K' winpose:
"Mou unzari nan da yo." - I'm bored already...

Done with his old "Doitsumo, koitsumo" winpose animation.

Honestly, I have no idea how the hell that translates.
*Pushes the "SUMMON PS/GOJIRA" button*
Sorry, didn't notice this before.

"Shikata ga nai hito desu ne"

Loose translation: "Such a demanding/stupid/stubborn person"
Shikata ga nai means "No other way" literally. In a context like this, a close English equivalent might be "You're so stubborn/persistent that there's no reasoning with you, and the only way to stop you is to bash your head in".

Something along those lines.

Momoko vs Jenet:
Momoko: Oppai ya~n! OPPAI YAA~N!
Jenet: (Usual intro vs females)

...hard to translate, but it loosely translates as "OMG BEWBS!"

o_O

Might as well toss this out here:

Gai vs Ryo (ROUGH TRANS)
Gai: You're the invincible dragon that everyone talks about?
Ryo: I'll show you the fist of Kyokugen!

Well, I'm not sure if this is right but here's the dialogue for Malin vs. Yuri.

Malin: "Majime ni yatte kureru!" (You better take me seriously!)

JUST for 7d3j, from the KOFXI mook:

Kyo vs Iori:

Kyo: Yagami...
Iori: Kyo...
Kyo & Iori: Let's go!

So much for the 3-minute long intro XDDDDD

K' vs Kula:

K': Yameru nara ima no uchi da ze... (If you want to stop now's the time...)
Diana: Bokuchan de wa ano ko ni katenai wa yo. (You can't beat this child.)

The "bokuchan" bit showed up in their 2K2 intro too...still no idea wtf it means.

Isn't she suggesting that he is still a boy, thus should be calling himself "boku" instead of "ore?"

And Momoko's intro vs. females: O_O What is with that little girl? She LOVES Athena and likes boobs!

Momoko only says that against the big breasted female characters (Mary, Vanessa, Jenet, Elizabeth)

Athena vs. Momoko Pre-Match Intro

Athena: "Un! Momoko, Ganbaru!"
"OK! Momoko, do your best/Good luck!"

And here's an easy one.

Mary vs. Terry.

Mary: "Rettsu faito, Teri!"
(No translation is needed.)

The way it's written makes me think that Momoko's the one saying that. If Athena were saying it, it'd be "ganbare," "ganbatte," "ganbarinasai" or something along those lines.

i.e.
Momoko: OK! Momoko will do her best!

Mind you I haven't actually seen the intro yet so I might be wrong.

Actually, I think you're right. I think that Momoko is talking for that scene.

"Gotannou ita daketa ka ne?" - Oswald WinQuote (B)

It basically says "how are my skills?" in a very polite way.
