remy from streets Corrections: -bikei doesn't actually completely mean twink. it's more that twink is a subset of bikei. this is wholly my fault, and not the fault of the source i listed, since i had more confidence in my idea of the meaning of both bikei and twink than i reasonably should have. it's more accurate to say twink is a subset of bikei. -the backstory of K' wasn't ripped off from cool, but rather from haiji. i don't know how this one happened. there goes an entire minute of rambling about absolutely nothing. -ed is not a twink. i remembered him being more of a twink than he was. and i didn't bother to change it for some reason? -remy was in one other udon cover which is EVEN MORE INSULTING

Would be hilarious if he somehow appears in another Capcom game that doesn't involve fighting.

[@marshiallaw]

A well-known fact (factoid?) is that Guile was supposed to be in SF3 but, due to lack of time, CAPCOM rush added Remy by repurposing stuff for Guile. They chose a "bikei" character because a slim-figured character was missing from the roster. By the way, 美形/Bikei doesn't mean twink. It just means good-looking for all genders. It does tend to be used for slim, asexual-looking males but has nothing to do with being gay or not. Remy is most likely "inspired" by the visual band boom in Japan, kinda edgy and asexual visuals, like so many other characters that can be categorized as "bikei". Iori is a great example as his looks are almost a straight copy of such bands during the time the game was released. Even his hobby is doing music/band. ED's design follows a bikei type boys bands/groups visuals that were popular in Japan a few years back, probably when his concept art was designed. So it kinda follows the chart you made but it's more of a reflection of the trend of a stereotypical bikei as a whole in Japan at that time.

[@novameowww]

iori continues to be a mid-90's japan microcosm huh

[@goob8945]

Awesome, how did you find this information?

[@marshiallaw]

@@goob8945 For the story about Remy, Capcom used to publish booklets published for games with behind the seen stories, concept art, manga and whatnot called "Secret Files". I wasn't sure my memory was accurate so I googled Japanese sites just in case and they had that source as well so pretty sure that Remy was a rushed character was in there. Not sure of Guile stuff but I think that was in it as well or from some interview(s) with Japanese game magazine. For the design inspirations, I don't think it was spelled out anywhere but living in Japan and being in the pop culture trend makes it pretty obvious where they are coming from.

[@m0j026]

i fw remy so hard bro, but dude was so unlucky 😭😭 i like his design (red pants are fucking cool) and even his backstory is interesting. He beats up fighters because he believes they represent all that's wrong with the world due to his personal trauma, but at the same time he seems to know that he's full of shit because he questions if he should even be doing what he's doing in most of his lines. I really really want him to come back to sf6, we have like 4 shotos already, 2 guiles can't hurt. Make him more aggressive than guile, or maybe just port nash's moveset from 5 onto him, idc, just give me my french long haired emo boy back

[@firejoe283]

They need to change his hate of fighters because his dad was one, into something like seeking justice against his dad for his sister. I think his moves are already called justice strike or something so it works for me.

[@bloodybeesting775]

He actually already is more aggressive than Guile in terms of playstyle. He can have two booms on screen at once, his flash kick is much faster, and he also has a special move that advances him forwards. With more emphasis on those factors, he's actually a fairly respectable side grade while not sacrificing the defense Guile normally has. Remy's buttons cover interesting angles, allowing him to stuff jump-ins, even in a parry-heavy game like SF3. There is only one issue with his return. Modern Mode. Tell me... How would he have both high and low LOVs mapped? The answer is the same answer they gave for Bison; A sacrifice would need to be made. It's why, if he comes back, he is definitely being made into a motion character, something I'm personally very upset about.

[@theedwardian]

He's Charlie's son. He thought his dad abandoned his family. Little did he know he gave his life in a "top secret mission."

The idea that Remy hates fighting plays into how he’s the opposite of of Guile. You know, a rough looking man who left his family because he is obsessed with fighting. They’re aren’t related in plot, but Remy absolutely is supposed to echo or be reminiscent of a certain family man in the sense of “what would that style of person put his kids through” lol. That seems like a reach until you realize that Sean Matsuda’s whole schtick throughout street fighter 3 is “Ken Masters is a bad teacher.”

