#I ALSO SEE SPOILERS BUT OUT OF CONTEXT THEYRE FUNNY TO ME IM SORRY

[lollipopmixclo9]

was fighting my artblock but got inspired by how much ppl made quotes about the Look Back movie 🥹

I couldn't pick one character, so I bundled them up! Honestly, the guilty favorite is just an excuse for me to draw Jane and Ben 🙈

💛 (also finally discovered what KOF stands for)

HI LEO and omg im so sorry for like. not ever using the full name sdjffs. BUT i assign u...

K'! (pronounced like Kay dash!)

^me when im like 16-18 and edgy as fuck.

OK SO. lemme like. first explain the age range bc well. no one is sure of his age but the official kof 2001 site says 16-18. he um. this guy has been thru a TON. im like gonna try n keep it kinda vague w his past and stuff bc his story line. wahh. very sad v emotional etc and i dont wanna overspoil. BUT. i will begin w nice little trivia things that are not upsetting <3 his fave food is beef jerky and he dislikes sweets! he rly doesnt like fighting in the kof tournaments (for good reason </3) hes got epic fire powers and hates sports!

THE ESSENTIAL K' (quick rundown on personality!)- hes a man of VERY few words and is very like solemn. he is the embodiment of 😐 and when u see him smile its like rare. he like rly struggles w social situations and a lot of his friends seem to have latched onto him instead of the other way around. hes like just. not super polite but he does care about his friends he just like?? isnt great at showing it. he is VERY jotaro kujo part 3 adjacent. fave fun fact about him is the end of i believe?? kof 99??? or maybe kof 2000. unsure. but maxima calls him dash-man. i think its fun <3 maxima is like his bestie because of circumstances (k' is like. very lore full and i dont wanna get TOO heavily into it for spoilers n stuff <3) and i just! i think its very swagtacular how theyre friends and found family. he like does have a kinda big found family w Whip and Kula Diamond (his sister figures) as well as Maxima! SPEAKING OF. quick blorbo image break before i kinda go a TINY bit into his past.

^ rare K' smiling moment! kula isnt there but from L to R- K', Whip, and Maxima!

^the three of them fighting and killing a bit on vacation/run from the law! kula is the blue hair and pronouns girl on the left!

OK. now i like. wanna um. sure share info w u. so K' is the protagonist of the NESTS saga (which takes place over king of fighters 99-2001 in terms of game plot!) hes (kinda, youll see later) made to be a clone of Kyo (who was the previous protagonist) and like this causes a lot of problems bc he HATES being compared to him or fighting w him or even being involved in this tournament in general. but like his past is summed up kinda quickly as he was a normal kid and him and his sister Whip got kidnapped by this like. SUPER bad crime organization named NESTS and he got injected w Kyo's DNA and kinda had the killua hxh treatment of raised to be a weapon since he was a child. i say hes KIND OF a clone bc thats what he believes due to brainwashing. hes basically (along w Maxima) forced to join the KOF tournaments bc NESTS has control of him in a way. hes um. been thru a lot. hes my little bestie but like oh my god. he suffers constantly, but like, thru out the games he kinda like gets closer w both Maxima and Whip, and goes from finding Kula to be an annoying kid to someone he does genuinely care about and consider his best friend.

IMAGE TIME (to distract from well. the incredibly tragic backstory):

^ HUGE FAN of his kof 2000 win pose

^ from the kof 2001 ending! K' is just like chilling (i dont entirely know context behind this as im waiting to see the ending until i get onto the game) and Diana (woman w her hand on Kula's hand) and Kula are just like having epic mom daughter moments. and like how Whip is there. ultimate blorbo pic

^BESTIE MOMENT. from kof xi! i love the genre of pics where it is the 3 of them just chilling!! also K' 's outfit here is so funny to me. love him.

^ LOVE THIS PIC. maxima doing the little one handed dad driving and whip having the time of her life in the front seat and k' just lounging in the back.

^ LOVE!!1 THIS ART he looks so swagtacular and strong

^ i will show this image as many times as i can bc it is SO funny. so L to R, Kyo (guy who K' has his DNA, he is just a chill guy), Ash (who EVERYONE in this pic wants dead but hes just a little birthday boy), Iori (who wants Kyo and K' AND Ash dead SO badly), and K' jamming to the tunes. like. idk why this art exists but top 5 KOF art pieces for sure.

^and last but not least! my fave falcoon sketch! i love how cool he looks here!

in conclusion, stan K'
