Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie HD Remaster Airing on Japanese TV

The HD remastered version of Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie is scheduled to make its television debut in Japan on Sunday, October 18. Broadcast network BS12 will air the classic 1994 animated feature for the first time on television, offering Japanese audiences a chance to revisit the film. This broadcast marks a significant event for fans of the franchise, as the movie has not appeared on U.S. television since June 30, 2008. The American broadcast history ended nearly two decades ago when the Sci Fi Channel aired the original version. The HD remaster has never been shown in the United States, meaning local viewers are missing out on this specific presentation. Directed by Gisaburo Sugii and animated by Group TAC, the film remains a notable entry in the series' history. It follows Ryu and Ken as they confront the criminal syndicate Shadaloo.
