She’s still my first go to character in SFV. I sometimes mess around with Akuma and FANG, and I’ve been trying to develop a G and a Menat, but Chun’s mechanics are always the easiest for me. Especially her rush down ability.

Interestingly enough Ming-Na Wen is only a few years older than Chunners, so we literally know what a 50+ year old Chun-Li looks like, and she is looking mighty fine.  |

Alpha Chun-Li was the best Chun-Li.  |

Alpha Chun-Li was the best Chun-Li. Hmm, nah. I like the Chinese dress-skirt and stockings look better. But diff'rent strokes for diff'rent folks and all that. |

First lady of fighting games. Would be nice if Capcom released an art piece showing the characters if they had aged up from their initial appearance.

In belated celebration, here's Hikaru Shida (AEW) and Kairi Sane/Hojo (WWE) to mark the occasion.  |

Tip of the cap to the First Lady of Fighting Games. A character and design that's stood the test of time.

I used to work people in the arcades with her when the game first came out because no one knew how to defend that down+med kick move. They always blocked back+down instead of just back.

52 years old today and still doesn't look a day over 23! I mean, the lady who brought her to life on the big screen, Ming-Na Wen, is slightly older (56) and still looks like a million bucks. Edit: I now see I am not the only one to point this out. I must say that Chun-Li set a standard for female combatants in fighting games (that many, sadly, did not live up to). Also, her fight in the animated movie with Vega was probably the most high point of the movie (coming immediately after possibly the pandering low point, the scene of her showering). |

Weight: unknown always made me chuckle. I like to think it's because her legs are so strong they broke any scale she stood on, but sadly it was likely sexist reasons. |
