* [[
▲* [[Added Alliterative Appeal]]: The tournament in both games is called the Great Grapple.
* [[Attack Its Weak Point]]: Subverted. Attacking a certain part of the body will cause an article of clothing to be knocked off, such as Ryoko's headband, [[Fridge Logic|the lightning bolt on Ray's shirt]] or Fei-Lin's breastplate (don't worry, she ''is'' wearing something under it). At this point, the character becomes dizzy for that round. The first game also had your characters take more damage when it was removed. For bonus points, the character-specific weak points [[Flash of Pain|flash white when about to fly off]], akin to the "[[Konami]] seizure time."
* [[Beauty Is Never Tarnished]]: The worst the female competitors get are tattered clothing, a few hairs out of place, and bandages. The guys... aren't so lucky.
Line 13 ⟶ 11:
* [[Calling Your Attacks]]
* [[Camp Gay]]: Clown's endings in the Japanese versions actually involves him trying to pick up younger men. The endings were altered in the English versions to downplay Clown's homosexuality, yet the manual for ''Karnov's Revenge'' still makes references to his sexual preference by stating that he likes "young boys" and is seeking an "attractive male fighter."
* [[Canon Immigrant]]: Mizoguchi was included as a bonus character in the home port of ''[[
** Chelnov, from Data East's old arcade game of the same name, appears as the final boss in ''Mizoguchi Kiki Ippatsu!!'', making him the other character in the series from an old DECO game besides Karnov.

Line 19 ⟶ 17:
* [[Demoted to Extra]]: Ray, Marstorious, Jean, Samchay, and Matlock in the Super Famicom spinoff. They're not playable fighters, but they still appear in the game's story mode.
* [[Does Not Like Shoes]]: Ryoko and Mizoguchi.
* [[Extremity Extremist]]: [[Kick Chick|Liu Yungmie]], the [[
* [[Expy]]: Mizoguchi seems to be partially based on Momotaro Tsurugi from ''[[
** Yungmie is more or less a Korean Chun-Li, although how explicitly varies from appearance to appearance.
* [[Guest Fighter]]: Aside of Mizoguchi's stint in ''KOF MI:RA'', he and ''Dynamite'' newcomer Yungmie also popped up in ''Suiko Enbu: Fuunsaiki'' ([[No Export for You|Japan-only sequel]] to ''Outlaws of the Lost Dynasty''/''Dark Legend''). Mizoguchi also made a cameo as a hidden boss in ''Kenka Bancho: Badass Rumble''.
* [[Large Ham]]: Karnov ('''"BALLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!"'''), Marstorius ('''"DOUBLE''' German!"), (Zazie ("Hell '''FIRE!"''')...
* [[No Celebrities Were Harmed]]: Like her ''[[
* [[Razor Wind]]: Matlok's Spinning Wave.
* [[Spotlight-Stealing Squad]]: Ray is the main character of the series, but Mizoguchi became more popular and even starred in the Super Famicom-exclusive final game in the series.
* [[Spotlight-Stealing Title]]: ''Fighter's History Dynamite'' was released as ''Karnov's Revenge'' overseas due to the cult popularity of ''Karnov''.
