Introduction
After Kyo's kidnapping following the events of The King of Fighters '97, and Daimon's return to judo, Benimaru would be the sole member of Team Japan to fight in the next two King of Fighters tournaments (those being the '99 tournaments and 2000 tournaments, respectively). One of the few characters who has competed in every single KOF tournament to date, Benimaru is currently the character with the most KOF wins (sitting at 8 wins), and his team in KOF15 is considered to be the heavy favourite to win the tournament entirely. This sounds really good but apparently it means nothing to Capcom considering Benimaru is merely a Ratio 1 character (on the same level as scrubs like Dan!)
EX Benimaru plays much more similarly to Benimaru in KOF98, bringing over his command normal, anti-air Raijin Kens and his command grab. Normal Benimaru may be more up to your speed if you want a simpler Benimaru.
