Final Fight/Characters

Characters from Capcom's Final Fight series. This page deals only with the characters as they appear in Final Fight canon. For notes on their Street Fighter series appearances, please visit the Street Fighter character page.

Haggar
"An ex-pro-wrestler turned mayor of Metro City, Mike Haggar is the only hero from the first game to appear in all of the sequels. When the Mad Gear gang kidnaps his daughter Jessica and demands that he let them run free, Haggar says "no" and enlists the help of Cody and Guy to stop them. In Final Fight 2 he fights Mad Gear once again to rescue Guy's master and fiancée. In Final Fight 3, he faces the Skull Cross gang who invades Metro City. By Final Fight: Streetwise, he is no longer the mayor of the city and is now a dock worker and a wrestling trainer."


 * Ambadassador
 * Assist Character: To Kyle in the story mode of Streetwise.
 * Authority Equals Asskicking: You think he will bow down like a whimpering dog as 1) his daughter is held hostage, 2) his friend's fiancé and master are held hostage, or 3) a massive gang war erupts in the middle of his city? Hoo boy, have you got another thing coming...
 * Badass Mustache
 * Beware the Nice Ones
 * The Big Guy
 * Breakout Character: In the original game, the role of The Hero is played by Cody. But Haggar proved popular enough to take that role in following games, as well as representing Final Fight in Marvel vs. Capcom 3.
 * The Commissioner Gordon
 * Crossover: His appearances in Namco X Capcom, Saturday Night Slam Masters (which gave us a look at his actual wrestling career before he became a mayor, at least in the original Japanese continuity), and Marvel vs. Capcom 3. He can also be found in the UDON Street Fighter comics and in USA Network's Street Fighter cartoon.
 * Curse Cut Short: "You son of a... What have you done to her?"
 * Expy: Of "Sleepy" Estes.
 * Gentle Giant: Outside battle, the same arms of steel that allow him to literally snap villains in half give the warmest and kindest hugs.

 * Improvised Weapon: Pipes and 2 x 4 are his signature weapons.
 * Invulnerable Attack: His Spinning Lariat
 * Meteor Move: His Sky High Backdrop and Final Hammer in Final Fight 3.

 * Papa Wolf
 * Rated "M" for Manly
 * Retired Badass: In Streetwise, Haggar seems to have distanced himself from most of Metro City, saying many of its citizens have forgotten him. He now runs a gym ("Mike's Mat and Muscle") and a dock ("Mike's Maritime Maintenance").
 * Spin Attack: The Double Lariat.
 * Spinning Piledriver
 * Walking Shirtless Scene: Excluding Streetwise.
 * Wrestler in All of Us: Haggar is a former pro wrestler, and also a playable character in Saturday Night Slam Masters. In the second Final Fight game, he upgrades his piledriver to a Spinning Piledriver, similar to Zangief's in Street Fighter II. According to the manual for the Super NES version of Street Fighter II, Zangief copied his Spinning Clothesline (aka the Double Lariat) from Haggar's.

Guy
"A Japanese American Ninjutsu master dressed in a red ninja outfit and converse shoes. Guy is the 39th successor of the Bushin style of Ninjutsu, a martial arts style dating back to Japan's feudal age, Guy traveled to America to improve his martial art skills and found himself at Metro City, where he befriend fellow fighters Cody and Haggar and assisted the two in their battle against the Mad Gear gang in the original Final Fight to save Jessica (Cody's girlfriend and Haggar's daughter).

 * Assist Character: To Kyle in the story mode of Streetwise.
 * Badass
 * But Not Too Foreign: His nationality was listed as Japanese in Final Fight, but was changed to American since the Street Fighter Alpha series (implying that he became a naturalized citizen at some point).
 * Cloudcuckoolander: The Alpha version of Guy in the Game Boy Advance version (Final Fight One), who acts as if he was a time-traveller from the future literally reliving the past.
 * Crossover: So far, he's the Final Fight character with the most appearances outside of his main series: Street Fighter Alpha (all three games), Super Street Fighter IV, Namco X Capcom, and Capcom Fighting Jam/Evolution.
 * Delinquent: Believe it or not, he was one before being taken in as Zeku's pupil. As you can see, the training caused Guy to mellow out considerably.

 * Epic Flail: Nunchaku, his signature weapon in Final Fight 3.
 * Fragile Speedster: He is the fastest of the original three characters.

