I remember that a long time ago, Yagami-an was very popular! At that time, many players in the game arcade were talking about the settings related to Yagami-an.
Some people say that his leg straps are to seal irrepressible power, some say that his hair is dyed red with blood, some say that he raped Kusanagi Kyo's girlfriend, and then she bit her tongue and committed suicide... all kinds of Various explanations.

It was widely circulated in game halls at that time, and many players believed it to be true.
It was only a long time later that we learned that these stories were all from Hong Kong comic plots. But at that time, almost all players regarded Hong Kong comics as official comics.
To be honest, the plot in Hong Kong comics is really unwatchable!
Iori Yagami was originally portrayed as a very individual character, but in the Hong Kong manga, he became a murderous maniac with no trace of humanity. Moreover, many characters from the Yagami family appeared in the manga. In the orthodox plot, Iori Yagami protects his family very well.
Of course, there are also some plots that explain the plot of the game, such as: Iori Yagami conquered Mai Zhuo by his own means.
In the "King of Fighters" game, we often hear "Agami" mentioned in the conversations between Kusanagi Kyo and Iori Yagami, which is actually the English name of Iori Yagami.
Nowadays, with the spread of the Internet, we basically understand the plot of Yagami-an. But it still cannot satisfy everyone's curiosity, and I think the image of this character should be more fleshed out.
According to SNK's past habit of "making the best use of everything", it is unlikely to "let go" of such a popular character as Iori Yagami!
Yes, there are actually many stories about Yagami-an that you don’t know, and these secrets are released in different games and related products.
Today, the editor will review this classic character with you again and see another side of Iori Yagami that is unknown to everyone.
Although Iori Yagami is cold, he still needs to eat!
Under the auspices of Asamiya Athena, Yagami, Kusanagi Kyo, Nakorulu, and Terry formed a band: The Band of Fighters
This band not only exists in comics, but also has offline activities and has participated in official Neo Geo World events.
In addition, on the 10th anniversary of "KOF Year-End Party", we will see The Band of Fighters appear again
Before Orochi's Blood awakened, Qilaosha, Chris and Sharmi had actually formed a rift with Kusanagi Kyo and Iori.
CYS Hell Band and Fighter Band are completely incompatible.
This is indeed a plot created by SNK itself, and it has a certain connection with the plot of "The King of Fighters" that we are familiar with. The characters appearing in it retain the characters in the game, but the plot goes astray. It's a side story.
If the image in the "King of Fighters" game is theirs, then this game is their way of life.
The daily life of Kyo Kusanagi and Yagami, they work in the SNK store and promote their products.
The purpose of Iori Yagami working here is to pay for his new bass. With these guys in charge, no one would dare to cause trouble!
The protagonists in this work are not Kusanagi Kyo and Iori Yagami! But Enta Girl, now, the one below.
The products they promote are what are actually sold in SNK stores!
Girls' King of Fighters, like "Memory Day", is a relatively heart-warming fan game.
The main character in the game is a cheerful female who can date the male characters from The King of Fighters.
The main story of the plot is that the heroine was fired and became homeless. Then she set off to Tokyo to find work. She eventually became an assistant to a "King of Fighters" player and fell in love with him.
Iori Yagami has shown an unprecedented gentlemanly demeanor in this game and is extremely gentle towards women.
After "The King of Fighters 95", Iori Yagami directly disabled Kisaragi Kageji and Billy after clearing the level.
Geese admired such a powerful fighting power, so he invited Iori Yagami to participate in "The King of Fighters 96" with him.
But after being rejected, Iori Yagami just wanted to be alone. He believed that Geese was not qualified to order him. I don’t care about remuneration at all (I am indeed arrogant in the game, but I still have to eat in private! Why don’t you say this when you are a salesman)
Iori Yagami and Lianna were originally two characters who couldn't get along with each other.
But after the seal of the Orochi was loosened, the blood of the Orochi in the two people began to stir, and even resonated. It was precisely because of this bond that the two met together.
Iori Yagami believes that only he can enjoy this power, and it is obvious that Liana is at a disadvantage.
In the game, Orochi awakens at the last moment, but in the manga, they awaken early. They know their purpose and who they need to deal with.
Kusanagi, Kagura, and the Hachijou family became their targets, but they found that the descendants of Hachijou were incompatible with the Kusanagi family, and they took advantage of this to deal with the three artifacts.
Chris once approached Yagami and tested his abilities. But he soon regretted it, because he found that Iori Yagami's combat effectiveness was no less than that of the Orochi who had awakened their power, and he decisively withdrew after taking a few combos.
After Chris was defeated, Nanaishasha approached Iori before Kagura and told him that members of the Kusanagi family should participate in the competition.
Qijiaoshe handed over the stolen King of Fighters invitation to Yagami An and left.
Ordinarily, in this era, it is impossible for Iori Yagami and Kusanagi Kyo to cooperate.
It was only with the help of Kagura Chizuru that the first collaboration between the three artifacts came about.
Finally, some tidbits about Yagami-an:
In "Samurai Shodown RPG" we met the ancestors of Hachishajou and the ancestors of the Kusanagi family
The official novel released by "THE KING OF FANTASY", Iori Yagami's journey through time
Does Iori Yagami have a girlfriend? "Sunset and Moon" tells the story of Iori Yagami and his former girlfriend Tanama Kiuri.
In the online game "KOF Online" that has been shut down, Iori Yagami's look is really good.
Times have changed, and the arcades that were popular in the streets and alleys have now disappeared. Perhaps only those who experienced that era still vaguely remember the glory of the arcades in the past.
Now that we have passed our thirties, when we enter the arcade in a large shopping mall, all we see are claw machines, car games, motorcycle games, coin pushers, shooting machines...
Clean environment, trendy crowd, everything is so high-end. And standing here always seems a bit out of place.
This is not the taste in memory.
In an unknown corner, there may be one or two fighting games like "King of Fighters" or "Street Fighter", waiting alone for the fate of someone.
Maybe this era no longer belongs to us!
