Street Fighter V - Ibuki reveal

The outfit and theme are amazing. Im glad they went with another variation of the modern day Ninja thing that Guy has. I love her gauntlets and leg gear. They gave her actual ninjutsu.
 
Haven't played much at all, but I'm so glad I have my SFIV main back. Couldn't find a good main in V, but Ibuki is it. I'm sure of it.
 
she did like a Ninja sealing before the move though, and the camera angle is very anime.

It looks really cool though, I see it more as a complement.

Yep.

The fact she's very Naruto-ish actually makes me want to play her more than not. She looks cooler than ever.

I'm so happy right now, I was getting seriously worried about waiting 2 more months for a character I wanted to use in this game. Well I mean a DLC character because I actually like most of the cast so far and don't outright hate anyone but ... we've had 2 beefcakes in a row and Ibuki was one of my faves in SF4.

I'm guessing tomorrow will see a capcom blog update detailing ibuki and this months patch which will probably all land on tuesday. Looks like June-July-August-September will play out as Cinematic mode-Balrog-Juri-Urien. And maybe if we're lucky , some of the single player additions people have asked for will make it out before December ? Season 2 coming maybe next February ?

Each addition to this game gets me more pumped to play it some more.
 
Her outfit kind of sucks, OG outfit truly was the best (most of the returning outfits just seem to be different for the sake of being different). But she looks fun.
 
The vtrigger bomb reminds me a bit of elphelt's pineberry, just without the annoying hitbox when thrown. Love the arm and shin guards, but really don't like the school uniform.
 
we should take note of everyone saying they found their new main and circle back two weeks after her release...

Like clockwork tbh. I personally love Ibuki and wanna play her but I said the same thing with Alex and Guile so I don't know. There's still something "off" about this game. I'll probably play her for a bit, maybe the next few days and then stop playing until the next thing is out similarly to what I do whenever this game has an update.

It's dope but I'm still feeling like there's nothing allowing me to be fully pulled into it.

And yeah Capcom's gonna make you buy her alt costume. Just how it works. Probably the same reason why Sakura will have her schoolgirl costume as an alt since it's easier to get people to buy a "classic costume" rather than some random "oh yeah she's in a dress now buy that" one.
 
Very interested to see how she plays in this game. I really liked playing her in SF4 but I eventually quit because I didn't like how reliant on Vortex setups she was.
 
I love how much more of a stereotypical ninja she is this time around. The team has done a really good job of individualizing the characters in SFV.
 
so i haven't super been following SFV for a bit but im curious who is gonna be legal to play at evo? just the starting roster? the starting roster and alex?
 
The outfit is trash

Hoping for a classic outfit as the premium, or something that isn't garbage at the least.

She looks hype though.
