no shortcuts to strength....
Well, unless you're a genius like me!"
vs. Leona: "Stop pretending to be the silent type. Just admit your defeat like
a loser should!"
vs. Mai: "Stop focusing on your Shiranui arts and start training for married
life already!"
vs. Mature: "Can't you take a hint, blondie? I don't give a damn about you!"
vs. Maxima: "You sure you got a computer for a brain? 'Cause it's illogical to
fight with zero chance of winning!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "You've trained so much, and you still can't beat me? Guess
you're not worth your salt. Give up already!"
vs. Raiden: "Good thing you have that mask, huh? Now no one'll notice all your
bruises!"
vs. Ralf: "Hey loser, you're in the way! It's time for my victory speech!"
vs. Robert: "Come on, that's no good! Try to last at least one round, will ya?"
vs. Ryo: "Stop overanalyzing everything! This just means I'm stronger than you!"
vs. Saiki: "Here, I'll give you my sweet replica trunks! Maybe they'll give you
a nice boost in power!"
vs. Shen: "Don't you ever stop whining? You're like a pet begging for its'
owner!"
vs. Takuma: "It's time for you to retire. At least you can say I was your final
opponent!"
vs. Terry: "Now you lay low for a while! I'm sick of you two always hogging the
spotlight!"
vs. Vice: "You better run with your tail between your legs before I fry you
too!"
vs. Yuri: "Karate isn't amateur boxing, Yuri. Put some weight in your punches!"
vs. True Saiki: "You need more power, speed, and luck. All you have now is a big
mouth."
vs. Dark Ash: "Is that all? These flames of yours don't stand a chance against
my hurricane!"
K'
vs. Andy: "It's not that you're weak. It's just that I'm too strong."
vs. Ash: "There are many annoying people in this world. But you are the
worst...."
vs. Athena: "I don't know how to hold back.... If you're weak, then don't show
up in the first place!"
vs. Benimaru: "I'm tired of seeing your face.... Just get outta here."
vs. Billy: "Are you kidding me? Did you actually think you stood a chance
against me with your puny flames!?"
vs. Chin: "I don't want to hear from you anymore. Get out of here before you
get hurt."
vs. Clark: "...Take good care of her for me. I can't really communicate with
her."
vs. Daimon: "Nothing's more boring than a fight where everyone knows who's
going to win."
vs. Duo Lon: "One of the Hizoku...? ...No clue."
vs. Elisabeth: "What a pain.... Stop lecturing during the fight!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "Don't you realize that nobody wanted to see you here?"
vs. Iori: "So what did you get in exchange for your flames, huh? Anything?"
vs. EX Iori: "I'm not the one you're looking for, right? Well, why did you even
bother me in the first place then?"
vs. Joe: "I wouldn't hate entering KOF so much if I didn't have to fight sweaty
guys like you!"
vs. K': "Having second thoughts? Just give up and don't try anything stupid
again."
vs. Kensou: "The strong at least know when to quit. Weak fools are a pain
because they drag things out."
vs. Kim: "Nothing's more suspicious than a guy yelling about justice all the
time."
vs. King: "You're right; gender isn't important. All that matters is if you're
strong or weak."
vs. Kula: "Kids have no business showing up in a place like this. Stay at
home!"
vs. Kyo: "Teaming up with the same people again, huh? Maybe that's why your
flames are getting lukewarm."
vs. EX Kyo: "God, you're a pain in the neck, aren't you? Go bother that redhead
and stop wasting my time!"
vs. Leona: "Memories lost, memories you want to lose.... The world just never
goes your way, huh?"
vs. Mai: "Stop with the showy get-up.... ...Wanna get burned?"
vs. Mature: "Orochi's flunkie? ...Like I give a damn."
vs. Maxima: "I don't mind testing each other, but it doesn't make sense if you
end up breaking down in the warm up."
vs. Mr. Karate: "So what are you tryin' to say, huh? If the enemy appears, you
just beat 'em up, that's all there's to it!"
vs. Raiden: "Tch.... There's blood on my boots! This is why I hate fighting
weaklings...."
vs. Ralf: "You guys are only getting in my way.... Just leave things to me and
buzz off!"
vs. Robert: "I think I told you before? I can handle you guys by myself."
vs. Ryo: "We're done, right? ...Or do you want to die?"
vs. Saiki: "All bark and no bite.... Whoever invented that phrase must have
been thinking specifically of you."
vs. Shen: "Were you hoping for a miracle or something? Even a miracle wouldn't
have helped you."
vs. Takuma: "You call that a fight? It's time to put you in a home, isn't it,
old man?"
vs. Terry: "You're a lucky guy.... You barely escaped being turned into
ashes...."
vs. Vice: "I don't like big women. Get out of here before I burn you to a
crisp."
vs. Yuri: "This fight was over before it started."
vs. True Saiki: "You didn't really think you were going to beat me like that,
did you?"
vs. Dark Ash: "Turning history to ashes!? I don't need exaggerated powers like
that to beat you."
KIM KAPHWAN
vs. Andy: "Finely honed skills and a pure spirit.... You are strong indeed!
Bravo!"
vs. Ash: "Even if I die, I will not succumb to evil! That is my conviction and
my way of justice!"
vs. Athena: "Oh no, I forgot to hold back! Jhun is not going to like this."
vs. Benimaru: "Strength without defeat is fragile after a loss. You should
realize that defeat can temper strength, too."
vs. Billy: "Now, promise me you will part ways with Geese! Join the path of
the righteous, for your sister's sake!"
vs. Chin: "I wonder if I'll be strong as you when I turn 80. Impressive,
Master Chin!"
vs. Clark: "I know the army teaches discipline. But you are in a class of
your own!"
vs. Daimon: "A sound mind in a sound body.... I see! I'll use this knowledge
in my teachings!"
vs. Duo Lon: "Justice is on my side! This victory proves it! Change your ways
and join my cause!"
vs. Elisabeth: "I understand you have your reasons. But so do I! I must prove
my way of life to my pupils!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "What's the matter? Finished already? You're still far from
graduation, Hwa!"
vs. Iori: "Don't hate people! Hate the blackness in your own heart! You will
see the light!"
vs. EX Iori: "Yagami! Kusanagi's not your true enemy! It's your own weakness
and the evil in your heart! Do not give in!"
vs. Joe: "Not even a Muay Thai champion can stand in my way. Tae Kwon Do
defeats all!"
vs. K': "Are you fighting for good or evil? I haven't quite figured you out
yet."
vs. Kensou: "Those who only crave power shall easily stray off the path. Do
not forget this."
vs. Kim: "Copying my appearance is futile! Justice without strength has no
meaning!"
vs. King: "I'm impressed you challenged my Tae Kwon Do with your kicks....
But, it seems I was the better fighter."
vs. Kula: "So young and innocent, yet so strong.... I hope you will choose the
correct path."
vs. Kyo: "What's the matter, Kyo? Stand up! Your spirit is still burning!"
vs. EX Kyo: "Power, speed, and technique.... You have it all! So why did you
lose? Try to figure this out yourself."
vs. Leona: "I used to worry about you. But it seems your companions have given
you strength."
vs. Mai: "I can see how you might dazzle many men. But my conviction is
unwavering!"
vs. Mature: "The wings of the Phoenix will not bend! ...As long as the fire of
justice burns!"
vs. Maxima: "I don't think you're a terrorist. But if you try and break the
law again...."
vs. Mr. Karate: "You say martial arts only subdues people. I can see what you
mean, but to me it serves to help people!"
vs. Raiden: "Your body and power remind me of Chang. You should use them for
justice!"
vs. Ralf: "An intense battle with you, who has stared death in the face.... Is
this not a 'battlefield'?"
vs. Robert: "You're strong, but I cannot be defeated. For it is my task to
embody justice!"
vs. Ryo: "We have to show the younger generation what is right! That is our
task!"
vs. Saiki: "You said you have absolute power. But do you really? If so, this is
definite proof that justice rules all!"
vs. Shen: "I despise the sin, not the sinner! Join my dojo! Everyone is waiting
for you!"
vs. Takuma: "Your karate blends tradition and innovation marvelously, Master
Sakazaki!"
vs. Terry: "Fighting you, Terry, provides me with a profound lesson whether I
win or lose."
vs. Vice: "Yes, it may sound trite, but I still firmly believe in it! Justice
shall prevail!"
vs. Yuri: "...I have always wondered.... Why does your move have both 'swallow'
and 'phoenix' in the name?"
vs. True Saiki: "Chang! Choi! Did you see this? This is what happens to
evildoers!"
vs. Dark Ash: "Some people may think I'm crazy.... But I'll say it anyway! Evil
shall never prevail!"
KING
vs. Andy: "You're this strong, and you still can't hold back Mai.... Ha ha,
relationships are an entirely different arena."
vs. Ash: "Is that all you can do? You're not all you're cracked up to be."
vs. Athena: "I have way more experience than you. I don't think that we can
even be compared."
vs. Benimaru: "If you say that you let me win because you're a feminist, I'll
knock you out!"
vs. Billy: "Sorry, but this is all going according to plan. I wish all my
opponents were as predictable as you."
vs. Chin: "I'm sorry, but there's no way I'm letting you near the alcohol in
my bar!"
vs. Clark: "I'd be in real trouble if you ever got ahold of me. Sorry, but I
couldn't afford to hold back there."
vs. Daimon: "You've got one of the best poker faces I've ever seen. I couldn't
tell I was winning!"
vs. Duo Lon: "I think you're mistaking strength for something else. You can't
become strong like that."
vs. Elisabeth: "If you don't have precision to go along with your speed, your
speed is worthless."
vs. Hwa Jai: "That fight was too boring to learn anything from. What a
letdown."
vs. Iori: "If you lose in a place like this, your rival isn't going to think
much of you."
vs. EX Iori: "You're always focused on someone who isn't the opponent in front
of you. No wonder you lost."
vs. Joe: "Does it really matter where I learned my Muay Thai? I'm clearly
stronger!"
vs. K': "You should go and hone your skills to match that big mouth of yours!"
vs. Kensou: "Want a job at my place? A couple years of experience as a
bouncer should do you good."
vs. Kim: "If you're going to lecture people on things, make sure to train
yourself too."
vs. King: "You think you can become me with skills like that? You're not
woman enough!"
vs. Kula: "Looks like I got a bit carried away there. Are you okay?"
vs. Kyo: "You can't believe you lost? That makes one of us."
vs. EX Kyo: "I guess that was kind of fun. Don't hesitate to challenge me
again. I'll take you on any time."
vs. Leona: "What matters is if you're strong or weak, that's it.... Gender's
irrelevant, am I right?"
vs. Mai: "...In case you forgot, I'm a woman. I'm not going to fall prey to
those looks of yours."
vs. Mature: "That was boring. Maybe we're just not compatible as battle
opponents."
vs. Maxima: "Yikes! My legs are really hurting. What on earth are you made
of!?"
vs. Mr. Karate: "You fight Yuri and Ryo in the same way, right? It must be
hard to have a martial artist for a father."
vs. Raiden: "Just looking at that gut of yours makes me forget about holding
back."
vs. Ralf: "Now I just want to get home and wash the smell of gunpowder off of
everything."
vs. Robert: "Seems like the tiger is hibernating. That wasn't much of a fight
at all."
vs. Ryo: "Still as straightforward as ever! But, well, that's who you are,
right?"
vs. Saiki: "It's all well and good to talk big, but it makes you look like a
bit of a clown when you lose, no?"
vs. Shen: "I've spent some time in South Town. I'm used to dealing with punks
like you."
vs. Takuma: "What? Your successor? Wh-What on earth are you talking about?"
vs. Terry: "Still wandering around? With your strength, you should have no
trouble getting a job as a bouncer!"
vs. Vice: "Stop looking at me with those creepy eyes of yours! It makes my skin
crawl!"
vs. Yuri: "I respect your enthusiasm, but I really think you should have Ryo
teach you the basics."
vs. True Saiki: "I'm sure you had some grand ambitious dream, didn't you? Well
sorry, but this is reality."
vs. Dark Ash: "How does KOF always attract weirdos like you!?"
KULA DIAMOND
vs. Andy: "Don't relax until it's over? I'm pretty sure it's over, Foxy! He's
not even moving!"
vs. Ash: "I don't like this guy's flames either, but, he seems...lonely...."
vs. Athena: "I want to play dress-up just like you! I'll ask Diana about that
next time."
vs. Benimaru: "Looking for pretty ladies? I know a couple! They're stronger and
taller than you!"
vs. Billy: "Uncle told me that grown-ups should be nicer. I guess that means
this guy's still immature."
vs. Chin: "...Mister, you smell like alcohol! I hate the smell of alcohol!"
vs. Clark: "Diana told me to stay away from people who smoke!"
vs. Daimon: "Judo is pretty funny! Let's play again sometime, Mister Headband!"
vs. Duo Lon: "Hello, Foxy? I won again! So, what should I be doing next?"
vs. Elisabeth: "Oh, hello? Diana? Yeah, I won. Nah, I'm fine. Not a scratch on
me!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "Seirah told me I shouldn't become 'corrupted' like you! What's
'corrupted' mean?"
vs. Iori: "...Huh? I didn't notice until now, but didn't you used to use
fire...?"
vs. EX Iori: "I hate this guy's blue flames.... But I don't mind K's.... I
wonder why?" (*)
vs. Joe: "Weak guys with big mouths are losers! That's what Foxy says!"
vs. K': "K', you went easy on me, didn't you? You don't have to lie, I know
everything."
vs. Kensou: "Don't worry too much about losing. Uncle always says life's full of
ups and downs."
vs. Kim: "Sorry! I have no idea what you're talking about!"
vs. King: "'May I take your order, please?' Tee hee. Can I be a waitress too?"
vs. Kula: "Uncle said people copy you if you're good.... So I guess this means
I'm good!"
vs. Kyo: "I don't like fire, but yours looks kinda like the fire K' has...."
vs. EX Kyo: "You're misunderstanding me, so I'll tell you! I'm not scared of
flames! I only hate them!"
vs. Leona: "Why do you look like you're going to cry? Did I hurt you or
something?"
vs. Mai: "What's a kunoichi? Can I eat it? Uncle Maxima always says they're
trouble."
vs. Mature: "Hello, Diana? I won! But why were you so serious about me beating
her?"
vs. Maxima: "Hey, uncle, are you alright? Hellooo? You didn't break, did you?"
vs. Mr. Karate: "Can I take your mask home as a souvenir? I can, right? I'm
sure Diana and Foxy would like this."
vs. Raiden: "Wheee! Your tummy's so jiggly! What's in there? Air?"
vs. Ralf: "This is 'playing fighter'...? But it's the same thing we're always
doing."
vs. Robert: "I won, I won. Diana told me to just fight like always, and it
worked!"
vs. Ryo: "Whoops, he's frozen stiff.... Did I overdo it again?"
vs. Saiki: "Even the flames of hell freeze before me! Tee hee. That sounded
pretty cool, right, Diana?"
vs. Shen: "Why is this guy so angry all the time? I dunno, but I'm sure it's not
my fault!"
vs. Takuma: "'Kula can handle it herself!'. How did you like my K' impression?"
vs. Terry: "I've seen all your moves on TV, so you can't hit me with them! It
must be tough to be so famous!"
vs. Vice: "That lady was so scary.... I didn't really understand what she was
saying, though...."
vs. Yuri: "Ah ha ha. Fighting is so much fun! You were enjoying it too, right?"
vs. True Saiki: "All you keep doing is shooting at me from a mile away. That's
lame!"
vs. Dark Ash: "I can't stand this! All hot and scary.... I HATE black flames!"
