Trivia

 * The concepts of the interviews are very similar to the interviews published on the magazine Neo Geo Freak 1998. In it, interviews with the characters of KOF '98 were published (in Japanese).


 * Re Verse, Otoma=Raga and Omega Rugal are the only characters who do not have character interviews.
 * In addition, the Awakened Orochi Team is the only team whose members do not have character interviews due to having no revelance into the canonical story of the game, being an alternative version of the Orochi Team's story.
