Sagat

Voiced by:Shigezō Sasaoka(SFII: The Animated Movie),Shin-ichiro Miki(Real Battle on Film,SFAseries,Capcom vs. SNKseries),Banjō Ginga(SFII V), Sakai Albright (SFEXseries), Kōji Suizu (SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos), Daisuke Endō (SFIV–present) (Japanese);Peter Spellos(SFII: The Animated Movie,SFII VAnimaze) (English)

Sagat first appears as themain antagonistof the originalStreet Fighter.After being defeated, Sagat tells the player character that he is the "strongest Street Fighter in the world". His next appearance was inStreet Fighter II: The World Warrior,where he appears as one of the four Grand Masters. He appears in this game with multiple scars, including a large diagonal one across his chest that he received from Ryu as a result of his loss in the first game. This scar reminds Sagat of the grudge he harbors against Ryu after the loss in the first tournament.Like the other bosses, he became a playable character in the subsequent revisions of the game beginning withStreet Fighter II': Champion Edition.

Sagat appears in the prequel seriesStreet Fighter Alpha.In addition to fleshing out his rivalry with Ryu, a rivalry with his former apprentice Adon is introduced there as well, along with new characterDan Hibiki,whose father, Go, was killed by Sagat in a fight years before. It was also revealed that Sagat lost his right eye during that fight. TheAlphaseries also shows Sagat joining M. Bison's criminal organization Shadaloo, only to leave inStreet Fighter Alpha 3after he discovers that Bison had wanted to experiment his Psycho Power against Ryu, allowing him to realize the pettiness of his vendetta against Ryu. Sagat is an unlockable character inStreet Fighter EX3,where his story has his resentment for Ryu fading.

Sagat returns inStreet Fighter IVas a playable character with the animosity in his feud with Ryu no longer present and even referring to him in his ending as a "friend". In Street Fighter V, Sagat is featured as part of the third season of downloadable content. During his story, he is briefly tempted by Satsui no Hadō but overcomes it, coming to understand Ryu's struggles in the process.

Sagat also appears in crossover games such asCapcom vs. SNK 2andStreet Fighter X Tekken,in which he is paired up withDhalsimand in other titles, including mobile puzzle gameStreet Fighter: Puzzle Spirits,where he is asuper-deformedcharacter.

Basim Usmani ofDualshockersdescribed him as the most believable villain of the series, a celebrated over 7 ft tall kickboxer that used very few words. They also praised his design compared to other fighters in the series, stating "He is gigantic, arrogant, and muscular in a way that is only slightly exaggerated, [...] He lives to fight and usually appears to be having a good time."IGN's D. F. Smith noted that while much of his design didn't stand out, "Throw in that face, though, and everything changes," adding that elements such as his scar and eye patch "come together to make a guy who means business." Smith further noted his importance as one of the few characters from the originalStreet Fighterto appear in later installments of the series, stating that while he wasn't as popular as Ryu, "he's certainly pulled together a following of his own."Gavin Jasper ofDen of Geekdescribed him as "a bit of an antihero", whose personality is reflected in how he fights, comparing him to Ryu but describing him as "far more blunt, unforgiving, and controlling". He further praised his story for being one of redemption, and how he eventually comes to see the world the same way his rival Ryu does.

Though Capcom has not stated the inspirations for Sagat's character,IGNnoted a close resemblance to mangaKarate Baka Ichidai's antagonist Reiba.Thai websiteSanookadditionally suggested the character's name was likely borrowed from that of Muay Thai fighterSagat Petchyindee,who made several fighting appearances in Japan in the 1980s.

Balrog

Voiced by:Daisuke Gōri(SFIIdrama CDs),Joji Nakata(SFII: The Animated Movie),Tomomichi Nishimura(SFII V),Koichi Yamadera(SFA3,Capcom vs. SNKseries),Sōnosuke Nagashiro(SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos), Satoshi Tsuruoka (SFIV,SFXTK,SFV) (Japanese);Paul Dobson(SFanimated series),Joe Romersa(SFII: The Animated Movie,SFII VAnimaze dub), Werner Richmond (SFII VADV dub), Bob Carter (SFIV–present) (English)

Balrog appears inStreet Fighter IIas one of the opponents, and would become a playable character in subsequent revisions of the game, beginning withStreet Fighter II: Champion Edition.He is characterized as a bully or a ruffian who is a tough, aggressive and belligerent street-raised boxer seeking the "American Dream"and one of the" Four Devas "(Shitennou,"Four Heavenly Kings") of Shadaloo. Balrog is a 6 ft 5 in tallAfrican-Americanprofessionalboxerwearing blue trunks with white trim and a torn white shirt under a blue tank top, as well as red boxing gloves and boxing shoes. In Japan, he is named M. Bison, with the letter standing for "Mike", after boxerMike Tyson.When the developers ofStreet Fighter IIwere working on the overseas versions, they changed the names of three of theboss charactersfor the English localization, including M. Bison, as they feared naming him "Mike Bison" could cause legal issues.Years later, Mike Tyson revealed that he was unaware of the character, but was honored by the homage.The story ofStreet Fighter 6acknowledged this change within the context of its narrative, claiming that all three names were aliases that Shadaloo's leadership operated under to protect their true identities.

His next major appearance was inStreet Fighter Alpha 3,where he was a sub-boss in the arcade version who faced certain characters and became playable after certain requirements were met, but was also playable via a secret code. He was made into a regular playable character in the arcade update and subsequent home versions and given his own in-game plot, home stage, and endings. This incarnation of Balrog also appears inCapcom vs. SNKandCapcom vs. SNK 2.He later appears in otherStreet Fightergames, such asStreet Fighter IV,Street Fighter X Tekken,andStreet Fighter V.Balrog appears in the filmStreet Fighter II: The Animated Movie,where he serves in a similar capacity to his role in the video game.

Cody

Voiced by:Nobutoshi Canna(Final Fight CD),Koichi Yamadera(SFA3),Nobuyuki Hiyama(SFA3 Drama Album),Daisuke Kishio(SSFIV,SFXTK,SFV) (Japanese); Michael T. Coleman (SSFIV,SFXT,SFV) (English)

Cody Travers(コーディー・トラバース,Kōdī Torabāsu)first appears as the lead character of the 1989 beat-em-upFinal Fight,where he is one of the three playable characters in the game. In the game, he is a martial artist whose girlfriend Jessica has been kidnapped by the Mad Gear Gang. He teams up with his friend,Guy,and Jessica's father,Mike Haggar.

After the events ofFinal Fight,Cody is mentioned in theSNESsequel,Final Fight 2,where he is shown in the opening flashback to be the one delivering the finishing blow to the Mad Gear gang's leader, Belger, from the first game, but Cody himself does not appear in the second game at all. His absence from the second game was given an in-story explanation that he was taking a vacation with Jessica during the time ofFinal Fight 2.

Cody makes a cameo appearance in Guy'sFinal Fight-themed home stage inStreet Fighter Alpha 2,alongside his girlfriend, Jessica. The couple makes a similar cameo appearance inMarvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter,in which they're among the spectators watching the fight at the background of the "Mall Madness" stage.

