Who's your favorite Street Fighter character? I like Sakura because she's cute and strong.
>>12901727Design wise? Skullmania
It's wild how much culture has changed in the last 30 years. You can't have a character like Sakura anymore because too controversial now. She's not even in the newest game, and in the last game they aged her up. But back in the 90s she was a popular character and there was no problem with including her in the game.
Best girl. Then. Now. Forever.
What's the relationship between her and Dan?
>>12901753Someone who joined his classes out of pity.
>>12901727Ken is always my main in any game he’s in. Not sure when it started, maybe it was because my buddy would always choose Ryu so I went Ken and just kept it up after the street fighter 2 days. Probably favorite iteration is alpha 3 version. I like his design and his supers are cool to me.
>>12901753Joke characters
the one the onlypeak shotofuckor get fucked
Sakuras socks on my face
>>12901740She's not in the newest game because she'd be a hag by nowI wonder if Capcom regrets not sticking with a more vague timeline. Having the characters age in real time seems a gigantic pain in the ass, for Resident Evil too
>>12901820She was already an adult in SF4 and only still wearing a school outfit because it was her trademark look.
I don't get how incidental panty shots are supposed to be that erotic. It's just underwear.
>>12901753Dan acted sorta like her legal guardian in the manga. Remember Sakura is a minor and she travels the world to find Ryu. Dan is a weakling, but he actually knows a lot about traveling around, since he had to live on his own after his father died. He knows various languages (japanese, english and portuguese confirmed) and the best ways to travel around various countries.In SF4 Aftermath, a forgotten OVA released around the time of SF4, Dan and Blanka work as her coaching corner in fighting tournaments.
>>12901909They're bloomers (Physical Education clothes), not panties.
>>12901917On one hand that makes it even less erotic, on the other hand I guess people find athletics/sweat hot.>bloomersWhy the fuck does the same word refer to the exact opposite things?
Bison.I apologize for nothing.
>>12901909Are you serious?
>>12901960Yes. She's not even doing some "ohh you saw them how could this happen wink wink" face, she's just doing a kick
>>12901751That's not Sakura
>>12901820I'm calling it now: next game will ag3 everyone down.>>12901768I'm pretty sure this is how all Ken mains start. Zero 3 is the best game btw.
>>12901957That's Vega. Bison is the black guy.
>>12901985This is an American website.
>>12901985>>12902024dictator, boxer, claw you fags
>>12901967>it's just underwearHugging the contours of her pussy and ass. It's an upskirt shot too. If you don't think that's erotic, well, we might as well just stop talking about it right now, since you're hopeless.
>>12902026It's not that underwear isn't sexually appealing, the image just kinda lacks the context for it to be.>you're hopelessProjecting gooner
>>12902053How am I projecting when I am to understand that it's erotic you fucking idiot? Do you just....say shit without know what you're saying?
>>12901740They aged everyone up, that's what happens when you advance your timeline.
>>12901727my favorite Street Fighter character is non-retro>>12901820she's not in the newest game because they can only produce 4 characters a year, and there are a dozen other boomer picks ahead of her in queue
>>12901931as an American, bloomers would colloquially refer to a much shorter and less roomy version of these that are essentially puffy boyshorts
>>12901985this>>12902025cope terms literally nobody actually wants to use
>>12902057You're projecting your hopelessness.>>12902080Same thing pretty much
I don't like sf, but back in the day I enjoyed playing as Dudley and Ken in 3S, and Karin in A3
>>12902150>You're projecting your hopelessness.That doesn't make any sense, since the hopelessness in question was in understanding panties being erotic...You tard.
Skullomania, Area, Dan, Q and not-retro Rufus.
>>12901740She's literally in Fortnite in the same outfit
>>12902024Localizations aren't canon and we're talking about a Japanese game
>>12902059And they'll probably age everyone back because ageing them up was retarded
>>12902165t. fag
>>12902240But do you see her panties and bra in Fortnite? And is flashing them (unintentionally) a major part of her character personality in that game? And is she still a high school girl?
>>12901727toss up between charlie and urien.
எனக்கு தல்சிம் (Dhalsim) பிடிக்கும். அவர் ஒரு மிகச்சிறந்த போராளி — அனைவரிலும் அவரே சிறந்தவர்! அவர் இந்தியாவை ஒரு முன்னணி உலக வல்லரசாக மாற்றிக்கொண்டிருக்கிறார்! ஐயா, தயவுசெய்து அந்த கூகுள் கார்டைப் பயன்படுத்தாதீர்கள் (மீட்காதீர்கள்).
>>12902292No. She wears shorts under the skirt and is aged up.
>>12901727raging boner
>>12902380Ok, so what I said remains true
Alex because you cant escape him.
>>12901727Ken Masters.
>>12902289That's not happening unless you want reboot slop.
>>12902417*jumps after the super flash*Command throw you got there, bitch.
>>12901727Reminder that there's no fan art of this.
Adon .
>>12903142Street Fighter Alpha was reboot slop and remain the best SF games.
>>12901727Liar. You like her because of her pantsu.
>>12903297those are bloomers though.
>>12903297I said she was cute
>>12903310prove it.
