On one hand I am always amazed at what kids can learn and latch onto in the weirdest ways. So I have no doubt that a lot can be learned through context. Watching movies can absolutely demonstrate a seemingly endless scenarios in a way that can be understood.

However, as someone raising a child, let me tell you how often I have to stop and explain that certain things are not real just because there's a video of it. Or how many words are being used incorrectly because they were heard in one context that was misunderstood.

I think a child who only had media to teach them, with no one to correct things, would have an endless amount of misunderstandings - nevermind the amount of things they'd believe that are entirely fictional. Basically, no, this kid would be screwed.

Killer Instinct, arcade and SNES Killer Instinct 2 (arcade) which was kind of ported as Killer Instinct Gold (N64)

Those are my top tier without a doubt.

Bloody Roar : Primal Fury was absolutely excellent as well.

I remember these when they came out and were getting passed around on flash sites. It was maybe a couple years later that they remade the animation- my brother and a couple of our friends were so excited we all gathered around a computer to watch it together and we were all floored!

I think the one you linked is, by far, the more recognized one.

Maaaaaan this brought me back. The original animation for this was from 2000.

The original animation in case anyone who hasn't seen it is curious.
