I am Ryu. I have devoted my life to the path of the warrior, always striving to grow stronger in body and spirit. But when I look upon this place… I feel only disappointment. Your lack of skill is disheartening—so many of you speak of fighting, yet few seem to actually understand it. You chase tiers, not improvement. But worse than that are the endless, childish arguments over who is “hotter”—this absurd war between Chun-Li fans calling her “Blue” and Mai fans calling her “Red.” These women are not trophies. They are fighters who have endured struggle and earned their place through strength and discipline. Reducing them to nothing more than avatars of your fantasies is shameful. This is not the way. You dishonor the fight, and more than that, you show no desire to truly understand it.

I’ve faced countless opponents, each teaching me something new—about strength, about discipline, about myself. But when I look upon /sfg/, I see little of that spirit. Instead, I see endless posts dripping with lust for women who deserve your respect, not your fantasies. I see players who complain more than they train, who blame the game before ever looking inward. Your hands are quick to type nonsense, yet slow to learn the basics. This isn’t the spirit of the fight—it’s a mockery of it. I hoped to find fellow warriors here. What I found was disappointment.
