![BAYONETTA - Who Dat? ft. ShayMay [Character Review]](/img/1.gif)
Did you notice that Karin and Sakura are basically younger, female versions of Ken and Ryu? Same coloring, similar outfits, rivals that respect one another, the one in red being extremely wealthy... I'm sure there are more parallels, but I'm not that familiar with the Street Fighter universe.
Good point
OuroborosChoked same thing with Chung li and Juri. Both leg dominate kick based fighters who had their fathers killed by M.Bison. One is evil and one good despite having extremely similar backgrounds but just responded to the same trauma differently just like Ryu and Akuma
She also shares her knee throw with Ken.
I have that thought every time i look at them together
@Michael Tetur Yes. He's stupid rich
You nailed the thing I like most about Karin: she's not spoiled, she's proud. She strives for excellence and is willing to struggle to get it. She didn't have her fighting skills handed to her on a silver platter! She grows in SFA3 when she learns for the first time what it's like to lose, and moreover, she's willing to respect anyone who can step their game up to the same tier she's on.
Also that outfit she's got for SFV is seriously baller. :)
Jackson Ferrell I had the same realisation about Vega. I thought he was just a stuck-up flamboyant douchebag, but seeing this guy's Vega video turned me around.
Nothing you said disproved the idea her being spoiled. just not being one dimensional.
I like Karin. That's a rich kid done right.
Like a female, teenage Trump.
@Newdude12 yeah and Karin isn't a bitch to everyone .
Ya say it. From 5:32 - 5:47 Imagine Karin were ta fight just like Sakura but still keepin' her own uniform. It's like havin' 2 female versions of Ryu and Ken. What would happen if Gouken were ta take Sakura, Karin, Sean, and Mel as disciples? It might create The Ansatsuken Family.
Karin was my first encounter to the Ojou-sama laugh
+MrToonlink53 - And what a brilliant laugh it is! ~
+MrToonlink53 Same here. I like characters like that because of her.
uhahahahahaha...hahaha. something like this ._.
The fuck is an Ojou laugh?
Frieza-Sama was my introduction to the laugh. At around 9 years old I was very confused by this.
What's fascinating about her is despite of her proud and perfectionist nature, she became quite the charismatic character, she eventually became good friends with Ibuki and Mika, she even hired Birdie. She maybe pompous and shows her sass at times, but that's because she takes things seriously when it is necessary.
She also has great leadership qualities that even veterans like Chun Li and Ken respect her not because she's filthy rich, but because she does have excellent leadership skills and a very keen sense of utilizing her wealth to the fullest for whatever goals she's aiming for (which is in SFV, trying to stop a cataclysmic worldwide potential disaster) For even the veterans, she's not just a filthy rich schoolgirl, she actually shown effective leadership qualities.
U
i really do like how karin becomes the leader of the street fighters in a way in 5(which while takes a bit of chun li's screentime, makes a lot of sense considering how effective and hardworking her leadership is while chun li at times works better in a group.) and she's able to get ties to everyone with her knowledge of fighting while using her business responsibly and even scaring shadaloo into backing off with her power.(love her endings in alpha 3 and 5.) i love her relationship with sakura(and how she tries to help her out when she's down in her story by sending ryu to her showing her compassion and growth.) and how in 5 she's become friendlier while keeping her strong confident personality.(which udon took an unneccesarily long time to get too instead of making her a selfish lili-clone that took things too far.at times.) udon comics does have a problem with characterizing and certain plot elements at times,though it does add cool actions and story points to its lore with my favorites being in the unlimited(i hope the every street fighter character vs. gill fight is put in a 5 dlc story or the focus of 6 as i feel the story should focus on defeating the Illuminati/killing gill as 3 kinda left that plot hanging.) and street fighter vs darkstalkers comics(my favorite lore piece being beliel and morrigan being the ancestors of ryu and kens ankatsuken fighting style to explain why they play similarly.i hope morrigan,lilith and the other darkstalker characters become mainstays in the udon street fighter comics along with introducing other capcom series and ingrid.:3)
I wished Karin and Lili had a rivalry in Street Fighter X Tekken.
Princesoulger yes
Ok but like that would be I C O N I C they’re practically the same personality
Lili's not right in the head so I'd vote for Karin.
Unlike Karin, Lili ruined Asuka's character with their rivalry. Which sucks because I like playing as her.
