I love this guy. "okay done? Move on, now."
"Fiiine. I'll talk about Bernstein junior for a bit"
I was like whhoooaahh 😂
I like Adelheid he is badass
Trust me, i was not the one bragging about Adelheid from the get-go, lol
Love the content, even if he does sound like a mix of Dracula and Chris Charlton.
That Adelheid bit was glorious. X'D I wasn't aware that people wanted you to talk about him so bad. If you HAD to make a video on him, I'd include Rose too since both have so little to talk about. ^^; My only interest in him lies in his exclusion from KOF XIII. Adelheid _is_ the "secondary protagonist" of the Tales of Ash Saga, after all.
14:01
Kyo : (Sees wild iori) *IKUZE*
And yes, I liked my own comment!
If you like your own comment that's fine
I like Kusanagi. His anger makes him a fun character to play. You can hear his burning passion to fight, whether it be to destroy or for fun. Also, he is voiced by Mitsuo Iwata, the same person that voices Sean from Street Fighter III: Third Strike. I want him back.
I want KUSANAGI to be his Characters using Kyo-1 & 2 as his Personal Striker like OG Zero.
Don't forget, Mitsuo Iwata is also Shotaro kaneda from AKIRA
Kula is literally one of my main characters! She's just soo cUte and enjoyable to play with.
Yes officer this guy right here enjoys little girls
@@themonoloco8245 bRuh HAHAHAHA
@@themonoloco8245 I'm on it.
She is one of my main in any KOF games since I say a really great cryomancer user like sub-zero
U better go google how many years old she is cuz after i googled it i immediately know the FBI was coming.
Kula is my favorite mid boss because the way she is introduced the stage but freezing the entire area to show how powerful she is and her theme is GOOD!
Agree, I was like "DAMN I WANT HER TO WIN!" even if she was challenging me.
I appreciate that you've given Silber some love. Honestly, I missed this guy. He was so different from the rest of the characters in XI, no fireballs, exaggerated combos, no teleportation--this dude was all hands and feet. This guy is all about conventional strikes, and all he wants is to end you with as few hits as possible. This is in reference to Bruce Lee's old adage of fearing the man who's practiced the same kick 10000 times. Unlike other Karate practitioners in King of Fighters, Silber set himself apart with his less-flashy but equally effective fighting style.
I used to love landing his counter super when playing with my friends. I would honestly love to see this guy return again as a playable character.
Same. He's pretty unique.
I’d imagine his connection to Oswald is a “Goku and Hit” situation.
I gained my love for O. Leona and Iori from the mobile game KOF 98 UM OL. Just the way they lose their minds once the ROTB activates from Orochi’s presence was intimidating yet lovely. The backstories behind the forms is saddening though.
AU where Kula gets adopted by Terry.
Also The riot of blood is terrifying to think about.
I would watch that without thinking twice.
- V.D.
I'd definitely watch that show.
Also, fellow Mother 3 fan, nice.
If you think about it, If Terry ever adopted Kula, Rock would grow quite differently.
Where you got that from was it in a movie or tv show or an actual game?
Hulk mode
I love how the number one spot went to Leona and Iore. I really have to say it was a task and a half to be even one of them. Funny thing is I would rather fight the final boss in 99. Then to fight them. And I was always do thank you for the information
You're welcome.
Your KOF lore videos gave meaning behind the game I loved spending time in the arcade playing endlessly as a kid. Please do Lore/Story of Metal Slug series also. Thanks :) and appreciate your hard work in creating these gems.
10:58 I was about to riot
Riot of the blood?
Whats Fei Long doing here?
@@chandrakatel4354 can’t I enjoy an analysis of fellow fighters? /j
@@BetaXeeta no you must train more
Angel in 2002 has very poor AI though :/
If you back her to a corner she does absolutely nothing but block.
Her attacks are easy to counter when AI is controling her.
Did i mention point requirement for her is less then 250k points.
Less then 300k to 250k mid boss is K9999
300k points and above you fight Kula
I never knew the points requirement. I've only been able to play angel and K9999. I never cared about the points really.
How many point are required to fight with Kusanagi as a mid boss; he is the hardest mid boss to be unlock in KOF 2002
So happy to see my painting ver of Adel from KoF XIII! It's been like 10 years already!
