Street Fighter IV series

Prologue (SFIV)

(A S.I.N. Operative is talking to Seth in his office with his back turned)

S.I.N. Operative: "At the last minute, a fighter named Dan Hibiki managed to squeak by with just enough points to qualify. And also sir... Uh..."

Seth: (Rotates himself.) "Out with it. Speak."

S.I.N. Operative: "Among the more powerful entrants was a mysterious man who managed to completely incapacitate several of his opponents... It seems it was, uh... It's Bison, sir.

Seth: (Quiet, but visibly annoyed) "What was that?!"

S.I.N. Operative: "Sir, we are looking into it. I will notify you the instant that we know for sure."

Seth: "Whether this is true or not, this information cannot leave this room."

(Later)

Seth: (Thinking) "Foul ghost, why have you returned? Something must be done before the old Shadaloo rises again. I will show the world that Bison is nothing more than a ghost. Soon, they will see what true power really is."

Prologue (SSFIV)

"Juri... That power... That eye... She's no ordinary fighter. She is an untamed animal who seeks to destroy and consume all that enters her sight. And that includes me. Still, as long as I can manipulate her like a pawn in my grand game, I shall leave her to her own devices. She has altered her own body in her insatiable quest for power. She respects no law. No morality. She does whatever it takes to achieve her goals and quench her limitless thirst. In that way, she's no different from me. Of course, all of humanity walks that path, whether they admit it or not. Strip away the restrictions of law and common decency, and it becomes clear that the engine that drives humanity is their own selfish ambition. To achieve one's own goals necessitates trampling those of others underfoot. Yet mankind is all too anxious to label those who would do so as evil. What tragic irony. Humanity's defeat at my hands will serve to strengthen me. I will be baptized in the fire of their unabashed ambition and be born anew, ready to usher in a new age free from the restrictions of artificial morality. Ha ha ha... I can then hunt down this emotionless animal for sport and put her down for good..."

Rival Cutscenes

Abel: "That face... You're with Shadaloo, aren't you? My name is Abel. I'm looking for someone who knows who I am."

Seth: "Abel... It appears the outside world has softened you. I'll put an end to that right now!"

Seth: "Interesting. You utilize an unusual move set. It may serve me well to assimilate it."

Epilogue (SFIV)

Clone 21: "W-Why... We should all be... the same... 15...

Seth: (Angry, grabs clone) "Never call me by my number! My name is Seth. And I am unique. I am not a toy who can only blindly obey Bison's orders." (Kills clone) "Defy me and perish! That includes you as well as Bison."

(Later)

S.I.N. Operatives: "Hail Seth, our new lord and master..."

Seth: "All that I found unpleasant has been purged. From this day forward... I shall rule as emperor of planet Earth."

Epilogue (SSFIV)

Seth: "Show yourself, Juri! Shadaloo murdered your parents and took your eye, but they are no more. Are you through with your foolish games now, woman?"

Juri: "Let's just say I'm almost through."

Seth: "If you're planning to take down me as well as Bison, I'm afraid you've overestimated yourself. Or perhaps you've just come here to test me."

Juri: "Nah, I'll pass. I get the feeling I'll have more fun working for you."

Seth: "Really? Then do what you will. I certainly hope I live up to your... expectations, my dear."
