Do you guys think we'll be getting a direct this week or next?

Also if so which day do you think it'll fall? I'm thinking either Wednesday or Thursday both this or next week whichever it is.

So...

Anyone still think Spirits don't deconfirm for this Fighters Pass?

Nakoruru, huh? Well, I care about her just as much as I do Hayabusa, which is to say hardly at all.

If she does get in though, I'll be a little irritated how this Fighter Pass has seemingly put an emphasis on the Japanese fans. Kinda makes Banjo feel like the "Hopefully this will be enough to shut you up" character.

Pretty much all the insider scuttlebutt is saying this week for the Direct, and most likely Thursday.

So what reason would there be for Nakoruru to be chosen over Terry Bogard if the leak is true? Because though I would prefer her over him. Terry is pretty much the face of not just KoF but SNK as a whole.

Only logical conclusion I can think is the unique and creative moveset she might have.

Why though? Preference? There are no leaks. Nothing that suggests who pass 5 will be. The only thing we have to go on is that each legacy third party company has at least two characters in the game besides Namco. Meaning that their lineup should be considered prime suspects for our grand finale.
The underlined part is what bothers me. It might as well be coincidental and I'm sure it is.
If we had to get another fighting game rep, it should be Fang the Sniper from Sonic the Fighters
That's not what defines a fighting game rep though

God this might be the first character since Shulk in which I never heard of this person or their series. I'm excited.

There was the recent announcement of SamSho recently. Friends of mine believe it might line up.

Imagine if after all this time, the leak from the random Twitter person was correct.

Even better, I don’t know that this actually disconfirms Ryu Hayabusa unless I’m misunderstanding.

Also, back to whoop on you guys in Arena!

Me: "Dude let's go, cute girl with birb!"
Sakurai: "T E R R Y"
Me: "But... cute girl with birb--"
Sakurai: "T E R R Y"

I almost expect it. And I don't think I'm ready for it.

Ah yes, the irrelevant character who only showed up in like 3 games. Y'know, as opposed to any iconic character from MK, Tekken, KI or KoF.

I mean, ****. I'm a Tekken fan. I would gladly take Jin Kazama over Nakaruru or even Terry, as much as I like him. But you could at least let people be happy.

I unironically want Terry out of familiarity, but I'm happy with birb girl.

SNK wasn't my first thought for a character in general but I can't really be upset with it. Betting on Terry, but I wouldn't be displeased with Nakoruru either.

If that twitter dude was telling the truth...

...didn’t he also say there would be a fighter that’s already represented?

Hmm...

Everybody going, "SNK!!!!" or "TERRY!!!" or "NAKORURU!!!!"

And here I am, who knows next to nothing about SNK besides some of the names of their characters and games and crossovers, just going:


But yeah, I know next to nothing about SNK that I can't feel any real excitement. That certainly doesn't mean I have a problem with the choice of an SNK character and I'm glad others are excited. Just that I don't know enough to feel any excitement.

Hey man, Terry's here for the ladies.
