Chun-Li's Full Story Leading into Street Fighter 6
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лип 2024
- Chun-Li has been gaining fans and kicking foes since the earliest days of Street Fighter 2, and since The Strongest Woman in the World is a lock for Street Fighter 6, we figured it'd be a good time to recap her story and consider where things might go from here.
Upon researching Chun's journey thus far, we found that she doesn't tend to get all that fair a shake when it comes to the canon developed through the games.

Chun is basically Street Fighter's Vegeta. #2 to the poster child, acknowledged to be strong as shit, but loses just about every fight anyway.
The word you're looking for is "Jobber".
That’s not a bad comparison, yeah
@@EventHubs I look forward to Chun Li being upscaled in Street Fighter 6. As a Kung Fu Master, she needs to be on her father’s level of fighting prowess.
@@EventHubs Based on the Street Fighter lore, I think Chun Li has the potential to eventually reach Gen’s level of fighting prowess. However, Chun Li must understand that her past tendency to rush into a fight stems from being hotheaded and not considering the potential long-term implications of her actions. Most Street Fighter fans know Chun could never match Bison in a one-on-one fight. Perhaps she could train with Rose and master Soul Power.
@@EventHubs VEGETA WAS NEVER NUMBER 2 UNTIL CRAPPY SUPER. VEGETA FANBOYS ARE DELUSIONAL.
It's a shame how Chun-Li been treated in the Street Fighter story she's more involved in the stories than Ryu but how they portray her in games is sad she's the first lady of fighting games and self proclaimed the "Strongest Woman In The World" but they make her like she's not capable of doing things of her own I hope she get the justice she deserves in 6 and future installments especially since she's a martial arts master now.
I agree with you, SNK have done the same with mai
Almost every capcom fighting characters lacks depth, Chun Li is no different. I feel SNK and NetherRealm put more time in developing stories for their main characters. Even some of their side characters have more stories than Street Fighter characters. Capcom just don't care much about story element. Look at Guile as well no character development for a very long time.
@@musabjunaidi nah not at all snk have some of the best characters in FG the AOF and FF characters are the back bone of kof but theres been zero character development in fact they're now just comic relief which is pretty annoying. Ryo and Terry are 2 of the 4 snk heroes and they haven't had any development mai is the female face of snk again no development
@@thekid8224 KOF isn't focused on FF and AOF sadly. Their story will continue in their universe. SNK finally booting FF will start the story of the characters in that series. Hopefully they will do the same for Art of Fighting as well.
I have no problem with Chun Li getting her down to her feet and portrayed her like a hapless Frodo because the enemy is more powerful than her but SFV pretty much miscasted her chance to take down Shadowloo.
That fight against Vega in the anime movie was totally badass. Real cool stuff.
I had a lot of fun re-watching it. When I was a kid we talked about it because Vega swears and Chun was just in the shower, but looking at it through more mature eyes it's super well put together and the stakes are really high. I think it's Chun's greatest fight.
@@johnguerrero4546 For sure.
It is even better with the original Japanese soundtrack
Badassest :) Everything is great in it - the suspense, the fight itself, the music, but also the fact it is done "realistically", meaning there are no "flashes" or "magic", and although she won, she ends up in the hospital because of the injuries, which really would be expected in such encounter. The most realistic unrealistic fight there is on the screens :)
Too bad after that she got side lined for the rest of the plot but the movie managed to portray her the strong female character we know today
This was a fantastic write up. Her role in the sf5 was awful to sit through. Such a great character deserves so much better. Your ideas for her in sf6 are awesome.
Thanks! Hope they do some interesting stuff with her.
The SF5 story was garbage from the start, but yes, Chun Li has always been this disrespected me-too-guys! squeaky wheel. Strongest woman in the world, international detective/cop. Never does anything of importance in any story.
Capcom in general has always half-assed the SF story, either by design or by lack of creativity. They have zero decent ideas for how to handle their own cast of characters. They screwed with their own roster in the 1994 SF live action movie.
None of the games really attempted to link the characters until SF4. Only the animated movies made attempts and only 1 of them mostly succeeded (the first one). The SF4 story had some potential but is still paper thin with the most generic anime sequences. The SF5 story is a piss-poor joke that tries to merge hastily scribbled static panels with a collection of contrived character path-crossings, dumb dialog, zero weight, and a stupid chess-piece gimmick.
