Street Fighter 2 Blanka's Theme

[@tomtomtomato1]

Much respect to Yoko Shimomura she said she wrote this theme in a hurry...

[@noneofyourbusiness1998]

And she still crafted a banger!

[@wongkeeheng7635]

her magic word was "tararirarin", after she noticed something flapping above the train compartment she was on while going to work.. it was making this sound and that's how she got the idea for Blanka's theme :)

[@GOLDxSKULLSxARExON]

To whoever doesn't know, blanka is not a monster, he is a man who was abandoned in the jungle as a an infant during a plane crash, and was raised by animals to become feral. his skin is green from his long exposure to plants (yes that is the true explanation) and he was supposedly red-haired. he never clipped his nails or shaved, and he didn't learn proper english, explaining his grunts and roars.
