Kolin repurposed Eleven and used it to resurrect Nash. It had it's use. 

Yes but Nash was a failure so Eleven was a DOUBLE failure

Dan has become a worthless except as a perfect example of Capcom's seeming inability to do anything but Flanderize their most prominent characters. Instead of being lovable and having redeeming qualities, Dan just keeps getting his joke-status upgraded again and again.

I'm hoping they prove me wrong...but I doubt it.

Man, I really really hope SF6 has a very new direction

So this is a thing.
 

Kengan Ashura chapter 74.5 as part of the collection. It’s legit and features a cross-over dream battle between Ohma (Kengan’s main character) and Akuma with a lot of side characters from both series featured.

That's great news. I love that game. Super fun and plays better than the Street Fighter Gem Fighters game.

Hey…

Possible source of inspiration for Rashid?

Hassad the Arabian Whirlwind from Kengan Ashura.

Came out a few years before SFV.

He’s defined by his incredible speed. DEFINITELY seems like a possible source of inspiration. If I find anymore parallels while I’m reading Kengan Ashura I will share them!

That's great news. I love that game. Super fun and plays better than the Street Fighter Gem Fighters game.

Ooh, good find man, that's pretty great!

Thanks! When I read it I had to share it! No way I would miss that opportunity. I love seeing all mystic side of martial arts rooted in centuries of tradition and belief across Japanese stories. So cool.

Hey guys, wanted to share some images from the Long Wolf & Cub manga where we see the ultimate assassin "Lone Wolf" Ogami Itto confront a living Buddha. As you can see, he can't kill him because the monk Wajo has attained Mu. Wajo goes on to explain...

Wajo even discusses sakki...the killing lust. Another word for sakki? Satsui no Hadou. Surge of killing intent.

This is further reinforcement of what I've talked about before in regards to how Mu works and why it stops the Shun Goku Satsu (and indeed is an ultimate defense). Only one that attains Mu can combat someone in a state of Mu. This is also in Hokuto No Ken.

Figured people would appreciate this little bit of info on Mu from one of the most influential manga of all time.

Like Final Bison/Bison 2/Shin Bison!

Not so much lol

Fingers crossed that we get one last character and that they're new as a bridge towards SF6.

Captain Commando Souls-Style game

MAKE IT HAPPEN! 😆

Wow Darkstalkers basically 100% improved every single design they had throughout the process.

That is actually really impressive. That series really did churn out the BEST of the ideas they germinated

A female agent with that Lisa-look could be REALLY awesome

I bet it's going to be some kind of vague tarot thing

Shame a lot of the "Story" members from SRK haven't come here. 

We need to see if we can get them

That river gondola level would be amazing

I don't think SF is a priority for Capcom atm.  I'd be surprised if we see SF6 at all for the next couple of years.

I dunno...jettisoning Ono suggests to me that they want to reinvigorate SF just like they've reinvigorated their Devil May Cry, Monster Hunter and Resident Evil brands

Those have been HUGE games for them and I think they want to enjoy that success with SF as well because the SF name recognition in the market place is absolutely massive

I believe this one is a guarantee.

 

----------------------------------------------------

 I wouldn't be surprised to see the 5th character as something like a Tekken Character. Which I don't like also.

I sincerely hope this is the case.

It would be the smart thing to do as a bridge to SF6 which will very likely be an early PS5 release. They need to knock it out of the park with a really cool character.

Oh wait! Blue area of the moon? That hits me in the classic Capcom, classic Marvel and classic Arcade-life feels. DONE

@YagamiFire which background did you go with?

98 Street. So classic.

Feels weird to be here after SRK for so long...but at the same time the only reason I was at SRK for so long was the great people in the story thread so I guess this place also feels just like home. Oh also the street background is 100000000x better