 * The Lancer: To Cody.
 * Meaningful Name: His real name in Japanese is actually Gai (spelled with the kanji 凱, which means "victorious", but more often rendered in kana as ガイ), but its romanized "Guy" to avoid the obvious mispronunciation.
 * It could also count as a reference to Guy Picciotto of Fugazi, like other characters in the original game who are named after or are references to musicians. Both have bangs long enough to cover their eyes.
 * Ninja
 * McNinja: Partially; he's a Japanese-born naturalized American.
 * Nice Shoes: As mentioned below, his Nike sneakers, to Memetic Mutation levels.
 * Older and Wiser: Granted, he was pretty wise to begin with, but Streetwise sees him training the next generation of Bushin genin.
 * Perpetual Frowner
 * Product Placement: In the original, Guy wore jika-tabi. From Street Fighter Alpha and Final Fight 3 onwards, he instead wore some Nikes. But hey, real ninjas wear Nikes.
 * The Stoic
 * Tall, Dark and Handsome
 * Wall Jumper
 * Warrior Poet

Cody
"An American martial arts expert, specializing in knife fighting, Cody Travers is a born street fighter who became known as the "Hero of Metro City" after rescuing his childhood sweetheart Jessica from the Mad Gear gang in Final Fight with his friend Guy and Jessica's father Haggar. However, he ended up becoming addicted to street fighting and, after breaking up with Jessica, was arrested by old nemesis Edi. E. He's then arrested again for taking the blame for a crime Guy committed(though he can escape at any time he wants), which led to the end of their friendship. Once again released from prison, Cody's fighting had taken it's toll on his knees so now he trains and lives fights through his younger brother, Kyle in ''Final Fight: Streetwise'."

 * Anti-Hero: After the first Final Fight. He's a Type III on the outside, but a Type II at heart.

 * Victory Is Boring: Cody is so addicted to fighting that he shows dark elements of this both in Streetwise and Street Fighter Alpha 3.
 * In Street Fighter Alpha, he is thrown in prison and manages to escape just as everyone starts fighting.

 * Wolverine Publicity: When Alpha 3 was released for the arcades, Cody was featured either featured prominently or specifically focused on in the promotional illustrations, despite not being even the highest profile new character to the game.

Bred, Dug, Jake and Simons
"The Goombas of Final Fight thugs, Bred and his head swaps Dug, Jake and Simmons are the low-ranking members of the Mad Gear gang. The only thing that's really notable about Bred (other than his dumb name) is that his car gets trashed in a Bonus Stage by the heroes.

 * The Informant: 2-Ill to Kyle.
 * Sunglasses At Night: 2-Ill in Streetwise
 * Who Names Their Kid 2p: Given that a fair deal is given about his name change, and that he didn't change his name to something that sounds very much like his original, 2P's name seems to really be 2P.

El Gado and Holly Wood
"Mad Gear's knife-fighters, It is revealed in Final Fight: Revenge that El Gado infiltrated the gang to kill Rolento who is responsible for the deaths of his family. Eventually Rolento made a deal with him and El Gado spared his life. They appear in Street Fighter Alpha 2 and 3 as two of his knife fighters that aids Rolento in battle."

One sex change later, she is disowned by her parents and became one of Metro City's homeless, until she started working for Mad Gear. She and her Palette Swap Roxy (who may also have been a man in another life) were the gang's acrobatic fighters. After Mad Gear's defeat, Poison develops a crush on Cody and purses him in Final Fight: Revenge. She realizes that Cody will never love her and after he's arrested, Poison moves on. Some time afterward, she reunites with her old partner Hugo Andore from Mad Gear, and together they make a legitimate career in professional wrestling, Poison being the manager and Hugo doing the work."

"The tropes below explains the long complicated story on why Poison and Roxy are transwomen/transvestites."

"Refer to this fan-made documentary for actual facts on Poison's gender confusion saga."

""She's a man, baby! But she's prettier and sexier than any other woman.""
 * All There in the Manual: Their genders. Character bios in manuals, guide books, and even design documents, clearly labels them as male (or "newhalf," a Wasei-eigo term for transwomen).
 * Ambiguous Gender: Roxy. While Poison is outright stated to be a transwoman, Roxy is left ambiguous.
 * Ascended Extra: From a regular Mook and cameos in Hugo's appearances in Street Fighter III and SNK vs. Capcom SVC Chaos, to playable in Revenge and Street Fighter X Tekken.
 * Attractive Bent Gender: This character profile from Card Fighters DS said it best.

