Ibuki

Ibuki (いぶき, Breath) is a female ninja (kunoichi) in the Street Fighter series. She first appeared in Street Fighter III and is voiced by Yuri Amano in all three games. Ayumi Fujimura has taken over that role in Super Street Fighter IV.

Story
Ibuki lives in a village entirely composed of ninjas where she has been training since childhood. After doing the same routine everyday and attending a school for ninjas, she wishes to live like a normal schoolgirl.

Super Street Fighter IV
In Super Street Fighter IV, she sneaks away from her clan's summer training camp to compete in S.I.N's tournament, in order to meet cool and handsome guys. When the tournament is over, she realizes that she is going to be late for camp and attempts to sneak back in as if nothing had happened. However, she is caught by one of the camp's instructors.

Street Fighter III: 2nd Impact
Later in 2nd Impact, Ibuki was sent by her clan to procure documents from Gill's organization. These documents concern the "G-File" project which was responsible for creating Necro and Twelve. Gill voluntarily gave Ibuki the documents though the project was already underway by that point.

Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike
In 3rd Strike, Ibuki tracks down Oro to fight him for her ninja graduation exam. She fights well enough to pass, and moves on to go to a university. While there, she joins a club which, to her dismay, turns out to be run by her ninja clan as an additional training method.... and she clues in just as an upperclassman holds her at kunai-point.

Appearance
Ibuki is a beautiful young girl from Japan who is raised in a ninja village that is hidden from societies' watchful eyes. It is here; where she trains in the deadly art of ninjutsu. She has a slim, athletic build and her blackish/brown hair is held back tightly in a topknot that drops well below her waist. Unlike her other female counterparts in the same genre, Ibuki's outfit has a more traditional type of ninja dogi, consisting of a sleeveless upper garment, baggy pants, arm guards, and a mask that conceals the lower half of her face. Her footwear consists only of cloth bandages that are wrapped around her shins, ankles, and instep. Her winpose in the games and concept art reveal her wearing a tanktop and a white thong underneath. Even though she is a well-trained assassin, she is still a normal teenage girl, and states on several occasions that she finds her ninja garments ugly and her daily training strange. She will jump right back into her "normal" clothes when her regimen is over and/or when she wins a fight.

Gameplay
Trivia

Ibuki and Elena were the lone female characters in the Street Fighter III series until 3rd Strike, where they were joined by Makoto and Chun-Li.Ibuki is the oldest of the three females in Street Fighter III. She is the only one seen moving onto a university by the end of the series. Given Elena's official birthyear (1981), Ibuki is likely to be 19 years old in 3rd Strike.The other ninja in Ibuki's clan include Sanjou, Enjou, Genda, Raion and Homura Yuuta. Enjou is often mistaken for Geki from the original Street FighterIbuki has a pet tanuki named Don.It might be assumed that she had some sort of connection with Fei Long as shown in his Street Fighter 4 ending, but it could also be Guy since it was shown in Guy's ending, seeing as he uses kunai to stop Bison from taking Rose.Ibuki was the first character from Street Fighter III to ever appear in another game (which was Pocket Fighter).In Pocket Fighter, when Ibuki throws her kunai, her outfit changes to make her look like Rolento from Final Fight. Also in Pocket Fighter, what she throws depends on what level her Super Move is at. She will throw a kunai (lvl. 1), a shuriken (lvl. 2), or a tanuki statue (lvl. 3).She seems to have begun a friendship with Sakura based on their rival match in SSF4 and their similar background and interest as high school fighters interested in boys (or at least a particular boy in Sakura's Case) Also, when Ibuki defeats Sakura in a round with her Super Combo, she says "We should totally hang out sometime!" followed by her match victory quote saying "I never meet anyone cool at my school."</li>Ibuki's storyline in Super Street Fighter IV appears to be derived from her appearance in Pocket Fighter where she sneaks away from her ninja training to look for an ice cream shop. And like Super Street Fighter IV, she encounters Sakura for her rival battle and asks for directions.</li>Ibuki has a notable interest in boys. This can be seen in several of her win quotes in Super Street Fighter IV where she evaluates her opponents based on their looks, behavior, clothing, as well as their fighting performance.</li>Strangely, in the Street Fighter III series, Alex is the only character Ibuki has shown even a subtle hint of attraction to, although in her quote, she's mainly expressing her disappointment in his loss of "power instinct." This, along with their roles being the equivalent to Ryu and Chun-Li in Street Fighter III, could explain why the two became a popular fan couple for Jade Dynasty's New Generation. </li>Ibuki's 2nd alternate costume for SSF4 is similar to the clothes she wears in certain win poses in SF3. </li>Ibuki and Hokuto from Street Fighter EX are both voiced by Yuri Amano.</li>Ibuki was originally planned to be a playable character in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, but wasn't included due to time constraints.</li>Ibuki was confirmed (alongside Kuma from the Tekken series as her rival) to appear in Street Fighter X Tekken, making this her first playable appearance in a crossover game between Capcom and another company.</li>In the game Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 (an enhancement from the original game Marvel vs Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds), the character Strider Hiryu - coming from the eponymous game - will have an alternate color based on Ibuki's costume.</li>UDON Entertainment released a four-volume mini-series based on Ibuki and her storyline in Street Fighter 3rd Strike, where she is rivals with Makoto. Each volume was also collected into a single book for UDON's Street Fighter Legends series. She appears in volume 3 of this series, preceeded by Chun-Li and Sakura.</li>As stated by her win quote against him in Super Street Fighter IV, Ibuki actually finds Guy attractive, but believes he dresses nothing like a ninja and is personally too uptight in his way of the ninja. She also mentions that she finds Ken and Fei Long attractive in her win quotes.</li></ul>
