Kyo-1 (
Development[]
In The King of Fighters '99, two clones of Kyo Kusanagi appeared as selectable characters: Kyo-1 and Kyo-2. The original Kyo was redesigned for the game, but some designers wanted his return to KOF '99 with his iconic school uniform. When they were nearing the end of their production schedule, staff members were indecisive upon which uniform the Kyo clone should wear (KOF '94 or KOF '95) when the project head said to just make two clones instead. To save time, the project head then drew designs for Kyo-1 and Kyo-2 on the spot.[1]
Story[]
During the course of The King of Fighters '99, Kyo-1 and Kyo-2 were merely two of thousands ready to be activated by Krizalid. They were presumably destroyed, since both characters don't have a personal ending and don't belong to any team. They return in The King of Fighters 2002 Unlimited Match as part of the Clone Team along with Kusanagi, only to presumably test their opponents and eliminate Kyo.
Personality[]
Kyo-1 is more serious than Kyo-2, and doesn't underestimate any of his opponents. He hates Kyo Kusanagi with a burning passion.
Powers[]
His powers are derived from Kyo Kusanagi, whose skills and pyrokinesis he has inherited. It is also important to note that he is not a descendant of the Kusanagi clan, and thus, has no control of the family heirloom, nor the authority/ability to seal Orochi if necessary.
- Pyrokinesis - Kyo-1 has control over fire except for those he didn't create.
- Create Fire - Kyo-1 can create fire from thin air.
- Fire Attacks - Kyo-1 can throw balls of fire.
- Fire Projectile - Kyo-1 can fire a projectile of fire through the ground.
Fighting Style[]
His fighting style is based on Kyo's fighting style during The King of Fighters '94 and The King of Fighters '95 , though heavily modified and arranged. Like Kyo-2, Kyo-1 does not possess any method numbering like the original Kyo does, and his Oniyaki (Ogre Baker) is notably replaced by a variation of the original Kyo's Batsu Yomi (Punishment Recital) known as the Aoki (Pale Ogre).
