Turning Street Fighter into anime after SF2 was a mistake. It is a big reason why underground and street games like Tekken and KOF surpassed it in the late 90s
It was always anime.
I was glad they finally kind of moved on from SF2, they milked that tit beyond recognition.>world warrior>CE>turb>super>super turboeven as a kid back then who loved sf, i couldn't believe they didn't just make a couple more new characters and bgs and call it 3 instead of super

Wassup, Kevin Smith.
>>12460137Nope. Stylized and 2D, but not "anime".
>>12460137Only SFA was anime.
Tekken and SNK are equally as “anime” as Street Fighter.
>>12460134I know you are a truuniebot nigga, but catalog much?
I don't know what bothers me more, people pretending not to know what porn is, or people pretending not to know what anime looks like
>>12460351Cammy is anime as fuck
>>12460351>Roster literally has Rudolph Von Stroheim and Zoom punch referenceAnon...
>>12460137This. Also OP is retarded at best, more likely one of the bots that has been spamming garbage threads.
>>12460454>ANIME IS WHEN SILLY CHARACTERSno
>>12460483Anime is when you have characters clearly inspired by anime.
it was always anime and manga though.just more of the fist of the north star/jojo/rikioh type from the 80schun li was originally drawn up as an older Tao from Harmageddon.all they really did was give it a more current style with alpha.
>>12460134kamehamehadouken. also tekken and KOF are anime too. heihachi mishima is literally just heihachi edajima with more hair and an expanded vocabulary.
Alpha literally took heavy inspiration from the Street Fighter OVA and over stylized You can see it in Sagat himself and how we went from realistically lanky and buff to this cartoony muscle manPeople saying "hurrr it was always anime" are purposefully trying to understand what the people complaining are really trying to mean
>>12460757This was a fantastic series
>>12460351>Can't tell that Guile is a blatant copy of a JoJo character, among other anime/manga references in the main sfii roster>CRT filterChecks out
>>12461065>are purposefully trying to understandNOT understand
>>12461065>>12461142>Anime = most popular shonen slopMoron
>>12460134>>12460351>>12460357It was always anime
Shameful Kevin Smith spam thread
>Anime is when 2D and characters aren't entirely realistic
OP is correct
sakura has smelly feet based on from what I heard
>>12461183You're going to melt down and commit suicide once you play fighting games and hear everyone say the term "anime game", faggot
weebs think any drawing a Japanese person makes automatically means "anime"
KOF and Tekken = realistic and badass styleSF after 2 = cartoonish cornball anime shit like Darkstalkers (very cringe series)
>>12460134Everything that comes out of Japan is Anime!
Our resident shitposter is losing it, no one bought his bait and is lashing out like a kid.
>>12460142Perhaps one day Capcom will release "Street Fighter II 2", a true direct sequel to SF2.It will be like Bible 2, Jesus 2. The sequel everyone was waiting.
>>12461409If said drawing is based on anime or manga then i'd consider it anime.
Mike Tyson is my favorite anime
>>12460558Both are based heavily on Yasunori Kato, a live action movie character who in turn is based on a bookIn fact one SF2 poster directly rips it off
>>12461581Yes, but the specific portrait is based on the manga version of the character.
>>12460351>chooses a screenshot from super street fighter 2 with redone artworknot even trying man, I really thought you were gonna talk about street fighter 2's mix of western and eastern influences that show in the artwork.
>>12461438trvke
Behead Kevin Smith
>>12460134>meanwhile, SF2
>>12461715Is that Inafune? The style gives him away
>>12461672Cake first
>>12460134Why didn't you buy Street Fighter: The Movie: The Game: The Arcade Port then, you do nothing faggot?
>>12460351>StylizedCope term, just like choir-preacher zoomers saying this loser is "Gen 1 inspired" because i can't tell the ambiguous monster "Toxtricity" is based on a salamander.
>>12460351This is all very anime. Your idea of "anime" is too limited. Watch some 70s and 80s anime.
>>12465303idiot probably only watch pop anime like Akira or anything Gainax or something
>>12460134>KOFthis is the worse example you could cling on, they were basically the first people to ham it up
>>12460134>t is a big reason why>no evidence for this claim whatsoeverSuck enough cocks today op?
>>12460134Eat a dick, Sakura best girl.
>>12465943It's a Kevin Smith thread, what did you expect? The fucker is a notorious fightan shitposter.
>>12460134Only problem is Tekken was a franchise designed for people who suck balls at fighting games.therefore we can ignore tekken completely.
>>12465943It's my lived experience, zoomer. Everyone started to think Street Fighter was gay and Tekken and KOF was more badass and cool with realistic graphics
>>12461398I'm going to need some proof, anon.
>>12468723>designed for people who suck balls at fighting gamesNah, it made them better. Street Fighter is not fun to play, where as games like Tekken and Soul Calibur are always fun. Hell, Mortal Kombat 2 and Killer Instinct are both better.
>>12464991>You didn't see a street fighter psx game that digitized the movie cast and disgustingly ripped off mortal kombat>You didn't...>YOU DIDN'T!!! BECAUSE IT'S NOT THERE.
