There's two timelines, the timeline which is just AOF, Fatal Fury, Garou and maybe some other games where Geese actually dies in Real Bout and the AOF characters age with Geese (see Ryo in Fatal Fury Special). Then there's the KOF timeline where AOF and FF happen in broad strokes around the same time or some shit but it's a confusing mess.

either is confusing to the point that starting from Garou actually helps make better sense of the FF timeline

Iori is definitely one of the most popular, and one of the "coolest", however for me personally I find both Kazuya and Scorpion to be better characters who I feel have a bit more of a reason to be edgelords, where Iori seems that way simply because that's his job, to be the edgy guy, and oh yeah some ancient feud with the ancestors of the main hero that nobody really cares about blah blah, that's a reason right? Good, he edgy boy.

>> No.7364819

It's not. But it's kinda Italian sounding, which is more thought that I would expect them to put into a name for a gaijin character.
Most likely they just gave it to him because his look was inspired by Andy Garcia (in addition to Steven Seagal).

He has that regular Joe feel that Ken and Guile lack, and has a laid back demeanor in the art that paints a more flattering depiction of an American than we're used to, I think Cody, Dante, and Leon in RE4 are well liked for much the same reason. Usually it's brash idiots, Slab Hardbeef, or stock Japanese guy with blond hair, so a guy who is just cocky and informal is very appealing.
