    Photo shop the bicyclist out of the picture. And she is not out of place. She is fine like wine with a nice bee-hind. The important thing that matters is she half chinese ? Because Chung Li is Chinese in the street fighter series. I think it would be nice if they found a Chinese lady instead of a French Canadian.

    Let the haters blogging commence !!!!

    Not good photo, the sole reason being the guy on the bike in the immediate background.

    Why didn't Sato yell the guy cycling before taking the picture? It would be much better photo.

    you are all wrong - the guy in the photo makes the photo - its the juxtaposition of it all. What is the guy looking at? he seems pretty mesmerized by something that she hasn't noticed. It a great photo - very Henri Cartier-Bresson-esque: capturing a moment. Though wouldn't expect the philistines around here to appreciate it.

    Reply to mechadamuramu>>> Of course she doesn't look like Chun-Li. CHUN-LI IS A CARTOON CHARACTER!! Cartoon character features are exaggerated by the animators who draw them that way for cause and effect. Movies are about good performances and telling a story, not whether the actor looks like the cartoon!!

    Movies are about good performances and telling a story, not whether the actor looks like the cartoon!! SUGGESTION: Return to real life and get one!

    It's difficult to think about real life in the context of Akinabara or Eurasian babes mate. There's no need of that dream breaking rant on this thread. I'm sure the poster experiences his heavy dose of reality everyday, just like the rest of us.

    The photographer should know better than to compose a shot like that. But the guy on the bike made my day. He's not even looking at her. He becomes the focus of the photo. LOL

    "He's not even looking at her." Oh he's looking at her - that is the tried and true Japanese peripheral vision technique.

    The man looks shell-shocked at the sight of a real, actual woman; he came to Akihabara to escape all of that.

    Hey Kristin Kreuk,

    If you are reading this, I got what you need.

    Since you have asked me not to call you at work, I have opted to discuss your fineness through this website.

    I know we have known each other for only one minute, but I already know you are the girl for me. You are the only one I want to laugh with, talk with, and grind on the dance floor with. You are the only one I want to ride... with.

    Do not doubt my words.

    but anyone who uses the road daily should know that there no such thing! from drivers to pedestrians - no use of P-vision is evident at all!

    Hey, c'mon, the guy wanted to look, but he's thinking, "Oh, no, if that guy clicks the shutter now, all my friends are going to see I'm riding my sister's pink bicycle!"

    I agree with you guys that cartoon != real life, but I have seen casual cross-dressers look more like Chun Li than Kruek ever will. Now as far as finding one of those that's just as popular and just as good at acting may be impossible. I"ll still see the movie anyways, its going to be B-movie horrendously funny.

    There are a lot more and nicer pictures on imdb.com. Her surname is a typically Dutch name. I wonder how they pronounce it in Canada . . .

    They couldn't get rid of the otaku in the background or is he part of the shot?

    I don't like the shoes either. They don't improve her posture. She is 5'4'', 163 cm.

    I googled her and she looks lots more asian type on usual pictures. Maybe because of her short haircut. Anyway this picture is good and kind of funny :)

    "Sister's"? Hell, it's probably his mother's bike.
