A cool easter egg I saw someone mention in another video is that all the gym balls are Green, Yellow or Blue with a bit of white, the colours of the Brazillian flag, Marocs being from Brazil.
I love how all these stages aren't just random places. Not only they're old, familiar places, they're also telling us a story. Back in AoF2 Yuri worked as a part-timer on this fitness club, and now she owns the whole place.
Another possibility is that this place is more or less replacing the Sakazaki dojo as Marco and other karate students are there. It could be that Yuri wanted to have a different place to preserve the Kyokugen karate practice... but in her own way, which doesnt follow the traditional style of the original dojo business.
@@carlosaugusto9821 the dojo sign got stolen at the end of Garou, so basically they can't use the dojo until they can retrieve the sign.
@@MagmaMKII why not? It's not like they were evicted.
@@IrishKyokushin Its a Japanese tradition thing, if a dojo master challenges your dojo and you lose the challenger can take the sign. Losing your dojo sign is seen as shameful, so the way to restore your honor is to retrieve it.
Another thing on the wall I noticed is an ice cream cone. I think this is related to The Great Ice Cream Salesman mentioned by Andy Board in Fatal Fury 3. Could be a clue that The Great Ice Cream Salesman will finally be a playable character in City of the Wolves! 🍨🍧🍦
The colors on the balls in the ceiling make brazil's flag.
How about the bear being named Marco and the fighter being named Khushnood? 😁
Great job with the Easter Eggs especially highlighting the nerdy student.
Funny that the FF/AOF timeline actually moves in real time. Where characters get older as time goes by.
Unlike the KoF timeline, where they’re a floating timeline like South Park/Simpson’s. Time around them moves and technology advances, but they never age. Which makes the story less interesting.
I mean with how kof 15 directions ending gonna be I don't be surprised shun ei ryo and some other got design changes later
I wouldn't be surprised if they compress the AOF/FF timeline to keep the characters in their prime. Plus how they consider Ryo and Terry contemporaries I wouldn't be surprised if they're made to be around the same age.
I started liking the comparison to DBZ's decision of making Goku and Vegeta not age further from a certain point, thanks to a random saiyan race rule made by Toriyama that pretty much just seems to exist for the story writing convenience. Though the decision of aging Goku to the adult mark was already brave and risky enough for that time, maybe he didnt want to take more and bigger risks.
So as KOF became an instant hit and a promising new franchise, SNK probably decided to burrow the same "pure saiyan" logic for the sake of KOF's safe long term continuity. Just use everyone young and never aging no matter how long the franchise goes. So yeah, the KOF roster is like a pure saiyan... and sometimes Athena and Yuri seem to age backwards depending on the designer decision in certain sequels.
After all, KOF was conceived in the early-sh 90s and probably it was truly hard to anticipate the community's reaction to the chars aging. Like, only Garou MOTW in the very late 90s proved that the community actually loves to see the hero aging to that point. Before that it was understandably seen as a big risk, since that was a rare decision in the 90s fg scene. Only Capcom's SF3 had a time skip, and even so the returning chars barely look older.
Another interesting implication of that FF story direction is that the MOTW time skip might have killed some classic FF chars who were already old, or made some of them too out of shape to stay fighting, or even ended the motivation of some ones. So that can make a FF fan really curious and looking foward to what is going on with the chars in this new game.
Meanwhile KOF has all FF and AOF chars together in their young and prime forms, and they coexist with the MOTW chars, and Geese and Tung are alive... and to make it even better/worse, they all coexist with Samsho chars in KOF 15, and with Buriki One chars and Savage Reign chars in KOF 11.
@@carlosaugusto9821 I mean nakaruru actually has some godly power so to connect to kof make sense
Ryo should be around 51 by this current timeline so Yuri should be about 47 now. Its so cool to see everyone age up and time is flowing with this timeline. Can't wait for this game!
