Why does Ryu say "Scheiße" after winning a match?

[Johann Von Floydmann]

I know Japan loves to add German words into anime but is there a reason Ryu himself says that?

If it's the win quote I'm thinking, he's not saying anything in German. It may sound like it, but he's saying something along the lines of "Shisa" which is Japanese. It's an Okinawan-specific word for the lion statues that you so often see outside of their dojo buildings. Those lions are a symbol to keep away negative energy, or bad spirits. Perhaps it's something along those lines.

Honestly i had to laugh out lout when playing the demo. The way he says it is awesome too. "Schisser!"
And BTW: Of course its japanese...

Back in ye olde days, me and my friends thought Chun Li was shouting "HAHAHA...Schinken!" when doing her victory pose.

Why do Japanese people say Ohio so much? Do they really like the state that much!? /sarcasm


I highly doubt Ryu would say an impolite or offensive word for the solid waste material that is passed out of the body after winning a match.
