Capcom Fighters Chats to Rashid Wonder, John Takeuchi, at Red Bull Battle Grounds
During a lull in the excitement and tension of Red Bull Battle Grounds in Seattle, Capcom community manager Matt Edwards got the chance to grab an interview with the young star from Japan, John Takeuchi. Dazzling fans with his hyper-aggresive Rashid play and his youthful charisma, Takeuchi has shot up the ranks of the Capcom Pro Tour leaderboard, with wins over old guard players like RB|Bonchan and high placings at tournaments like Canada Cup and First Attack.
In this interview, Takeuchi explains how he got into Street Fighter V, how Rashid’s backstory actually influenced his character pick, as well as admitting that he may not be the best Rashid in Japan, among many other things. The back and forth between Takeuchi and the translator during this interview makes for a natural and flowing conversation, resulting in some very in-depth answers. John Takeuchi is in the top 16 of Red Bull Battle Grounds, with his first match being against XsK Samurai later today.
