The nonsense begins Warning: Spoilers
When I was a kid, I used to hate the "Street Fighter" cartoon. Being a big fan of the games, and the anime adaptations (Both the movie and the television show) I was very disappointed with the G.I. Joe treatment that this series received due the influence of the awful (but hilarious) live action movie in which this was inspired.

However, in the recent years I started to appreciate this series, seeing it as one of the funniest unintentional comedies ever made.I mean, while this series is indeed pretty bad (With ridiculous plots, awful animation, an awkward character design, unconvincing morals and cheesy voice acting) it does have high amounts of entertainment value, being one of the most hilarious things that I've ever watched in my entire life.

Now, this was the first episode of the show, and as such, it serves to show many of the flaws that will be present in the rest of the series. In many ways, it was pretty much an amalgamation of many of the clichés present in many eighties and early nineties cartoons...And the result was simply hilarious: Everything in this cartoon was so cheesy and over-the-top. And that's why it is so funny to watch.
