It was quite welcome to see Oro's story advancing the plot of Street Fighter V. While Oro himself wasn't privy to any major conflicts, only engaging with some friendly sparring with Rose and Dhalsim, his story did something no other character's story has done so far - it made Street Fighter look intellectual. Oro, being … Continue reading Searching for Gold: The Wisdom of Oro →

Akira's story in Street Fighter V is a way too sugar-sweet tale of a bunch of girls who got together to have a tea party. As much as I hated what Capcom did with the story, I struggled to find anything at all that could give it any sort of purpose besides what we had … Continue reading The Truth About the Kanzuki Tea Party →

I was looking forward to Akira's story mode, pondering where Capcom could potentially go with it. Akira's backstory is kind of dark, what with her brother being brainwashed twice and her having to rescue him on both accounts with her friends. I was hoping that Capcom would stretch their writing abilities with her and give … Continue reading Akira Kazama’s Bittersweet Symphony →

I had no idea what I was going to write for my 100th article, but I knew I needed something big to commemorate the moment. What theory could I possibly write that was worthy of being the 100th?

Never did I think … Continue reading Mairzy Notes: The Observation of Mayor Cody Travers →

However, people have been asking me to cover other games or do more in-depth articles for the FGC in general. Over the past few days, I have been involved in something of … Continue reading The Mystery of Mugen →

Since we haven't seen an update for the new characters in Street Fighter V, I've been unsure of how to progress with my theories. Certainly, there's plenty of juicy tidbits in the lore of Street Fighter that I haven't come across yet, and there's even been some I have but couldn't use. However, it seems … Continue reading Solve for Q: Predicting the Final Character of Street Fighter V →

It's been a while since I last did an interview, but I've always known that insights provided by people who have actually worked on the Street Fighter series is a great way to not only understand the development behind the game, but it can also reveal information that would allow someone like me to create … Continue reading A Few Questions for Marc Swint →

Based on the research I've done, Ibuki's story seems to be going a number of different ways. With her clan behind the original blueprints of what would become the G Project, her personal ties to the Illuminati, and her apparent soon-to-be blood feud with Akira Kazama, is it any wonder she drinks? Ibuki seems to … Continue reading Where the Summer Breeze Blows: A Few Thoughts on Ibuki →

People have been asking me if I would ever branch into other games. My theories have been solidly Street Fighter for a long time. Admittedly, I was not expecting to write a Tekken theory. I write Street Fighter theories: it's what I know and what I do best. However, after being asked recently, I decided … Continue reading The Biggest Threat in Tekken →
