Five Vspo! talents will serve in the role: Ren Kisaragi, Kupi Kaminari, Ema Aizawa, Hanabi Choya, and Moka Amayui. The announcement was made on August 7, 2026. In the previous season, Street Fighter League: Pro-JP 2025, three members held the position: Kisaragi, Choya, and Amayui. For the 2026 season, Kaminari and Aizawa, both active players in Street Fighter 6, have joined the ambassador team, expanding it to five members.

Street Fighter League JAPAN 2026 marks the ninth season of the official Capcom team league, with all 12 teams competing for the championship. The tournament will be broadcast live on the official CAPCOM Fighters JP YouTube and Twitch channels. Ahead of the main rounds, a pre-opening division match featuring 48 players from 12 teams is scheduled for August 10 and 11, 2026.
The appointment extends Vspo!'s partnership with Capcom's official league into a second year, following the previous season's ambassador work. The two new ambassadors, Kupi Kaminari and Ema Aizawa, have been actively competing in Street Fighter 6, which gives them direct experience with the game the league is built around. The returning trio of Ren Kisaragi, Hanabi Choya, and Moka Amayui already have a track record of mirror streams and player interviews from the 2025 season.
Street Fighter League JAPAN 2026 is the ninth season of the team league, featuring all 12 teams. The pre-opening division match, scheduled for August 10 and 11, will pit 24 players from Division S against 24 from Division F, a total of 48 players.
