According his conversation with Athena Asamiya in KOF XIII, Kyo doesn't wear his school uniform anymore because no one will wear it in his age.As mentioned by Kim Kaphwan, Kyo has not finished high school yet because of the KOF Tournaments.When they join forces, it is often begrudgingly and as a last resort solution to the conflict at hand.Īlong with Benimaru Nikiado and Goro Daimon, his theme is "Esaka Continues." from The King of Fighters XIII. His rivalry with Iori is one of mutual hatred and was hardly spurred by their clans' history. His strong sense of justice and his zeal to fight stronger opponents are what he believes to drive him to carry out his destiny. Kyo takes his clan's responsibilities on a more personal level, disregarding ancient legends and predestined events as any reason for his actions. Although he is confident in his poetic talent, most of his poems aren't considered to be good by his listeners. His extreme disinterest in studies has led to his chronic inability to graduate from high school (which has become subject to in-jokes). Despite his seemingly arrogant and rude demeanor, he treasures his friends and family, enjoying their presence and particularly doting on his girlfriend, Yuki. He is quick to dismiss subjects that don't interest him and will often carry out his actions with a devil-may-care attitude. Kyo is the over-confident but well meaning protagonist of the series, more interested in enjoying life than having to partake in any particular responsibilities. Ash was designed with the intent of creating an 'attractive evil character' with little changes done to him since conception.

His official nickname is The Sneering Blaze. KOF: Maximum Impact Regulation A (2007) Ash Crimson (, Asshu Kurimuzon) is the protagonist of the Ash Saga his first appearance is in The King of Fighters 2003 as the leader of the New Hero Team.
