I was a fan of the movie and didn’t want the concept of the Cyborg to be thrown away. I was even pushing it to be mugenized to give awareness to it’s existence western community. Same obsession that I want capcom to restore the idea of Zero-G Gouki to be in TVC and pursue it in MVC3 as a final boss that didn’t make it. Capcom have gem tons of ideas and creativity before late 90’s they were risk takers and ambitious in fighting genre specially street fighter before going into a lot of palette swaps era.
Sakura is one of the best things to happen to Ryu.
She actually brings out a side to his character that no other character in the series brings out…his big brother, mentor side.
That’s the mark of a good character addition…one who actually complements the existing ones.
No one except people in this thread care that much about everyone “being a grizzled, legitimate, hard core, serious FIGHT MAN”. Most people just want interesting appealing characters who interact with each other in satisfying ways. We aren’t living in the nineties, nineties, nineties anymore…so not everything has to be Hokuto no Ken.
Uh, Sakura doesn’t have skinny limbs. She’s actually pretty muscular. C’mon, man. This is a Capcom game we’re talking about. You know better.
Your inner sexist is showing, lol. You probably have no problem with a sickly old man fighting death matches with Akuma every 2 weeks using magic stabby fingers, but a KI USING GRILLLLLLL? That’s unbelievable!
My favorite costume after picking her. Sakura was one of the last characters I played before I completely moved on to KOFXIII. (I’ve played SFIV, SSFIVAE2012, and Ultra each for a very short period of time when I lived in Germany)…
Few more profiles. Might be clutching at straws for some of these. I went through most of the CPS2 SF and related games. Didnt bother with USF4 or UMVC3 so there might be more. Enjoy

Sakura’s strength didn’t come magically, she’s probably one of the most dedicated and focused character to training and street fighting. I mean her whole storyline is about getting stronger than Ryu and fighting strong opponents. She’s on an insane daily training program too, just watch her SSF4 intro.
This image alone just reminds you why Nash was a great fighter. As powerful as Bison is, Nash was still able to knock him around a good amount before the helicopter showed up.
SF2 Anime movie is great. And none of it’s greatness has anything to do with the monitor cyborg. It’s a dumb fucking robot that serves as nothing more than a glorified TV camera in about 20 seconds of the movie. A Shadaloo soldier with a camcorder could have done the exact same job.