Honestly I'm expecting a soft reboot for this and the next AOF game. I'm expecting them to compress the AOF/FF timeline to make them around the same age [or slightly older] as they are in the KOF timeline. I guess we won't know for sure until we see Ryo in this game [either as DLC or in a cutscene]
KOF is a completely separete universe that has its own rules and has total control over the small elements taken from other franchises (FF, AOF, etc), so that universe decided to either totally freeze or just slow down the effects of aging on the chars. But the world of FF-AOF has different, more realistic rules, and it provides actual character development for those FF chars, and effects of time and aging, consistent lore logic, etc.
So Terry and all classic FF chars are older in this MOTW timeline, and since AOF happens years before the events of classic FF, then those AOF chars are supposed to be much older in this timeline.
@@IrishKyokushinI like the implication of old AOF chars in this MOTW/future timeline and dont want that changed. Maybe what could happen (and it seems pretty likely) is retconning some dates and ages just to avoid having the AOF chars too old. Because if FF COTW is successful and SNK gets interested in making (story) sequels, then things will keep moving from here on, and the MOTW/future timeline will be the "standard FF story"... like the time skip arc in any anime.
But i dont want the AOF chars' age retconned and brought down so much to a point that matches the same age of the main classic FF chars like Terry, Andy, Joe, Kim, etc... Just a small age drop. Also that decision of keeping them older automatically helps to highlight and distinguish FF's story direction and lore consistency compared to KOF's approach, that chose to keep everyone in their young forms for the sake of convenience. Keeping the two games different in that aspect is important to me.
Great! Would love to see Ryo playable as Mr. Karate 2 here and more backstory for the kyokugen familly all these years in FF.
As long as it's something original. The constant money troubles in KOF games have long run their course. It needs to be something different.
@@IrishKyokushin True. But since FF is a separate universe i guess there is little to fear, i mean being afraid of FF becoming influenced by KOF's own ideas about the AOF main chars.
Also, and this is important: Oda made the original MOTW, which elevated the narrative maturity of the franchise. So the FF franchise (or specifically the MOTW chapter) is fortunate to have its original mastermind back in the company. It's different from when a franchise has changes of directors over time and then a new dev has a chance of ruining some things, for lacking the vision of the original dev.
The fact that Oda is the responsible for conceiving this sequel has a lot of weight. Because MOTW, unlike KOF, doesnt disrespect the image of Kyokugen chars blatantly. And in the FF universe, before Oda got in, Ryo was already seen as powerful fighter. He is not ridiculed like in KOF.
@@IrishKyokushin And ok, it's a fact that Oda made KOF 14 and 15, that continued making fun of Ryo like the older titles... but to be totally fair, that must have been just him following the KOF "story rules". Like, KOF wasnt conceived by him, he just came recently to take care of it, and must have followed the known pattern with AOF chars in the franchise. But MOTW is a more personal creation for him, so there are solid chances that his approach with Kyokugen chars wont be the same, because in his own game he isnt forced to take anything from KOF.
I was just about to say that the bear must be "Khushnood Butt".
Excellent content as always, my dude!
I'm pretty damn hyped to see the bear back too 😎
I can already tell this game will have some of the best background/stages in fighting game history. The attention detail here is just insane! 😃
Game looks good even my brother who's a dedicated SNK games player looks forward to this I just hope the netcode is good and I find players to play with.
These first few revealed stages are making a great impression for the details and the design direction. I really like the decision of making them busy and full of animated elements, that reminds the style of some old SNK fgs, including games besides FF (like classic KOFs).
He wore it in mx impact 2 I think
Mr. Karate II or (二に代だい目めMrミスター.カラテ, lit. The Second Mr. Karate) is an alias for Ryo Sakazaki, the central character in the Art of Fighting series. He inherited the mantle from the previous Mr. Karate and is usually referred to as "Mr. Karate" in his earlier appearances. He also sports a tengu mask for most of his alternate outfits.
After the events of the Art of Fighting series, Takuma Sakazaki retires from the fighting scene and Ryo takes the identity of Mr. Karate. This new Mr. Karate travels the world proving the power of Kyokugenryu Karate. He appeared in South Town and in Japan, during the Buriki One '99 Tokyo tournament.
