Yujiro Ishihara, Mie Kitahara, and Masahiko Tsugawa in Crazed Fruit (Ko Nakahira, 1956) Cast: Yujiro Ishihara, Masahiko Tsugawa, Mie Kitahara, Masumi Okada, Harold Conway. Screenplay: Shintaro Ishihara, based on his novel. Cinematography: Shigeyoshi Mine. Art direction: Takashi Matsuyama. Film editing: Masanori Tsuji. Music: Masaru Sato, Toru Takemitsu.  The eternal triangle, this time involving two brothers, Natsuhisa (Yujiro Ishihara) and Haruji (Masahiko Tsugawa), and a young woman, Eri (Mie Kitahara). Crazed Fruit is somewhat of a landmark movie in Japanese film history, part of a genre known as taiyozoku or "Sun Tribe" movies, featuring the idle, affluent postwar Japanese youth. Every culture had its rebels without a cause in the 1950s, and the Japanese older generation was as scandalized (and titillated) by them as the rest. Crazed Fruit was singled out as more scandalous than most, partly because it seems to relish the erotic energy of the young without condemning it. The focal point of the film is the younger brother, Haruji, who becomes infatuated with a pretty young woman he sees in a train station, and becomes involved with her after he meets her again while out in a motorboat -- she has swum much farther out from shore than is usual, and he gives her a ride back. Her name is Eri, and she mysteriously keeps him away from the place she lives, agreeing to meet him elsewhere. She is taken with Haruji's innocence and shyness -- for a long time they stop short of having sex -- in part because he reminds her of her own lost innocence. She is married to a wealthy middle-aged American businessman (Harold Conway), a fact she keeps from Haruji, but which his older brother, Natsuhisa, learns and uses to blackmail her into having an affair with him. Haruji's learning the truth leads to a cataclysmic ending, of course. The material is handled with a good deal of sophistication that somewhat mitigates its exploitative qualities. The film made its young leads into big stars: After outgrowing his rebellious youth persona, Masahiko Tsugawa became a leading man and then a familiar character actor, while Yujiro Ishihara (the screenwriter's young brother) and Mie Kitahara married and became frequent costars -- a TCM commentary on the film called them "the Bogart and Bacall of Japan."

information about my street fighter au in progress that spans street fighter v, street fighter 3, and street fighter vi onward timelines:

-canon divergent but mostly keeps the canon personalities and lore of the characters, or at least the bits and pieces that i like. for example, sakura's characterization in this au is her sakura ganbaru and street fighter alpha 3 characterization but more mature, karin's characterization is her street fighter v characterization mixed with her street fighter alpha 3 and sakura ganbaru personality (because sfv karin as it stands would NOT suicidally rush into danger so she can protect the world and sate her ocd savior complex, but alpha 3 karin and sakura ganbaru karin would, she's just more mature about it in this au), dan's characterization draws from various sources but mainly the cheerful, friendly attitude of street fighter alpha 3, street fighter v, and udon dan (ESPECIALLY his v attitude of "i don't think you suck, i just think i'm AWESOME!"), the repression of trauma leading to anger that comes out in vague bits of satsui in street fighter alpha 3 and hinted at in 5 (his red gadokens), his obsession with helping others and always being nice and positive so he won't harm other people in the udon comics, his observantness from sakura ganbaru and his maturity and leadership abilities both in the udon comics and in sakura ganbaru. i haven't read masahiko nakahira's portrayal of hugo and poison so i don't know whether to integrate his characterizations of them into canon, but hugo is mostly the softheartedness and immature streak of iv and lighthearted cheerfulness of 3 with the quietness and thoughtfulness of street fighter x tekken, and poison has mainly her sfiv manic energy and cheerfulness with her sfv depth and maturity and Secret Video Game Obsession ("huhu, i feel like a beast tamer" when she fights blanka anyone? come on capcom that quote was so cute why did you change it so she isn't implied to play computer rpgs anymore that girlie plays baldur's gate and dates shadowheart. i know she's a shadowheart girlie)

-everything is slightly more lgbt than canon. also more neurodivergent, physically disabled, fat (sometimes on PURPOSE, and also NOT losing their badassness), and plural than canon.

-sakura specifically marries karin at the end of the street fighter v arc.

I must be the only one who thinks that the character designs in Street Fighter VI for the classic characters is dogshit. I strongly and firmly believe that the classic costumes should have been the default (albeit with some subtle tweaks) as they are quite iconic and well... timeless.

Ryu's design is just straight up boring, Ken's design makes him look like a bum from Hoboken or Trenton that's trying to jack a cigarette and Hennessy from your local liquor store and Chun-Li looks like a senior citizen! I feel like they deserve better than this!

And if they needed to make changes to the classic designs, I would've liked it had they taken inspirations from Masahiko Nakahira's Street Fighter mangas, Udon Comics, or maybe even some of the anime adaptations.
