Only a couple I wasn’t too sure about; Acer is correct about the Shiroitachi name, it seems like it’s written in kanji cause the first two characters mean “innocence” which is also what Shiro can mean as well.
If you have the matches with these players and the commentator Shend, maybe I can listen to his announcements to clarify the names I’m unsure about.
It’s definitely not me getting better man, its the Google translator tool :lol:
Oh and cheers for clearing up the Wataoni/Amaguri, i’d forgotten about it after the vids went up >_< I do have this one as well though: [media=youtube]87049PZfY7k[/media].
Incidentally, I was just wondering which players of characters other than Yun, Chun, Ken, Makoto and Urien had won any noteable tournaments. Although there is no doubt in my mind that all of these players are top notch and do well in competitive play, I was curious as to who had translated that ability into tournament victories, as whenever I have seen results it is the usual suspects that place.
I remember a Georgia’s Ryu winning one of the Kyushu Taikai (singles. Don’t remember the year)
If you count team tournaments too, Roshihikari-Kuroda-Yamazaki won a nicely sized team tournament about 3 years ago if I remember correctly.
Cooperation Cup 5 was won by Kuroda-Hayao-Aruka-Pierre-J. Yes the latter 2 have characters you mention, but the first 3 did a LOT with OCV’s here and there
expecially Kuroda’s Q that OCVed this team:
Team "Tokido’s Army"
Dragon Joe (Chun-Li)
Issei (Yun)
Keeper (Ken)
MOV (Chun-Li)
Misawa (Ken)
and if the names aren’t enough, keep in mind that this was the very team that had eliminated
Team "Royal Straight Flush"
Boss (Yun)
Mester (Yun)
Nitto (Yun)
Raoh (Chun-Li)
Umehara (Ken) (didn’t attend)
a friend of mine was there and watched part of coop cup 5. He asked to film but they didn’t allow him because “a dvd of that was to come out”.
2 years later, there’s still no sign of that footage coming out. They should have allowed my friend to film everything back then :sad:
