    Psychoblue got a reaction from Shakunetsu in The SF6 Thread: Mena Won Evo Japan!   
    I'm right now going through everyone's trials and story mode before I do the deep dive. My first local monthly is tomorrow and I'll be on stream duty. If anyone here wants to tune in, it starts at 1 PM EST at psychoblue9 on twitch
     
    In the interim I'd appreciate the RT.

    I'll catch up on the SF6 comic later. I finally got my hands on the Sagat graphic novel.
     
    I will admit I was skeptical on what the quality was going to be given how Udon is typically WAY more of a miss than a hit the last decade and change, but WOW this book was stellar! Apart from clearly paying more attention to providing a narrative that fit Sagat's background, they did  their homework when it came to Thailand's political situation and used that to provide an avenue to how Sagat became Bison's right hand man, even having the book double as a Shadaloo origin story detailing Bison's early years as a weapons merchant and using his psycho power to free Sagat from prison (SF2V homage) and even influence him subtlely to explain why Sagat has no pupils?
     
    The way they present Nuakhan was also impressive, making him the Akuma to Sagat's Ryu as a despotic village tyrant  that later became a pawn of the corrupt Thai regime which Shadaloo helped bring down and thus inspire the loyalty of the people when making Thailand their base of operations. The pre-SF1 tournament featuring famous old people/mentors/teachers like Zeku and Arroyo was also fun, and I especially liked how they presented Sheng Long as a braggart who takes credit for other people's accomplishments like Ace from The Quick & the Dead.
     
    Overall a MUCH better outing for Udon than their Unlimited series and the Akuma origins. 8/10!

    Seeing all the praise for Modern and Dynamic controls as it relates to accessibility and comparing it to when Ono first showed off Easy and Super Easy Input Gem… it definitely has me feeling a way.

    So you're saying her mother was pregnant at 10? No wonder her daughter turned out like that.

    Bison was doing them a favor.

    As I said before, this man was tracking to down the mother of his child. He wasn't after Bison for the LULs. You can't be 7'6", have some 5'11 dude kidnap your wife, and look your little in girl the face without her knowing you moved heaven & earth to get her mommy back.

    I got into watching 70s wresting during the quarantine and this was who stood out the most for me. Other than being that one bodybuilder in an era there weren’t many and how active his body language was when selling for the babyface, his promos were unlike anything that was being done from the others in that era apart from Dusty who allegedly got it from him. As someone else  put it, his promos were like hearing the original version of a song that’s been sampled and remade over and over.

    Capcom for the first time in a long time gives us quality Street Fighter comic writing and artwork and of course this is what people wanna focus in on.

    These type of comics tend to be produce when the people involved get an early drift of the story. These types of inconsistencies are common with movie novelizations for the same reason. I'm convinced this guy is an idiot.

    It's almost as if JP himself used his Psycho Power and scheming to brainwash the general population of fans. This is beyond what Bison could ever dream of.

    It's Shitaku. They just bitched about Nintendo black listing them, after they advocated pirating Metroid Dread at launch, and followed up by posting an article with all the Tears of the Kingdom leaks. Fuck Shitaku and I hope they go belly up soon.