His next major appearance was in 1998'sStreet Fighter Alpha 3.In game, Cody had ended his relationship with Jessica (who has since left Metro City to study abroad in Europe) and became a convicted felon, having been thrown into jail after becoming a vigilante. Bored with his life, Cody had wandered the streets looking for any riffraff he could find, and subsequently beat them into submission until he was finally caught and jailed. Instead of his jeans and white T-shirt fromFinal Fight,Cody's wardrobe now consists of a blue-and-white striped prison uniform with handcuffs on his wrists (which he is actually able to remove when he taunts his opponent, but fights wearing them anyway) and stubble on his face. His fighting style in the game is modeled after his abilities fromFinal Fight.During his storyline, Cody is challenged by Birdie and ends up joining forces with his friend and former ally, Guy, in his fight against M. Bison.

Cody would appear in two subsequentFinal Fightgames following his appearance inAlpha 3.Final Fight Revenge,a 3D fighting game based onFinal Fightalso released in 1998, features Cody from within his depiction in the originalFinal Fight.In his character's ending, he gets arrested by police officerEdi E.after being framed by the surviving members of Mad Gear and he is shown inPoison's ending wearing the same jailbird outfit he wears inStreet Fighter Alpha 3.In secondFinal Fightspinoff, 2006'sFinal Fight: Streetwise,features Codyas the elder brother and mentor of the new main character, Kyle. Cody was willingly incarcerated for an unspecified crime committed by Guy, causing a fallout between the two former friends. Upon getting out of prison, Cody's constant fighting had taken its toll upon his own knees, in which he had developedarthritisfrom within them and that Cody himself was forced to retire from mainstream fighting, becoming a cornerman for Kyle during his run from within Metro City's underground pit fighting circuit. During the events ofFinal Fight Streetwise,Kyle learns that Cody had been taking a new street drug known as "GLOW", which is said to give the user immense strength and power, but turns them violent and dangerous at the same time. Eventually, Cody is kidnapped by Father Bella (who is later revealed to be the younger brother of Belger) and is used as a brainwashed guinea pig by Bella, who seeks revenge against him for the death of his brother. In the end, Cody regains his senses and helps Kyle defeat Bella. Few days later, the effect of the GLOW cures Cody from arthritis when returning to his former human-self.

Cody returned inSuper Street Fighter IV,breaking out of prison to try to cure his boredom. His rival is Guy, who tries to convince him to team with him to fight Seth. After defeating Seth, Cody runs into Guy once again and after deflecting Guy's praise, leaves to return to his cell where he claims he belongs. Cody is also featured as aDLCcharacter inStreet Fighter X Tekken,with Guy as his official tag partner.

Cody returned as a playable character inStreet Fighter V.Now free from prison and no longer forced to wear the uniform and handcuffs, Cody succeeds Mike Haggar as the new Mayor of Metro City. Though he is bored with the bureaucracy of the position and misses fighting the city's gangs, he secretly enjoys his new life. Under Cody's direction, as ofStreet Fighter 6World Tour, Metro City becomes mostly lively.

An episode of the AmericanStreet Fighteranimated series titled "Final Fight" adapts the plot of the original 1989 beat-em-up game, with Cody portrayed as a slow-witted, short-tempered character with a southern accent. In the episode, Cody and Guy, after learning that Cody's girlfriend and Haggar's daughter Jessica is kidnapped by the Mad Gear gang, go off to fight them on their own accord, whileRyuandKenare hired by Haggar to infiltrate the gang in order to save his daughter. Cody knocks Belger from the top window of his penthouse (although Belger is not killed), and rescues Jessica. He also appears in some of theStreet Fightercomics byUDON.InResident Evil Zero,Billy Coen can have Cody's prison outfit as an extra costume as a DLC. Professional wrestlerKenny Omegaportrayed Cody for a live actionStreet Fighter Vtrailer.

Guy

Voiced by:Yūsuke Numata(Final Fight CD),Tetsuya Iwanaga(SFAseries,FFR,Capcom Fighting Evolution,Namco × Capcom),Tsuguo Mogami(SSFIV,SFXTK) (Japanese);Jason C. Miller(SSFIV,SFXTK) (English)

Guy is one of three playable characters in the original arcade version ofFinal Fight,released for thearcadesbyCapcomin 1989. In the backstory of the originalFinal Fight,Guy is established to be the 39th successor of the Bushin-style Ninpo. He aides his friendCodyas well as Metro City MayorMike Haggarin rescuing Jessica, who is Haggar's daughter and Cody's girlfriend, from the Mad Gear gang.

Due to space constraint, Guy was initially omitted from theSNESport of the game, with Cody and Haggar being the only playable characters in that version. Capcom later produced a second SNES version titledFinal Fight Guy,which replaced Cody's character with that of Guy (who is the only character featured in the game's cover art). Later versions of the game such asFinal Fight CDforSega CDandFinal Fight Onefor theGame Boy Advancewould include all three characters. Capcom also produced anNESgame titledMighty Final Fight,a parody of the originalFinal Fightwhich features all three characters.

Capcom later releasedFinal Fight 2in 1993, a sequel created specifically for the SNES. In this installment, Guy'ssensei,Genryusai and his daughter Rena (Guy's fiancée), are kidnapped by the new incarnation of Mad Gear. In the game's story, Guy is off on a training mission and is unable to rescue his fiancée and master. Instead, the game features Guy's sister-in-law,Maki Genryusai,who has also been trained in the same fighting style, and Carlos Miyamoto, a South American swordsman. Guy only makes an appearance in the end of the game, although the game does feature power-up icons shaped after his character.

InFinal Fight 3,released in 1995, Guy finally returns toMetro Cityand teams up with Haggar to rid Metro City of the Skull Cross gang, the latest gang to try to pick up where Mad Gear had left off. They are joined by Metro City SCU officer Lucia Morgan and former gang member who double crossed the gang, Dean (who wanted revenge when Skull Cross murdered his family). The four succeed, and are able to rid Metro City of the criminals. Metro City is left in shambles, but Guy does not seem to care, and leaves that to Haggar.

In 1998, Guy was featured inFinal Fight Revenge,the American-produced fighting game for the arcades andSega Saturn.In 2006, the second American-producedFinal Fightsequel,Final Fight: Streetwise,a reimagined Guy's character as a Japanese crime lord in the Japan Town district of Metro City.

When Capcom produced the originalStreet Fighter Alphain 1995, Guy would be one of twoFinal Fightcharacters to be included in the game along with the game's second stage bossSodom.He was selected for inclusion because of his high popularity at the time.Guy and Sodom would be joined byRolentoin 1996'sStreet Fighter Alpha 2and by Cody in 1998'sStreet Fighter Alpha 3,followed by Maki's appearance in the portable versions ofAlpha 3.In theAlphagames, Guy's Bushin predecessor is revealed to be a man named Zeku, who would appear in Guy's ending inStreet Fighter Alpha 2to test Guy for his successor-ship. Zeku's presence in the game contradictsFinal Fight 2,which identifies Genryusai as Guy's sensei, as designers of theAlphagames did not take into account the SNESFinal Fightsequels when developing the games. Zeku was mentioned once again in Guy's bio inStreet Fighter Alpha 3.

InStreet Fighter IV,Guy was one of the new characters added inSuper Street Fighter IV.In his ending, he is shown rescuing an unconsciousRosefrom Bison. In Rose's ending it is hinted that he might be the only one powerful enough to stop Bison (though inStreet Fighter V,Bison is destroyed once and for all by Ryu), and in Cody's ending Guy is shown trying to persuade him to come back on the right side of the law. Guy is also the one who threw thekunaiinFei Long's ending in the originalStreet Fighter IV,sinceIbukihas no involvement with S.I.N.