Karin's Alpha 3 ending is "cannon."
i c wut u did thar
->The Joke
->Your head
Karin is the real deal, man. Definitely gonna be playing as her a lot in SFV.
Karin is my type o' cutie.
+Strekks - What? Posh and incredibly difficult to win over? :D
A challenge!
Amazing work as usual, DiGi! A lot of my friends who are huge Street Fighter fans absolutely adore Karin--and this video has certainly helped me see why.
Keep it up!
xx
+Rabbit Plays Games Whoa rabbit you watch digi's videos?! Never expected to see you here xD
+kevinthemanwilliams I sure do! I LOVE Who Dat! :)
"M.bison, finally defeated by a pink laser shaped like a cock" im fucking dead XD
Me too.
and her homegirl, Sakura is still struggling. You'd think that she'd bless her homegirl with a few stacks.
in SF Alpha 3, Karin Kanzuki was my main, along with a few others. So it makes me happy that you got to know the character like i do. my greatest moment with her is fighting M. Bison on Alpha 3. We are both down to our final HP bars on the final round. he comes at me with a fully power Psycho crusher. if it hit me, im dead....if i block....im dead due to chip damage, so i COUNTERED IT! it so so fucking EPIC! he died and i had won the battle......it was by far my most epic moment in any fighting game and i will forever love the character. i got SF5 solo cuz she was in it. i abit made about her move set but im still happy to be playing her again.
she along with sakura,zangief,ryu,dan and r. mika have my favorite endings in alpha 3.(and i like thinking her lasering the psycho drive is "canon".:3)
You did an excellent job on this. More than worth the wait. My initial interest in Karin started because she was presented as something like Sakura’s Ken. Ken is my all time favorite Street Fighter, so when Alpha 3 came out I was already very interested in her. I ended up really liking the character (and characters like her) and since 1998, just loving the character.
I remember first getting online and lurking on the very few web shrines she had.
While I went off and on with fighting games, I always loved the characters. Especially this one. I was excited when I learned a company would try to finally making a good narrative of the Street Fighter series. Unfortunately, not only did I not enjoy any of the Udon books, Karin’s depiction was a major disappointment.
I began to think it just wasn’t really possible to make Street Fighter into a decent narrative and when SF4 came around I wasn’t interested. (Though I loved that trailer with the brush stroke effect) I bought it on a whim probably less than a year after release and really enjoyed it but was still only playing casually. When I learned they were going to add more past characters, that’s when I started following fighting game websites, figuring they would be the first to report if she was going to reappear.
There were endless rumors too. There was the fake image of her fighting Sakura in SF4. People constantly speculating that her origin in the manga made it difficult for her to appear in the games. And Street Fighter X Tekken. Oh. Watched every reveal trailer hoping she would appear. I wanted her in the main series but I would have settled for that.
I preordered just to play her in the beta. I NEVER pre-order.
I could go on . . . and I will. Somewhere on the internet . . . I'd do a web-shrine if I wasn't broke.
Again. Thanks for this wonderful video!
I think a major point of Karin's game personality being different than her comic personality is that, as of SFV, she hired(or maybe just took in) Birdie to their household as his "profession" as of the latest SFV Beta is "Kanzuki Mansion Freeloader". Comic!Karin wouldn't touch SFV Birdie, but Game!Karin acknowledges his fighting skill and let's him live with her. It's really neat.
Also, OHHHHHHH HO HO. That Ojou-sama laugh gives me life.
+Goodbye18000 - Wait, what? Lol, hold on, i didn't know this. Birdie's profession is a Kanzuki Mansion Freeloader now?! ...man, SFV is going places. No wonder he's put on weight. Dude's been freeloading all 200 miles of that estate! XD
Also, yeah. That laugh is godly. Deep down in our hearts we're all just immensely rich school girls with a posh upbringing.
+Goodbye18000 Woah. I did see a page of them interacting from that vita box thing but it was in Japanese so I didn't know what they were saying. before that, I thought the contrast between the two might make an interesting, odd ball friendship.
This was amazing DiGi! Loved the end bit.
+Sasso Studios - Thanks very much, yo! :)
@@DiGiValentine broooo bring back the old intro its such a tune
In the Kanzuki Estate stage.. you can see that her Estate has its own Bullet Train Station! lolol
I really like seeing more of Karin after SF Alpha 3, and when she came about into SFV, I was really impressed seeing her, and what she was like in both her story and her role in the SFV movie mode. Next to Sakura and others I'd admired, she is also one of my favorites.