* Author's note: Blue flames? What is he, Bison?
KYO KUSANAGI
vs. Andy: "Your problem is your bad luck. You had the misfortune of running
into me!"
vs. Ash: "You've made a fool out of me one too many times. Consider this a
lesson."
vs. Athena: "You're getting a little old for that outfit. Try something
Chinese, like your buddy!"
vs. Benimaru: "Vengeance failed, Benimaru! Not even your lightning can
extinguish my fire!"
vs. Billy: "You're all bark and no bite, chump. This fight almost bored me to
tears."
vs. Chin: "4000 years of history, and you can't even beat an 1800-year-old
power?"
vs. Clark: "I've honestly forgotten how to lose. Could you give me some tips?"
vs. Daimon: "I'm sick of listening to your sermons! All that matters is
results!"
vs. Duo Lon: "Legendary assassins!? Whatever! You should spend more time
training!"
vs. Elisabeth: "I don't care what you're trying to do! I've got my own stuff to
take care of!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "Your pride and confidence seem to have been completely
incinerated by my fire!"
vs. Iori: "It'd be mean to take your purpose in life away, so I'm not losing
that easily, Yagami!"
vs. EX Iori: "Those eyes.... You still haven't given up, have you? But I won.
And there's nothing you can do about it."
vs. Joe: "Your so-called hurricane can barely blow out birthday candles!"
vs. K': "You don't even count as a warm up any more. Stop living in the past,
and move on!"
vs. Kensou: "People say you can learn from losing, but that's a lie. All you've
learned is that you're weak, right?"
vs. Kim: "I thought your pupils were pretty iffy in the first place, but this
bunch is.... Er, never mind...."
vs. King: "Do you know your own limits now? Next time you fight me, you'll need
to surpass them!"
vs. Kula: "You hate fire? Then go back home and cry to your mommy!"
vs. Kyo: "You have good taste, but there's no imitating the flames of Kusanagi!"
vs. EX Kyo: "Hey, you faker! Go get me some chips, chop chop! ...Money!? This is
coming out of your pocket!"
vs. Leona: "Do you see how green you are? You need to practice more!"
vs. Mai: "You challenge me with fire!? Might as well teach your grandma to milk
ducks!"
vs. Mature: "An Orochi woman...? You're still not giving up!? I'll beat you
every time you try!"
vs. Maxima: "You should've given up from the start. I was worried you might
explode!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "...You really that Kyokugen master? Your spirit was like that
of a different person."
vs. Raiden: "Is that gut of yours filled with oil? I've never seen anything
burn like that!"
vs. Ralf: "You say we're just 'playing fighter'? Then you must be playing
soldier!"
vs. Robert: "You can't go back to your students after losing like that! Wanna
give it another shot?"
vs. Ryo: "What's wrong? You seem to be hesitating. Has training too much gotten
to you?"
vs. Saiki: "You look like a sheet of paper, maybe that's why you burn so well.
Now don't ever let me see you again!"
vs. Shen: "Stop whining, you loser! Or do you want to get burned for real?"
vs. Takuma: "Can you please tell my dad he needs to stop making my mom worry and
retire already?"
vs. Terry: "What happened to your usual toughness? I've never heard of wolves
hibernating!"
vs. Vice: "I don't know what happened between you and my dad, but don't try to
take it out on me!"
vs. Yuri: "If you could punch as much as you talk, you'd be a much better
fighter."
vs. True Saiki: "Tch! Winning doesn't make me feel any better.... Why do I
always have to deal with these punks?"
vs. Dark Ash: "Oooh! You changed color! Big deal. At least the other kid put up
a fight."
KYO KUSANAGI (EX)
vs. Andy: "Thanks! You gave me a good workout! I'll repay you by calling an
ambulance for you!"
vs. Ash: "I'm sure you've got your own problems, but at least now we're even.
Now get lost!"
vs. Athena: "How can you protect other people if you can't even fend for
yourself? Try saving a kitten from a tree first!"
vs. Benimaru: "Man, that was a pain.... I guess we've been fighting for so
long we can read each other's moves, huh?"
vs. Billy: "Ugh, I'm getting so sick of all these hooligans! How did you even
get through the preliminaries!?"
vs. Chin: "Just because you've lived longer than others doesn't give you the
right to lecture everyone you meet!"
vs. Clark: "Always the cool guy, huh? If you want to win, it doesn't hurt to
just go berserk once in a while, man!"
vs. Daimon: "You shouldn't be lecturing me, Daimon. Why don't you start by
training yourself from scratch?"
vs. Duo Lon: "Is that your best? Are you sure you're not burdening yourself
so much you can't move forward anymore?"
vs. Elisabeth: "I hope you understand now. 1800 years of history is nothing
to be sneezed at!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "What? You look like you've got something to say. If you're not
satisfied, just ask for a rematch."
vs. Iori: "Sorry to embarrass you in front of your ladies! Maybe I should've
let you show off some!"
vs. EX Iori: "How long do you plan to keep this up, Yagami? You're never, ever
going to beat me like that!"
vs. Joe: "Look at you! You're not a fighter, you're a comedian! Have you been
going to the wrong kind of school!?"
vs. K': "Sorry to disappoint you, buddy, but no one thinks you're actually a
copy of me."
vs. Kensou: "Looks like the only thing you've been training is that mouth of
yours."
vs. Kim: "Loosen up a bit, Kim! You'll never defeat me if you're always uptight
like that!"
vs. King: "I know you by now, lady. I won't underestimate you because you're a
woman. I'm not that conceited."
vs. Kula: "Sorry, but my flames can't be extinguished by your puny ice powers.
You should've stayed at home!"
vs. Kyo: "You're not my clone, yet you can use fire? How? You should teach
some of that to Shingo!"
vs. EX Kyo: "Sorry, but I'm not that illogical. You need to rethink your
strategy if you want to be me!"
vs. Leona: "You need at least five more years of combat! That'll do you some
good. I promise!"
vs. Mai: "Come now, miss ninja. Did you think those pitiful flames could defeat
my Kusanagi Style!?"
vs. Mature: "So you came out here just to get pounded on? I don't know what
you're trying to do, but give it up already!"
vs. Maxima: "I probably should've asked sooner, but you're not gonna explode are
you? At least wait until I'm gone!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "Why would you go that far just to become stronger? I don't even
need any effort to be totally awesome!"
vs. Raiden: "Good thing you've got a ton of flab, Raiden! I'm sure it helped
absorb a lot of that damage."
vs. Ralf: "You could use some more variety. Just taking full swings all the time
won't take you far."
vs. Robert: "You can't help out at home AND live as a fighter. This is KOF! You
have to be devoted to combat!"
vs. Ryo: "You're a straight man, with a straight fighting style. Unfortunately,
this makes you incredibly predictable."
vs. Saiki: "So you're behind this whole mess then, are you? Time for some
payback...with interest!"
vs. Shen: "If you're only going to bark like a dog, go back to Shanghai! I have
no time to deal with losers."
vs. Takuma: "If you've got that much time to spare, why don't you go talk some
sense into that deadbeat dad of mine?"
vs. Terry: "That's no good, is it, Mr. Legendary Wolf? You're really
disappointing your fans!"
vs. Vice: "The Orochi Hakkeshu ain't what they used to be. Are you too busy
babysitting Yagami or something?"
vs. Yuri: "If you lose this hard, there's really nothing you can do about it.
Stop sulking and start practicing!"
vs. True Saiki: "Sorry, but I have no time to deal with the likes of you! I'm
sure that dude is hot on my tail as well!"
vs. Dark Ash: "First green, now black!? Those dirty flames of yours don't stand
a chance against the Kusanagi fire!"
LEONA
vs. Andy: "You move too much. You'll never win like that."
vs. Ash: "That smile of yours.... I loathe it."
vs. Athena: "You've never looked death in the eye. You have no clue what lies
beyond."
vs. Benimaru: "You.... I cannot tell how serious you're taking this...."
vs. Billy: "You should've used firearms instead of a stick. ...You misjudged my
strength."
vs. Chin: "You're a hard man to grasp. Or are all martial arts masters like
this?"
vs. Clark: "No notable disturbance. Continuing mission."
vs. Daimon: "Superb movement.... But this is not a sport. It's battle...."
vs. Duo Lon: "If you want to survive, you must never quit. That's what I was
taught."
vs. Elisabeth: "You can see light inside the darkness? I have found my own
light...!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "Pride isn't going to help you here.... ...Me? I don't have
any...."
vs. Iori: "You should never...touch those flames again."
vs. EX Iori: "I don't ever want to run into you again. There's no merit in this
for either of us."
vs. Joe: "Talking leads to carelessness.... And you talk far too much."
vs. K': "You don't want to lose to your own fate. We have that much in common."
vs. Kensou: "You seem to carry a heavy burden. I understand.... But, I won't
pity you...."
vs. Kim: "You are free to believe in justice.... But you shouldn't force it
upon others...."
vs. King: "You have a life outside of fighting. I envy you...just a little."
vs. Kula: "Laughing is...even tougher than urban warfare."
vs. Kyo: "I know you have a duty.... But I have my mission, too."
vs. EX Kyo: "Are you running from your destiny? I'm not. I've learned that
destiny is something to overcome."
vs. Leona: "I know how to overcome myself. This removes all doubt."</pre><pre id="faqspan-9">
vs. Mai: "Is there any point to that suggestive outfit...?"
vs. Mature: "Anger and doubt.... They can all be controlled."
vs. Maxima: "I remember what that child told me. You are nicer than you look."
vs. Mr. Karate: "You can put on a mask, but it won't hide who you truly are."
vs. Raiden: "Your raw power is your only praiseworthy feature...."
vs. Ralf: "Minor injuries sustained. Continuing mission."
vs. Robert: "Are you satisfied now? Then go home."
vs. Ryo: "Your fists are quite formidable. But they're useless if you can't hit
me...."
vs. Saiki: "Say whatever you want.... My mind will not waver...."
vs. Shen: "If you can't win under perfect conditions, you'll never be able to
win."
vs. Takuma: "I sense that you too have overcome the death of a family
member...."
vs. Terry: "Everyone can...overcome their past."
vs. Vice: "I can't afford to lose anymore.... Not to you, or to myself."
vs. Yuri: "Why did you lose...? Because you don't know the fear of battle...."
vs. True Saiki: "I hate blood.... No matter whose it is."
vs. Dark Ash: "Using someone else's power to win.... What's the point of that?"
MAI SHIRANUI
vs. Andy: "How about it, Andy? I think it's pretty easy to see who your best
partner is, right?"
vs. Ash: "See? Even a beauty like me can be pretty scary when she gets angry."
vs. Athena: "Why don't you take a break from the idol business and concentrate
more on fighting?"
vs. Benimaru: "My beauty led me to victory. ...Jokes aside, don't you think
you're a bit too careless?"
vs. Billy: "I just realized you're back in your old clothes. I guess that image
change didn't work out for you?"
vs. Chin: "Why don't you retire and live the rest of your life in peace?"
vs. Clark: "Do you think those sunglasses look good on you!? You can't even
see!"
vs. Daimon: "It doesn't matter how strong you are if you don't look at people
properly."
vs. Duo Lon: "You don't need a doctor. You need a shaman or something! I think
you're possessed!"
vs. Elisabeth: "Blanc-style? Fist of Light? Sorry, never heard of 'em. The world
really is a big place."
vs. Hwa Jai: "It's no surprise that Boxer Boy took that belt away from you....
Your skills are sad."
vs. Iori: "You know, you might be a pretty handsome guy if you just stood there
and shut up!"
vs. EX Iori: "Oh dear, looks like I burnt your precious hair! I'm so sorry! Oh
ho ho!"
vs. Joe: "You're always wearing the same thing! Please tell me that you at least
have different pairs of those shorts."
vs. K': "Maybe you should challenge me again when your voice breaks, kiddo."
vs. Kensou: "I get it. You couldn't bring yourself to hurt the beautiful lady. I
promise I won't tell Athena."
vs. Kim: "Converting them? Geez.... I do have to admire your tenacity, though."
vs. King: "Objectively speaking, it's apparent that I'm the better fighter here,
no?"
vs. Kula: "I don't have time to deal with you. Why don't you run along and play
now?"
vs. Kyo: "I can see why you're number 2 in Japan. Who's number 1? Do you even
need to ask?"
vs. EX Kyo: "You've been gloomy lately. Why don't you try taking a shower under
a big waterfall? I know just the place!" (*)
vs. Leona: "You may not want advice, but why don't you try being friendlier?
It's much less stressful, you know?"
vs. Mai: "Strength, beauty, even the suppleness of my skin. I'm better than you
in every facet!"
vs. Mature: "Look at the big hole you tore in my outfit! You're going to pay to
fix it, right?"
vs. Maxima: "Seriously!? Are there even regulations for what can enter this
tournament!? This is getting ridiculous!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "Oh my, are you really Yuri's dad!? It's like you're a
completely different person just by wearing a mask...."
vs. Raiden: "Weren't you stronger without the mask? ...Or are you still
claiming you've never fought without it?"
vs. Ralf: "Won't you forget your training if you're here all the time? Maybe
you're a better fighter than soldier now."
vs. Robert: "If you're going to lose, can't you at least put up a better fight?
Yuri must be disappointed in you."
vs. Ryo: "Why don't you try studying Shiranui style? You might learn something
new!"
vs. Saiki: "I still don't understand what exactly's going on. How are you
related to Ash Crimson again!?"
vs. Shen: "You just lost to a total babe! Can't you look a bit happier while
you're falling to the ground?"
vs. Takuma: "Surprises work best when they're kept secret. Are you surprised at
the Shiranui style's moves?"
vs. Terry: "Geez, isn't it time you stopped teaming up with Andy? Hellooo! Take
a hint!"
vs. Vice: "I'm not weak enough for a vulgar woman like you to tear me apart."
vs. Yuri: "Awww, what's the matter little Yuri? You'll never catch up with me
like that!"
vs. True Saiki: "I don't know what you're trying to do, but can't you do it
somewhere else?"
vs. Dark Ash: "This is so confusing! If you're someone else, just say so!"
* Author's note: That sounded a lot kinkier than it should've been....
