Neo-Arcadia got a good shot of it, here's the link. Pretty bad ass.

Kyo's new outfit

jeff bogard · Nov 19, 2003

This one is ok, I still like best the one he had with the white jacket and a black shirt with a cross underneath. Along with the little chain he had in his pocket, very realistic.

DangerousK · Nov 19, 2003

Looks good.

Nice to see they've started to change up sprites a little bit. Didn't think that was ever going to happen.

aria · Nov 19, 2003

I'm pretty jazzed too. I was cosplaying as kyo the other day without even knowing it. Sweet! I love the new duds, he looks so...so...average.

FormlessOne · Nov 19, 2003

They should've done the whole cross tie deal. I'm a bit dissapointed with his meagerness :emb:

daybona · Nov 19, 2003

....Terry?????

RyoGeo · Nov 19, 2003

I just think it's cool that it's something different.

Alex0916 · Nov 19, 2003

It looks real good. Hope the shoes he's wearing is hush puppies :mr_t:

Would you rather have them go back to his overused schoolboy outfit?

I've seen his new outfit somewhere before in one of my artbooks.... I still like it regardless.

TB@SNK-Capcom · Nov 19, 2003

It's okay. I think we all want to see a new outfit on Iori more.

IoriYagami n8 · Nov 20, 2003

It's easy to give generic styled characters new outfits. Kyo doesn't exactly look terribly unique wearing a jacket, undershit, and pants. Giving more unique looking characters new outfits requires a bit more redrawing rather then just a few changes to an already established look. Nice I suppose, but there are for more deserving characters that could use a new look. I too like Kyo's 99-02 look much better.

alec · Nov 20, 2003

cool, i think it looks good. new sprites are good.

Tatsumaki Senpuu Kyaku · Nov 20, 2003

The question is....is it a totally new sprite?? Maybe they just changed the palettes and everything to make it look different. (like on of them mugen edits they do on the characters) Anyways im glad Playmore SNK is bringing changes to the sprites at least, and fresh new characters for the series.

TheBigBB · Nov 20, 2003

I actually wouldn't have noticed at first glance...

Fygee · Nov 20, 2003

New sprites are good, but I still like his '99-'02 outfit a lot more.

Mushiki · Nov 20, 2003

I really don't know yet... the 99 outfit was too good... will have to see and decide which one is better.

SonGohan · Nov 20, 2003

Heh, Kyo '99 = backstreet boys Kyo

Shito · Nov 20, 2003

What I really like is the outfit is brand new, but they brought back with it the original Kusanagi symbol on the vack of the jacket (the solar eclypse thing) and the classical Kyo green gloves as well.

Classical bits in new style = best of the best

The reason why they finally changed him out of it is that Japanese High School students graduate after 3 years.

When did he get his new duds? Back in '99? He should have been out of them in '97. I guess he failed a couple of grades...

Iori must be a drop out.

kernow · Nov 20, 2003

judging by that one dodgy screen,

I'd say,

you should get some better sex I think.

the_colonel · Nov 20, 2003

he's got a belt too, he looks slightly like terry bogard, he even looks alittle bigger in stature.

-His dm is his 95 ground fireball

-he may have a new end chain from his qcf+A move.

-RED kick (B) is weak as it can be ducked again.

Kyo was 19 in KOF'94 and 20 from KOF'95 onward; plus he was featured on the Daburi / Double action card (A003) in the Card Fighters series (for those who don't speak Japanese, "daburi" means "repeating a school year after failing") -- so I've always assumed that Kyo's slacker ass flunked at least once or twice. i figured he probably couldn't get readmitted to his old school after his pre-KOF'99 disappearance, so he never went back to his old uniform (the school administration was probably not entirely sad to see him go

) -- I've always found it easier to imagine Kyo dropping out than to imagine him graduating, anyway. perhaps Kyo saw how well the "oldest fighting Japanese high schooler" thing worked out for Mizoguchi Makoto (Fighter's History series) and decided to quit while he was ahead.