I love how her schoolgirl outfit has puffed sleeves and bicycle shorts, but I LOVE her new look even more.
Now we get to the princess-curled benefactor of Mika's Mafia! I personally like Karin, because she really did seem like a good person, even if she usually made a rude first impression! I especially liked that she stayed true to her word about sponsoring Mika, meaning that she takes her promises seriously, and has a strong sense of honor. I liked the way the games characterized Karin and her interactions with Sakura, so I'm glad I never read that manga(if only for that reason alone). Her addition to all the other awesome characters confirmed for Street Fighter 5 has me so pumped!
+cloudstrife4534 - Yeah, i think that pretty much sums up Karin in a nutshell. She makes a rude first impression because she's a very proud person but once you get to know her you see she's capable of respecting you if you have something worthy to be respected for, plus she sticks to her word too so she's trustworthy. I like that about her and i'm expecting great things from her in SFV.
it's more the udon comics that made her into a bitchy lili-clone (and took way too long to make her like her game personality.) ive read some of the manga and it honestly both fits her game personality and sets some parts of her role in 5.
always love your work digi!
especially when Alex is in it......
This was pretty good DiGi. I always enjoy going back and evaluating characters beyond my first impressions because I might see and sympathize more with them then I let myself believe and its nice to see you do the same.
You're doing amazing work man, till next time.
I'm from a city called Boston and a little to the south called New York City. I've only been to New York City only once you know why? because it's 200 bloody miles away! Also good video man. Can't wait to play as Karin in SFV. 4 weeks away!
Karin flew under my for the longest time, too; all I really "knew" about her was that she was a bit obnoxious, she was Sakura's rival, and that even on a highly underrated soundtrack of pretty bangin' tunes, she had one of my favourite themes from Street Fighter Alpha 3 (which if I remember right, was also composed by Hideki Okugawa, who worked on all of the SFIII games, doing Third Strike solo). So hearing that she ain't all that bad is a pleasant surprise.
I'll be honest, actually, all the Street Fighter Who Dat's so far have all been a but if an eye opener. One of my main gripes with the series for years- albeit one that probably came as a result of severe Hype Aversion on my part more then anything else- was that not many Street Fighter characters came across as interesting to me. Some were certainly interestingly designed, but I still felt they came across as flat; I only really had love for the characters introduced within the Street Fighter III and EX series'.
Fuck yes, another video!!! Great work as always Digi! Keep them coming!
I loved the Vega video, and and i think I'm going to marathon this series.
Hilarious, great work!
Agh! Another fantastic episode!
Honestly, I had the exact same experience you did with her beforehand! Thanks for opening my eyes!
the I was going to raise a major point in my series I am currently editing for my new channel (not this one, it is one I use for watching other videos).
I always thought that since Karin is in SF V and the Illuminati are involved in the game, her family could be very important to the game´s story.
Being that many members of the Illuminati are high ranking politicians and over all very influential people all over the world, could her parents or even her be part of this even bigger organization.
It could very well be that her family is so powerful that they are among the few families that could fathom in standing a chance against the Illuminati.
Just my opinion but will elaborate on it with the videos I have planned regarding SF V story
Lol the old old intro, brings back memories. This was the first vid of yours i ever watched, happy to take this trip down memory lane.
You deserve a lot more subs! Great work. Informative and really entertaining!
NEW WHO DAT HYPE!
Nice video again mate, series just keeps getting better and better. :3
that theory between Karin, Shadaloo, and the Illuminati was pretty interesting
btw, i dont know if you, Digi, or anybody has noticed this on Ryu, but following the games in the game's timeline, Ryu's hair gets darker each game
SF - Red
Alpha - light brown
SFII - dark brown
SFIV - darker brown
SFIII - pretty much black
SFV - ?
it kinda demonstrates how much of a wandering fighting hobo Ryu is considering he doesnt take the time to wash his hair, which would get darker and greasy if not washed properly
+Swift_Heracross People's hair CAN get darker as they age.
