Comments from the members:
Ai-kid
“I’m really sorry that the live concert was cancelled, but the real thrill of Street Fighter II is to make effective use of the cancellation and lead to a deadly counter attack for the win. Please look forward to our escape from the brink of death with a killer Shoryuken!

Cyborg Joe
“I’m sad that the live show will be canceled, but it’s like a dream to be able to perform in the ‘Street Fighter II’ game! The Singularity is finally here! Plus, it’s free for everyone. So check it out without hesitation or regret!”