And the thing is, in many ways I prefer the SF universe over a competitor's like MK. But the MK teams have always understood storytelling (however bad a given game in the series was), whereas Capcom could care less about that and gave the SF fanbase crap when they bothered to try. Capcom didn't produce a gameplay movie or mildly coherent story that involved most of their characters until over 2 decades after SF2 came out.
That scene where Chun Li sparring with Li Fen, is really beautiful. Hope to watch more of it
That just gets me excited for SF7 or SF8, when Li Fen is playable
@@jerfuhrer2581 she’s gonna be the next chun li no question
@@the_ideal_grease5565 that would be interesting
It's crazy. Out of all her costumes, they never gave her the animated movie jammies.
You're super right. I'm also mad I never thought of that until you said it just now
@@EventHubs I'm glad you and a few others agree. I feel like we got scammed with her SF5 jammies. Come on Capcom. You know what we want.
Or her SFII fit with the Daisy dukes and orange top
or the movie costume.
Because everyone passed out right before that scene.
As iconic as Chun is, she really does get her butt whopped all throughout the series! They need to do her right this time in SF6
We definitely need more chun vs vega moments! It was painful to play through a shadow falls and watch her get her ass beat at every turn lol 😅
It was honestly retarded they had the player play as BISON, the fucking villain, in that Chun Li vs Bison match in SF 5. It's like they forgot the good guys are supposed to win.
Yeah when I played I was like: bruh they really humbling her for no reason why they do that one of my favorite female characters like that
One time Chun Li was coming out of a store and saw a little boy crying. She said "don't cry little boy, you can become anything you want if you believe!" and then she gave him $100. "Thanks!" said the boy "now I'm going to pursue my dream!" and that boy grew up to become Shigeru Miyamoto.
Damn, canon?!
That idea you had for her in 6 is going to be 10 times better than whatever they end up giving her in the game.
Fingers crossed they just steal it then!
Chun-Li is the damn Wonder Woman of the Street Fighter verse....
The fight against Vega is honestly one of my favorite fights in all of anime. Brutal yet beautiful
I never noticed how often she's beaten. But I fully understand it. I love the story concept you've come up with for her. We'll see how they go
She’s an icon, she’s a legend and she is the moment! Now come one now! 🥋 🦵🏻
I'm certain that you put more thought into the story of SF6 than Capcom has.
The disrespect against Chun-li will not be forgiven!
I'm sitting in the front of the class for this one. 👨🏾🏫
That was a great summary of the Chun story! Looking forward to the next video in the series!
Justice for Chun Li.
Chun-Li might have a rivalry with A.K.I
Chun-Li is definitely one of the best computer game characters in history...
I completely agree. It is disappointing watching your favorite character getting beat up or rescued way too often. I wish Capcom treat her legacy with more respect for SF6.
*The Perfect Woman Doesn’t Ex-*
@1:01, him spinning in so slow is comedy gold lmao
Great video, thx! ;)
yo she picked up a couch on her own? even a small one is heavy on its own, thats dope
Excellent review about Chun-Li's entire story, including her origins. But I find it really hilarious for how you called M.Bison, "Michael Bison," instead of "Master Bison," as that's what the actual abbreviation of M stood for as his full name in the Eng version of SF.
Michael Bison or Mike Bison was Balrog's actual name for the original Japanese version, when Capcom were exporting SF2 to the US and other countries. In the 90s, USA Capcom were deeply concerned for any lawsuit from the former famous boxer: Mike Tyson. Which was why Capcom of America had to switch names for the bosses characters.
Cracking video 👌
Glad you enjoyed it
1:01 I forgot how hilarious the cartoon series was.
"chun will be older than ever" -- how dare you
Chun li is beautiful
She is in her 50s now. Wow!
She must bathe in the blood from babies, because jesus!
eventhubs idea for chun's S.F.VI story (IF it comes true) sounds like in a sense potential canon version of shadow lady from the M.V.C series
....I would read this Street Fighter fan fic.
Some details you forgot to mention..
Juri got the upper hand coz chun li got distracted by the crying kid. But they are evenly matched before that. In the trailer juri got the upper hand again coz chun li got distracted by the helicopter.. Chun Li always needs to be distracted. LOL.
Rashid won coz chun li was obviously still hurt after her fight with bison.
My problem with capcom is they always use her to make the new characters instantly popular. C. Viper / Juri / Rashid for example. I’m guessing the new character who’s like a female fang will be her rival again.
