The King of Fighters: Kyo (ザ·キング·オブ·ファイターズ: 京, Za Kingu obu Faitāzu Kyo) is Japanese manga written and illustrated by Masato Natsumoto and published by Kodansha in 1997. The manga follows the life of the martial artist Kyo Kusanagi since the climax of The King of Fighters '95 as well as his daily life as he attacked by his rival Iori Yagami who seeks his death. It is inspired by the fighting game series The King of Fighters developed by SNK.
The manga inspired a visual novel video game of the same name, set before The King of Fighters '97, developed by Yumekobo and SNK released on August 27, 1998 as a Japan-exclusive for the PlayStation, with fights arranged in a similar fashion to turn-based role-playing games.[1]
