This whole series was really bad, it was boring and slow not a whole lotta action here bubs.

Getting better
by The No Evil Killer (Everywhere, Anywhere, Nowhere)
I'm still quite surprised at how good this series is. Most shows and movies based on video-games are dreadful but SF II V seems to keep coming up with good stories and features great fight scenes. Even for animation the brawling still packs a punch and the cartoonish nature of the show never imposes on the more serious parts. By this point the story arc is becoming more sophisticated and ends up being rather theatrical. It's great the way they incorporate all the famous SF characters and still manage to give them quality writing.
The DVD has a glitch though. From about the 3rd episode on the English dialogue is roughly 1-second off sync with the mouth movements. I got used to it but it still bugged me to begin with.
5/5
street fighter is da bomb
by
from the very begining of the volume 2 I knew it would rock and it did. Street fighter offers a lot for example a it always gave plenty of action. The music was suitable for street fighter and the characters were very cool like vega and his superb entrance to the series. This volume offers a lot when it comes to a dvd, good extras, the quality is worth it, it offers clean picture and smooth sound. In overall I think that this volume is definately da bomb and a must buy.

Many improvements from the last disc...
by (Ontario, Canada)
Some of the problems that I've been having with the first disc are here on this one, however, most of them are fixed, and the disc is not as glitchy as the other one. Also, the series itself really starts to pick up well, with some important factors...
The storyline also takes a few new interesting twists, but I won't state them here. The character development continues to shine, which is one of this series' shining points. Each of the characters has a separate personality, and it is shown in this disc.
I also noticed a big change in the music. The first volume had all synthesized music running in the background, but the second volume had some new music: all orchestrated. This is a very pleasant change, because now the dramatic scenes are more dramatic, and the battle scenes are more intense without thinking, "Geez, that music sounds so phony..."
However, I still would have liked the original opening theme, "Kaze Fuiteru" instead of the new opening that Manga placed. They even replaced the original Japanese version with this opening. This doesn't really make the series complete if the original opening isn't there...
But anyhow, I think this is a great disc. The plot moves very quickly, and if you're an anime fan who enjoys action-packed battle scenes, great music, and a generally exciting series, then this show is definately for you.
