they're calling him the coolest design of all time
>>719478567Just another generic, soulless, clone, like everything from the east.But the golems will still buy what they're told to.

>>719478567If you took away the wrist wraps, the moon boots, and the pants leg thing, his design wouldn’t be that bad. The “athletic jacket over school/work clothes” part of the aesthetic can be done well, like someone wants to compete in KOF but has to do it between classes or shifts. But they went too retarded with making him stand out.
>>719478567He dresses and plays like he got lost on his was to Guilty Gear
>>719478567I hate most of the design, but the colors are by far the worst thing about it. I remember he has some alt colors in XV that instantly make him look 50% less shitty.
>>719480612saddly that was when snk going full china overlord pandering at the timethey went with what a lot of chinese youth considered cool, and since the chinese themselves have some sort of barroque kind of adhd that can't let them focus if there are blank spaces which they need to fill with details over details, this monstruosity was created, his design wouldve worked if they >chilled with the ammounf of accessories>reduced the color palette to max of 3 main colors
>>719481110For example, Isla's design i just as busy as Shun'Ei, but the main difference is that she has 3 main colors beside her skin, Yellow, white and black
>>719481390and purple and blueshe's not as bad as chuun'i but not much better
>>719481658Yeah, definitely not much better but at least is a better use of color than Shun'ei
>>719481390The socks turn it from a decent design to straight up dogshit
>>719480612 Exactly. It's like they had a solid foundation and then panicked halfway through and thought, "Wait, this isn’t loud enough!" Everything on the core silhouette screams "decent modern fighter," but then they just kept stapling crap on-bangles, zippers, asymmetrical socks, glow effects like it’s 2009 AMV hell. It ends up looking like someone mashed together a hypebeast Instagram feed and a Kingdom Hearts OC.
>>719480349The first time
>>719478567I actually kind of like Shu Ei, more than Ash evenbut at the end of the day you're never going to top K'
What's those shit on his wrists?
>>719478567I prefer the chilean girl.
Shun Ei was one of the only characters you could play before the game was finished fully downloading so I learned to like him, even if he is a Pokemon trainer lookin' aa nigga
>>719478567Shun'Ei was okay, he got better in KOF XV. Shame SNK thought COTW was the big opportunity to be Capcom or Bandai, which meant letting KOF XV die with no support.Fortunately for everyone COTW was their biggest flop yet.
Looking through my old clips, I remember I really enjoyed this game. Combos are a little long but it still strikes a good balance of complexity relative to how easy they are to do.
