The drawing Hoeh-Hoeh selects for Wang Koh San in the ending is random, there are 7 different ones.

Kasumi Todo - March, 29 Wang Koh-San - April, 17 Lenny Criston - May, 20 Karman Cole - June, 13 Rody Births - July, 24 Ryo Sakazaki - August, 2 Jin-Fuha - September, 4 Wyler - October, 22 Sinclair - November, 14 Robert Garcia - December, 25 * Ultimate K.O. : Defeat an opponent in the first round by using your character's Super Desperation Move when the enemy's lifebar is 5% of less. If done correctly, you'll win the whole match in just a single round! * Finish the game without losing a round to get a comical hand drawn picture of the character after the credits. - SERIES - - STAFF -
