Street Fighter: The Animated Series

Show Summary

Aired: 1995 - 1997
Show Type: Animated
Country of Origin: US

Street Fighter: The Animated Series was featured on the USA Network's Cartoon Express and Action Extreme Team. Based mostly off of the Street Fighter movie and the fighting game Street Fighter II, the series follows the events after the movie. William F. Guile leads a team of fighters named Street Fighter. Street Fighter's mission is to fight against international crime and terrorism. Usually, Guile and crew have to deal with Shadoloo, led by the insane General M. Bison.

Aside from Guile, the Street Fighter team consists of Blanka, Chun-Li, Ryu, Ken, Dhalsim, E. Honda, Fei Long, Cammy, Dee Jay, and T. Hawk. Bison's minions in Shadoloo consist of Zangief, Balrog, Vega and Sagat. The dark Ansatsuken master, Akuma, initially from Super Street Fighter II Turbo, was also featured.

While many feel that the cartoon was much better than the movie, some fans and critics thought the show was campy and borrowed from G.I. Joe. Street Fighter ran for two seasons (October 21, 1995 - May 14, 1997) with a total of 26 episodes.

:0 Wow! I used to always play the game of this on Super Nintendo when my cousins came over... My favourite character was Blanka (not because of his moves or anything, just because he looked the weirdest) My sister was always Chun-Li and my cousin was Ryu (most of the time)... I haven't ever seen an episode of the show though... I don't think it was ever aired in Aus.
