    Wolf is my dawg and Brads my second but when looking at non Wolf or Brad videos on YouTube.
    1. Pai
    2. Jean
    3. Jacky

    esp. Jean, when someone has nearly mastered Jean its beautiful thing to watch. Very exciting character to watch with cool moves and combos, same can be said for Pai and Jacky.

    Interesting topic. My 3 would be:
    1. Lei-Fei
    2. Akira
    3. Lion (Good ones)

    And if anyone enjoyed watching Jean it would obviously be on their list because we can't play him /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/shocked.gif (save for a few lucky people)

    But yeah I enjoy watching Lei and Akira, their fighting styles are just fun to watch. Lion as well but only when its someone who really knows what their doing.

    1) Taka Arashi /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif i love that fat boy
    2) El Blaze
    3) Sarah

    For taka and blaze is always fun /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif and sometimes i enjoy watching jean, kage and eileen; but only if the player is really good.

    Ah my main is Akira, and today i started playing wolf

    Assuming I'm watching a good player, watching bad players never is that enjoyable.

    1. El Blaze
    2. Sarah
    3. Aoi

    The first two both just have so much style and when used well I can just imagine the frustration on the receiving end of the beating that just gives me a sense of joy that I can't put into words.

    An aoi who can throw back things often during a match makes me happy because they just look so sweet and it's demoralizing when your shit keeps getting tossed back at you.

    Since I don't have VF5, and the local Timezone arcade's closest thing to VF as Tekken TT in a T3 cab...

    Pretty much everyone.

    Being that I just like whooping ass with everyone but am not as good as I am if i played with my trio of terrific titans of tyranny (Shun, El Blaze, Eileen)
    I looove watching these guys fight:

    1. Lei Fei
    2. Jacky
    3. Shun Di...

    I know shun doesn't count but I must argue that his vids are really entertaining.

    Jean- He so amazes me that he will be the next character I play as when R comes out

    Sarah- When she is on a roll that flamingo stance is so fun and tricky to watch

    Lei Fei- Good lei feis when they come up really amaze me more than any other character available right now I don't play since his style is so fun to watch when it is used properly.

    Well a great Jeff is something to behold but since I can't say him I'll safely say.

    1. Shun - Before R added the floor rolling "hoy hoy" move I loved watching the drunken master. Most of his moves are just so random and entertaining to watch when a skilled player is using him.

    2. Eileen - Before she was kinda boring to me, but after R she seems to have gained so many more moves (or better move animations) because half the time she used to look like she was using the same move on you no matter what she did.

    3. Lei Fei - Am2 did such a great job with this character. I love the various stances he has and the new moves R seems to have added to him (The catch throw where he sits on his opponent is too sweet).

    Damn after reading your replies I must admit Sarah and Lei are pretty exciting to watch....esp. a really really good Sarah player....the way she switches up with the flamingo can be exhilarating. Same for Lei, I remember the first time I sah a real good lei player on YouTube. I kept saying "damn I didn’t even know you could that!" over and over. The catch throw where he sits on his opponent is pretty freaking sick!

    I like watching good Brad players.

    I don't play him though.

    1. Wolf - Throws, throws, throws.

    2. Sarah - Most Sarahs are a little too conventional, but there are always a few that take advantage of her various cancels and special movements.(Shou's Sarah for example)

    3. Lei Fei - His stance transitions flow like water, and the dance is funny.

    Honorable Mentions: Eileen , Jean(Better Jin).

    I agree. His voice is really annoying, oh I mean really funny. lol

    for me, Eileen's voice is pretty annoying in VF5R. does anybudy think something about her voice?

    Oh, is it?
    my friend actually told me that her voice is kawaii, but its pretty annoying for me somehow.

    1.)Jean Kujo-This guy, like Akira, hits very hard...Brutal for no reason, but watching him wreak his havoc is highly enjoyable.

    2.)Sarah Bryant-Watching someone who knows what they're doing with her is certainly a sight to behold...All the Flamingo switching and what not, I could never wrap my head around it, but it sure looks good..

    3.)Lei Fei-It's like watching "The Shaolin Temple"(Movie) all over again when watching Gordon Liu-er...Lei Fei fight...So fluid and powerful, true Shaolin Kung Fu brought to "virtua" life...

    1.Shun, a good shun user makes me want to learn shun.
    2.I hate to say it, but i like watching an excellent lion player. I hate the character/character model of lion, but...his mix ups flow a lot like my fav lei fei when someone is beasting with him. If he wasn't lion, i might actually like him.
    3.Goh/aoi/akira. These would have to be used certain ways as well as being good. Goh, offensively but capitalizing on opportunies to use his defensive abilties (ala Gentleman Theif). Aoi when shes use with lots of reversals and her evasive moves are being heavily utilized (ala DaBadSeed), and akira when someone is using his entire moveset and playing with variety in mind. I.E. not just doing 1 move or combo over and over.

    On a side note. I've never played a dominating Vanessa, or Lion. All the other characters i've played an a Top notch version of.