Guy is as a playable character inCapcom Fighting Jam,a crossover fighting game also featuring characters fromDarkstalkersandRed Earth.Guy is a playable character in the Japan-only tactical role-playing gameNamco × Capcom,in which he is paired with Sho (Ginzu) fromCaptain Commandoas a single unit, the in-game story depicting Sho as his future Bushin-ryu successor. He also appears as a playable character via DLC (actually contained on the game disc) in theTekkenandStreet Fighterseries' crossover fighting gameStreet Fighter X Tekken,in which alsoTekken'sRavencan be dressed in Guy's costume.

Guy appears in the AmericanStreet Fighteranimated series in an episode titled "Final Fight", which adapts the plot of its namesake. In this episode, Guy and Cody befriend Ryu andKen,who aid them in fighting the Mad Gear Gang to save Jessica. He also makes an appearance inStreet Fighter Alpha: The Animationas one of the warriors who have agreed to accompany Ryu, Ken andChun-Lito Professor Sadler's base and rescue Shun, Ryu's alleged brother. As the fighters battle each other outside Sadler's base to demonstrate their skills, Guy fights Dhalsim. When Sadler's true intentions are revealed, Guy and the other fighters are freed by Ken and Chun-Li.

Guy makes an appearance inUDON'sStreet Fighter II Turbocomic, in which he was given an invitation to fight in the Japanese branch of the Street Fighter Tournament byM. Bison.Dan tries to take Guy's invitation from him by force, yet is quickly defeated. At night, Dan breaks into Guy's house and steals his invitation; Guy witnesses the whole event, but decides to give Dan a chance, as he was not planning on joining the competition in the first place. Guy also appears in the manga adaptation ofStreet Fighter Alphaby Masahiko Nakahira, where he is depicted as a well-knownvigilanteninja credited with bringing an end to several criminal organisations. Guy disguised himself as a member of Shadaloo to face M. Bison, but he is forced to reveal his identity whenVegatries to kill both Adon and a possessedRyu.After making quick work of Vega, Guy kicks several oil drums at Ryu (a nod to theFinal Fightseries), then proceeds to fight Ryu. Due to Guy's superior speed and training to fight multiple enemies at once, Guy is able to block every attack from Ryu'sShun Goku Satsuand defeat him. He is last seen watching over the battle between Ryu and Sagat.

Guy's character was created and originally designed byAkira "Akiman" Yasuda,who felt that it was a Capcom company tradition to often feature a ninja character, even in the Western-themed gameGun.Smoke.His work-in-progress name was simply "Ninja",inspired by the actorSho Kosugiwho often played ninja characters during the 1980s. According to Capcom's Tatsuya Minami, Guy was included inStreet Fighterbecause he was extremely popular and easy to translate to the one-on-one fighting genre.

Ingrid

Voiced by:Masako Jō

Ingrid(イングリッド,Inguriddo)was slated to appear in the canceledCapcom Fighting All-Starsarcade game using the nickname "Eternal Goddess", but her animations were completely redrawn in 2D, and she was introduced as a playable character inCapcom Fighting Jamfor the arcades,XboxandPlayStation 2.She entered theStreet Fighteruniverse inStreet Fighter Alpha 3 MAXfor the PSP. Little is known about her, althoughAlpha 3 MAXpresents some possibilities about her true origins. Her source of power is apparently derived fromPsycho Power,yet is not purely evil like that ofM. Bison;though seemingly quite similar to Rose's Soul Power. Ingrid claims that she is the true bearer of what is called "Psycho Power", telling M. Bison that the Psycho Power is "her power" and that he has stolen it. Her power is so intense that if given the chance, she can actually break Ryu's madness if he ever succumbs to the Satsui no Hado.How M. Bison came into possession of the item is never explained, though it bears a resemblance to the crests on her head. When M. Bison is eventually defeated, she comments that a regular human being like him couldn't possibly control such power and takes the whole Psycho Drive with her as she leaves. Ingrid also possesses psychic abilities similar to Rose's. She addresses both Ryu and Rose by name, despite the two of them never revealing their names to her. Rose also cannot look into Ingrid's future, as she did with other Street Fighters.Ingrid's arcade ending reveals that she has the power of time travel, sending herself to the year 201X where she notices that Ryu "is up to something interesting". Ingrid'sStreet Fighter Vcharacter profile disregards her story fromStreet Fighter Alpha 3 MAX,amending her backstory to be more in line with how she was originally going to be portrayed inCapcom Fighting All-Stars.Ingrid also plays a role in the background story ofStreet Fighter X Tekken.She appears as a solo unit inProject X Zone 2.In addition, her likeness is featured as a downloadable alternate costume for Karin inStreet Fighter V.

On Capcom's officialStreet Fighter Character Poll,Ingrid ranked 4th most popular character in the Japanese rankings.In another official poll conducted byBandai Namco,Ingrid was the third most requestedStreet Fightercharacter to be added to the roster ofTekken X Street Fighter,having received 15.38% of the votes.Ingrid also placed tenth byHeavy.comas one of 10 Characters they wanted to see inUltra Street Fighter IV.In a 2014 poll ran by Japanese gaming magazineFamitsu,Ingrid was ranked as one of the top three most requested characters to be added toUltra Street Fighter IV.

According to Matt Moylan, Director of Publishing forUDON Entertainment,Ingrid can't be used in Street Fighter comics without special permission as Capcom has seemingly reclassified her as a guest character.Despite this Ingrid was still included as a choice in theWho's Your Top Tier Street Fightercharacter poll withinStreet Fighter 6'sBattle Hub in June 2024 which featured the entire roster of fighters from the mainline Street Fighter series in addition to Captain Sawada.

Juli(ユーリ,Yūri)and Juni(ユーニ,Yūni)make their first appearance in the arcade version ofStreet Fighter Alpha 3as a pair of sub-bosses. Before the final battle against M. Bison in thesingle-player mode,the player faces them simultaneously in a two-on-one fight similar to the Dramatic Battle match. The two characters can be unlocked in the arcade version, but they have no storyline in the actual game, sharing their ending with M. Bison. They are similar to Cammy in character design, but have their own special moves and super combos. Juli and Juni are the only characters inAlpha 3to have combined special moves and super combos; these are used exclusively when both characters fight as a pair during the Dramatic Battle mode.Juli and Juni are members of a special unit within Shadaloo called the "Dolls", or Bison Elite Guard(ベガ thân vệ đội,Bega Shin'eitai),which is composed of twelve young women brainwashed to serve as Bison's personal assassins. The twelve members of the Dolls are named after the months of theGregorian calendarin various languages, Juli and Juni beingGermanfor July and June.Juli and Juni were given their own individual storyline and ending when they became part of the regular character roster in the console versions ofAlpha 3,in which Juli is assigned to track down Cammy and Juni to track down Ryu. Juli's backstory is further developed in the console versions ofAlpha 3with the addition ofT. Hawkto the cast. In T. Hawk's single-player storyline, Juli is revealed to be Julia, his girlfriend who used to live in his home village until she was kidnapped and brainwashed by Shadaloo.

