This also ties into a weakness he shares with Ryu, which tends to be his mediocre physical range that causes him to rely more on zoning with his Hadoken as opposed to playing footsies in the neutral game; though unlike Ryu, most of Ken's moves are geared towards multi-hits as aforementioned, which on top of his mix-ups make him much more geared towards safe pressure and being able to get in. After the tournament, it is discovered that Gouken is still alive, and Ken and Ryu pursue him as he leaves. Ken is upset that Gouken has not said anything to them, but Gouken counters that they no longer need a master. Ken and Ryu head home on foot, and Rufus passes them by on his motorbike, calling them losers. Soon however, Rufus' bike runs out of gas, and Ken and Ryu reach the SUV; Ken offers Rufus and his girlfriend Candy a lift, but Rufus refuses. And social isolation can be devastating. According to the CDC, such isolation “significantly [increases] a person’s risk of premature death from all causes, a risk that may rival those of smoking …” This is terrifying, with implications not only for the men who are increasingly likely to harm themselves but for those around them. According to Jillian Peterson, a professor of criminology at Hamline University, that kind of isolation leads to self-hate, and men who externalize that self-hate are perfect candidates for becoming mass shooters. In Street Fighter IV: Aftermath it shows Ken helping Guile, Ryu, Chun-Li and Cammy defeat Bison. However, Bison refused Guile's offer to surrender himself to the military before unleashing all of his Psycho Power to commit suicide. The animation being canon is unknown as Capcom hasn't mentioned it in other media. Capcom reprinted the All About Street Fighter books for the 30th Anniversary Collection that mentions Akuma defeating M. Bison. Capcom revisits Akuma killing M. Bison in SFV where Akuma's SFII ending is the only one that shows M. Bison being killed, along with SFV April Fools 2019. Currently there's no official winner of the tournament and what happens during and after the tournament is unknown. [59] Street Fighter IV: The Ties That Bind When Ken was about 12 years old, his father sent his son to train under his best friend during the summer, the mysterious karate master Gouken. [48] At first, Ken was very hesitant to learn from Gouken, even questioning his training methods, but later began to respect his master. [39] Ryu and Ken would later become best friends and each other's principal rivals.

Jigoku guruma, “Hell wheel”. Reference to Ikki Kajiwara’s manga Jūdō icchokusen, where it was one of the protagonist’s special moves, although the original didn’t end in a tomoe nage and was more a repeated rolling bump on the head. Gouki’s Hyakki Gotsui replicated the move better. After the events of Street Fighter II, Ken is married to Eliza, something he had apparently vowed only to do after winning a decisive victory against Ryu. However, it is unknown if the two fought during the tournament or if Ken actually won if they even did. No details have been stated. Ken's promise to Eliza doesn't exist in Japanese text, only in the English translation of Street Fighter: Eternal Challenge. In Street Fighter II: Complete File it states that he lost to Ryu and continued his training. And in Gamest 255 it mentions Ryu avoiding M. Bison's flaming remnants after his body was destroyed by Akuma hinting that Ryu made to the finals. [58] Ken has little more motivation to join the Street Fighter EX tournaments than his pure love of fighting, and the chance of being pitted against his best friend and rival Ryu in combat. After returning to the United States for the first time since he left as a child to begin his training in Japan, he has been an unstoppable force in the American fighting circuit, although he never earned the opportunity to fight the reigning champion, Allen Snider. Much to Ken's delight, it turned out that he would get such an opportunity in the first round of the first EX tournament.

Born and raised in Japan, Ken lived a normal life with his Japanese father and ½ Japanese American mother. [20] [10] [13] When he was in junior high school, Ken started dyeing his hair blonde and became a delinquent. The reason behind this is due to his parents being at odds with one another while neglecting their child. Both were on the verge of divorce until Ken started misbehaving, which resulted in his parents settling down and live in harmony. Ken however kept his hair blonde as a warning to his parents so they’ll never forget the events that transpired. [47] I won, just like usual!"

Still, I asked him to go out with me only in the competitions in which Ryu participates." (「メルの誕生以来、格闘技大会への出場はダメということになつてしまいました。それでも、リユウが出場する大会だけは付き合つて出場してもいことにしてもらいました」 ) from Gamest Mook Vol. 81 – Street Fighter III New Generation ‘Fan Book’ No, the real reasons to read the “Ken Comes Out” piece today are the hilarity of watching Savage question a Mattel rep about the doll (she clearly thinks he’s just messing with her), and the revelations about how neatly Earring Magic Ken’s design captures an inflection point of change around queer voices in mainstream America.

Ryu and Ken's fighting style have gone through many changes over the course of the series. In the original Street Fighter, Ryu & Ken were genius martial artists who learned martial arts from an early age and created their own martial arts style. [74] This would carry over to SFA3 where Ryu adopts various techniques from karate, jūdō and taekwondo to create his own style. [75]However, in Ryu's SFIII bio it states that he uses martial arts based on karate. [76]It wasn't until SFIV where Ryu & Ken's fighting style became a "martial art rooted as an art of assassination". [77] Ryu: "There seems to be a reason. If you don't want to say it, you don't have to say it." (何かわけがありそうだ。言いたくなければ言わなくていい聞いた俺が悪かった。)

Christian Howard played Ken in Street Fighter: Legacy, which was co-directed by Joey Ansah and Owen Trevor. Howard reprised his role as Ken in Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist, Street Fighter: Resurrection and Street Fighter: World Warrior.

He is Guile's brother-in-law because his wife, Eliza, is the younger sister of Guile's wife, Julia. He may or may not be aware that Guile has reservations about certain aspects of his personality, but this doesn't prevent them from getting along. As seen in Street Fighter 6, these two men share a closer bond than initially portrayed, especially with the two looking out for one another in their own ways. Ken sits inside a rainbow by a waterfall and reflects up his past, "Nothing has changed at all since then..." As he thinks about the days when he trained with his friend, he can't remember all of the defeats, but he can clearly see each and every victory. He thinks, "Yes. We must challenge again. I'll find you again. my friend... And this time, there will be only one winner!"

Enhance your gaze with a captivating blue lens, showcasing Ken's mesmerizing allure. Ken is the main antagonist of Barbie 2023 movie, which is a new twist on the classic story of Barbie and Ken. In this movie, Ken is not the perfect boyfriend that Barbie always dreamed of, but a villain who wants to take over the world with his army of evil dolls.

In the movie, Ken wears a variety of outfits that reflect his personality and mood. However, his signature look is a blue suit with a pink shirt and tie, which he wears when he meets Barbie for the first time. But while film critic Ellen E Jones thought Gosling "smashed it" as Ken, she doesn't think this will hold much sway with the Academy. "I don't fancy Ryan's chances much at the Oscars," she tells BBC Culture. "Firstly because, even though we're in this era of Awards show reform, supposedly in line with social changes in the world more generally, I believe the tedious self-seriousness which surrounds these ceremonies will be the last thing to go… and for that reason a brilliantly hilarious performance like Gosling's will not be rewarded." She also makes the point that "the optics of giving a man an award for what is so pointedly a feminist film are a bit off". There was a man muttering in an alley one building away. It was Ken who had a hot dog in his hand. (ニューヨークの街角に道着を着た一人の少年が落ち着きなく立っている。どうやら人を待っているらしい。
