This theme is so fitting for Akuma. A traditional Japanese flute for a master of an ancient art passed through generations playing over a fast, intense, and powerful beat that indicates the strength and ferocity of the demon lying just under the surface.

[@AR-mi9cv]

correct.

This is the BEST description that ANYONE could have given on what the entirety of this track is. Godlike wording.

[@zyco9188]

damyne77 That’s a bit over the top.

[@Sakaki98]

A little late, but that jazzy ambient synth deserves some love for complementing the aforementioned themes with a combination of mystery as a result of his seclusion, repetition for Akuma’s dogged practice of his art, and ambiguity in that he’ll never know just when he’s become the strongest or who could possibly make fighting worthwhile for him after he’s number one. The entirety of this theme is just godlike.

This song is perfect for Akuma... It is the wild call of battle that enslaves Akuma, forcing him to endlessly search for the perfect opponent. This theme is the perfect opposite all of the calm serenity that Ryu represents. Two warriors after the same goal, but taking different roads to get there. Epic 5/5

I like the fact that the Flute kicks in when Akuma stomps on his Stage.

[@TheOSTLobby]

PSA: This is jungle, not Breakcore!

[@fieldofsenses]

massive!

[@XYjujuPSN]

I think this theme fits Akuma so well because it perfectly encapsulates him. The flute being how he's an old school fight to the death fighter and just about everything else on the beat being how's he's evolved and just about better or ahead of everyone he fights. This instrumental almost makes you feel like you're constantly trying to catch Akuma moving increasingly faster around you in a fight.

Still the best original Akuma theme, 25 years and counting.
