I dunno what people see in Alba. He's emo, and a retarded design.
but he has white and red hair
And according to Falcoon, Alba is the cooler version of him XD
I thought that was supposed to be Nagase.
Xiao Lon is an alright design, although her alts are hideous and some of her moves are dumb. Chae Lim is good, especially her alt, but the Meira Brothers, Nagase, Duke, Lien, Luise, and Jivatma are all horrible. The Meira Bros. are just extremely lame and a terrible contrast to heroes like the Bogard Bros or Ryo and Robert. Nagase is the WORST design I have ever seen in a SNK game and makes absolutely no sense to me and why she uses Hanzo Hattori's moves is beyond me. Just another horrible Falcoon MarySue design, some say she is a Rule 63 Falcoon. I mean... god damn, she looks like a freaking YUGIOH character. Thats how bad she is.
Duke is an average boss design, but the problem is his moves are a mess, and aren't memorable at all compared to classic SNK bosses like Geese and Rugal, not to mention his theme is crap. Lien is just boobs+blonde hair in a too cleavage friendly spy suit, with some of the worst moves I've seen in a KOF game.
Luise is retarded dumb crap, doesn't belong in KOF, and Jivatma... not even gonna go there. Especially his alts. Hell, alot of the alts for these characters are horrible.
It would have been really great if Jivatma had a female VA for his alternate. It would have added such a really interesting mystery to his character. I never had the chance to play as Xiao Lon, but I really liked the look she had in her alt.
If I had to choose any SNK character that hadn't appeared in a KOF to show up, I'd go with Rosa from Kizuna Encounter, or Sinclair from AOF 3. If you put them together with Lenny Creston, then you could have a Women's with Weapons team.
