Rival Schools... I'll never understand why Capcom has pretty much abandoned this series. Being in high school when this first came out was just magical.

They just Sakura and ran with it.

Was that her first appearance? I remember that and Alpha around the same time.

No, Rival Schools was several years later. She's Hinata's cousin or something and is in the console port as a cameo.

No matter how much I hope, I doubt I'll ever see a sequel.

Even though it's perfect for a wii or one of those other motion control peripherals.
