Benimaru Nikaido Husbando

Benimaru Nikaido is a character from The King of Fighters series. He debuts in The King of Fighters '94 as a member of the Hero Team, and as one of Kyo Kusanagi's longest rival and friend. His official nickname is "The Shooting Star" (シューティング・スター). He appears in all entries of the KOF series, often in the protagonist team, making him canonically the biggest winner of KOF tournaments. His appearance is loosely based on Jean Pierre Polnareff from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. The idea for his electric powers stems from the anime Getter Robo. Benimaru, while sometimes outspoken and flamboyant, means business in battle as he's very proud of his skills and doesn't want anyone to look down on him for his good looks. Outside of KOF tournaments, he works as a model. He respects ladies though he tends to be more than a flighty flirt. Although he seems to have an indecisive mind, Benimaru has a heart of gold. His loyalty and respect can go a long way. Despite his American heritage (his mother is American), he carries many Japanese mannerisms. Though he would never openly admit it aloud, his pride as a professional fighter was shaken when Kyo beat him before 1994 and he secretly trains for a rematch.
