Name:
Rainbow Mika
Height: 168cm
Weight: 70kg
Blood type: O
Birthday: 15th of March
Country of origin: Japan
Likes: Zangief's pro wrestling philosophy, beach running,
finger pushups, neck bridges
Dislikes: Younger people with no manners
Fighting style: Pro wrestling
Introduction: Here
she is, Miss Rainbow Mika! She's a rookie in the female pro
wrestling circuit. Her real name is Mika Nanakawa.
Bio: A
female pro wrestler with strong aspirations, looking up to
the teacher of her heart, Zangief. She receives a request
from her sponsor, Karin, and stands up against Shadaloo. She
speaks in a casual manner, befitting of a gym girl like
herself.
It might be difficult to tell her facial expressions when
she's wearing the mask, but she's actually pretty emotional.
The "younger people with no manners" part refers
to her first meeting with Ibuki, where they immediately got
off on the wrong foot and never managed to see eye to eye,
but despite that, they ended up infiltrating Shadaloo's base
together. |
Name:
Laura Matsuda
Height: 175cm
Weight: 72kg
Blood type: O
Birthday: 30th of July
Country of origin: Brazil
Likes: Her younger brother Sean, meat dishes, fighting
Dislikes: Boredom, vegetables
Fighting style: Matsuda Jiu-Jutsu (With some personal
freedom added in)
Introduction: A
jiu-jutsu practitioner who can emit electricity and has her
hair combed in this particular style!
Bio: She's
Sean's older sister and a grappling friend of Zangief's.
She's a very free spirit, with a wild side, who enjoys
looking for thrills more than anything. She rarely returns
home to her family, instead traveling around all over the
place. Sean doesn't really like Laura much, but it's not
like Laura doesn't respect these feelings, it's more that
the very possibility has never even entered her head.
Her main characteristics are her voluptuous body and her
extravagant fighting moves, and is very open to strangers
even after just meeting them. She's a very cheerful and
impulsive person, befitting of a Southern American. She's
the successor to the Matsuda Style Jiu-Jutsu (or was
supposed to be anyway), so she develops her moves in actual
battle against any competitors she can find in order to
spread the word of Matsuda Jiu-Jutsu. |
Name:
Vega
Height: 186cm
Weight: 84kg
Blood type: O
Birthday: 27th of January
Country of origin: Spain
Likes: Beautiful things, himself, roses
Dislikes: Ugly things, blood splatter from his victims
Fighting style: Spanish Ninjutsu
Introduction: Ooh,
finally, one of our four kings. It's Master Vega. His hair
is so smooth.
Bio: He
has a very personal sense of aesthetics, and is a violent
narcissist who adores himself. He fights to search for
beauty, and to eliminate ugliness. Within his intelligence,
you can also glimpse madness. He uses Spanish Ninjutsu, and
is a specialist at attacks from the air. His life philosophy
is "beauty is absolute", and notices the
connection between Cammy and Decapre, and tries to draw out
further beauty from them. |
Name:
Rashid
Height: 178cm
Weight: 85kg
Blood type: A
Birthday: 7th of June
Country of origin: Middle east
Likes: New things, movies, friends
Dislikes: Fighting women or children, loading times
Fighting style: Wind, parkour
Introduction: The
main character of the game's general story. He's a youngster
who uses his swiftness to his advantage, and is capable of
controlling the wind.
Bio: He's
a modernistic young man who prefers to remain efficient and
smart rather than getting worked up about things. His
carefree personality is reflected in his parkour-ish
fighting style, but behind his casual way of talking hides a
serious intent to carry out his friend's dying wish. He's
obsessed with collecting all kinds of latest gadgets and new
things. |
Name:
F.A.N.G
Height: 212cm (222cm when standing on his toes)
Weight: Unknown
Blood type: Unknown
Birthday: 2nd of February
Country of origin: Somewhere in Asia
Likes: Experiments, the number 2, Master Bison
Dislikes: Master Bison's enemies, the numbers 1 and 3
Fighting style: Poison Kempo
Introduction: He's
the number 2 of our organization (which I almost forgot...)
