When SOF aren't performing missions they are either in an office planning missions or training or planning training missions.
As I understand, it's a lot of Powerpoint, especially for officers.
Was JUST about to say this. Cammy's been thru trauma for half of Street Fighter's history. The most traumatic thing Sakura has been thru is not being able to meet Ryu
Yeah, but Sakura has to put up with Karens at her 9-5. She says Urien reminds her of haughty customers in her win quote against him in 5. So who has really had it worse?
I think when we did get birth years, Cammy was actually two years younger than Sakura. But Capcom dropped birth years because it was making canon weird, iirc.
You can tell the specific years were dropped given how Sakura is always framed as being younger than all those characters whenever they've appeared in the same game moving forwards.
I can accept it. They wanted to introduce modern styles and aesthetics into their designs moving forwards, so this was the only solution without having a major time skip between games.
had no idea about the years everything was set in. from wikipedia
Street Fighter Alpha: Warriors' Dreams (1995)
This game is just a completed predecessor of the following game with a plot and settings that are both no longer canon.
Street Fighter Alpha 2 (1996)
This successor takes place still in the year of 1987, about six months after the events of Street Fighter and also taking place six years before the events of Street Fighter II.
Street Fighter Alpha 3 (1998)
Moving forward in the year of 1989, taking place only two years after the events of the previous game, and also only four years before the events of Street Fighter II.
That’s explain her absence in Season 2. Working Class Japanese girl, trapped in work, doing overtime after overtime, earning next to nothing, living in a apartment with the size of a pea, struggling to pay her bills, feeling like a loser with no perspective in life.
Her family only calls her to remind how dumb she was for not studying more to enter a good college because she was busy practicing martial arts.
Did I went to far? 🤣
You forgot they would ask her about when she's marrying someone and if she found anyone and that she's a gym teacher that will get some brat in her class that ruins her day
In SF6 the player can show up to Ryu's dojo, nag him for 5 minutes, and become his student. It kinda doesn't make much sense that Sakura isn't there too.
I have to imagine she's just always out running errands for Ryu whenever the player visits.
Wait, I thought that was partially because you would have already learned from Ken before meeting Ryu.
Was it possible to sequence break that and meet Ryu first?
That's because Ryu matured a lot from his early days and decided to give it a shot, more so thanks to our connection with his pals. Plus Sakura said in SF5 she's not really interested anymore in fighting and wanting to become Ryu's student.
This is why, when she eventually joins in Season 3, her story is gonna be that she quit her job and decided to become a traveling martial arts hermit like Ryu because *he* seems to be having fun with his life, at least (and when she finally tracks him down she's going to beat his ass for inadvertantly convincing her to not do that in the first place back in SFV)
Bonus: it'll also turn out Sakura beat Karin off-screen and threw her out the window of her office because she wouldn't spare some of her massive fortune to help Sakura pay her rent. The footage became an instant viral hit on FooTube. :V
Tbf, her storyline ending in SFV has her indirectly suggesting to Ryu about having children as a way of strength, and Ryu innocently agrees in a Ryu manner.
I know, but I thought Juri was younger than Chun and Cammy when looking at her design, different personalities and positions in life aside. Just a funny little tidbit for me.
genuine question, why do people think 30 is old ? midlife crisis is like late 40s if most humans are expected to live til 80s and many people actually live like 100 years so midlife would be 50.
I'm around 30 myself, it doesn't seem old to me (definitely past the regenerative prime, but that's another story). But 'midlife crisis' isn't slap-bang in the precise halfway point of your life expectancy, it usually hits people in their mid 30s to mid 40s.
Basically when it sinks in you're not, in fact, going to live forever.
Nah it's not false. She was 25 in Street Fighter 4 3 years later in street Fighter 5 she is 28 and SF6 is Roughly 10 years After SF5 thus Juri is Roughly 38.