Karin Kanzuki

Voiced by:Miho Yamada(SFA3,Namco × Capcom),Aya Endō(SFV) (Japanese);Lauren Landa(SFV) (English)

Karin Kanzuki originally appears as Sakura's schoolmate in Masahiko Nakahira'sStreet Fighter: Sakura Ganbaru!manga, published between 1996 and 1998.Karin's rivalry with Sakura is analogous to the relationship between Ken and Ryu, the difference being her personality is "colder and more self-centered".Her last name is a tribute toMasaomi Kanzaki,a manga artist that worked onStreet Fighter IIrelated manga in the early 1990s.Karin's first video game appearance was originally meant to beMarvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter,but was ultimately cut.She was later integrated into theStreet Fightervideo game series as a playable character inStreet Fighter Alpha 3.The developmental team forStreet Fighter Alpha 3introduced Karin to provide a contrast toR. Mika,a character designed to be "tricky and technical".For her original appearance inStreet Fighter Alpha 3,Karin, like that of her rival Sakura, wears a sailor fuku with a predominantly red color scheme and a blue ribbon. Her hair is styled into long, oversized ringlets in a European Victorian-era fashion.Her fighting style isKanzuki-ryū kakutōjutsu,a mixed martial arts style she claims to have created herself.

Within series lore, Karin is concepted as the only daughter of anultra-richcorporate family, who behaves like a stereotypical elitist rich girl with an obnoxious laugh.She is attended to by at least two employees who serve as her butlers. Her original motivation was to "be the winner of everything", and resorts to travel the world to track down and defeat Sakura to redress a prior loss at her hands. After winning her rematch with Sakura, however, Karin comes to realize that fighting to earn her victories is ultimately more important than the victories themselves,to the point that she later amends the family motto to "[one] must get what [they] want by [their] own effort".Later in theSakura Ganbaru!series, Karin buys most of the shares of the family-owned corporation Kanzuki Zaibatsu and ousts her father as its leader. In spite of this, he muses to himself that she has excellent potential, although he originally desired a son.

Karin appears as a playable character in the crossover gameNamco x Capcom,where she is paired with Sakura. She is also playable inCapcom Fighting Evolution.

Karin is a playable character inStreet Fighter V,and retains the same mannerisms and personality quirks observed in her previous appearances.She is redesigned with full tight leggings and a martial coat with frilly long sleeves.InV,Karin plays a large role as the one who coordinates the efforts of her anti-Shadaloo faction in raiding M. Bison's main base, leading to his final defeat.

Maki

Voiced by:Miki Nagasawa

Maki Genryusai(Nguyên liễu trai chân kỷ,Genryūsai Maki)first appears inFinal Fight 2.She and her elder sister, Rena were old friends of Guy, who then becomes her sister's fiancé and her future brother in-law. Like Guy, Maki was also taught by her father's successor, Zeku.

The plot ofFinal Fight 2revolves around the kidnapping of Rena and their father by the newly revived Mad Gear gang during Guy's absent. Maki enlists the help ofMike Haggarand his friend Carlos Miyamoto to rescue them.Maki appears in theStreet Fighter Alpha 2tie-in mangaSakura Ganbaru!,where she is one ofSakura Kasugano's competitors in a tournament sponsored by the Kanzuki family.

Maki has made her fighting game debut inCapcom vs. SNK 2: Mark of the Millennium 2001.Maki's ending inCapcom vs. SNK 2implies that she is searching forGuyto challenge him for the Bushin style's succession following her father's death.Maki's storyline in the PSP version ofAlpha 3plays upon this premise and has Maki fighting Guy as her penultimate opponent in the single-player mode, beforeM. Bison;in a nod to her appearance inSakura Ganbaru!,Maki also confronts Sakura as her fifth opponent.

Maki also appears in theSNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters Clashvideo game series bySNK Playmoreand in theStreet Fightercomic series byUDON,and makes cameos in the video gamesFinal Fight Revenge(in Damnd's ending) andCapcom Fighting Evolution,and in the AmericanStreet Fightercartoon series (in the episode "Final Fight" ). A four-inch figurine of Maki was released only in Japan as part of a three-figureCapcom vs. SNK 2set byCapcom,based onKinu Nishimura's artwork for this game;Street Fighter Zero 3figures of Maki were also released by other companies in 2002 and 2011.

Maki has been generally very well received by video game journalists. According toHyperreview ofFinal Fight 2,"Capcom getPCpoints for including a female character. Too often the girls are just the helpless kidnap victim, but Maki is as hard and fast as the blokes, and has some very damaging kicks in her repertoire. "Video Games & Computer Entertainmentin their own review added "The leggy, red-haired Maki is bound to draw a lot of attention from fighting fans."GamePowerin turn praised her inclusion, stating "Maki promises to break hearts (like mine) and share the stage withChun-Li."Jeremy Parish forUSGamerdescribed her as "Capcom's answer toThe King of Fighters'Mai Shiranui,a statementPasteechoed by describing her as "a more modest version" that "proves the lady ninja motif doesn't have to lead to bad character design."Discussing the "underused" characters ofStreet Fighter,Anime News Network's Todd Ciolek opined "Maki could've been huge if CAPCOM had stuck her inSuper Street Fighter IIinstead of aFinal Fightsequel. "

The character was also well received in her appearances beyondFinal Fight 2.Den of Geekcomplained that all her appearances were defined by trying to show she wasn't Guy, and unlike other "obsessed characters, like Sakura and Rufus, Maki didn't have much to hang on to," further adding that they'd like to see her return but also for Capcom give her different direction.Australian magazineCubeadded in regards to her appearance inStreet Fighter Alpha 3that "She may look cute but she can mix it up with the toughest of fighters."

Nash

Charlie Nash(チャーリー・ナッシュ,Chārī Nasshu)is a soldier and former comrade in arms of Guile. Originally, prior toStreet Fighter V,the character was known simply as Nash(ナッシュ,Nasshu)in Japan and as Charlie in overseas versions. The name change was done following a suggestion by a staff member in Capcom's U.S. subsidiary who felt that "Nash" was not natural sounding enough for American players to relate to.The two names would later be combined in certain licensedStreet Fightermedia—particularlyUdon's comic book series—to form the full name "Charlie Nash", which was officially adopted by the games starting withStreet Fighter IV.As a result,Street Fighter Vwas the first game to abandon the usual practice of changing the character's name to "Charlie" in overseas versions, referring to him primarily as "Nash" in every region.

Nash is first mentioned byGuile,where his motive for entering the tournament is to confront the tournament's hostM. Bisonfor an incident inCambodiathat involved him, Bison, and Charlie Nash.Subsequent sequels in the series fleshed out his backstory, where he is the military comrade and close friend of Guile, who is looking to avenge the death of his friend who was killed by Bison sometime before the events of the game.

Nash first appears as a playable character inStreet Fighter Alpha,where he is a first lieutenant in the United States Air Force,assigned to track down Bison and uncover corruption within the American military. Charlie's ending sequence in the originalAlpha,as well as inStreet Fighter Alpha 2,both end with him being killed after defeating Bison: inAlpha,Bison attacks him from behind when he calls for backup and inAlpha 2,a corrupt officer piloting his intended backup helicopter shoots him for Bison and sends him falling down a waterfall.Street Fighter Alpha 3was initially the sole exception to this convention, which actually has Charlie surviving in his ending. His death scene inAlpha 2,however, is treated byStreet Fighter Vas canon, making Charlie's appearance inAlpha 3semi-canonical.

