General:
E. Honda was challenged
by Sodom to join Mad Gear. Honda
won that fight and declined. Then he left to find worthy opponents and
show the world that sumo is a powerful martial art. He fought Ryu
once, and probably told Sakura
where she could find her idol. He didn't do much during either SFA3 or
SF2, but he at least succeeded in his mission. His four students after
SF2 are Hatonoyama, Marunoumi, Yasuhanada, and Nishinofuji.

Comment:
Well, he is
the first official sumo wrestler in a fighting game... And he could do
that flying headbutt attack thing... Weird and unrealistic of course, but
memorable and timeless indeed. As for his appearance, his face paint was
always cool, besides that he's a pretty standard sumo... All in all he
always did his job well as the sumo of he series.
