"Kusaregedo" roughly means "Disgusting bastard." He was a "nice" guy in life with the sole exception that he was a cannibal, and that's why he transformed into a cannibalistic oni in death, who particularly enjoys the meat of young girls. In his ending in Samsho 5, he meets with his daughter, who says she still loves him and he has a moment of reflection before he winds up killing and eating her. Guy's seriously a messed up character. In Samsho 6, his ending's a bit...funnier? in that he winds up eating the whole damn cast. lol

Classic Voldo. I always enjoyed how vicious he could be from any height/even (especially) if he was turned backwards, plus how deceptively far his reach was, considering how short his katars were compared to the weapons of the other fighters.

[@MongoTheMagnificent666]

I always played with Voldo, Asteroth, or Yoshimitsu. Lol my friends started getting mad once when I was winning with Voldo, claiming I was just button mashing to victory, until I started calling out every combo and bizarre attack right before I did it. They learned real quick that I was just good with him. Just like with Asteroth, he's slow as hell, but almost every attack he does can be chained together in some way to make psuedo-combos and utilize his MANY grab attacks. I kinda miss getting down couch VS match style

Unrelated but thorgi's arcade does a lot of fighting game content and is currently starting to branch out

[@themightycongueror8383]

I'm pretty garbage at fighting games, but, one thing I have to give all fighting games credit for, is their insanely good character designs, and crazy backstories for their characters, pretty much every fighting game in existence can separate itself from any other game in it's genre because they all have their own unique style, and characters, even if they all have fighting in common. I can't think of any other genre that can do that, like with shooters, it's really hard to stand out as a shooter, but with a fighting game, all you need is a unique premise, and characters, and boom, you're already on your way to separate yourself from the competition.

[@Macrochenia]

True Ogre's creepiness is greatly diminished by the fact that he's an absolutely bottom-tier fighter.

[@kaya6320]

Same with Voldo. It’s sad

[@nybethobdilord6912]

Not bottom tier. He's low-mid and he has pretty good tournament success in tag 2. In tag 1 he's top 4 and each of those characters can be debated for num 1. In 3 he was only bottom tier cuz of an infinite glitch on him but if he didn't have that then he would easily be num 1 in that game.

[@KwadDamyj]

Also that like any other Tekken fighter the right kinds of attacks will slap him somersaulting backwards through the air like he was a plush toy, which is absolutely HYSTERICAL given his hulking size.

There are a lot of implications that Q has some connection to G. They fight in similar styles and take similar poses. They are also complete ciphers. From Skullgirls, there are Painwheel and Double.

Yay for Hisako! Heard somewhere that Q is supposed to be a parody of an old comic character (possibly Mr A). Not sure how true that is. Surprised none of the Skullgirls cast made the list.

[@yeshua7238]

Just gonna point out that Blanka is Brazilian, not a “jungle man.” It just so happens that Brazilians are bright green and shoot electricity.

[@0ceanicify]

Point of order: He's not Brazilian - he just grew up in Brazil after crashing in a plane. See his ending where his real name is Jimmy.

[@mottledmotmot2130]

Ah that's why their national flag has green and yellow. The more you know.

[@Aitaitaitai]

So Laura is half an imposter because she only has electricity and Sean is just straight up lying to us, got it. The rules of Brazil are really confusing.

[@KwadDamyj]

Can we swap luck? Where I grew up the only local superpower is the ability to do all the meth, all the time. ...You know, that's not THAT bad a power, but it's not as useful as shooting electricity.

[@cam7990]

Apparently Blanka learned how to conduct electricity from encounters with electric eels, and his green skin came from constant use of chlorophyll as camouflage, which he did so much that it somehow permanently embedded into his skin and turned it green (iirc)

[@wesleyharris1723]

Nearly forgot about Merkava from Under Night in-BIRTH. A monstrous being with a human conscience is truly a terrifying thing indeed. Also Noodle arms...

When im lying in bed with my kitty i love rewatching these! Brings me joy!

Q is Nick Valentine from Fallout 4. XD

[@kevdogyt08ti]

When I first found out about the characters Zappa, Voldo, Q, Kusaregedo, Yoshimitsu, True Ogre - I was always curious about them... They do belong on horror games, TV shows, and movies. 💀

[@p.d.l7023]

"That mask! You can only be evil!!!" The answer to: What everyone yells at me when I go anywhere since early 2000.

