Oh there is and it's AWFUL...
I won't go into details because it's awful but think of it this way: Art of Fighting the anime is to Art of Fighting the game, as the American Street Fighter cartoon is to Street Fighter the game.

I just rented it and must say it was the funny thing I've ever seen... it was as terrible as Fatal Fury was good!
No, I havent seen it, but I heard it sucked. I would like to see it just to experience the suck-factor of that anime.

It's been awhile since i watched it, but yeah it's pretty awful. the fact they couldn't get Ryo's hair colour right is one big sign the animators didn't know jack about what they we're doing...
Still enjoyed the AOF anime more than the first SS one though (Which took the one fighting game tthat sould of had an awesome anime, and made a rat ass horrid one).

Wahahaha!
I'm so glad I was able to rent that one. If anyone here can rent it, then do so! It's hilariously bad. I love the big Rainbow sign they have for their Karate school. Seriously though, no manner of KOF/AOF fan should actually have to pay more than 4 bucks for that terrible thing.
As if it really matters, spoilers below. --- Wasn't it great how the helicoptor's blades somehow caught fire? And it kept changing positions in the pool during the fight! ...And it exploded with such great timing!
Kick me I'm new.

1. The "Yuri Sakazaki" in it bore absolutely no resemblance to the Yuri Sakazaki I know...and after the first few minuts, I didn't even notice.
2. Ryuhaku Todo is one of the least important, most obscure characters not only in AOF but in SNK gamedom in general...and I was ABSOLUTELY OUTRAGED by how he was portrayed here.
3. I'm actually using the expression "45 minutes I'll never get back" in this post.
Unwatchable, unbearable, unthinkable. MAN, this was a stinker.

I think they tried really hard to make her look like a Masami Obari version of Yuri, as this apparently came out the same year as Fatal Fury:the motion Picture.

I would be more outraged by the fact King was made into a villian, Robert kept hitting on her and she didn't like Ryo... Todo was lucky to even get work before CvS2

HAHAHA! Could have been worse... Yuri could have gotten kidnapped at the 46 minute point again for no reason (it's like she just sat there and LET herself get rekidnapped five times!) and you'd be saying "120 minutes I'll never get back"