MATURE
vs. Andy: "You should be arriving at Heaven's gate about now. Ta-ta, pretty
boy!"
vs. Ash: "You like it hot, too? Too bad. You're going to quietly turn cold
now."
vs. Athena: "Can you deny that hypocrisy is human nature? So, by what right do
you sinful humans judge us?"
vs. Benimaru: "There's something attractive about you. You have the scent of a
graceful beast."
vs. Billy: "Status, power, money.... I don't see why humans care. It's so
sinful to hurt others over such things."
vs. Chin: "You fight for the weak? That disgusts me. You're not strong enough
to call yourself a defender of justice."
vs. Clark: "Do you see now, Mr. Mercenary? Good women come at a high price."
vs. Daimon: "Why are human beings so foolish? Do they not see resistance is
futile!?"
vs. Duo Lon: "You don't seem to need a guide; you already know the way to
Hell."
vs. Elisabeth: "You.... Kagura.... Humans are really foolish. They're beyond
salvation."
vs. Hwa Jai: "Man's lust for power and fame proves his foolishness.... It'll
all go to naught once you're dead...."
vs. Iori: "This is not like you, Yagami. Have you lost your ferocity as well
as your flames?"
vs. EX Iori: "You used to be much more wild and violent. What happened to the
man who killed me back then?"
vs. Joe: "It's not bedtime yet. This might hurt, but bear it. It'll start
feeling good soon enough...."
vs. K': "This will be a day for you to remember.... The day you become free of
your burden!"
vs. Kensou: "I kinda like you, little boy. Especially the way you struggle for
your life...."
vs. Kim: "Who are you to judge right and wrong? Isn't that precisely the
self-righteousness of man?"
vs. King: "Your screams are exquisite.... I'd hate to kill you too quickly."
vs. Kula: "Seeing fresh snow makes me want to step on it. I feel the same about
you. Blame yourself for this."
vs. Kyo: "I won't kill you now. Do you know why? Because soon he'll be coming
for you, with his flames back."
vs. EX Kyo: "I won't kill you, but don't take this the wrong way. I'm taking
you to the one who's waiting for you."
vs. Leona: "Poor little child.... There's no escaping your fate."
vs. Mai: "I'll leave your pretty face unmarred as I put you to rest. Goodnight
forever!"
vs. Mature: "If I want to see myself, I'll just look in a mirror! Get out of
here, you eyesore!"
vs. Maxima: "A burning spirit in a body of cold steel. Allow me to extinguish
it!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "One who lives to fight, sinking into the depths of despair....
Watching a man driven to ruin never gets old."
vs. Raiden: "It feels good, right? It doesn't hurt, right? Don't you agree this
is the best way for a man to die?"
vs. Ralf: "That was a nice little dance, Mr. Dandy. Let's meet again some time."
vs. Robert: "Could you quiet down now, please? I hate men who talk too much."
vs. Ryo: "You're such a square guy. Why don't you just let yourself go? It's
much more fun!"
vs. Saiki: "If you're the head of your clan, no wonder it's about to perish.
Farewell. We shall not meet again."
vs. Shen: "Hmm.... You're more docile than I thought. I was hoping for
something a little rougher."
vs. Takuma: "You must be tired of all that fighting. Come rest with me. For all
eternity!"
vs. Terry: "Fighting for your life is so exciting! You didn't disappoint!"
vs. Vice: "Oh dear, did I overdo it? Don't worry, I'll be sure to do enough
killing for both of us!"
vs. Yuri: "A future of despair awaits you. Now...rest in peace."
vs. True Saiki: "I'll be taking my Master's power back now. Keep dreaming in the
cold of darkness!"
vs. Dark Ash: "Welcome to a world of perpetual cold! Quite appropriate for you,
isn't it?"
MAXIMA
vs. Andy: "You know exactly where to hit a person. Too bad I'm not human
anymore."
vs. Ash: "Disappointing for the guy who stole Yagami's fire. ...Or did you take
it for another purpose?"
vs. Athena: "You're gonna need stronger firepower if you ever want to take me
down."
vs. Benimaru: "Instead of focusing on the camera, try focusing on the fight,
Casanova."
vs. Billy: "I automatically store all data for everyone I fight, but I'm pretty
sure I can just delete yours."
vs. Chin: "Kung Fu, Psycho Power, they're all very hard to quantify...."
vs. Clark: "I know your mission, but.... This isn't the proper place for
warmongers. Get outta here."
vs. Daimon: "I hate Judo. Getting thrown to the ground can be fatal with my
weight."
vs. Duo Lon: "You should give up on finding that guy. No good is going to come
of it. That's my gut feeling."
vs. Elisabeth: "Your mysterious power makes for interesting data, but your
combat skill is quite poor."
vs. Hwa Jai: "You lack the dignity to be a champion. As for the current
champion? Uh.... No comment."
vs. Iori: "You'll never beat Kusanagi if you don't even get along with your own
team!"
vs. EX Iori: "Your flames, Kusanagi's, Ash Crimson's, my partner's.... I can't
tell them apart! Quite fascinating...."
vs. Joe: "You've got guts, I like that. But it's important to know when to quit
too."
vs. K': "If that wasn't you going easy on me just now, partner, then you're
getting too careless."
vs. Kensou: "Don't get so angry just because you lost, buddy. ...Maybe that's
why you lost, you know?"
vs. Kim: "At least stop making speeches when you lose. All it does is undermine
your point and make you look bad."
vs. King: "You might be able to beat me...if this was a drinking contest."
vs. Kula: "I'll let you off easy today. Now go home like a good girl, okay?"
vs. Kyo: "Thanks to my partner, I happen to know a bit about that fire of yours,
so it was easy to deal with you."
vs. EX Kyo: "Easy there, don't try to get up. You're going to be in traction for
at least three months."
vs. Leona: "Tell your Commander I appreciate him taking care of our little girl
like that."
vs. Mai: "The life of a flower is way too short. You should drop out now, miss."
vs. Mature: "I was still just idling, but hey, a win's a win."
vs. Maxima: "Is this what they mean by overcoming yourself?"
vs. Mr. Karate: "Man, that was a tough fight.... I still have a lot to learn
from you martial artist types...."
vs. Raiden: "My head may be mostly machine, but yours if 100% muscle. And that's
the difference, meathead."
vs. Ralf: "You've got a lot of power for a human. But power alone isn't enough
in this business."
vs. Robert: "I wouldn't expect any less from a KOF regular. But your run ends
here. You get to watch the rest on TV."
vs. Ryo: "The last blow was unbelievably powerful. So that is how to
incorporate ki with melee attacks...."
vs. Saiki: "My data isn't the secret to winning, that's why I have my experience
and instinct to fall back on."
vs. Shen: "At this rate, you're just going to develop into a generic thug. Think
about what it is you're missing."
vs. Takuma: "Your body just took a lot of damage, so you shouldn't be trying to
suck in that gut right now, karate master."
vs. Terry: "Hey man, can we leave it at that? Otherwise I'll be forced to use
my banned weapons...!"
vs. Vice: "Unfortunately for you, my bones don't break so easily."
vs. Yuri: "Big, tough, powerful, and smart to boot! It's no wonder I won, huh?"
vs. True Saiki: "Even if I overlook your punk attitude, you still don't feel
like a big shot."
vs. Dark Ash: "I've managed to gather some very interesting data thanks to you.
Much obliged!"
MR. KARATE
vs. Andy: "Jeff is such an unlucky soul.... To think he threw away his life to
protect this worthless offspring!"
vs. Ash: "Pathetic! You're nothing but a petulant child! Your antics are no
match for my Kyokugen Style!"
vs. Athena: "The strength I pursue is beyond good and evil! You can't win as
long as you stick to trivial ideals!"
vs. Benimaru: "Pathetic! Your kicks can't harm me! Try putting some weight
behind your moves!"
vs. Billy: "Try bringing Geese next time. You alone don't cut it!"
vs. Chin: "Kung Fu is not to be underestimated.... To think an old man like
this could put up such a magnificent fight!"
vs. Clark: "You're either very lucky, or you just have some good friends. Your
skills certainly didn't carry you this far."
vs. Daimon: "You fight like you're trying to earn points.... But you should
fight like you're trying to win!"
vs. Duo Lon: "I don't care if my fists are haunted by those I have defeated! I
know what I'm getting myself into!"
vs. Elisabeth: "There is too much doubt in your punches. You will never be
able to grasp victory like that!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "You call yourself the strongest!? I almost fell asleep from
boredom!"
vs. Iori: "You cannot win with all that anger and hatred in your eyes. You are
waging a meaningless battle!"
vs. EX Iori: "Such a crude and primitive spirit.... I can't even take your
fighting style seriously."
vs. Joe: "You call that a hurricane!? My blow-dryer is stronger than that! You
should be ashamed of yourself!"
vs. K': "Do you even know what you are after? Immerse yourself in doubt, and
may you then find the light!"
vs. Kensou: "Hah! You're too wet behind the ears to fight me! Go back to your
teacher and relearn the basics!"
vs. Kim: "There is no meaning to justice without power, you say? You don't
even have the strength to say that!"
vs. King: "You did not lose because you're a woman.... You lost because you
are weak!"
vs. Kula: "Begone from here, child! This is not a place for helpless young
girls!"
vs. Kyo: "Hmph.... With you as a descendant, the Kusanagi Clan is pretty much
done for!"
vs. EX Kyo: "Some places can't be reached just with quick wits and
discipline. Do you have what it takes to go there?"
vs. Leona: "Age and gender aren't important in battle. What matters is
whether you're strong or weak."
vs. Mai: "You intend to carry on the legacy of the Shiranui Clan like that!?
Hanzo must be rolling in his grave!"
vs. Mature: "Your desire to kill seems genuine.... But your skills are
laughable!"
vs. Maxima: "Even a body of steel is like a bundle of straw to my fists! I
will shatter you with a single blow!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "You are still only halfway there.... Keep going until you
reach the top! Never falter!"
vs. Raiden: "That's the problem with pro wrestlers.... You shouldn't have
attempted to take my strikes!"
vs. Ralf: "You should be glad you got to taste defeat. The unlucky ones don't
even live that long."
vs. Robert: "That is the extent of your Kyokugen? Unless you master 'Haoh
Shikou Ken', you will never beat me!"
vs. Ryo: "Even if you master Haou Shoukou Ken you will never beat me! You must
know true suffering first!"
vs. Saiki: "Attack me as many times as you want. I will punch a hole through
your false confidence!"
vs. Shen: "You seem to have put your life at stake before.... However, you are
still not skilled enough to beat me!"
vs. Takuma: "The bodies of many strong men lie piled up behind me! I shall not
let anyone block my path!"
vs. Terry: "No! This won't do! This won't do at all! Sharpen your fangs and try
again!"
vs. Vice: "You rely solely on force and momentum. You aren't even in the same
league as I am."
vs. Yuri: "Hah! You dare to lecture me on martial arts!? Go back to the basics
or just give up entirely!"
vs. True Saiki: "It doesn't matter whether you're human or not! Demons stand no
chance against my fists either!"
vs. Dark Ash: "You absorb people's powers like a parasite.... How can you ever
find true power like that!?"
RAIDEN
vs. Andy: "Noisy little brat! I'll crush you like a fly! Gah ha ha!"
vs. Ash: "Think about it. How could a puny punk like you ever defeat me!?"
vs. Athena: "Hurting the babyfaces is part of my job! Feels great every time I
get booed! Gah ha ha!"
vs. Benimaru: "Seriously! I just patted you a little! I can't believe you're
even weaker than you look!"
vs. Billy: "I'm used to getting hit over the head with stuff! You didn't forget
about that, did ya, Billy?"
vs. Chin: "Once I grab you, it's over! That's the way heavyweights fight!"
vs. Clark: "You can't master pro wrestling just like that! You need to start
from the basics!"
vs. Daimon: "You have power, but you lack character! Why don't you paint your
face and try being a heel?"
vs. Duo Lon: "Fighting is about power! You can't beat me with a body like
that!"
vs. Elisabeth: "What was that supposed to be? A massage or something? I hardly
felt anything!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "Oopsie! Sorry 'bout that, Hwa! Sometimes I just lose control! Gah
ha ha!"
vs. Iori: "The toughest part of this fight was trying to convince the audience
this was a good fight!"
vs. EX Iori: "Hey, someone bring a pair of scissors! It's time to do something
about this guy's stupid bangs for good!"
vs. Joe: "I! AM! RAIDEN! King of Destruction! You're not even in the same
league!"
vs. K': "Seems your dumb flames are no match for my poison breath, huh? Gah ha
ha!"
vs. Kensou: "The secret of my strength? Aussie beef, obviously!"
vs. Kim: "How does it feel to be TAUGHT a lesson for a change, huh, Kim?"
vs. King: "What? Don't like the results? Let's go again! It won't change
anything, though! Gah ha ha!"
vs. Kula: "You should pick your fights more wisely. Some day you might get
seriously hurt."
vs. Kyo: "I don't just breathe poison, you know? I can fight fire with fire,
too! Gah ha ha!"
vs. EX Kyo: "Kim's trainings have made me lose my appetite and some of my bulk,
but I can still crush guys like you easily!"
vs. Leona: "If you really want to stop my shoulder tackle, you're gonna need to
bring a tank!"
vs. Mai: "YOU'RE number one in Japan!? Then I'm number one in the world!"
vs. Mature: "Sharpen your little claws all you want! They'll never tear
through my muscles!"
vs. Maxima: "I probably shouldn't talk, but what did you eat to get big and
heavy like that!?"
vs. Mr. Karate: "Gwa ha ha! I'll take that mask of yours as my trophy now!
That's the way these things work, buddy, so suck it up!"
vs. Raiden: "Hey, that's a pretty sweet mask you have there! Mind if I take
it?"
vs. Ralf: "Too bad, soldier boy! You thought you could win there for a second,
didn't ya?"
vs. Robert: "Those weak kicks won't work against me! Build more muscle if ya
wanna knock me down!"
vs. Ryo: "There's no way you beat Geese like that. Admit it, you're bluffing!"
vs. Saiki: "Ugh, you're just a weak little kid, as I thought. You're not even
good enough for the opening performance!"
vs. Shen: "You think you can stop my attacks? I'll knock you into next week!
Gah ha ha!"
vs. Takuma: "Those wounds.... You're Mr. Karate, right? I can see why Geese
keeps an eye on you."
vs. Terry: "That wasn't nearly enough, Terry! Let's go again and I'll go easy
on ya!"
vs. Vice: "Have you considered a career in wrestling? I could put in a good
word for you."
vs. Yuri: "C'mere, I'll sign your cast for you. You'll be the envy of the
hospital!"
vs. True Saiki: "You just don't have any flair. You're strong, but you make a
third-rate heel!"
vs. Dark Ash: "If this was the ring, you'd be booed off stage! No one wants a
heel with flashy moves that lacks power!"
