Character Personality

Born and raised in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), Zangief is an incredibly patriotic character who has been motivated in some way to fight for his Russian motherland in every single game he has ever been in. While his personality has varied from one media source to another, Zangief is mostly been portrayed as a very fearless and tactical fighter who is prone to quick temperaments and is always very competitive. In addition to being overwhelmingly patriotic, he is immensely proud of his massive physique and is obsessed with muscle building. In battles, he constantly belittles his opponent's smaller muscular build, blaming their losses on their lack of muscular power. His win quotes often consists of critiques towards his specific opponents about their lack of power or telling his opponents to build more muscle. Despite his short temper and boisterous attitude, Zangief has shown himself to be rather gentle-natured with a good sense of humor, once entering a tournament partly to win the admiration of a group of school children. According to the instruction manual of Street Fighter II: Special Championship Edition for the Sega Genesis/Mega-Drive, Zangief is described as being "good natured, with a great sense of humor and totally fearless". While not fighting, Zangief enjoys hopak (Cossack dancing) and eating borscht. Some of the things which he does not like includes young women (because he views them as a distraction, though his interaction with Marisa has caught him off-guard as he never has "carefully consider[ed]" a romantic relationship before), bears that do not know how to wrestle properly and (according to the manual for Super Street Fighter II Turbo for the 3DO) projectiles such as Hadokens, Yoga Fires and Tiger Shots. He is also shown to be interested in fine arts and literature, as he would often visit a library to read various classical works as well as listening to classical music in his free time. When wearing a mask, he goes under his heel persona of "The Gief", maintaining much of his pride but also demonstrating a much more aggressive and taunting tone. He often insists that certain fighters lean into the heel gimmick more, and makes references to his colleagues from Saturday Night Slam Masters. Zangief is an enormous man, towering above most opponents with a hulking, heavily muscled build. His body is covered in scars and stretch marks that testify to countless battles and grueling training. He has a thick, short mohawk and a prominent beard, with piercing blue eyes that radiate intensity. He wears red wrestling trunks, red wristbands, and heavy boots, while his chest is covered in a thick patch of chest hair. His sheer size and strength make his presence intimidating, while his movements exude raw power and the precision of a seasoned grappler.