Crimsonis true, but Ryu is a hobo
Swift_Heracross ryu is not a hobo, he has home to go to & plus he can live with his best friend
+Swift_Heracross
Gotta also keep in mind that both him and Gouki have noticeably red hair when using the Satsui no Hadou. With Ryu's hair being red once again in the SFIV timeline, despite being dark brown for his "normal" appearance.
Maybe the red hair aspect getting darker is also a showing of how much less and less Ryu is using the Satsui no Hadou, especially seeing how in SFIII, he's completely abolished it and has apparently SURPASSED what it could have given him.
Ken's Hair isn't really Blonde...it's Black. :)
Makoto and Karin are my favs
Same here
Yeah best Karin and Sakura my favour love it.
Great video. I feel where you coming from btw. I'm not big on the the whole sailor uniform anymore either. I enjoyed the kimono dlc she has in sfv.
Love these Who Dat vids! Keep up the good work!
I like this! Good job!
Im glad your still making these videos, Your channel may be obscure but your videos are awesome!
As someone who had low opinion of Karin, this was great!
I don't even play Street Fighter but I'm still loving these videos dude! I'm learning all sorts of things haha, keep up the great work, your effort on these videos shines through something fierce.
+Daniel Hunt - Cheers, bruh! :)
rah, 200 miles.
bare flexin'. lol ffs.
This video was shared on my Facebook. decided to entertain it, and ended up impressed.
you've gained a new sub famalamski, good job lol
+Alienrun lol I already did haha! and yeah I have quite a few gaming friends :3
damn, that sounds rough lol. I'd suggest trying to find fb groups that discuss gaming and other topics you may be interested in, it can be pretty cool once you join the right ones :D
+chaosthunder - Imagine having a manor that big though. 200 miles. That's a long ting just to get to the front gate, lol XD Anyways, thanks for subscribing, man. Appreciated! I'm noticing the slang you're throwing around. Are you from the UK too?
DiGi Valentine
200 miles means if you ever need to run to the toilet...you'd be pissed loool.
Don't mention it, I haven't enjoyed watching a gaming youtuber in quite some time, and it's refreshing to hear somene from the UK doing stuff for a change!
lol and yeah man's from the UK, South London :D
+chaosthunder - Yesss rude-boy! You're a South Londoner? Nice one, fam. I'm from North side, myself. I got family living down those ends though, mostly around the Orpington/Bromley area. Where you situated at?
I always liked the spoiled rich girl with the "oh ho ho" laugh archetype its one my favorite tropes along with the narcissist and the completely insane psycho (take one guess who my favorite Street Fighter is from that). Also if you have to credit Udon Karin for one thing its the facial expressions (8:29 and 8:43 )
+Jurassic Reptile - Oh yeah, 100%! The art for those UDON comics have always been amazing, no doubt about that at all. It's just looking back on some of the story choices now i can see the writing took quite a few liberties with the source material. But i ain't even hating, it's just a different medium that the characters exist in, i can dig that. I just need to make sure i'm getting all my facts right for Who Dat because when i started writing this Karin episode it was going to have a very different approach because i had gotten Karin wrong this whole time XD;;
Another great episode of Who Dat. I'm really liking the ones on SF characters and would like to see more. Particularly on the III series. Anyway, keep up the good work :)
Just found this channel and it's great, subbed for sure
So London, got me in tears man good work.
Dude you rock!!! Loving your videos everytime. Still waiting on an Sakura episode. I guess since you've done Karin.
Just seen a small amount of vids from you and I say, I like the content. Just subscribed and I'll be looking forward to what you bring.
Mr Digi Valentine. I've been a subscriber to you for a couple of days now. your content is unique and your delivery is great! I love the fact that you crack down on a character based on their facts and expand them more. keep it up, Mr Valentine!
Wow that was a great video! Subbed
Would just like to say upon me trying to find out who juri was I came across your video and INSTANTLY SUBSCRIBED. Dude you're freaking hilarious and informative. LOVE YOUR VIDS !!!!
Great analysis of this character.
Oh hohohoho
I love karin so marvellous OHOHOHOHOHO!!
"WELL, THERE GOES ALL MY HENTAI PRIVILEGES!"
Ooohohohohoho!!!!
Awesome video DiGi!
OK after this episode i think the Kanzuki's arw one of the richest groups in gaming XD
AMAZING SERIES!!!!
