After a ton of promotional work that slowly built up hype for the project, Street Fighter: Assassin’s Fist is now finally available online. This live-action series, developed by the creators of the short film Street Fighter: Legacy, follows Ryu and Ken as they learn the past of their master Gouken, his brother Akuma, and Goutetsu, the legendary martial artist who trained them both.

Machinima is also streaming the series live on Twitch.

 

[BadWolf]

Awesome, will dig in after work.

 

[Xion_Stellar]

Ah sweet! I will give it a watch once I get out of work

 

[Hoo-doo]

Sweet. Will queue this up to watch on the PS3 tonight.

 

[Auskeek]

I can't believe it finally happened. Been waiting for this ever since that first Street Fighter Legacy video came out.

 

[TheChits]

Just going off of the first episode, I really like Ken so far.

 

[Silky]

Ken's characterization is /PERFECT/

 

[leakey]

Going to watch this as soon as I get home

 

[YoungOne]

Watched the first ep, it's really well done.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Will watch

 

[MRORANGE]

1st episode was good, gonna watch the rest later, they nailed down Ken pretty well.

 

[Silky]

The accuracy in episode 2 doe

 

[TheOGB]

Frickin sweet, gonna watch soon. I'm excited to finally see it!

 

[Imm0rt4l]

Why is this so good

 

[Reynx]

The entire thing is being streamed on twitch right now: http://www.twitch.tv/machinima

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Ken looks good but man Ryu, do you even lift bro?

 

[Vandiger]

This is pretty good but yes Ryu looks smaller than Ken, needs to lift more.

 

[DiipuSurotu]

From the start I had a feeling many people would like Ken way more than Ryu :/ (despite the wig)

 

[BumblebeeCody]

No Akuma vortex? This Akuma sucks!

 

[Chairhome]

Popping this onto the chromecast tonight!

 

[giancarlo123x]

Will watch after my nap.

[NinjaBoyLao]

dat Ken.

Well he's naturally more interesting and the actor I imagine a lot more talented a fighter so it probably can't be helped o.

 

[enzo_gt]

Wait, the ENTIRE series?! I thought it was going to be released in parts?!

 

[ichtyander]

Wow, this is actually pretty good. Watched the first 2 episodes and I love how it's trying to fit in lore and some key reasons why the characters are the way they are and why they're here. Sure the production values are what they are (fitting in any case) and Ken's hair is ridiculous but still very accurate, based on the Alpha series.

Off to watch some more.

 

[alba]

Man this is so good. Ken's awesome

 

[Spotty Ren]

I just watched the alpha and the first four episodes, and I gotta say, I'm having a really good feeling about this so far.

They kept some iconic moves without making them look too silly, they did pretty well with the characters (Ken is spot-on), and I like the atmosphere and the fights so far. More than anything, it feels like Street Fighter and it stays loyal to the series.

Also,

Spoiler

Ono

being true to himself was awesome.

 

[Anteater]

yea ken is pretty good, although the hadoken and yelling out move names is kind of goofy, I guess it's the nature of a video game adaptation, not bad so far.

 

[Tizoc]

Can this series be 'purchased'? If so from where?

 

[APZonerunner]

Can this series be 'purchased'? If so from where?

Machinima have a brief 'exclusive' period on it, and then a blu-ray/DVD with a ton of extras will be available. That cut is a theatrical cut, too, so it's all strung together as one long movie of almost two hours.

 

[mgs2master2]

Thanks for this. Will check it out after work

 

[Shouta]

Watched the first episode. That was really amazing. Wow. Definitely going to watch the rest of this tonight.

I love the Alpha series art direction. The 3 series had better animation no doubt, but i loved the Alpha designs so much. Still my favorite Ryu--dat Red hair.

Same


Alpha had better everything. Designs, stages, music

 

[Naite]

Watched the first 4 episodes while working. Really enjoying it so far.

Will get the BluRay then I think I'm liking this from what little I'm watching.

 

[BumblebeeCody]

Awesome so far.

 

[Guymelef]

Lol at Ono cameo.

 

[Gillian Seed]

So if the Street Fighter Wikia is correct Ryu and Ken are 24 and 25 respectively at the beginning of the first Episode in 1989.

 

[Skunkers]

Ono cameo.

#dead

 

[rokero]

ken fucking masters is boss

 

[Khrno]

About to start episode 6, and so far it's been great.

 

[Imm0rt4l]

Gouki harnassed the power of the bbc. Convict conditioning and grew taller.



I'm dropping gouken for akuma if that means i can grow a little bit taller.

*plays skee-lo

 

[hitsugi]

Feels like this came out of nowhere. Will watch over the weekend, or tonight depending on how long the whole thing ends up being

 

[Anteater]

Finished ep2, really enjoying it, the fights were cool stuff too and pretty faithful to the fighting styles from the actual game