I have faced both Orochi Iori and Leona in the arcade back in my college years (2001). Those were the days of struggle, and with luck I'm able to defeat them. The Orochi saga is one of the best parts of the KOF series. Nameless is interesting tho yes K9999 is sadly a rip off of Tetsuo from Akira that added to his infamy. His attitude as well.
Great video again!
Thanks, I agree with what you said.
@@ShoryuGame I was rewatching your amazing videos and have this to say. 1. I will never forgive 2002 UM for not only ditching both K9999 and Orochi Iori, but for creating Nameless in game with no real story mode (something not even Samurai Showdown did), and I can say that with confidence now thanks to K9999’s return as Krohnen. And 2 you’re going to regret saying “anyone can win Kula’s heart with ice cream 🍨” as that is the leaked reason why Kula is teaming up with Angel and Krohnen.
Last year I finally came around to finding this gem of a series, and wanted to know more about the game. Thank you for explaining this game so I can enjoy a fighting series with an actual enriching story.
Always on point. Keep the videos coming!
Kof 97 mid Bosses are the best!!! Fuuuuuu they were so strong!!!
The Bernstein Jr part 😂😂😂😂
Like UGH, I GUESS I'LL TALK ABOUT HIM
Actually Silver is more "similar" to Raizo (from rival schools) than akuma. Just put on a suit on Silver and draw him a mustache and that's it, they're the same person.
I think they're modeled after the same person, as is Leo from Guilty Gear
These videos are so well made!
13:57 heartbeat starts
Me: (original iori xlll neomax voices)
Great content and video... As expected !! 😇
I enjoyed so much watching this video :D amazing top 10!
Thank you!
I really think SNK has the best grasp of bringing out characters personality through their fighting style, and even characters who use the same style come off with very different strengths and weakness based on how they personally use their style. A good example is Goneitz and Iori using similar techniques because Orochi gifted Iori's techniques to his ancestors. Like functionally similar, but Iori using flames and not enjoying fighting means he uses them to end fights quickly. Goenitz uses wind, and wanting to show off the power of his God makes him come off like he's toying with your team to show off when he could probably kill his opponents much faster if he used them like Iori does. Small details like that is why SNK is one of the best fighting game developers ever imo.
Another great video!
Another great vid, Shoryu!!!!
Thanks.
Thanks you bro for Show video of kof allstars
Been looking forward to this
Nameless deserves more love and deserve to become a canon character.
But he doesnt deserve a name.
@@ChaosAngel667 He deserves, but he don't have one.
I WILL NOT SHUT UP ABOUT ADELHEID! NOT UNTIL I SEE HIM IN XV!
Ahem...
I definitely agree with Wild Iori/Leona being #1, but more so Iori because of his unique vicious super where drags you to the ground and rips you apart being one of the most memorable supers in the series.
Plenty of midbosses to like, especially in KoF XI. My favorite though would have to be Angel in 2002 UM simply because of her theme song...
Aw, junior’s growing up to be just as hated as me. I’m so proud.
Nope you are still most hated
the other reason why is because Angel is too distracting to fight, ESPECIALLY in 14
10:57-11:07 Okay that part got me pretty good.
Yeah I should have expecting seeing Wild Iori/Leona on the top of this list.
Hello and thanks for this video, awesome as usual ;)
Thank you for watching.
@@ShoryuGame don't mention it, you're welcome ;)
Love the Adelheid part. Awesome video as always.
O. Iori and O. Leona are my favourite since I played KOF 97 a lot when I was in middle school.
By the way, is it possible for you to make a "Top 10 KOF XIV characters" video in the future?
You mean just the new characters or ALL the roster of XIV?
@@ShoryuGame Yea, just the new characters.
I love your videos! Why not make one about KOF All Star?
thank you
Loved KoF XI's mid bosses. All of them just came out of nowhere.
Really hated when you tried to skip Adelheid.....glad you reversed the decision. Thanks ! True KOF fans love him no matter what.
It's alright because, as a whole, the Ash Saga is not much popular. It's only something memorable by people who found out the series with those games...
