Evolution of Ryu's Theme from Street Fighter 2 | 1992 - 2021 

Facts

Yea

Truth! It was magnificent! The transitions throughout the entire video!

Yup

I totally agree

It fits him exactly because it sounds Japanese. However, the Suzaku Castle stage theme from SF5 is right there with it.

It's not for nothing that the original composer of Street Fighter 2 made that song Only Yōko Shimomura knows what Ryu's and Vega's themes should sound like in Smash

I understand you. I've been maining Ryu since 1989

@@misterx5115 as ryu was the only playable character in SF1, lol

@@0pt1cd4k1d Not if you had two controllers.

How do you feel about sf6 ryu, after the demos and betas? :D

@@b.w.6919 That's a great question. So far, I feel like SF6 has the best, most well-rounded Ryu of all SF games. I think this is the best version of this character, and if you know what to do with him, he's a beast. I suppose all characters will be broken this first season (as they were in SFV's 1st season), but hopefully, they won't nerf him too badly in SF6 later on. But so far, he really is a fantastic character to play. Many options to choose from, very well-rounded, and can deal massive damage, and, most importantly: so FUN to play. If I'm being honest, I think the characters who will shine the most in SF6 are the grapplers, and I think Zangief will wreck everything in his path. But through the carnage, I will still be maining Ryu. I've been trying him out since the second beta was released, and he def. brought his A-game. Can't wait for the Open Beta to hit in just 2 days! "This will be a good fight!"

SF Alpha 2 (Arcade) Street Fighter 5 Super Smash Bros SF 4 (Vs Akuma)

I agree with this but I still think sf4s theme version is good at presenting the feeling of "oh yeah you know who he is"

Ryu's Street Fighter EX3 theme definitely tops them all. If you haven't heard it yet, be amazed.

In what ways? I thought it would was completely unique but maybe I missed something every time I listened to it.

​@@GoldGuard It got some of that funky Jazz in some of the variations (Like Capcom vs SnK) and it's absoloute fire)

本当にそう思いますね。 初期のRyuのテーマが格好良いのに段々…⤵️

Lies again? American Education Bus Driver

No, Ryu V.S Akuma is a very epic theme, but SFV is so much very epic.

YES! I mean, this selection is really good (and the transitions! *chef's kiss*), but Patrick Gill's version just has this aura that pulls you in and makes you feel like you're actually training with Ryu.

Also missing "The road" from Alpha 3 and also Ryu's MVC1 theme (SF main theme), but this collection is based on his original theme and all it's variations.

Sounds VERY much like the Metriod Prime, title screen music.

Japan version

Out with the old and I'm with the new I suppose

It's literally been 30 years. Pretty good time to go with something new. His old theme plays in the background of his new theme anyway.

clearly you haven’t played sf3

Had to make everyone's music suck in that game besides Gief

Ruy's thème si not a remixed one from SF2... at least, alpha 3(bust still, an awesome theme)

What about it?

You mean sf6 mate

@@akuma2916 Yep! My bad! Edited!!
