Both fighters wear similar clothing and have also cold and aloof demeanors, however, Remy is calmer and reserved, while Iori doesn't even try to hide his hatred. Remy's Omega symbol also looks similar to Iori's crescent symbol. However, Remy's is on his chest while Iori's is on his back. On the contrary, Remy's long turquoise hair is opposite of Iori's, which is red and spiked at the front. Also, Remy's fighting style is very composed, unlike Iori's very primal and instinctive style.

Personality

Remy seems calm and composed, but is in acutality a cruel and nihilistic warrior full of wrath and hostility. Though he sees fighting as futile, as it "victimizes people, destroys love, and creates hatred", he himself continues to fight as he is unable to forgive people like his father. Despite claiming to "hate everything that he sees", he does still care for his dead sister, whom he has preserved. His hatred may be the point of madness, as Alex thinks he is insane and should get a psychiatrist in their rival battle.

In his ending however, Remy realizes that while he cannot forgive his father yet, he must let go of his hatred and moves on with his life.