Juri was dominant even before Chun got distracted. She was easily blocking the kicks and grappled Chun so she could whisper in her ear. The trailers aren't canon so why bring it up? Chun-Li lost to Birdie in SFV btw. She was never strong in canon, the "strongest woman in the world" line is a self proclaimed title, she never earned it.
@@blackout1524 Juri was obviously reading Chun Li’s fighting Capacity with her eye and waiting for a moment to take the upper hand and grab her which Chun Li easily escaped blasting her with kikoken while in mid air. The trailer is just an another example of her getting distracted from a fight. Regarding the fight with birdie, He needs to shine in his own story. Chun Li already beat him before in Alpha Series. Karin lost to birdie also in that story. Birdie may look stupid but He’s definitely not weak. He’s hired by Shadaloo, so meaning they acknowledge his capabilities. I read a SFIV Canon Story.. He’s Tier 5 in that list same tier as Adon, Balrog, Cammy, Zangief, T. Hawk, Dhalsim, Alex and Eagle. It is even stated that Birdie is powerful enough to stop the Dolls assault on him using whole train parts (this says much about his raw strength)
Canon or not the “strongest woman in the world” will be a label forever attached to her.. that doesn’t mean Chun Li can’t be defeated, she is no Ryu, Ingrid or Rose.
@@dreamboxcollectibles73 The eye wasn't reading her moves, pause the video and you'll see.
Trailers aren't Canon. Chun li fan boys always resort to Non-canon material.
Birdie never beat Karin he lost and gets causing kicked around by her in SFV. Meanwhile Chun lost the fight like the weak fighter she is.
Chun didn't earn that title and Capcom knows it, thats why she always taking L's. She spends more time chasing M. Bison than actually training.
So what does the eye does? Every attack she does is recorded. I guess we have diff intepretation on how it works. LOL
The way I see it Capcom uses her as a tool to make new characters instantly popular. Do u really think if Juri beats the likes of Karin or Birdie in her first appearance she’ll be popular as she is now? Nope! New characters are always pitted against strong ones. I know It’s hard to admit it, but it is what it is.
@@blackout1524 There's a few hints from capcom. SSFIV Chun Li's rival battle is most likely canon, meaning she beat Juri. In Chun Li's bio, it says she EARNED the title strongest woman in the world.
I don't even play street fighter but I know Chun as the first lady of fighting games
As long as they don't revolve her story around Bison and Shadowlaw in 6, idc, been seeing the same exact story for the 30 years. I know Bison is "dead" but now Capcom saying he might still be alive
Its a game dey do what dey want to make money the present generation does not know about the last 30 years dey believe now that a man can be a female so this generation is different...
@@HuemanSmoke sad but true, best thing to do is see what happens
Since this is years after 3, doubt Bison’s comin back
@@Mr.2Dirty I hope not, I like Bison but its time to see new villians
5 definitely could've handled her better with how she doesn't get to do much outside her fight with f.a.n.g(who already got thrashed by a pissed rashid wanting revenge for his friend being melted/a doll nearly dropping him in an engine.) as she does rush into battle too much(not z fighter levels of dumb over reliance on power titles but definitely a noticeable flaw compared to other street fighter women that could arguably be viewed as "stronger" and seemed to be intended as her big flaw in the alpha games.).
and feels some parts of it could've been handled better like gen(actually for it's flaws like them meeting in street fighter vs. darkstalkers one more time instead of a lame death to akuma in 5,though did like his last words haunting akuma with taunting.),4 as a whole(a lot of that game felt like filler for some characters,glorifying the new characters or it at the last second was put before 3 with that short.) or fighting m. bison with/before ryu.
as i love chun li in the animated movie with how she helped stop shadaloo foreshadowing her strength throughout(just wish we saw her meet ryu & ken/helped them fight m. bison but realistically made sense and was still a badass fight beating the daylights out of vega through a wall/throwing an entire couch at him.) and protecting her adoptive children from urien.
that honestly to me is more the main character than either ryu(almost like a battle couple with how much they've been in crossovers despite no romantic moments at all just her admiring him in early works/enjoying their company.) or guile and could handle the character interactions better as for 6 i'd love to see more of her training li fen and defend her title properly against g & gill/whatever other threat is in the game.
Or maybe she is SF's Gohan? She only cared about becoming stronger to avenge her father, then to bring Bison to justice. Other than that, she doesn't seem to care about titles or even about fighting.
