Etsuko Shihomi

A fierce, female martial arts warrior enlists the aid of a master karate expert to rescue her kidnapped brother from a bloodthirsty drug lord.

Released only three months after the original film, the sequel 'Sister Street Fighter: Hanging By a Thread', once again follows Koryu Lee as she investigates another smuggling ring, this time involving diamonds implanted into the derrieres of prostitutes! Teaming up with enigmatic fighter Tsubaki (Yasuaki Kurata), she once again calls upon her fighting skills to take down another round of colourful bad guys.

The final film of the official trilogy, Return of the Sister Street Fighter, finds Koryu Lee back in Yokohama searching for a woman who has become the mistress of another crime kingpin. Kurata again co-stars but this time as a crazed fighter working for the villains who swears that he's the man who can kill Li Koryu.

Finally in 1976, Toei produced 'Sister Street Fighter: Fifth Level Fist', an unofficial follow-up to the series helmed by original Street Fighter director Shigehiro Ozawa. Shihomi stars as Kiku Nakagawa, the daughter of a Kyoto kimono shop owner who'd rather practice karate than study flower arranging. Luckily, Kiku stumbles upon a heroin ring being operated out of a local movie studio and must team up with two mixed-race martial artist friends to take down the villains.

Takuma Tsurugi, the tough-as-nails, badass mercenary, refuses to kidnap a beautiful heiress but instead goes to war with the mobsters after her.

A wealthy woman hires a former police captain and his army of fighting men to save her kidnapped daughter and a stolen jewel from a criminal.

No one can stop Tsurugi's fists of fury after mobsters double-crossed him and murder his girlfriend!
