Yes, mostly because his story in every game is "I love sumo. Sumo sumo sumo. I eat chankonabe. I want more people to do sumo." He has no particularly interesting relationships and has almost no impact on the various major storylines in the game. And his design is boring.

In a franchise with visually interesting and larger than life looking characters, he's just an all-around super bland character that shows up way more than he should because of his SFII tenure. --- I'm a little teapot blowing off steam. https://m.imgur.com/pmc9XsI https://m.imgur.com/4ihl8bE ...

Ryu's honestly the blandest character. Guile - badass army dude Ken - cocky fighter Dhalsim - dude with stretchy powers Zangief - beefy dude Blanka - electric green Tarzan Chun-Li - best fighter and hot E. Honda - sumo Balrog - Mike Tyson Vega - flat-chested woman with a mask and claw (wait, that's a dude???) Sagat - bald badass M. Bison - electric dude in red Nazi uniform Ryu - generic martial artist I mean, he's iconic. But he's still mean to be the "normal" fighter of the game. Everyone else has some kind of gimmick or identity which makes them stand out. He's like what Dorothy is to Wizard of Oz or what Luke (originally just a teenage farm boy) was to the first Star Wars movie. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Of the originals, it's... really not anyone. Everyone remembers hundred hand slap. Each of the original 8 has something to them that fuckin' everyone knows about. If anything, it's probably Bison who is the least memorable, in the sense that literally every other OG has a move that even complete casuals can recall in some sense. --- evening main 2.4356848e+91 https://youtu.be/Acn5IptKWQU ...

Damn_Underscore posted... How is this true? Because being a green monster with big orange hair is notable when everyone else is normal skin tones and upright posture.

If were talking about backstory and lore, then Blanka, Zangief and Dhalsim dont exactly have anything much different and/or more exciting than Honda. Honda = Wants to show that sumo is the best fighting style. Blanka = Mysterious jungle man who discovers his momma. Loves his momma. Gief = Fights for Mother Russia. Sim = Fights for a higher consciousness and to help his impoverished homeland I guess with Blanka, you could say he befriends Dan & Sakura? But hes usually just seen as someone who is just there at Dans dojo. --- Live action Hungry Hungry Hippos though, now that was a sport. ~Aeon Azuran ... Copied to Clipboard!
