Fatal Fury/Characters: Difference between revisions

* [[Char Clone]] - Based on [[Street Fighter|Ken Masters]], who happens to be a [[Char Clone]], making him a [[Char Clone]] by proxy.

* [[Combat Pragmatist]] - While he gained some training from Tung Fu Rue, the bulk of his technique was self-taught from years of wandering the streets, getting into fights, and simply figuring out what worked and what didn't.

* [[Disappeared Dad]] - Jeff.

* [[Eagle Land]]

** [[Her Heart Will Go On|His Heart Will Go On]] - ''Twice'', in fact. [[Iron Woobie|Poor guy]]. Just be thankful that Blue Mary wasn't introduced, or she too may have been subjugated to this.

* [[Heroic BSOD]] - Suffers from one due to {{spoiler|the [[Heroic Sacrifice|death]] of Sulia in [[The Movie]].}} He recovers quickly, just in time to {{spoiler|''[[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?|curbstomp]]'' '''''[[Physical God|Mars, the God of War]]'''''}}.

* [[The Hero]]

** For bonus points, ''AOF'' 's John Crawley is playing ''Fatal Fury 2'' next to Terry in said artwork.

* [[I Know Madden Kombat]] - The Power Dunk is a modified slam dunk.

* [[Blow You Away]] - Uses wind-based projectiles.

* [[Boisterous Bruiser]]

* [[Demoted to Extra]] - Since the ''KOF'' series started, he's gone further and further into the background.

* [[Hachimaki]] - [[Wearing a Flag On Your Head|With the Japanese flag on it]].

* [[Large Ham]]

* [[Nobuyuki Hiyama]] - His seiyuu since ''Fatal Fury 3''.

* [[The Other Darrin]] - Katsuhisa Namase to [[Nobuyuki Hiyama]].

* [[Talking to Himself]] - Katsuhise Namase voiced Joe, Billy, Geese, and Laurence in ''2'' and ''Special''.

* [[Walking Shirtless Scene]]

* [[Old Master]]

* [[Schrodingers Cat]] - Died in the first anime special, but is still alive in the game series.

* [[Cloudcuckoolander]] - Due to hilarious [[Bowdlerization]] of his win quotes.

* [[Super Mode]] - In the first game only, right after losing 1/3 of his life and until losing another third, he would morph into a hulking giant much stronger than his regular self. [[Temporary Bulk Change|In later games his ability to become gigantic like this is used more freely.]]

** [[Dragon Their Feet]] - Implied in the cellphone novel ''Stray Dog, Stray Wolf''.

* [[Gratuitous English]]/[[Surprisingly Good English]] - Depends.

* [[Morality Pet]] - Lilly, too.

* [[No Smoking]] - His one pet peeve. He wears the sign on the back of his jacket and [[Berserk Button|will knock the block off of anyone who blows smoke in his face]]. The only exception to this rule would seem to be Geese.

** ... but the fact he is English probably means that it ''should'' be pronounced "Cane."

* [[Shirtless Scene]] - Somewhat. He wears a jacket, but no shirt underneath.

* [[Simple Staff]]

* [[Super Strength]] - Relatively speaking, it would take a great deal of might to properly utilize a three-section staff held together by chains with great tensile strength.

** His ''Real Bout Special'' form's name of "Nightmare Geese" started out as this as well. ''The King of Fighters Maximum Impact 2'' [[Sure Why Not|canonized it]].

* [[Good Scars, Evil Scars]] - Has a nasty scar on his back from the survival of his first fall. He also has a gaping slash mark going across his chest, believed to have been inflicted by {{spoiler|Krauser when Geese had attempted to kill their father.}}

* [[Hidekatsu Shibata]] - Seiyuu in the anime special and [[The Movie]].

* [[Immortality]] - Speculation rages over whether Geese received immortality from the Jin scrolls.

* [[Hammerspace]] - Where she keeps all of her fans.

** Seems to overlap with [[Victoria's Secret Compartment]].

* [[Highly-Visible Ninja]]

* [[Kotono Mitsuishi]] - Her seiyuu in the anime specials.

* [[Lisa Ann Beley]] - Dub voice for [[The Movie]], [[The Other Darrin|taking over from]] Sarah Sawatsky in the second anime special.

* [[Ms. Fanservice]] - To [[Flanderization]] levels.

* [[Ninja]]

* [[Paper Fan of Doom]]

* [[She Fu]]

* [[She's Got Legs]]

* [[Stripperiffic]] - Since the very start, but the anime exaggerated it much further, and the spinoff games also ran with it.

* [[Yamato Nadeshiko]] - Mai is suppossed to be one (or at least believes to be), and to her credit, she tries hard. [[media:[[Mai Teas]].jpg|One of the official arts]] has her wearing a kimono while apparently hosting a tea ceremony for Terry and Andy, and this is invoked again in ''[[media:000s8dcq.png|The King Of Fighters: KYO]]'' during one of Kyo and Yuki's dates.