@@carlosaugusto9821 I've played from KOF 94 to upwards to KOF XIV and still Adelheid has such a higher place in my lovable characters list.
@@123arskas Ok but that doesn't change anything of what i said. I've also played all main games, and this is my favorite series, but i also have some preferences that differ from the general community opinions. It's still true that the Ash Saga is definitely not popular and sometimes people are not passionate about some chars unfortunate enough to have debuted in it. The negative opinion about the arc ends up affecting the perception about those chars (which is not correct imo).
@@carlosaugusto9821 Alright but doesn't the Ash Saga also involve " Those from the Past "? After the Orochi Saga this one covered quite a lot of titles.
Totally agree with your number 1.
Nameless has the coolest looking flames its a shame they got rid of him
You should do the stories of The Last Blade 1 and 2.
Wait a minute! I'm pretty sure you talked about Adelheid before. Anyway! I love your videos, and would like to suggest a video talking about the Game Boy Advanced versions of KOF. Especially EX2, which has its own plot with its own unique and exclusive characters and bosses. It's already rare to see people talking about KOF on youtube, but seems like even the SNK community chose to ignore these "ugly ducks" in the series, so I thought it would be an interesting subject for a video. In any case, thanks for the content, and just keep the good work!
I love how a boss being astronomically weaker when made playable has been explained in the story exactly once ever.
If possible, please do videos related to KOF Destiny. Like the differences between the original lore and that series, the moves used, etc.
9:29 *Insert sad music here*
RIP K9999
I will never forget you 😢
I will never forgive SNK for eliminated him
Definitely Leona and Iori are the best ones, no doubt about that, though my personal favorite is Kula ♥ ! I was pleasantly surprised to see her in the number 2 spot! Thanks!
I was hoping you mentioned silver, i love XI for the ps2 since it has a butt load of hidden mid bosses
Yeah, I'd say the Blood Riot fights deserve the top spot. Even if you already knew this was a thing with them before playing '97, the actual impact of seeing the background flash red, the music going completely insane, and the fighter in question lunging at you with wild, reckless abandon, frothing at the mouth... It stays with you.
Yeah no lie,I actually grew up on snk more than capcom lol.but I didn't play most of da kof's up to 2001 tho so I just really wanna go thru 94 to 2003 cuz I'm mainly curious about mukai,da American sports team,n da buriki one characters.great video bro 💯💯
PS:wud u consider lookin into Fuma from "World heros"?
im actually smash my damn keyboard back then when i fought orochi iori smh
The Adelheid scene literally made me laugh out loud. Brilliant. I hope that one day the Orochi storyline can be translated into a nice live action TV series or anime. That had such a rich depth of characters and intricate stories. Great Vid Shoryu!
Thanks.
@@ShoryuGame do you have any other social media?
Kof XI need to be rereleased
My favorite mini boss is Kusanagi because he is my main in kof 2002
kula is my favourite mid boss
-get's to Angel... say's An-hell... " HE SAID IT RIGHT!" lol... I still don't get why it's pronounced that way tho.
It's how Angel is pronounced in Spanish since she's Mexican.
ahh OK... thing was, I never knew she was. tho I figured that was why anyone would pronounce it that way. but until I knew, I never wanted to assume she was of any Hispanic decent or anything. tho... her being on team Mexico explains it all now lol. grief I'm slow. I kinda figured she was there because why not. but this makes a bit more sense... plus some of her wrestling moves
@@tarodeculture As a mexican I can tell you he is not pronouncing it right either, he is putting the accent in the wrong place... and sound horrible the way he pronounces it XDDDD, its AN!-hell not an-HELL! the accent its on the first syllable.
It's the Mexico dialect, yeah.
In my honest opinion, I don't say it like An-Hell. I always call it the way it was pronounced by many westerns.
Hey Shoryu, I was curious, would a Lore video on O. Zero or Krizalid be possible? Or is there too little information?
I don't know. I haven't done any research about them yet.
Blood Riot Iori appeared only in 2 SNK arcade games... But man, what an appearance it was.
Its Hard to decide who is the best my personal favorite mid boss.
