Fascinated by ninjas
since his childhood, his hard work and training have paid off, allowing him to
acquire amazing ninjutsu/ninpo skills. Founder of the “Brazilian Ninja
Arts” Dojo, Bandeiras unfortunately has no students at the moment. He hopes
his participation in the KOF tournament will remedy this situation and bring a
lot of students to his dojo.

(Antonio) Bandeiras
Hattori is a pretty cool design. First of all, there aren't many Brazilian ninjas around... so it's nice to see something new. His cool / nerdy personality
is also something unique to KOF. And while semi-annoying at times, at least he backs it up with solid and interesting fighting techniques. What struck me first about some of his special moves was the epic homage
to Samurai Shodown characters. He's got Ukyo's rapid fire slashes, along with Hanzo's "disappear into a log" move & spinning suplex! Cool SNK fan service, that. Bandeiras also has some pretty unique normal moves.
Visually, Bandeiras is easily one of the best / coolest new designs to debut in KOF XIV. I could
see him easily returning in a future KOF installment and I hope he does... (and I definitely wouldn't say that about
every KOF14 newcomer). On that note... "something" about his
design feels like it needs to develop a bit further.
