details

• The DVD released in the US by Manga Entertainment contains both the English and Japanese versions of the movie, presented on a double-sided disc. The English version on side 1 is the same one that was shown in the UK and is uncut, except that it is missing a brief shot of Chun-Li's exposed breasts during her shower scene. The Japanese version on side 2 however, includes the shot. Both versions were obviously taken from different sources, as the English side has artifacts of a PAL-NTSC transfer while the Japanese side was taken from a native NTSC master.
  
  
• Two versions have been released to video in the US. One version is not rated and recommended for mature viewers while the other is rated PG-13.
  
  
• The PG-13 version has slightly different text on the back of the box and a different design on the front. The Mature version uses red and purple and has a picture of Dee Jay, Vega and Zangief at the bottom of the front of the package, while the PG-13 version uses red and yellow and has Dee Jay, Ken, and Zangief pictured.
  
  
• The PG-13 has a lot less blood, is approx. 94 min. and has less harsh language. The Mature version is approx. 96 min., has a ton of blood, especially when Ryu fights Sagat at the beginning, has a lot of harsh language, and added footage to the Vega vs. Chun Li sequence. There are shots of her in the shower and more to the actual fight.
  
  
• In Japan, Capcom made a videogame featuring footage from this film called Street Fighter II: The Interactive Movie. In this game, you control one of Shadowlaw's monitor cyborg as he analyzes fighters and learn their moves while trying to track down Ryu. This game uses footage that is never shown in the actual film such as one where Gouki/Akuma throws a Hadouken.
  
  
• Both US versions (PG-13 & unrated) remove a double breast shot from the Chun Li shower scene.
  
  
• Although the UK VHS version is uncut and rated (15), the release of the 15th anniversary Hyper Street Fighter II video game (pal), which contains the anime movie as an extra, appears to be the censored American version minus nudity and gore.
  
  
• German VHS release was edited by ca. 8 minutes for a lower "Not under 16" rating. This version was also released on DVD.
