Abstract
Capcom released Street Fighter 5 Arcade Edition on January 17, 2018. It also launched STREET FIGHTER 30th ANNIVERSARY COLLECTION. This product is a compilation of 12 of the Street Fighter series. The Street Fighter series was refocus by this work. In terms of game musical, Street Fighter IV and Street Fighter V almost used the Street Fighter II's melody. This means that the theme music of each character of Street Fighter 2 has a great influence on the sequel. Therefore, it is expected that analyzing the theme music of the original Street Fighter II will inspire game music composers. As a result of studying series of Street Fighter, the difference of form and genre was remarkable.
