old news? someone done the Kabal hari kari before

I've never heard about it, please post the pic :)

I found this a while back and I think it came up on this board since then as well. I remembered Kabal's fatalities, but did the wrong one. I did his brutality instead of a fatality I believe it was and it caused his head to pop off. It can also cause a multicolored Kano to appear on screen and uppercut your opponent. Its pretty funny.

yeh I did it about 6 time and one time Kano appear too.

RasAGhul I can post the pic up but can some tell me how to put the picture on the message board because I will be scanning the pic.

damn that's cool lol! I didn't know about that it's new to me

I posted this a long time ago in a glitches thread, DreemerNJ found it a few years ago, I think we found one website with it documented, it's funny, there's a related glitch in an early MK3 version, doing Kabal's animality resets the game.

By the way, I'm almost positive that it is pronounces "Hara Kiri" not "Hari Kari"

It's spelled Hara Kiri.

hara-kiri


(här ́-kr ́, hr ́–) (KEY) [Jap.,=belly-cutting], the traditional Japanese form of honorable suicide, also known by its Chinese equivalent, seppuku. It was practiced by the Japanese feudal warrior class in order to avoid falling into enemy hands. Around 1500, it became a privileged alternative to execution, granted to daimyo and samurai guilty of disloyalty to the emperor. The condemned man received a jeweled dagger from the emperor. He selected as his second a faithful friend, received official witnesses, and plunged the dagger into the left side of his abdomen, drew it across to the right, and made a slight cut upward; his second then beheaded him with one stroke of a sword, and the dagger was returned to the emperor. Around 1700, it became permissible to go through a semblance of disembowelment prior to beheading. Voluntary hara-kiri was resorted to after a private misfortune, out of loyalty to a dead master, or to protest the conduct of a living superior. 1
Obligatory hara-kiri was abolished in 1868, but its voluntary form has persisted. It was performed by 40 military men in 1895 as a protest against the return of conquered territory, the Liaotung peninsula, to China; by General Nogi on the death of Emperor Meiji in 1912; and by numerous soldiers as an alternative to surrender in World War II. Hara-kiri was much discussed in recent years in connection with the death, in 1970, of Mishima, the well-known novelist and rightist political leader. 2
See bushido, kamikaze, suicide. 3
