It’s going to be interesting to see how people are going to use her. Judging from her vids, it seems she’s quite versatile so I feel that’ll open up quite a few playing styles with her. Of course her final version could be quite different to what we’re seeing now.
Honda has Ochio. Gen has charge and non charge moves. Bison has Teleport. That’s half the charge characters in SF4. 3s has Remy.
And Urien, and Alex, and Oro.
I like Seth being a legitimate villian, though. We have a vengeful Greek god, a psycho dictator and a millitant who wants to make a utopia. Can’t we have a businessman who used his latest investment to fight? Plus, Bison has too many henchmen characters already.
also jab–>hands for honda as well as many amazing normals…
used much more frequently than his charge moves
I always wanted Rugal to have a sex change.
I think she look boring.
Look at all the female character in sf4 … They basicly look like the average sub heroine of japanese mangaka…
Give us a real Woman that know how to fight.
agreed, i think she can rush down very well. and seems like she has good defense as well not only because of her counter. but her normals are good as well from what we have scene from the videos.
Already mentioned, she looks alot like Jolyne Kujo, the lead heroine from one of the later series’ of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure - possibly continuing a traditon of SF characters inspired by anime/manga characters. That said, I’m having trouble figuring out how you find her boring.
I like that she seems to be a rushdown character. In fact I’m hoping that she’s designed to be most effective rushing down on turtles.
Damn dude, there must be no pleasing you.
But he isn’t.
He got played by Viper and Bison gave him the “just as planned”. You see the Vega/Balrog/Seth helicopter scene? You know you’re getting played when Vega and Balrog have to save you and they’re laughing on the inside.
There was like five people there facing down one Seth. And he’d just been hit by Ryu’s ‘pure’ satsui no hadou. I really wouldn’t want to stay and fight, either. And Bison’s given the ‘just as planned’ to Akuma and (quite probably) Gill and Urien now. Its his thing.
I wasn’t really talking about the beating Seth got(Bison had ppl waiting in a line to kick his ass in A3), just that he gets no respect.
Bison most certainly did not give Akuma a just as planned. More like a “that was not planned at all but whatever I’m still good”.
Well, yeah, if you include mash moves then in World Warrior the only pure charge character was Guile.
I can easily imagine Bison saying those exact words.
I thought I read somewhere Bison didn’t expect to die, but he was testing out the satsui no hadou to see how powerful it was.
Could it have been from the Udon comics(I don’t read them)? I don’t know of any retcons to what happened in ST(Bison didn’t know anything about Akuma before getting surprise demoned).
Juri as a content minion does not sit well with me! I want her pulling some strings, dammit!!! Spider ladies always have a web…
Maybe that was Seth testing out the satsui no hadou in the comics. I know the most recent issue of SF4 was meant to be Seth vs Akuma, but I haven’t read it yet. Maybe I just picked up a rumour on it. I’ll try to see if I can find it soon.
Also, to the post above me, I think she’d be like Seth’s parallel of Vega. Cocky, kind of…‘weird’, manipulative.

If I’m reading this correctly, Ono describes Juri’s style as a “Fei-Long-ish Viper”. And something about having to balance her so she’s not too strong or too weak. May be slightly off; going mostly off of automatic translations, but perhaps someone more fluent can take a shot at it.