[@EmonyLP]

Q is clearly Nick Valentine in a slightly cleaner trenchcoat.

[@Datboi_23]

Ok, I’m saying it right now: Q looks like the Mysterious Stranger from Fallout 4

[@nixiestarlight158]

A little bit, yea, but to put it in perspective, the whole tan overcoat, tie and fedora look has been used for many characters that are supposed to be, well, mysterious.

[@Jackie_XIII]

And here I was thinking of Mr x from resident evil

[@bineshchand3909]

The description is utterly hilarious!

[@doveingly]

amazing the zappa entry didn't even mention how truly scary him getting sword is

[@vcggumbs]

Voldo scared me as kid since Soulblade. He's mad creepy

[@kingtaco258]

With all the fighting games there are, i feel that this video could end up having at least 5 parts.

[@stuntbounce]

One of the best video ideas ive seen. This is crazy 😂😖😂

[@JervisGermane]

Kusaregedo is the most accurate depiction of my inner demons I've seen yet

[@KristiChan1]

How effective is it to tell a spirit back-talking you through its victim that they're not being very nice?

[@FightingDuskstalker]

"Each individual character is subjected to a different grotesque experiment to satisfy Relius' scientific curiosity." Yes... his *scientific* curiosity... and nothing else...

[@Ramsey276one]

What do he do to his WIFE SND DAUGHTER, again?

[@chrisalejado1396]

Good thumbnail choice! Kusaregedo! i recognized him right away

[@deevan1415]

I remember playing Soul Caliber 2, and Voldo was my favorite character.

[@stewartglencrose9023]

I always imagine Prudence’s spiderclimb looks the same as Voldo on all fours

[@marhawkman303]

nah, the ghost girl in the #1 spot. Prudence probably doesn't bend over backwards

[@savvythedivineyethuggable7493]

10:05 Okay, you have clearly seen Arakune, so why didn't you pick him? I was actually hoping he would be on here! Sure, Relius has that finnisher, but Arakune has even creepier lore *and* just looks like a monster both in nature and dialogue. What did Relius have that Arakune didn't?

[@ryancraig110]

He is still a good guy deep inside relius however doesn't even have an ounce of goodness in his heart all he cares about is his science and advancement in said science regardless of how much pain it causes arakune however does feel remorse for his actions in his moments of clarity on top of the fact of not being in control off his actions which makes relius more creepy and evil cos he knows full well what he's doing and just doesn't care

[@savvythedivineyethuggable7493]

@@ryancraig110 Okay, fair.

I really enjoy Andy's fighting game themed lists.

[@Maxim.Nazarenko]

00:30 - Hisako (Killer Instinct) 02:08 - Zappa (Guilty Gear) 03:36 - Voldo (Soulcalibur) 05:13 - Q (Street Fighter) 06:17 - Kusaregedo (Samurai Shodown) 07:33 - True Ogre (Tekken) 08:29 - Relius Clover (Blazblue)

[@Jonathon_Hennessey]

Painwheel from Skullgirls in her backstory she was abducted and turned into a monster. There's also Double from the same game at the start of each round she transforms from a nun into some kind of lovecraftian type creature.

[@sambridgett]

Andy's got hold of the upload button again everyone

[@MrPyro66]

Hisako's theme slaps though, and you can't deny that, no matter how unsettling.

[@apocalypsexak]

No Jack from Power Stone?! Immortal serial killer, looks like a mummy, and moves like a spider… now that’s nightmare fuel if you ask me.

[@raeishimura]

I was very happy to see Hisako on this list. A good list aside from Relius. I mean, I can see human experimentation being unpleasant, but he doesn't really seem all that creepy to me. Evil, but not really creepy.

[@EternumTagerMain]

Relius is actively terrifying in lore, his position is justified.

[@AidanThomasPeckham]

For the commenter edition - Yoshimitsu deserves recognition. Everyone in a hand to hand fighting tournament understood the rules, even a bear, but the Demon/Alien/Samurai?? Nope, he gets two magic/tech katanas

[@DimensionalMola]

Fuck yeah! Yoshimitsu!

[@luismancilla7815]

Awesome list!

[@ignfan4life]

This list delivers. I was definitely creeped out.