Myself? I have nothing against her being a reluctant fighter and returning back to her hard earned, peaceful life once everything is over.
But I can understand why some fans would her to be Ryu's equal in relevance.
"It was Tuesday" = Savage
Should do a shot game everytime "the strongest woman in the world" is said
Perfect chance for a shadow lady costume
❤CHUNLI AND TIFA MIS FAVORITAS
Great video 👍. I'm glad you (as well as me and a bunch of others) see the error Capcom keeps making with Chun-li in this series.
I mean this company basically has the Wonder Woman of fighting games in their pocket and yet still have no idea what to do with her 😕. I'm hoping Capcom is watching this video and is taking steps to make her a prominent, main power house in SF6 as she is and should've always been.
2 of Tekken 8's brand new characters are BUDDHA (as in the BUDDHA from history aka 3rd eyes/enlightenment/nirvana dude) & JAREKO. BUDDHA is a brand new MISHIMA character & he will also act as THE ORIGIN to why the mishimas have electricity power in them & also how the electric god fist came to be. The way Buddha fights will of course be very graceful & poetic in his movements which reflects who he is as a person. And yes, Buddha is pretty much a top tier character in tekken 8.
Jareko will be a character using the krav maga martial arts. He will be the first ever HYBRID grappler character in tekken. :P OOPS. So sorry for 1 of the major spoilers.... HAHAHAHAH :P
I see that you have some scenes from the 1995 Street Fighter Animated Series on The USA Cartoon Express' Action Hour.
When I was a child, I loved playing Street Fighter 2 as Chun li, and she remained my main years later at Street Fighter 4. I never paid attention to the story modes. Well, it's sad to see that she's been done dirty like this, but I'm not surprised. Japanese men aren't ones to know how to write female characters.
And the real irony is she was the reason character of main villain M.Bison and Shadaloo organization was created. To give her a reason to be in the SF tournament.
According to Akiman(character creator) that they "wanted Street Fighter II to be more entertaining than its predecessor. That also helps explain how Chun-Li came to be. Having a female character in the game completely changes the game's dynamic, *she brightens up the entire palette. We needed a reason for her to fight, and so an evil empire [of M. Bison] came to mind. "* He also said: "To be honest, I spent some time worrying about putting *Chun-Li, the heroine*, into such a plain setting. Ordinarily, you don't see women participating in global martial arts tournaments."
And what happened after that? as long as her character was needed they did justice to her character. And when she was no longer needed, they completely ruined *the heroine* 😒. Fans want her to be in SF3, they(one more time) give her a story, make her strong, let her beat Urin and all that, but that was it. After that it was all about ryu ryu ryu and ryu. No one else, not even Ken.
They did her so dirty that I as a fan stopped watching any video related to her from Capcom. If only they had given her a better story in SF5, a little better 😒.
Don't know what they're going to do to her in SF6. And to be honest after SF5 I really don't care.
Interesting? Source?
Michael Bison 🥴
:D
Very good chun li picture.
Where ？

Chunli es mi personaje favorito. Lastima que Capcom la trate tan mal!! Deberían tratarla mejor considerando lo icónico y revolucionario del personaje. Ella es la mujer más fuerte ❤️ me dolió que perdiera contra Juri y contra Rashid.
Where can I watch those SF aftermath episodes? I’ve never seen chun li do a kikosho in the animated series
It would be a nice plot twist if she turns into evil and return back as the good guys to see her character progress. This reminds me of shadow lady of Marvel vs Capcom.
You're putting to much emphasis on to a title. Everyone respects Chun-li as the strongest woman and has proven time and again how capable she is both in and out of gameplay and story. Feats such as defeating Bison and Gen are not as simple as you portrayed them in your explanation. On top of that even the other heros in the story lean on each other in order to improved, get stronger, and survive. Best example is the relationship between Guile and Nash that you placed in comparison. The two were like brothers as well as a student and mentor. When they interact with Chun about "not going alone" was a reminder that not even the Strongest Woman is invincible. While the idea of Guile stopping Chun from helping Nash was a point to several validations on this. Nash didn't beat Bison, he died in that fight and failed when Bison got back up again. On top of this, Nash was consumed by a hate that Guile new he couldn't help Nash with and had to let him go into that fight.
To call her a Damsel in distress is also false, as despite losing fights the closest she comes to death has nothing to do with her being captured or forced into a weakened position. Her rescues normally come in from her working solo and expending so much energy to survive in the first place.
