True. They are not gone when despite they are ghosts they can just materialise themselves at will. It is likely they are just tired of the reviving Orochi thing and since Iori has a team this time they just decided to chill.

Very nice again, I hope you get more subscribers, I know all KOf stories but is interesthing to watch, you put much work just great job

During the NESTS saga he was also on the look to find Kyo when he was captured by NESTS. He wanted to rescue him by thinking that he should be the one who defeats Kyo and no one else! That's why he accepted the invitation to join the KOF in 2001 so that he destroys the fake Kyos and NESTS. His acts are based on anger, jealousy and selfishness. Good job on the videos! You can also use some of the destiny anime scenes and stills from mangas!

Iori used to have a women that loved him... i believe the story is from those audio media stories SNK used to made back then with the original voice actors from the games and they are "canonical".... I believe the girl dies and Iori sings about her. Maybe he kept her at distance because the curse of the Yagami clan, or maybe her imminent dead is something he just didn't want as her final memory. Any way I think those audios could help you do some more videos.

No one Normie ML players: *OMG CHOU!!*

Wow. Iori was always my favourite, but now I actually find him much more interesting as a character, knowing more about his history . I always thought he was just a villain because of his bad attitude, sadistic tendencies, killing intent and his hatred for Kyo, arguably the protagonist of the series. But he does have a surprising amount of depth to him and he's actually more of a hero than a villain, even if he doesn't realize or admit it, which I find both cool and amusing. Haha. XD I would like to actually see more of him, and I'd like to know more about why he hates Kyo so much. Like... what'd he do? I don't personally like Kyo too much either, to be honest, but... why the constant death threats? And why does he always seem to lose or tie with Kyo? In my opinion, Iori is either an equal or a superior fighter.

Awesome!
