I believe that many players are like me, when they first saw Chun-Li in elementary school, they thought it was very strange, why did this woman's upper body skin as white as fat, but the lower half of her body was not black? At that time, we really thought that her legs had turned black after a lot of tempering, and we thought it was a pity.
It wasn't until I grew up a little bit that I realized that there was such a thing as stockings.
It can be understood that Chun-Li is our enlightenment teacher. She shows us the curves of women through her modified cheongsam. At that time, we were very curious about this aspect, and the teacher basically did not talk about this in biology class, which was more obscure and evasive.
Fortunately, the review mechanism of the game hall at that time was not so perfect, and we can see many things in many puzzle and sparrow games that are not in the books.
Chun-Li basically established her position as the number one popular heroine in the series after the instant hit of "Street Fighter 2", and she will participate as a representative no matter what version she has in the later version.
Before the release of "Street Fighter" and related derivative works, Chun-Li's action pictures will be made early for promotion, and as long as Chun-Li does a good job, there should be no big problem with sales.
Chun-Li during the "Boy Street Fighter" period was the most unpopular, and although she looked young in sportswear, she lost her original charm. And in order to show Chun-Li's muscles, "Boy Street Fighter" made the lines more obvious, and there was no beauty at all. Later, when it was released on the console platform, in order to restore Chun-Li's popularity, Chun-Li's original image was still created as a hidden skin.
The failure of Chun-Li's image in "Boy Street Fighter" is mainly due to the banning of stockings. After being bombarded, CAPCOM finally handed over Chun-Li's classic skin. In fact, the shape of this sportswear is to set off Chunli's figure in anime and comics, but this effect cannot be done in the game.
After the 3D of the game, this costume is restored, does it also not feel any beauty?
During the "Street Fighter 3.3" period, more than a dozen skins were created for Chun-Li, but only the color was differentiated, and the costume shape did not change. But over the years, CAPCOM has not given up the idea of changing Chun-Li's clothing.
At the beginning of "Street Fighter IV", Chun-Li has an extra black cheongsam. This is what she was forced to wear after being caught by the Baroque, and later Chun-Li thought it looked pretty good, so she wore it to the battlefield. Although this costume is very beautiful, I always feel that something is wrong after I don't have stockings.
The black cheongsam only appears in Street Fighter IV because most players voted that the outfit was not collectible.
"Street Fighter V" Chunli's new look has to be said to be eye-catching, and she looks more mature after canceling the bag. CAPCOM's idea of banning stockings for many years has finally come true in this work, which fully shows Chun-Li's leg muscles.
Many people have this feeling, after wearing stockings, it is equivalent to having a fig leaf on the thighs and will not make people feel uncomfortable, and directly on the field with bare legs will be gone at any time, giving people the feeling that the scale is soaring. It's no wonder that "Street Fighter V" is sad to be reviewed in many countries, and Chun-Li is also responsible for it.
Fortunately, Chun-Li's classic costumes can still be selected in the game. Chunli's figure in "Street Fighter V" has begun to be Europeanized and Europeanized, with a small upper body and a thick lower body, which is obviously a little uncoordinated. I guess you have to buy plus-size stockings for these thighs! Otherwise, they will collapse before the fight.
Actually, I'm also curious about what kind of material Chun-Li's stockings are made of, and no matter how many beatings you take in the game and cutscenes, they won't deform or tear. This is stronger than Yuri Sakazaki's gym pants. However, in the comics, Chun-Li's stockings are often torn.
Street Fighter 6 is now the most popular fighting game in the world, and it can be said that it has ushered in an era. Other fighting games are moving on to it. The display of muscles and lines has become the current mainstream aesthetic, and "Samurai Shodown Dawn", "The King of Fighters 15" and "Iron Fist" are also following suit.
Female characters tend to show off their figures, and thighs have become an important topic of study for game developers.
Koei Tecmo is almost at the top of the industry, and the release of Atelier Ryza 3: The Alchemist of the End and the Secret Key has already attracted countless fans with just one pair of thighs, and it can be said that at least one-third of the sales come from these beautiful legs. "Thigh strangulation" has become a new aesthetic vane and industry benchmark for a while.
The aesthetic of "thigh strangulation" is actually that the thighs are larger and the calves are smaller, so that it looks very cute and is also in line with the aesthetics of Asians.
Street Fighter 6 is currently planning to move in this direction as well, and we can see that the thighs in her default costume are significantly smaller than they were during Street Fighter V, with more coordinated adjustments.
After the release of Street Fighter 6 for some time, Chun-Li has regained her original image. Her stockings are as silky as ever, but it's clear that her legs have become more beautiful, or more in line with our aesthetics. In addition, Chun-Li's fabric in this version is significantly less, and it fits snugly to the body, showing off the figure perfectly.
This seems to be a constant temptation on the edge of the bottom line!
In fact, if the new costumes of "Street Fighter 6" can be designed like this, I believe it will be very popular!
Now playing a new game, I always feel like I am going through a process, and I don't want to study the details anymore, and it is boring after clearing the customs.
Sometimes when I play those games with high ratings, I feel average, and I don't know how to get high scores.
Maybe it's just that the game mentality has changed!
In my spare time, I still like to reminisce about old games.
It always reminds me of those carefree youth.
