ISBN #: 4-88199-188-4
Author: (Anthology)
Publisher: Shinseisha
Label: Gamest Comics
Release Date: 10 August 1995
Price: 780 yen

Iwa says - It is a collection of 15 short stories with one yon koma section and 6 pages of black and white full page illustration (Morrigan, Felicia, Lei Lei and Lin Lin, CL, Cammy and Rose). And 5 pages which introduce some other Capcom gals from familiar as well as obscure (to me) games. I managed to get a Chinese edition for this. Notable stories include:

- A fight between the original version of CL against Morrigan. Includes various version of CL watching the fight.
- Capcom guys in drag trying to outdo the girls. Of which Ryu (resemble Sakura) is kinda cute, Honda rather pretty, Fei Long does not do CL justice, Gallon is rather pretty. And the prettiest guy would have to be Balrog (Vega)
- Morrigan's story and her fight against her mirror image

- My fave piece CL's story. Her fight with Cammy and Ryu (It upsets her that Ryu didn't fight back) and the things they said to her. Both had asked her what is next after defeating Vega (Bison).
- The Jiang Shi(term for the chinese walking corpse. it beats calling them zombies) sisters' story. It tells of why Lei Lei and Lin Lin took that path. And their mother(resembles CL but that's just the buns talking) sacrificing herself to save the village.

Iwa says - It is a collection of 18 short stories with a section of yon koma manga. 4 pages of black and white illustration (well technically 3 considering one piece is a 2-page art. Notable stories:

- My fave piece. An RCL one. CL wrote a letter to Ryu telling him of how she is now a normal girl and of how the things he said had help her understand things better. And the reason she wanted to be a normal girl. She wishes to see him again. And when they actually bump into each while CL was chasing after a snatch thief......
- CL as the eldest of five sisters (Morrigan, Felicia, Cammy and Lei Lei in that order). Story starts with Cammy finding a pic of young CL(SFZ) with some guy whom they believe is her boyfriend and they made it their job to find out who he is. And as things go they found CL in a fight with someone who was impersonating Ryu. As for the actual Ryu, he's around.

Dash Taisen - The second (and final) volume of Nakahira Masahiko's Street Fighter ZERO manga series.

Iwa says - Because of Balrog(Vega)'s doing. CL's involvement had the ceiling to slowly descend to crush them unless she beats Sodom. One way to save her is for Ryu to fight Adon. but Adon for the sake of fighting SnH Ryu crushes the remote control and ended Ryu's hope of saving CL and gang. And that made the SNH resurface. Somehow Sodom saved the day and CL rushes over to Ryu's stage after handing Cammy to Ken.

But even when SnH Ryu sees CL safe and sound he is still unable to stop the rage. and Guy drops in and somehow stop the rage bringing back regular Ryu. Back to Japan CL teams up with Nash while Rose grabs Ryu over to another spot where she fights Vega. Apprently around here at the end of that fight and Vega had Ryu pinned. Sakura (Kei is with her) is around and tries to help but Vega flick her off and beats her up some. But before Vega crushes Sakura, Ryu stops him. Sakura soon wakes and witness the fight between Ryu and Vega
