Kick ass Street Fighter IV anime sequences

After 10 years of Street Fighter intro and ending sequences consisting of gif images that slide across the screen, it’s great that Capcom finally decided to grace us with animated sequences. Nobody looks to Street Fighter for its story, but it’s good to finally have a game with a stronger narrative that everybody can follow. It’s a shame we didn’t get Chun-Li sporting the un-bunned hair, wife beater and denim hot pant combo that she rocked in her Street Fighter II ending on the SNES version. But I guess waistcoat, skinny jean, Chuck Taylor wearing Chun-Li will do for now. Fans of ‘Chun-Li’s titties in the shower’ scene from Super Street Fighter II: The animated movie can do away with their wishful thinking of that scene getting re-created for Street Fighter IV. It ain’t happening.

One thing got me though. Why does Guile’s wife look like a man? I thought it was Ken at first and that Capcom were throwing a gay relationship into the mix. Well…people have argued for years Ryu and Ken have never had eyes for anybody else but one another. But to have an all American man like Guile embark on a relationship with Ken would be a curveball to say the least!

Street Fighter IV doesn’t have a console release date as of yet, but this anime video shows Capcom are well into production and that Cammy is a dead cert. Other console exclusive characters include Dan and Fei-Long, with the possibility of other characters from the Alpha and III series’ making appearances. I’m all for Sakura and Ibuki.

      Oh yes I’m ALL for Sakura to be included, after reading the Sakura manga now she’s one of my favorite characters.

      I liked the anime although I was still trying to figure-out what Li was doing with her mouth at the beginning. Sakura would be an interesting mix.