I say Kyo Clones on 2002 UM, because we never get the chance to fight Kyo 1, 2 and Kusanagi as regular CPU characters in his debut games (I know Kusanagi its mid boss on 2003)
That Kyo-1 is ridiculously fun to play/fight.
I would like a Team Bernstein in 15 with Adelheid, Rose, & Antonov as it's Members.
Good video.
Adelheid and Shingo are my favorite Mid Bosses.
I hope SNK brings back the two.
Not gonna lie all KOF subbosses are awesome! Some probably even more than their actual final boss counterpart of some games
Man, your videos are so amazingly scripted! Another flawless execution!
Thank you.
I would love to see Adelhyde again
Top KOF characters that was there for ONE game only!
Thanks for the suggestion.
For the replacement of k9999 had something to do with copyright and snk being sold to playmore but not all the ip and tm was transferred, if I recalled correctly
Coolest boss to me is silver... he looks really cool and I know that he kick... my personal mid-boss is shingo because he's actually kind of memorable to me. He is a great fighter :)
I really liked K9999 tho...... he was my secret weapon to defeat Rugal in 2002 lol
14:20 Orochi Iori? In my country we named "Iori loco" (Crazy Iori). lol
What about a top 10 of the most damaging supers and the least ones
Amazing bit before the adelheid entry
Gewd list
Silver Vs Akuma Would be a Super Battle
KOF my childhood Arcade game
Silber cause buruki 1 was my fav game that not many played
Idk what mid-boss I like but I like the most is nameless,his style is cool and his skill are op
My fav midboss is Kula, Foxy, Kusanagi, and nameless soon, also can you tell me how to unlock his mid boss fight? I tried doing it without losing one fight but do we have to finish a certain number of characters with Desperation moves?
Silber (Silver) reminds me of Heihachi. Which is good since both are cool :)
I have a bad phobia when I saw orochi iori for the first time and I was so afraid of him. The background the music everything was so scary. Even when I started sleeping, I had terrible nightmare because of that even though that I loved kof 97 story.
Damn you orochi iori , why are you so fast 😭😭😭💥
Orochi Iori and Orochi Leona speed and attacks are crazy.
You add Shingo, but not Shion?! :(
Shion was magnificent, and my personal top.
Oh, and Orochi Iori/Leona was not the first sub-boss. *points to Saishu and Chizuru*
This is the MID-bosses video. There is another list for Sub-bosses.
I like Kusanagi making the top 5, but honestly, to beat him in 2003 is really super easy.
I'm not sure what the differences between sub boss and mid boss are in fighters. I think the difference for Kula in 2000 was she was trying to kill which isn't necessarily trying your hardest imo. This is a pretty good list and I'm glad you made it.
A sub-boss comes right before the fight with final boss.
@@ShoryuGame Is a midboss the person or group that leads to the difficulty jump?
Orochi iori and Orochi Leona is from King of Fighters 96 and the Reppuken is Geese move along with the double Reppu-Ken.
Orochi Iori and Orochi Leona are King and Queen of mid bosses ✨💕💪🏽👸🏻🤴🏻.
Kula lore pleasee
5:51-5:59 I hope SNK can do the same for the Maximum Impact characters
They did a good job with Silber so
Why not?
I would like to see Alba, Lien and Luise.
The Maximum Impact games are underrated
A triple mid-range fireball as a regular special move - in a 2D game!?
Uhhhhhh, fuck alla that.
I'm actually hoping the duke will make the next kof game ...my favorite cheap boss of kof
@@ThaProd1gy I also like Duke.
He was great when he was playable.
Oorochi Iori was so bad for me that I had to turn down the difficulty to 2, and even then, I still just barely beat them
I like shingo he's my favorite character.
Jyazu, Mezu and Gozu will make a good Kizuna Encounter Team in KOF XV.
I always like how he says rugal
The fight against Kusanagi still gives me PTSD
do a Top 10 KOF Team.
can't believe he forgot adelheid again.
Maybe some other SNK games? NGBC needs love too!
Also theres a secret team with Athena,Ralf and clack to vs orochi leaon
I really want a top ten "Charming Person" list 😂.
Here is a question for u? Who is your favorite mid-boss?
My favorite mid boss is the loading screen stopping me from continuing the fights.