RALF JONES
vs. Andy: "You should be glad this isn't war. At least you're still alive!"
vs. Ash: "It's about time you started spilling the beans, freckle boy! I'm
listening!"
vs. Athena: "Sorry about that, girlie. I guess I really don't know how to
control myself."
vs. Benimaru: "You should try having more realistic dreams, or people will
just think you're delusional."
vs. Billy: "How about joining our camp for a change? It might help improve
your personality!"
vs. Chin: "I appreciate that you're trying to help people, but you lack the
strength you need to do so."
vs. Clark: "Ugh.... That hurt, Clark! You threw to kill, didn't you?"
vs. Daimon: "The Commander once told me: martial arts is not the same as war!"
vs. Duo Lon: "Are you even enjoying your life? All you do is sulk all the
time."
vs. Elisabeth: "I don't know what your problem is, but you'll never beat me
like that, missy."
vs. Hwa Jai: "If every mission were this easy, I'd never get enough
exercise."
vs. Iori: "Just tell me you despise violence, and I'll spare you your life."
vs. EX Iori: "I'm used to working with explosives! That means I know how to
handle a guy like you, too!"
vs. Joe: "Well, at least you seem to have enough energy left to bark!"
vs. K': "I've seen hell on the battlefield! I'm not afraid of those flames of
yours!"
vs. Kensou: "Scram, kid. I don't enjoy picking on weaklings."
vs. Kim: "Man, you really need to get yourself a more flexible attitude."
vs. King: "Your kicks are sharp, but they're too light. You'll never crack my
defenses like that!"
vs. Kula: "Why is it that young people are never aware of how reckless they
are?"
vs. Kyo: "You look kinda damp, kiddo! Did your fire get put out or something?"
vs. EX Kyo: "You wanna know why you lost? Honestly, the main problem is that
you had to fight me."
vs. Leona: "I know I'm dreaming, but if only you acted a bit more girly, like
crying when you lose...."
vs. Mai: "Sorry, ninja lady! Retreat is not an option for us!"
vs. Mature: "Medic! Get this woman to a hospital! Keep her under close
surveillance!"
vs. Maxima: "These fists have stopped tanks! How does it feel to be on the
receiving end?"
vs. Mr. Karate: "This fight was like taking a napalm shower. You must've been
through hell."
vs. Raiden: "You should spend some time at our camp. You'll come out a new
man!"
vs. Ralf: "You again!? Don't you ever give up? Stop trying to copy people!"
vs. Robert: "Don't get depressed. This is just the difference between pros and
amateurs."
vs. Ryo: "I like that punch of yours! That was a fun slugfest! I almost forgot
about the mission there!"
vs. Saiki: "Heh, get the boss and the rest'll be easy. I'm taking all of you
in!"
vs. Shen: "Why don't you go back to Shanghai? I'll even pay for the postage to
mail you back!"
vs. Takuma: "I got a drill sergeant working my ass every day! You think I can
come back with a loss under my belt?"
vs. Terry: "You can play fighter a hundred times, but it still won't be the same
as war."
vs. Vice: "All that talk of crushing bones. How does that broken nose feel, eh?"
vs. Yuri: "Enough with the amateurs! Go home and watch the rest of my matches on
TV!"
vs. True Saiki: "You got away with the evidence last time but not again! You're
coming with me!"
vs. Dark Ash: "I'm used to dodging fire every day. You think I'm scared of your
projectiles?"
ROBERT GARCIA
vs. Andy: "Great fight, Andy! Your speed and fury made me break into a sweat
there!"
vs. Ash: "You're like a pyro or an arsonist, starting fires everywhere! You
should be ashamed!"
vs. Athena: "Just stand in front of the camera and smile, Athena. There, that's
a good girl."
vs. Benimaru: "Too bad. If you're a genius, so am I. And I try harder! So how
could I lose?"
vs. Billy: "Whoops, looks like I broke your precious staff.... Just send me the
bill later, and I'll take care of it."
vs. Chin: "You sure fight a lot differently from Lee! Thanks for the lesson!"
vs. Clark: "Those sunglasses look great on you! As a bonus, they help hide the
bruises!"
vs. Daimon: "Man, this time would have been better spent at my dojo practicing
with my students."
vs. Duo Lon: "Hey, I actually managed to pummel some shape into that face!
That'll be good for you!"
vs. Elisabeth: "Blanc style? Never heard of it. You should be more careful who
you mess with, huh?"
vs. Hwa Jai: "Soooo, that was the warm up, right? ...Wait. Don't tell me you
were serious."
vs. Iori: "Do you finally understand that you can't become the strongest just
because you have an attitude?"
vs. EX Iori: "I'll lend you some of my pomade, so please do something about
your hair already!"
vs. Joe: "They don't call me the 'Mightiest Tiger' for nothing, you know?"
vs. K': "You act tough, but you don't have the skill to back it up! You're
only good for a warm up!"
vs. Kensou: "So, what's going on between you and Athena? Tell me later, okay?"
vs. Kim: "It's hard to fight with such a big load on your shoulders. Don't get
crushed!"
vs. King: "Your kicks are like dynamite.... Don't teach any of this to Yuri,
okay!?"
vs. Kula: "This tournament may be too much for you, miss. Remember, THIS is
world-class fighting!"
vs. Kyo: "Man, 1800 years of procreation have really not been kind to the
Kusanagi genes...."
vs. EX Kyo: "Isn't it time you went home and lived a regular life? Training
apparently isn't doing you much good."
vs. Leona: "You're a feisty one, lady. I thought I was gonna get cut in half
there!"
vs. Mai: "You'd better not be rubbing off on Yuri! I don't ever want you
taking her shopping for clothes, you hear!?" (*)
vs. Mature: "You're definitely a looker, but your fighting style makes me
sick."
vs. Maxima: "Too slow to dodge my kicks, huh? Just give up and go home!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "I have felt your full power firsthand. ...This battle is one
I won't soon forget."
vs. Raiden: "So are those muscles just decorative or something? Try harder,
Mask Man!"
vs. Ralf: "You need to learn when to smile, man! ...Although, maybe not, with
that mug of yours."
vs. Robert: "Well, I have impersonators now! I must be getting famous!
...Wait, you're not after Yuri, are you?"
vs. Ryo: "You just keep getting better and better, Ryo. I have to train more!"
vs. Saiki: "Do you understand? You're not as strong as you say you are.
There's plenty of stronger guys at KOF."
vs. Shen: "You tryin' to play thug or outlaw or something? You're way too weak
for that."
vs. Takuma: "Man, that felt like I was being hit by a big of bricks! Today,
victory is mine though!"
vs. Terry: "I'm sure you're a veteran, but you're still not a match for me!"
vs. Vice: "It's too late this time, but in the future, you should consider who
you're facing before you start a fight."
vs. Yuri: "Yuri, I know you've got a lot of talent, but, please stop acting
silly, okay?"
vs. True Saiki: "This guy's a disaster waiting to happen! Best not let him get
close to Yuri."
vs. Dark Ash: "You call yourself a god!? What kind of a god is as weak as you
are?"
* Author's note: I don't know what 'rubbing off' means in that context...but I
definitely wanna know!
RYO SAKAZAKI
vs. Andy: "When did you become such a coward? You can do better than this,
right?"
vs. Ash: "You should start working on developing some muscle. Come along, I'll
train you!"
vs. Athena: "I think I've finally figured out how to deal with that psychic
power of yours."
vs. Benimaru: "I know there's more to you than meets the eye! I won't
underestimate you!"
vs. Billy: "Go back to Geese, and tell him this: We of the Kyokugen style are
ready to fight any time!"
vs. Chin: "Hats off to Kung Fu! It never ceases to amaze me!"
vs. Clark: "Didn't go according to your simulations, huh? Kyokugen isn't that
simple!"
vs. Daimon: "Looks like even you tried to rush to victory! But your chances
disappeared at that very moment!"
vs. Duo Lon: "You think you can stop my punches with that scrawny body? Put on
some muscle!"
vs. Elisabeth: "Tricks won't work on Kyokugen! If you want to beat me, be
prepared to sacrifice everything!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "Why do you rely on that weird medicine with your skills!? You
need to train your mind first!"
vs. Iori: "What can a fist controlled by malice do? Get a hold of yourself,
Yagami!"
vs. EX Iori: "Martial arts controls the malice within ourselves! I won't lose
to one who has given in to that malice!"
vs. Joe: "I thought I knew a bit about Muay Thai, but you gave me a run for my
money...."
vs. K': "You'll never be a fighter while being that antisocial. If you want to
get stronger, you need to open up a bit."
vs. Kensou: "I win, you lose. So what? It's what you do with the experience
that counts!"
vs. Kim: "You shouldn't be satisfied with just one victory. You need to keep
on going!"
vs. King: "Right, I'm warmed up, let's go again! You're not quitting now, are
you?"
vs. Kula: "It's good to see vigorous children! Maybe I should open a
beginner's class?"
vs. Kyo: "Isn't it too early for you to stay down? I'm sure there's some fire
left in you!"
vs. EX Kyo: "Good fight! How about joining our dojo? A change of pace might do
you some good!"
vs. Leona: "Every fighting style is a potential rival. That includes army
combat!"
vs. Mai: "Why do you hop around so much? To me, you're just leaving yourself
wide open!"
vs. Mature: "I'm not good at going easy on people. Sorry, but I can't stop
being serious."
vs. Maxima: "Going up against heavy firearms, I have no choice but to use the
Haoh Shoukou Ken!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "This isn't the kind of karate I'm looking for...but I will
use what I learned today to find my own way!"
vs. Raiden: "You're a tough man! I should get back to the dojo and practice
some more."
vs. Ralf: "You think all you need is power? Kyokugen can take more than that!"
vs. Robert: "I look forward to fighting you again. You're my one true rival,
Robert!"
vs. Ryo: "There's no point in just duplicating looks! There was no spirit in
your punches!"
vs. Saiki: "Strength, skill, luck.... Many elements decide the outcome of
battle, but you simply lack the conviction!"
vs. Shen: "You want to be stronger, huh? You should join our dojo!"
vs. Takuma: "Seriously Dad, just retire already! Losing this badly is a sign!"
vs. Terry: "It's great to fight with you or against you! I'm lucky to have you
around!"
vs. Vice: "It's a long, hard road to the top, but I don't intend to stand
still!"
vs. Yuri: "You're still not strong enough to defeat me. If you can't accept
that, then train! There's no shortcuts!"
vs. True Saiki: "Yes, you're strong. But that is all! Kyokugen won't lose to
lifeless fists!"
vs. Dark Ash: "Red or black, Kyokugen-style karate is not afraid of a handful of
flames!"
SAIKI
vs. Andy: "Stop yammering about revenge. All will be gone soon anyway. You and
all the rest of the world!"
vs. Ash: "You have none to blame but youself, Ash Crimson.... You should not
have tried to challenge a god!"
vs. Athena: "All humans will perish without any pain or despair, quietly and
peacefully. Aren't I merciful?"
vs. Benimaru: "At first I was getting sick of your narcissist attitude, but
now I think I might actually start missing this."
vs. Billy: "Well, your pretty little toy turned out to be quite useless, no?
You must feel pretty hopeless now."
vs. Chin: "Do they bury people in white in your country? Splendid! Then all
I'll need is a funeral bell!"
vs. Clark: "Everything you've created is a fraud. Before long it will all
collapse and be replaced by a new world!"
vs. Daimon: "For a former medalist, you're really stupid, aren't you? You
can't defeat me with those slow moves!"
vs. Duo Lon: "Who is this man you keep whining about!? Maybe you should try
asking Mukai. Oh, wait...."
vs. Elisabeth: "KOF isn't as bad as I thought. At the very least I get to
punch people like you into the depths of despair!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "Well, at least you are sincere in your desires. But the rest of
you are not worth the air you breathe!"
vs. Iori: "Are you angry because you lost? Do you want to kill me? I feel
great! And I'll feel great killing you as well!"
vs. EX Iori: "Do you want to know who I am? *chuckle* You should've known how
weak you are first."
vs. Joe: "So you summon storms? Was that it? Seriously? You think that was a
storm? That's hilarious!"
vs. K': "A spare Sacred Treasure? Eh, whatever. All of them will turn to ashes
soon anyway!"
vs. Kensou: "Don't you see? I'm the true savior! I'm the hero who will save the
planet from you disgusting humans!"
vs. Kim: "Didn't you say you won't let evil have its' way? What're you going to
do about it now, then?"
vs. King: "Let me see you crawl on the floor and plead for your life. Who
knows, I might even let you live!"
vs. Kula: "A modified human? So people used their science to change you into
something this utterly pathetic?"
vs. Kyo: "Life sucks for you, doesn't it? If you were born to a different
family, you wouldn't have had to fight me!"
vs. EX Kyo: "Soon...a world of peace and quiet will be upon us. A beautiful
world without humans to spoil it!"
vs. Leona: "You're neither Orochi nor human. You have no place on this planet!
Let me release you from your pain!"
vs. Mai: "A beautiful girl seeing her last moments in a sea of blood.... It's
almost comical! Why did you even try!?"
vs. Mature: "We'll use Orochi well for our future! Of course you will all cease
to exist...."
vs. Maxima: "How badly do I have to tear apart a cyborg before it dies? Let's
find out, shall we?"
vs. Mr. Karate: "Your way of life is a farce. How else could anyone stand
piling up one failure after another?"
vs. Raiden: "Hee hee, look at all that fat burn! Still it's not really a worthy
memorial pyre for the end of humankind!"
vs. Ralf: "The lives of humans aren't worth a damn. But you of all people must
know that better than anyone."
vs. Robert: "Misfortune is everywhere in this world. For you, I guess I'm the
most unfortunate thing of all!"
vs. Ryo: "Hey, you. You're in the wrong place. Garbage belongs at the dump."
vs. Saiki: "Who the heck made this lousy copy!? How could I, the master of
time, possibly be this weak!?"
vs. Shen: "You're filth. And since all humans are already filth, that makes you
the most despicable of them all."
vs. Takuma: "Look back at your life before you die. Was it worth it? It wasn't,
right? Nothing about you is worth anything!"
vs. Terry: "How does it feel to have your fangs pulled out? You're nothing but
a toothless cur now!"
vs. Vice: "'Now, return to nothing'? Very well! I'll return you, Orochi, and
human history to nothing all at once!"
vs. Yuri: "The only humans I do not have to eliminate are the ones that are
already cold and dead!"
vs. True Saiki: "My, you're an ugly one, aren't you? Do you need to mangle
yourself like that just to stand a chance?"
vs. Dark Ash: "So, do you think you're a copy of me or something? There's no
point in a simulation if you're this weak!"
SHEN WOO
vs. Andy: "Stop talking about history and tradition and just concentrate on
fighting!"
vs. Ash: "That was for setting me up like that! That's that, now let's go grab
some food!"
vs. Athena: "Little girls don't belong here! Go home and sleep, before you get
hurt!"
vs. Benimaru: "I've heard that Duo Lon respects your skill, but you weren't
even a challenge!"
vs. Billy: "Why is a guy like you working for other people? You should use
your skills to get by on your own!"
vs. Chin: "Retire already! Your heart won't last much longer, you old freak!"
vs. Clark: "The hell you speak of sounds like a resort compared to what I've
seen."
vs. Daimon: "C'mon, why don't you attack me sometime!? You're making me look
like the bad guy now!"
vs. Duo Lon: "Fights with you are always real close. I like that! Let's go
again!"
vs. Elisabeth: "I'm a nice guy, so let me give you some advice: Women should
stay the heck away!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "Just stay down. Take a break. You don't wanna get any uglier,
you understand?"
vs. Iori: "What happened to your flames? They get put out? Well, this is a
disappointment, huh?"
vs. EX Iori: "All this scratching and playing with fire. I know you're a good
street performer, but it won't work on me!"
vs. Joe: "You're the 'Man who Summons Storms'? I hardly even felt a breeze!"
vs. K': "Drop the tough act, kid. I'm tougher and more experienced than you!"
vs. Kensou: "Is that it, kiddo? I'm sure that freak teacher of yours taught you
more!"
vs. Kim: "You'll 'educate' me!? What could I learn from someone as weak as
you?"
vs. King: "It's been a long time since I had this much fun with a woman!"
vs. Kula: "Hey, where are this kid's parents? I can't take her crying anymore!"
vs. Kyo: "The best guy in Shanghai beat the best guy in Japan. That's all there
is to it!"
vs. EX Kyo: "Long story short, fighting is about being stubborn! The most
persistent guy is the winner! Easy as that!"
vs. Leona: "Eh. Women never put up enough of a fight. But I gotta say, you
weren't half bad!"
vs. Mai: "You must be tired from all that jumping around. I prepared a hospital
bed for you!"
vs. Mature: "You wanna know one of my strengths? I have absolutely no problem
hitting women!"
vs. Maxima: "That wasn't much of a fight. ...You out of gas or something?"
vs. Mr. Karate: "Ugh.... W-Wow, you ain't half bad! Heh.... He he he. It's been
a while since I felt this good!"
vs. Raiden: "Sorry! I thought I was just working over a heavy bag! I forgot you
were a person!"
vs. Ralf: "Hey, not bad for an old man like you! I have to give you credit, Army
Man!"
vs. Robert: "What, is the only thing you got going for you your face? Your
muscles need work!"
vs. Ryo: "All right! Change your hair style right now! I'm sick of people
confusing us!"
vs. Saiki: "Right, that takes care of the beating, now for the questioning part.