O-K makes sense. his sister is currently frozen in a giant icecube at the bottom of a lake that he goes to visit every once in a while? ... what? i hope he comes back just so they can clarify what the hell they were cooking with that plot, plus i do like his design. making him nb would be really neat, even if they didn't street fighter has so few twinkish men he'd be a welcome addition lmfao

it's like they wanted to expand upon that whenever they were getting around to sf4 but sf4 ended up being 10 years later and a prequel and sfv also was a prequel but it was a sequel to the prequel and then they just kinda forgot that he existed at all. actually that's probably exactly what happened

If we have three shotos in Ryu, Ken & Akuma Having Gulie, Nash and Remy in sf6 would be awesome. Even though the first three shoto’s all use the same fighting style they have differences in strengths and personalities that changes their game plans, special effects, combo routes, attack properties and damage values. Doing the same for Gulie, Nash and Remy is definitely possible One thing that should be acknowledged is that having directional Parry’s (high and low) in the game would make it easier for characters like Remy and Sagat perform well if they come back in Street fighter six

Which, then makes it really funny that some random french twink can just use moves signature to two US military servicemen for some fucking reason.

Maybe get rid of the whole "I hate fighting" thing or explain it better. Id say give him a french accent to make him stand out (since hes from France), but people tend to have a hate boner for french people for whatever reason lol. Sure he looks like a KoF character, but I find KoF characters way cooler looking than most SF characters. Really wish Capcom would take more chances on their characters and stop relying on SF2 or the same SF3 guys all the time (when they do decide to use SF3 characters that is lol)

I feel like there are many interesting things to say about Remy and charge partitioning - the difficulties of playing a character who has to hold back or down back in a game where the most important mechanic is that you must tap forward to standing parry. I know you mentioned that SFIII was a particularly difficult title for Remy to appear in, but the reasons for this are quite interesting, mechanically, and made playing Remy at a high level really challenging. Personally I'd love to see him reworked in 6. Something like shorter range projectiles which he can charge to do the multiple ones with different paths, a +ob dive kick eith different arcs/angles, a slightly updated look (non-binary as you suggest, or etc.) and maybe a bit more turquoise finger laser effects. Could definitely work without treading on Guile's toes, especially if they make him a motion character instead of charge. He has some bonkers story, shamefully unfinished and could be a good tie-in for Nash & Guile's story, if fleshed out.

Why does this have so many dislikes??? It's a fine video what.

[@novameowww]

weirdly enough it says it has much fewer dislikes in the video data itself. i think it might be that some people got pronouns jumpscared at the end really. or less likely, it's just one guy who has 70 alternative accounts idk

[@fillername917]

@@novameowww Just got the that part of the video so fucking based actually but besides my opinion that would actually be amazing marketing people would love it.

[@novameowww]

@@fillername917 -we could actually get a non-binary street fighter character who isn't an NPC. NPCs in a fighting games matter even less than NPCs in literally any other genre of game- scratch that, just remembered 5 Seth exists. so theoretical sf6 remy wouldn't even be the first. they still continue to get shafted huh

[@fillername917]

@@novameowww if we got a transfem it would boost sf6 like crazy. Look at what happened the last time we got a transfem. If Bridget didn't happend I wouldn't be writing this comment here and would never get into fighting games so yeah thank you Bridget.

[@TheLaXandro]

I think Remy would make for a good story mode cameo, rather than a fighter. Also, you can make a custom fighter that does Remy things because you have Guile's moveset.

[@SnSinny]

I always need to fill my hope jar that remy will be in SF6 and i never will stop believing that. Great video on the subject btw. maybe one day my wishes will come true and Remy will finally be real.

[@betterbescared1063]

BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNSSSSSSSSSS

[@greatestutuberhd]

Iori is possibly inspired by 70s era David Bowie, and I think it's possible Remy is too by extension

[@nyaxayn7885]

LET BRO BE IN SF6 HE DESERVES IT

[@AnonymousC2218]

Na he doesn't, he deserves to stay in the vault though

[@MadiqZosmolShagatta-Neuman]

Zoning is pretty rough in 3rd strike but at least they gave Remy super low HP to balance.

