Private Nakagawa: The handsome young man who possesses one eye and a peculiar character.
He lost his memory many years ago.
He continues to fight as a martial artist to pursue his past.
Basic Info:
Name: Kairi
Height: 178cm
Weight: 77kg
Blood Type: Unknown
Birthday: January, 14
Home Country: Japan
Favorite things: Nothing special
Dislikes: Nothing special
Private Nakagawa: The man who inherited the house of Suijin Kobujutsu.
He lost his memory when he was thrown from a cliff.
(Which actually contributes to his different appearance in EX2)
“You must challenge your limits”.
The power held in these words are what spur him to fight.
Even today, we have comments from our senior colleague!
NIN: To differentiate him from all the other projectile characters,
he is the one whose abilities rapidly changed throughout the series.
The names of his Special Moves, at any rate,
use excessive words or make full use of kanji,
I get a nostalgic feeling thinking of the days of hard work flipping through pages of dictionaries.

Private Nakagawa: Kairi’s appearance has now changed from the way he previously looked.
He carries an ominous ki as he defeats his enemies.
What on earth happened to him!?
Basic Info:
Name: Kairi
Height: 178cm
Weight: 77kg
Blood Type: Unknown
Home Country: Japan
Favorite things: Nothing special
Dislikes: Unpleasant Memories
Private Nakagawa: This man has walked the path of carnage,
in order to regain his lost past, and in order to survive.
He lost his memories
and was thrown into the sea during a storm,
by Shirase who had been burdened
by a form of hypnosis placed upon her during childhood,
until he finds himself exhausted after arriving at the cliff from which he fell.
Furthermore, Hokuto’s seal has been dispelled
due to their fight to the death which reawakens his own memories,
perplexing him as to why his sister wants him dead,
he attempts to find the end of his fate as a warrior.
Even today, we have comments from our senior colleague!
NIN: Well, I know my hair would probably turn white if I were thrown down.
I kind of had the intention of making a somewhat epic backstory.
I remember writing up until this point,
but a better example would be the EX CD drama…..
a continuation of this story is on the CD!

Private Nakagawa: A good young guy with gigantic sideburns.
Even today, he tosses his opponents around
with his Justice Fist, a violent straight punch!
Basic Info:
Name: Allen Snider
Height: 179 cm
Weight: 81 kg
Blood Type: 0
Birth Date: March, 21
Home Country: USA
Favorite things: Frogs
Dislikes: Electrical Appliances
Private Nakagawa: The former strongest karateka in the USA.
He suffered a defeat in the first match of the All-American Martial Arts Tournament, though.
His opponent was Ken Masters.
Ken said to him "After all, you're only a big fish in a small pond!¹",
and misinterpreting his words, Allen decided to become "The strongest fish in the World²".
He's a constantly curious and likable person.
Since his loss to Ken, he pays attention even to his moves's naming.
And even today, we have comments from our senior colleague!
NIN: "Oh, sideburns!
I remember I thought of making him
a very aggressive projectile character.
Subsequently, I thought it would be nice
having a foreign karateka."
Notes
¹ Literally, "A frog in a well", taken from Japanese proverb "A frog in a well does not know the great sea". That explains his dislike of frogs, translated as "being called a big fish" in English adaptations until now.
² "The strongest frog in the World", obviously.

Private Nakagawa: He's the bouncer who's confident in the abilities of his arms.
He’s an enthusiastic man who is also kind and empathetic.
I want to be like him when I grow up (unfortunately it's too late for that).
Basic Info:
Name: Jack
Height: 189cm
Weight: 98kg
Blood type: B
Birthday: June 14
Country of Origin: United States
Favorite things: Baseball, Soccer, Alcohol from different countries
Dislikes: Crowding together
Private Nakagawa: The bouncer from Las Vegas who is said to be the best of the best
in the association known as the “Crackers”.
In order to live a free life from fighting with rivals,
he disappeared from the organization.
He’s currently traveling the world as a freelance bouncer.
His prized possession is his wooden baseball bat.
Even today, we have the comment of our senior colleague!
NIN: I compare his character to a type of man’s man,
I love his behavior, plus his voice,
and I think he’s pretty cool.
However,
Mr. Nishitani,
is like an endless launching uppercut combo
which continues to show self-restraint…..
That’s me when I’m angry lol

