Go Hibiki

Go Hibiki is a badly coded character who is very overpowered and is just no fun to play as or against.

When you're playing as Go, you can kill the enemy with one attack. It's called 236236+HK. With 2 or three bars of power, once you connect with this super the enemy is automatically dead. No ifs ands or buts, unless the character has morethan 1000 life to begin with. Yes. It is very lame (replace lame with gay).

The poor coding is evident in many ways. As you can see from the two screenshots above, most of the CLSN boxes are poorly placed, which is the pure result of laziness. Jump up twice, then input 214+HK. After the move is completed, Go continues floating downward, leaving himself open to attack for what seems to be an eternity. More laziness. Bad coding can also be seen by the fact that he is way too powerful. Way too powerful. He's so powerful it's not even funny.

The graphics are decent (even though you can tell it's just an edited Dan), but nothing gameplay wise makes Go stand out in the overpopulated crowd of MUGEN shotokans. He is just like Ryu, except ten times as powerful.

You can download him if you want (if you can even find him, that is), but he's not really worth it.

[Note (Added 29 July 2002): Cadicle brought this to my attention. Apparently, the character was created by N64Mario. Hah, that explains the lack of quality. Anyway, the sprites are not edited, but are from SFA1 when Dan looked different. This is also an older version of Go, so some of the problems listed are fixed by now. Oh well. It still sucks.]
