 Art of Fighting - Psychology Central   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The central story of the original Art of Fighting is a typical damsel in distress story set in the fictitious city of Southtown (a common setting among SNK games), where the duo of Ryo Sakazaki and Robert Garcia try to rescue Ryo's sister and Robert's love interest, Yuri Sakazaki.
Although the story starts this way, future games would focus more on the struggles of the Sakazaki family and their fictitious style of karate known as Kyokugenryu Karate (meaning "Extreme style").
This does create a discrepancy within Takuma's history, as he was originally a contemporary of Jeff Bogard, who is killed in the early to mid 80s.
