Despite this loss, Sodom still respects Guy due to his skill as a genuine shinobi. Ever since Guy had defeated him in their battle from within the original Final Fight, Sodom had developed a deep hatred towards the modern-day Bushinryu ninja and vowed to one day defeat him in order to avenge his past loss, though Guy himself considers Sodom to be nothing more than a minor annoyance.

One of Sodom's victory quotes in the Japanese version is "DIE JOB DEATH CAR?", which is intended to be an approximation of the Japanese phrase " daijōbu desu ka?" ( 大丈夫ですか, " daijōbu desu ka?" ?), which means "Are you alright?".
Many of Sodom's victory quotes are written in seemingly nonsensical English sentences, which are actually various English words put together to resemble Japanese sentences, again giving off the impression that Sodom's pronunciation and grasp on the language are questionable. Sodom intersperses various English words throughout his sentences, thus coming across as unskilled in speaking the Japanese language. In the Japanese version of the Street Fighter Alpha games, much of Sodom's dialogue is rendered entirely in katakana, a Japanese script used largely for transcribing words from English or other foreign languages into Japanese (and vice-versa for Japanese that isn't meant to be translated into other languages, like "Pachinko"), which gives his dialogue a more stilted, awkward feeling to read.

He is never seen fighting without a pair of jitte or katana blades, making him one of the few characters to appear in the Street Fighter series to use weaponry. However, he has not written the kanji properly, and thus its meaning is lost. On the front of his outfit, Sodom has attempted to scrawl the Japanese kanji shi (死), meaning "death". In combat, Sodom wears tabi and zori, samurai gauntlets, blue jeans, body armor, and a samurai kabuto with a mask, which obscures his facial features entirely however, it is known that he has blue eyes.
