Cammy has been wearing a high-rise leotard since her first appearance in Super Street Fighter II, although her original outfit appears to boast an additional inch of upper buttcheek coverage. Similarly, R. Mika has been wearing a high-rise leotard since her first appearance in Street Fighter Alpha 3, although again, the original version appears to feature ever so slightly more fabric.

In any case, both characters have a long history of baring their upper buttcheeks in Street Fighter, and by the time Street Fighter V rolled around, their animated butts have leveled up from pixelated blurs to clearly-rendered cheeks. In SFV, both Cammy and R. Mika’s nether regions also get treated to multiple camera zoom-ins during their special moves and victory dances. Their thongs get a lot of on-screen appearances.

Luckily for ESPN, which routinely airs beach volleyball matches, both characters have at least one costume that features a few more square inches of butt coverage.
