Introduced in Street Fighter Alpha 2, Sakura was born from the franchise’s need to have more stylishly appealing characters. Developed to have a fangirl crush and obsession with Ryu, it became easier to justify her Shotokan Karate fighting style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Her move set did differ drastically from the traditional Shoto-fighters Ryu and Ken and had its share of pros and cons. As a fun and adorable Tomboy, Sakura has grown up into a more serious contender in her own right and is often selected by competitive players in the fighting game community. Bringing her back alongside Karin would be great for more female gender diversity and mirror all of the Ryu-Ken rivalries that run rampant in the franchise’s history. By the way Capcom, it’s time for Ken Masters to get a fangirl too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That is our list of the 10 classic Street Fighter characters that should come to Street Fighter 6<\/strong>. Honorable mentions go out to Oro, Rose, and Sodom. It should also be noted that Gouki \/ Akuma is a no-brainer and is almost 100% sure to come along sometime in the future, possibly along with Evil Ryu. Other characters that will most likely become playable with DLC are M. Bison \/ Vega and Sagat.
