Introduction
Always known as the "joke character" of the Street Fighter series, Dan Hibiki first appeared in Street Fighter Alpha. His trademark is his bright pink gi and his neverending supply of funny taunts. Capcom created him as a way to take a friendly jab at rival fighting game mogul SNK (Dan specifically mocks the Kyokugen characters like Ryo Sakazaki and Robert Garcia; he even sports a similar hairstyle and facial structure to Robert). Dan's moves have always been shallow mockeries of the "Shoto-type" moves. He hates Sagat for killing his father Go Hibiki in the fight where Go took Sagat's left eye. Dan is a former student of Ryu and Ken's master but was discharged from the dojo when the master saw nothing but revenge in his eyes. Since, Dan has practiced a self-styled art called "Saikyo" (or "Strongest"). In SFA3, Dan has already defeated Sagat and is now trying to find new students for his dojo. He is friends with Blanka.