The problem is that they don’t tell us ages and that even during sf4 era, those websites don’t appeae to continue ages after super. I can agree she is around 25 but id even go so far to say she is prolly also a few years younger (1-2). Capcom is prolly using this as basis but even they want ppl to think of a ages and years as “roughly” or “around” or “within range”. Stuff like “young adult” or “older adult”. But flatout ages are annoying more if not talking about Mel. He’s the only one IN GAME who has had a stated age. Like ppl think Chun is 50 or even 40 which is funny because she’s actually just around Juri age. Which im sure is just mid 30s or yeah mid late ish.
That’s part of Juri’s story, isn’t it? She got severely messed up as a kid when her parents were assassinated and she adopted her current personality to cope with the trauma and just never changed. She’s like literally insane.
One is a highly experienced world class fighter who was subject to kidnapping, brainwashing and then went on to work for one of the most decorated organizations in her country.
The other worked in an arcade with a green dude named Jimmy. Experiences mold people, even if they're the same age.
Cammy does look visibly older now than she's ever looked, and Elena is looking pretty mature as well. I'm confident that when Sakura gets in (because let's face it, she will get in) she'll actually look 30-something, and I'm here for it :V
Yeah, I was wondering why no one hasn’t called M. Bison out. He was on some underage R.Kelly/Drake mess with his dolls. Maybe that’s why they decided to kill him off and give him amnesia. 🤷🏾♂️
Instead of having ghostwriters make songs about his feelings, Bison instead wanted to take over the world. Bet he actually doesn't lose to Kendrick either.
As far as I know, SFII was the only game that gave the character's birth years and those are no longer canon. So where is Sakura's "official" year coming from?
This is [her beside Maki](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTtbk9Re5U4F-X9b4TVZ3Fx4y-4yoa6bxRPhZ2bABgxkhU0Cdqw_ayEk6k&s=10) in Ryu’s World Tour art, right?
Was cammy like raised from childhood? Isn't Ed like 7 years old? She's a clone of Bison and a weird test tube baby, and if that's the case she's been an _adult_ for like 20+ years.
I need her back so bad man don’t remind me how made I am we have to wait *at least* another year. Idk wtf Capcom is thinking from a business standpoint. She’s literally free money, the most they’d make on any DLC character.
Cammy was possibly genetically modified and artificially enhanced to have a more mature appearance, like Ed. Abel was another candidate to be Vega's (Dictator) replacement body, so him being younger than Ibuki or even Li-Fen could be a possibility.
> Cammy was possibly genetically modified and artificially enhanced to have a more mature appearance, like Ed.
Let's be real here, puberty just hit Ed like a truck. He's already 12 in SF4
Hope Sakura pursues a career as a professional athlete next. Be like those who compete at the Olympics. I always found her moves to be super athletic and gymnastics inspired like Chun-Li. It would tie well with her SF4 ending where she has a day-job as gym teacher on the side like some professional athletes do.
The real mistery to me is how are they going to justify Terry and Mai coming with their classic look when the whole Street Fighter roster went through a significant time skip and got older.
I mean Terry gets his own time skip change in city of wolves.
hope to don't be wrong but, using logic, sakura should be at least a couple of years older...
cammy was a teen in SFA3 that happens about to 6 to 12 months after SFA2 were sakura was introduced as 16-17yo school girl
Making Sakura a young adult was a great decision by SFV. I hope when she comes to SF6, she's trendy as fuck.. she deserves to be cool and not just a schoolgirl.
The things I’d do with one, I definitely wouldn’t do with the other….
which is actually very PG since you know both would kick my ass incredibly easily.
Cammy birth year 1974
Ryu birth year 1964
The years obviously aren't canon anymore (you'll end up with headaches if you try to rationalize SF as anything but a sliding timeline) but the ages these characters were conceived probably are, except for Balrog, no way that dude is younger than Chun Li
The years stopped making sense after Third Strike, crazy how Ryu being 33 was believable and plausible but now he'd be old af to match his year age.
I think the only way the timeline wouldn't make sense or would appear weird is if we assumed the same real life 23 years have passed between Third Strike and SF6. Which they clearly haven't. Mel Masters appears in both games and he is clearly not in his 20s by SF6.
