Elena Appreciation Discussion

[Shinrok]

i just love everything about her: her Fighting Style, her Looks and Personality and even her Theme and speaking of her Theme i hope we get something similarly cheerful and positive for her SF6 Theme

Isn't Akuma like three times her age?

Stop with the ageism, Peddie. Their age difference is completely acceptable, Elena is a fully adult woman.

exactly

[DANIEL RAIN]

Judging by how ugly "ALL" the characters are on this westernized awful game they will probably destroy Elena as well and yeah she's great, she can even deal with someone like Akuma without problems.

I'm sorry you can only find cartoon characters pretty.

Eeeeh, I don't see it. I think their relationship works a lot better as friends, since Akuma is still an old curmudgeon willing to die and kill to become "the Master of the Fist", but with the way Elena is always so positive he could maybe find there's still some humanity left in him. We saw traces of it in the way that he seems fascinated by how Ryu smiles just for the love of the fight, maybe Elena could draw a bit more of that out him.

But their personalities are still too far diametrically opposed for me to go "yeah, now those are some couple goals".

[Peddie]

That's probably a more important point, Akuma is almost guaranteed to be aromantic, rather than a romantic.

It's still feasible. It reminds me of Robert De Niro character in the movie Heat from 1995. He is a obsessed guy but he managed to fall in love with someone, even if at the very end, he succumbed to his obsession in detriment to his love life.

I can see the same thing happening to Akuma, falling in love with Elena, even joining Elena's bar business in some pretty African beach, selling his fruits inside. But when a strong opponent appears to challenge, he will abandon Elena, seeking the final fight.