Props for the DYKG segment, that was nothing short of brilliant and hilariously timed. Likewise, the video as a whole was expertly handled, and I'm glad to say I've had my own eyes opened to the possibility of the Kanzuki here. Also digging the delectable theory-writing there at the end. The sad thing is this could date the video when SFV comes out proper, but if it turns out to be true... Hoo boy.
One thing I am finding interesting is, Sakura evidently not being on the roster for SFV makes me think of the reasoning. Karin's importance is going to tie into R.Mika... But without Sakura there to be the alternate plot, your Illuminati Connection theory seems the most likely. Can't have a character's only relevance be as a background rival to another, right Rufus?
+JacksonJin - Thanks! :) As for Sakura, nah i think we will see her as DLC much MUCH later on down the line. An older Sakura would make sense from a business/marketing perspective (she does have quite a large fanbase) but they probably didn't want to use her right out the gates because of too many shoto-type characters taking the centre stage in the past. I think we'll see Sakura at some point and their old rivalry will kick back up again, which i'd welcome. Maybe it'll tie in to the Illuminati theory too. Who knows. I just hope it's interesting from a storyline and character arc perspective :)
I really love your wit DiGi, ahah.. I've gone from only watching the characters I know to watching all of them because I just enjoy your humour so much B-)
A zaibatsu with martial artists that own a space laser? Shit this rings a bell.
Great vid!
I really love that ending theme of yours.
+Kenseiger J - It is pretty damn funky, ain't it? All thanks go to Sir J for making that song (and every other song on this channel, in fact).
You are the reason why Karin is my favorite character. Not only did you and I both kind of have indifference towards the character(Me mainly because I didn't want to click on this specific Who Dat), but as you told it to me, new Karin became my 4th favorite character to play as, but my favorite character overall. THANK YOOOOOOOOOOOOUUU
Karin's outfit may be cliche, but it does connect her more strongly to Sakura.
good stuff man, subscribed!
This video is awesome!
Also please do cody next
_[beat]_
"what do ya mean it's pronounced as _'Kuh-Reen'_?!"
My exact reaction, bruv xD
I never thought of her as her as rude but as prideful
The best version of Karin is from the Saigado doujinshi
Quince friends?
Not sure why it took me this long to subscribe. All of your Who Dat? videos have all managed to maintain a high level of quality, and all thoroughly researched.
Would you consider doing a video on Cody from the Street Fighter/Final Fight series? (I think he would be a pretty good subject given the evolution of the character over time.) And, if you'd be up for it, I'd love to see a video on Beowulf or Big Band from Skullgirls.
Either way, keep up the good work.
+PSISomething - Hey, better late than never. Glad to have you subscribed! (I actually do the same thing, myself. I watch a channels videos for a while to get a feel of their upload rate and personality before i finally subscribe to them, so no worries).
As for Cody, i like the guy. There's clearly a story there and i definitely have material to work with when it comes down to him. That said, there's no current plans for him just yet. I have a long list of other things i need to make episodes on first but i think Cody might make an appearance if the moment arises. I wouldn't mind doing an episode of him at some point. We'll see though.
Awesome video. Only thing that's missing is a ohoho shoutout
Very fun video!
Well done!
love this series!
Awesomeness video
I love your intro.
Great vid as usual.
Think maybe you could cover an SNK character in the future? I think Terry Bogard or Athena Asamiya would make for a great Who Dat? video.
+FGC|Checkmate - No promises just yet but if my schedule free's up i'll look in to covering one or two SNK characters. We'll see. Thanks for watching :)
Awesome video can you do gill
That’s a good idea digi valentine you should do some SNK characters like Terry Bogard he’s interesting to know.
that animu rich girl laugh tho....
***** XDD exactly
***** LOL XDD
dayum nigga....you've done it again. You've swept me into caring who this character is. Duuuude I love your work! keep'em coming! Get bigger and more famous, I support you! When I make it big ill fund you to pump out more episodes
well she's definitely different from lili that's for sure
I love that intro!
These videos are pretty great, man, I just discovered your series today and I love your presentation style. More popular channels tend to mess up on informational/retrospective videos, imo, by having an annoyingly high ratio of stupid-joke-time to actual-info-time. You're almost as concise as DYKG without being so damn dry. That comparison isn't perfect though since these videos are meant to be entirely informational. Anyways, though, it would be kind of hilarious if some day DYKG asks you to lend your voice for one of their videos even with the little spoof of them that you put in this one.
