Kyo Kusanagi:

Name: My name is Kyo Kusanagi.

Fighting Style: It's obvious right? The Kusanagi style of ancient martial arts. I also practice my own personal style of Kenpo.

Nationality: Japan.

Birthday: December 12th. Are you asking 'cause you want to get me a gift?

Age: 20.

Height: 181 cm.

Weight: 75kg.

Blood type: RH-B. Rare, eh?

Hobby: Writing poetry, maybe? I hardly show any of it to people, though.

Favorite food: Grilled fish--but sanma only, you know.

Forte in sports: Ice Hockey.

Important things: Important? My bike, of course. Then... I guess... my girl?

Dislikes: Effort, maybe? I was born talented--trying hard is for losers!

Voice Actor:

Masahiro Nonaka's first voice acting work for SNK was Kyo in KOF '94, who he would continue to voice for the next 16 years. He also voices the two Kyo clones in KOF '99, and Basara in some of the Samurai Shodown games. That seems to be almost it for his voice-acting career.

VA flub: Hu... Hya... HYAA... ARGH! Heh heh heh. (People in the background also start laughing)

VA comment: Hello, this is Masahiro Nonaka, voice actor for Kyo Kusanagi. King of Fighters is now three years old, which means this is my third year with the series too. Now, in my third year, I feel like I've finally reached a point with Kyo's voice acting where I'm fairly satisfied. To all the fans, I hope you will keep supporting this game (and me, while you're at it) and enjoying this game!