So, how are you connected to Ash?"
vs. Shen: "You're a curious one. Why change into a guy who has so many
enemies?"
vs. Takuma: "It's too early to go to sleep, old man! Just one more round, it'll
be fun!"
vs. Terry: "You're the 'Legendary Wolf'!? That's a much better name than you
deserve."
vs. Vice: "You fight like crazy! You're more of a man than most guys I know!"
vs. Yuri: "You're not a true fighter yet. You need to develop your own style
first."
vs. True Saiki: "I don't know who you are, but you made a big mistake getting me
angry like this!"
vs. Dark Ash: "I don't know what's going on, and I don't care, but you're really
ticking me off!"
SIE KENSOU
vs. Andy: "Why be so careful about everything? Just let yourself go once in a
while!"
vs. Ash: "You've been ticking off a lot of people lately. It's about time your
karma bit you in the butt!"
vs. Athena: "Are you okay, Athena? I'm really sorry! You're so strong, I
couldn't hold back!"
vs. Benimaru: "Awww, it's no fun when you lose, huh, pretty boy? Look at your
face now!"
vs. Billy: "I know a little bit about handling a staff and I think you need a
lot more practice, old man!"
vs. Chin: "Hey presto! How about it, Teach? Do I have what it takes now?"
vs. Clark: "Years of training and you didn't even stand a chance. Maybe you
should quit."
vs. Daimon: "You just need to learn one skill that'll get you out of tight
spots."
vs. Duo Lon: "Hizoku, eh? I've been hearing that name a lot lately. Better ask
Teach about it."
vs. Elisabeth: "Man, you're way too serious! You'll never win with that
attitude!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "You're strong, but you're no champion. Even that boxer guy is
better than you."
vs. Iori: "Teach always says: 'Darkness never helps anyone'. You should learn
that!"
vs. EX Iori: "Who do you think I am!? I'm a Psycho Soldier! I can't lose to
people going 'Kill! Kill!' like you!"
vs. Joe: "The more the merrier, right? The more people cheering for me, the
better I fight!"
vs. K': "I know it's depressing to lose so badly, but hey, I'm strong.... Just
too strong!"
vs. Kensou: "We look and fight exactly the same. I guess my will to win was
greater."
vs. Kim: "You've worn out the meaning of the word justice. It just feels cheap
when you say it now."
vs. King: "Ouch! I may have won, but this lady sure kicked my butt all over
the place!"
vs. Kula: "Stop sulking, missy! Let's let bygones be bygones and cheer each
other on!"
vs. Kyo: "You still think you're the hero here? Get with the times, Kyo!"
vs. EX Kyo: "Come on, Kyo, you can do better than that! Look at me: I'm a
genius that still puts in his hard work!"
vs. Leona: "You're very cute too but.... Nah, Athena's still the one for me!"
vs. Mai: "Sorry, but I have to say this. Athena is both stronger and prettier
than you!"
vs. Mature: "It's so boring having to fight when you already know who's going
to win!"
vs. Maxima: "Looks like you got to gather a lot of data on your own
limitations! Good for you!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "I guess I won, but man, that was one scary old geezer! My arm
is still numb from blocking!"
vs. Raiden: "We should both stop here. I'm getting tired, and you're just
getting bruised."
vs. Ralf: "You can't hit me with swings like that! You're a bit too confident
in your toughness."
vs. Robert: "If you keep getting beaten like that, you'll lose what's left of
your fans!"
vs. Ryo: "Training other people is fine, but you shouldn't neglect your own
training!"
vs. Saiki: "I can't lose to bad guys in a place like this! I'll just keep
getting stronger and more awesome!"
vs. Shen: "Are you the one who called my teacher a monster!? ...Well, uh, I can
see why."
vs. Takuma: "Wow, my blocking arm is all bruised! You really are a Karate
Demon, man!"
vs. Terry: "If you're the 'Legendary Wolf', then beating you makes me a legend
too!"
vs. Vice: "How does being in pain feel to a sadist, Miss?"
vs. Yuri: "I think it's still a bit too early for you to pride yourself on your
Kyokugen."
vs. True Saiki: "I can see it clearly! A bright future in which Athena admires
me for my victory!"</pre><pre id="faqspan-10">
vs. Dark Ash: "Controlling time!? Stop bluffing! You couldn't even control me!"
TAKUMA SAKAZAKI
vs. Andy: "You know your own strengths and weaknesses. Stay devoted to
yourself!"
vs. Ash: "Weak! So weak! One punch is all it takes to extinguish your fire!"
vs. Athena: "Do you see your own limits now? Good. This is the start of your
real training."
vs. Benimaru: "Fool! Gifted people are everywhere! Only those who pair their
gifts with effort become truly great!"
vs. Billy: "Pathetic! This is all Geese's flunkies are capable of? Tell him to
come out himself if he wishes to defeat me!"
vs. Chin: "This age, and yet this power.... Kung Fu is truly an impressive
art...!"
vs. Clark: "Stop making excuses, you'll never defeat me. I have more experience
than you."
vs. Daimon: "Judo is a force to be reckoned with. I can see this tournament
will be tough!"
vs. Duo Lon: "Is this really all that you have? Show me the true power of the
Hizoku!"
vs. Elisabeth: "Kyokugen does not need words. It speaks through victory!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "You don't even know your own strengths. So green! So shallow!
You need training!"
vs. Iori: "There is too much hatred inside you! You should start learning
Kyokugen!"
vs. EX Iori: "You thought Kyokugen would lose to evil, boy!? Train your
spirit first, and then train your body!"
vs. Joe: "There is no blind side to my style. Even when facing a Muay Thai
fighter."
vs. K': "Your flames are sparks compared to the flames of Saisyu. Pathetic!"
vs. Kensou: "Not bad, but you're still too inexperienced. You need to study
more!"
vs. Kim: "I was actually enjoying that fight for a moment. I feel young.
Childish even!"
vs. King: "Very good! You didn't disappoint! The future is looking bright for
you!"
vs. Kula: "Girl or child, I don't hold back in battle! That is the fist of the
demon, the path I walk!"
vs. Kyo: "You're the successor to the Kusanagi style? Saisyu must be pretty
disappointed with you."
vs. EX Kyo: "Now that you know how green you are, you should join my dojo!
Don't worry, I have Saisyu's permission!"
vs. Leona: "If you hate looking at blood so much, why come here in the first
place?"
vs. Mai: "Is this all there is to the Shiranui style? Your ancestors must be
ashamed!"
vs. Mature: "Your claws may be sharp, but they don't stand a chance against my
Kyokugen!"
vs. Maxima: "A true Kyokugen fighter can cut through steel! Do you understand
that now?"
vs. Mr. Karate: "Do you not understand why I sealed that mask? An obsession
with strength corrodes the body!"
vs. Raiden: "You only rely on your bulk and brute strength. You'll never win
like that."
vs. Ralf: "I see you don't just fight from the drills and manuals. But you're
still not good enough to defeat me!"
vs. Robert: "Do you see what true karate is now? Stay devoted, Robert!"
vs. Ryo: "There's only a small margin between you and me, Ryo! Think about what
that is!"
vs. Saiki: "You won't win if you are obsessed with strength. Stop and reflect
upon your life for a moment!"
vs. Shen: "You seem to rely on your youthful spirit alone. But, still, it's not
bad!"
vs. Takuma: "You are merely copying form. You lack the necessary spirit!"
vs. Terry: "Jeff must be proud to have a son strong enough to avenge him!"
vs. Vice: "You fight to kill. You'll never defeat a true martial artist like
that."
vs. Yuri: "Haven't you learned anything!? You don't even understand the essence
of Kyokugen!"
vs. True Saiki: "I praise you for cornering me! But fists filled with malice
will not bring me down!"
vs. Dark Ash: "You are consumed by malice.... Your body and spirit need more
training!"
TERRY BOGARD
vs. Andy: "Fighting you never gets old! You're my best rival in the world,
little brother!"
vs. Ash: "Sorry, kid! Looks like I got too serious! If you don't like it, you
can always challenge me again!"
vs. Athena: "I study with a Kung Fu master, missy! I can read your every move!"
vs. Benimaru: "Man, you're always so self-conscious! Sorry, but I'm outta
here! Later!"
vs. Billy: "If you have trouble accepting defeat, feel free to try again! I'll
take you on any time, Billy!"
vs. Chin: "I shoulda asked earlier, but are you a friend of Master Tung's? If
you are, I'm really sorry."
vs. Clark: "Sorry, but today I just can't be beat! It'll be a straight shot to
victory for me!"
vs. Daimon: "I'm down for a rematch anytime! Hell, I wouldn't mind going at it
again right now. How about it?"
vs. Duo Lon: "You just let your guard down there. You didn't think you could
beat me like that, did ya?"
vs. Elisabeth: "I don't know what your problem is, but just worrying won't
help! Why don't you try taking a chance?"
vs. Hwa Jai: "Your Muay Thai is a lot different from Joe's.... I had fun with
you though!"
vs. Iori: "I was able to win because I had something to believe in! Do you
have anything, Yagami!?"
vs. EX Iori: "Why don't you look back? There has to be a time before you met
Kyo when you fought without hatred."
vs. Joe: "That was nothing like you, Joe. Are you partying too hard in
Thailand?"
vs. K': "Wanna go into overtime, buddy? Your fists are telling me you haven't
admitted defeat yet!"
vs. Kensou: "Maybe you should go on a journey. Traveling may give you some
experience."
vs. Kim: "You need to try simply enjoying the fight as a martial artist
sometime, Kim...."
vs. King: "Why don't you invite Mary to join your team? She's actually pretty
shy, so she wouldn't ask herself."
vs. Kula: "Uh oh, you okay, little miss? I'll make it up to you by buying you
something tasty at Richard's place."
vs. Kyo: "Your flames are starting to smolder. You need to fight with more
freedom!"
vs. EX Kyo: "It's not like you to be nervous, man! Anyway, I look forward to
fighting you again! See ya!"
vs. Leona: "What? You're giving up already? In South Town, this is just how we
say 'hello'!"
vs. Mai: "You're as strong as ever, Mai. I'm starting to feel sorry for my
little brother...."
vs. Mature: "My dad always told me to watch out for women like you. So I'll be
going now."
vs. Maxima: "That was a great fight! I welcome heated matches like that
anytime!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "Wait, has Jeff fought you before? That means.... I sort of
got to fight him through you."
vs. Raiden: "Oooh.... So Kim got to you too, huh? I'm feelin' for ya, man.
Good luck!"
vs. Ralf: "I was raised on the streets, so I'm used to fighting tough guys,
even if I'm taking on the army!"
vs. Robert: "Hey! You okay with losing all the time, handsome? If you don't
like that, then come and get me!"
vs. Ryo: "You and I go way back, and you're still just as good as ever! Nice
fight!"
vs. Saiki: "I don't want to say this but...it seems fighting you didn't help
make me any stronger. Sorry!"
vs. Shen: "If you don't like being on the floor, stand up! That's how I grew
stronger!"
vs. Takuma: "What a heavy hitter! I can see you're still going strong! Thanks
for the fun!"
vs. Terry: "Thanks! You helped me show everyone that I can be imitated, but
I'll never be duplicated!"
vs. Vice: "Still as foul-mouthed as ever. Maybe you'll get along with Yamazaki,
though."
vs. Yuri: "Not so sure about your direction, but I see you're not slacking off!
You're always full of surprises!"
vs. True Saiki: "See why I have a perfect attendance record? KOF is a tougher
tournament than you think!"
vs. Dark Ash: "You 'rule time', yet you lost to me? That power was all in your
mind."
VICE
vs. Andy: "Which bones shall I break next? Do you have a preference?"
vs. Ash: "Your blood tastes different.... I'll squeeze every last drop out of
you!"
vs. Athena: "You cry like only a idol can. You've got a beautiful crying
voice."
vs. Benimaru: "How are you feeling, lover boy? Must be hard to talk without any
teeth, huh?"
vs. Billy: "I snapped your little toy along with your bones. You still want
more? You've got guts, I admit."
vs. Chin: "You must be tired of life by now! I'm here to make it all go away!"
vs. Clark: "The reaper is coming to get you now. Any last words, Mr. Cool Guy?"
vs. Daimon: "Seeing a huge man like you get tossed around just never gets old!"
vs. Duo Lon: "What a lovely sight! A foppish man drenched in his own blood!"
vs. Elisabeth: "You're far more stupid than I imagined. You think you can
defeat me, human?"
vs. Hwa Jai: "I like that sound! Shall we go on? You still have some unbroken
bones left, right?"
vs. Iori: "What's wrong? You're getting sloppy. You think you can beat Kusanagi
like that, Yagami!?"
vs. EX Iori: "This is no good, Yagami! Get up now, so I can pound some sense
back into you!"
vs. Joe: "That breeze of yours feels amazing. I don't know why you call it a
storm."
vs. K': "You think those imitation flames can harm me? Keep dreaming!"
vs. Kensou: "Live in pain, or die right now? Which will it be? I'm open to
either option!"
vs. Kim: "Are you really happy just going on and on about evil and justice?
That's pretty sad!"
vs. King: "What a lovely death scream. Let's meet again in our next life!"
vs. Kula: "Are you cold? Here, I'll hold you.... And crush you in my arms!"
vs. Kyo: "Are you going to cry to your daddy? Go ahead. I'll just kill you
both!"
vs. EX Kyo: "Right, that takes care of the son. Now for that piece of filth
father of yours."
vs. Leona: "What does it take to wake you up, girl? Do I need to hit you
harder?"
vs. Mai: "Is that blood bath comfortable for you? Soak in it as long as you
like!"
vs. Mature: "You're actually not that reliable, you know that? Will I have to
do everything myself?"
vs. Maxima: "Have some patience, I'll turn you into a hunk of scrap soon
enough!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "Not bad for a human, I guess. I had fun at least. ...Are you
even listening!?"
vs. Raiden: "Humans really like to shoot themselves in the foot! Looking at
your lard, I'd say you're a prime example!"
vs. Ralf: "Does it hurt? Lucky you! That means you're still alive!"
vs. Robert: "You know what you signed up for. Don't start crying about the
consequences now!"
vs. Ryo: "You dare call yourself a 'dragon' in front of the Orochi Hakkeshu!?"
vs. Saiki: "You can still breathe with your body completely crushed?
