Revision as of 02:21, 30 May 2020
Lee (李) is a non-playable character from the Street Fighter series who only appeared in the original Street Fighter game as one of the ten computer-controlled opponents.
Story
Lee is a Chinese martial artist who participated in the first World Warrior tournament but ends up losing to Ryu.
The twin brothers Yun and Yang from Street Fighter III are his nephews. Yun is visually similar to Lee (ponytail, blue cap), and his dashing punch special move is similar to Lee's dashing punch.
Lee is now semi-retired and runs a real estate agency while training himself in the art of the Drunken Fist.[1]
Other appearances
Sakura Ganbaru
Lee battled Sakura in the Sakura Ganbaru manga.
SNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters Clash
He also makes an appearance as a card in SNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters Clash.
Street Fighter Legends: Chun-Li
Lee also makes an unnamed appearance in the UDON comic, Street Fighter Legends: Chun-Li in which he is shown challenging Fei Long to a fight at the unveiling of a Chinese art exhibition. Lee passionately questions Fei Long's right to present the exhibit, believing that he is merely an actor without real martial skill. The two fight right in the middle of the presentation, with Fei Long easily emerging the victor.
Trivia
- A character of the same name from SNK's fighting game series, Art of Fighting, shares more than few visual traits with Lee. This might be more than just coincidence, since it's known fact that the development team that worked on the original Street Fighter left Capcom and joined SNK.[citation needed]
- In fact, another character of the same name from Data East fighting game Fighter's History utilizes the same Dash Punch that Lee does. Since this was not the sole example of what Capcom believed to be infringement of copyrights, two companies have settled their dispute on court.[citation needed]
- The Great Wall stage in Street Fighter Alpha is highly reminiscent of Lee's background.
- In Yang's Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition ending, Chun-Li mentions that she is paying her respects to Master Lee, this could imply that she is visiting him.
