She’s a serious girl. Guy never smiles too. They’re both badass. Perfect team/pairing
this stuff still burn my eyes
She can even give a cutthroat ninja matador assassin the youthful boyish appearance of Peter Pan.
Probably the most innocent looking Vega’s in official artwork.
Which why Guy was drawn to Maki’s sister Rena. She’s always smiling. Guy was dumbfounded by this unfamiliar expression.
Did’nt known Kiki is a woman, cool
Seriously, nothing particular against her, it’s even a style i may enjoy somewhere else… just not in SF, see gay beaver Ryu or cereal box kid Vega
It’s not that SF never changed artists, but some of them got the “Capcom” style: Ikeno, Bengus, Akiman, Kinu.
It’s like they give all theyr personal shade of the “capcom” color… Kiki’s stuff is just another color
Same for Artgerm
Similar for Shinkiro
Like I’ve said, I like it for exactly what it’s being used for here. Encyclopedia entries.
*He’s not I’m thinking of someone else.
You know…I’ll refrain from mentioning two prominent FGC players.
Final Fight … Interesting …
So we saw Haggar and Sodom earlier, and we just got Maki and Carlos. Does anyone else notice something missing?

Coming to SFV in Season 2, calling it now.
Yeah now that mention it. I do notice something missing.
His bio is probably coming later this week. They’re working through the series.
Does Capcom plan on putting together all these new profiles in a new resource book?
I’m actually curious whether Capcom considers FF3 to be canon. I’ll guess we’ll find out if Dean and Lucia show up in these articles.
Since the image of Maki was posted, I figured I’d do her Alpha 3 story. Here it is:
[details=Spoiler]Maki. a practitioner of the Bushinryu, has been traveling the world in search of Guy. Her objective is to fight Guy in order to see if she’s the true successor of Bushinryu. Her journey leads her to Sakura, naively believing Maki is a “female gangster” that uses weapons. Maki thinks she’s brave for addressing her that way before challenging her. Maki is impressed with Sakura’s ability. Sakura has fought someone that used similar moves to Maki. Guy of course. Maki questions his whereabouts and Sakura tells her.
Maki finally finds Guy in Thailand, eager to prove that she’s the true successor of Bushinryu is. Guy doesn’t care because he knows it’s inevitable that he’ll win. Once their fight is finished, Guy tells Maki that he’s more focused on putting an end to evil than something as trivial as the successor of Bushinryu. Maki understands and decides to defeat the source of evil herself.
The evil one is M. Bison. Maki has no idea who he is, but she knows he’s been causing a lot of trouble. Bison thinks this battle will be interesting compared to all of the other weaklings he’s fought up to that point. After the fight is finished, Bison realized that he underestimated Maki, who believes Bison needs to reconsider his evil approach. Hearing this, he launches a Psycho Shot at her, knocking her down and stunning her. Before she can recover, Bison prepares to unleash a Psycho Crusher. Before he can reach her, Guy steps in and uses his Bushin Muso Renge to obliterate the evil dictator.
Guy questions why Maki is in his way, annoying her. She understands that Guy has proved to be the better of the two this time, but they’ll reach a true conclusion next time. Guy agrees before leaving. Maki is confident she’ll prove to be the true successor of Bushinryu next time they meet.

Here’s Yun’s Alpha 3/SF4 story as well:
[details=Spoiler]Street Fighter Alpha 3:
Hearing a rumor about Fei Long’s involvement with shady drug dealers prompts Yun/Yang to search out Fei and confirm the rumors for themselves. When they find Dee Jay, they recognize him as someone who’s worked with Fei before and question if he knows where he is. Dee Jay has no problem helping as long as Yun “lays the rhythm before the words”, so they have a quick bout. When Dee Jay asks why they’re looking for Fei Long, Yun says it’s because they heard he was mixed up with drug dealers. Dee Jay says Fei is a nice guy and is definitely not involved with people like that. He tells Yun that Fei Long is going to a place where “strong fighters gather”.
Yun/Yang eventually finds end up in Thailand face-to-face with Fei Long. Fei questions if they’re members of Shadaloo, but Yun would rather fight than ask a coward questions. The movie star is confused as for why Yun is talking to him that way, but assures him that he has no right interfering in his business. After the fight, Yun realizes that Fei has no drugs in his hands since that was what he was doing according to the rumors. Fei informs him that there were dealings in his offices behind the scenes, so he had to go out and find the source of this. Yun knows he’s truthful, so he decides to fight Shadaloo alongside Fei Long.
They come across Balrog and Juni/Juli, who seemed to be waiting for them. Yun believes he can handle all three of them alone, though Fei Long reminds him that they need to fight together. With that, Fei Long takes on Balrog and Yun fights Juni/Juli alone. Yun defeats the duo before finding an unconscious Fei Long in front of Bison. Believing is the perfect ending for a “third rate actress”, Bison urges Yun to finish Fei Long off and join Shadaloo. Yun declines, claiming there won’t be a trace left of Bison when he’s finished. Bison believes he’ll regret not accepting his offer before attacking.
As Bison is staggering, Yun and Fei launch a combined assault to finish the evil dictator off for good. Fei thanks Yun/Yang for helping, while the two ask Fei for a chance to star in a movie. Many months later, there’s a scene of Charlie detecting Bison’s energy in the Shadaloo base, believing it’s a ghost. He wants to bomb the base, but Chun-Li tells him that Yun/Yang are still there. Knowing this, it’s up to them to end the battle. The twins attack Bison from opposite sides, completely erasing him for good. The leader of Shadaloo had no chance against their Kung-Fu. This was all from their film of Street King 2: Three Dragons. It became a box office smash hit.
Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition:
The twins watch Chun-Li as she leaves with Bison, wondering what kind of adventure she’s going on. Yun believes it has to be a strong opponent since she never loses to anyone around there way. This gives Yun the idea to follow her in hopes of coming across strong opponents. Yun most likely joined the S.I.N. tournament when he realized it existed. When Yun finds Chun-Li, she demands that he goes him, which Yun naturally refuses. This ends in a battle with no actual victor.
In the end, Yun admits he doesn’t understand “world domination”, but he enjoyed the adventure. Yang tells him he needs to start thinking of an explanation now that they’re almost home. Before he can realize what he means, Hoimei appears and comes after the twins. Yang trips Yun before he can run, then Hoimei starts dragging him by his ear. He has a lot of explaining to do when he gets home.[/details]

Good stuff! I was actually going to ask if you could still post the sections of the Final Fight characters on top of the Slammasters character entries from the AAC guide.
Yeah, there are a lot of throwbacks in the game. You don’t get to learn more than you should know about Ingrid, though.
Well shit, guess I was wrong.
The upper one looks sick, the thong-one is…
