Manon Legrand

Manon Legrand, also known as the "Judoka Ballet Dancer," is a character from the Street Fighter series, debuting as one of the new characters in Street Fighter 6. She is a French judoka fighter, as well as a ballet dancer and model. Born into a wealthy French aristocratic family as the youngest of three siblings, Manon displayed incredible judo talent from a young age, being hailed as a "genius." Despite her immense success, Manon is internally conflicted due to her mother's departure and dislikes being called "strong," as it reminds her of her mother's words, "You'll be just fine because you're strong." Driven to prove she is more than just “fine,” Manon constantly seeks self-improvement. Her fighting style uniquely combines judo and ballet with her signature throw, "Manège Doré." Manon collects medals in combat, which amplify her throws and super attacks. She is an idealist who strives to become the world's strongest model through street fighting.
