I like this version of Ryu. It's obvious that this is a time after Gouken taught him again (Supe Art 2 and 3). Ryu is now wise and has completely rejected the evil intent. His theme just says it all.
I'm sick of the unsure Ryu, who is stuck with his SF2 theme and fireball zoning.
RANDOM COMMENT How many Ryu copies are there? - Ken - Violent Ken - Akuma - Shin Akuma - Cyber Akuma - Oni - Sean - Gouken - Sakura - Evil Ryu - Dan That's about eleven...
@nicey991 Dan "Parodies" Ryo from Art of fighting or King of fighters... he has barely the same move like Ryo, only weaker a bit... Dan was actually made to make joke of Ryo and of the whole King of fighters universe
@CASILLAS1g No he is a parody of Robert, Ryo and Takuma. His move set takes moves from all three of them. These three characters were from Art of fighting which one of SNKs fighters before KOF so really hes just a joke of Art of fighting.
The way I think about this theme is pretty much the way I think about Ryu. The "round 1 part" is Ryu's calm and friendly state of mind. He's always happy to have a good fight and wants nothing more than to improve. When the song changes though, that's like when Ryu gets serious. Another way to explain it is that the "round 1 part" is kind of like 'okay, I'm testing my opponent, let's see what he's got' and the rest is like 'done playing, time to kick this dude's ass'.
Storyline wise, how does he travel? See to me it sounds like he walks and just ends up in any country. I know he carries his passport, money, food and all that in that bag he has.
If he does walk, my god Ryu must be the healthiest SF character ever.
@Bellamyfanboy It's true. Ryu just walks from place to place. Hell, in his ending from Street Fighter vs. X-Men, Ryu literally walks from the moon back to earth, even though the X-Men tried to offer him a ride home.
@Renegade466isback haha yeah. I dobut anyone wants a Tatsumaki in their face. Anyway if he existed, would he not get funny looks? I mean some random Karate man walking the street lol.
Another thing story related, I used to think that the opponent you fight in every stage waits for him and they just fight.
@Bellamyfanboy Maybe his opponents force him to wash his feet before they fight, since Ryu lost his sandals after SF1 and can't be bothered to get a new pair.
Or maybe he DOES have a pair of sandals and just takes them off before he fights and cutscenes.
That, or maybe that's why his kicks hurt so much (especially his EX Super Kick that launches his opponent). The smell does extra damage.
@Bellamyfanboy I think sometimes that the castle he fights on top of is his house! But also, think of the way that he gets money. He gets paid from fighting tournaments, he does jobs (fisherman, drilling, etc) and on top of that, his best friend is rich, not to mention that he probably doesn't even need the extra cash because it's obvious that he's loaded. I think maybe Ken bought the Castle. LOL!
@smokintheblaze I take it he did those jobs you mentioned in Udon's comics? Also regarding the castle, it could just be a place he likes to go to or to train there. Maybe when he was training with Ken when they were young the castle was near Gouken's Dojo.
prepare for another shitty Street Fighter II theme remix (I hope with all my heart its not true but its bound to happen) . Then again looking at the roster hopefully they will be a bit more adventurous.
Imagine they just copy pasta'd the themes directly from SF4? now thats a scary thought
@Renegade466isback I would want them to remix tracks like The road, Rising Dragoon, or even his theme from MSHvSF. But the likelyhood of that happening is low.
Ahhhhh. I remember the days when i used to love to kick Ryu's ass with Sean with this theme playing on the hardest difficulty.... Best time wasted. EVER!
@fgfcgcb i dont now its is me, but i think look less japanese in this game than the others, i always think he is a copy of sonny chiba of the street figther 70s movie.
"To me, it isn't a matter of which Ryu theme is better, but simply that they reflect how Ryu is in each game. In the earlier games Ryu was still learning and wanted nothing more than to be the best while he was trying to fight the Satsui no Hado, and I think his earlier theme reflected that. In SF3, he is more calm and has come into terms with who he his and has overcome his dark side while still having the determination of being the best. I think this theme reflects that."
@ConkerfanX I agree i like this one better too!The sf2 ryu theme in my opinion is also overrated.Ryu sf3 theme sounds Better than his sf2 one in my opinion.
The Dreamcast version has an additional track that starts up when you get to the third round for each fighter's stage. These tracks are remixes of the original stage track. Also, the game will loop the first half of the song in the first round, the second half of the round in the second round, and introduce the new third track in round 3. I haven't played the PS2 version, but I think it just plays the original stage track and it continues playing through each round.
@DieselDiaz You are incredible. Thank you so much! Sorry it took me so damn long to get back to you :( but seriously, you took the time to help me out. Greatly appreciated :).
I'll die happy if I hear either this or alpha 3's Theme for Ryu remixed for SF X T
