Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie - DVD

In a world defined by martial arts supremacy, the shadowy criminal syndicate Shadowlaw, led by the ruthless and psychokinetic M. Bison, seeks to dominate the global martial arts scene. To create the ultimate legion of brainwashed warriors, Shadowlaw deploys a network of cyborgs to secretly monitor and analyze the fighting styles of the world's most elite fighters. Bison sets his sights on Ryu, a nomadic martial artist whose boundless potential and legendary Hadoken make him the ultimate prize. As Ryu wanders the globe seeking strength, his longtime friend and rival Ken Masters, along with Interpol agent Chun-Li and U.S. Air Force Captain Guile, form an uneasy alliance to dismantle Shadowlaw before Bison can bend the world's greatest fighters to his dark will.

Directed by Gisaburō Sugii (Touch, Night on the Galactic Railroad) with explosive fight choreography staged by legendary real-world martial artist Kazuyoshi Ishii, 1994's Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie (Street Fighter II MOVIE) remains the gold standard for video game anime adaptations. Produced by Studio Group TAC and Capcom, the film is celebrated for its incredible fluid hand-drawn action animation, iconic character designs, and an unforgettable hard-rock/grunge soundtrack featuring bands like Korn, Alice in Chains, and Silverchair in its Western home release. Published on DVD by Manga Entertainment, this definitive physical release brings the martial arts classic home in high-octane presentation.
