Fighting Game Cartoons/Anime | Triple K.O.

[@macuser7048]

Heihachi eating an axe after catching it in his teeth is equal parts badass and hilarious.

[@TheRadiaforce]

the thing is, Virtua Fighter is a solid anime. A lot of the first season's fights are impactful, and some of the more complex moves even have this super hammy announcer being like "the solar plexus charge! the user shifts his bodyweight and lowers their centre of gravity to thrust his elbow into the sternum of his opponent. when done correctly, this move's power is... incalculable!" the Virtua Fighter anime has a lot of really good scenes in it; it's worth taking a look into.

[@AwijoshSun]

It's a shame that the second season hasn't even been subtitled in English, despite the first season having an entire dub

[@j2dacee]

Agree, Matt should watch VF.

[@YULIG3242]

I remember watching all the Virtua Fighter Anime episodes right before final showdown was debuting to playstation 3 and xbox 360. yet the thing is i never even heard about it until the youtube recommendation brought it up. so i guess it was a lucky shot for me for discovering this adaptation.

The Night Warriors Darkstalkers Revenge anime by Madhouse is still my favourite fighting game anime to this day. I think the animes version of Hsien-Ko is so much better then the games and the mood/music overall is fantastic.

It's amusing how Max says how VF stayed "pure" from all these story modes in fighting games that are all the rage now, but that's only because VF hasn't been around for any of that to happen to it.

[@shawziiz5031]

Let be real...i don't see how interesting VF story can be made since mostly their cast just fight the same naked lady as a villain for like every god damn game. I never understand why the hell Sega didn't even think to create unique final boss for each game

[@journie3042]

@@shawziiz5031 Dural fights actually change thru out the series having it's own gimmicks, Dural 1 is a copy cat of fighters, Dural in 2 has an underwater gimmick, Dural 3 dunno whats the difference other than her being gold , Dural in 4 is her being invisible and 5 has a second stance for her

[@shawziiz5031]

@@journie3042 Having different or new style of fight is basically normal for the fighter, is like they keep improving. What I meant here is why the hell is just her as the final boss every single game. Is just dumb. And it even more dumb when her design is really just a faceless naked lady. I just don't get that. Is fine having the same boss in a few game like Bison in SF, Shao Kahn in MK, Heihachi in TK and Rugal in KOF...but when you just had the same boss in like every installment, yea that just boring. Of course this is a criticism in terms of idea and presentation. Gameplay wise, VF is solid. Is just bugs me how nobody in Sega can't even think to create a different boss. Is like they don't have idea at all.

If I recall. In kof another day. Rocks family home burns and the only picture of rocks mother "presumably" burned during the battles. When rock comes home the picture was in the room saved by Terry.

SFII: Victory has some fantastic dubs in some countries. The Brazillian dub is so recognizable that some phrases got in SFV localization. Ken used to say "ih, ó o cara, aí" (Hey, look at that guy, in English) as a way of translating "yare yare daze" or something like that. The voice actors used this line for Guile in the feature movie and in the animation movie as well.

[@g-bear83]

The Virtua Fighter anime I just finished recently and liked it quite a bit, despite how silly Akira is and how loud Pai is. Slow down to explain special moves is hilarious and awesome. The whole thing is extremely 90's.

[@zubrhero5270]

The Street Fighter 2 Animated Movie, when I watched it in like 1995, at 12 years old... Was one of the most important moments in my life really, looking back, and really did shape my teen years. It introduced me to alternative music _kinda_ with KMFDM and Korn in the soundtrack, and it introduced me (I think, if not earlier) to Manga Entertainment. It had blood, violence, swearing and a Chun Li shower scene... everything a growing boy needs. I've not seen it for years and I still quote it from time-to-time with my brother and friends. "Going somewhere Mr. Sellers?" and "My beautiful face is ruined. You bitch, I'll make you suffeeeeeeer."

[@MrTubeStuck]

[@orlanzo2621]

The VF anime was actually very good, I was surprised by how good it was. They are actually re-releasing it this year at some point. It was different from the games in a lot of ways but still entertaining. Also yea VF4 on PS2 sold very well. I think it was either 1.5 or 2 million copies sold.

I watched every FG related show/movie back then. There was a karaoke shop in West Covina that always had VCDs of FG movies and shows. From the same store, I got Dark Stalkers, Fatal Fury, Tekken, and Street Fighter 2 V. While they did have MK and SF USA there, I just caught those on TV.

I'd like to see an episode about concepts and mechanics. Like the guilty gear roman cancel, or Street fighter's v skills and drive impacts.

