King of Fighters : Another Day
Okay, I'm kinda surprised there arent any topic dedicated to this, so why not?
Well anyway, there're already 2 eps, the first one is about Alba and Soiree where they had already successfuly taken over South Town from Duke, and of course, the one who's causing all the troubles (flames and shits) is highly possibly, Spoiler:
We also have Mai and Athena, though they barely do anything In ep 2 (my favourite so far) we have Rock Howard, as you probably know (or not), Rock's dad, Geese Howard, died the exact same way that was shown in the fights between Terry and Rock, the only difference is that Rock was the one that's shown in the fight instead of Geese, hence make it a "nightmare". Geese Howard himself was a crime boss in the King of Fighter series, and had inhereted the ultimate cursed-blood on which he learned from various martial-arts, and finally the very same evil-blood were passed on to Rock. Billy was Geese's most faithfull right-hand man, picked up by Geese in some circumstances. Rock hated his father because Geese left his mother Julia ( a very wealthy German conglomerate) for his own purpose. Lian was an assasin sent to murder anyone connected with the Howard Connection ( an American corporate juggernaut led by Geese), and that's about it. From what we know is that, Spoiler:
Personally, I think the OVA was more targeted to the hardcore fans of the series rather , because it really lacked storytelling not to mention plot. Only those familiar enough with the series would probably understand wtf is this all about -_- ;;; , not to mention its too frickin short. This OVA is DEFINITELY a prelude for the next KoF merchandise, King of Fighter : Maximum Impact 2, and this OVA barely stand on its own, that's why it's kinda dissapointing. But I'm satisfied nevertheless, to see some of my favourite characters animated...... Oh well you can't expect much, but SNK had become lazy...... Anyway, thoughts, comments? |

Yeah I was thinking about making a thread, but you did it so
As for the OAV, yes it's very short >_<! But I really like it, especially the second episode ( I'm a big fan of Fatal Fury and Rock ) Too bad we didn't see more of Mai in the first one though Anyway, yes I doubt non SNK fan would enjoy it as much as I do ( That's the same problem with FF VII: Advent Children which I adore too ) Those OAV are pure fan service, and I like it! Also the ending song is great! ^^

MI 2 is one big raving disappointment too. But yeah, I didn't expect much from 5 minute promotional OVA's. Though they were enjoyable. (Mainly seeing mai in a higher quality anime form ) |

MI 2 main characters are still the Meira brothers, while the side-hero characters are seemed to be Kyo, Iori, K' and Rock. The villain is probably Luis, you can see her in one of the url posted above. Quote:
