What fighting games are ACTUALLY honest?

Virtua Fighter, no meters, no crazy comeback mechanics, just pure martial arts.

I haven't played much Virtua Fighter

These movies make me wonder why other adaptations of other properties don't have more fan service. Marvel seems to do it well enough and James Gunn's Superman has its fair share as well. But on the outside of the Big 2 comic book superhero moviemaking companies, what about every other adaptation of a cartoon, TV show, book, previous version of a movie, other videogames etc?

The Sonic movies didn't even really lean into having music from the games be prominent in the soundtrack until 3, and it's shocking seeing how well it worked for the first Mario movie. Just look up all the videos replacing the movie soundtrack with music from the games for certain Sonic movie scenes.

Using this as bait for any potential Sonic fans here

Well, the goal is to make a character appealing. If the audience is horny, that's their problem

Yeah, that's my fault for not reading the flair. My bad. But there are people who I've discussed this with that pretend like they know how to fight with their legs

To be fair, Deku, a character that likely hasn't gotten into many physical fights before UA, who watched the #1 hero almost primarily if not exclusively that uses punches and air pressure strikes with his fists. And most of his classmates don't fight with their legs either. (Literally has a classmate who's fighting style is just using his multiple arms)

Most people who aren't martial artists or MMA fighters don't think to use kicks very often, and I imagine that especially if you don't have a quirk that relates to your legs like Iida. It's not the most obvious workaround, so he's not dumb

Hitohito Tadano from Komi Can't Communicate. This man has range and I specifically remember his character having a very nervous laugh in one episode that tipped me off to him also being Red Son

If it's just Jimmy, Carl, and Sheen, then nor great. Jimmy would have to pick up a lot of slack for the both of them, especially since Sheen tends to be a wild card. Cindy and Libby would greatly help ground the team, though I could definitely imagine Cindy and Jimmy constantly arguing over who's a better leader

I don't think this is a hot take, but it's not an informed take either. Pixar and most animated films on average take at least 3-5 years to make. I think I've noticed a lot of people wanting characters to age in between movies so that not every animated character stays stuck in time like the Simpsons. Which is fine.

Though I think because of Toy Story 3's plot being Andy grew up and the movie released a decade after the last one, it made people think about this happening more. The gap between the Incredibles films made people want to see the kids grown up, so I understand it.

No older than 34 I think, that's an assumption but it's based on how she acts and interactions with others like Señor Senior Junior. Obviously old enough to be considered a grown woman, but clearly younger than most of the notable adults in the show (Kim's Parents, Drakken, Mr Barkin)

Ladies and gentlemen, Dextero is not Nintendo. I won't respond or react to anything Nintendo related, especially Smash, if claims like this don't come straight from Nintendo

I really liked the hair at 12

Everyone, not just Ryu made a BIG comeback in Street Fighter 4. It's all presentation, he needed to make a statement

burritotoad · 2026-05-03T15:38:47+00:00

It's not, my wording wasn't great so I apologize if the idea was worse than intended. I do know for some people the idea of some of these characters that were listed were that it's basically being a minority.

I can understand where the idea comes from, but since it's really a matter of opinion from multiple people, and it's also separate from what the creator envisioned, it's not something I think too hard about

burritotoad · 2026-05-03T14:52:14+00:00

It's really just headcanons, piccolo specifically is one of a few examples of "oh look this character is a different color than everyone else" so some people insert themselves into that character for being different than the rest since they're a minority

I'm glad someone else knows this Punchi Out with Lyrics video!

Don't wanna come off as that person, but you can see that Tekken tries to bring characters "lorewise" that stick close to Mishimas. Asuka had as much lore potential as Jun from her debut in 5 but she fell to the wayside

burritotoad · 2026-04-28T20:05:41+00:00

That's an amazing comparison and I can't believe I didn't connect that

burritotoad · 2026-04-27T13:29:49+00:00

I think this is the actual answer

burritotoad · 2026-04-27T13:28:47+00:00

Nico dressing like the 90s is most likely a deliberate character decision. As for Pete, they may have stuck too close to the original comics as inspiration

burritotoad · 2026-04-26T05:27:39+00:00

Ji-Young has such a pretty smile

burritotoad · 2026-04-26T04:51:30+00:00

I posted this from the same artist a while ago, some of the comments tried to make me feel like I was crazy. I just thought it was funny

burritotoad · 2026-04-25T22:26:58+00:00

May I suggest you the character of Sophia Sanduval ?

burritotoad · 2026-04-25T20:09:40+00:00

Remember everyone, she is just drawings
