  • @gerglefinn8281

    I like to believe that due to the unsavory types attracted to these fights in SamSho the refs like Kuroko have to be incredibly strong in order to deal with them pulling stunts such as attacking the referee. I also believe he mimicked his moves from the ancestors of characters like Kyo and Iori. But it could always just be fan service which is fine.

    Him as Master Tung is Interesting theory though, it's possible that master Tung read the imortal scroll like Geese did. And notice how the other ninja brother also uses moves like Kusanagi flames and the yagami purple flames which make it possible that they was around from the days of orochi. These guys is flooded in mystery. As well as Tung because he's training Shunei to save the world from unknown great evil that nobody know about. I'm just adding to the lore, this is what I tough back in my teenage years. And after playing kof 14.

    This might be deeper than we think... In Samurai Shodown 2, while doing Master Tung's Ancien Shock Blow(Rapid LP or HP, depending on which version of him is being played), he displays the exact makings of the Big Dipper across his chest, which Kenshiro(Fist of the North Star) has also have across his.. Anybody that knows the anime/manga(s), knows that Hokuto Shinken is not only centuries upon centuries old, but also knows that 1 of the main technique Hokuto Shinken is known is perfect if not better with mimicking other moves. This could be very well the source of Kuroko & his Bros origins. Furthermore, Matōki no Aura is the original fighting style of the series/manga before Hokuto Shinken, but was seriously dangerous the style is. Kuroko and his brothers could be the very founders of those mega old styles, which makes more sense as to what they can do here.

    Brilliant video. The awesomeness of Kuroko cannot be understated. SNK really put him in the top echelon of their fighters. Definitely top 5 across their franchises. Since there is not real lore to his strength I'm throwing my hat in the ring for fanfiction. I like the idea that Kuroko's style spawned all the others. I'm saying that Kuroko is from the past, but is the Orochi in its true form and its brothers are the four heavenly kinds. The newcomers team never got it right, and we only saw a watered down version. Kuroko is what they were trying to bring back lol.
    Okay, that's not as good when I write it, but still, cool character! Thanks for the video Shoryu!

    Kuroko's mascular projection seen in @8:21 has the Hokuto Shin Ken 7 star puncture holes.

    if kuroko's alt. color is red, he should be called "akako" or "gurenoko"...
    sorry, bad joke. ✌️

      It's not his alt color, it's his rage sprite, when he loses the rage meter he goes back to black.

      Outside of the Neo CD and Japan only PS1 version, there were really no other ports of SS2. What you may have played on the Anthology was all emulated games, save for SS6 which was on Atomiswave hardware. Perhaps you faced him in Sam Sho 3 PS1 (since the Saturn and Game Boy ones were Japan only, and you faced him in those as well), where he comes out and faces you each time you play a new game, and always faces you as yourself.

    So, basically Kukoro the referee is the "judo" style referee, but observers the characters stances and movesets, dang.....guy also has Rugal's Genocide Cutter? Hell, he beat Rugal, Goenitz or worse "Dark Ash" and all his dark power, all that crazy power inside a judo style referee in Samsho? For all we know, the guy can also travel to the MCU and replicate Thanos' Infinity Gauntlet and Stones.......HOLY HELL, SON!!!!!

    I always thought he was hidden character not too familiar with him I played Samsho 1 on SNES, 3 on PS1, V on Xbox and 2019 on PS4 and still haven’t bumped into him. You must do more Samsho lore want to see Nicotine Caffeine, Genjuro, Amakusa, Jubei, Gaoh to name a few!!! Also I would love to see you do trailer analysis on Antonov really happy he is back and making friends and appearing more swaggy too!!!

    Oh right Samurai Showdown. SNK's other big Fighting Game Franchise, other than KoF and Fatal Fury... Art of Fighting too I guess.

    Looks like I know who I'm going to cosplay as. But there is something that concerns me isn't there someone in snk that's actually a time traveler?

      Nope, but the World Heroes guys are all time travelers, they are technically not SNK, however
