I am the closest thing in real life to one of these guys and I owe my amazing life and true abilities to the artists that gave us these movies! I am not even close to a ki blast yet lol!! I was able to hold life and death in my hands because of the power I had from training from 5 years old till adulthood! That really did scare me! We are really capable of unbelievable power! If I did not have a good mother and father I would have been a true villain! Because of them and in movies good always wins I saved many lives and made a real difference to thousands of people. I was the lucky one! Many of my friends and fellow fighters found fast ends! If I was truly a powerful person I could have saved them! I wish the world was as simple as this anime was as a child!! In real life the good guy never lives like I have! I am the only living one out of my class and i am 46 and truly loved the life of a movie! Except the bad guys are always out of reach and all we can. Do is fight the Battle in front of us! I wish I could have fixed the world with my fists!! Only Good can help us now!!
For those who don't know, the three Shadallo bosses had their names swapped outside the Japanese version: The Boxer, Mike Bison became Balrog because they didn't wanted to leave a villain based on "Mike Tyson" The Dictactor's name, Vega, was considered kinda weak, so he became "M. Bison". The Claw's original name was Balrog, but his original name was given to the Boxer, and he got the Dictactor's original name. Maybe this isn't the true history behind the changes, but it's the information i have.
happy 35th anniversary street fighter!!!(wish we'd see another street fighter movie/anime in this style.:3) always took the flashes when ryu pummels the daylights out of m. bison as him trying to block it with psycho power but ryu being that strong it actually broke through as well as kinda similar to the fight with sagat shoryukenning him before defeating him with a hadoken only we fully see it.
Capcom got some insane artist for this movie. It's absolutely stunning! No wonder Marvel trusted them to do their games. Btw anyone notice evil Ken in this movie sounds exactly like Adon from SF Alpha?? Can anyone tell me if It's the same voice actor?? I'm very curious 🤔
I think that this is still the best sf movie yet why cant they make movie like these ones more way better and for american dubb they need to stop changing everything and deleting the movie out
FINALLY I FOUND THE JAPANESE VERSION!!! I don't know how long this will stay up, but once again THANKS!! I tire of the dub version, and something about the soundtrack, how it starts out mellow and then builds up , just like the action
The fight scenes from this older Street Fighter movie is far superior to the newer versions. A shame that a sequel was never made for this movie. It'd be cool to see Ryu vs Akuma or even Akuma vs Goken.
Discotek releasing that English dub with the Japanese soundtrack made a whole lot of difference for me, made me a lot more fond of the English dub. I never liked the American soundtrack, too much electric guitar. The Japanese ost had far more emotion that reflected the scenes, so combining that with the English voices, which were great for an anime dub, just made this film even more of a masterpiece than it already was. Thats the dub I watch now, English with Japanese music. Can't get enough of it 😁😁
They can't make a good live action one cause american cinemas always want to change characters race names back stories etc that's y ever installation of the live action movies have been shit. I mean they destroy their own beloved comic book heroes why wouldnt they destroy the Japanese ones too. Just look at the reboot to fantastic four Jonny storm is black lol um in the batman vs superman movie wonder woman is skranny no boobs no butt lex luther is a skin street punk. Shit even in the batman movies batman has killed all his enemies. Even superman the boyscout is a killer. So don't have any hopes that they will do street fighter justice.
24 years ago I watched this unforgettable movie but today I recognized how beautiful and emotional is the Japanese version.I m more than grateful to every Japanese person who was sweating blood to make this lovely masterpiece...
When the Hadoken was an actual finishing move and had some majesty to it. When I was a kid, I remember the scene where Ken tried to fire his Hadoken at T. Hawk. I thought the reason Ken couldn't charge it was that T. Hawk wasn't evil and that the Hadoken only worked on evil people. While I learned differently as time went on and we got more back story, still loved how the story still kept a few things shrouded in mystery.