To further state why this comes off as a weak discussion. She is being moved to a mentor role, which isn't an easy one. Taking her life experiences this can create plenty of drama for her and Lei Fen. Where she can have to struggle with a more maternal relationship with her or finding herself in a supportive role for the new character. Chun has always been legendary and to measure her power through a win rate when power scaling always becomes an issue in combat story line with supernatural abilities Chun Li has more character and a stronger story than most female characters even today.
I agree, i never felt that chun was underused, honestly i wish they did with the newcomers from 3 like sean and makoto
Nah Chun Li was done FILTHY lmao. We're taking about THE WOMAN, MS. Fighting game girl herself, with a prestige that not many characters could ever have, and we're putting as much emphasis on the title as much as the series itself does (which is alot), and in that sense, this "strongest woman" credibility really leaves alot to be desired. Everyone respects Chun Li in her verse, I guess, but I don't cause they don't really give me a reason to. She hasn't proven anything idk what you're talking about, she's been either sidelined or jobbing out, barely any accomplishments.
She was always set up to be the big main paladin on the front lines taking down Bison along with Guile and Cammy, chasing this man down for her entire life only to show us that she was never ever gonna be on Bison's league in the first place??? Foh capcom. You're gravely underestimating how important feats and wins are in a story heavily involving combat to solve problems so that we can take this character seriously, and Chun li barely does anything noteworthy like I said, in SFV's case the only wins she got was what? Fang? Lmao.
Having Chun li rely on team work is one thing, but they even fucked her over in that too, giving the W to Ryu. RYU. Which was never his fight. So this teamwork thing is moot because I guess the writers never really intented to narratively reward her anyways. And she is ABSOLUTELY a damsel in distress, she jobs out a concerning number of times, forced into a weak position and has to be saved or else she dies, that's a damsel moment, it ain't rocket science. She can move on being a mentor I guess but not without a bitter taste in many's mouth.
@@yungmuney5903 I'm gonna keep this simple.
1) as far as titles go, Chun Li is the strongest Female. Not the strongest in the world. If we were to remove the female aspect then the title would in fact be just that a title.
2)yes, it sucks that sf5 retcons who actually defeats Bison in the end, but let's face it. A lot of the story gets retconned making a lot of inconsistencies. Fighting game stories are built that way in a number of ways. Look at Tekken and everything surrounding Jun Kazama (and the Kazama bloodline). How ever as Bison does die a multiple occasions, and on top of that interpol/ the U.S. Air Force aren't going to mark down "Civilian in White Gi" as the actual hero, Chun of course is given credit as she is head of the Anit-Shadoloo case.
3) the L's she does take are either in relation to story or plot progression. If you want to say she was done Filthy, I've got bad news. She was set up to fail from the beginning. As one of the three big faces of SF (Ryu, Ken, Chun) out of the three Ken and Chun are the three with the biggest presence that having her being beaten doesn't end the story. If it was Ken, yes Ryu might take action but Chun is busy with Shadoloo and in no way worried about S.I.N. If Ryu loses to Juri...well that's that, they get the data needed for the Hado and the ultimate weapon is now in S.I.N's hands. Bare in mind we can technically say the same about Ken losing how ever apperantly since Ken can be considered having an incomplete version of the Hado (since he doesn't go so far as to be corrupted by it) it makes sense they would want Ryu. Meaning between the three, to gain/set threat levels Chun is the most likely targeted. As she is recognized as being the strong and having a presence in global defense (with or without beating Bison).
If you have little respect for her because she loses that's on you. Most of the time someone beats her, the person is nearly inhuman. Bison, Juri, etc. If L's matter than the ones who give it to her matter as well. Chun Li is the strongest woman, with loads of life experience that should be passed on to the next gen of characters coming in. Ryu should be there as well to help newer fighters understand the darkness that comes from looking for power. Point is, you can say it leaves a bitter taste in your mouth but I say it's fine as the series itself can still recognize her as the legend she is...and not what ever the hell that live action garbage of a film was claiming she was. She has been on deaths door, survived and continued to fight regardless of the odds, she didn't just say "damn I suck" she kept fighting.
yes again the retcon robbed her but again fighting game stories be like that in the worst of times.