[@luxerhusku2609]

Matt, I think you should continue watching Virtua Fighter: The Animation, because while it is goofy, the fight scenes were actually pretty damn good and the show even explains the moves Akira does in the anime that he also does in the video games and my jaw dropped to see those moves being animated so realistically. Plus, there's a Virtua Cop reference near the end of the first Season. Yes, there are two Seasons, but the second season wasn't dubbed unfortunately.

[@terryandjoe]

I've liked pretty much all the FG anime I've watched for some reason or another. Maybe because I was just taking what I could get and made myself happy with it. In saying that, I will always LOVE the following: SF2 The Animated Movie, SF2 V (I still watch this series from time to time just because) and all three FF movies, especially the last two. Edit: come on, the SamSho movie was ok, in sub at least!

[@bluetarantulaproductions6179]

30:31 I totally agree with Matt about certain action figures back in the day that had rediculous vehicles (or variants of the actual figures) that didn't make any sense (including things that aren't video game related, like I don't remember Batman battling Two-Face or Riddler in a snow Batsuit in Batman Forever?)

I talked about this during a video, but, the shower scenes. The incident I remember specifically was the Tekken anime, I bought it on a school field trip (it was in the adult section and I had no idea that's where I was? I just saw Kazuya and made a beeline for the box), and wanted to watch it with my parents when I got home. What I didn't noticed on the box til it was too late was the "brief nudity" warning. I tried to put it out of my mind, and then in the opening, there's Jun in her underwear. My logic was, "OH, she's wearing briefs, that's brief nudity! I'm safe!" And then a few minutes later, Anna happened. My folks made me take the movie back, and I used the refund money to buy Resident Evil figures and a shitty PSX controller. ........but not before I made a copy to a blank VHS tape--

[@TheDrock08]

Virtual Fighter does have a story, Kage won the tournament multiple times, the most out of anyone in the series. the corporation kidnapped and experimented on Kage’s mom and that’s how Dural was formed.

Back in like late 90's, my cable started getting the U.K. Cartoon Network and it would have ads for MK Defenders of the Realm on Fox Kids and I was like: "Aww, man". Of course, years later actually saw the quality of that show and realized I didn't miss much. Then around 2004-2005 I'd get those SF, Fatal Fury, and Tekken animes and OVAs. There was also a whole Virtua Fighter show, but I've not watched that. 19:08 Because it was to "make up" for the live action Tekken movie. Like there's a quote going like: "There was a live action movie, but please forget about that". 27:32 It kinda doesn't, though. The episodes could literally go: we fighting Lin Kuei robots (not cyborgs), then not-Baraka shows up for no reason, then Sheeva shows up for no reason, then we fight random earth elementals, the a 7-headed monster shows up and then it ends. You can find a series of videos reviewing every episode here on KZbin. 35:10 That was Quan Chi's plan in his episode.

One fighting game anime that I wound up enjoying more than I thought I would is one that I'm sure no one else has ever heard of, simply because it never got licensed for English release & has even been more or less forgotten in Japan: Shinken Legend Tight Road. Never heard of that game? That's because the actual game never came out. However, a Shinken Legend fighting game was planned by publisher Zamuse, with Gust (yes, the Atelier Series people) supposedly set to develop it (it likely would have been Gust's first game as an official dev studio), but Zamuse wound up going out of business by the time the 12-episode TV anime series tie-in was ready to debut on TV in Japan, so the show wound up being promotion for absolutely nothing. However, the show itself is actually pretty enjoyable, with a solid (if standard) foundation to its plot (main character heads to island in search of how his father died, only to wind up fighting the forces of the man who killed the father in battle inside his gigantic tower), the cast is very much "a 90s fighting game" but well rounded & interesting (there's even a blatant Akuma-style "bonus boss" character who becomes the lead's rival), the music is really jazzy, the fights themselves are generally good & surprisingly grounded (there are no real projectiles being thrown about), and it has a solid ending to it. In a weird way, it's arguably one of the best fighting game anime of its era... and the fighting game it was based on never even happened!

[@ragingtyga]

Heh I like McMuscles but he tends to miss remember things. In the SF US cartoon, It was never about Ken being better than Ryu. The overall point to the plot involving Ken and Akuma, was Akuma was looking for a successor. He believed Ken to be that successor because he REMINDED him of when he was younger and trained with his Brother. Unlike his Brother (who was like Ryu), He was rash and reckless and willing to take risks, which was how he came to accept and learn the "Dark Hado". He was trying to tempt Ken into doing the same thing but Ken basically rejects it, abs manages to defeat him. It was somewhat of an interested take, because it's completely opposite from the source material where Ryu is the one Akuma views as a future pupil/Rival, because like him he began to be influenced by Satsui no Hado, but like Akuma, he rejects it
