Street
Fighter V Concept Art & Bios For SFEX's Allen Snider,
Skullomania, C. Jack & Garuda
|
|
Capcom's
CFN Portal posted bios and Street Fighter V concept artwork for the
rest of Street Fighter EX(1)'s original cast, featuring none other
than Allen Snider, Skullomania, Cracker Jack, and Garuda. Just like last
time, also enjoy some weirdly entertaining commentary by Capcom's Private Nakagawa and
NIN.
Name:
Allen Snider
Height: 179 cm
Weight: 81 kg
Blood Type: 0
Birth Date: March, 21
Home Country: USA
Likes: Frogs
Dislikes: Electrical Appliances
Private
Nakagawa: The former strongest karateka in the
USA. However, he was eliminated in the first match of
the All-American Martial Arts Tournament, though his
opponent was Ken Masters. Ken said to him, "After all,
you're only a big fish in a small pond!" [Literally,
"A frog in a well," taken from the Japanese
proverb, "A frog in a well does not know the great
sea." That explains his dislike of frogs, translated as
"being called a big fish" in English
adaptations until now.] Misinterpreting his words,
Allen decided to become "The Strongest Fish in the
World." ["the strongest frog in the
world."] He's a constantly curious and likable
person. Since his loss to Ken, he pays attention to even his
move's naming. And even today, we have our Senior
colleague's comment!
NIN:
Oh, sideburns! I remember I thought of making
him a very aggressive projectile character. Subsequently, I
thought it would be nice having a foreign karateka.
Next up, we
have the Las Vegas bouncer, Cracker Jack!
Private
Nakagawa: He's the bouncer who's confident
in the abilities of his arms. He's an enthusiastic man who
is also kind and empathetic. I want to be like him when I
grow up (unfortunately it's too late for that). |
Name:
Jack
Height: 189cm
Weight: 98kg
Blood type: B
Birthday: June 14th
Country of Origin: USA
Likes: Baseball, Soccer, Alcohol from different countries
Dislikes: Crowding together
Private
Nakagawa: The Las Vegas bouncer who is said to
be the number one in the organization known as the
"Crackers." In order to live a life free from
fighting rivals, he disappeared from the organization. He's
currently traveling the world as a freelance bouncer. His
prized possession is his wooden baseball bat.
NIN:
I compare his character to a type of man's man,
I love his behavior, plus his voice, and I think he's
pretty cool. However, Mr. Nishitani, is like an
endless launching uppercut combo which continues to show
self-restraint ... That's me when I'm angry, LOL!
Now we move
on to arguably the most popular character in the EX series.
Everyone's favorite super hero, Skullomania!
Private
Nakagawa: Woooah, he's pretty awesome! Lord
F.A.N.G! We should help establish this type of mysterious
man here at Shadaloo! What, he's a hero?! |
Name:
Skullomania
Height: 163cm
Weight: 62kg
Blood type: A
Birthday: May, 19
Home Country: Japan
Likes: Protecting his family, World peace
Dislikes: Evil, Working Overtime
Private
Nakagawa: The salaryman named Saburo
Nishikoyama just couldn't find a way to get ahead in his
life. During the Hero Show held for the customers at his
department store, he was forcibly made to perform to attract
more people's attention. In doing so, he felt an
indescribable passion which awakened a sense within him. The
enthusiasm in his heart made him believe he was the one to
protect the world, thus he began to compete against the
top-ranked martial artists on an even playing field. After
all, is that not what men of mystery are meant to do? Even
today, we have a comment from our Senior colleague!
NIN:
He was born of this initial desire: "Skeletons,
we want a design that uses bones." Though his original
rough draft design was named "Rubberman," maybe it
was because his full bodysuit resembled rubber...?
Finally, to
round out the EX1 characters, we have Garuda, who is
connected to the Satsui no Hado!
Private
Nakagawa: Satsui no Hado and Psycho Power are
akin to each other, and the billowing energies of darkness
are seemingly alive in the world. |
Name:
Garuda
Height: Unknown
Weight: Unknown
Blood Type: Unknown
Birthday: Unknown
Country of Origin: Japan?
Likes: Unknown
Dislikes: Unknown
Private
Nakagawa: A demon who is burdened by the souls
of martial artists who have been absorbed by the Satsui No
Hado. Negative emotions, such as anger, are the dark
energies it's composed of. He was once a hero who saved his
village, before becoming a demon himself.
NIN:
Anyhow, he has blades hidden all over his body.
Cool! That was the impression we had about his concept.
Initially focusing on the blades, I believed
one hit would be "crushing!" since it was
something I felt was trivial, which I hated, but once we
decided to test out his multi-hitting super, I started to
feel more comfortable with him. |
