Kung Fu Man is the very first M.U.G.E.N character ever made and comes pre-installed with all versions of the M.U.G.E.N engine when you download the game off Elecbyte's site. He was originally created by Elecbyte, the creator of M.U.G.E.N, but since then, there have been many edits for KFM giving him extra moves and abilities. Other edits include: Kung Fu Fiunn, Kung Fu Master, King Fancy Pants, Orochi Kung Fu Man, and Kung Fu Head.

Elecbyte's Kung Fu Man
Edit
Elecbyte's Kung Fu Man is a very simple and basic character which is useful for novice players to understand the basics of fighting games in M.U.G.E.N. There are two versions of this KFM, one styled like pixel which is classed as his default and the other which is more like a painted version. KFM comes with his own story which serves as an example of what the player can do with other characters.
StoryEdit
Intro
"Kung Fu Man and his girlfriend were going for a walk..."
"When they were attacked by the evil Suave Dude and his minions!!"
"While Kung Fu Man was busy fighting off the minions"
"Suave Dude captured his girlfriend!!"
"Determined to rescue his girlfriend, Kung Fu Man now sets off for Suave Dude's secret mountain temple hideout..."
Ending
"Having defeated his evil clone, Kung Fu Man is ready to beat Suave Dude and rescue his girlfriend."
"But wait!! We haven't made the Suave Dude character yet!!"
"Don't cry, Kung Fu Man. maybe you'll get a chance next time..."
StatsEdit
- Life: 1000
- Power: 3000
- Attack: 100
- Defence: 100
GameplayEdit
KFM uses a 4 button fighting system, two punches (X + Y) and two kicks (A + B). His moves consists of simple kicks, punches, a grab attack and few special attacks. These special attacks have three forms, these are...
- Weak Form
- Strong Form
- Fast Form (Requires 1/3 of a power bar)
He also has two hyper moves which are stronger versions of two special attacks.
Despite being quite a weak opponent, he is capable of chaining his attacks into each other dealing high damage if done well enough. As for his AI, it is fairly easy and very suitable for novice players, there is however an AI patch made by ironcommando which makes him more of a challenge than his default AI. This AI patch can be downloaded here.

V-ism Kung Fu ManEdit
V-ism KFM is exactly the same as Elecbyte's Kung Fu Man, the only difference is that he now has the ability to perform a Custom Combo Attack.
Custom Combo attacks originate from the Street Fighter Alpha Series, when the player gains enough power to activate the mode (usually 1 bar or more) they can then activate the mode at anytime when you press kick and punch of the same strength at the same time (eg. X+A). When activated, the player will have a limited time to approach a foe and launch any series of attacks they wish. These attacks will be done much faster than in regular gameplay and will be easier to perform in succession. Other abilities which can be done during the activation period includes doing any special attacks, can also be done much faster and without any charge time and still hit characters in "knock down" stage immediately after each other, provided they do not fall to the ground. Using these abilities, skilled players can use this ability to make lengthy combos that could not be escaped normally and deal lots of damage.
Kung Fu Man 09Edit
Kung Fu Man 09 is an edit of Kung Fu Man by Warner. He is now a 6-button character, with the 2 new buttons being cartoonish punchs and kicks. He is also compatible with Warner's creations, having electrified and burned effects when attacked with electric and burning attacks, respectively. He also has a new portrait and a new stance, and is compatible with Demitri's Midnight Bliss and Soul Ninja MK2's fatalities.

- Regenerating health
- Auto-charge power bars

Related CharactersEdit
There are several characters related to KFM in one way or another and not one of them have received a build by anyone even claiming to be Elecbyte. They are:
- Kung Fu Man's Girlfriend
- The Evil Suave Dude
- The Evil Suave Dude's Minions
- Kung Fu Man's Evil Clone
- Kung Fu Girl
- Tu Shou
- Muay Thai Man - KFM's distant relative from Thailand who uses Muay Thai moves
- Kan Cho Man - KFM's perverted brother from Japan who uses 'kancho' (butt pokes) to defeat his enemies.
- Devil Kung Fu Man - Believed to be a dark, sinister apparition from Hell which takes the form of Kung Fu Man. Has the ability to infinitely clone himself during battle, and attacks with clones for repeated hit combos (as the clones repeat the player's moves). His final technique is calling 50+ clones off-screen and mobs the enemy in a frenzied rush.
- God Kung Fu Man - created by jjong1917, which is Zee KFM with KOFXI hitsparks and extra moves.. Kung Fu Man has finally achieved Nirvana and becomes a divine being. Still, he returns to Earth to find Suave and send him to Hell himself. God Kung Fu Man can fly and float.
The first 4 are all mentioned in his story. The last one if you except this is a new comer to the group derived from the victory quotes of the M.U.G.E.N. 1.0 version in which there are a few parodies of other games in this case he says "You must defeat Tu Shou to stand a chance." in reference to the Street Fighter win quote "You must defeat Sheng Long to stand a chance.". As a note although Sheng Long never became a character he likely inspired two and contributed significantly to the series.
Theme of Kung Fu ManEdit
Special theme song for Kung Fu Man was created by WizzyWhipItWonderful. The music was done in a Marvel vs Capcom-based style.
