It's a retcon, sadly. In Alpha 3 Akuma specifically states that it's "not my fists but your past sins" as he teleports his opponent to Hell where they attacked by demons. The more sins committed, the deadlier the attack. Hence the name Instant Hell Murder. Seeing Akuma just punch his victim repeatedly takes the mystique out of it. 😢

The fact that Akuma has become so powerful that he's desperate for a good fight is probably the best way they could've taken his character. I also love the subtle mannerisms he has now, like actually smiling at the possibility that he has a real fight on his hands to the fact that he almost looks sad after killing his opponent, like he either saw too much in them or it was over too quickly. Either way, it feels like the natural next step for a character who is all about getting stronger, no matter the cost, as what do you have left to accomplish once you've reached the top?

[@brandonkite4414]

It's like they took Isaac Netero's philosophy from HxH and gave it to Akuma

[@NesdatNatsirt]

He is The True Master of The Fist or dramatically the Demon of Killing Intent (Akuma Satsui No Hado). Plus if you listen to the english version of his Raging Demon it almost sounds like "To Shake the Heavens, and Reach the Summit, Become The Demon" while I'm sure in Japanese it's worded different but the meaning is the same. Akuma wants a fight to prove worthy of his skill and teaching and outside of Ryu or Ken (if Ken gave into the Satsui No Hado) he has no worth while challenge. Especially since neither of his brother's pupils ended up going down his path but come close to this power.

1:34 I've never seen Akuma excited about anything and it's a terrifying sight , speaking of the normal level 3 and raging demon are just beautiful he's a monster, and his voice sound so close to the street fighter 4 one! Edit: Yo it's Christopher Guerrero!

[@dark_nightwing_xl2797]

He is fast as well and heavy

[@NinjapowerMS]

Is Akuma going to message you lol

[@kirbyx2573]

​Akuma isn't gonna message you with a phone. This man is gonna throw a rock across the world with a letter written in blood tied to it!

[@cmthekilla]

​@@kirbyx2573CAPCOM, HIRE THIS MAN ASAPAAAA!!!!!

[@inkchariot6147]

​@@kirbyx2573Akuma will throw a severed head with a note attached to it.

[@theonlyJ]

Interesting that after raging demon it says "KO" now. Before, there was always silence after the raging demon which always implied Akuma had killed his opponent. It seems that maybe now, Akuma cares more about a challenge and doesn't necessarily care to kill his opponent.

[@itsjustvin7630]

I mean look how many times he left Ryu off the hook

[@realchezboi]

I think it only did that in SF4

[@Zackfair619]

Literally the G.O.A.T. is back. Street Fighter is incomplete without him. Now I've a reason to buy the game.

[@ShinRyojin]

The visuals for the Raging Demon attack makes the technique look like a nightmare come to life.

[@unskilledgamer3642]

Akuma using teleportation even more than in previous games: "Am I here, or here, or heeere?"

[@BalbuenaNYC]

lmaooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I always wondered what was happening during raging demon, glad i got it finally answered.

[@FlannelManiac]

last time I saw Akuma smiling was when he was bowling in Tekken so he must be having a blast here

[@videogamefan101]

Dude, they not only beefed up Akuma, but we get to see what he does when he uses Raging Demon! Honestly looks more terrifying than the past fade-to-black with the flash of his strikes.

[@mrsozekaiser9299]

this is pure art, just perfect

[@jack0f4lltrades28]

Akuma looking like the giant hammer guy from Resident Evil Village. I can't unsee that 🤣

[@Soul-the-Mysterious]

I love they kept the classic teleport sounds

[@1269RedJester]

And here I thought the "Raging Demon" couldn't get any better or more visceral. Thank you Capcom for proving me wrong.

[@TheObserver83]

I think it looks horrible, personally. They should have named it something else.

Street Fighter... I love you. Y'all brought back my Goat. MY GOAT!!!

[@iitsMeStorm]

Love how Akuma has become much older now and kinda like an old wise master. Just straight to the point brutality, Akuma feels like kratos in a way if he didn’t have a son and was still the ghost of Sparta but much older and matured

[@nicknguyen1632]

1:35 a rare footage of Akuma actually smiling

[@tonyhernandez5158]

Amazing, simply AMAZING!!! I cant wait to main him again!!!

[@marks2053]

Basically, the raging demon is you being devoured by your own demons. Thousands and thousands, might be more depending on what kind of person you are. And of course, there is no worse demon to do it than Akuma.

[@Nykandros]

Rather, it seems the other way around. The one who USES the Raging Demon is giving into his demons for some sort of ultimate attack. You hear Akuma saying "Ascend the heavens, become the demon" etc. which is likely in reference to himself. It's basically the user overpowering someone with their killing intent it seems

[@Blit-X-TVLive]

@@Nykandros Lores says the more evil a person is, the more potent the attack.

[@Nykandros]

​@@Blit-X-TVLive So why would Akuma state to give into the demon & ascend the heavens, if the persons demons lead to their defeat? Where does it state that the Raging Demon is more potent against evil people?

[@JagoShogun]

I love the stage. There's a lot of tones in buddhist and zen buddhism where Asura have either broken faces or heads. That statue in the background who I assume Akuma destroyed, just looks so sick. He's an asura himself, a god of war and strife, jealousy, and killer-intent.

[@scourge8143]

It’s his Alpha 2 stage

[@JagoShogun]

I know? lol@@scourge8143

[@jin_san8424]

He have destroyed this statue ; look the Akuma *teaser* , this is a prequel of this vidéo.

[@joeyawiki3315]

There are multiple Asuras in buddhism(at least in theravada school) with different names and power since they used to be an old Gods that got pushed out of heaven by the current Gods.

[@JagoShogun]

Yes, for drinking sakra, the sacred drink. Imbibement is correlated to the 'sura. Iddhipada, is a buddhist miracle, to multiply, fly in the air, or swim through land. In this case, multiplication @@joeyawiki3315

[@nickelisblind]

Out of everyone in street fighter, Akuma always caught my attention. He's my favorite character, I remember seeing him with a Japanese letter/word on his back and it stucked in my mind till now. (Never played the game tho)

[@quekZo95]

its time

Capcom almost had me thinking they weren't going to show raging demon. Damn the animation for it looks amazing.

Bro activated Tsukuyomi for that shit 🤣

[@Zwyrx_Hgqfyggz]

I see he's learned quite alot from his time fighting Kazuya and Heihachi. Really putting that Shakunetsu into his fists. Can't wait to see the DLC cast's outfit 3 -we better not get wagie akuma-

That Reina has a similar rage art only helps to imagine that he trained her before Tekken 8 xD

[@mikepryor7467]

akuma is one of the coolest characters in all of fighting games

[@TheSkarletKardinalSwoopsIn]

From watching this trailer, I think it’s safe to conclude that Akuma is just as awesome as we all expected him to be. My favorite part: seeing what Akuma actually does to his opponent during the Raging Demon. I love the idea that it’s him creating a bunch of shadow clones of himself that all strike his opponent in rapid succession. It’s way cooler than what SFV showed.

[@lohanmicahtv6684]

yeah i liked when sfv showed it a lot and how they showed it but this is definitely cooler. if they mixed the two to me that would be perfect

[@adrianwoods2752]

I think the best mix of that would be showing the shadow clones and the first few seconds, then as the clones close the distance, that’s when the screen turns black and you see the hit sparks

[@lohanmicahtv6684]