@@DudesPlayingVidGames I just don't understand how you can justify one of the MOST iconic characters of Street Fighter never doing anything notable except to make other characters look strong. Wake up. It's because she's a woman and the writers are sexist
Alpha 2 says those were her final tears ever, but that doesn’t explain Super Puzzle Fighter 2 Turbo.
I thought M. Bison’s first name was Mary! That’s why he abbreviated the “M” in his name! There’s nothing wrong with Michael Bison, now if he told everyone his name is Mary Bison he couldn’t be an international organised crime Grandmaster. Just trust me it’s Mary Bison (it’s like how everyone knows Suge Knight but if he used his real name Marion Knight his street cred goes down, John Wayne shared the same girl’s name Marion as Suge Knight)
haha
Ok one thing you need to understand about characters is they don't all need to follow the same path. Chun Li does not need an inner struggle. Her path about being a cop and a teacher is perfect. It just needs a few tweaks.
They don't want her to outshine any of the men. Final Fantasy 7 doesn't shy away from letting the likes of Tifa have the spotlight and beating some ass, I think it's time Capcom does the same for Chun
The way i see, other titles in the francise let it slightly open, but overal you can work chun-li story in a somewhat favorable light as they're pretty ambiguous.
The one that really did Chun-Li dirty (or so to say) is SFV, with it's train wreck of epic proportions story mode.
I remember seeing some time ago a video called "wasted plotential" of SFV that offer a way more satisfying story that what SFV gave us.
Edti: here's the video: ua-cam.com/video/Y_2LL7TmZOA/v-deo.html
@capcom should watch this
I love you Chung Li
Holy F*CK i actually didn't knew about the Bruce Lee thing, damn
Maybe I misses it. Lol what Bruce Lee part?
@@Saxandfifths Chun Li was inspired hy Bruce Lee. It's in her official lore ^^
Bison's second in command: THONG
finally someone who spoke about the inconsistent history that chun li has, despite the title she has she is often defeated either by her own bad decisions or because she had to be the helpless princess to be saved at that moment, in perspective c-viper is a version of what chun li should be, a strong woman with judgment and insight who makes smarter decisions more often than dumb ones, jury has gained the popularity she has because she is basically a dark version of chun li who also makes better decisions and that as far as I remember in its history has only 2 critical defeats. Chun Li is one of the most misused characters in stories because everything she does does not reflect her title or even her profession. I hope to see her shine in the next title.
considering that capcom has several generations of designers/drawers/writers what do you expect? No other country cab match capcom wako loko

The story that this video proposes sounds a bit like One Piece, which is great. The villains get power via political power and become the authority themselves (like the world government). Regarding the organization g belongs to, I think they could do that, but I would like for it to not be cartoonishly evil whatsoever, they should think themselves as the "justice" but actually do things that are not good for several people. I agree with that story for the character in the video. I think the organization g belongs to wanting to take power for the sake of "upholding justice" sounds great. I would also propose that for later instalments, the villain organizations are also the world governments themselves but one of them wants to eradicate non-fighters, and the one that follows that one chronologically has convinced the vast majority of the world population (non-fighters) that fighters (and that includes Chun Li, for sure) are evil and must be eradicated, for this latter story, among their files would be someone that isn't precisely a fighter, like C. Viper. Ryu, Guile, Chun Li, Ken and the other people from the roster and past rosters are hunted down by the one world government (this means that interpol and UN peacekeeping are part of that world government as their world police and world military branches respectively and so are actively hunting down fighters, obviously including the ones I mentioned), and then the storywriters can take it from there.
My coworker DreamKing loves One Piece. Will have to share this with him
@@johnguerrero4546 Great! The usual stories in fighting games and a lot of other media stories is protagonists trying to bring down a criminal organization or a cabal/secret society of sorts, seeing protagonists having to confront the government itself like in One Piece, Firefly/Serenity or FFVII is a breath of fresh air that is not usually explored in fiction.
With Shadaloo done, no need for Chun Li. Let her student take over. :)
My favorite video game character of all time. But it was very disapointing how among one of the most popular video game characters of all time yet capcom right out did her so wrong in SFV. It's one thing if she's beaten by Bison though I'm not a fan of that either. But when she was beaten by Rishid (yeah she still recovering from her loss from Bison) But then for her to be beaten by Birdie of all people you don't get much more insulting then that. I'm not sure I like the story of her basically being on the bad side in SF6, cause i think she would think of the/her children before her devotion to justice. But they really need to start showing the girl some respect.
0:12 which game is that shot from? I'm assuming Marvel Vs. Capcom: Infinite?
