My sister's funeral was today. It was hard seeing all those I care about so hurt and broken by the loss of someone we all cared about and loved so much. I LOVE the Honest Gaming History videos so this came out at the PERFECT time. Thank you so much for giving me something to laugh about today.

With Street Fighter, (and fighting games in general)having dozens of characters with their own lores and stories I really appreciate how you went about explaining things in a way that I was able to comprehend . Shoot I had no idea the games even went in this particular order until now.

I have been playing Street Fighter since the early 90’s. Your video was watched from start to finish, and you definitely nailed it. What I love about this video most is your new generation energy and vibe you are bringing to this classic game. I am very impressed. Thank you for creating a comprehensive video throughout the generations.

The Street Fighter 30th collection states that Akuma fights M. Bison during the second Street Fighter tournament in Akuma's character info, so that's probably the canon ending.

Hey easy on my man Sagat! 😂 He lost the first fight with Adon because he wasn’t completely healed and was too focused on Ryu and the one he lost in SF4 was because he allowed Adon to win out of pity for him.

[@TheBlackMastadonte]

No prob fam

[@dman3431]

Laura obviously doesn't beat Ken. He was definitely holding back. Also, World Tour mode will take place in Metro City and other countries as well. I can't wait to play it. It's the mode I am most hype for in SF6.

[@kingdrake9104]

Thank you! That was the best and most thorough explanation of the series I've ever seen or heard! I haven't played all of the games, but of the ones that I have you DEFINITELY explained things better than the game did themselves!

[@karnis3004]

Thank you for making this video, I've been so interested in Street Fighter lately! It helps a lot!

[@darktigersharkmax4432]

Binged it while it was live and my god what an amazing video easily worth the wait learned lots facts about characters and thr story I honestly didn't know. Now obviously not every single fact about the story and characters were included like Vega's backstory or Dan might've beat Chun li in a fight but that doesn't harm the quality of the video overall and it wasn't even that important to the story in the first place. As for the ending theory I'm honestly thinking JP is bison's or another experiment that's funding the neo shadoloo, since all the members are bison clones and other experiments, I think he's gonna possess all of them at once and use the collective psycho power to rule/destroy the world and assuming this is the case Bison's plans are already looking like it's in full swing since his psycho power is looking way more powerful with brand new abilities but yeah I would prefer the illuminati became the next major antagonist like in 3rd strike. Once again fire video and easily one of if not the best Honest gaming histories you've done and I hope it gets the attention it deserves.

[@koholos]

Really impressive. I’m usually not a big fan of people doing comedic asides in their explanations, but yours were actually mostly funny and fit pretty well with the rest of your tone. I also liked both your thoroughness and trying to help keep track of what is and isn’t canon. I mean, I’ve played most of the games and still have no clue what was going on, so this was great. I am bummed that when you pointed out that Balrog is a Mike Tyson ripoff, you didn’t also mention that in Japan his name is actually M Bison, but that probably would have added yet another layer of confusion to an already confusing mess. I tried checking out the rest of your channel, but I don’t read a ton of manga, so there’s probably not much for me. But I’ll definitely subscribe in case you do any more videos like this. It was pretty fire.

[@ragunaraiden]

Thanks for this well done recap just in time to get back on the SF6 hype train. This was the first of your videos I had stumbled across but man, I'm hooked. You got the energy and a really easy to listen to voice which made the hour long video zoom by (y'all know what I mean - some creators be out here shouting every line and making it a chore). I'm also hype to give Kimberly some playtime too. Ninjas are my jam and it helps that Kimberly has one of the coolest designs (and that rocking character theme, my god) of the new characters.

This is a SPECTACULAR timeline summary. Thank you for all of this dynamic work. ONE QUESTION: do (or, how do) the Street Fighter comics from Udon and the animated series tie in?

[@TheBlackMastadonte]

Thanks so much fam. And from what I've read, the UDON comics are not-canon. They're kind of like what-if stories that expand on character lore, but a lot of it contradicts the game lore

[@JusticeForHire]

@@TheBlackMastadonte Ahh thank you brother. that’s disappointing to hear about the comics. Capcom needs to hire you as a story manager. On a separate note, you might enjoy what we’re doing with our Justice For Hire project. We’re a show and cinematic universe being produced with anyone and everyone that wants to join the vigilante story world. Would love your eyes on what we’re doing, and perhaps have you in the series.

[@freddyfazbearscout1661]

Damn. I wanted to look at more of the street fighters lore. But my man literally gave me the story for like a good solid hour. You props got a sub from me :D

[@Mucmaster]

Lee from Street fighter 1 actually comes up a bit as a background character. He's the uncle to Yun and Yang and is the one who taught them martial arts, and its implied he was a friend of Chun-Li's father. On top of that he may be Jamie's father, this is very tenuous, but an early leak and listed the new characters and called Jamie, Yun and Yang's cousin, then 6 months later the trailer dropped revealing Jamie and Chun-li and there was a character artwork leak confirming the new comer leak so its valid info, but at the same time the official profile on Jamie just says he was inspired by Yun and Yang so the relation ship may be a familiar one or the leaker could of misconstrued some information or the characters background could of changed between the leak and the reveal.

[@TheBlackMastadonte]

OOOH that's really interesting. Ima look into that

[@kai_s.hazaki289]

Well you have to do a Final Fight video now, not only it's connected to Street Fighter, but SF6 is centered around Metro City

[@lorenzolara1148]

Maybe they will bring back Asura from Asura’s Wrath as a cameo or as DLC. Since at the ending/epilogue of that game, Asura was reawakening his Wrath power just as a meteor was falling towards the city he lives in.