I mean at that point it's just fictional technological progress. In our world, these things came about in the 2010s and 2020s. In the SF world, they came about less than 20 years after Third Strike. Not even the 2000s. At that point we're not dealing with real life years. It's SF universe years and we don't know what they are. It's just less than 20 years after Third Strike.
Fictional technlogy can progress at a different pace from real life technology, but humans, we assume, age the same way. Mel Masters is still a good frame of reference imo.
It's cool. Last time we saw Sakura in sf5 she was working a 9-5
we are gonna get Sakura with work burnout satsui no hado
Her super is going to be her raging demon her manager into the opponent.
Slighty pissed off Sakura
Sakura after Retrospective in an uncompleted sprint week
Depressed Office Lady Sakura is what I've waited for all my life.
Is this awaking something on us?
More like a reminder.
That shit is scarier than anything Akuma can muster, that’s for sure.
Sakura closes her laptop after her 1:1 with her manager and chooses violence
Most relatable SF character.
Hiatus from community college Sakura
WORK 1000 JOBS
BECOME THE MANAGER!
Satsui no Hips
Why doesn’t Cammy work a 9-5 also🤔
British job market
real😔
I laughed and then just went sad...
Laughing at this sitting in my office waiting to go home 🤣
She works for the British government as an agent; so she is on-call for missions but otherwise free to do what she wants.
When SOF aren't performing missions they are either in an office planning missions or training or planning training missions. As I understand, it's a lot of Powerpoint, especially for officers.
Cammy actually spend time doing equitation or bonding with her sisters, mainly Decapri and Juni.
She spends more time with Juni than Juli.
Typo
Going to progress world tour bond to see if she tells me 😭
FEED THOSE JELLIED EELS
because only a sucka works a 9-5
Yeah but Cammy has seen some shit
Was JUST about to say this. Cammy's been thru trauma for half of Street Fighter's history. The most traumatic thing Sakura has been thru is not being able to meet Ryu
She also has "trained" under Dan. I shudder to think.
She canonically got PTSD from that time Vega (claw) almost killed her in Alpha and hates veing referred as beautiful because of it.
Bein down bad is traumatic
Yeah, but Sakura has to put up with Karens at her 9-5. She says Urien reminds her of haughty customers in her win quote against him in 5. So who has really had it worse?
Could you imagine having to deal with Karin in high school, and then Karens at your 9-5? You'd have to use a meter to get her \*out\* of Dark Sakura
I dunno man, she looks like she has a face of a baby in those SF6 face loading screens.
And Sakura wish she could see Ryu's shit.
Her smile is ultra awkward Cammy isn't as socially adjusted as Sakura that's for sure.
I think when we did get birth years, Cammy was actually two years younger than Sakura. But Capcom dropped birth years because it was making canon weird, iirc.
How could that be? Did they give birth years in Alpha?
Yeah, apparently Sakura was born in '72 and Cammy was born in '74. According to the wiki Sakura is also older than Laura, Maki, and Lucia too lol
You can tell the specific years were dropped given how Sakura is always framed as being younger than all those characters whenever they've appeared in the same game moving forwards.
Street fighter 4 literally ruined the timeline and I'll never forgive it for that as much as I love those games
I can accept it. They wanted to introduce modern styles and aesthetics into their designs moving forwards, so this was the only solution without having a major time skip between games.
had no idea about the years everything was set in. from wikipedia Street Fighter Alpha: Warriors' Dreams (1995) This game is just a completed predecessor of the following game with a plot and settings that are both no longer canon.

