Street Fighter IV Gets Its Own Anime
CAPCOM has announced at the Tokyo Game Show that there will be an anime series for the upcoming Street Fighter IV and it will be produced by Studio 4°C.
Originally short clips of promotional materials were just produced to market the game itself. But they became so popular that the company decided to go ahead and let Studio 4℃ carry on with an entire series.
So basically it will be the same gang that worked on the original promotion clips. The artists are also the same, with Koji Morimoto (Animatrix) as supervisor, Jirou Kanai (Steamboy) as director, Akiko Saito (Spriggan) as CGI director, and Katsumi Matsuda (Spriggan, Steamboy) as character designer.

Here’s a nice trailer that contains some preview of the game as well as the anime:
I’m not a big fan of fighting games since I really suck at them. But still I grew up playing street fighter so I wouldn’t mind watching the anime series.

I have to disagree bk201, the anime look fantastic, it has the look of the old street fighter anime films, but the game LOOKS terrible and i cant see me getting it at all………… chun li for the win tho ^_^ i love chun liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Bison for the win! I love street fighter yet i still have to see the non-live action films lol the live action ones are pretty dam awful but this series looks awesome!
The game though i think 2D looks so much better for it, 3D doesnt do it justice lol!
