Karin Kanzuki(神月 かりん) is a video game character from the Street Fighter fighting game series. Karin is a rival of fellow schoolgirl Sakura and has a similar outfit, complete with sailor fuku (this one being predominantly red and white with a blue bola tie), but uses the martial art style Kanzuki-ryū kakutōjutsu instead of the original style Sakura uses. Her hair is styled into long, oversized ringlets, and she occasionally wears a blue bow in the back. Due to the fact that she is from a wealthy family, Karin is quite snooty and thinks other people are her "commoners", or inferiors.

[edit] Story

Karin considers herself a rival of Sakura, who defeated Karin when challenged. Karin is from the wealthy Kanzuki dynasty (daughter of Daigenjyuro and Nadeshiko Kanzuki), whose motto is "All you need is victory" and alternately "The worst we'll ever be is the Best", and used the family fortune when attempting to track down a roving Sakura to challenge her again. Karin defeated Sakura, but realized the victory was a fluke, and that the fight itself is more important, not winning or losing (Ken Masters told her this previously). She lives by her motto more than the rest of her family, as she took majority control of her father's company from under his nose in a hostile takeover (ironic since he was the one to drive that philosophy into her).
