Line 30:
* [[Gainax Ending]]: {{spoiler|Bison coming at Ryu with a semi-truck}}.
* [[Heroic Build]]: The number of guys in this movie who ''aren't'' utterly ripped to shit can be counted on one hand. Notably, Sagat and Bison take this to almost [[Top-Heavy Guy]] proportions.
* [[Hunk]]: Ryu, Ken Masters, D.J., Guile, and Vega, who's a rare villainous example.
* [["I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight]]: Ryu with Ken who's been brainwashed by M. Bison.
* [[Improvised Weapon]]: After being wounded by Vega's claw, a slightly ticked off Chun-Li retaliates by throwing her couch at him.
Line 36 ⟶ 37:
* [[Market-Based Title]]: Released in Japan as ''Street Fighter II Movie''. Retitled for its overseas release to avoid confusion with its live-action counterpart.
* [[Meditation Powerup]]: How Ken regains his strength and center after being nearly killed by Bison.
* [[Muscles Are Meaningful]]: All the male characters plus Cammy.
* [[Muscles Are Meaningless]]: Chun-li is less ripped than Cammy yet lifted and threw a couch at Vega and was the one who defeated him by repeatedly kicking him through a wall.
* [[Never Bring a Knife to A Fist Fight]]: One thug tried to use a knife on D.J. It ends with the thug knocked out with a kick to the face.
* [[Not Worth Killing]]: What Bison thinks of Guile after beating him.
* [[One-Scene Wonder]]: Given that the film's producers were tasked at trying to fit in all 16 fighters from ''Super Street Fighter II'' into the film somehow, naturally a few of them got the short end of the stick. The Zangief vs. Blanka match in particular bears no significance to the plot. Since ''Super Street Fighter II Turbo'' was barely announced right after the film has just started the production, the only way the animators could include Akuma in the movie without making his presence feel shoehorned was to include him as a background extra in Calcutta.
