    I mean her not appearing in the updated artwork with Cammy talking about the loss of a doll is pretty official...

    I think they could've reunited with family, we just dont see it in the artwork. We know Aprile has her brother Maggio, I'm sure they were reunited at some point. But yeah, the doll storylines could go anywhere they wanted it to
     
    The wildest theory I've read is that AKI is actually Marz

    Juli the only doll that has any remaining family? I find it odd how the trauma the dolls should have almost never comes up.

    Hopefully AKI will be the new, INFINITELY more evil and sadistic female of SF.

    Dark Sakura is making her debut in SF6...
    I would be more than fine with Adon and Dudley replacing Sagat and Balrog in this game
    Yes to all of these, please
    I totally agree, she is totally rocking that casual outfit and I'd love to see it as a DLC costume for her
    I dont think Maki really counts. She was basically copy/pasted from CvS2 onto a port of A3 that barely anyone had access to...
    I still want her to make an appearance in an official mainstream SF title, and there is demand for it too

    mykka reacted to Chun-Li_Forever in The Street Fighter VI Story Thread: Shadaloo Died so Luke Could Live!   
    Maximizing Chun-Li's Bond and Mastery Level in WTM was priority number 1 with this game (along with unlocking all of her artwork and story in Arcade Mode).
     
    After giving it some time to process, I've collected my thoughts on each new character info and artwork with each level.
     
     
    A Bond with Chun-Li: 1

     
    Thoughts: I honestly think the only character that can beat Chun-Li in a marksman contest within the SF universe is Falke.  Interestingly enough, Chun-Li said that she never really had to use her sidearm much in her career as a cop and Interpol agent. She found that kicking fools was much more effective way of neutralizing the opposition. And the times when she did have to fire her gun was only as warning shots.
    Chun-Li does enjoy skeet shooting and also mentions how she relates to her kung fu. Mentally, both require intense focus and precision. Which is interesting because as fast as Chun-Li looks flailing around her Lightning Kicks, each kick is delivered with intent and precision.
    I love seeing the characters in settings outside of combat, where we can just see them as real people.
     
     
    A Bond with Chun-Li: 2

     
    Thoughts: Gorgeous... just... absolutely... gorgeous! 
     
    A candlelit performance just for me, under the gazebo of of Hong Hu Lu Chinatown, surrounded by lit paper lanterns, and the mesmerizing, spiritual, and emotional sounds of the strings that bring a piece of traditional Chinese history to the atmosphere. I could not imagine a more captivating date night. And just look at her! Look how beautiful she is! Just... look... I could watch this for hours.
     
    Probably another way Chun-Li honors her roots with her Erhu. But this is def a new fact about Chun we've never learned before, even me. And that's the beauty about this mode and about the lore: discoveries. What makes falling in love with someone every day exciting? You discover something new about them every time. Maybe a new fact about them. Maybe the way their mannerism. Maybe the way they like or dislike things. And it's those discoveries that keep the relationship fresh, fun, and forever... Chun-Li_Forever. (Heh, se what I did there?)
     
     
    A Bond with Chun-Li: 3

     
    Thoughts: Okay this one means a little more to me. And I'll explain why in a bit.
    But essentially it's the end of ASF and all of her SFV Character Story into one image, with the addition of their happy relationship now in the middle. Plus, the outfit Li-Fen wears in the SF6 Prequel comic!!!
     
    I think my favorite part about this is seeing them grow into each other. Li-Fen was an orphan. Whatever family she had was gone. And she was alone. Not to mention her forcing to aid a criminal syndicate with the black moons, and nearly being murdered would traumatize anyone, let alone a young girl like Li-Fen. You can see in her face how scared and alone she looks in the first two. And it just warms my heart to finally seeing her smiling, slowly and surely. It started with something as simple as tying her hair back and giving her some steamed buns. And now she's aiding Chun-Li in her missions and learning kung fu from her Jiejie. It's too precious.
     
    But For CHun-Li as well. You can see in her eyes that she's found something that holds just as dear in her heart just as she was motivated to avenge her father and stop M. Bison. You can see in Chun's eyes that she just wants to give Li-Fen a comfortable life. But opening up to her wasn't easy, given Li-Fen's trauma. Plus, I can imagine that Chun-Li must have some reservations about being a first-time mom/guardian. I can imagine that she wants Li-Fen to like her and welcome her as her new guardian in her own time. I wish they'd shown this in 5, that it took some time for Li-Fen to open up to Chun-Li. They only just mention it in exposition in her character story. But I love Chun's care, and concern in the pic on the right. And now, look how happy the two look! Just... it's too much! So wholesome!
     
    So this bond level artwork means a little more to me because I've been working on a Chun-Li fan comic for years now. And there is a moment/flashback of the very same thing that I wrote up and commissioned an artist to do. So it just feels extra special to hear Chun-Li explain her adopting Li-Fen in WTM.
     

