*BSR: What sort of research did you do to bring the Shadaloo villains into the story?
JA: Decapre was introduced in “Ultra Street Fighter 4,” she was one of the new characters who was one of Bison’s dolls, contemporary of Cammy, known as Killer Bee back then, before she was liberated from being sort of an evil Shadaloo assassin and became a force for good. So I thought, Decapre is an interesting character that we’ve only just been introduced to, whether or not she’s going to be in 5 we don’t know. She could well be a DLC character coming down the line. I’m like, she’s definitely will factor in as an agent for Shadaloo into what’s going on in this time period that “Resurrection” deals with. And “Resurrection” deals with the question, is Shadaloo as an organization, back? Because they were all but destroyed and dismantled post the events of “Street Fighter 2.” If you remember in “Street Fighter 4” it’s S.I.N. is the organization that’s really the main villain. Bison kind of reveals at the end that he was behind it all along, type thing. “Assassin’s Fist” was very male dominated, a lot of people were like, I wonder how Joey and team will tackle the female fighting characters, their costumes, their fighting styles, who are they going to cast? How is it going to look? So in this series you have Decapre and Laura Matsuda, female fighting characters. Again, it’s a challenge, it would be easy to say, Oh I’ve only got six months so let me just give you more of the same, another little vignette of Ryu and Ken in the mountains doing stuff, that wouldn’t challenge me. I wanted to bite of something completely new that is really going to do something and move the narrative forward, create new ground.

Looks like it’s out… but fuck go90. You can’t even watch it on a PC, and it doesn’t look like you can cast the app to a chromecast either.
Guess I’ll wait for someone to upload it elsewhere because I’m not gonna watch it on my phone. Why did they choose to release it on something so shitty? lol.
Its some bullshit Machinima deal with Verizon, which means everyone else on the planet can’t watch it… Machinima don’t care as long as they make a profit
Man the hype for the Bison casting is like every summer blockbuster x 10 for me atm. Also yea, gonna need to Steel Book this as well lol, need to keep Gil making music.
If you are in the US then you just download the go90 app apparently its free to watch on there but you’ll probably have to create a Verizon account to access it.
Shit is probably gonna be better than resurrection tbh, white face Bison was legit and Vega got big ass erection after taking that 10 string combo to the dick.