Shadaloo! The expert of deadly poisons, Master F.A.N.G!
Bio: He's
self-proclaimed former royalty of a ruined country, and has
been appointed as a new member of Shadaloo's Four Kings. He
douses his own hands in poison, and uses it to fight. His adoration
for M. Bison and will to contribute to Shadaloo puts him at
the very center of the Black Moon plan. Because of this, he
saw red when Rashid's friend betrayed them and finished them
with his poison.
Normally, he speaks like somewhat of a buffoon, but that is
nothing more than an act, and there are moments when his
face will show you a hint of his true abilities. He
considers 2 to be his lucky number, and is obsessed with it
in all situations. |

And below are earlier Street
Fighter V character bios & profile artwork we featured in our previous
article.
Name:
Necalli
Height: 190cm
Weight: 113kg
Blood type: Unknown
Birthday: 11th of January
Country of origin: Unknown
Likes: Strong being's souls
Dislikes: Man-made things, people
Fighting style: Violence fueled by his natural power
Introduction: Scary! He thrashes around with movements of
wild rage! Does he have some sort of connection to the
Satsui no Hado?
Bio: He moves with the objective of consuming strong
people's souls. He corrupts the spirit of those he touches
with his ominous aura, and people are affected through just
being near him (though this is not something Necalli
deliberately causes). Those corrupted by Necalli become like
himself, wild beings seeking to consume strong souls.
When "the time of the hunt" draws near, he
awakens, and moves to where he can sense battles taking
place, in order to consume souls. The overwhelming force of
Necalli when he consumes an opponent's soul is so jarring
that anyone who witnesses it becomes frozen with incredible
fear. Normally, he speaks regular languages, though with
some difficulty, but once he loses himself, his true
strength and horror speak for him. |
Name:
Karin Kanzuki
Height: 162cm
Weight: 59kg
Blood type: B
Birthday: 15th of September
Country of origin: Japan
Likes: Complete victory
Dislikes: People who do not fulfill their duty
Fighting style: Kanzuki Style Martial Arts
Introduction: With
the world in grave peril, she judges Shadaloo as an enemy of
the Kanzuki family and decides to oppose them.
Bio: She
is a highly prideful, strong female martial artist who
declares herself the winner in advance, and at the same time
the head of the Kanzuki family corporation which has
international prominence. She considers herself an enemy of
Shadaloo, and becomes something of a center for the rest of
the fighters to gather around, to battle M. Bison. She's
very prideful, which can be seen as arrogance from other
people's perspective, but she is not an unfeeling person,
and will rush to their aid if anyone she truly cares about
is in peril. Or, she will send her right-hand-man, the super
butler Shibasaki, in her place. |
Name:
Birdie
Height: 216cm
Weight: 230kg
Blood type: O
Birthday: 22nd of August
Country of origin: United Kingdom
Likes: Beer, beef jerkey, food
Dislikes: Kids, cops, hunger
Fighting style: Fighting centered around headbutting and
using chains
Introduction #2: We
already talked about him, but here he is again. This time,
we're talking about his current state.
Bio #2: Besides his older information we already covered...
He eats a lot and swings his chain around! That's all! |
Name:
Ryu
Height: 175cm
Weight: 85kg
Blood type: O
Birthday: 21st of July
country of origin: Japan
Likes: Martial arts in general, Mizu Yōkan
Dislikes: Spiders
Fighting style: A personal fighting style with Ansatsuken at
its roots
Introduction: To
commemorate our 100th profile post, we've got the main
character himself, Ryu. It really couldn't be anyone but
him, right?
Bio: Aiming
to become a "true martial artist", he travels the
world - he's the series' main character. After noticing that
he had the Satsui no Hado, a power rooted in darkness,
inside of him he's been meditating hard to try and confront
it. Just what will Ryu awaken to during his battle against
the ancient warrior Necalli, who consumes souls of the
strong?! |
Name:
Ken
Height: 175cm
Weight: 83kg
Blood type: B
Birthday: 14th of February
Country of origin: U.S.A.
