It was Zangief's "projectiles analysis" in the SF2 Animated Movie fanbook, although its general tone was not very serious and it showed the characterisation of its time.
 

 
18: Zangief's
1: great projectiles analysis
2: Watch the secrets of the projectiles I examined!
3: New move that vanishes projectiles!
4: Vanishing Flat!!
5: Ryu's Hadōken
6: A lump of natural energy. No worries about public damage.
7: About the same of the standard body temperature.
8: Its damage doesn't vanish immediately after hit, but it lasts in your body for a while.
9: Air Slasher
10: A whirlwind which cuts everything.
11: If it hits, you hear music. I swear.
12: Being a wind, the same of atmospheric temperature.
13: Ken's Hadōken
I don't know if it's because he trained less than Ryu, but it's smaller than his.
14: Not much power, but it hurts like hell.
15: Neither hot nor cold.
16: The great stupid analysis of professor Zangief! ¹
17: Can we really trust him?!
19: Kikōken
20: An improved version of the qìgōng² energy used to heal.
21: It did hurt, but it healed my stiff shoulders.
22: About the same temperature of a warm bath.
23: Ryu's Fire Hadōken
24: He adds his own energy to the natural one.
25: If it hits, it feels like boiling water.
26: Not enough to burn your clothes, but hot enough to hurt.
27: Sonic Boom
28: A wave attack produced by both arms going over the speed of sound!
29: Colder than Russian winter.
30: Feels like an impact with a wall.
31: Yoga Fire
32: I don't understand Yoga's secrets. Someone explain them to me!
33: If it hits, it feels like you eat spicy curry.
34: Seems the same temperature of boiling curry.
35: Tiger Shot
36: A materialisation of Sagat's evil heart.
37: If it hits, it leaves like a fierce beast's bite. It's freezing cold, like Sagat's heart.³
Yes, there was more in the same page about the game chronology and Ryu and Ken's friendship, but I didn't have the time and desire to translate it, too long.
Anyway, at least there is a source for that claim. How much still reliable is all that regarding the present characterisation is up to debate, though...
 
¹ Although it was one of the first instances of Zangief being presented as a learned character, it wasn't treated seriously like nowadays.
² Remember that 気功 kikō is just the Japanese reading of the Chinese qìgōng, the same characters.
³ Of course Sagat is not like that anymore. Characterisation marches on!

Hakan's hair colour was... just based on a wordplay. Basically, since turquoise etymologically comes from the French pierre turquoise, "Turkish stone", and in Japanese is even more immediately evident (トルコ Toruko = Turkey, トルコ石 toruko ishi = turquoise, literally "Turkish stone", again; トルコ人 torukojin = Turkish man) ... yes, they gave him turquoise hair... made of stone...

Kinu Nishimura's drawing for the Capcom/Tezuka collab in Takarazuka. LOL, I'd never thought about Princess Knight's Friebe for this, even though she was one of my favourite characters from Tezuka's works, her minor character status notwithstanding. Obviously she has in common with Mika just the hearts on her breast(plate)s, but still a nice pairing (pun shamelessly intended).

Why should Necalli devour Bison? 🤔

Why should Necalli devour Bison? 🤔

I'm really in the camp of just moving on and forgetting about Necalli. The devs can put their focus on anything else.
