Terry Bogard and Mai Shiranui who disembark in DLC in Street Fighter 6, Ken and Chun-Li who will also serve as guest-stars after the release of Fatal Fury of the Wolves, all the indices lead to believe that Capcom and SNK will again collaborate together to get us a new crossover. CAPCOM VS SNK 3? SNK vs Capcom 2? A new title to start from scratch? I am persigned that the two studios are in the process of tating the field and seeing if these exchanges of characters will cause the hype and purchases of DLC. Let me fantasize and remember my adolescence, and I have to confess to you that seeing May Shiranuta land in Street Fighter 6, with the artistic direction of the game, I was already excited from the first trailers. It is true that the modeling of his face could be subject to debate and it is true that Capcom may have a little too rejuvenated the character. Frankly, when we see her like that, it looks like she is twenty years old, like 22-23 years old, while her version of Fatal Fury City of the Wolves, it seems 10 years more. It’s just in the detail of Nerd who fantasizes on May, but very seriously who never fell in love with the character when he was little?

Kawaii Kunoichi Shiranui
In this regard, I find that Capcom managed to find a good balance in its design, avoiding sinking into the slightly too naked side of its usual look of the 90s and what is expected today woman in a fighting game. She can keep her charm, her sex appeal, but you have to avoid doing in the vulgar and suddenly, Capcom did a good job. So to answer the question that everyone is asking, no, the gelatinous chest that rebounds constantly, it is not in this version of Street 6. Otherwise, the juvenile side I told you about, I find that we find him in the poses that we can do just before the start of the match, it’s Kawaii and it goes well. That said, costume level, May will be entitled to her usual classic outfit, but also the one she will wear in Fatal Fury City of the Wolves, the famous leather outfit that suits her perfectly. As for her short outfit and gender tank top she chill at home, it is just her starting pose, she will not be in the in-game game; At least, not at this stage. As usual, May will have 10 different colors per outfit, but for the moment, a ban on showing you.
Flame we
Regarding the gameplay, Capcom applied to the letter what they did with Terry Bogard last September. The SNKBOYS will indeed find all the move-set in May, without any exception. Kachôsen, Ryu-enbu, Hissatsu Shonibi Bachi, Hicho Ryu-en-Jin, we even have the little subtlety of the series of fans that she can send in sequence. Regarding his Furies, or rather the super arts to take over the vocabulary of Street 6, there too, it’s the same, we find the usual super-attacks, knowing that it is the Kagero No Mai which acts as Fury Level 1. In short, it is the May of the SNK games, with obviously less liveliness than it can have in a KOF, since we are in a street where it runs and it jumps less in all directions. That said, May has a little peculiarity in this street 6, it is that it has triggered its fury Level 1, it will then be surrounded by flames, which will allow it to buffer its attacks, that this Either special blows like super arts. She has 5 each time and it’s up to you to use them as you want. So indeed, one might think that this is a significant advantage that Capcom has granted him, but what do you want, they are SNK characters, they are made to be superior to Capcom characters, it has always been The case and I am not open at the start. Joking aside, May will be played like a shoto, so necessarily, it allows him to rank in the category of character Ryu, Ken, Luke and obviously Akuma. But in real life, May is I find even more advantaged than the basic shots, because it also has a lot of aerial blows, with a Dive Kick which is none other than its Musasabi No Mai, an air chop and its fury level 2 as in the air. Besides, if I do not say stupidity, but his unexpected Shonibi Bachi has not always been available in the air in the Kof, it seems to me that SNK has limited it a lot in most episodes, so so I no longer remember in which episode she could do it in the air, I have the flank memory.
Easter Egg
There is also a last thing that I wanted to slip you into May, it is that it has an attack that allows it to play with both plans, that is to say that it can send the Opponent on the back with this famous twist kick, which is none other than the equivalent of the C+d attack that we had in the KOF. Terry had a similar attack that sent the opponent back to the back and I find this wink really great, since it refers to the gameplay of the Fatal Fury games, which I remind you were based on two distinct levels. In the first, we went from one to the other voluntarily, then in the last episodes, it was simply certain movements and blows, which allowed to switch backward or before to avoid certain attacks. Really the wink is extra. In any case, You have understood, May may become a very popular character in Street 6, with because it is a shotto which we can add a certain liveliness that other fighters do not have. To see now how pro-gamers will make this Kunoichi in the next e-sport competitions.
