Edmond Honda (more commonly known as E. Honda) is a video game character created by Capcom. He is part of the Street Fighter series of fighting games. He has black hair and wears only a blue mawashi. Honda's signature move is the Hundred Hand Slap.
Story
E. Honda trained his entire life to become the greatest sumo wrestler of all time. He received the second-highest title of Ōzeki. (In some versions, he is incorrectly stated as having achieved the highest title, Yokozuna.)Honda became upset that the rest of the world does not take sumo seriously, and vowed to prove that sumo wrestlers are the greatest fighters in the world. However, he has been largely unsuccessful in this endeavor.
Trivia
Wikibooks has a manual, textbook or guide to this subject:
- In , he wears a hakama instead of his "skirt."
- In the live action Street Fighter movie, Honda is depicted as being Hawaiian instead of Japanese. At the end of the film, he fights Zangief.
- In the 1993 City Hunter live action movie, an accident transformed Jackie Chan into a number of Street Fighter characters including E. Honda. As Chan is a spokesman for the Honda's rival Mitsubishi, on screen E. Honda's name is spelled "E. Honde."
- He is an acquaintance of Ryu. In Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie, he's portrayed seemingly like an old friend of Ryu's. He wins a match against Dhalsim, mainly because Ryu's power acted as a distraction (to the point where Dhalsim was forced to throw the fight). Honda hands Ryu half the money, feeling as though he owes it to him for the win, and exclaims that "Japanese fighters gotta stick together... 'cause we're BROTHERS!!" before bursting into hearty laughter.
