Word, the Jagi final combo was too strong! Thanks for posting this (and thanks Pharaon for hosting it on your site!) I'll try and put this up on YouTube today. http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=0F9176E6AF2AA9E5

Sure, here it is (lossless compression XviD, 288mb): http://www.penguin-mayhem.net/james/hnk/hnk_intro.avi

I found the complete sprite/sound rip of HnK on a Chinese mugen forum, so I collected it all into one big zip for your avatar making enjoyment. The sprites aren't aligned, but they're all there, so people wanting to make fancy animated gifs have the resources for it. http://penguin-mayhem.net/james/hnk/hnk_sprite-sound_rip.zip Note - some sprite are missing, including Mamiya's sprites for when she gets FKO'd by Rei.

Has anyone figured out how to do the silly aerial FKO cancel with Shin demonstrated in the Taiwanese EFCMV? All I can tell is it's low launcher -> AC -> 2369E~C -> 236CD, but I've never been able to figure out how they cancel the Senjuzan into FKO. All I can see is they cancel after the second hit of the Senjuzan, but they don't boost out of the Senjuzan. Amusingly though, after the JI'd Senjuzan, I would get a normal jD...and then Shin would automatically jump cancel and fly way high up. Shin ejection seat, launch!

Thanks! Yes, Shin can, but I can't always, haha. I'm trying to get that more reliable though. I need to work on boosting in after a blocked roundhouse earth crush too, for big damage BS combo. This was my first big play session vs his Heart though (he just started playing him, Juda is his main) so I can beat Heart much more consistently now. Juda is another story though

New Shin bug! (?) My friend and I were recording some match vids, and we ran into this bizarre bug! After Mr Heart did his super throw on my Shin, I had blue shadows trailing me the rest of the round! I don't know what caused it but it's pretty cool, permanent A-groove It happened several times, I'll try and post those later. Here is the first time we ran into it. This is on PS2 HNK. http://www.penguin-mayhem.net/james/hnk/matchvids/050307/blue_shadow_01.avi or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ch6EPuQwto4

A couple random (and maybe useless, heh) 0-star FKOs: c5c can link into FKO pretty easily. Edit: You can also do this with f5D if you follow up by doing 2D and kara-cancelling into the FKO (same as the CD setup.) 2D can link into FKO situationally per character. For example, vs Kenshiro, if he is not inside a corner, you can just go 2D->FKO and it will hit (before he can tech.) It catches him out of mid-air so it looks real goofy too (he freezes in his standing get-hit animation about a character height above ground, hah.) If Ken is inside the corner though, the FKO will whiff (he's too high.) Against Shin, you can hit him if he's inside the corner, or if you boost into 2D (the momentum will push you a bit forward after the super flash, giving you just enough reach.) On Souther, it doesn't seem to work at all ever. Bonus useless combo! You can combo into Tensho Honretsu after a banishing strike if you are distant from the corner (similar to Shin CD->6->AB combo.) You won't get the sexy counterhit damage, though.