""She may seem like a dynamite babe, but anyone who knows the real Poison will tell you she's anything but ladylike!""

 * Bare Your Midriff
 * Combat Stilettos
 * Crossover: Was supposed to appear in the cancelled Capcom Fighting All Stars before finally making her crossover debut in Street Fighter X Tekken.
 * Dropped a Bridget On Him: Much of the confusion of Poison's gender comes from Final Fight: Revenge, an American-designed 3D fighting game in which Poison was depicted as born female. The Japanese localization reverted back to her birth sex. Roxy's gender is classified "female" in the character bios of Capcom Classics Collection Vol. 1, but this is nothing but a Capcom USA retcon.
 * Expy: Poison and/or Roxy's younger sister, Poison Kiss in Mighty Final Fight, who is actually female..
 * Kick Chick
 * Kiss of Death: Complete with hearts.
 * Nice Hat
 * Palette Swap: Poison has pink hair, while Roxy has orange.

 * She's a Man In Japan: But post-op in the States.

 * Shrug of God: Adding more complexity to the gender confusion, at the 2011 Tokyo Game Show Yoshinori Ono said Capcom doesn't have an official policy to what Poison's gender is, stating that in North America she is a post-op. transsexual but in Japan she is a futanari who "tucks her business away to look female".
 * Stripperiffic
 * Underboobs: Both Poison and Roxy.
 * Villainous Crossdresser: Poison. Whether or not Roxy is one is up for debate.
 * Villainous Crush: On Cody, according to Revenge.
 * Whip It Good: In Revenge. In Street Fighter X Tekken she uses a riding crop.
 * Who Wears Short Shorts?: Hot pants to be specific.
 * You Gotta Have Pink Or Neon Orange Hair: In Billy's case it's green.

"Originally hailing from West Germany, the Andore Family are a family of hulking brutes that worked under Belger as members of the Mad Gear gang. They consisted of Andore, Andore Jr., Father Andore, Uncle Andore, and Grandfather Andore. After the fall of the original Mad Gear gang, Andore tried to pick a fight with Haggar on TV in Final Fight: Revenge, to no avail.

Pestilence
"Pestilence is the third of Father Bella's Four Horsemen Kyle will face in Little Italy. Unlike the other horsemen, Pestilence does not seem to have been originally human. Instead its body seems to be comprised of the corpses of GLOW victims. Initially, Pestilence fights very slowly by spilling acidic GLOW in the nearby area, throwing one of its many limbs and firing out explosive GLOW bubbles at Kyle. Kyle defeated Pestilence a first time, but the creature changed its form into a slimmer, more humanlike form. In this form, Pestilence used fighting combos, energy blasts and grabbing church pews to use as weapons against Kyle."

In addition to his physical attacks, Death uses his mutated bones from his body as weapons and can generate electricity from his body, to protect himself or harm Kyle. He can also eat GLOW-induced rats to regain life."

"Kyle faces the second Death on the roof of Father Bella's church. Death's attacks are all unblockable with his Hurricane Punch, Earth Splitter and Power Storm attacks generating green energy from his body.

"When Kyle faces Death, Bella, first stands on the sidelines, but after he's defeated once, Bella becomes more daring in the second round. As Death attacks, Bella stands a safe distance away, using a bazooka, grenades and a machine gun against Kyle while Death also attacks Kyle. When Death is defeated, Bella will inject more GLOW in his body to heal him, holding Kyle off with a sword. Only when both Death and Bella are defeated does Kyle win the fight."

Minor Fighters
"Three of the pit fighters Kyle fights in Final Fight: Streetwise are Handsome Bob, the Locksmith and the Ghost. Handsome Bob, whose not really that handsome is Kyle's first opponent who, when knocked down, gets up with a rising hook punch. The Locksmith is a black guy who is only slightly quicker than Handsome Bob and has a Flash Kick that can combo into an unblockable forward kick. The Ghost may just well be Joe from Street Fighter, but they really don't say in the game. He is a Muay Thai fighter under Vito Bracca who is a very quick fighter."


 * Extremity Extremist: Ghost, who has one elbow strike and kicks for the rest of the attacks.
 * Fragile Speedster: Ghost.
 * Jack of All Stats: Handsome Bob and the Locksmith.