     
     
    A Bond with Chun-Li: 4

     
    Thoughts: MORE CHUN-LI AND LI-FEN BONDING SCENES PLEASE! THIS MALL SCENE IS JUST TOO MUCH SUGARY SWEET GOODNESS IM GETTING DIABETUS!!!!
     
    FIrst, I love seeing characters in other outfits in a casual setting. I LOVE Chun-Li's outfit. I always loved blue on her, and her gold qipao design on the sleeves of her shirt is simple but lovely. And Chun can rock both a dress and pants. I love her! And Li-Fen's outfit in this one is adorbs too. And she has the same bag that can be seen in her SFV CRI Artwork too.


     
    - Li-Fen and Chun-Li eating crepes, Chun's preferred sweet: MY HEART!!!
    - Li-Fen and Chun-Li grocery shopping: Precious! Granted, Li-Fen is most likely doing the shopping and CHun-Li is just pushing thte cart around, since Li-Fen can cook.
    - Li-Fen and Chun-Li shopping for clothes: Oooooh, I was curious when Li-Fen started to transition from pink to yellow. I always knew Li-Fen looked up to Chun-Li and wanted her new outfit to reflect her primary colors. But I like seeing the moment when Li-Fen thinks to herself "Hmmmm, you know, yellow does look good on me".
     
    I love this one so much. I love seeing Chun-Li and Li-Fen just act like a family. It's too precious (i know i've said this word way too much). I love seeing how happy they look. I can only imagine the kind of special day they had with something as simple as a day in the mall. What did they shop for? What did they have for lunch? What does the Metro City mall food court look like. And good god, how much money did Chun-Li spend on this girl?
    Li-Fen did say that she is there to soak up Chun-Li's coolness... and her cash. I know Chun-Li wants to spoil the little girl to no end. But goodness, just wait until she gets older and she starts asking for more expensive things. It's a panda bag, a juicy steak, and a gaming mouse for now... when she's older... dear god.
     
    I love getting to know more about Chun and Li-Fen in these interactions. I know Li-Fen loves pandas, gaming, Shaobings. And I've learned that Chun-Li dabbles in skeetshooting, and plays the erhu.
     
    I want more. I do think that these are probably the most we're gonna get, since it would be an undertaking to get new bonding artwork for each character every year. But I love these moments, and I wish there was more to unlock. Capcom did WTM right with their characters in WTM. I'm not as invested in the CAC story, since I'll always care more about my favorite characters' story than a CAC story. But for us fans of lore and character development, these bonding levels have been the best part of World Tour.

    Ho, man. This is a loaded question, but I'll give it a shot.
     
    Ibuki would be cool, so we can visit her ninja village and maybe learn more about the G project and what that entailed. Alternatively, having Karin in and use the the Kanzuki ninjas as a way to learn more about all the ninja clans in the SF world, like Ibuki's and Geki's from various NPCs that would be around who could have history with them.
     
    Gen, with a Lee NPC in his district could be cool, so we can learn of their exploits together in their youth and Gen's past as an assassin. Here you can include a lot on Yun and Yang as well, especially if you include Lee's restaurant as a location. And we can get some more info on Dorai and his entanglements with Shadaloo that Chun-Li wouldn't be privy too.
     
    Oro, so he can teach the NPC all about the various forms of Ki and get some definitive explanation of all the different martial arts styles, like Mu no Ken, Satsui no Hado and Psycho Power. It would be fun to bribe him with naughty magazines, since he's also a little pervert, harking back to Muten Roshi.
     
    Rose, because we could get a lot of info on her past with Bison and clear up a lot of misinformation from the past. And you can just expand Marisa's district to include more of Italy in it, so you wouldn't have to start from scratch.
     
    Urien, so we can visit all the labs where Twelves are being created and places like that and get a better look inside the Secret Society and more information about their history.
     
    I think this is a good cast of popular characters with real chances to get in, who make sense timeline wise and fit the purpose of WTM of giving us more trivia answers and background info into the world of Street Fighter, rather than advancing the plot in any meaningful way. 
     
    To advance the plot there are many characters that need to get in, like G, but having their mysteries solved in side quests in WTM doesn't seem to be the best way to realize those stories.

    AHAHAHAHA 🤣
    Nostalgia Alt was leaked like 6 months ago if not more, plus being very predictable due most of SF2ers getting nostalgia
    As predicted they realized being trolled only after they got scammed hard into believe SF bent to their bullshit, when was just the surface made to grab 9.something score everywhere in the west
     
    Show once more how retarded western "gaming journalism" became, anybody with minimal knowledge/competence would have seen the whole SF6 being woke as a VERY thin mask lmao, but competence is something they never had, just their politics and mouth full of shit

    Ah yes "The Gamer". The magazine that caused the BBC to have to apologize to JK Rowling twice and made Hogwart's Legacy the most successful game in WB history thanks to their boycott. "Great article", based on their track record, Cammy will get Birthday Suit costume. 😂