Impressive! I'll just leave you to suffer then!"
vs. Shen: "Lick my feet and bark, mongrel! Then I'll kill you painlessly!"
vs. Takuma: "Train yourself all you want. There are limits to how powerful a
a human can become!"
vs. Terry: "A wolf!? You!? More like a mongy cur! C'mon, bark! I want to hear
you whimper!"
vs. Vice: "Is this one of Kagura's dumb tricks? You'll never beat me with a
gimmick!"
vs. Yuri: "Do you get it now, airhead? This is the difference between a girl
and a woman!"
vs. True Saiki: "I want it all back! All the power of Orochi you stole will be
returned!"
vs. Dark Ash: "Do you want to crawl out of here, or be put to sleep now? It's
your choice!"
YURI SAKAZAKI
vs. Andy: "I gotta admit, it's just like Mai says, you really are handsome!
But I'd prefer someone a bit taller...."
vs. Ash: "You shouldn't worry your friends! Y'know, that gloomy guy and that
punk!"
vs. Athena: "I shoulda asked sooner, but can I have your autograph? My
friend's a big fan of yours!"
vs. Benimaru: "You're the undisputed master of falling over with style and
elegance!"
vs. Billy: "Big brother fighting for his little sister.... The situation is
similar, but why is your life so different...?"
vs. Chin: "We should respect our elders. I guess that's not too convincing,
considering that I just knocked one out...."
vs. Clark: "If war is so tough and I'm just playing fighter, what are you
doing? Playing loser?"
vs. Daimon: "No, I wasn't lucky, and no, this wasn't just a fluke! This was
all me!"
vs. Duo Lon: "I'm used to training with my father. I'm not easily scared of
strong people."
vs. Elisabeth: "Ugh.... My eyes still hurt.... Fighting this lady is not so
bad; it's the aftermath that's a pain!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "Why don't you try and learn some Muay Thai from King? Yours
needs work."
vs. Iori: "You're even more cold than usual. Is that because you lost your
flames?"
vs. EX Iori: "You talk a lot, but you're just taking your anger out on
others, aren't you? Some man you are."
vs. Joe: "'King of Fighters: The Legend of Yuri'.... You think that'd be a
good movie?"
vs. K': "Don't you think you're being too stubborn? Come on, just relax and
enjoy yourself a bit!"
vs. Kensou: "Hey, I train hard too! I just don't make a big deal of it!"
vs. Kim: "I know guiding disciples is hard, but you're practically
brainwashing them!"
vs. King: "I'm sure I can learn a thing or two from your lovely footwork!"
vs. Kula: "You should consider joining our all-girl team someday!"
vs. Kyo: "Unless you master Haow-ken -- er, Haoh Shoukou Ken -- you'll never
beat me!"
vs. EX Kyo: "You can do better than that, right, Kyo!? You know you shouldn't
underestimate your opponents at KOF!"
vs. Leona: "...It's so hard to tell if my moves are even affecting you
because you're so emotionless."
vs. Mai: "This is our time to shine! Give me all you've got, Mai!"
vs. Mature: "Hey, you're wearing pants now! Are you starting to get thunder
thighs or something?"
vs. Maxima: "You won't win just because you're bigger. I'm used to fighting
with that handicap!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "Ow ow ow.... I'm still your daughter, you know!? I guess
this is the strenness of martial arts...."
vs. Raiden: "No wonder you lost with that mask on. Can you even see when you
wear that?"
vs. Ralf: "Compared to Leona, I get the feeling the men around me aren't that
bad...."
vs. Robert: "Robert, you were holding back on me, weren't you? That was too
easy!"
vs. Ryo: "So, isn't it about time you acknowledged my strength?"
vs. Saiki: "You act like you're tough, but you ain't all that. You should try
and learn some modesty."
vs. Shen: "Come on, you're not even half as strong as my brother!"
vs. Takuma: "How about it, Dad? I hope you'll stop meddling in my business
now?"
vs. Terry: "I wonder who's stronger, you or Ryo? Oh well, you're both no match
for me."
vs. Vice: "You should try to be more mellow sometimes!"
vs. Yuri: "You've got the looks down, but you're going to need better instincts
to copy me."
vs. True Saiki: "You're related to that Magaki guy, right? You've got to be!
You're pink!"
vs. Dark Ash: "Do you have a split personality...? Well, that shock I just gave
your brain should cure it!"
TRUE SAIKI
vs. Andy: "Hmmm.... Not bad for a human. Right? You did well. So die, right
now!"
vs. Ash: "Stop resisting, Ash! You know what happens when you keep resisting,
right?"
vs. Athena: "You humans can't even transcend time, so what could you possibly
do against me!?"
vs. Benimaru: "Can I just ask you a serious question? What exactly did you
intend to do against me?"
vs. Billy: "I may have the power to control time, but that does not mean I can
just waste it on people like you!"
vs. Chin: "You've lead an empty, meaningless existence and now I shall end it!"
vs. Clark: "'Tactical retreat'! The perfect phrase for losers!"
vs. Daimon: "As unmovable as a mountain, huh? Well, you sure aren't moving any
more now!"
vs. Duo Lon: "You want to know where that man is? Then die without knowing, as
punishment for bothering me!"
vs. Elisabeth: "It's a good thing you're stupid, dumb, and incompetent, because
now you'll get what you wished for!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "Pathetic worms! Stop trying to get in my way! There's a limit to
my mercy!"
vs. Iori: "Rejoice, for your days of fearing the shadow of Orochi are over!"
vs. EX Iori: "I was told you carry the blood of Orochi.... Too bad it's bound
up in a miserable pile of flesh."
vs. Joe: "Muay Thai champion belts must come cheap, huh? I mean, even you have
one!"
vs. K': "An artificial man, born from delusions. Your very existence is a sad
joke."
vs. Kensou: "Who did you bribe to get this far? You're too weak to fight me!"
vs. Kim: "How does your 'justice' look when you're face down on the ground,
huh?"
vs. King: "Time is cruel. Especially to women, don't you think? But I control
time. For example, your time is up!"
vs. Kula: "He he he.... Sorry, did I break your dolly? Well, at least it was
fun for a while."
vs. Kyo: "I guess that was to be expected from the sword that barely beat
Orochi."
vs. EX Kyo: "This is the power of a Sacred Treasure!? Mukai and Magaki really
were pathetic to lose to this...."
vs. Leona: "Not Orochi, not human.... The only place you belong is the
afterlife! Why don't you understand that!?"
vs. Mai: "So Ninjitsu is about dancing around in skimpy clothing? Pathetic."
vs. Mature: "At least you can die with the comfort of knowing that Orochi's
power will not go unused!"
vs. Maxima: "You traded your humanity for data and an iron body, to learn
what? That you can't possibly defeat me?"
vs. Mr. Karate: "You have shown me the potential of human strength. Now I'm
certain there's no point in mankind's existence!"
vs. Raiden: "BWA HA HA HA! The roast pork is ready! Shall we open some
champagne?"
vs. Ralf: "No matter how much time you've spent on the battlefield, you're
still human."
vs. Robert: "What shall I inscribe on your tombstone? 'Here lies Robert. He
fought okay.' That work for you?"
vs. Ryo: "No need to be pessimistic. You will all die soon anyway!"
vs. Saiki: "So, you're another possibility, eh? I better remember that I won't
get infinite chances!
vs. Shen: "You're strong...for a human. But I'm way out of your league."
vs. Takuma: "If only you'd been weaker, all you'd have to do was cower in
despair!"
vs. Terry: "If you were a real wolf, you would've sensed death the moment you
saw me."
vs. Vice: "Even if you'd brought the Four Kings, you wouldn't have been able to
stop me!"
vs. Yuri: "The gong has sounded, but we're not done yet! Let's start the main
course now!"
DARK ASH
vs. Andy: "You vermin aren't even worth dominating! You'll be erased alongside
the timeline itself!"
vs. Ash: "The punishment for opposing your creator will be quite severe, Ash
Crimson!"
vs. Athena: "Sing! Sing until your lungs wither and your throat can only spurt
blood!"
vs. Benimaru: "Tell me, did you really think you stood a chance with that
street performance?"
vs. Billy: "I was told only the strong humans gather at KOF. So what are you
doing here?"
vs. Chin: "Hey gramps! How old are you now? 80? You sure don't have much to
show for it!"
vs. Clark: "You'll be promoted two ranks. You know, for death in the line of
duty."
vs. Daimon: "Rejoice! Your pain and fear will soon end, along with the world
you built!"
vs. Duo Lon: "Your memories and mankind's entire history shall be wiped away!
An aeon where time turns to ash is here!"
vs. Elisabeth: "This is the power to control time! Behold, despair and regret!
This is your punishment!"
vs. Hwa Jai: "That's good! I like how you hit the ground there! You're an
excellent actor!"
vs. Iori: "Too bad you're not using the power of Orochi. Too much for a mere
human?"
vs. EX Iori: "He he he.... Cry! Scream! And die! The perfect ending to a
pathetic loser like you!"
vs. Joe: "Are you done? Then die already. You're wasting matter that could be
comprising useful things."
vs. K': "The remnants of a man's failed dream to become a god. That's all you'll
ever be."
vs. Kensou: "I feel a strange power emanating from you.... Oh well, I have no
need for it now anyway."
vs. Kim: "All that you've taught me is how pathetic and weak your justice is."
vs. King: "So, what does despair feel like? It's something I'll never feel, so
I'm curious."
vs. Kula: "I have to admit, you've got guts, kid. Stepping on the lion's tail
like that!"
vs. Kyo: "How's it feel to be consumed by flames for once? 1800 years of time is
nothing to me."
vs. EX Kyo: "That purifying power of yours looks like trouble. I'd best make
sure to take care of it right away."
vs. Leona: "Dying, in a way, is the easiest way out. ...But I won't let you die
that quickly!"
vs. Mai: "That was...altogether not so bad, I guess. For a party clown, that
is."
vs. Mature: "The power of Orochi belongs to me now! Stop trying to resist!"
vs. Maxima: "I was just about to get sick of crushing humans. Breaking a cyborg
is fun too!"
vs. Mr. Karate: "You should be glad you got to die so soon. This way you won't
have to see your family suffer!"
vs. Raiden: "Pig, cow.... You'll be a roast either way!"
vs. Ralf: "You say you've seen hell in battle? Well the real thing is where
you'll be going soon!"
vs. Robert: "Geez.... If that's all you've got, why even be here in the first
place!?"
vs. Ryo: "Do you need some more time to wallow in self-pity? Too bad, there's
no time left!"
vs. Saiki: "Of course I won! Not only do I have your powers, but I have Ash
Crimson's as well!"
vs. Shen: "Those eyes are what I hate about you. Get out of here before I get
really angry!"
vs. Takuma: "I spared you your life, so you'd better make the most of what's
left of it."
vs. Terry: "I have finally made you a legend in name and in reality. You can
thank me later!"
vs. Vice: "Thank you for showing me your refreshing hideousness! It was
wonderful!"
vs. Yuri: "You should stay out of the fighting business.... You'll live a lot
longer."

CUTSCENES/ENDINGS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*BEHIND THE GORGEOUS STAGE* (After 3 matches)
(Rose Bernstein is shown speaking to a crowd of reporters and camera flashes)
Rose: "As you all know, this installment of the King of Fighters tournament is
hosted courtesy of the Bernstein family. We have constructed a lavish
new stadium just for this year's tournament. I want the finals to be
the most glamorous ever."
(The image is shown on multiple TV monitors, as several somber figures witness
the event)
Rose: "The budget? Money is not a concern for this event."
(Botan, the woman who was revealed to be manipulating Rose at the end of the
events in KOF XI, is shown dangling some strings in her fingers, as more shady
silhouettes linger in the background)
Botan: "Master Mukai broke the seal, and Master Magaki located the energy of
Orochi. This stadium was constructed on the surface above it. The
preparations to open the gate will soon be complete. ...It seems we
made it just in time."
(Botan motions her hand slightly. Next scene has a long hallway with pillars
where Mukai, main villain of KOF 2003, kneels in front of a throne where Saiki
is lying on. The whole scene has a bloodish red hue to it)
Mukai: "All that remains is to gather the Three Sacred Treasures and watch the
tournament unfold...."
Saiki: "Mukai...was it? You all really are incompetent fools."
Mukai: "Botan and the others did well. Any failures are my own fault."
(Saiki lying across the throne contemplating his fingernails)
Saiki: "Magaki's dead, Shion is missing, and there's such a small window that
we only have one shot. ...Just---"
(Close up on Saiki's face gazing at his hand)
Saiki: "Die."
Mukai: "......"
Saiki: "As meager as your lives are, they will still be of some use to me.
C'mon, die."
Mukai: "...Thank you for your inspiring words of encouragement, Milord. We
are ready for action."
Saiki: "...Hmph."
(A glowing red sphere is shown)
*SAIKI'S APPEARANCE* (After 6 matches)
(Rose appears on the main screen of the stadium, as fireworks go off and
confetti litters the air)
Rose: "Congratula---"
Player: "Huh!? What's going on...? Has time stopped!?"
(Mukai jumps into the stage, followed shortly by the rest of his clan.
Everyone is wearing the same kind of cloak. All that I can recognize are
Botan and the two kids that stole Heidern's eyepatch at the end of KOF XI)
Mukai: "It's been a while, humans...."
Player: "Mukai! So it WAS you! What are you up to?"
Saiki: "*sigh*.... You people...."
(Saiki now appears in front of all of them)
Saiki: "Didn't I tell you that we don't have any time to waste!? Just shut up
and take your positions, you useless idiots."
All: "Yes, Milord!"
(The whole clan disappears with the exception of Mukai)
Player: "Ash Crimson? No.... Who are you!?"
(Saiki is playing with the bangs of his hair, as Mukai still stands behind
him)
Saiki: "...And what exactly do you think YOU'RE doing?"
Mukai: "Milord, please. Allow me to handle this."
(Saiki gives a wry smile)
Saiki: "*chuckle*"
(Saiki quickly turns around. From behind, Mukai is seen shaking, and then
shriveled up to a corpse by Saiki's hand)
Mukai: "Ugh! ...Urk!"
Saiki: "Don't make me repeat myself."
Player: "What have you done!?"
Saiki: "Now then...."
(Saiki turns around again, this time his body turning black and red, and his
hair grows white and wild)
Saiki: "Sorry to keep you waiting. Now, I am going to kill you. However...."
(A far shot reveals Saiki's transformation, as the whole stage warps into a
gloomy red apocalyptic stage, where a gate emerges from the ground with 6
spheres atop of it)
Saiki: "This is all to please the so-called Orochi. It would be helpful if
each of you suffered as long as possible before you die."
Player: "No way! You're the one who's going down!"
Saiki: "Ah, that's the spirit! I'm glad you understand. You're going to make
great sacrifices. *chuckle* Anger and hatred bring out the best in
fighting spirit. They make great offerings to the will of Gaia."
(The gate slightly opens as the light envelops the now transformed Saiki)
Saiki: "Your blood, flesh, souls, everything.... I will give it all to this
Orochi!"
*ASH'S APPEARANCE* (After defeating True Saiki)
(True Saiki holds out his hand in front of the gate)
Saiki: "Yes, that's it...but it's still not enough. Struggle more! Scream
louder!"
Botan: "Milord, the gate!"
(Saiki turns to face the gate)
Saiki: "!? Why is it closing?! What's happening!?"
(Botan looks shocked as the light from the gate shines upon her)
Botan: "I-I don't know, it just started to -- What!?"
