I’ve seen in a japanese site a picture from a game in which was Retsu redesigned. Does anybody knows from which game it is? It seemed something like SNK vs CAPCOM, I guess…
The mysterious Retsu
Maybe it’s just capcom art? They do that alot. Was it in game art?
A link would help alot. Anyways while this thread is around let’s try to gather as much Retsu info as possible. All I know about him is he trained with Gouken and was a really good fighter.

there was a picture I saw a long time ago. Retsu was scratching his head and Dan was holding hid face. It looked like retsu busted dan’s face open. :tup:
I saw this pic in the SF alpha 2 stragedy guide. It’s probally hard to find.
Did anyone notice Retsu in issue 6 of the SF udon comic? :encore:
Found it.
Yep, I’ve been searching the site, and I found it. It’s right here: http://www1.bbiq.jp/red-cyclone/syokaifile/retsu/retsu.html And the picture is this one: http://www1.bbiq.jp/red-cyclone/syokaifile/retsu/IMG_retsu.jpg
Hope you see it and answer, please, guys.
Retsu looks bad-ass. What game was that screen from?
Hehe, that’s my question (hey, i’ve seen your pics) One day will draw like you (I hope, at least…)
Who the hell is SHIN RETSU?
retsu is the human form of bishamon for darkstalkers.

pic is called “bishamon in human form”
hope that helps
Its from a multitude of games. The whole picture itself looks like a Mugen game that for some reason has Bishamon sprite. The background looks like the Silver Samurai background from X-Men:COTA, and the life bars are from Alpha 3. The Bishamon sprite is from Darkstalkers. The fonts above the name are either the same template from Alpha 3 “character names” or someone just recreated the font and fabricated Retsu under the scanned drawing. Not really sure where the profile picture beside the lifebar came from but I’m sure about the other aspects of the picture.
Retsu!!!

Yeah that helps clear up the mystery. I think this whole thing was a joke. A pretty good one though.
the shin retsu thing is pretty funny too. Where’s that pic from?
Good job Nokato!! 
Great detective work!!!
Thank you guys!
It’s RETU, the end-boss from Final Fight 2 (Super Famicom / SNES). His name is also pronounced “retsu,” but the FF2 staff romanized it as “retu.”

That sprite pic isnt Retsu. Its Bishamon. Period.
thats fine. the point is that its also the sprite used in the other game for the character retsu.
Yeah but the game definately ain’t official… perhapes a MUGEN game or maybe just a tailored pic…
I did a fanart piece of Retsu the other day so I thought I’d post it here,
In honour of Retsu the street fighter we hardly knew.
Retsu again …