Despite Nash's apparent death,Street Fighter IVwould provide hints of his survival in the game's storyline. Charlie returns as a playable fighter inStreet Fighter V,which reveals that he underwent reconstructive surgery after he was mortally wounded by M. Bison, leaving him with stitches across his body and head with gray, dead-like patches of skin, as well as a green jewel on his forehead. It is actually the work of Illuminati, and his revival project was headed byKolin(under a guise asHelen), using the body sample Twelve's prototype version, Eleven, created by Urien. After being revived, Nash's lifespan is limited, as Nash must save his energy to confront Bison. Nash sacrifices his life on attempting a suicide mission by absorbing Bison's powers as much as he can, weakening Bison long enough for Ryu to finish Bison.

Charlie also appears as a playable fighter inX-Men vs. Street FighterandMarvel vs. Capcom 2,as well as in the unreleasedCapcom Fighting All-Stars.Besides fighting game appearances, Charlie is a playable character in theshoot 'em upgameCannon Spike.An alternate version of Charlie named Shadow appears as a hidden character in the crossover gameMarvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter.Shadow'sspriteis the same as Charlie's, but with almost his entire body blacked out and a white eye shining behind his glasses. He has all of Charlie's moves. Shadow also appears inMarvel vs. Capcomas a side character that can assist the player in combat.

InSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate,Nash appears as a spirit in the adventure mode.

In the 1994 film adaptationStreet Fighter,Charlie is amalgamated with the character ofBlankato form the characterCarlos "Charlie" Blanka,a Brazilian friend of Guile and a soldier in his unit, who is taken prisoner in Bison's Shadaloo compound. When Bison discovers the friendship between Charlie and Guile, he sends Charlie to be brainwashed and mutated by Dr.Dhalsimto become the green-skinned, red-haired killing machine known simply as Blanka.

Charlie Nash is played byChris KleininStreet Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li,where he is portrayed as a member of Interpol.

Nash is a central character in the miniseriesStreet Fighter: Resurrectionportrayed byAlain Moussi.

Though he does not physically appear in the film, Charlie is alluded to several times inStreet Fighter II: The Animated Movie.Dialogue reveals that prior to the film's events, he was killed by Bison, and now serves as Guile's primary motive for personal revenge against the warlord. Though sympathetic towards Guile for losing Charlie,Chun-Lisuccessfully persuades Guile to put his personal vendetta aside and help Interpol fight Shadaloo. Guile later attempts to fight Bison, who openly mocks Charlie to provoke him before defeating him but sparing him as an insult.

In the 1995 anime television seriesStreet Fighter II V,Nash first appears in episode 19, when he and Guile are hired by Ken's father to rescue him from Bison. Nash is later killed off in episode 26 after Bison strangles him to death. He retains the name "Nash" for the English dub, although Guile calls him "Charlie" just before his death in episode 26, and the narrator refers to him as "Charlie Nash". As the series was produced whileStreet Fighter Alphawas still in its earliest development stages, Charlie bears no resemblance to his video game counterpart, instead sporting slicked brown hair and a beard, vaguely similar to actorJean Reno.

The AmericanStreet Fighteranimated series, which aired from 1995 to 1997, adapts Blanka's origin from the 1994 film; the series also combines Charlie and Blanka into one character. Charlie's hair color and skin tone was also changed to suit the character's different ethnicity in the show. In "Eye of the Beholder".

In Masaomi Kanzaki'smanga adaptationofStreet Fighter II,Guile is directly responsible for Charlie's death. Years before the events of the manga, Bison uses Charlie and other members of Guile's unit as unknowing test subjects for a mind-controlling substance. Charlie went insane during a mission and began attacking unarmed villagers, causing Guile to kill him. Charlie is only shown in one panel in the manga, which depicts him as a silhouette with an insane smile.

In the AmericanStreet Fightercomic book series, Charlie's Japanese name is made into his surname, giving him the full name of Charlie Nash. The comic goes on to include that it was in fact Charlie who taught Guile how to use the "Sonic Boom" technique, and indeed how to fight. Udon would also include Shadow as part of the comic's storyline: Bison captures Charlie, turns him into Shadow, using him as an agent. He tries to have Shadow kill Guile and Chun Li in Japan, but Charlie regains his memory in the fight and runs off. He later attempts to rejoin his friends, but is gunned down by Bison's helicopter. With the last of his strength, Charlie sacrifices himself by using hisSomersault Justiceto destroy the cliff on which they were fighting, sending both Bison and himself plunging into the sea. He also has a new comic calledStreet Fighter V: The Life and Deaths of Charlie Nashthat explains what happened to him prior toStreet Fighter Vand why he looks the way he does.

Gavin Jasper ofDen of Geekdescribed him as simply cooler than Guile in every way, adding praise for his appearance inStreet Fighter V,adding "His story in the latest game is tragic, but it's also a good piece of closure, even if we didn't get enough Guile/Charlie interaction."

Rolento made his debut appearance as the fourth stage'sbossin the originalFinal Fight.He is a former member of the fictional Red Beret special forces unit and serves as the supervisor of the Mad Gear gang's weapons plant. When defeated, instead of just fading away while lying on the ground like most enemies in the game, he stands up and blows himself up with his own grenades, fading away completely scorched. Rolento and his "Industrial Area" stage were not included in theSuper Nintendo Entertainment Systemport ofFinal Fight,nor in its re-releaseFinal Fight Guy,but were included in other ports of the game, such as theSega CDandGame Boy Advanceversions (if the player confronts Rolento as "Alpha Cody"in the GBA version, Cody will joke about Rolento's omission in the SNES version).

Rose first appears inStreet Fighter Alpha,characterized as a mystic fortune teller fromGenoa,Italy, who searches the world forM. Bisonto eradicate his evil power with her unique ability, known as Soul Power. At the end of the game, Rose engages Bison in combat and seems to kill him. In the ending ofStreet Fighter Alpha 2,however, she consults hertarotcards and learns that Bison survived.Rose was inspired byJoJo's Bizarre Adventurecharacter Lisa Lisa.

At the climax ofStreet Fighter Alpha 3,Rose faces Bison once more and rams her fist through his chest, channeling her energy into his body. As Bison grapples with Rose, he reveals that they both share half of "the same soul". In the end, Bison's physical form evaporates and Rose collapses from exhaustion. Soon after,Guyrecovers her and takes her to safety.Although it appears as if Bison has been killed, he has transferred his consciousness into Rose, effectively claiming her body. In the period between theAlphaseries andStreet Fighter II: The World Warrior,Bison remains inside Rose's body until his scientists can form a new (albeit weaker) one for him. Bison appears as the finalbossofStreet Fighter II.TheStreet Fighter IV Training Guidereveals that Rose survived the possession but has no memory of it.

Rose returns in the home versions ofStreet Fighter IVas an additional character, voiced by Gina Grad. Her purpose is to track down Bison and stop him for good after learning that he has survivedAkuma's attack at the end of the second World Warrior tournament.While competing in the tournament, she runs intoRyu.She is determined to halt his advancement for his own protection, saying that he is "the last hope", and they reluctantly fight. In her ending, she is confronted by Bison, who takes his remaining power back from her, causing her to fall to the ground unconscious. As Bison stands over her, he declares his intention to keep her alive to satisfy his soul. The situation is resolved in Guy's ending ofSuper Street Fighter IV,when Guy rescues Rose from Bison as he attempts to flee with her. Rose appears as a playable character in the fifth season ofStreet Fighter V,where she has taken on a new apprentice, Menat.