(Close shot of some of the spheres atop the gate being turned off)
Botan: "Some of the Time Spheres are gone!"
Saiki: "Ugh...."
(Saiki reverts back to his regular form)
Saiki: "Ha.... Ha ha ha.... You fools really are useless. Or.... Is this all
your doing?"
(Botan looking incredibly shocked)
Saiki: "Not bad, not bad.... I have to admi--"
(A hand is seen piercing through Saiki's chest from behind, although it seems
to be just in spirit, because his body is not affected or any wound being
visible)
Saiki: "!! Hurk! Y-You...filthy...."
(Saiki plummets to the ground, the culprit being revealed as Ash, who now
holds a glowing black flame in his hand)
Ash: "You finally let your guard down. To be honest, that was close. Aha ha
ha."
(Ash holds the flame to his chest and absorbs it. Botan is looking especially
pissed now)
Botan: "How dare you, Ash Crimson! ...You had no intention of gathering the
Treasures for us, did you!?"
(Ash fiddles with the bangs of his hair)
Ash: "You're all going to slowly die off. It'll take several hundred years,
just like it was in history. 'All's right with the world'. Ahah...."
(Close up on Ash's wide-open eye)
Ash: "Ungh!"
(A black shadow covers Ash's face. Ash's body, covered in shadows and black
flames is now seen bending over in front of the gate)
Saiki: "Ah.... Splendid. I can still make it, using this body...."
(A white explosion emanates from Ash, covering the whole stadium)
Botan: "Milord, what's.... AHHHHHHHH!"
Saiki: "I can still make it.... Ha ha.... Aha ha ha...."
*ASH-LIKE DENOUEMENT* (After defeating Dark Ash)
(Dark Ash, surrounded in black aura, stands in the middle of the empty void)
Elisabeth: "Ash...! Can you hear me? It's me, Elisabeth!"
(Close-up of Dark Ash's face, engulfed in black aura)
Ash: "......"
(Image of Saiki, standing in the background, and Ash, standing in the
foreground, back turned towards the screen, appears on the right, aside Dark
Ash. Both appear to be naked)
Saiki: "It's over, Ash. I know everything there is to know about you....
Because I'm your ancestor, your master, and...a god."
(Dark Ash now stands before the open gates)
Saiki: "Now, enter the gate and return to 'our' era."
(Ash and Saiki now reverse positions with Dark Ash now on the right)
Saiki: "We can restart as many times as we need. No matter how long it takes
to prepare in our era, as long as we control this gate that connects
the eras.... We can do anything. The future is ours to write!"
(Close-up of Dark Ash's face, engulfed in black aura)
Saiki: "Come on.... Go through the gate."
(The gate doors begin to close)
Elisabeth: "The gate's closing! Ash! What's wrong!?"
Saiki: "...Go on."
(Back to naked Ash and Saiki with Dark Ash)
Saiki: "This is no time to joke, Ash Crimson! Enter the gate! What's wrong
with you!? Hurry up and --"
(The gate starts to close more and more)
Saiki: "Th-The Gate! The GAAAAAAAAATE!"
(The gate finally closes and vanishes, leaving Dark Ash alone once again)
Saiki: "You idiot.... Do you have any idea what you've done?"
(Dark Ash looks at his hand while still covered in black aura. The next
dialogue exchange takes place with Saiki's lines in the background and
Ash's lines in the foreground)
Saiki: "You've condemned us both to a fate worse than death...."
Ash: "You just said...."
Saiki: "A time paradox...."
Ash: "Are you stupid? You don't know anything. As a matter of fact...."
Saiki: "If my past and future contradict, what happens to me? What happens to
my existence...."
Ash: "I actually like this world."
Saiki: "No...."
(Dark Ash starts to vanish as the black aura dissipates)
Saiki: "No.... NO! I don't want to die! I don't want to...cease to exist....
Urgh.... GWAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!"
Ash: "Au revoir."
Elisabeth: "Ash!"
(Ash appears again, back to normal, but still wearing his black clothes)
Ash: "I messed up, Betsy. I was supposed to end this cleanly."
Elisabeth: "What do you mean?"
Ash: "I 'erased' my ancestor, so most likely...."
(Ash sad face)
Ash: "...I never existed either."
Elisabeth: "Why? Why did you do this? No.... I came back for you. I came to
bring you back!"
(Ash slowly fades away)
Ash: "I'm sorry, Betty. I'm out of ti--"
(Back to the award ceremony at the stadium, with Rose Bernstein still speaking
on the giant monitor, as the camera pans up to see the top of the building and
the fireworks in the night sky)
Rose: "Congratulations! The Bernstein family is truly honored to have hosted
such a grand tournament. We shall never forget those who fought to take
hold of glory, and.... The King of Fighters!"
JAPAN TEAM (Kyo/Benimaru/Daimon)
(A column of light is seen shooting out from inside of the coliseum. It is
revealed that Kyo and Iori are facing each other amidst a sea of crimson and
purple flames. Next scene has a female reporter holding a microphone, cowering
before the battle in the press area. Daimon, with his arms crossed, and
Benimaru, with his arms on his hips, witness the fight as well)
Staff: "Everyone, stay clear! Roll the cameras! This way!"
Reporter: "Th-This just in! Iori Yagami has just crashed the interview of Team
Japan!"
(Back to the Kyo & Iori faceoff, a close-up of Iori's face appears onscreen)
Iori: "Angry that I spoiled your little victory celebration, Kyo?"
(Close-up of Kyo's face)
Kyo: "...Victory? What victory?"
(Silhouette of Ash flashes on screen)
Ash: "(Aha ha ha ha ha.)"
Kyo: "For some reason, I'm not in the mood. Thanks for saving me from this
boring event."
(Kyo frowns)
Kyo: "...Yagami, you know something?"
(Iori frowns, then smiles)
Iori: "Sure I do. I know that today's your last."
(Kyo smiles)
Kyo: "Heh.... If you say so. I needed a way to vent this anger. So bring it on!"
Iori: "I'll escort you to hell. But from there on, you're on your own!"
(Kyo and Iori attack each other with flame-covered fists)
Kyo: "OOOOOOOOOOOOH!"
Iori: "DIE!"
(Screen turns white)
Ash: "All's right with the world.... Aha ha ha."
FATAL FURY TEAM (Terry/Andy/Joe)
(Terry, Andy, and Joe celebrate with their arms in the air in the coliseum)
Terry: "YEAH!"
Joe: "I rule!"
Andy: "We did it! It was a long fight."
(Mai runs in and hugs Andy as Joe watches)
Mai: "Andy! Congratulations!"
Andy: "All right!"
(Blue Mary runs in and nudges Terry as Joe watches)
Mary: "Hey, handsome! Congratulations!"
Terry: "OK!"
(A mysterious figure dressed in a pink leotard runs in and hugs Joe as he seems
pleased)
???: "Joe, you're amazing! I love you, honey!"
Joe: "Oh yeah!"
(Joe looks down at the person with a puzzled look)
Joe: "...Wait, who're you --"
(It turns out to be Okama, the person who Joe rescued in KOF XI, with female
makeup and pouting his lips. Joe is in shock)
Joe: "WHA!?"
Okama: "Je t'aime. My lovely Joe!"
(Joe runs like a soul out of hell away from the efusive Okama)
Joe: "NOOOOOOOOOO WAYYYYY!"
Okama: "Hooo ho ho ho ho ho ho! I've got my sights set on you, my darling!"
(Screen turns to black as some kisses are heard)
Joe: "Aaaaaarrggh!"
(Joe looks like a corpse filled with kisses as Okama holds his arm. Terry and
Mary are laughing themselves off, as Mai and Andy look concerned)
Okama: "Tee hee! I gotcha! You're all mine now!"
Joe: "A bad dream.... This has gotta be a dream...."
(A heart symbol closes in on Joe and Okama)
Okama: "Oh yes, this is a dream come true! Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho!"
Joe: "Must...wake...up.... Gotta end this dream...."
ART OF FIGHTING TEAM (Ryo/Robert/Takuma)
(At a press conference, King, Yuri, and Ryo stand in the foreground, while
Robert and Takuma stand right behind them. Why King and Yuri are there is...
beyond me)
Interviewer: "Thank you. We now understand the resolve the Kyokugen team put
into this tournament! Now, I would like to interview those close
to the team."
(Camera zooms in a little on Yuri)
Interviewer: "First, Miss Yuri Sakazaki."
Yuri: "Hi."
Interviewer: "As a KOF regular, what did you think of them?"
(Robert nods and there is a shot where he is seen taking out a ring, although it
is not visible to anybody)
Yuri: "I think everyone did really well!"
Interviewer: "I see. Now, if I may ask you a personal question."
(While this is going on, Takuma looks constantly at both Robert and the ring he
has pulled out)
Interviewer: "What's your ideal type of guy?"
(Takuma looks shocked when he comes to realize what's about to go down)
Yuri: "Ummmm, let me think...."
(Takuma is now seething mad)
Interviewer: "Anyone close by?"
Robert: "Y-Yuri...."
(Takuma gives Robert a cheap shot from behind as Robert's face expresses his
agony and throws a fit. King seems to be confused at what's happening back
there)
Yuri: "A guy who's stronger than Dad, I guess?"
Interviewer: "I see. And, what would your ideal husband be like?"
(Yuri is pensive while Robert is swallowing the pain)
Yuri: "Hmm.... Let's see...."
Takuma: "*Ahem* Yuri, you're too young to...."
(Now Robert cheap shots Takuma as he leans back in pain)
Takuma: "Ngh...!"
(From here on out, Robert and Takuma exchange shots in the background)
Yuri: "That's a tough one. I think they would have to be someone who was nice
and polite.... Oh, I know! Someone like King!"
(King responds by slapping Yuri on the back of her head. Yuri rubs her head in
joking fashion)
Yuri: "I'd love it if she became part of the family!"
King: "Huh!? Uh, I...."
(King's face turns red as Yuri has a naughty expression on her face)
Yuri: "Ooh, you're blushing, King!"
King: "Y-Yuri, stop saying things like that! Y-You're going to give people the
wrong idea!"
Ryo: "Living at the dojo isn't so bad, King! You can practice anytime!"
Yuri: "Sooo, c'mon, why don't you say yes already?"
(King's face gets even more red and angrier)
King: "Say yes to what!? S-Stop pressuring me!"
(Robert and Takuma look at each other, looking exhausted and giving each other
sarcastic grins)
Takuma: "What's wrong, Robert...? You look rather pale...."
Robert: "What about you, Dad...? Is your scar hurting...?"
Takuma: "...S-Since when did I become your...father?"
Robert: "Ha ha ha...."
Takuma: "He he he...."
Ryo: "Ha ha ha! It's teamwork like this that makes Kyokugen strong!"
YAGAMI TEAM (Iori/Mature/Vice)
(The glowing "9" Orochi symbol spins and zooms in towards the screen. The eye of
Orochi opens up. The Orochi symbol is now spinning in Iori's hand)
Mature: "I knew it...."
(Mature and Vice slowly fade in on screen. They both have an eerie glow to them)
Mature: "660 years have bound Yasakani to the blood."
Vice: "So that's why the purple flame was transferred to him when he stole
Yasakani, even though he wasn't bound to the contract."
Mature: "Iori Yagami.... Is that what you really want?"
Vice: "Everything will revert back if you take Yasakani. Not just the purple
flames you lost.... But also the curse of your blood, your fate with the
Kusanagi, the contract.... Everything."
(Iori looks at them)
Iori: "I don't get you. Wasn't that your goal?"
Mature: "Forget about us. What do YOU want, Iori Yagami?"
Iori: "...Hmph."
(Iori clenches the Orochi symbol in his fist. Screen fades to black)
Iori: "Hm hm hm hm, ha ha ha ha, haaaaa ha ha ha ha!"
(Camera pans up to a bloody red sky amidst a moon eclipse)
Mature: "That's unfortunate, Iori Yagami. Or are you satisfied with this
outcome? Whatever the case, we'll never meet again...."
Vice: "Don't be so sure. On a full moon...."
Mature: "You're right. In the nightmares, we'll always be...."
ELISABETH TEAM (Elisabeth/Duo Lon/Shen)
(Black screen)
Jacques: "Are you sure you are all right, Milady?"
Elisabeth: "Yes, I'm fine now.... I was just a bit faint, that's all. Just leave
me for now. Oh, and one last thing.... Tell those two that I'm very
grateful."
Jacques: "As you wish, Milady."
(Elisabeth is seen sitting in what seems to be the interior of a coach carriage.
She looks depressed. Shen then appears on the left amidst the celebration
ceremony)
Shen: "So, how's the Lady?"
(Duo Lon appears on the right in the same scenario)
Duo Lon: "She's in the car."
Shen: "What's up with her?"
Duo Lon: "...She may look calm on the outside, but she must've been under a lot
of pressure."
Shen: "Relieved that she won the championship? That's kinda cute of her."
Duo Lon: "...I suppose so."
Shen: "Right? Well, I guess the party's over then."
(Screen fades to black. Shen appears once again on the right, sitting down and
mildy annoyed)
Shen: "...Hey."
(Duo Lon appears on the left standing, as the ceremony seems to be over now)
Duo Lon: "What?"
Shen: "What're you still standing around here for? That some sort of training?"
Duo Lon: "...You don't exactly appear to be in a hurry, either."
Shen: "I'm just basking in the glory of our victory. Don't bother me."
Duo Lon: "...I see."
(Screen fades to black. Duo Lon again appears on the right with his arms
crossed)
Duo Lon: "So you're staying?"
(Shen appears on the left again, back turned towards the screen and his hands on
his hips, looking at the star-riddled night sky)
Shen: "So what if I am?"
Duo Lon: "Haven't you had enough basking by now? Tell me why."
Shen: "...A promise."
Duo Lon: "...?"
Shen: "I feel like I made a promise."
Duo Lon: "That's an odd coincidence...."
Shen: "So you feel it too, huh?"
(Elisabeth appears in the middle, her head down)
Duo Lon: "...Yeah."
Shen: "...I thought so."
(Scene now focuses on Elisabeth, where a single tear drops from her face, and
atop Ash's hair ornament, which she is now holding. Screen now focuses on Ash's
hair ornament as the background turns white)
KIM TEAM (Kim/Hwa Jai/Raiden)
(Raiden and Hwa Jai have cutey happy faces on a bubbly pink background)
Raiden: "Kim, thanks to you, we've seen the light. Thank you so much!"
Hwa Jai: "We'll spread your ideals of justice throughout the pro wrestling and
Muay Thai worlds!"
(Kim looks placidly at the criminal duo, all smiles. They seem to be inside an
airport terminal)
Kim: "You two are both such quick learners.... I couldn't be more proud of you!"
Raiden: "Don't be silly! We're the ones indebted to you! Right?"
Hwa Jai: "Exactly! Oh! Look at the time! You'd better get going!"
Kim: "Ah yes. I must leave now. Stay well, you two."
(Raiden and Hwa Jai's happy faces now turn into mean grins)
Raiden: "...Whew. He's finally gone."
Hwa Jai: "He he he he he! What an idiot!"
Raiden: "Chang and Choi, was it? Did they honestly think we'd fall for that?"
Hwa Jai: "Those guys must be shaking in their boots right now."
Raiden: "Serves 'em right, ha ha!"
