Street Fighter V Competitors Carry An Otherwise Messy Capcom Cup kotaku.com

Photo : CapcomCapcom Cup wrapped up a year of Street Fighter V over the weekend with an explosive grand finals match between Japanese powerhouses Kanamori “Gachikun” Tsunehori and Hiromiki “Itabashi Zangief” Kumada.
What either of these acts had to do with Street Fighter is still up for debate.
Well, apart from the random turntable scratch sessions that broke up the matches and also had nothing to do with Street Fighter, but yeah!
Atsushi Fujimura, the heir apparent to the Street Fighter V throne considered by many to be the best player in the world coming into Capcom Cup, ended up falling short and placing third.
In the end, Gachikun would defeat Itabashi Zangief by a score of 3-1, giving Japan its first Capcom Cup victory in the Street Fighter V era.
