Fairy (Arranged)
The King of Fighters '96
Happy 28th anniversary to KOF '96! SNK loves to release these games in late June.
This is the theme of Chizuru Kagura, 3rd bastion of the three sacred Treasures, who debuted in this game. This arranged version of Fairy is heavy on the guitar and organ, which is absolutely badass.

On the 27th of September, twenty seven years ago, The King of Fighters '96 was released for the Neo Geo AES.
The game made a few changes to gameplay such as new techniques, various changes of some teams, with a few of them introducing new characters. The plot follows a new King of Fighters tournament created by Chizuru Kagura, the heir of Yata Clan who wants to find and recruit Kyo Kusanagi, who defeated the previous host, Rugal Bernstein, to ask him and his bitter rival, Iori Yagami, to help her in the sealing of the Orochi demon. The new boss is one of the servants of Orochi, Goenitz, who appears after Chizuru is defeated.
SNK members had trouble with the development of the game as they dragged on right up to its scheduled release. This happened because the developers had difficulty making the sprites and special moves of the new characters of the game. The game has had mixed reviews from several video games publications. While some reviewers have praised the graphical improvements and the addition of new characters, some have commented it was unbalanced in comparison to its prequels.