Hwa Jai: "I hope Kim teaches those guys a good lesson, he he he!"
(Black screen)
Kim: "254...255...."
(In a dojo, Kim looks menacingly with his arms crossed over Chang and Choi,
with Chang doing push-ups with Kim's sons, Jae Hoon and Dong Hwan, sitting atop
of him, and Choi lifting some weights. Both look as miserable as ever)
Kim: "256.... Keep going!"
Chang: "Why, those dirty...."
Choi: "It seems like they were on to our little plan...."
Kim: "No talking! Apparently, I've been going too easy on you! That's what I
learned from those two! I'm going to be even tougher on you from now on!"
Chang: "What goes around...comes around...."
Choi: "We're not very good at being evil...are we...."
WOMEN FIGHTERS TEAM (King/Mai/Yuri)
(The entrance to the Pao Pao Cafe is shown, riddled with neon lights around the
door)
King/Mai/Yuri: "Cheers!"
(Scene fades into the inside of the Cafe, where a long line of famous KOF female
fighters is shown drinking alongside a counter, which include Li Xiangfei,
Malin, Vanessa, Kasumi Todoh, and B. Jenet, alongside Mai, Yuri, and King, all
wearing normal, civilian clothes)
"Congrats! Yay! Congratulations! You did it!"
(Small panel of Mai drinking it up and laughing is shown)
Mai: "Hoooo! Victory tastes so sweet!"
(Small panel of King drinking a glass of wine is shown)
King: "Well, once we get serious, it's merely a walk in the park."
(Small panel of Yuri also holding a drink and smiling is shown)
Yuri: "That's right! We're the original female fighting team! And maybe the
prettiest?"
Mai: "Oh ho ho ho ho! That's right! We're the strongest and the most beautiful
women in the world!"
(Camera shifts to the right, where small panels displaying Jenet, Malin, Kasumi,
and Xiangfei all appear individually, all with angry glares on their faces.
Scene switches to the counter, where Hotaru and Hinako are sitting at, as
Pao Pao Cafe owner Richard Myer is preparing a drink on a shaker)
Hinako: "But which of you three is the strongest?"
(Small panel of King with her cheeks blushing, showing that she is a little bit
tipsy)
King: "W-Well.... I AM the leader after all...."
(Small panel of Yuri looking concerned)
Yuri: "That's mean, King! Trying to slip one past us!"
(Small of Mai also looking pretty ticked)
Mai: "That's right! You're not the strongest! You're only the leader because
you're the oldest!"
(King flashes a mean glare)
King: "Wha...!?"
(Yuri holds her cheek, glimmering all around, and blushing)
Yuri: "That means I'm the strongest, because I'm the youngest! I'm number one!
Woooo!"
Mai: "Now YOU'RE the one trying to slip one past us! Youth doesn't equal
strength!"
(Yuri concerned again)
Yuri: "Well, you can't say that age is strength, either!"
King: "Hold on a second! Are you trying to say that I'm old!?"
(Small panel of Vanessa appears, as she smiles nostalgically while drinking a
mug of beer)
Vanessa: "*sigh* It's nice to be young.... Isn't it...."
(Small panel of Malin with an annoyed look on her face)
Malin: "Besides, you only won because you got lucky."
(Small panel of Janet running a hand through her hair)
Jenet: "Exactly. If I was in the tournament, everyone would definitely know who
was the number one beauty."</pre><pre id="faqspan-11">
(Yuri taking a sip of her drink, with a sly look on her flustered face)
Yuri: "Yeah, well none of you were, so you've got absolutely no say in this
whatsoever."
(Small panel of Xiangfei, angrily holding a straw in her hand)
Xiangfei: "Oh, what was that!? You're insulting us now!?"
(Small panel of Kasumi assuming a fighting stance)
Kasumi: "Then we'll settle this fight here! Bring it on, Miss Kyokugen!"
(Mai smiles wryly, her face now shining red)
Mai: "Come and get some, ladies!"
(Back at the counter, Hotaru and Hinako look worried as the fight rages on)
Hotaru: "Uh.... Shouldn't we do something...?"
Richard: "......"
(Hotaru looks at Richard)
Hotaru "...S-Seriously. We should stop them, right?"
(Spotlight narrows on Richard's face, who drops a tear from his eye, and just
as the spotlight closes, the tear drops to the ground)
K' TEAM (K'/Maxima/Kula)
(Bird view of a cruiser ship navigating through the ocean. On the side of a
swimming pool filled with vacationists, K' is resting on a yard chair with his
hands behind his head, wearing a Hawaiian shirt)
K': "...Man, it's finally over. I'm sick of this crap. I ain't ever taking part
in this again."
(Maxima appears on the left, also sitting in a yard chair, reading a book and
looking at K')
Maxima: "Hey, don't be like that. Thanks to it, we're able to enjoy this
vacation, right?"
K': "I don't need a vacation. ...You're the one that's enjoying it."
Maxima: "Hey, I'm not...."
(A panel opens in the middle, showing a waitress in a Hawaiian dress serving
some sort of exotic drink to Maxima)
Waitress: "Here you are, Sir...."
(Maxima receives it with delight)
Maxima: "I'm not NOT enjoying it."
K': "Tch...."
(Maxima holds the glass in his hands)
K': "Who dragged us into all that trouble anyway?"
Maxima: "Hey, don't look at me. It was our princess' idea, remember?"
K': "...And where is the princess now?"
(Kula is seen amidst a huge splash in the pool, riding a lifesaver)
Kula: "Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
(Back to Maxima and K', where Maxima has already finished his drink, and now has
a straw in his mouth)
Maxima: "Well, I'm glad to see that she's enjoying herself. And while we're
here.... You try and have some fun too, K'."
K': "Yeah right, I'm bored outta my mind here."
(Maxima puts the glass aside as he looks at K' with disdain)
Maxima: "...Well, you're in luck. Looks like someone ordered some fun for you."
(Two panels open on the top and bottom of the screen, showing some secret agents
pulling out some guns and pointing them at K' and Maxima)
K': "Hmph...."
(K' and Maxima jump out of their chairs and take out the agents in front of
them, ready for some action)
Agent: "Gah!"
K': "Who are these guys?"
(Scene is seen through Maxima's eyes, who scans the agents in their
surroundings)
Maxima: "Beats me. ...But, we ARE the fruit of NESTS' research."
K': "So everyone's trying to get their hands on us? What a pain in the ass...."
(Back to K' and Maxima ready for action, as a panel on the left shows an angry
Kula surrounded by snowflakes)
Kula: "Ooh! Stop bothering me!"
(A panel on the right shows Maxima holding his arm in anticipation)
Maxima: "Geez, what a bunch of rude guys. So much for a relaxing vacation."
(Panel in the middle shows K' with his hands in his pockets)
K': "Tch.... How many of 'em are there? They just keep coming."
Maxima: "At least you're not bored now, right?"
Kula: "That's it! You asked for it!"
(Panel in the middle shows K's gloved hand engulfed in flames, which he clenches
into a fist)
K': "...Fine.
(K' delivers a flaming punch towards the screen)
K': "Let's kill some time!"
PSYCHO SOLDIER TEAM (Athena/Kensou/Chin)
(At a press conference, Chin, Bao, and Momoko stand in the foreground, while
Athena and Kensou stand in the background, as cameras flashes everywhere)
Reporter: "Congratulations, Psycho Soldier Team!"
Athena: "Thank you! It's all thanks to my wonderful fans!"
Reporter: "You're the top story all over the globe! I heard there are talks
about turning your saga into a TV series or a movie!"
Kensou: "TV? Movie!? R-Really!?"
Reporter: "Yes! There are a ton of companies negotiating for the rights!"
Kensou: "Wow...!"
(Screen turns black)
Woman: "Eeeeeeek!"
Man: "Huh!? The power's out!?"
(Evil red eyes start glowing)
"He he he he...."
Shiguma: "Mua ha ha ha ha ha!"
(The red eyes belong to a ominous green cloud with a nasty face in the sky)
Shiguma: "I am Shiguma! Ruler of Earth!"
Kensou: "Not so fast! We'll put an end to your evil!"
(One of Shiguma's eyes looks over in concern)
Shiguma: "Who's there!?"
(Panel of Kensou dressed in some red Power Ranger outfit appears)
Kensou: "Psycho Red!"
(Panel of Athena dressed in some blue Power Ranger outfit appears on the right)

right)
Bao: "Psycho Orange!"
(All 4 members appear standing over a cliff striking some wacky Sentai poses)
Group: "The Psycho Rangers!"
(Colorful explosions surge behind them, as we go back to Shiguma's face)
Shiguma: "Curse you meddling fools! Robo-Ron, come forth!"
(Panel of a mecha Ron surges from below)
Ron: "Yes, Master Shiguma! Time for you to die, Rangers!"
(Panel of Ken...um, Psycho Blue appears on the left)
Kensou: "Another Mecha-Hizoku! Let's do this, everyone!"
(Back to all 4 panels of the Psycho Rangers)
Athena/Momoko/Bao: "Roger!"
(Kaoru Watabe and Chin, dressed as a military general, cheer on in the
background)
Kaoru: "Go! Go! Psycho Rangers!"
Chin: "Use the Psycho Bomber!"
(Obviously, this turns out to be a Kensou pipe dream as we go back to the press
conference, as all the Psycho Soldiers except Kensou seem to be in on Kensou's
daydreaming)
Kensou: "That would be so awesome!"
(Everyone laughs it off)
All: "In your dreams!"
IKARI WARRIORS TEAM (Leona/Ralf/Clark)
(The whole ending takes place from Leona'a POV. At first, she is blinking and
looking around a room, until she finally focuses on Clark, who is sitting on
a bench with his head down and his arms crossed)
Leona: "Lieutenant...."
(Clark raises his head)
Clark: "Hey, don't strain yourself. Just relax. We're not all that worried. Just
consider this as some well-earned rest...."
(Leona then looks at the door to her room, where the window panel displays the
silhouettes of Ralf and Whip, which occasionally move from time to time)
Ralf: "When is she going to wake up, you quack!?"
Doctor: "S-Soon, Sir, soon!"
Whip: "Colonel, calm down!"
Ralf: "Can it! Even the Commander stayed by her side all night!"
Whip: "This is a hospital!"
Ralf: "I don't care if it's the White House!"
Whip: "Please, just calm down! We're all worried here! That might release stress
for you, but you're causing stress for everyone who has to clean up after
you!"
Ralf: "What? Don't you talk to me like that, Whippy!"
Whip: "Don't you call me that! I won't hesitate to make you pay for that,
Colonel!"
(Clark puts a fist near his mouth, simulating coughing)
Clark: "*A-HEM*"
.....
(When Leona looks back to the door, Ralf and Whip are already inside the room,
all smiles)
Ralf: "Oh, finally awake, Sleeping Beauty?"
Whip: "It's good to have you back!"
Leona: "I'm so sorry...."
Ralf: "Don't worry about it. You deserved to have a little rest."
(Clark comes into scene from the right)
Clark: "I already said that, Ralf. Just sit down."
(Whip looks at Ralf)
Whip: "I agree with the Lieutenant, Sir."
(Ralf looks at the two, not amused)
Ralf: "Oh, so I'm in the way now, am I?"
Clark: "That's not what I...."
Whip: "Well, you ARE in the way, Sir."
(Ralf sneers)
Ralf: "Why don't you try showing some respect to your superior for a change...."
(Whip looks away in disgust)
Whip: "Maybe I would if you acted like a proper superior for a change!"
Ralf: "...You know, you really aren't cute at all."
Clark: "Whip, stop it. And Colonel, please. You need to act more mature."
Ralf: "You just love to sit back and make yourself look all cool...."
Clark: "I apologize if I'm not a fan of the same childish diversions as you and
Whip, Colonel."
(Whip looks at Clark with concern)
Whip: "Childish? That's a mean way to put it, Lieutenant!"
(Clark now focuses on Whip)
Clark: "Don't interrupt my lecture! This is exactly what I'm talking about. You
need to learn some propriety...."
Leona: "......Ha ha...."
(All 3 look at Leona with confusion)
Leona: "Ha ha ha ha...."
(Screen turns white)
ASH TEAM (Any team combination with Ash, with Ash defeating Dark Ash in the end)

literally having himself whole fistfuls of food, as Ash and Duo Lon look
flabbergasted at him)

(Scene of Ash leaning against the counter of a bar, looking at Shen and Oswald
have a game of cards)
"And day's at the morn;"
(Scene of Ash taking Chizuru's powers from her, made clear by the crystal '9'
he has in his hand. Kyo tends to the fallen Chizuru, as Iori looks on in the
background with his hands in his pockets. This is taken from their ending in
KOF 2003)
"Morning's at seven;"
(Scene of a young Ash putting a headdress made of flowers atop Elizabeths's head

(Black screen)
"All's right with the world!"
EDIT TEAM (Any team that does not fit the previous line-ups/requirements)
(An operator checks out his screen on the bridge of an aircraft carrier.
Heidern stands behind him with his arms crossed)
Operator: "Space-time distortion detected at the stadium. It's expanding at a
phenomenal rate."
Heidern: "So he's done it then...."
Operator: "60 seconds until restoration."
(Far view of the stadium and the city from the coastline)
Heidern: "Everything related to this event will have never existed. Even our
memories. ...But that's for the best."
Operator: "So, we're done, Sir? All those preparations for nothing...."
Heidern: "It's best if we don't have to use force.... Contact all ships, tell
them to prepare to withdraw!"
Operator: "Yes, Sir!"
(Heidern with his arms crossed and his eyes closed)
Heidern: "(Ash Crimson sacrificed himself to save the world. Actually, saving
the world was probably only an afterthought to him.... He did it out
of pride, even though it meant erasing his own existence.... And yet
no one among us will even remember what happened here.)
Operator: "We will soon be within the distortion, Sir. ...Sir?"
(Heidern opens his eyes and yells)
Heidern: "Mission complete. All ships, return to base!"
BAD ENDING (Ending that occurs if you do not get enough points to fight True
Saiki and Dark Ash)
(Rose appears on the main screen of the stadium, as fireworks go off and
confetti litters the air. The camera pans up to see the top of the building and
the fireworks in the night sky)
Rose: "Congratulations! The Bernstein family is truly honored to have hosted
such a grand tournament. We shall never forget those who fought to take
hold of glory, and.... The King of Fighters!"
(The scene switches to the Orochi shrine, where the glowing red sphere that
contains the essence of Orochi still stands. Ash stands watch over it, as the
sphere loses its' glow. Next scene has all of Saiki's hooded cronies kneeling)
Saiki: "You bunch of worms really lucked out.... It's a good thing I gathered
just enough energy to open the gate....
(Botan also appears kneeling, with a disappointed look on her face, followed by
Mukai in the same position)
Saiki: "Otherwise, I would've killed you all."
(Bird view of Saiki lying down on his throne)
Saiki: "Ah well, I'll rewind history and start over from scratch. You maggots
won't get so lucky next time.
(Close-up of Saiki's face)
Saiki: "Incompetent creatures."
(Saiki closes his eyes)
Saiki: "(Seriously....)"
(Saiki looks to his right)
Saiki: "............"
(Ash takes one last look at the obscure orb, as he starts to walk away, with his
hands behind his head and smiling. Saiki closes his eyes again and sneers)
Saiki: "(I couldn't depend on you either.... Damn it!)"
