It took quite an effort to arrive at the initial design for this character, but when we entered the actual work for KOF 2003, the creation of this character was a piece of cake. KOF 2003 saw the absence of Choi Bounge, so why not make a nimble and cute girl character?! And with that sentiment, Malin was born. Whatever command you enter, be aware that Hotaru Futaba is nowhere to be found in KOF 2003, and Gato is here to stay! When Gato appeared, many groundless rumors circulated that 'Hotaru had made a comeback' and other such rumors to the same. Halfway through the development process, he became the character that was busy getting burned, frozen, and slapped around with a giant metal ball by other characters to experiment with the overhauled program.

Keeping the demands of the Chinese market in mind, designers included a user of orthodox Chinese boxing in the game to follow our marketing plans and enter the battle with Tizoc from "Garou - Mark of the Wolves". But we felt Tizoc for the English version had a nice ring to it. It may not be very well known, but the Japanese name for Tizoc is 'Griffon Mask'. It's unclear whether there were plans or not to introduce Grant from " Garou - Mark of the Wolves" along with Tizoc for a friendly tag team battle. Along with the change to KOF 2003's game system, designers were able to create movements heretofore impossible with KOF until now, allowing us to add the style of Tizoc for that very reason. To tell the truth, Raiden was to appear in KOF 2003, but before the characters were finally decided on, Tizoc took his place. According to the supervising designer, 'What knotted my stomach most was the shortness of time we had for development'. His character closely resembles certain aspects of Ralf and Yashiro in many ways, so designers toiled to create distinctive moves for this character. Because Ash has his particular appearance (LAUGH), Shen, no matter how you look at it, appears more like the main character. The development codename for him was 'The Third Man', and along those lines he became Woo Shen, his name 'flip-flopping' to the current name, and the latter moniker seemed to stick. The first concept for this character was a wild and sexy guy. A subtly embroidered dragon is depicted on the back of Duo Lon's costume, but according to the illustration's supervising designer Falcoon, this character sports a detailed character that follows the steady work of traditional craftsmen with the scales drawn one at a time. The model for this character is a certain Romanian vampire and hunter with the same first letter for his name. When speaking of the Flying Brigands, you have quite a collection of especially unique-looking characters, but Duo Long is, unlike those of his ilk so far, an orthodox, handsome character.

And the bit about Shanghai Crabs was the original material for the character 'Rojin'. Incidentally, the team story quotes casually from Robert Browning's 'Spring Song', but no one on the staff took interest in this (Boo hoo). Because the supervising designer created a rough design that fit the desired appearance to a 'T', little was changed for this character's design. Unlike the usual KOF hero characters, Ash was designed with the intent to create an 'attractive evil character'. Two new systems have been adopted : 'Tactical Leader System' which sets up a leader favorably treated in capability in a team and 'Multi-Shift' in which player characters can be changed freely during 3 on 3 battle.
