Street Fighter II: V Reviews

Street fighter V is a great series that is sort of an prequel to The exellent Movie Street fighter the Movie. Made in 1995 at the SF Prime time and live up to the SF status very well but don't know if its a PG 13 or rated R series ?



Ryu, a japanese vagabond and Martial art master get an invitation by his Old friend Ken Masters to visit him in America. While there Ken take Ryu to a sightseeing around NY but then they get into a bar fight with Guile, a US Army Man who use to be a street fighter. After Gulie defeat both of them Ken and Ryu deside that their Martial art is not strong enough and therefore they deside to travel around the world to challenge the best figthers, including Fei Long a Hong Kong Star, Sagat a prisoned muy thai fighter, Dhalsim a mystery man from India, and Balrog a psychopath bull fighter from Spain. They also team up with Chun Li a daughter to the Interpol leader, together they go to an adventure more dangerous then expected.



How does it hold as a action, adventure, drama series?

Its well done animated With the action choreography That keeps you up on your seat, its very exited, every adventure the character goes to is a thrill. But there is one gap I have to mention. The series seems to have a hard time to know if its a PG 13 or a rated R series. Some episodes feel goofy and unserious then it suddenly change to more serious and almost over bloody episode, but don't worry That doesn't make it a bad series, it may be unbalanced and not The best, but absolutley one of The greatest series of all time, 3/5



How does it hold as an anime ?

As allways, japanese anime is beautiful. However in this case because of The unbalanced plot it seems The animators didn't know what level they would anime the characters, somtimes they look like goofy characters then change to more serious characters. And also it's wierd that both Ken Masters and Ryu are 17 but they look like they are at their early 20s, the Only one who look like an 18 year Old is Chun Li and she is suppose to be 15 (hum What?). And one more nitpick is Charlie Dash, he is suppose to be a Gulie Look alike (well according to The street fighter alpha games) and he is suppose to be well trained Martial art, but here he looks nothing like Guile, he is older and beardy, and seems not very skilled (well to be fair, both The alpha game and this serie was made in The same year so That explains that they didn't know) but part from That The anime is good specially on The action scenes so 3/5.



One bonus point !

The Music is wow so besutiful, i love The japanese pop, and its easy listening songs like Cry from The legendary group Chage&Aska plus The other songs like lonley babey, and forever friend. One extra point for That !



How does it hold as a serie in general ?

A guilty pleasure and it keeps you on your seat With exitement, great action, exiting adventure, cool characters, and great story despite somtimes goofy.



Total 7/10
