Alignment: Chaotic Good (Ken is a man with a great fighting spirit[6], the type to see it as disgraceful for a true warrior to let himself get possessed[7]. Though his main goal was originally to achieve global fame as a martial artist[8], he is a good man who values his family above all else[9], to the point where he retired from fighting in order to look after them[10], and will force himself to go into hiding if it would keep Eliza and Mel safe[11]. Still, despite his pure intentions, Ken can be incredibly overconfident and makes jokes at his opponent's expense all the time[12]. Brash and arrogant, Ken loves standing over his opponents and laughing at them after knocking them out[13]) | Chaotic Evil (Ken, having been possessed by the psycho power of M. Bison[14], has become just as merciless and power-hungry as Evil Ryu[15]. His arrogance has been amplified, shown in his need to become stronger than anyone no matter the cost[16].

The Street Fighter cast can break[26] apart cars[27], as well as entire semi-trucks overtime with various hits[28].

Stamina: Athletic Human (Ken is a hardened fighter, used to participating in exhaustive battle. He is used to participating in, and winning, tournaments[40], showing his fortitude to fight at his peak condition no matter how many opponents face him successively) | Peak Human (Violent Ken has an insatiable lust for power[41], who feels the need to become stronger than anyone no matter the cost[42]. He loves the smell of raw blood and fighting, and hates boredom[43], and so will likely push himself to keep fighting until he can't anymore)

Range: Standard Melee, Several Meters with Hadoken, Reppu Hadoshu, and Shakunetsu Hadoken

He is a natural athlete[46] who mastered the Shoryuken technique into uncharted territories[47]. At just a young age, Ken became the champion of the All-American Martial Arts Tournament[48]. His Shoryureppa technique was created on the fly, without him even thinking he could pull it off[49])

Powers and Abilities

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Martial Arts (Ken was trained in Ansatsuken by Gouken[50]. He is a natural athlete[51] who mastered the Shoryuken technique into uncharted territories[52]. He is the reigning champion of the All-American Martial Arts Tournament[53]), Enhanced Senses (Ken has finely-tuned senses, that he can use to spot intruders[54]), Ki Manipulation (Ken's power source is Ki[55], which is a product of training and self-discipline), Extrasensory Perception (Ki users are able to sense the Ki of others[56]), Energy Projection & Sheer Will (Hadoken summons all of the user's will through their hands into a wave of Ki energy[57]), Fire Manipulation (Ken utilizes fire in his Shoryuken, Shoryureppa, Shinryuken, Guren Senpukyaku[58], etc.), Status Effect Inducement (Hitting the opponent repeatedly, without them being able to recover, causes them to enter a stunned state[59]), Limited-Flight (Tatsumaki allows for the user to briefly glide forwards through the air[60]), Perfect Guard (Parrying acts as a perfect guard against all attacks[61]), Invulnerability (Physical Invulnerability; Focus Attack make the user invulnerable to the first attack used against them. Red Focus makes the user invulnerable to all attacks[62]), Heat Manipulation & Statistics Boost (Heat Rush has Ken channel heat through his entire body to power-up his attacks[63]), Resistance to Mind Manipulation (Despite being brainwashed by M. Bison[64], Ken retains enough control to fight against and even defeat Bison as he pleases, and eventually fends off the brainwashing entirely in order to regain his regular form[65]), Resistance to Electricity Manipulation (Ken casually blocked C. Viper's electricity without feeling any pain[66]), Resistance to Precognition (Premonitions; It is hard to read the futures of Street Fighter characters, as they are always fighting against it)

Notable Techniques

  • Parry: Also known as the perfect guard or the perfect counter, the parry technique has the user time their block perfectly against an enemy's attack. In doing so, the user completely absorbs any damage they would've taken, and the enemy is left open for a counter-attack.
  • Parry

