I actually liked Seth's simple design and backstory in SFIV. Plus I find the idea of fighters whose moves are an amalgam of cherry picked moves from other fighters interesting. Though having him undermined as still being Bison's puppet despite his own machinations was frustrating and I wasn't enamoured with his new movement or look either.

Seth i always felt had a unique back story. But a Copy Cat fighter was something I felt was kinda over done in fighters. Didnt help that Seth's design felt very mute. Looked like a model template for "create a character". When Seth was added to SFV, the design was much more vibrant. And the i love the expressions Seth is given giving the character a bit more personality.

[@kamenrangerzeo8251]

I thought Seth was an instresting new boss character for the street fighter series. However when you have final bosses like Bison or Gill its kind of hard to replace something like that. Now will give credit to the SF crew that changed Seth's form into the waifu that everyone likes and I hope to see her back in SF6, but where she is more tactical and has guile like Gill. I think they can have it where Gill restores or modify her personality to suit his plans.

[@wesselvanharrewijn3082]

After reading into the wiki on Seth's story, honestly i think he's a cool character, and i hope to see him return in street fighter 6, maybe returning with a more sane mind, and having new ambitions to chase once he beats M. Bison. Seth is just an interesting villain, a mechanical being created to be a walking replacement for Bison, and whilst trying to forge his own path, actually doing exactly what Bison wanted him to do. And after his defeat, getting revived by the person that struck the final blow, and due to a mishap causing Seth to suffer from psychosis. Like, he's a cool character, not only with the fact that his moveset in both street fighter 4 and street fighter 5 is almost entirely made up of moves performed by other characters [even from different fighting game franchises], but of course also with his story and, in my opinion, Seth will still be my favorite character. i need him to be in street fighter 6 though, if he doesnt appear i will be extremely dissapointed.

[@Joseph_Drew_III]

Seth’s appearance WOULD be bland if not for the Tandem Engine, which really adds a lot to the design.

[@billsmith30]

Seth is lame as a final boss, but he's one of the most fun SF characters Capcom has ever made. It doesn't even matter if I'm talking about the version from 4 or 5, it's just that good

[@megabear8905]

Can we stop calling Seth a trans character. He never chose to change his sex, And still refers to himself with male pronouns. Juri took his mind and put it in a body without enough memory to support it, Turning him batshit crazy. If he did want to change his appearance, I highly doubt he'd pick a body that hurts to be inside.

[@lunakingsley.7247]

How would that make him trans. Trans isn't forced or anything remotely like that.

[@spence6195]

I'm not sure why you are so angry about Seth being perceived as transgender but the creators said the character was always nonbinary. Street Fighter never shied away from making queer characters, I mean have you seen Vega? Zangief was hinted at liking Vega, Poison was most likely confirmed as trans, Juri hinted at being bi, even Eagle is designed after Freddie Mercury and also gay I think. I know Seth didn't willingly transition into a female form but the creators still changed it's gender appearance.

[@blooddemon3379]

Nobody is calling him trans...

[@wesselvanharrewijn3082]

seth is genderless... so use whatever you like. to me he will always be the king though.

MAN I KNOW THE ARTIST OF THAT THUMBNAIL PICTURE OH NOOOOOO

[@ilyashiz]

Who is that and whats wrong with him?

[@moonlitequimby847]

What Happen????

[@BlueLightningSky]

Seth (SFIV) is not a ditto fighter, he's a frankestein fighter, his moveset is just a combination of the existing moves of other characters. He's like Ogre or Honoka and I guess also Shujinko. SFV Seth is more of Ditto fighter in that he copies moves during the round, but only when you select the correct vskill. There's a bit of a frankestein to SFV Seth since he has some of Makoto's moves but they're mostly just aesthetic. What made him such a frankentein in 4 was that he had fireball, a command grab and a teleport. From a story perspective he is kinda underwhelming especially since they just used Juri to hype SSFIV then Oni to hype SSFIVAE. He definitely could fit as a final boss with wow, I have all your moves kind of deal but SF's cast is so similar to each other that he can easily feel lazy. He can do a shoryuken? That is so cute. Now let's see all the other shotos. If they wanted him to be hype as a frankenstein, he should have been able to raging demon in SFIV.

[@wdcain1]

I like Seth's theme of artificial methods vs. natural like his his henchwomen using tech and all his moves being programmable. Plus his evil speech in the _Ties That Bind_ OVA how being greedy and evil was what made him human was so cool. Seth's that "robot that wants to be real" trope but he thinks that means being a total villain. Maybe if he just needed a better design.