He just did a NiGHTS episode on DYKG.
The strange part about Karin is that I liked her being an effective stylish jerk the fact she has compassion is something I was not aware of but I am not offended that she has compassion even though I love fighters who are jerks because her positive qualities like a fantastic appearance,great number of techniques,speed and power combined with her vibrant personality make her fascinating and a great character to play.
Her only downside is you need to be a perfectionist like her to make the most of her and she does not work well for new players that are not willing to invest a lot of effort into her.
what about ken
Any future episodes and thoughts about Gen from SF alpha?
10/10 would watch again. I am maining her in sf5
I was amazed with karin's role in the storymode! she is the freaking leader. Also she is so rich that she owns a 6000 ninja army that sadly got owned by Bison.
...Wait... nothing about Ken? I always thought she was Ken's Sakura in a way. Where did I even get that from?..
+Sai Prime Their is some history. Karin fought Ken in the second volume of Sakura's manga.(sadly, it isn't actually shown) She also mentioned taking a few pointers from his moves before she met him. She created her own martial arts after all. In Alpha 3, she loses in a rematch if you play Ken and says she didn't think she would lose again.
AgentownshipRebelion Years later, but I noticed Karin has Ken's forward throw in Alpha 3.
he does fight/somewhat inspires her with his view on fighting in alpha 3.
Just remember in game is the only canon story for SF they borrow a few things from the manga namely Masahiko Nakihara's which is pretty much our canon manga since he did artwork for Capcom.
1. I love your animation opening of compliments of different characters, even for Tifa Lockheart.
2. Very nice review on Karin, for she's a gutsy fighter whom I hated her in the past for no reason.
Dhalsim bro. My best.
6:40 Relatable.
I got a question this time: How do you feel about character stereotypes? For example, from what I seen, the rich character are usually the ones who are the most obnoxious or spoiled. I just wanted to ask this question because from your description of Karin, she seems to break out of that stereotype slightly, and I was curious. Other than that, I hope you will continue the great work.
+gizmo123473 - Truth be told, in some cases i actually don't mind stereotypes if they're used on grounds for people to relate and connect upon. There's been some great characters made from a stereotype mould and they wouldn't have been so great if they were not made from it. I'll probably speak more upon this subject if ever i do an episode on Hakan, actually. There's a lot i want to say about that guy in particular.
As for Karin herself, i do feel she fits the stereotype of a rich upper-class female, snobbish in attitude and someone who looks down upon people less worthy than her... but she definitely does step outside the box a little due to the way she shows her respectful side. It's just a matter of winning her respect. She's got her heart in the right place, that's for sure.
Honestly the whole" learns to be more respectful after their losses" isn't pretty standard for any rich character that isn't just a flat villain.
At least your first impression of her wasn't while reading a hentai doujin. Which I was reading cause I saw Cammy was in it.
gg
i'm the same but the one i read was with cody. apparently, he was sleeping in her bushes and he beats the crap out of her body guards. karin then fights him and says if he wins, he can stay with her for free. he does so easily so karin lets him. then she offers him sex as rent for staying with her and..........well, cody was in jail for a long time. ;)
+maxacorn lmao
+maxocorn do you have a link for "research"
Yeah, the one I saw was called Durian I think. It had Cammy on the front cover and basically Cammy beat her in a fight. I had no idea who she was. So i kinda just thought she was from something else maybe. Like another fighting game. Also was confused about M.Bison's involvement too but I was never aware of Cammy's time spent s his doll commander or whatever so in hindsight it makes some sense he'd show up like he did. o.o
where do you get these pictures from man? They are awesome and I want them.
When I was watching my friend play SF Alpha 3 home at me this Friday and facing off against Sakura, I noticed that she seem to have similar moves to Fei Long.
Seems like I'll be spending some time learning her.
(continued from previous comment)
I'm starting to see, though, that I was a little unfair; there's a little more depth and thought put into the casts across the series then I gave Capcom credit for.
Yeah! It actually was Karin
Karin...Misaka Mikoto admires you greatly!
i am a great fan of karin almost every time i play street fighter i use karin and i know a lot about her
I loved Karin from SFA3, by the way DiGi Valentine can you link me the background music used in this video, especially the Karin Simple Rating themes, cheers fam!
My main in SFV as well as Charlie Nash.
