I'm going to assume his transformation is like Necalli's? I'd hope so because the YUNG Zeku looks sick!

Not so because as Young Zeku, he activated v-Trigger in that fight against Karin.

 

[ColonialHawk]

I think his transforming is his v-skill, and what looks like a custom combo is his v-trigger.

Edit: Or maybe like a special command to transform

 

[Heavy's Sandvich]

yo gaming forum went HAM

I thought it was a ded gaem?

 

[Asd202]

Zeku theme is so sick.

 

[jett]

Have the mods realized they locked every single Zeku thread?

 

[Moaradin]

Wonder if Max gets excited about this character. He loves Strider lol

 

[Rymuth]

My thoughts mirror this.

I'm getting Gen flashbacks to stance change.

 

[abstract alien]

Why are they all locked!?

 

[TheSpoiler]

That battle costume is fucking Strider.

 

[lucebuce12]

Don't need more than 1 thread for the same news.

 

[Moaradin]

That battle costume is fucking Strider.

Even the old version is Strider. Looks so good.

 

[Marvel]

He's going to be popular.

 

[CoyoteSpitfire]

I wonder if the youth transformation is what Matt Edwards was hyping us up about.

Pretty disappointing if so :/

Zeku still looks pretty awesome though, and his theme is fantastic.

 

[Turbanator]

The two forms seem to function as two completely separate characters, pretty much like Gen. Normals and specials are completely different between states.

Also I don't think the brunet is the "young" form. Zeku's Nostalgia outfit is noticably younger, but still has the platinum blond hair. Looks like his appearance has been retconned.

 

[Mr. X]

I'm so confused. His VT was that ranbu looking attack, his transform was his vskill or a special move I think.

He's a stance character like SFV Vega or Gen.

 

[MrCarter]

Instead of 6 characters this season we technically now have 7! When Zeku’s V-Trigger or teleport transforms into “young Zeku” he literally turns him into Guy with similar moves like the shoulder and running slide. So sick.

 

[kirblar]

I really like the tinting they did w his hair-he's gone grey and dyed it blonde on top of that.

 

[jett]

Capcom is really putting a crazy amount of effort into this dude. They have to make two outfits for every costume he gets.

And yet Nadeshiko gets stuck with the same shit. It's not fair. Not fair, I say.

 

[JusDoIt]

I’d just like to point out that ALL EIGHT of Zeku’s costumes are swagged out. Probably the best character design in the game.

Nadeshiko also doesn't get as much screen time as ol' young Zeku.

They were all locked at one point though, so there was no open thread lol

 

[JAXXX]

Capcom putting in some effort i see...

 

[jett]

I agree. They should give her more costumes and turn her into a one-bar V-trigger

 

[Scotia]

Capcom have really pulled it off with Menat and now Zeku

 

[Moaradin]

Yeah, I think it's pretty safe to say that Capcom going with all newcomers for season 2 payed off

 

[ElFly]

Ugh the wait to 24 is p long

 

[lucebuce12]

.

 

[Wonko_C]

If his CA is any indication, Zeku just tags with another character instead of getting younger, probably Hiryu's predecessor?

 

[TheSpoiler]

Ugh the wait to 24 is p long

I thought tasty said he was out on Tuesday

 

[JusDoIt]

I don’t know if it paid off (financially), but all five of the newcomers are keepers.

 

[MrCarter]

His nostalgia costume from his young form looks like Guy. Nice touch.

 

[Scotia]

YT description says 24th

 

[hey_it's_that_dog]

Looking at the way Zeku's hair is modeled... can we please get a do-over on Ken's whole head now?

He's Kliff.

 

[lucebuce12]

YT description says 24th

"Zeku, the Ever-Changing Ninja, infiltrates Street Fighter V on October 24! "

 

[Moaradin]

.

 

[Scotia]

This is honestly one of the most interesting character concepts Capcom has ever done.

 

[Blueblur1]

Zeku is cool. I think I saw at least one special with a built-in 50/50 so he’ll be interesting to watch in tournament.

But I still want Sagat and Sakura. I can’t wait for Season 3 (which I’ve been looking forward to since S2 started).

 

[JusDoIt]

Looking at the way Zeku's hair is modeled... can we please get a do-over on Ken's whole head now?

His hair is kinda modeled like Ken’s story costume, tho.

 

[Marvel]

.

Wonderful.

 

[jett]

BananaKen is a Street Fighter staple now.

 

[Surfside]

Capcom really seems to care about Street Fighter. Makes me hype af for the Arcade Edition.

 

[Salty Rice]

By the way you think Menat is lewd just wait for Zeku. That guy gonna bring a new kind of lewd to Street Fighter.

Guess i was right.

 

[Marvel]

Best theme in the game.

 

[lucebuce12]

Best theme in the game.

Nah, shares top spot with F.A.N.G.

That theme can never be overtaken.

 

[hey_it's_that_dog]

His hair is kinda modeled like Ken’s story costume, tho.

But Ken looks awful in his story costume.

Bananas >>>>>>>>>>>> Bangs with pony tail

 

[Spman2099]

Even if I don't understand what is happening, he is sick.

 

[delSai]

Trailer made him look very combo heavy, not for me. His theme is dope and i like Young Zekus airthrow tho.

 

[Scotia]

Seeing as his v-trigger makes him younger I wonder what his second v-trigger will do?

 

[lucebuce12]

But Ken looks awful in his story costume.

Bananas >>>>>>>>>>>> Bangs with pony tail

Plus he has a weird tan and hasn't brushed his teeth since he was five years old in that story costume.