Rose appears inNamco × Capcom,first as an enemy unit, being made to serve Black Valkyrie fromValkyrie no Densetsuvia soul contract alongsideArmor KingfromTekken,then as a fully playable ally, afterHeihachi Mishimaarrives with the Golden Seed, giving it to Valkyrie who then uses it to allow their souls to escape; after being freed, Rose attempts to use her Soul Power to stop M. Bison and joins the party for the rest of the game. She is also a playable character inCapcom Fighting Evolution,and a boss inStreet Fighter X Mega Man.

Rose makes a cameo appearance in an episode of the first season of the AmericanStreet Fightercartoon series ( "The Medium is the Message" ) as a competitor in a Street Fighter tournament in India among otherStreet Fighter Alphacharacters. She has a more prominent role in the second-season episode "The Flame and the Rose", where she teams up withKenandBlankato fight against Bison.

Rose also plays a major role in the 1995 manga adaptation ofStreet Fighter Alphaby Masahiko Nakahira, where she is a soothsayer who guides Ryu in his quest to control the Dark Hadou. She plays a similar role in the 1999Street Fighter Alpha: The MovieOVA.

Rose appears inStreet Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Liplayed by Elizaveta Kiryukhina as M. Bison's ulterior objective in the story, having sought her inBangkok,where she was left after her mother died. As in the games, she is depicted as the manifestation of M. Bison's good side, though she is born instead of created, making her M. Bison's daughter. For safety reasons, she is alternatively referred to as the "White Rose" to hide her identity. Because she has lived her entire life in Bangkok, she is incapable of speaking English. In the movie's deleted scenes, there is a part where she is confronted by Nash and her eyes turn red, meaning that she was likely meant to be possessed by M. Bison as she was in the games.

In theStreet Fightercomics byUDONin close collaboration with Capcom, it is told that Rose was a member of a tribe ofRoma(a.k.a. Gypsies) that followed a white haired woman known only as Master. The woman had a glowing yellow lightning bolt on her forehead and a very similar hairstyle to Rose. When Rose was a child (roughly ten years of age), M. Bison, a former student of the Master, returned to the tribe and declared that he was going to kill Master, as her knowledge of Soul Power was a threat to him. Though Master fought bravely, Bison's Psycho Power (corrupted Soul Power) ultimately killed her and almost every other person present in the village. Only a man who was away chopping wood away from the village survived. He returned after the explosion and discovered an unconscious Rose who now bore Master's Lightning bolt on her forehead (events inStreet Fighter II#1). InStreet Fighter#2,Cammywas trackingKenand Ryu inSan Franciscowhere she was intercepted by Rose. Later, Rose completely cleansed Cammy of the Psycho Power's influence and erased her brainwashing. She later deposited Cammy on the doorstep of the British Embassy in Italy where her instinctual response to a terrorist attack directly led to her being recruited to Delta Red, the organization she works for inSuper Street Fighter II.Rose is distressed when Cammy, under the employ ofMI5,not only returns to a life of violence but also engages in missions that will inevitably lead her back to Bison. At the conclusion of theStreet Fighter IIline of comics (issue #6), Rose directly confronts Bison (alongside Cammy) and attempts to finally put an end to him. However, he overpowers her with ease and ends up sapping her of her life force. Rose's body dies but her soul continues to live on and comes to haunt Bison in the following comic series (based onStreet Fighter II Turbo).

Sodom

Voiced by:Wataru Takagi(SFAseries), Sadao Nunome (SFA: The Animation)

Sodom originally appeared in the 1989beat-em-upgameFinal Fight,where he is thebossof the Subway stage. An underground wrestling promoter dressed in a samurai-style helmet and gear, Sodom fights the player in an underground ring in the Metro City's subway, wielding twokatanaswords. In 1993'sMighty Final Fight,there are three Sodoms (or Katanas, as the character is called in the English version), known as the Three Katana Brothers. In the English-language localization ofFinal Fightfor theSuper NESandSega CD,Sodom was renamedKatana.The name change was repeated in the SNES version ofStreet Fighter Alpha 2to maintain consistency. The initial name change was due to its reference tosodomy,as well as a possible religious reference toSodom and Gomorrah.

Sodom's first appearance in theStreet Fighterseries was in the originalStreet Fighter Alpha: Warriors' Dreamsin 1995. According to Tatsuya Minami, senior manager of Capcom's Product Planning and Design section, Capcom included Sodom in the game because he was popular and easy to translate to the one-on-one fighting genre.In theAlphaseries, he is characterized as an AmericanJapanophile,who is greatly fascinated by Japanese culture but misunderstands it. After being defeated byGuyinFinal Fight,Sodom recognizes his wrong perception of Japan and travels there to re-educate himself. He develops a new fighting style based on Japanese and Western martial arts and trades his swords for a pair ofjitte.In the firstAlpha,he seeks to rebuild the Mad Gear gang by defeating his rival Guy in combat. In his ending, he reforms the gang and holds up a poster reading "Mad Gear"(Ma nô nghĩa á,mado gia,written inateji).In his ending in 1996'sStreet Fighter Alpha 2,Sodom goes to asumoring in Japan to seek new members for the reformed Mad Gear and ends up being challenged byE. Honda.In 1998'sStreet Fighter Alpha 3,he seeks a new hideout for his gang and goes to claim Shadaloo's new underground base as his own when he learns about it from his former ally Rolento. He crashes his truck intoM. Bison's Psycho Drive to foil his plot. Though he is presumed byChun-LiandCharlieto have died in the explosion, Rolento expresses his belief that Sodom may still be alive.

Apart from theAlphaseries, Sodom appears as a playable character in 1999'sFinal Fight Revengeand makes two cameos in 1997'sSuper Gem Fighter Mini Mix.Sodom makes a cameo in the background of a stage in 2012'sStreet Fighter X Tekken.

Sodom makes a cameo appearance in the 1999 anime filmStreet Fighter Alpha: The Animationas a fighter who travels withRyu,Ken,Chun-Liand some other fighters to Dr. Sadler's laboratory to find and rescue Ryu's alleged younger brother, Shun, though Sodom's comments hint that he is only doing it to prove he is not a coward. As the fighters battle it out to demonstrate their skills to Sadler, Sodom takes on Ken, but is beaten. He and the other fighters are later imprisoned in a cell to have their fighting Ki stripped, but they are released by Ken and Chun-Li.

For Capcom's 15th anniversary ofStreet Fighter,SOTA Toys released a series of action figures, amongst which was Sodom. The figure was fully posable with 16 points of articulation, and modeled after hisStreet Fighter Alphaappearance.

UGO Networksstated that "Street Fighterseries has seen its share of oddball characters, but few are as goofy as Sodom, "further describing him as having one of the" nuttiest backstory of any fighters ".Basim Usmani ofDualshockerspraised his design, stating "Sometimes Capcom takes a wild swing on a character, and the Japanophile Metro City gang leader, Sodom, is as high concept as they come."On the other hand, Doug Perry fromIGNspecifically singled out as a character inStreet Fighter Alpha 3he'd never play due to its oversized cast, calling him "stupid" and adding "Sorry to those of you who play him. I just have one question... Why?"Pastedescribed his story as interesting, but felt the character was a footnote in terms of the series overall, adding "He's little more than a comical and fun addition from the Final Fight roster."Den of Geekadded that they were torn about the character, calling his introduction "the epitome of badass" due to his size and presentation, but responded negatively after he was brought toStreet Fighter Alphawith "I mean…it's funny, don't get me wrong. [...] I just feel that it wasn't the best way to answer his mystique."

