Can anyone please ID this character? I got it from one of those old sites that used to have pictures and little animations for people to use on forums like 2 decades ago. I zoomed in a bit for this, looks like a guy from King of Fighters or something.

maybe it's Kaede from "The Last Blade" series?

I love you bro, that's exactly it. Can't believe this is the guy I used as an avatar for so long, I feel like I gotta play this now. I'm familiar with that site btw, always charming to see classic galleries.
