Yang

## How Yang joined the Tourney

The Lee Brothers are relatives to their long-lost uncle Lee who fought in the first World Tournament.

While having been separated from their parents at birth, they are the honored twins of a certain neighborhood of Hong Kong, and are the beneficiaries of eight noteworthy and influential leaders of Hong Kong's underworld, who support them as their godparents. They own a restaurant, and are also active in their communities, helping maintain the peace and settling disputes.

While growing up, they were raised by their herbalist and acupuncturist grandfather, who also taught them the arts of Chinese Kung Fu.

He appears in Chun-Li's opening movie in Street Fighter IV with Yun. The twins also make a brief appearance in her Super Street Fighter IV ending.

In Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition, Yang, with his twin brother Yun, followed Chun-Li on her mission to take down S.I.N., with the pair thinking that anything or anyone Chun-Li considers worth fighting must be an interesting challenge. He also uses this opportunity to test his skills against other fighters besides Yun and his uncles.

After the adventure, Yun and Yang get into trouble because they wandered off without telling any of their uncles. As they get dealt their punishment, Yang runs into Chun-Li. Yang thanks her, stating he would not have fought such strong opponents had it not been for her influence. The siblings bid her farewell and hope to see her again someday.

Yang, along with Yun, entered the third World Warrior tournament to show their skills. They later found and fought Gill, who appreciated their effort and granted them leadership of their town. They passionately turned down his offer, since they only fought him to stop his maniacal plans.

While working one day, Yang had spotted a 47 year old samurai about to start a restaurant fight. He broke it up and found the warrior was named Jin-Emon Hanafusa.

## Character Select Screen Animation

### After the announcer calls his name

Yang does two sword-like swipes as the camera zooms saying "Got this one in the bag."

## Special Moves

### Tourouzan (Neutral)

Yang steps forward and performs an inward open-palm slash with his right hand. Pressing B again does with another slash with the left hand, then a third B press does the right slash again.

### Byakko Soshoda (Side)

Yang steps forward then pushes his palms out with his arms extended.

### Senkyutai (Up)

Yang rolls forward along the ground, and pushes himself upward with his hands while launching an upward kick. If he reaches the opponent while rolling, he will automatically kick. If Yang is in midair, he kicks into the air instead.

### Kaihou (Down)

Yang disappears in a blur, and reappears some distance forward.

### Raishin Mahhaken (Hyper Smash)

Based on his first Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition Ultra Combo. Yang adopts a snake-style kung fu stance saying "I'll show you!" then dashing forward with a hand thrust. If this connects, he will twist his hand and swipe it upwards, knocking the opponent up into the air slightly. Yang follows the upward swipe with a smaller Tourou Zan that leaves him on the far side of the opponent, followed by a vertical Tourou Zan, a jumping, flipping hand slash which hits multiple times, then another Tourou Zan ("Raishin...") that leaves him on the side he started on ("...Mahhaken!"), and finally the dashing pressure point strike from the Super Art version which sends Yang straight through the opponent before they fly back a few moments later in a similar manner to Gen's Zan'ei ("Looks like you couldn't avoid that one!").

### Tenshin Senkyutai (Final Smash)

Based on his second Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition Ultra Combo. Yang poses saying "Here I go!" then attack begins with a Senkyutai attack that hits twice. Yang follows the Senkyutai with a flurry of upward kicks before finishing with two forward high kicks to the face which sends the opponent hurtling away.
