Not a bad name, actually. These guys seem to be cool dads, Heidern in particular, but Saisyu and Takuma are honourable mentions. 😊

[@Panquedevainilla]

[@helengamboa1940]

Very true HAHAHA

[@hildasanchez1978]

It's the people that useter be in the king of fighters 95 and king of fighters 94

[@StrayLion]

I like all three of them. Normally old dudes are big, bombastic, over the top designs with immense strength and impossible physicality (like Heihachi and Soriz), or they're that gentle soul type with immeasurable mastery over the art (like Tung and Gen). These 3 are really just here for the fight.

[@o_oro-q1k]

The patriach of the Kusanagi clan, commander of the Ikari, and the Mr.Karate legend itself...these 3 aren't exactly basic either when you get down to it

[@azureprince9807]

Man, what an awesome KOF track. Much like this team is made up of these elder badasses, this track reminds me so much of my father. I remember as a kid, watching shows like He-Man, Thundercats and DBZ with my old man followed by watching him kicking ass on games like Tekken, Street Fighter and KOF till finally, he passed me down the controller. Without him, I wouldn't have the passion for fighting games that I have today, and still consider myself so fortunate to have him around to this day. Much like Kyo looking up to Saisyu, I too look up to my Dad as we still get out the controllers and have our evening KOF sessions

[@SaviourV]

You've got a cool dad, indeed.

[@FiasaPower]

Back then, we used to call it "the Dream Team" here in Brazil.

[@orlanzo2621]

This was always one of my favorite teams in KOF '98, so cool to see the veteran "dad" characters together on one team. I didn't like that they replaced Saisyu with Chin later in KOF UM 2002.

I always thought that Saisyu would fit as the final opponent for Kyo in The King of Fighters. Found it very epic.

[@SaviourV]

@Valeria Torres **Several whacks and tongue-lashings later, and after the dust clears, Saisyu is sitting down on the dojo's floor, smoking his pipe, while Kyo lies in a heap a few metres away...** *Saisyu:* Son, you have a long way to go before you can become a master. Don't feel too bad about it; I was once in your situation, many years ago, when your grandpa thrashed me. *Kyo:* Uuurrrrggghhh.... *Saisyu's inner voice:* Hah! Take *_THAT,_* Dad! After so long, I've managed to thrash someone from the Kusanagi line, even if it's *NOT* you!

@@Spamlethal_Valentino I'd vote for Leona as Meryl. Much more fitting, since she's a military girl. And of course, like Iori, she's got Orochi blood, so she's a prime candidate for causing mayhem.

Takuma, in his "normal" state, *deflected the Zero Cannon with a Haohshikouken to save King*. Not to mention there is his Mr. Karate persona. If you ask me, Takuma, too, is in "broken" territory.

[@maskedbrobotdubs4741]

To the guy who said this would fit as Saishyu's own theme,I concur.Course a final battle with Kyo fighting Saishyu just doesnt sound right.Maybe Kyo fighting an excessively, unnecessarily broken version of Rugal maybe. Or maybe this could play during a vengeful rematch with Saishyu "paying back" Rugal for the brainwashing he received in 95'.Either way, its a great peice of music.