The Chun with Wesker is from Teppen, the card came that came out like 2-3 years ago.
I agree. Here's to hoping they figure out what to do with her 30 YEARS after creating her character.
People told me his name is similar to Orion but, I always referred to him as urine.
Noone gonna talk about how they called him Michael Bison?
Honestly, most of the problems with the handling of Chun-Li are post SF IV. She was treated a lot better in the media before SF IV, such as the badass fight scene in the SF II animated movie.
With SF IV, first they made her look bad to hype up the newcomer Juri at the time, then there was that awful storymode in SF 5 that basically made her look weaker than ever. I think the writer of the SSFIV OVA and the SF 5 story is the same. I honestly think this guy hates Chun-Li and has it out for her. It's ridiculous how badly she is treated.
But you do have good ideas here and Chun-Li has potential to be shown for greater things. I just don't really trust Capcom's writing team anymore.
Good summary! Not really important but since you always call her "Chun". Her name is still spelled in older romanizations. There are two recommended methods today:
1) With syllabification: Chun-li (not capitalize the L)
2) Without syllabification: Chunli
So her given name is Chunli, not just Chun. Her surname is unknown.
Do a Rose in sf6 speculation story
0:15 Which game is this?
I don't even play Street Fighter (my reflexes aren't geared for fighting games), but I agree that Capcom's writers were betraying her apart from the '94 animated movie.
I'm on the bandwagon regarding your daring story idea for her role in SF6.
strong women doesn’t have to mean physically. i actually like how they did with her
My mom's argument for the reason she loses a lot is "just because she is the strongest woman in the world doesn't mean she's the best fighter"
What game is at 0:11?
Weren’t Ryu and ChunLi a couple back then? Imagine how they are going at it…
I never realized how many L’s Chun Li has taken over the years
She puts the L in Chun-Li
great thumbnail we need a chun li skin with your thumbnail chun li all was haves her hair in two buns i hope we get a skin with her hair down cause we never seen her with her hair down.
3:50 title name?
That's SF4
Every other aspect except her losses in 5 are fine.
Hmm maybe have Gen transfer all his Chi over to Chun Li as he dies, and that power makes Chun Li into a female Akuma/Gouki.
No need to fix, because Street Fighter's story in general has been full of holes, errors, barebones, and retcons since Alpha 1.
The only solution is to give the franchise the RE-treatment and remake everything to improve and flesh-out the whole lore.
It’s wild how much she gets her ass kicked.. like.. wtf
In game as a gamer Chun Li is my crush that I always try to play and she respects me. Cute and beautiful Chun Li. If Chun Li was real I would hug her so tight not to tight but you get what I mean. Capcom I'm glad you created my waifu Chun Li. Shit tomorrow I'm going to play around with my classic old school waifu Chun Li. Her wedding, nostalgia and regular classic outfit is my favorite. Street Fighter 6 is gonna be lit because October 7th 2022 through October 10th I'm playing as my waifu Chun Li and I don't want anyone playing her besides me. Yeah play Kimberly, Cammy, Juri or any other female fighter that's new in Street Fighter 6 beta but not Chun Li because she's mine and mine only😡🤣
Did u say michael bison lol thats not his name the m stands for master bison

The strongest woman in the world gets her ass kicked quite often
Go to time 0:08 REyOu
ffs no single "chun" only word for her name. chun-li is her first name, while internet rumour her last name is chang or Lee.
I mean I guess people would be pretty confused
Just make her Ryu's love interest
Just because she is “the world’s strongest woman” does not mean she cannot lose. Also most of the fighters who beat her are men
Haruno Sakura: I feel you Chun!
Ashley Graham: Me too
Being the strongest woman in the world does not mean being the strongest human in the world.
Don't call her just "Chun" , it's Chun LI
I would like to correct you, her roles though the game is as it should be, if she was too over powered than she would be another Ray Skywalker and it would make her boring, her slow development into a stronger fighter makes her a more interesting character, at some point they can make her the pivotal character in one of the games, at that point she can kick ass and take names. Before then, she’s a support character so making her too strong wouldn’t be smart.
A good support character can still have badass moments though and not just get their ass beat and saved constantly. Support character =/= damsel in distress.
With your logic, no character except for the main character should be tough. So what's the point in Guile winning any fights? Why doesn't Ryu just come in and do everything/save everyone himself?
they should maybe fix her character model first
