I am quite fond of the background in Samurai Showdown 4 of the second stage which is, if I am not mistaken, of the burning town. Very good effects, but then again, that;s about par for the course on the neo.

I haven't played the game yet but the backgrounds on Last Blade 2 look amazing, I would say maybe the best on the system.

Burning house in LB2
Shoreline in Sam Sho 4
Graveyard in LB2
Burning town in Sam Sho 4
Top of train BG from MotW
Plantation with rain effect in KoF 99
Rimaruru's BG from Sam Sho 3 (snowy woods and house)
Forest in LB2
I remember LB1 had some good BGs as well, but I haven't played it in a while so I can't recall specifics. Same can be said for Ninja Master's.

I like the Sunset on the water in Garou Mark of the Wolves. I also like the Boat on the water in King of Fighters 98.

Haohmaru's background in SS3 is pretty nice (cherry blossoms). Khoshiro's background in SS3 is also pretty impressive.
