So guys, you probably remember the horror that was Frankenstein's monster that Capcom made out of my dear precious. However, it was brought to my attention (thanks b00moscone ) that her face was changed up a bit. Here are the differences:

Old

New

Now, she still doesn't look as good as she could be, but it definitely is an improvement! However, I stil don't understand why couldn't have just gone with how she looked in Street Fighter V, even with all the flaws that game had, one thing that they did do really well was Chun-Li's model!

Why is that not obvious? 

The CAPCOM characters have been given a more realistic makeover to be more consistent with Marvel cast. Chun Li's original face was to highlight her Chinese heritage, something that Anime design's ignore (anime rarely highlights diffrences in ethnic groups). For the first time she LOOKED CHINESE! gaaasp. Its not intended, but the outcry to Chun-LI looking like a Chinese woman comes off as insensitive. 

Here original face didn't look Chinese. It just looked bad. It looked like a baby dolls face. Apparently they only changed her face. Her character model on the whole needed to be updated. Her models proportions were/are awful.