Private Nakagawa: Woooah he’s pretty awesome!
Lord F.A.N.G! We should help establish this type of mysterious man here at Shadaloo!
What, he’s a hero?
Basic Info:
Name: Skullomania
Height: 163cm

Home Country: Japan
Favorite things: Protecting his family, World peace
Dislikes: Evil, Working Overtime
Private Nakagawa: The salaryman named Saburo Nishikoyama
just couldn’t find a way to get ahead in his life.
During the Hero Show held for the customers at his department store,
he was forcibly made to perform to attract more people’s attention.
In doing so, he felt an indescribable passion which awakened a sense within him.
The enthusiasm in his heart made him believe he was the one to protect the world,
thus he began to compete against the top rank martial artists on an even playing field.
After all, is that not what men of mystery are meant to do?
Even today, we have a comment from our senior colleague!
NIN: He was conceived out of this initial desire
“Skeletons, we want a design which uses bones”.
Though, his original rough draft design was named “Rubberman”,
maybe it was because his full bodysuit resembled rubber….?

and the billowing energies of darkness
are seemingly alive in the world.
Basic Info:
Name: Garuda
Height: Unknown
Weight: Unknown
Blood Type: Unknown
Birthday: Unknown
Country of Origin: Japan?
Favorite thing: Unknown
Dislikes: Unknown
Private Nakagawa: A demon who is burdened by the souls of martial artists
who have been absorbed by the Satsui no Hado.
Negative emotions, such as anger, are the dark energies it’s composed of.
He was once a hero who saved his village, before becoming a demon himself.
Even today, we have a comment from our senior colleague!
NIN: Anyhow, he has blades hidden all over his body.
Cool! That was the impression we had about his concept.
Initially focusing on the blades I believed one hit would be “crushing!”,
since it was something I felt was trivial which I hated,
but once we decided to test out his multi-hitting Super
I started to feel more comfortable with him.

Private Nakagawa: The younger sister of the heir of Mizukami style ancient martial arts, Hokuto.
She doesn't only use ancient martial arts, but even the stick.
An amazing stick that can lengthen itself.
Basic Info:
Name: Nanase
Height: 165 cm
Weight: 54 kg
Blood Type: 0
Birthday: February, 19
Country of Origin: Japan
Favorite thing: Anmitsu, Hokuto
Dislikes: Seiza¹
Private Nakagawa: Kairi's real sister.
Nanase doesn't remember her brother,
and is searching for her sister Hokuto
who mysteriously disappeared.
She has a merry and cheerful personality.
Even today, we have a comment from our senior colleague!
NIN: "The collision detection of that elastic stick
proved to be quite the technical problem.
I struggled with the attack detection of
her Kasumioroshi², too.
I liked the way in which she could pierce two opponents
at once with her stick in EX3."
NOTES:
¹ The classic Japanese kneeling position. I understand her, it's really uncomfortable...
² "Misty Gust from the Mountains"; her QCB + K, in which she jumps and stabs downward with her stick. Depending on the button you press, the stick pierces at a 45°degree forward (SK), straight downward (MK) or downward behind her at a 45° (LK). She bounces off after a successful hit, meaning you can combo the three stabs in succession.

NIN: During development, his “Tsumuji Kagerō-Kyoku”* was called “UFO!”.
Since then, it is no longer seen as only a UFO,
there had been a time where we couldn’t stop laughing as the system gradually came together.

Is it worth it, considering I don't really play fighting games, and the Saturn I have doesn't even have a video connection?
