I don\u2019t really remember the circumstances, but I remember staring at a screen capture of\u00a0Street Fighter II<\/em>, of Ryu fighting Guile in Guile\u2019s stage.\u00a0 And I began to think, how did Ryu manage to get onto a United States Air Force base in the first place?<\/span><\/p>\n Not to mention that his declared business on base would have to have been something like \u201cI\u2019m here to have a\u00a0street fight<\/em>\u00a0Colonel\/Commander\/whatever Guile.\u201d\u00a0 Yeah, I\u2019m sure the soldiers at the gate would hear something like that, and then immediately lift the gate and allow entry and passage, with no questions asked.\u00a0 Sure, come on in, welcome to base, and go enjoy your street fight.<\/span><\/p>\n Also, not to mention the fact that Ryu isn\u2019t an American citizen in the first place, a Japanese guy with zero documentation because he\u2019s homeless to begin with, trying to get onto a US Air Force base seems all sorts of ludicrous.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Furthermore, if Ryu has no papers whatsoever, how does he manage to get aboard all these international flights, and go from Brazil to Spain to Russia to Thailand \u00a0so easily, just so he can show in town, have a fight, and then promptly leave and go to another country?<\/span><\/p>\n And that\u2019s just Guile\u2019s stage we\u2019re talking about right now.\u00a0 Imagine the types of conflicts there are when trying to fight in front of giant Thai statue shrines, English castles, and whatever Taj Mahal-like building with live elephants that is Dhalsim\u2019s stage.\u00a0 And why does a Native American\u2019s stage have to be in\u00a0Mexico??<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n Go figure in a hypothetical fictional world where a mutant Brazilian can generate electricity through his skin, an Indian guy can stretch his limbs like rubberbands, spit literal fire, and\u00a0teleport<\/em>, and several characters have the ability to channel and throw literal fireballs at a moment\u2019s notice, I find the most questionable and unbelievable aspects to be the logistics.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I don\u2019t really remember the circumstances, but I remember staring at a screen capture of\u00a0Street Fighter II, of Ryu fighting Guile in Guile\u2019s stage.\u00a0 And I began to think, how did Ryu manage to get onto a United States Air Force base in the first place?