[@shikarbabulall3897]

Yeah I agree I liked Street Fighter 4 since it was like a modern day SF2 but Seth was a boring useless villain who had nothing original.He was annoying.

[@SorcererLance]

In many ways... Seth seems like an attempt by Capcom to make a new villain in SF4, but failed as the traditional main villain usurped his short-lived throne due to unpopularity with fans... not unlike how Alex was Capcom's attempt to make a new protagonist for SF3, but was swept under the rug in favor for the more-familiar Ryu due to, unsurprisingly, unpopularity with the fans I can see Alex and Seth being drinking buddies having both gotten a taste of having a leading role and quickly losing it

[@moonfeatherp145]

Alex was to represent a new generation as the other fighter matured or got older. He was never to replace ryu. He's like k' to kyo.

[@GE0RGECREWS]

Seth always gave me sub boss vibes. Like a final boss' henchmen. How sagat& fang was to bison. He wasnt challenging or difficult to me in one bit. Sidebar: I give sf5 seth credit for his move where he downloads the fighter's special move.

[@sadowolf]

I don't remember Seth being universally hated other than just being really cheap. I never really heard too many critiques on his design; as much as I love SF and its characters, they usually keep their designs very grounded, and many of the ones that stray from that tend to look a bit silly. Sagat is essentially a tall, jacked, featureless dude just like Seth was, but with an eyepatch and Muay Thai getup haha. Bison is one of my favorite SF characters, but his design is a pretty clear ripoff of General Washizaki from Riki-Oh and Yasunori Kato from Teito Monogatari. Gill is another tall, jacked, barely clothed generic looking dude, but with flowing hair. They're not reinventing the wheel here, and at least Seth has a giant yin-yang marble as a belly, which is more unique a design feature than any of the others have haha. I wouldn't doubt that they drew at least some inspiration from DBZ's androids, but it should also be mentioned that he's basically a sentient Monitor Cyborg from Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie.

[@saidi7975]

Seth kinda reminds me of Dr Manhattan design-wise. As for Gill, he's reminescent of Kars to me for some reason...

[@sadowolf]

@@saidi7975 I can see both of those. Dr Manhattan is another tall, jacked, bald, featureless guy, but he and Seth also have unnatural cool-toned skin colors that make them favor each other. Kars is also not at all far fetched since they both have that statuesque Greek/Roman-inspired look with flowing long hair. Gill's alternate Spartan warrior attire in SFV makes him favor Kars even more in terms of gear. But even more so, the Jojo influence in SF characters is also nothing new, with characters like Guile, Juri, and Rose seeming to be clearly inspired by Ponlareff, Jolene, and Lisa Lisa respectively (especially Juri/Jolene). Gill and Necalli probably also take some inspiration from Santana.

[@saidi7975]

Hey, Top Hat Gaming Man. Can you please do a Street Fighter character documentary video on Rainbow Mika?

[@Crawver]

The biggest issue with street fighter story telling is that both the developers, and the fans, refuse to let go of the past. Everything has to always revolve and return to M.bison and Ryu. Seth was interesting, but the biggest bad guy still has to be M.Bison, so he inevitably gets undercut. And the one time capcom did move forward and leave that story behind was in SF3, and while that's viewed as a gold standard mechanically, it's rare we hear many fans speak of those characters positively. It's a shame, as I think everyone left with the wrong lessons learned from 3.

[@snowqueen_8958]

[@Eronicavel]

Your video was well done. I liked Seth. I don't like how they changed him. I would've preferred Street Fighter 4 to be his first and last appearance. They should've just moved on and spent MORE time on Street Fighter 5's poorly written story than let's make Seth more likable.

I believe the art in the thumbnail is from rampage0118, though watch out, they draw some... "Interesting" art

i love he's named after seth killian as i always have nostalgia for his time at capcom being when i started looking up & loved capcom's classics,find it funny the arcade mode is all the characters beating him and his clones up and while i feel they don't do enough with his resemblance to juri in unit zero really love his look in 5 especially her smirk.

You know, Seth also looks a lot like Geegus from world Heroes as well!

There was an anime movie that came that explained what BLECE was. It basically gave people enormous ki, close to what Evil Ryu has. But most people’s bodies couldn’t handle it and would die.

I thought it’s cool how he has a yin and yang in his stomach the symbol of martial arts for eons.
