BTW, I'm looking at a couple of REALLY old posts about Street Fighter

and

suddenly realized that with the introduction of the Alpha games, the
character designs are looking more and more like anime characters.

Would

you guys mind a fic I've been working on being posted here? It's not

really

anime except that Sakura reminds me of a typical agressive super-human

type

similar to A-ko... (minus the super-strength, anyway).

hate to be the one to break it to you....but Streetfighter II is 
anime....its not completely bad either (though there should have been 
more Cammy)...It kinda puts Damn Van's version to shame. 

	Thanks - then I'll post parts of it whenever I have time.Yeah... uhm, I
know of the Animated Movie (which rocks and, IMHO, makes the Van Damme film
look like a B-movie). And I've also seen some of the V-series (*wonders how
it sounds in the new dub version...*). But to date, there hasn't been
anything featuring characters of the Alpha series.
	My story deals with the back story of Sakura of SFA 2 and depicts her in
situations such as training for the first time - imitating what she
witnessed at a street fight involving Ryu... I'm also deathly afraid of
portraying a young girl in a first-time fighting situation building up
enough ki to launch a fireball! Just doesn't seem reasonable (i.e.: what to
do? what to do?...). ^_^
