Dunno why but I expected a Shermie, maybe it's just becuase you said you thought about making one in your WIP thread or your Avatar because you had a Blanka plush one when you were developing Blanka.

What's planned for the next char? If you even have any rn.

Not 100% sure. Maybe a grappler from SNK? Shermie? Would also be really cool to make a character with some kind of gimmick. Maybe Chang feat. Choi from CvS2? I want to use the next 2-3 characters as learning experience. Then again in two weeks I could be like: OK let's make Alice from KoFXIV using POKET's sprites. Or Iori. Dunno.

- Is there any reason for an EX Kuzukaze, becuase there isn't any noticeable difference compared to the normal one.

- Shouldn't there be a combo from Tsumagushi into Aoi Hana?

- The flame explosion at the end of the LVL1 Ya Otome when connected to Iori himself comes out a bit too late.

- The Flame pillar comes out too soon during the San Shingi no Ni.

- Why not add the grunts from SVC Chaos during the Chi no Bousou.

- Some non-CVS2 samples are a bit too quiet.

- Shouldn't the Ya Sakazuki travel until it hits the player, or is that just a buff for other versions of this guy? Speaking of, the AI using it could be better, maybe after blocking or far away where he'll release when the enemy comes close? I tested it against Jmm's Kyo and he kept doing it up close where he'd be vulnerable to sweep kicks and other such moves.

I appreciate the hard work on your chars, keep going with the good stuff!

Holly hell that Iori is awesome ! Good job !
I really like the attention to details, the DF kick hyper for EX Iori behaves exactly as in the kof games.
The rekas being slower as well, they look exactly like CVS2 from what I can tell and it easier to follow up. great stuff.

Is it me or the hyper orb should be on his other arm ?

Nitpicks aside, awesome release !

Tested for a while, can't tell anything wrong about the gameplay & aesthetics. The only thing I think is worth mention (and you can ignore if you want, it's just my opinion) is Orochi Iori have his defense too low. It is probably like that in CvS2 as the playable bosses have low defense, but consider having this only for when controlled by the player, similar to what I did with my Shin Akuma, it feels more like you're playing a boss char.

Now for comments, great release, wasn't expecting you'd come with Iori. The accuracy to source in your chars is insane. Thank you for sharing!

Kind of agree with O. Iori's defense being a little low (especially since his attack is weaker than normal Iori, as per source).  But, I just figure high risk high reward, since he is faster.  I'm sort of on the fence for this one.

Forgot to mention earlier, he still needs a better damage damper.   127 Shiki: Aoi Hana, for example, doesn't start getting hit with a dampener unless there's at least a 4-hit combo before it (6-hit combo if all 3 hits are to be dampened).  Right now, I can do the following:

J.HP -> LP -> C.HP -> EX 127 Shiki: Aoi Hana -> 108 Shiki: Yami Barai -> EX 212 Shiki: Kototsuki In = 569 damage.  That's pretty good for 1 bar of meter.
Even a simpler one J.HP -> C.HP -> EX 127 Shiki: Aoi Hana -> 108 Shiki: Yami Barai = 477 is done with just 1/2 a bar of meter.

A minor issue, but I find it odd you haven't changed the author's name on the def to your newer spelling for Blanka and Genjiro (One has the opposite spelling and the other one as well but with a space in it). You should keep it the same so it's consistent for special intros and such. I remember DeathScythe saying he wants to make an special intro against Blanka on his Ingrid and would suck if it turned out different, causing the intro to not play.

-No Intro clip for Iori in his intro vs Dictator? I'd say add an extra state for that intro so you get that feel.

-Why does EX 100 Shiki: Oniyaki do 98 damage? Shouldn't it be 84?

-I assume the hitbox for the beginning of 311 Shiki: Tsumagushi is a point for distance or something?

-If an opponent hits Iori while he's in Chi no Bousou really close, it cause them to spaz out, moving left and right until the slash part actually begins.

-All of the gethit parts are the Normal versions. If you want to look at my code at what I did for mine, you can do so. It gets most of the problems out (besides custom hits, so you may want to make a separate SFF just for Orochi mode if you want a separate slot for him. I know it takes up a good chunk of bytes, but I'd say it's worth it.

-Medium Punch into Ge Shiki: Goufu In "Shinigame" makes him go back into Normal mode, then back into Orochi mode.

-San Shingi no Ni should have some weight into it. Some EnvShakes should do the trick. Also, it should make the opponent fly farther than just right in front of him.

-Same issue as San Shingi no NI for Ura 316 Shiki: Saika. The last part should make them fly instead of just going down.

-Only the first part activates the final part of the Ura 1207 Shiki: Yamisogi according to KoF XIII.

-Why does Ura 1029 Shiki: Homurabotogi make him fly so high up? It just makes the move similar to M. Bison's Psycho Punisher from SFIV, It should be him going forward until he lands on the ground.

You did well, and made me realize I should update my own Iori sometime.