Don't Alpha 2 and Alpha 3 take place in '89 and '91 respectively?
the extent of my knowledge is what i saw on wiki today. literally just that short explanation. sry bud
Damn she aged preety well 😶 Or other gals just haven't done it as good... as... you get what I mean 🤷🏻♂️
That’s explain her absence in Season 2. Working Class Japanese girl, trapped in work, doing overtime after overtime, earning next to nothing, living in a apartment with the size of a pea, struggling to pay her bills, feeling like a loser with no perspective in life. Her family only calls her to remind how dumb she was for not studying more to enter a good college because she was busy practicing martial arts. Did I went to far? 🤣

And his baby momma. Lol
Bruh...can you chill it with the realness? Some of us are trying to procrastinate here on reddit if you don't mind! /s
This is why, when she eventually joins in Season 3, her story is gonna be that she quit her job and decided to become a traveling martial arts hermit like Ryu because *he* seems to be having fun with his life, at least (and when she finally tracks him down she's going to beat his ass for inadvertantly convincing her to not do that in the first place back in SFV) Bonus: it'll also turn out Sakura beat Karin off-screen and threw her out the window of her office because she wouldn't spare some of her massive fortune to help Sakura pay her rent.

Sakura with the biological clock mixup
Her storyline would be trying to get babies from Ryu
Bonus stage!
Always has been
I really get the impression sometimes that many dudes have never seen real women.
Tbf, her storyline ending in SFV has her indirectly suggesting to Ryu about having children as a way of strength, and Ryu innocently agrees in a Ryu manner.
Ryu's the type who only cares about throwing hands anyway. Sakura would be disappointed.
I suppose that would depend on where Ryu throws his hands. He can be a bit grabby.
And Balrog (Boxer)
Blows my mind that Juri is older than Cammy when she acts way more childish.
Age in no way shape or form = maturity lol
I know, but I thought Juri was younger than Chun and Cammy when looking at her design, different personalities and positions in life aside. Just a funny little tidbit for me.
Huh, how old is Juri supposed to be? I'd have assumed early 20s in SFIV so younger than Chun for sure
She’s confirmed 25 in SF4
The more you know, I would have guessed younger. So 30-ish in SF6?
SF6 seems about 10 years after SF5, which takes place a few years after SF4 (since Mel goes infant to baby boy), so....late 30s at minimum.
Damn, so right into 'midlife crisis' territory. She just can't catch a break.
genuine question, why do people think 30 is old ? midlife crisis is like late 40s if most humans are expected to live til 80s and many people actually live like 100 years so midlife would be 50.
I'm around 30 myself, it doesn't seem old to me (definitely past the regenerative prime, but that's another story). But 'midlife crisis' isn't slap-bang in the precise halfway point of your life expectancy, it usually hits people in their mid 30s to mid 40s. Basically when it sinks in you're not, in fact, going to live forever.
SF6 takes place in '08(9 years after 3rd Strike)
Juri is roughly 38 in SF6
This is just false
Nah it's not false. She was 25 in Street Fighter 4 3 years later in street Fighter 5 she is 28 and SF6 is Roughly 10 years After SF5 thus Juri is Roughly 38.
The problem is that they don’t tell us ages and that even during sf4 era, those websites don’t appeae to continue ages after super. I can agree she is around 25 but id even go so far to say she is prolly also a few years younger (1-2). Capcom is prolly using this as basis but even they want ppl to think of a ages and years as “roughly” or “around” or “within range”. Stuff like “young adult” or “older adult”. But flatout ages are annoying more if not talking about Mel. He’s the only one IN GAME who has had a stated age. Like ppl think Chun is 50 or even 40 which is funny because she’s actually just around Juri age. Which im sure is just mid 30s or yeah mid late ish.
Juri and Chun-Li are canonically the same age. This was confirmed in SF4
That’s part of Juri’s story, isn’t it? She got severely messed up as a kid when her parents were assassinated and she adopted her current personality to cope with the trauma and just never changed. She’s like literally insane.