    Parry

  • Focus Attack: When winding up a powerful attack, the user will be accompanied by black ink streaks, that indicate the use of a Focus Attack. This attack has the user absorb the first attack levied against them, before unleashing their devastating counter-attack, which will leave an opponent falling to their knees and vulnerable. A variation to the Focus Attack, the Red Focus Attack, will allow for the user to withstand any amount of attacks used against them while charging up.
  • Focus Attack

    Focus Attack

  • Heat Rush: Ken's V-Trigger. After shouting "I've reached my boiling point!", Ken channels heat throughout his entire body, which powers-up all of his attacks and adds fire properties to them. As such, his regular Hadoken, Tatsumaki Senpukyaku, and Shoryuken, transform into the Shakunetsu Hadoken, Flaming Tatsumaki Senpukyaku, and the Flaming Shoryuken.
  • Heat Rush

    Heat Rush

*Hadoken: The standard fireball of the Street Fighter series. The fighter channels all of their Ki and willpower into the palms of their hands, before unleashing a ball of blue energy towards their target. Though it's called a fireball, the Hadoken is said to be room temperature, and the feeling of its impact changes according to the user; for instance, Ryu's Hadoken feels like a hard kick with lingering pain, while Ken's Hadoken feels like a hard punch with brief pain.

  • Hadoken

    Hadoken

  • Reppu Hadoshu: A variant of the standard Hadoken, that Ken has created during his training. Focusing his Ki and his willpower into his feet instead of his fists, Ken is able to unleash Hadoken blasts from his feet during kicks, allowing for an attack sure to catch his foes off-guard.
  • Reppu Hadoshu

    Reppu Hadoshu

  • Shakunetsu Hadoken: Often called the Red Hadoken, this move is a special variant of the standard Hadoken. Imbuing the standard blue Hadoken with thermal energy, it transforms into an orange ball of fire. Upon activating his Heat Rush, all of Ken's attacks gain a fiery property, which thus grants him the Shakunetsu Hadoken that he doesn't normally have. Unlike the regular Hadoken, this variant will hit an opponent several times before dispersing.
  • Shakunetsu Hadoken

    Shakunetsu Hadoken

  • Tatsumaki Senpukyaku: Also known as the Hurricane Kick, this special move has the user fly through the air with one leg extended out. The Tatsumaki Senpukyaku can act as a way to briefly soar across surfaces, as it can be used both the ground and in the air with ease. Much like the other techniques of Ansatsuken, this technique varies based on the user. For instance, Ryu's Hurricane Kick will hit once incredibly hard, while Ken's Hurricane Kick deals less damage but hits multiple times.
  • Tatsumaki Senpukyaku

    Tatsumaki Senpukyaku

  • Shippu Jinraikyaku: One of Ken's variations of the standard Hurricane Kick, which acts as one of his super attacks. He unleashes a flurry of kicks, before finishing with a rising Tatsumaki Senpukyaku. This move is quick to execute, making it useful in combos.
  • Shippu Jinraikyaku

    Shippu Jinraikyaku

  • Guren Senpukyaku: Ken's ultra attack, his most powerful variation of the Tatsumaki Senpukyaku. After pointing at his opponent with a cocky smile, Ken unleashes a barrage of flaming Tatsumaki Senpykyaku's across the ground, until one finally connects. Once it lands, and the opponent is sent into the air, he then finish them off with a final flaming kick.
  • Guren Senpukyaku

    Guren Senpukyaku

Other

Standard Tactics: Ken loves to show off during a fight, often opting to knock opponents out with a Hadoken before standing over them and laughing[70]. When facing an opponent he sees to be weaker than him, which are most people due to his large ego[71], Ken will merely dodge and play around until things get serious[72]. When engaged in a fight, Ken's main objective is to get into his opponent's face and push them into a corner[73]. While Ryu specializes in using his projectiles, Ken instead favors mastery over his Shoryuken, which he mixes with other agile attacks[74].

Weaknesses: Ken's natural fighting skill has fueled his giant ego, and he lets his skills constantly deteriorate due to spending time on the beach with Eliza[75]. Ken's heart is weak and can be consumed by his jealousy towards Ryu.