Likes: His family, pasta
Dislikes: Umeboshi, soap operas
Fighting style: A personal fighting style with Ansatsuken at
its roots
Introduction: This is
our main character Ryu's eternal rival, Ken.
Bio: By
gaining his own family that supports him, he's grown even
stronger. Since he's at the very top of a huge American
corporation, he has very little grief and is a bright
person. In this title, he accepts the call from Karin
Kanzuki and works to stop the Black Moon plan from
proceeding, all the while maintaining his promise to have a
rematch with Ryu, who is currently struggling to overcome
the Satsui no Hado that has infected him. |
Name:
Chun-Li
Height: 169cm
Weight: Secret
Blood type: A
Birthday: 1st of March
Country of origin: China
Likes: Grapes, fruits, western sweets
Dislikes: M. Bison, crime, ambiguous people
Fighting style: Chinese Kempo
Introduction: The original heroine of Street Fighter!
"Hmph, all men kneel before me!!"
Bio: After her father was killed by M. Bison, she dedicated
herself to bringing down Shadaloo. She's an investigator for
the ICPO who fights with magnificent kicks. All the while
working her regular cases, she kept chasing the shadow of
Shadaloo until she eventually grouped up with Guile to try
and find the truth behind the organization. When she managed
to discern that the Black Moon plan and the multiple missing
hacker cases were connected to Shadaloo, she dives into
battle against Shadaloo and their Black Moon plan. |
Name:
Zangief
Height: 214cm
Weight: 181kg
Blood type: A
Birthday: 1st of June
Country of origin: Russia
Likes: Wrestling, cossack dance
Dislikes: Projectiles like the Hadoken
Fighting style: A mix of Russian wrestling and American pro
wrestling
Introduction: A
russian hero, the Red Cyclone! His upperclassman at college
was Gorbachev himself.
Bio: He's a huge pro wrestler, with the alias "Red
Cyclone". He looks strong and honestly scary, but he's
big-hearted and has a very kind personality. He has a
personal philosophy that muscles are the supreme, and as he
advances in age, his muscles keep advancing as well.
He's idolized by R. Mika, and is acquianted with Laura, as
well as Rashid's butler Azam. While participating in a
wrestling event in New York together with R. Mika and Alex,
the Black Moon event occured and he was one of the warriors
contacted by Karin to try and bring down Shadaloo. |
Name:
Dhalsim
Height: 176cm (Varies)
Weight: 48kg (Varies)
Blood type: O
Birthday: 22nd of November
Country of origin: India
Likes: Curry, meditation
Dislikes: Sweet things, meat
Fighting style: The hidden arts of Yoga
Introduction: The miracle of India, a Yoga Master. He often
serves as a discussion partner to the other fighters.
Bio: Through
vigorous training, he draws ever closer to divinity. He's an
Indian training sage and a yoga master. Through the miracle
of yoga, he is able to extend his arms and legs, and borrows
the power of the fire god Agni to create flame-based
illusions. As one who has exceeded regular humanity, he
tries to help Ryu overcome his doubts.
Through the arrival of Necalli, who only shows up when the
world is facing a crisis, he predicts the current strife the
world faces and works together with Karin and the others to
stop the Black Moon plan. |
Name:
Charlie Nash
Height: 186cm
Weight: 93kg
Blood type: Unknown
Birthday: Unknown
Country of origin: Unknown
Likes: Nothing in particular
Dislikes: Justice, scotch, M. Bison
Fighting style: Special attacks embedded within his body
Introduction: A
resurrected avenger! How cool. He can teleport, and absorb
projectiles ... Man, I want those abilities, too.
Bio: Guile's best friend, and when he was still alive, a
first lieutenant in the Air Force. He lost his life once,
but for some reason he is back, and moves with the singular
goal of killing M. Bison. He used to be cool, though a bit
of an egghead, with a very strong sense of justice and an
incredibly warm personality, but after facing betrayal he
can no longer trust anyone but himself. He has lost both his
former cool head and his warmness, and is obsessed with
nothing but revenge, leaving him with a very cold
personality. |