Designed byAkira "Akiman" YasudaforStreet Fighter III: New Generation,the team had implemented legacy characterRyuinto the game, and wanted to include a female character, but found her difficult to come up with. Akiman then suggested "Let the girl be a ninja. Ninjas are absolutely cool!"Her initial design was drastically different, consisting of a short haired muscular girl with glasses, wearing an outfit similar toGuyfromFinal Fight,another character he had developed. However they felt this design looked "more like a martial artist than a high-flying ninja".Another pass was done with a focus on a more traditional ninja, the next drawing giving her a full bodysuit and armor over her hands, ankles and crotch.Her appearance and outfit were refined further,giving her a look he described as cute "even though she looks shabby". Series artist and fellow character designer Kinu Nishimura took that statement to heart and emphasized that cute aspect of her art of Ibuki, as well as designing a school outfit for the character.Producer Tomoshi Sadamoto recalled that because they were located in Japan Ibuki was much easier to find reference materials than other characters. Her unique ponytail proved a bit of a problem for the animation team, as to do it properly she had "1.2 to 1.3x the character data" of other fighters, requiring several months to complete with Sadamoto himself helping at the end.

In the plots of the originalStreet Fighter IIIand2nd Impact,Ibuki is sent by her clan to retrieve a mysterious "G file" fromGill's organization, the Illuminati. In Ibuki's game end sequence, Gill hands her the file after their battle. In3rd Strike,she is shown preparing to graduate from high school and is studying for her college application exams, hoping to move away from home to enjoy a normal campus life and find a boyfriend. As part of her final exam, Ibuki is sent to find and defeat the elderly martial artist,Oro.In her3rd Strikeending, she is accepted into the fictional Sarusuberi University(Tư lập bách nhật hồng đại học,Shiritsu Sarusuberi Daigaku),at first without knowledge of its cover for an elite ninja training camp.

Akunairesembling her is seen in Fei Long's ending inStreet Fighter IV(2008). She became playable inSuper Street Fighter IV(2010), where her introductory sequence shows her interacting with a fellow ninjaGuyfor the first time.Her story for the game depicts her looking for fun and boys to date. Ibuki also meetsSakura Kasugano,as she tries to get Sakura to introduce her to a boy.

Ibuki reappears as a playable character inStreet Fighter Vas aDLCcharacter.In her prologue story, Ibuki finally finishes her ninja assignment and is informed by her friend Sakura about the party invitation sent from her rivalKarin Kanzuki.Arriving at the Kanzuki Estate, Ibuki fights and defeatBirdieand Karin. After the fight, Karin lets her stay at the party with handsome boys and gives her the contract which has been approved by the Shinobi village to work with her. Ibuki also appears in the ending ofR. Mika's prologue story, rejecting her offer in muscle training which angers R. Mika who beats her in a fight. Ibuki and R. Mika continue to argue and bicker through the course of the game's main story, "A Shadow Falls", which begins when they and Karin travel to theNew York Cityto find out who is behind the activation of the seven Black Moons, eventually finding out it is a Shadaloo plot. During the first infiltration of the Shadaloo base, Ibuki fightsBalrogbut fails to beat him. She then uses her smoke bomb to distract the enemies and the two successfully escape with it until they reunited with Karin. They witnessZangiefbeatAbel,Ibuki watching in disgust while R. Mika idolizes him. In the final assault against Shadaloo, Ibuki and R. Mika fight off Shadaloo soldiers. Ibuki is last seen watching Shadaloo's destruction with the other fighters.

Asuper deformedversion of Ibuki is a playable character in the fighting gameSuper Gem Fighter Mini Mix/Pocket Fighter(1997),in which she sneaks off from her ninja training for an ice cream in Tokyo.Ibuki is playable in the mobile puzzle gameStreet Fighter: Puzzle Spirits(2014),and appears as a card in the browser-based social gameOnimushaSoul(2012)and in person inStreet Fighter Battle Combination(2015).Her cards also appear inSNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters Clash(1999) andSNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters DS(2007). She has a cameo inCapcom Fighting Evolution/Capcom Fighting Jam(2004).

Ibuki also appears in the crossover fighting game,Street Fighter X Tekken(2012), withRolentoas her tag team partner.In it, she is persuaded by her village leaders to accept Rolento's request for a joint mission to theSouth Pole,serving as his advisor on infiltration.In the story mode, Rolento initially addresses the very annoyed Ibuki asprivatebut "promotes" her to the rank ofsergeantby the end of the game. According to a backstory for theStreet Fighter X TekkenDLC ninja costume-swap for theTekkenseries'Asuka Kazama,Asuka was sent Ibuki's village to learn the ninja arts from her.Ibuki's ownTekkenswap costume is in the style ofYoshimitsu,with her latest assignment having her join his Manji Clan.

Ryota Niitsuma originally considered her for inclusion as a playable character inTatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars(2008), but she was ultimately cut due to time constraints.The "head student at Ibuki's ninja village" was supposed to be a new player character in the rejected concept ofStreet Fighter IV FlashbackbyBackbone Entertainment,

IGN's Jesse Schedeen stated "Ibuki is an apple that falls a bit far from the ninja tree. She's not a musclebound brute, but a young, quirky girl still finding her way in the world," adding that her eccentric nature was "part of what makes her so fun."Martin Robinson ofAskMenstated "ninjas might be ten-a-penny in videogames, but none are as effortlessly cool as Ibuki" and added that she "is one of a handful of characters worth salvaging fromStreet Fighter III."Gavin Jasper ofDen of Geekpraised her as "too fun not to like", noting her complex life specifically and giving additional praise to her role as thestraight manto Rolento's eccentric behavior inStreet Fighter X Tekken.Pastestated "her design, both aesthetically and as a fighter, is actually pretty strong", further calling her the best ninja of the series "by far".Amanda LaPergola and Becky Chambers ofThe Mary Suepraised her status as a ninja, but criticized the emphasis of her story on her story on meeting boys, a trait they felt was too common amongst female characters in theStreet Fighteruniverse.

Within series lore, Gill andUrien(ユリアン,Yurian)are the children of gifted parents who excelled physically and intellectually.The Illuminati separated the brothers from their birth parents at the age of six and gave them a specialized education to become candidates for the organization's presidency. Gill was ultimately chosen, leaving Urien bitter with resentment.In2nd Impact,Urien challenges Gill for the presidency. He eventually gains the title, only to learn that Gill has been promoted to Emperor, the true leader of the Illuminati, whose existence is known only to its presidents and chairmen. In3rd Strike,in spite of his new position, Urien still resents the supremacy of his brother.He decides to eliminate Gill permanently and destroys the preservation facility where Gill is still recovering.During the character introduction that precedes every match inStreet Fighter III,he is presented as wearing business attire prior to the beginning of his fight, where shortly afterwards his skin darkens and his clothes disappear, leaving him wearing only a white loincloth like Gill.