Mr. Karate variant of Ryo was only playable in Maximum Impact series’ games. Ryo’s canonical promotion as Mr. Karate eventually started in the New Age Saga.
Ryo was Mr. Karate in Fatal Fury:Wild Ambition, Buriki-One and Neo Geo Battle Coliseum. The only time he wore the mask was in MI2: regulation A. And his Wild Ambition Mr. Karate form was his alternate.
YURI FITNESS CLUB 👍
Ryo wore the mask in KOF maximum Impact Regulation A which is supposedly in canon with the AOF/FF timeline.
Isn't canon neither, Falcoon said once that the series was intent to mix definitively both KOF and Fatal Fury/AoF universes but that idea never work out, so they make MI series like a another universe
@@000mjd Thanks for clarifying. I always thought MI was meant to be canon with the AOF/FF timeline.
@@IrishKyokushincurrently there are two separate fighting game timelines. The first is what I like to call the 'Southtownverse' which is AoF, FF and Buriki 1. You could also argue that Savage Reign and Kizuna Encounter are part of this timeline since these two games are set in a distopian far future Southtown.
The second timeline is the KOFverse where all the KOF games fall under, plus other IPs that has not yet become permanent KOF fixture like Metal Slug and Samsho.
@@antz32 Yep. Then what we still have to see is if Oda actually is determined to respect the existing lore 100%... or if he is willing to make some old lore changes/retcons to fit his vision for the franchise in this context of a revival that is a direct sequel. I mean, if the FF does well and SNK allows sequels, Oda will have to handle this MOTW/future from now on, that will be the actual "standard FF story"... like any anime time skip arc. So maybe some retcons would be welcome for the sake of the story continuation.
Like, for now i still havent made my mind in advance about my own tolerance with retcons if they happen. Maybe i would just judge the retcon depending on what it is, rather than having a generalized positive/negative statement.
8:18 I think we might see Yuri as a DLC fighter I mean Rashid Butt has Ryo,Takanuma/Mr.Karate fighting style and She might borrow few Robert moves (I know the Tiger logo on drum is also a reference to him) to be distinct enough or something
You forgot to mention that the balls present in the scene represent the colors of the Brazilian flag (blue with a white stripe, yellow and green) Marco Radrigues is Brazilian and even appears with the Brazilian team shirt at the end of the Art of Fighting team in KOF XV
Kyokugen Bear 🐻 predates Kung Fu Panda 🐼 by 9 years
I hope yuri and the other AOF characters look just like that Kyokugen art by Hiroaki. It rrally gives us an image about the future. Im so hyped.
According to the story (which isn't even on the official site...), Marco lost the dojo's sign (the one he pulls out in his win pose), and is now renting out space from Yuri's gym. Wonder if the person who took the sign is in the tournament.
Mr karate as the final boss would be interesting of geese howard not kain in this time line could work as well mr big as a sub boss and the return of krauser khushnood butt finally a ryukoranbu
I think Yuri will be the owner of training gym club
Yes! The nerdy kid is back! I guess another little easter egg is the colors of the balls in the net on the ceiling being brazilian flag colors.
Nice to see my main coming back wish Marco was added as part of the AoF team in KOF king, Yakima and yuri are fine but they’re always removed for the old goats and girls teams
It would be cool if the Harry Potter boy got made into a playable character and they made him into a joke character like Dan.
餓狼伝説でユリの名前が出てくると思ってなかったので、この設定が公開された時は驚きました。
疑問なのは、COtWの世界線ではユリはロバートと結婚しているのでしょうか…？
And he’s name is not butt anymore
🤓💕
Hello man, do you authorize me to react to your video?
Hate all those special effect even on normal moves... They re only ridiculous and hide the action... I want to see the punch hitting enemies not pieces of glasses flying everywhere. Every latest beat em up has those exaggerate and ridiculous effect... Sf6 has paint, tekken fireworks and this one glasses... Mah