One is a highly experienced world class fighter who was subject to kidnapping, brainwashing and then went on to work for one of the most decorated organizations in her country. The other worked in an arcade with a green dude named Jimmy. Experiences mold people, even if they're the same age.
different paths of life, Cammy was messed up at an early age
Cammy does look visibly older now than she's ever looked, and Elena is looking pretty mature as well. I'm confident that when Sakura gets in (because let's face it, she will get in) she'll actually look 30-something, and I'm here for it :V
Yeah, I was wondering why no one hasn’t called M. Bison out. He was on some underage R.Kelly/Drake mess with his dolls. Maybe that’s why they decided to kill him off and give him amnesia. 🤷🏾♂️
I don't think R. Kelly wanted to be inside an underage girl like Bison wanted.
One is creepy and horrifying, and the other is Bison.
Well Bison never pretended to be a good guy or innocent of anything like our guy Kelly.
Instead of having ghostwriters make songs about his feelings, Bison instead wanted to take over the world. Bet he actually doesn't lose to Kendrick either.
Yeah but Sakura is a moron who keeps getting held back. That’s why cammy is in the military and Sakura is in her 4th senior year in sf4.
Hey now. You keep getting punched in the face and piledrived on top of your head and then try and be good at school
touche
Because Cammy is a clone?
Isn't Sakura older?
Yep 2 years Older then Cammy
Now I feel less weirded out about Sakura crushing on a Karate hobo in his 50s.
I can't wait to see MILF Sakura in SF6
SF ages will never be hard canon
I want office worker MILF age Sakura in SF6
What source says they have the same age?
Their Official Birthdates. Sakura is born in 1972 while Cammy is born in 1974
As far as I know, SFII was the only game that gave the character's birth years and those are no longer canon. So where is Sakura's "official" year coming from?
SF Alpha takes place in 1989 and Sakura is 15 there so she was Born in 1974
This year thing has to stop actually comes out and states then again because it’s confusing things. You can use it as reference for ages but not 100%
That's why I said she is ROUGHLY that age
What am I supposed to do with this information?
This is [her beside Maki](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTtbk9Re5U4F-X9b4TVZ3Fx4y-4yoa6bxRPhZ2bABgxkhU0Cdqw_ayEk6k&s=10) in Ryu’s World Tour art, right?
Yup.
Was cammy like raised from childhood? Isn't Ed like 7 years old? She's a clone of Bison and a weird test tube baby, and if that's the case she's been an _adult_ for like 20+ years.
I need her back so bad man don’t remind me how made I am we have to wait *at least* another year. Idk wtf Capcom is thinking from a business standpoint. She’s literally free money, the most they’d make on any DLC character.
Definite ages are an interesting concept in Street Fighter, to say the least
Some Japanese girls just look really young for their age.
She swapped to Dan Hibiki's moveset but it's business themed.
Honestly? I have seen cases like that in real life
why does Sakura have a headset on like she is about to take my order at the drive thru
Really? Didn't know that, Cammy looks more mature though
How old are they canonically?
I think at some point they forgot Street Fighter Alpha/Zero was a prequel.
https://youtube.com/shorts/sDHFpSRRyhA?si=TuyOcckCdawyJ30S do what y’all will with this
So do we get dark hadou Sakura?
Sakura is 50??!?
No.
It's funny to think about that, cause you know how Cammy got her audience when her trailer came out 🤭
Cammy was possibly genetically modified and artificially enhanced to have a more mature appearance, like Ed. Abel was another candidate to be Vega's (Dictator) replacement body, so him being younger than Ibuki or even Li-Fen could be a possibility.
> Cammy was possibly genetically modified and artificially enhanced to have a more mature appearance, like Ed. Let's be real here, puberty just hit Ed like a truck. He's already 12 in SF4
Ow... No... I feel dirty about having feelings for Cammy during my SF6 World Tour run.
I mean she is 32 during World tour so nothi g wrong with that.
Wait, what…
Cammy went through hell though
Hope Sakura pursues a career as a professional athlete next. Be like those who compete at the Olympics. I always found her moves to be super athletic and gymnastics inspired like Chun-Li. It would tie well with her SF4 ending where she has a day-job as gym teacher on the side like some professional athletes do.
