Michael Jackson-Ryu: Shinku Hadouken!




Undoubtedly the highlight of the day came in the form of a guy busting a move just oustide of Harajuku station, where all the Harajuku girls and cosplayers gather. At first I thought he was just a regular guy passing through the crowd, but he soon proved me wrong.

Creating some airspace with arm movement he cranked up his i-Pod and started a dance routine I can hardly describe with words. Kyle and I watched in awe and we deducted it had to be some sort of Michael Jackson music he was listening to. His white i-Pod had a red smiley face painted on and it was carefully tucked into his belt.

Just as it seemed he was all out of dance moves he called forth the inner strength and powered up to do a hadouken. But it wasn't just any regular hadouken. It had to be a super Level 3 MAX Shinku Hadouken! We were going to stay longer and watch the guy, but we couldn't hold our laughter in any longer.

It was like looking into an episode of Street Fighter: The Later Years. What happened to Ryu after he was done winning all the tournaments...? Why he's dancing on street corners in Harajuku of course! If we see him outside of Harajuku again I fully expect him to be doing a hurricane kick!

Your second photo of Ryu is almost too funny to ignore. It's like he's shouting one of those "OH!" by mj.
