Next Street Fighter V DLC character leaked: Ed (the hoodie kid from the campaign)

Yeah, I also preferred his skinny self to this typical body type. I don't think every male character in this game needs to be muscled out; it's come to the point that those who aren't are unique for it.
Yeah, I forgot about Eagle. But is not something that is highly publicized. Today Capcom could use this for marketing purposes, actually.
Why would any character's sexuality in this game be marketed? I don't think Street Fighter's the game for that. Hell, I couldn't even tell you the actual sexuality of most of the cast, is how much (non) focus they've put on that.
Wait what. Eagle is a gay character? Never knew.
To be fair, he's always been blonde, it'd be weird if he suddenly changed.
Nothing matches perfectly with Satsuki.
- The silhouette's hat is two-pronged (like horns); Satsuki wears a tiny triangular hat
- The silhouette's hat appears to have a strap of some sort towards the bottom left side
- The silhouette is wearing short-sleeved clothing; Satsuki wears sleeveless clothing
- The silhouette has a wide, massive weapon at her hip/back; Satsuki wields a narrow katana

Yep. What a boring new design.

yeah it does kinda suck that they changed his body type
isn't FANG like the only non muscular/athletic guy on thr the game?
Didn't Disney talk up how they were introducing their first gay character for the Beauty and the Beast movie? Pretty sure there are other examples, but most are usually from Western companies.
But isn't sexuality a core conceit of the Disney princess movies considering how they revolve around romance, with a man and a woman getting together?
It makes sense for many properties. Not all.
So?
Vega was brown-haired in SF4. Now he's blonde in SFV.
But apparently changing the hair color of some nobody dweeb that shows up in Balrog's ending would be weird.

I think most of that had to do with him being the first. that would no be the case for SF.
also Kung Jin from MKX is gay. NRS didn't say anything publicly about that iirc
I dunno, I didn't find him as a teen with a plain hoody and bottoms much too exciting. At least here he looks like he has far more character with a elaborate design. His personality is showing too with that smug smile on his face. Hopefully we get a costume that is similar to what he wears in the story.

They changed Vega's hair color because
-he was blonde in previous designs. consistent with how they were ignoring SF4 designs and referring to older games
-the color scheme was better with his default clothes, which is why he has brown hair in alternates.
-you would still be able to recognize him as vega even if they changed his hair color to green. nobody dweeb could easily be a different character if they modified something
-clearly given by Ed's current design, there isn't as much thought put into Ed as with other characters. they probably gave 2 seconds of thought before transitioning him into a model in story mode.
Vega changes his hair color between blonde & brunette with each game he's in. It's basically a running gag at this point.So?

That top image is Joseph, not Jonathan.
You already got Jolyne let us have our Jonathan
I'd rather have buff Jonathan instead of skinny eminem hoodie kid
Meant as reaction

I think he looks cool, not expecting to play him though (especially if he ends up being charge)
It's like a Jr. Bison outfit. I like it.
This. Was looking forward to something different and it looks like I'm getting more of the same.
Bison and Rog are both mostly charge
Won't be shocking if he is too but they might go the other way for diversity
Someone has been eating alot or protein between the SFV story mode to now. Still, part of me does want to know if this is a time skip that got Ed Boy to this point, or if what everyone is saying about him aging faster than other characters, thus his power and skill grows just as fast to place him in as Balrog's 2nd.
This is what happens when stuff leaks before we get an explanation: It leaves everyone confused as all hell.

Wouldn't that just make him white Balrog?
Don't know if known but they are playing the new stage.

Also about ED, not happy with him, looks generic as fuck and what's up with capcom's blonde fetish in SFV?

I'd rather have a buff JoJo, period, as opposed to...whatever Hirohiko Araki thinks he's been doing with JBA since part 5...
It's most likely the accelerated aging.
Well, he IS a clone of bison after all.
You would think Woshige would bump into Ono in the hallway and be like "You know, character diversity does work in other games...I'm just saying"

I am still holding out hope for Peter to be playable. Best Story mode opponent. #Teampeter

Sure, but did it really have to be Ogre Street Jonathan?

There's a reason he only uses that costume once, he looks like a dork. Hell, even the weird rugby outfit looks better.

Dude looks like prompto lol
True
But it's better than nothing and Ed version looks better atleast
Now i just need the correct color and let people feel the passion of a sir
FTFY
Japanese content creators seem to think all white people are blonde. Or at least like 90% of us.

Maybe its meant to be that after bison dies or whatever in the story he transfers him self to ed and thats what transforms him.
I also dont like that look.