>>12903283>RebootIt's a prequel, bozo.
>>12903480Keep telling yourself that, retard. Alpha is in no way consistent with previous lore.
>>12901909I bet you don't get a lot of things>>12902210p sure you were getting baited
>>12901727I main charge characters like Guile/Nash and dictator suiting my personality best. However, Cammy was my favorite when I was young and unable to perceive all the signals of a lesbian. I was fooled by the English translation of her ending being the young lover of dictator.
>>12901727elena, she's fun to play as, utterly cute and sexy, and i love her reasons for fighting because i identify with it as a casual fighting gamer
>>12901740you have become the creep that lurks outside of high-schools trying to pick up underage girls
I also like Sakura she is my main in all the Street Fighter games she appears in
>>12903713the Venn diagram between troons and people lusting over underage girls is practically a circle, anon
12903717nope. ur just trans.
>coping faggot too scared to give a (you)you lost, projecting loser. go offer 15 year olds beer
>>12902289Aging up is fun in concept, and some studios pull it off.But Japan is incapable of doing it well. For some reason they always make fan favorite characters into cucks or losers and then shoehorn in some dogshit new character nobody gives a shit about.
>>12903675She's based on a real Japanese model. Do you ever goon to the real model or do you only goon to fan art of the character?>>12903679You're projecting again, troon.
>>12903728>and then shoehorn in some dogshit new character nobody gives a shit aboutLike the white guy in SF6?
>>12903741bit of an awkward question, isn't it anon? no, I haven't gooned to Yuki Uchida, and it's been a while since I had a good elena fap session, about as long as it's been since I last played 3rd strike.
12903727lost what? you lost your marbles? ok tranny u like lil boys. yucko.now seethe ur dismissed, worthless shit for brains retard.
>>12903717you don't fucking talk to me like that
ELENAhighleg bikinipixie cutgreat attitudeamazing legs
>>12903750I love the pic of her in the black and white bikini where she's jumping and you can really see her tush
>>12903675>>12903767Came here to post this. >>12903750Elena is way hotter though
>>12903789well yeah she's Kenyanyuki is still peak tomboy
im trans and i like cocks in my ass.this is me.>>12903679
>>12903769
>>12903750>>12903935That is clearly a man…
>>12902320Dhalsim top tier 2030
>>12901727Sakura has a fat pussy, wonder if she's tight
>>12903947>Active fighter who trains all the timeCourse she is
>>12901727
>>12903935yeah that one! very athletic butt, and great bikini designimagine the grip
>>12903297>>12901727I like her for a different reason
>>12901727I actually really enjoy playing as Chun Li in Third Strike but Ibuki and Elena are a lot of fun too oh and I love playing as Rose in Alpha 3
>>12901957I actually really like fighting my friend when he plays as Bison, he's difficult to fight against but in a fun way
>>12903489That's not how reboots work.
>>12904810Am I the only one who thinks that Ibuki looks like she smells bad?
>>12905446it's cause her shit's all brown. it looks like she's wearing a big poo
Sakura is a good waifu better than Chun Li and Cammy
>>12905506>Chun LiPost-menopausal hag>Cammy WhiteBipolar with severe daddy issues and autoandrophilia
>>12905509You forgot to mention that Chun Li is Chinese and Cammy is white. Sakura is obviously the superior choice.
>>12905446Ibuki is super self-conscious, so she's probably one of the nicest-smelling Street Fighter girls (assuming you don't like the smell of tomboy sweat).
>>12903142The street fighter series timeline is all over the place already if you look at them form release order. Alpha/Zero 1-3 are in between 1 and 2, and 4 and 5 are between 2 and 3. Chronologically its 1 A/Z 2 4 5 3 6. They could easily throw 7 some where in the middle there because the story doesn't matter in the end. What matters is the characters we get to play as. If the timeline progresses to the point that Ryu and Ken no longer exists or Chun Li and Cammy get too old, they wont even bother with progressing it.
>>12905446her color palette is reminiscent of sewage. She looks fine when she's in regular clothes
>>12904741i like her for a different reason, too
>>12901727Street Fighter characters are mostly shit. Sakura is cute but paedo bait , Karin is better but the same. Cammy is good, Guy and Cody don't count. Juri is a queen but she's modern, and a clear SNK rip off.I guess Charlie was the closest thing to a "cool" character they had in the retro era
>>12905315Yes it is, retard.
>>12901727I fucking love buruma
>>12905517Indeed. Because she is a child.
>>12905624Always wished they did a true SF Alpha, or the reverse of 3, where the fighters are all mostly younger versions of older characters in their primes, some more SF1 and Slam Masters nigs (and finally add Haggar) and maybe make a young and ambitious Akuma as the Ryu like MC.
>>12905835Alpha isn't a reboot of any previous game or storyline retard.>>12905624Capcom is probably going to do a KoF thing were every game after 6 happens in the exact same year as 6, until they eventually decide to go back to SF2 again.People were fine with alpha taking place before 2 and 4 taking place before 3, but not with 5 being before 3 and 6 barely advancing anything, they won't restart the whole thing so soon.
