My list with Evil Canadian's template.  

SF2 racism? Those characters get overwhelming amounts of favoritism in every way conceivable from both the fan base and Capcom proper.

I wasn't referring strictly to the EVO numbers, but rather SF5 as a whole from its failures to its redemption at the very end, it was a risky journey as the game tried many "firsts" for the franchise. SF6 looking like the second coming of christ is a direct result of SF5's struggles and victories.

Almost as if the reason sfv couldn't take off was the fact it was missing a specific kind of flight
 

Not sure I would put R. Mika up there just yet, I'd say she's in the same tier as Karin and Makoto. Popular but not iconic yet. They stayed away from the franchise for too long.

I mean most of the female cast is pretty unique. That said, Mika was the first female grappler, and even though they keep adding new ones, she'll always retain that title.
I'm basing the list on general opinions though, I much prefer Karin over Sakura, but its undeniable that Sakura is more iconic to the masses - not counting character usage here.

Watching her moves in slow motion, she might be one of the best animated characters I've seen. 

I think Sakura, R.Mika, Ibuki, and Rose are all just on the edge of the mainstream appeal that Chun, Cammy, and to a lesser extent Juri enjoy. Poison surprisingly also became super popular (likely due to more open fetishization of transsexuals) in recent years.

Sakura, R.Mika, and Ibuki are all mentioned on the sacred Graffiti Wall so I would bet on them appearing in S2/S3.

Damn I remember that false leak with Akira. I also remember that list had Lucia too. Maybe they got inspired?

Sodom better show up in this game as a playable character. The game is in Metro City and it's been too long!

I wanna say this guy was maybe an SRKer...? Either way, dude translated thoughts of SF5/6 producers on the characters:
 
 
Thread is full of stuff.

SNK says hi

Not fan of forced sterilization. 😟

To be fair Cammy has been getting bodied pretty hard in media and canon since SF4. Remember her encounter with CViper?

lmao 

Not even the only wink at that design, they also share forearm protection on only one arm

Choker is back