Gavin Jasper fromDen of Geekplaced Urien 34th place in a ranking list ofStreet Fightercharacters, noted that his role as a disgruntled underling plotting to usurp his brother calls into question who is the true main villain of theStreet Fighter IIIseries.As Urien is essentially a head and palette swap of Gill's in-game model and gameplay mechanics, Jasper praised the developers of2nd Impactfor differentiating both characters by applying select variations to Gill's moveset and visual design to create Urien. Ian Walker fromKotakunoted that Urien was popular with players in both casual and competitive spheres ofStreet Fighter IIIdue to his distinct look and abilities.

He recognizes Guile's "Sonic Boom" technique, but refuses to comment when Guile presses him for information aboutCharlie,its originator. It is hinted in his original ending that Abel may have been abducted in his youth to serve as a "replacement body" for M.Bison, or created by Shadaloo as a prototype of Seth, a later replacement body. This is reinforced by dialogue from both Bison and Seth, who refer to him as "the one that got away". The appearance of his eyes change to resemble Seth's during the initiation of his Ultra Combo 1, Soulless. It is also hinted that Charlie was the person that helped him as Abel recognizes Guile's fighting style and Abel even comments to Chun-Li about the soldier that rescued him from Shadaloo.In Abel's rival encounter, Abel mentions that he recognizes Guile's Sonic Boom, leading to speculation that he may have spent time with Charlie.

In the storyline ofStreet Fighter II: Ryu,Gouken trained Ryu and Ken in his temple somewhere in the Japanese wilderness.One day, Akuma stormed Gouken's dojo and killed him, leaving Ryu and Ken with the duty to avenge their master's death. While the novel took liberties with the established canon of the games, Gouken's character would be adapted in the storyline of the later games in the series followingAkuma's introduction inSuper Street Fighter II Turbo.

According to the backstory that was developed forSuper Street Fighter II Turboand theStreet Fighter Alphaseries, Gouken and Akuma learned a murderous martial art style from their master, Goutetsu(Oanh thiết,Gōtetsu).It included the special techniques theHadouken,theShoryukenand theTatsumaki Senpukyaku,20 years before theStreet Fightertournament. After Goutetsu was killed by Akuma, Gouken refined these special techniques, eliminating the "murderous energy" they possessed and developed them into a purely combative martial art. He would then teach this new style to two students, Ryu and Ken. Gouken also trainedDanat one time, but then expelled him after seeing that Dan was motivated by revenge.

Gouken makes an appearance in Akuma's ending in the originalStreet Fighter Alpha,in which he is depicted as a white-bearded old man with bushy eyebrows. Akuma's dialogue exchange with Ryu inStreet Fighter Alpha 2suggest that Akuma killed Gouken prior to the events of theAlphaseries. Suzaku Castle, Ryu's home stage in theStreet Fighter IIseries,Street Fighter Alpha 2andStreet Fighter III 3rd Strike,is the apparent resting place of Gouken.

Gouken makes his first full-fledged appearance as a fighter in the arcade version ofStreet Fighter IV,where he appears as a secret computer-controlled challenger.CapcomretconnedGouken's apparent death during his battle with Akuma. In Gouken's animated opening he reveals that after losing in battle to Akuma, he did not die but was simply rendered unconscious for an extended period of time. Gouken survived the Shun Goku Satsu by completely emptying his soul of emotions, which left him in a deep coma. He is shown watching as Ryu and Ken walk off, believing him, Gouken, to be dead. He is not concerned, however, what Ryu and Ken believe as he knows that their path is a righteous one and that he looks forward to reuniting with them once more someday. Gouken's mid-game cutscene show him confront Ryu, much to Ryu's disbelief, for a friendly master versus student spar in which Gouken is victorious. In his animated ending, Gouken faces Ryu again, finding that his student is being overtaken by the murderous energy, defeats him and suppresses, after which he notices Akuma is in the area. He also appears again in Akuma's animated ending. In this scene, after Ryu has been defeated by Gouken, Akuma appears and challenges his brother to a fight to the death with the winner claiming Ryu. Gouken also reveals that he has reached a new level of mastery known as "the power of nothingness"(Vô の quyền,Mu no Ken)and has now become even stronger, to the point where Akuma stops his Raging Demon attack after sensing Gouken's power of Nothingness.

Seth

InStreet Fighter IV,Seth is presented as the CEO of the weapons corporation S.I.N., and has altered himself using highly advanced technology, which has changed him on a seemingly structural level and made him much more than human. Having collected data on some of the world's best fighters, Seth borrows moves from a number of different characters to create a fighting style of his own. Seth is intent on completing BLECE (Boiling Liquid Expanding Cell Explosion), which spurs the creation of a new fighting tournament.Seth is a non-playable final boss in the arcade version ofStreet Fighter IV,but is selectable in the home console version.In the character's ending, Seth is revealed to be "Number 15", one of many androids created by Bison which are intended to be a replacement body for him. Number 15 rebels against his programming, tries to overthrow Bison and pursue his own agenda. Another major character introduced in the game,Abel,is also revealed to be a prototype of Seth's model.Outside of theStreet Fighterseries, Seth appears as a rival unit inProject X Zone,interacting withAlisa Bosconovitch,Juri,RyuandJin Kazama.

It is revealed that Seth has survived the events ofIVafter transferring his consciousness from his damaged original body into "Doll Unit 0", a feminine body type used in Bison's Doll Program.An updated version of Seth's original design fromStreet Fighter IVis available as an alternatecostumefor the character.

The character is named after Seth Killian, Capcom's formersenior manager.Killian explained in an interview dated April 2009 that it was not his idea to have the character named after himself, though he felt honored as aStreet Fighterfan for being part of the series' history.In an interview withEurogamerto promote the release ofStreet Fighter IV,series producerYoshinori Onoexplained that Seth is a new character who has connections to other major characters in the game's narrative, in particular recurring series antagonistM. Bisonand his Shadaloo organization who were presumed to have met their demise at the end ofStreet Fighter II.Ono drew attention to his vacant facial expression, strange skin coloration, and the Tanden Engine device embedded in his stomach as visual markers indicating his "unique-looking" visual design and that he is clearly not an ordinary human being.

At the conclusion of the 2019 edition ofCapcom Cup,Ono and professional wrestlerKenny Omegaappeared on stage to announce the unveiling of Seth as the 40th and newest addition to theStreet Fighter V: Champion Editionroster, the full version of which will be released on February 14, 2020.For the character's redesign, the development team began with an “antique/old-fashioned” concept, as the goal was to make the “First” Seth. The team was also exploring the idea of an apprentice character for Gen at the time, and eventually decided to combine that idea with Seth's look inStreet Fighter IV.The design direction then began to shift toward the character's finalized appearance inStreet Fighter V,with a hair knot replacing the character's bald head, and inspiration for the character's silhouette drew from fierce Buddhist statues likeKongo Rikishi and Nio statues.Seth's physiology is based on the idea of a human-like being found by some organization who would “continue evolving” by absorbing the DNA of other individuals.The developers also explored the idea of Seth’s arms and legs transforming in the manner seen inSteampunk-themed movies and books, and fans would be added to the character's back to suggest a cooling down mechanism is in place to prevent overheating issues during battle.Small Tanden Engines are also implemented to work as spherical joints; when the character's epidermis expands, the power flow from the Tanden Engine becomes visible.