[@DoneRandomLee]

I'd hope Remy takes Charlie Nash's spot now. Take from Nash to fix Remy's big issues while keeping things people like. People like the low and high sonic booms that can both be on screen. People like their flash kick. His tiger knee dive kick can probably take the place of Nash's jump and suck the life force out of you grab, give Nash's scythe kick and the air scythe kick (I am sure it had a different name). Because I feel with the drive mechanic Nash's gameplay can be fun but he should stay dead and you already got a "other guile" that has people liking the idea of the character

[@AnonymousC2218]

I hope Nash Keeps his spot

[@vonVile]

You forgot the Garou: MOTW Freeman connection to the chart. Remy is more of a copy of him than Iori on design.

[@novameowww]

Given that Garou came out half a year after Third Strike, I highly doubt that that's true. There might even be a chance it's the other way around, though 6 months isn't much time, even for 90's SNK. But he does deserve to be on the chart somewhere because I like him

[@therealgmhere5988]

​@@novameowwwEnd of the day, it can be called a coincidence

[@punkypony5165]

I hope Remy makes it into SF6

[@AnonymousC2218]

I hope he doesn't unless they change his look on his projectile

[@Saskaruto16]

Remy just has so little to work with. Whole new kits are better on new characters, reworked non charge Guile has been done with SFV Nash, and he isn't a long time favorite who was just bad like DJ who deserved a rework. 3S roster has multiple popular characters to add to Sf6 and he's nowhere near getting on that list.

[@TheAmazingSpiderPunk]

Proto-Remy FUCKSSSSS!!

[@kingcrazymf9585]

I say bring him back as Luke's main rival/enemy. They're opposite each other in every single way and it'd give them something else to do besides... existing???

[@eolha]

ratatouille guy lol

[@nerdstudent8852]

I don't know man, sometimes Capcom doesn't really good in designing some new character, like Abel, Rufus, and Remy, meanwhile SNK design for Ash is in another level compared to Remy Yes, Ash is charging character but it fits with his demeanor, relax and deceptive, so you really can't guess his next move, while Remy, he's really need a lot of redesign, too generic in appearance and really bad moveset 😐

THE WORST STREET FIGHTER CHARACTER OF ALL TIME!

[@monsterrebornrexregem7227]

81st subscriber!

[@firejoe283]

Heres a better rewrite for his story. Instead of hating fighters and being hypocritical. Lets go with this: Remy's New Story Remy grows up in Paris, abandoned by his martial artist father. His sister dies, and Remy vows revenge on his father for abandoning them. Remy enters the Street Fighter III tournament, hoping to draw his father out by becoming a renowned fighter. Advancing through the tournament, Remy fights with determination, interacting with various fighters who challenge his single-minded anger. In the final stages, Remy defeats Gill, who provides information about his father's whereabouts as a reward. Following the clues, Remy finds his father’s grave and learns from an elderly caretaker that his father left to protect the family from a criminal syndicate. The caretaker reveals that Remy's father fought the syndicate from the shadows and died in a final act of sacrifice. Remy realizes his anger was misplaced. At his father's grave, Remy decides to honor his father's memory by fighting against injustice, transforming his quest for revenge into a mission of redemption. Remy emerges with a new purpose, ready to make a positive impact and forge a new legacy.

[@hijacked6663]

And he's named after that one rat too

[@cytromancer1692]

This game came out on the 90s btw

[@The_WIll_OF_D99]

dud people just...forget G was a character? he is tied to Q they expanded on the lore not by a lot mostly hints that is supposed to lead going forward. But Q is for sure kept an eye on by capcom and was refenced in SF5

[@knoble1985]

Remy for SF6

[@bahmat]

Nah. That's Guile from Temu.

[@AnonymousC2218]

Remy will always be the Temu of Nash and Guile

[@camokazi1313]

I thought you'd touch on Remi's depressing-ass story.

[@novameowww]

I might someday, along with a bunch of other SF character stories i like

[@dwightblackman5696]

Bikei doesn’t mean “Twink” it means something like beautiful or goodlook

[@novameowww]

yeah i realized that a bit after from another comment. the "bi" in it is the same as "bishonen" which is slightly more twink-adjacent

[@spitfiremanlizerd]

Stop talking like that

[@novameowww]

sure thing boss 🤠

[@Swagster1000-sy3ng]

In the next CVS, Iori should burn Remy’s Hair wig and say “Not in a million years”. Plus, Remy gets thrown into the dumpster with the American Sports Team.
