K' | 99 | 00 | 01 |
K' is the result of an unnatural creation. Planned to become the ultimate Kyo Kusanagi clone by the NESTS Cartel, they succeeded, but only in part. While K' inherited the inmense Kusanagi flames, his weak body is unable to sustain so much power. Thus a special glove is required for him to wield flames. K' is bitter with life and wishes to live as he pleases. Impervious to feelings, K' is very cold and ruthless. (read bio)

Maxima | 99 | 00 | 01 |
Maxima was recruited by the NESTS Cartel who equipped him with a special battle armor that enhanced his physical attributes and gave him built-in weaponry. He was paired with the quiet and short-tempered K'. Though they don't talk too much, the two share a grudge against life that allows them to be closer than they think. Together they have turned on the organization and become fugitives of the law. (read bio)

For a long time, Benimaru Nikaido presumed to be not only the most handsome fighter in Japan, but also the most skilled fighter! After his victory in the national martial arts tournament, Kyo Kusanagi stole the limelight and Benimaru was enfuriated. Though Benimaru respects Kyo, he dislikes being second banana. He always trains hard to become better than Kyo and eclipse the Kusanagi sun. (read bio)

Shingo Yabuki | 97 | 98 | 99 | 00 | 01 |
Shingo is a mild-mannered student who studies a lot and goes to high school every day, not only to study, but also to see his "master", the great Kyo Kusanagi! Shingo is a bright, funny, and good natured young man. He is always so jolly and never seems to get angry. Everybody sees him as a weird kid, but a good kid nonetheless. Shingo admires Kyo like a idol and dedicates his victories to him. (read bio)

Soldier Exactly three minutes. Comander! Unidentified craft report! They're all over the world... and they're on the move!
Heidern What're you saying?
Soldier Their intention's uknown. He's the satellite image. Enlarging...
Heidern It's... Kyo Kusanagi!
Soldier We managed to get this taken at the landing field. It's the same phenomenon confirmed in every country!

Krizalid I used KOF, you fools! A ploy, to lure you here!
Soldier All squads in position!
Heidern Good. Subdue Kusanagi. Employ Axe Squad at the site. I will follow shortly.
Soldier Commander! Listen. We recorded this at the site. The satellite caught this...
Heidern On speakers!
Benimaru How did you download the data?
Krizalid During the last battle, it was sent through my body.
Shingo What'll you do with it?
Krizalid To activate our clones, in one unified attack! Just look at this!
Benimaru Why, it's...
Shingo Kyo Kusanagi!
Krizalid Actually, he's a clone taken after the Orochi battle. The real one eluded us. And K', there, is my clone. A product of our technology.
K' Saaay what?
Krizalid You think differently? Remember your parents' faces? Your childhood...? Can't do it, can you?
K' Uh, n, no...
Benimaru Just what're you scheming?
Krizalid Clones'll seize major cities and our Cartel will rule!