>>12901727My local Arcade has an Original Street Fighter 2 machine but the joystick is busted. Should I suggest them maintain/replace it but affect OG status or just deal with it but making playing harder?
>>12906223>cuckI guarantee you it isn't the original joystick that came with the cabinet already.SF2 was a kit machine in the US. It never had an original official console. So that cabinet has no OG status anyway.
>>12902320Based
Nakadashi while she leg locks you
After the newest movie, Ken.
>>12901727'buki
>>12906757Inferior Mai rip off
Low Strong
>>12902024No it's not, it's owned by a Japanese man living in France.
Hnnng Japanese schoolgirls
>>12907192What does she have in common with Mai besides being a girl ninja
>>12908365She has tits and a vagina
>>12908514that's a prerequisite of being a girl.
>>12901727Ibuki.I just like how she plays. Cool design too.
>>12908550Some of them have penises these days
Erotic
>>12901931Athletic bloomers were a thing in America too, they just went out of style so long ago nobody remembers them, while in Japan they stayed around and had their size and tightness changed while keeping the same name.
>>12901727Her boot too big for she got dang feet>>12905626>>12906757>>12903767>>12901751Hot.
>>12901727i dont like her design in 6 tho.
>>12901727Brazilian Mikuhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0AaiRKLuIeo
>>12903589Greato!
>>12908921what the fuck are you talking about, they can only be one thing
I have trouble picking just one favorite. I really like almost all the /vr/-era SF characters, the guys and the girls.Gun to my head, I'll say Effie. She's so cute; she's got that perfect mix of naughty and nice. She was the reason I picked up Necro when I was first getting into Street Fighter.>Outta my way!>Ahhhhhhhhh!
>>12908365Mai is like, a Japanese "gag" in which the female ninja which should be traditionally a stoic trained killer is actually just like a bubbly lovesick girl.Likewise, Ibukis only known character trait is being like a boy crazy ditz. She's also in a game that had a lot of comparison to SNK, which does seem to add credence to the idea that was once considered fact but now people question because..I don't really know, that SF3 wasn't originally started as a Street Fighter continuation but a new series
>>12910901>Likewise, Ibukis only known character trait is being like a boy crazy ditz.Balancing school life and ninja training and being a high school girl. Her thing is that she's very normal and just happens to have a ninja side gig. If SF3 wasn't a huge dud, I think they could have done a whole extended universe manga/anime about the SF girls, focusing on Ibuki.
>>12910901>Ibukis only known character trait is being like a boy crazy ditz.No. Ibuki's character is that she hates being a ninja and wants to lead a regular life as a normal schoolgirl but keeps getting wrapped back up in stuff that forces her to be a ninja.
>>12901978And thank goodness for that!
>>12910768effie is such an underrated cutie 3.14
>>12901740Sakura had detractors when she was new too. Many Japanese fans wrote letters to Capcom about Sakura was "over the ine" in terms of being a cutesy anime girl and ruining the tone of the series.
Gonna go with Cody. He’s an actual street fighter, and he has a character arc. From hero, to thug, to the mayor. And I’m a sucker for the jeans and sneakers look. Was never a fan of his prison look, but I understand it’s more iconic. Disappointed he and guy didn’t get in the new movie.
>>12911919Chun Li was my first video game crush, but I barely play as her.
>>12911810That's an Western urban legend based on a misunderstanding/mistranslation of this page from All About Street Fighter Zero 2. Sakura was hugely popular both in Japan and America basically from as soon as she was playable straight through until now. If you look through old Usenet posts about her it's nothing but people gushing about how cute she is and how cool she is and how fun she is to play. And one look at old comiket doujins tells you everything you need to know about how instantly people loved her in Japan.
Guile (cool ver.)
>>12912364Usenet posts in the 90s isn't exactly representative of anything but the biggest nerds around lol. Street Fighter wasn't a "weeb game" or "nerd game" back then it was a popular franchise normal guys liked. I have heard even from plenty of older players that they were turned off by Alpha as a whole adopting an anime look compared to IIs "realistic" look. I didn't care because I was like 6 and loved cartoons anyway, but I'm just saying
>>12912364https://shmuplations.com/vampiresavior/>—And what about BB Hood?>We did receive some criticism though. “Capcom’s finally gone and done it…” (laughs) The second series to have a “Sakura”* incident, I guess. >*Sakura’s debut in Street Fighter Zero/Alpha 2 was quite divisive among Gamest’s audience in particular, with opinions split about her congruence with the existing harder-edge image of Street Fighter and certain design elements that were seen by some as overly pandering to otaku.The image of SF back then was different. It had pandering elements, like Cammy, but was seen more in spirit of classic martial arts films which was "cool" to the less nerdy audiences. Adding a very generic schoolgirl in a sailor outfit and saying "Yeah, she fights as well as everyone else" could definitely be seen as "over the line" compared to all characters in the series prior.
>>12913026Cammy and Sakura accurately present exactly what "fan service" meant to US vs Japan lol. Cammy could have easily fit in like a Rob Leifeld comic or something, I always assumed she was one of the American designed characters and was surprised when I found out she wasn't, the leotard look and special ops vibe is very 90s comic book