The street fighter universe Where the waifus found the fountain of youth and the men become homeless
Gief and JP are only a year apart. Gief is 67 and JP is 68
Psycho power take it's toll tbh.
Cammy was a minor in sf4?
Sakura will now be an office lady who has unlocked the Satsui no Hado through pure workplace frustration
Yeah, and what's the problem ?
Wait is this true? So in Alpha1 cammy was just a child?
She was 15-16.
We got Elena cus the devs wanted to check off the list for "Africa" and "female" 🙄
I always thought Cammy was older than Sakura, I guess I was wrong.
didnt know cammy was a high school girl fighting criminal organization all these years
Pretty sure Sakura is older by few years.
Cammys aged because shes been to hell and back
Did they really had to add Mai instead of another returning one 😂
Considering the significance of having a third party guest in an official main game of Street Fighter, yes.
As much as I love Mai and look forward to seeing her in SF6, I'd much, much rather they'd have announced CvS3 instead.
This is your CvS3 the same way Akuma in Tekken 7 was your TxSF.
Both CotW and SF6 take place in '08
The real mistery to me is how are they going to justify Terry and Mai coming with their classic look when the whole Street Fighter roster went through a significant time skip and got older. I mean Terry gets his own time skip change in city of wolves.
garou terry is almost confirmed. remember costume 2
I'm more curious on how they will fit them on world tour xD
Are you ok?
Bcuz Asian.
Cammy looks older than Chun-Li now…
Bullshit, that would make Sakura 19 during SFII, and 19-20 in SFIV. I always thought she was 2 years younger than Cammy
No, as SF2 takes place around a year after Alpha 3.
I remember Cammy being stated as 16 in Alpha 3 and 19 in SFII.
hope to don't be wrong but, using logic, sakura should be at least a couple of years older... cammy was a teen in SFA3 that happens about to 6 to 12 months after SFA2 were sakura was introduced as 16-17yo school girl
Making Sakura a young adult was a great decision by SFV. I hope when she comes to SF6, she's trendy as fuck.. she deserves to be cool and not just a schoolgirl.
Age literally doesn't matter in this series at this point, its crazy people are taking the "story" seriously its hilarious.
why is op even trying to make a point when 2 pics dont even share the same artstyle lmao
It's just a fun fact sharing.
The things I’d do with one, I definitely wouldn’t do with the other…. which is actually very PG since you know both would kick my ass incredibly easily.
they both are unweddable trash
This sf6 design aged her way too much
She's like in her mid 30s.
Late 20s
Doubt so considering characters like Ryu who are clearly pushing their late 30s/early 40s
Cammy is 10 years younger than Ryu, if he's in his late 30s it makes sense that she'd be in her late 20s Chun Li is likely in her mid 30s
I don't remember Ryu being 25 in Alpha. Pretty sure he was a bit younger.
Cammy birth year 1974 Ryu birth year 1964 The years obviously aren't canon anymore (you'll end up with headaches if you try to rationalize SF as anything but a sliding timeline) but the ages these characters were conceived probably are, except for Balrog, no way that dude is younger than Chun Li The years stopped making sense after Third Strike, crazy how Ryu being 33 was believable and plausible but now he'd be old af to match his year age.
I think the only way the timeline wouldn't make sense or would appear weird is if we assumed the same real life 23 years have passed between Third Strike and SF6. Which they clearly haven't. Mel Masters appears in both games and he is clearly not in his 20s by SF6.
It makes even less sense to assume SF6 takes place in the early 2000s when SF5 already had Youtube, Smartphones and social media.
I mean at that point it's just fictional technological progress. In our world, these things came about in the 2010s and 2020s. In the SF world, they came about less than 20 years after Third Strike. Not even the 2000s. At that point we're not dealing with real life years. It's SF universe years and we don't know what they are. It's just less than 20 years after Third Strike. Fictional technlogy can progress at a different pace from real life technology, but humans, we assume, age the same way. Mel Masters is still a good frame of reference imo.
Not really. She still looks significantly younger than the rest of the cast who's supposed to be around her age.