You have to be impressed that despite that in the 2 v 1 fight, Bison/Vega (Dictator) was still strong fighting both Ryu and Ken with just his fists and not using Psycho Power. P.S. - They brought this song by for SF6.
the movie really is full of awesome. This part especially. It kinda codified the look of the characters while also having an impact on them in the future. This brawny look especially is evident. Especially outside japan since some posters have different art, and it was all over the place, so we had to rely the game sprits and portraits. Also they tried doing other SF movies but none come close. It really is the best animation and spin of it. Maybe the best video game movie but that's not hard right. It's a good spin off. In general games have a hard time transitioning to even anime and manga(and of course movies). The best from the fighting games to movies too though some other ones are okay enough.
This is awesome, I'd forgotten how great the Japanese version was. I love both of course but this version just seems to have something special, maybe it's the great music. Anyway, thanks for the upload.
He LET them beat him, kwowing HE was the villain who had to be defeated😕 Being stronger than both of them combined, even without his psycho abilities, he could’ve easily dodged that fused hadouken sphere
It would be INCREDIBLE to see Vega (or M. Bison in the english versions😑) appear as a playable character in Smash Ultimate. Even though Sakurai and his team have stopped making dlc fighters…😔
The only better part of the Japanese audio is the song that plays during the Ryu and Ken vs. Bison part. I think Street Fighter has always secretly been an American game... I mean, it's made in Japan by the Japanese, but it's always been more popular here than there...
i can never find the music for this battle on youtube now...always the US version >_> at least someone was smart enough to post the japanese version of this scene
I'll be honest when I ask respond or m essageif you would read it...I'm contemplating doing a fanfic For this scene....just up to snuff sort of with alpha elements like...example...with her potential....and being someone ryu would not fight if she was in this position....sakura in kens place. And perhaps other elements as well Also if it gets enough likes maybe revamp the whole movie to include more alpha characters
happy 30th anniversary street fighter 2: the animated movie!!! (favorite video game film period & definitely favorite anime final battle especially the song being about ryu & ken's bond against the toughest fight of their lives showing them being stronger than it which after seeing it brought into the alpha games/capcom's tag team aspects because the producers loved this film i'd love the games replicating for 6 since the singer for this came back just with chun li/cammy/juri/maybe sakura involved.:3) the part where ryu immediately gets up from m. bison's slide having enough in him to wallop the shit out of the dictator(always took the flashes as bison trying to use psycho power to soften the blow but ryu still able to pierce past than what he expected.)after getting knocked down/blasted by psycho power blast that floored guile after being worn out by endurance(showing the difference between guile being unfocused with emotion which chun li warned him about compared to ryu/ken/likely chun li if she got involved in the final battle which i wish happened staying focused on dealing with their threat). in real pragmatism grabbing his legs so he doesn't try to get away so ken get strike him with the whirlwind kick/in a echo to sagat's fight nail him with the shoryuken to hit him with the hadouken & the sonic boom the double hadouken makes when being fired at bison sending him into the vtol just as he's about to use his psycho power to escape.(he does but is implied it took a lot of it out of him to escape with how he just decides after his organization gets nuked by interpol's team up with the military and failing to get ryu with psycho power/fighting on their own level with his bare hands just decides to as a last resort use a truck to run over ryu which nowadays find extremely hilarious with how earlier ryu kicked through a shadaloo car with no injury to beat it's driver up a truck isn't going to do much.)
Does anybody know the name of the song (japanese version) where Ryu first starts fighting Bison/Vega after Bison/Vega throws Ken outta the way or where I can find it? It is sort of a sad melidous piano tune. Thanks
They didn't "Get the names wrong." They changed them because Capcom was afraid Mike Tyson would take offense and sue. And the US names actually fit better (Vega actually is a Spanish name)
Well the concept of Chi originated from china, so It would make sense that even though Ansatsuken is japanese it has some deep rooted Chinese principles behind it. btw do you know the exact translations for what he was saying in the chant?
