Hes a clone of Kyo. KoF had a whole arc based on Kyo clones Plus his design is a callback to the designer’s other game, The Fallen Angels and ganguro deliquents motocycle gangs.

Not everything is blade.

Damn you are right, the design is just based on Kyo, you are right. Wow, damn, someone should sue the Michael Jackson estate for ripping of THE ENTIRE DESIGN of a snk character. I’m not stalling out any other cultures ripping off black folks mane, that’s for Blade, etc.

Fighting games don't really have main characters.


He's not black. They have actual black fighters like Seth, lucky G, heavy D, Marco Rodrigues and Delores.

Tekken has Leroy who is probably their most objectively cool new character since both ravens. Matter of fact, I have to say SNK and namco are the only ones who take black characters seriously. As much as I like capcom they've been terrible for black representation since SF4.

Yeah I agree with that Namco SNK view..

Capcom doesn't really have a cool black male character..

Def Jam fight for New York

This is the most recent one I can think of too

I didn’t think fighting games had a “main character”

You talmbout whoever’s on the box?

You don't know any better cuz by your own admission, you don't really play fighting games. Trust that practically every fighting game has a main character. And they're practically never black. We've really only just gotten to the point now where there's black fighting game characters that aren't 150% stereotypical in their looks, demeanor and fighting styles.

So who’s the main character of a fighting game? The guy on the box?

If there's a sole character on the box, it is typically the main character, yes. However, many games may not have just one character on the box or even any character. Not to mention that box art is often different per region the games are released in.

Any of them.

How do you determine who’s the “main character”

I’m trying to figure out how this thread makes any damn sense.

As far as i know most fighting games just have a roster of characters and people chose their favorites.

For the purpose of this thread how are we determining who’s the “main character”

Majority of the time the main character of a fighting game. Is the person that the game’s story revolves around. For example Tekken 1 = Kazuya, Tekken 2 = Heihachi, and Tekken 3 = Jin.
