Shingo vs Kyo

Let me just start by saying that Shingo has far surpassed his mentor, that egotistical little f***er Kyo, WITHOUT real training from that mushroom haircutted freak.
He's more fun to use, is better looking, isn't as annoying, has those crazy critical hits, and makes you just want to yell out "SHINGO KIIIIIIIICK!" wherever you are.

Not to say that he can't be annoying, for example that damn win pose he has with his finger on his nose REALLY REALLY SUX!
But I don't see the complaint about the voice thing. And the only other thing I can think of about him that's annoying is his damn following of that wanker Kyo.
And does he have the best looking voice actor or what!!
Uggghhhh, even Kyo's voice actor looks like an egotistical little f***er, and don't get me started on Ryuji's.... but Shingo's one!!! (OK, he MAY look like he's a bit of a druggo, but still)

AHEM! Getting back on track, this is my Shingo vs Kyo page.
--------------------------------------------------------------

Why Shingo is better....

SHINGO VS KYO
*Shingo has his "SHINGO KIIIIIICK"   *While Kyo has the rather dubious and boring RED kick.
*Shingo's headband ties at the back   *While Kyo's somehow disappears into his bowl cut hair
*98, Shingo at the end of his three kicks can land on his face for an overhead (hee hee)   *Kyo, again choosing to be boring, lands on his face after you kick the crap out of him for his RED kick.
*Has a sense of humour!   *Is an egotistical... am I repeating myself?
*"This, this... moetero! hah hah hah"   *Stands there like an idiot and acts patronisingly.
*No fire   *Is cheap with his stupid flame tricks.
*99 runup and attacks overhead!   *More stupid flame tricks
*Teams up with Benimaru in 99 and doesn't take all the credit.   *Takes credit for Beni & Goro's work.
*Supers you want to do again and again even if they miss   *Cheapo crap 99 supers which take forever to end, and freaking poses the whole time too!
*SHINGO KIIIIIIIIICK!!!!   *Oniyaki (sounds like a grunt to me)
*The afore mentioned Shingo Kick sounds so nice you don't care that it's too long, it's not long enough!   *Sounds like "Body ga Amaze" just make you want to turn away in disgust at the sound departments sloppy work.
*Again, Shingo Kick. You find yourself yelling it out in the arcades, and people smiling indulgently at that kid who played a bit too much KOF.   *You yell out one of Kyo's (not that you really can YELL them) and you'll wake up the next day beat up in an alley with a wedgie with no memory of what happend after the Kyo quote... and if you don't, give me you address and I'll be happy to assist
*You can yell out Shingo Kick or eetooo!!with a passion.   *What can you really say? The funnest thing he's got is heh heh, and you can't really yell that.
*HE'S FUN! Unpredictable and cool!   *Hoo boy, you countered me again with the uppercut, I didn't see that one coming.
*Sorry, I can't help it, I LOVE SHINGO KICK   *Can you really obsess over any of his moves?
*His hair is all spiny and funny!   *Oh, Kyo, you have a bowl haircut.... fun.
*If necessary, you can really drop your fun act and kick ass (but who needs to? the fun kicks ass anyway. And it's worth losing a credit for.)   *Is it possible to have fun using Kyo? The only ass kicking I can stand to do with Kyo is with massive injury to Kyo.
*If someone challenges you with him, the first thoughts that come to mind aren't that you've been ripped off or "cheap"   *Guess what my first thoughts are? Kyo players for some reason remind me of computer Chizuru.
*/deep breath/"Stay cool Shingo"   */cheap flame trick/
*He don't got a team 97/98 and he's not a total boss type cheapo.   *aheh? 99?
*He's not totally obsessed with himself to the exclusion of all else   *Look at my "Kyo is a Wanker" page and you'll see what I mean.
*His voice is kinda a weirdo funny sound which has that high "eetoo" and the deeper voice moves..and yet, it doesn't sound as ridiculous as when you listen to Kim's high "addadada adda...etc" super and compare it to his deep end of round voice.   *Kyo even SOUNDS egotistical.. and his voice is really airy fairyish.
* He doesn't have ridiculous amounts of autoguard on every move  

*Look, do I even have to comment on his autoguards?
If you haven't noticed/become really pissed of by the amount of autoguarding Kyo has, then you don't play KOF or you've never fought/used Kyo.

<-- This is what Kyo's training has taught Shingo.

Yeah, I can hear the threats coming in already, all those Shingo fans wanting me to write more of the hundreds of reasons Shingo is better.

Well, sorry, but the demands of the rest of my page and school + tests kinda retract from my time.....

But don't worry, I'll put a whole heap more up when I get the time.
