The Ultra Inevitable Street Fighter V Story Thread

@Shockdingo @Chun-Li_Forever Ok, I’ve read the article Ryoredcyclone wrote about Chun-Li’s EIGHT DIVERSE FATHERS in various interpretations of the canon, and in this novel Chun-Li’s father is named 火龍 Huǒ Lóng (“Fire Dragon”).


He was stockier than the Dorai we now know, so at least this part isn’t canon anymore. Additionally, Chun-Li was given a surname, 楓 Fēng (“Maple”). Her mom was named 美華 Měi Huá (“Beautiful Flower”). Chun-Li’s surname was disregarded since then, and she has had at least another two surnames in Western movies, so make of that what you will.

Not saying it’s okay. Just that that’s probably why.

Zangief and Alex have an argument

[spoiler]
Alex: “At ease, loser.”

Zangief: “ACTUALLY…”

Alex: “…?! The fuck? ANTI-AIR!”

Zangief: “Okay, but wait.”

Alex: “You’re still ain’t dead?”

Zangief: “Come here for a second.”

Alex: “What? No!”

Zangief: “Naw. I just want to have a casual conversation with you about muscle power.”

Alex: “WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT RIGHT HERE?!”

Zangief: “This is the RED CYCLONE!”

If this video had

  • Standard Zangief, standard color
  • SF3/Nostalgia Alex, standard color
  • Zangief stage or first CPT Stage (wrestling/boxing ring)

This video will be beautiful visual poem.
I will like to pretend it even being canon and treat of spd whoever disagree.

Instead everything got picked to be ugliest eyesore as possible, i blame capcom

What an eyesore. Didn’t even know it was Alex until I looked at the lifebar. This game’s visuals are shameful.

I’ll have to be careful about what I use for comedic value next time.

Hah, same here! Totally thought it was him!

Agreed. An action game with Cammy, Chun Li and Guile could be awesome! I’m just thinking about how many character moments and lore we could get when not restricted to a fighting game format. I’d be down for this wholesale!

That’s why I loved Namco X Capcom so much. I still own the PS2 disc. The sequels Project X Zone and Project X Zone 2 weren’t as good in the story department, though. Cannon Spike was also a good opportunity, but it didn’t seem to have any story at all.

tfw there will never be X Zone 3 or Namco vs Capcom 2

You know it’d be nice for Capcom to make something like Project X or SRW but with only Capcom characters. That would definitely be great to see.

From the top of my head, you could combine Interpol with other groups like the Maverick Hunters, BSAA etc and have them face off against a variety of groups.

I just wish Capcom did more with their IPs in the “Everyone is here” kinda way. TEPPEN was an okay attempt but it’s just a wack digital collectible card game
