This is a really informative article. I had no idea that so many games were connected to the Fatal Fury series. It's amazing how much depth and complexity there is to this universe. I also didnt know that KOF is a different timeline. I hate how Terry was demoted in KOF because Kyo was the main character of KOF until Shun ei arrived.

Wait, what?! Yuri is older than Mai? That's crazy! I always thought Mai was the older member of KOF women's team. I guess I need to do some more research on the Art of Fighting series. I had no idea that it was set in the 70s! That's a pretty long timeline.

It's funny because I always thought Yuri was younger than Mai due to her more childish appearance and personality. I guess looks can be deceiving. And the fact that Art of Fighting is set in the 70s is mind-blowing. I never would have guessed. It's interesting to think about how much time has passed since the events of that series.

@Evans only in main Fatal Fury Timeline but in KOF Yuri is younger than Mai, they are 2 different universe.

I'm still reeling from the news that KOF and Fatal Fury are separate universes. It's like discovering that your favorite band has secretly been recording two albums under different names. I always assumed they were intertwined, given the shared characters and events. It's a mind-boggling revelation that completely alters my perception of the SNK universe.

I'm going to have to dive deeper into the lore and timelines to fully grasp this new information. Maybe there's a hidden connection, a parallel dimension, or even a multiverse at play. The possibilities are endless, and it adds a whole new layer of intrigue to the SNK franchise.

I can't wait to explore the differences between these two universes and see how they intersect and diverge. It's like uncovering a long-lost secret, a hidden treasure buried deep within the world of fighting games. This revelation has sparked a renewed interest in both KOF and Fatal Fury. I'm eager to revisit these classic series with a fresh perspective and appreciate the unique qualities of each universe.

Actually, there's an even more interesting twist to the timeline! King of Fighters: Maximum Impact is actually a separate universe entirely, even though it's connected to the Fatal Fury series. So, while the main KOF timeline and the Southtownverse have their own unique stories, Maximum Impact offers a completely different take on the characters and events. It's like having multiple parallel universes within the same fighting game franchise!

Man, the Fatal Fury series takes me back! I remember playing the original game on my Neo-Geo. The graphics were amazing for the time, and the characters were so cool. It's great to see that the series has continued to evolve over the years. I can't wait to see what the future holds for Terry Bogard and the rest of the crew.

With the announcement of a new Art of Fighting game, I can't help but wonder if they can debut a playable Jeff Bogard. I want to see his death on screen.

If we're comparing the Southtownverse to the Marvel Comics universe, I'd say it's most similar to the main continuity. It's the established universe where most of the stories take place and the characters are developed over time. The Fatal Fury series would be like the X-Men or Avengers, while the Art of Fighting and Last Blade series could be considered more niche titles.

Maximum Impact, on the other hand, feels a bit like the Marvel Ultimate Universe. It's a reimagining of the characters and stories, often with a more modern or edgy take. The over-the-top style and exaggerated characters in Maximum Impact remind me of the Ultimate versions of Marvel heroes.

Finally, the King of Fighters series is like the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It's a shared universe that brings together characters from different series and franchises. KOF's annual tournaments and team-based battles are similar to the Avengers assembling to fight a common threat. The crossover events and guest characters in KOF add to the interconnectedness of the universe.