* [[Flanderization]] - His love of '''JUSTICE'''!

* [[Hair Flip]] - His [http://snk.wikia.com/wiki/File:Kimkaphwanrbff.gif sprite] for the ''Real Bout'' series has Kim doing this.

* [[Hot Dad]]

* [[Kiai]] - Whenever he starts whipping out his specials, expect the sound barrier to be utterly ''[[No Indoor Voice|broken]]''.

* [[Love Freak]]

* [[Martial Pacifist]] - Although he occasionally shows flashes of being a [[Technical Pacifist]] when confronting villains.

* [[Talking to Himself]] - Satoshi Hashimoto voices Terry and Kim.

* [[Team Dad]] - To his ''entire'' Taekwondo school.

* [[Blood Knight]]

* [[Blow You Away]] - Gigatech Cyclone.

* [[Clothing Damage]] - Self-inflicted, no less! [[Lampshade Hanging|Poked at]] with his ''Real Bout 2'' ending, where his butlers become more and more PO'ed at having to refit Krauser's armor just for him to break out of it. Eventually, they [[Megaton Punch|uppercut]] him into the stratosphere.

* {{spoiler|[[Driven to Suicide]] - According to ''Memories of Stray Wolves'', Krauser committed suicide sometime after his loss at the hands of Terry.}}

* [[Public Domain Soundtrack]] - [[Ominous Latin Chanting|Dies Irae]] in ''Fatal Fury 2'' and ''Special''. [[Ominous Latin Chanting|Lacrimosa]] in the ''Real Bout'' series.

* [[Ret Canon]] - Originally, Krauser was simply a rival crimelord whom Geese was afraid to take on. The anime specials established Krauser and Geese's relationship as that of {{spoiler|half-brothers}} and SNK went with this scenario for the games from ''Fatal Fury Special'' and onward.

* [[Shirtless Scene]] - When he breaks out of that armor, that is.

* [[SNK Boss]]

* [[Spirited Competitor]]

* [[Bonus Boss]]

* [[Fingerless Gloves]]

* [[Fun Personified]]

* [[Brainwashed|Brainwashing]] - White's preferred method of dealing with rivals.

* [[But for Me It Was Tuesday]] - White with Alfred's village.

* [[Eviler Than Thou]] - Enthralls Billy Kane, Geese's former [[The Dragon|Dragon]], to his will.

* [[Evil Eye]] - Wields a rod with an eyeball atop it, which figures largely in most of his attacks.

* [[Facial Markings]] - Which look like eyeliner.

** [[Fanon]] seems to go with the former, since it gives him a ulterior motive for going after Billy.

* [[Keiji Fujiwara]] - His seiyuu, in a ''grand'' case of [[Playing Against Type]].

* [[Psychic Powers]] - Mind control and precognition, mainly. He's also got some illusion-generating abilities, which hints at telepathy.

* [[Psychopathic Manchild]]

* [[SNK Boss]] - Can't jump, duck, dash, or block, but has high priority over ''everything''.

* [[Taking You With Me]] - [[Kaizo Trap|After being beaten]], White fires a desperation attack that kills your character instantly if it connects unless your character blocks low or jumps over it. But afterward you have a couple of seconds to [[Can't Get Away With Nuthin'|make him pay dearly for cheating against you]].

** [[But Not Too Foreign]] - His dad is a Native American, but his mom is Caucasian.

* [[Multicolored Hair]] - [[White-Haired Pretty Boy]] and black[[Hair Color Dissonance|/]][[You Gotta Have Blue Hair|blue]].

* [[Walking Shirtless Scene]]

* [[Ascended Extra]] - Only for this game. Makes a cameo latter as one of the Lillien Knights under B. Jenet's service.

=== Characters introduced in ''Fatal Fury: Wild Ambition'' ===

* [[Angst]] - Or [[Wangst]].

* [[Disappeared Dad]] - We're still not sure whether Geese actually died or if it was just a case of [[Never Found the Body]].

* [[Eiji Takemoto]] - His seiyuu's first famous role.

** '''[[Ace Attorney (Visual Novel)|OBJECTION!!!]]'''

* [[No Social Skills]] - Rock can function normally in society, but since [[Raised By Dudes|he grew up surrounded mainly by men]], [[Adorkable|he's flustered by women]], hence his shy reaction to B. Jenet (whom he suggests to get less revealing clothes). However, this doesn't stop him from helping those in need (as seen in his interactions with Hotaru).

* [[Oedipus Complex]] - Rock is pretty much ''defined'' by his hate of his [[Disappeared Dad]], Geese Howard.

* [[Suspiciously Similar Song]] - Part of his theme, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=flPBoVYkyx4 "Spread the Wings,"] is taken from Robert Miles's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCbO-3hjPok "Children."] It's purely intentional, as the composer is a fan of Miles.

