Kaiser Wave

Kaiser Wave is Wolfgang Krauser's Super Special Move in both the Fatal Fury and The King of Fighters series. It is also the Special Move of Rugal Bernstein in The King of Fighters series.

Description
The user raises both of their hands in the air and charges up a large projectile. Starting with Real Bout Fatal Fury Special, Kaiser Wave could be charged up for more damage, and even changed color from blue to pink.

This move was originally created by Krauser, but in The King of Fighters series, the move was stolen by Rugal, which he uses a Special Move rather than a Super Special Move. In The King of Fighters 2002 (and its remake), it can even be charged up to four "Levels", each with its own strength and speed. While Level 1 & 2 have no difference, Level 3 & Level 4 are different projectiles called Divine Arrow (also used by Igniz) & Gravity Smash (used as his special move back in '98 & '98 UM), second of which is unblockable.

Trivia



 * In The King of Fighters '98 Ultimate Match, Krauser and Rugal both have a special intro where they both fire off a fully charged Kaiser Wave at each other, referencing that both of them use Kaiser Wave.
 * Oddly, Omega Rugal can also fire off a Kaiser Wave in such special intro as well despite the fact that he lacks Kaiser Wave in this incarnation.


 * In KOF 2002, Neowave and 2002 UM, Omega Rugal has some cybernetic tendrils protruding on his back when he charges his Kaiser Wave as well as in his MAX2 Kaiser Phoenix. Such cybernetic enhancement likely explains why he can charge not only up to 4 levels but also launch different projectiles during his Kaiser Wave sequence as compared to his '98 normal self, where his charged Kaiser Wave (full) simply travels faster with more damage & hits.
