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]]

* [[Expository Hairstyle Change]] - In ''Mark of the Wolves'', he changes his clothes ''and'' cut his long hair.

** In Hokutomaru's ending from ''Garou'', Andy praises his disciple for his growth as a fighter, but then states that their relationship is no longer that of master and student, but that of two rivals.

* [[Ship Tease]] - With Mai in the anime. The games make it more one-sided.

* [[White-Haired Pretty Boy]] - Shadow Andy (his EX version from ''Real Bout Special'') is this and a [[Dark-Skinned Blond]].

 

== Joe Higashi ==

* [[Badass Grandpa]] - You know damn well that age is clearly not slowing this guy down.

* [[Bald of Awesome]]

* [[Everything's Better with Spinning]] - Senpu Ken and Senpu Gou Ken is him spinning himself around like a dervish.

* [[Old Master]]

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

* [[Shout-Out]] - Has lots of things in common with Kame Sennin/Master Roshi from ''[[Dragon Ball]]'', but his personality is different (especially in that he's not a pervert).

* [[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.]]

 

{{quote|Geese Howard's British right-hand man. He wields a staff that freely separates into multiple chained sections, and which he can light on fire. His devotion to Geese is total, and if you want to get to Geese, you have to go through Billy. [[Big Brother Instinct|Only his sister]] [[Morality Pet|is closer to him]].}}

 

* [[Big Brother Instinct]] - To his sister Lilly. Needless to say, he ''does not'' approve of Joe and Lilly dating.

* [[Daiki Nakamura]] - Seiyuu for the first anime special.

* [[The Dragon]] - To Geese.

* [[The Syndicate]] - Howard Connection is this, although Geese fools the people by using his seemingly benevolent actions and the police force as a front.

* [[Trademark Favorite Food]] - Rare steak.

* [[Wearing a Flag on Your Head|Wearing A Flag On Your Back]] - For his first appearance only, the American flag was plastered onto the back of Geese's dogi.

* [[Ninja]]

* [[Paper Fan of Doom]]

* [[Playing with Fire]]

{{quote|A Korean Taekwondo expert and champion of '''justice'''! He's also a pretty good father, and his sons are his foremost students.}}

 

* [[Animal Motifs]] - [[The Phoenix]]. In the ''Real Bout'' series, Kim can even inexplicably [[Summon Magic|summon]] [[Hot Wings|one]] at the end of his [[Limit Break|Hou'ou Kyaku]].

* [[Daiki Nakamura]] - Seiyuu in the anime specials and in [[The Movie]].

* [[David Kaye]] - Dub voice for the above.

* [[Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas]]

* [[Expy]] - Possibly, of George Foreman.

* [[Jerkass]]

* [[Hirotaka Suzuoki]] - Seiyuu in the anime special.

* [[Lightning Bruiser]]

* [[Noble Demon]] - To a degree. He's not ''evil'' per se, just a major [[Combat Pragmatist]] who doesn't have any mercy on his opponents, yet is more or less pleasant while not fighting.

* [[Paul Dobson]] - Dub voice in the anime special. And he actually makes Krauser sound German.

{{quote|[[Guest Fighter]] from the ''[[Art of Fighting]]'' series, where he serves as the protagonist and main character. The son of Takuma Sakazaki, older brother of Yuri Sakazaki, and best friend/rival of Robert Garcia. Practices Kyokugenryu karate, which was created by his father. Originally appeared in ''Fatal Fury Special'' as a hidden boss character. Canonically, he is considerably older than the main cast of ''Fatal Fury'', which is reflected in his second appearance during ''Wild Ambition'' (where he uses the moniker "Mr. Karate II", which is taken from his father's on-again, off-again persona).}}

 

* [[Animal Motifs]] - The dragon. Goes by the [[Red Baron|nickname]] of "The Invincible Dragon."

* [[Badass Beard]]/[[Perma-Stubble]] - In ''Wild Ambition''. It is ''glorious''.

* [[But Not Too Foreign]] - His dad is Japanese, his mom is American.

* [[The Cameo]] - As said above, his inclusion in ''Special'' [[The Unexpected|came out of nowhere]].

* [[Hair Color Dissonance]] - Is supposed to be blond, but appears to have a bit of an orange hue in this game.

* [[Ki Attacks]]

* [[Bruce Lee Clone]] - Subverted. He has the nunchaku and trademark high-pitched [[Kiai]], but he takes more pages from [[Jackie Chan]].

* [[Expy]] - Of [[Jackie Chan]].

* [[Justice Will Prevail]] - He's a [[Supercop]]. Besides helping to introduce Kim to his wife Myeng Swuk, the two are good friends due to their shared interest in upholding justice. Oddly enough, Hon Fu isn't ''nearly'' as justice-obsessed as Kim is.

* [[Toshiyuki Morikawa]] - His seiyuu. '''MAJOR''' [[Playing Against Type]], if you remember what kind of roles Morikawa plays.

* [[The Worf Effect]] - In-story, when you go fight Yamazaki with Kim in ''Fatal Fury 3'', he has already curb-stomped Hon Fu.

* [[Chinese People]]

* [[Demonic Possession]] - He and Chonrei are possessed by the spirits of their 2,200-year-old ancestors.