** [[Cool Mask]]

* [[Mighty Glacier]]

* [[Spinning Piledriver]] - [[In a Single Bound|Ahem...]] [[Meteor Move|Big]]. [[Finishing Move|Fall]].

* [[Talking to Himself]] - Shares a seiyuu (Hikaru Hanada) with Butt.

* [[Never Found the Body]] - He's shot by SWAT teams in his ending and falls into a river, his fate never revealed.

* [[Serial Killer]]

* [[Wolverine Claws]]

* [[Big Eater]] - One of his winposes has him eating two large apples and a bomb in one gulp each.

* [[Fragile Speedster]]

* [[Junko Takeuchi]] - His seiyuu. Years later, she'd go on to voice [[Naruto (Manga)|Naruto]], [[Hilarious in Hindsight|another loud-mouthed, hyperactive ninja]].

* [[Ninja]]

* [[Carpet of Virility]]

* [[Does Not Like Shoes]] - All official artwork depicts him barefoot. [[Overly Narrow Superlative|All three of them!]]

* [[Hammerspace]] - One of his winposes has him pull out a wooden panel as big as he is. Fine and dandy until [[Fridge Logic|you realize the implications]] of [[Willfully Weak|him being as competent a fighter as everyone else]] [[With My Hands Tied|even though he carries several pounds of wood underneath his dogi]].

* [[Hermit Guru]] - Deliberately lives and trains in a forest, away from the city, with the aforementioned bear.

* [[Hotblooded Sideburns]] - Full force.

* [[I'm a Humanitarian]] - Hopefully he's joking, but the sight of Tizoc makes Marco hungry. He mistakes him for a giant poultry.

* [[Real Men Wear Pink]] - [[All There in the Manual|His profile specifically mentions]] a tendency to cry while reading Disney picture books.

* [[Scary Black Man]]

* [[Detect Evil]] - Inherited his father's "justice sense."

* [[Generation Xerox]] - Played straight at first, but Jae's ending has him contemplating on if following his father 100% is the right way to go.

* [[Instant Fanclub]] - Has one. Sausu herself is a part of their ranks.

* [[Playing With Fire]]

* [[This Is Unforgivable!]] - "Evil cannot be forgiven!"

* [[Knight Templar]] - Wholeheartedly supports Kain's plan to build a better Southtown through survival of the fittest cullings.

* [[Secret Stab Wound|Secret Bullet Wound]] - Hides an injury he received protecting Kain, a bullet which is ''still lodged in his chest''.

* [[SNK Boss]] - Very powerful, yet is playable by using a code.

* [[Playing With Fire]] - Wields blue flames (purple in-game) similar to those of the Orochi.

** Of course... some circles believe him to have ties to Orochi.

** [[Cain and Abel]], anyone? It's [[In Name Only]], but still...

* [[SNK Boss]] - Is playable by using a code, but is harder to control than Grant, since many of his moves are charge attacks.

* [[Femme Fatale]]

* [[Friend to All Children]] - We see that she's not [[The Vamp]] when Terry catches her giving food and money to the local street children.

* [[High Heel Face Turn]]

** [[Love Redeems]]

* [[Fiery Redhead]]

* [[Hero Worshipper]] - Idolizes [[Big Brother Mentor|Terry]], which leads to a subversion when Terry goes through his drunken [[Heroic BSOD]].

* [[Masami Kikuchi]] - His seiyuu.

* [[Healing Hands]] - Her powers.

* {{spoiler|[[Heroic Sacrifice]]}}

* [[Intimate Healing]] - After Terry's first fight with Jamin, his injuries are so serious that she strips down and lays with him to let her healing take full effect. Some cuddling, a [[You Must Be Cold]] moment and a bittersweet talk take place then. [[Heartwarming Moments (Sugar Wiki)|Awwwwww.]]

* [[Half-Identical Twins]]

* [[Proper Lady]]: Beautiful, polite, soft-spoken but not an [[Extreme Doormat]], and extremely coolheaded when push comes to shove.

* [[She's Got Legs]] - She's actually introduced [[Male Gaze|legs first]]. (That one's kinda justified as that particular take also included Jae Hoon, who's a very short kid back then.)

* [[This Is Something He's Got to Do Himself]] - When Kim is being trounced by {{spoiler|Cyber Cheng}}, Joe gets pissed off and decides to help; however, Terry asks Joe to not intervene because doing so would crush the faith of Myeng Swuk and (most importantly) Kim's sons. Cue to a shot of Myeng Swuk staring at her husband's fight and holding her scared kids comfortingly, [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|completely focused on staying calm and on trusting Kim no matter what.]]

* [[The Dragon]]

* [[Graceful Loser]]

* [[Kenji Utsumi]] - His seiyuu.

* [[Lightning Bruiser]] - When Terry first clashes with him, Jamin is shown to have the [[Super Speed|upper hand in the speed department]]. Terry also notes that he's as strong as Krauser, a foe whom he ''barely'' defeated.