Lou "The Skin"
"Lou is a tattoo artist in Metro City who has a number of tattoos and piercings on himself. He's a member of Guy's crew who uses capoeira as his fighting style. While Kyle was searching for his brother Cody, he finds a picture of Cody's with a mob's man with a tattoo. He asks the Skin about it in his parlor and unexpectelly clocks Kyle over the head with a cash register. The tattoo is revealed to belong to Guy. After some misunderstandings, Lou fights Kyle using his acrobatic fighting style and loads of kicks. Kyle defeats him and Lou becomes a pit fighter, Kyle can face in Japantown."

Cammy
"The final pit fighter in the game, Cammy takes a break from working for Delta Red to kick some ass in Metro City's Japantown district. Why is never explained, but it's not that important. Cammy uses many of her command and special moves from her Street Fighter appearances. Probably one of the more frustrating characters to fight in the entire series."

Jessica
"Jessica is Mike Haggar's daughter and Cody's ex-girlfriend who must have a damsel in distress sign taped to her back. She is carried off by Damnd in the beginning of Final Fight and taken to Mad Gear's hideout. When the heroes finally do find her, she is held tightly by Belger in his lap, but escapes after his wheelchair is broken. Ultimately, she is saved by Cody and the rest in the game's ending. In Final Fight Revenge she disappears which plays a central role in that game's storyline. It is never resolved in any of the characters' endings, but Haggar does rescue her from danger. Eventually Cody and Jessica break up after Cody couldn't give up his destructive behavior and she travels to Europe shortly after. She occasionally makes cameos in games involving Final Fight characters."

 * Shout-Out: The character resembles Ellen Aim (Diane Lane), the Love Interest in the film Streets of Fire (1984). The film has Ellen abducted by a motorcycle gang. Her former boyfriend Tom Cody (Michael Pare) has to face the gang to rescue her.

Rena
"Rena is Guy's fiancée and Genryusai's eldest daughter. Like Genryusai, she is taken captive by Retu during the events of Final Fight 2. Unlike Jessica and her sister, Maki, she and her father haven't appeared since."


 * Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: No mention of Rena is made after this game... despite the fact that by Guy's most recent appearances (namely, Super Street Fighter IV and Streetwise) they should be Happily Married, perhaps with kids of their own. It's one of the many reasons (besides Guy's possibly unintentional Ship Tease with Rose in SSFIV) that fans believe that only the first installment of this series is canon to Street Fighter lore.

Genryusai
"Genryusai is Guy's master and the father of Maki and Rena. He is taken captive by Retu and the revived Mad Gear during the events of Final Fight 2. Like Rena, he is never seen again after they were rescued. Note that in the later Street Fighter Alpha series, it is established that instead of Genryusai, a man named Zeku is the 38th Bushin-style master and Guy's master. As such, it is assumed that Genryusai was Zeku's teacher instead."

Kyle interrogates Vito about Cody's whereabouts after his kidnapping. Vito feeling disrespected has Blades take Kyle out of his sight. After Haggar tells Kyle to respect Vito, he competes in pit-fights for Vito for free, in exchange for info on Cody. Kyle wins the fights against the Ghost and Andore and gets the info he seeks and he lets Kyle keep his winnings as well. After an attack on Japantown, Vito sees Father Bella asking for guidance about the GLOW dilemma. Unaware of Bella's true intentions, Vito begins to pray at his suggestion."

Celeste
"Madame Celeste is a fortune teller in Kyle's neighborhood in Final Fight: Streetwise. Vanessa sends Kyle to her psychic parlor to get information on Cody's whereabouts. The mystic asks him to play a magic card matching game, before she tells him the future. Once Kyle is successful, Madame Celeste tells Kyle some information and gives him Cody’s house key. It is insinuated that she and Cody had been intimate. Afterwards, she appears in various parts of the city with Kyle having the option to play the matching game again, in which she’ll allude to what Kyle will have to deal with in the near future."

Paco
"Paco is a tattoo artist that lives in the same building as Kyle, and is trained as a boxer in Final Fight: Streetwise. If paid $100, he'll help Kyle save 2-Ill at the beginning of the game. He also helps Kyle by telling him about Lou "The Skin" designing the tattoo on the mysterious person in Cody's picture. He also trains people for money in Tiger's gym. At one point in the game, he asks Kyle to get rid of the cockroaches in his infested apartment to keep the health inspector away. Apparently, he "smells as bad as a bum at the Barfly, but at least looks like he can throw a punch"."
