[@jblue88hoodgamer54]

Akuma is literally my favorite Street Fighter.

[@TheBiffff]

Hi recent sub really enjoy your content. Can you tell me who the artist is who does your intro music it's an awesome tune. Thanks

[@tomolarney440]

Know it is not butt s** artist

[@iezarigarrard3673]

Impossible. Ken is just as important

[@n0isyturtle]

He's just a fruit vendor who's hobby is martial arts.

[@kaiserwave5977]

Akuma is the only fighting game character to go into a completely different franchise and just start kicking everyone’s ass 😂

[@unknownnocoment9335]

even in death he wins

Projectiles in Tekken is almost like cheating lol

[@HotdogJuice]

Fun fact: Akuma was actually in Street Fighter 2 the animated movie. If you watch closely to what's actually going on while Dhalsim is fighting and senses a power after Ryu is already in the vicinity. It wasn't Ryu he was sensing. It was Akuma.

[@supersmashbro596]

@@Wrekkshoppe yeah back when street fighter didnt really know what to do with itself. in the story we didnt even know sagats ties to shadaloo other than hes the 2nd-to-last boss. and his endings gave the indication he's only with bison JUST to fight ryu. in most media he was just a straight villain. sf2 takes place AFTER alpha 3 (the canon midquel between 1 and 2) which gave context to wanting to rematch ryu, realizing that beating ryu alone wouldnt fix his pride, leaves shadaloo and is now in sf2 seeking a clean fight with ryu. all of that was in the alpha series, well after sf2.

[@TheBlackOtaku]

Ryu and Akuma deserve a final battle in SF like Kazyua and Heihachi in Tekken 7

[@jackmcintosh333]

But done right with no rushed and edited sloppy art scenes , it's like I give the creators props for creating great characters but at the same time they play them at their wrong natural position

[@jblue88hoodgamer54]

Well it did happen in Street Fighter Alpha 2.

[@dirtbag3448]

Akuma would win. Ryu my favorite character. But akuma has mastered his evil side.

[@unkgeta]

I agree with you man

[@TheGirugamesh1000]

​@@dirtbag3448 akuma has the satsui no hado but ryu has the power of oneness which is far greater. Also ryu has the satsui no hado as well.

[@mex321]

I'm new to Street Fighter and this channel helped me a lot with the lore and character bio's, thanks!

[@TheFighterVerse]

Glad to help!

[@damianstarks3338]

Akuma is a street fighter legend this video on him puts the biggest smile on my face.

[@steelmademance8167]

"I am power made flesh!" ~ akuma

[@MosesHanma]

I don't get why people insist on calling Akuma "evil". Bison is evil, a pure psychopath. Akuma is just a dark force of nature, but he has honor and principals. Nothing evil about that.

[@manny8042]

I wish they made a real live dark origin movie of Akuma.

[@KJjonjon]

Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist

[@tonuahmed4227]

Yes...that was really good prequel,deserved its sequel...

[@pokefriend123]

Akuma has got the right idea! We all should give in to the Dark Hado.

[@Youstoopidahh]

Akuma is the true definition of destruction. You think of any fighting character of absolute chaos, rage, and destruction… you think Akuma.

[@MichaelBK-BoD-modder]

Not really. "Akuma" means like "rebel", "free", "self-sufficient"... "Akuma" exists beyond the cycles of "life-death" and "good-evil", as an inmortal whom defeats the hell and conquer the heaven by his own will. Also, "Kami Shin Oni" means "mighty immortal deity". In the metaphor of the "Mitsu tomoe", "Kami Shin Oni" have the will to reach the crane "Suzaku", through the tiger "Byako" and defeating the dragon "Tetsu"; without being controlled by the time-space deity called as "Mutsugi"... "Akuma/Gouki" was a good man while he loves to Sayaka. His brother "Gouken" was jealous about them. The "Satsu no hadou" was originally a deadly martial art used in war; and the propose of the techniques was originally to defend own self to care the loved ones... also becoming stronger and finish the conflict, awakening the power of each one against the dangerous death. The euphemism "light against darkness" is a religious misrepresentation, to distort the original Japanese culture. The "evil" and "good" are the same cycle about "agony" and "death" ("KU"); but the Will and the Ethics, can free the sincere people and lead them to the Truth and to Immortality (like a King, represented by the kanji "Ten".) Greetings.

[@greycat111]

Akuma’s origin story in that real life youtube drama from years ago was really dope. They actually set it historically in a post ww2 era with real japanese actors playing akuma and gouken

[@samuelmbila5583]

10:45 Akuma taking over Rugal's body is so scary and cool!

[@TrillaGorilla_317]

Akuma’s been my favorite character since Alpha 2.

[@tristanchriesmon1056]

Akuma is my favorite shoto he is a beast I would love to see him and Ryu have a final battle sum day to see who is the strongest there is great video as well

[@AyyeBC]

In the Street Fight II V anime series , Akuma makes random appearances in the background , its funny because they'll be regular people in the background then you see a random guy with a red pony tail wearing a black karate suit, they made him a Easter egg

[@J-gritty]

Ken need his version of Akuma, maybe we can get a shin Urien fused with psycho power or something. All I know is that Ken needs to go on his own spiritual journey with the hadou powers he has, I would say that Dhalsim should be to him what Oro is to Ryu.

[@gaarakuh8680]

In SvC chaos aka Snk vs Capcom made by Snk (not Capcom vs Snk made by Capcom) ken have a devil version named Violent Ken ; spoiler alert he was unstoppable 💪

[@UltimateShadow10]

@@gaarakuh8680 And then Capcom put that weird ass character in the final version of Street Fighter II.

[@J-gritty]

@@gaarakuh8680 I wasn't talking about Ken getting dark hadou powers but rather a final boss and a person of guidance like dhalsim

[@supers0nic77]

When sf alpha came out me and my friends would talk about this. I said there needs to be a psycho ken, shadowloo experiment?

[@GammaAkutabi]

If Asura's Wrath timeline is cannon that means Akuma outlives Ryu.

[@kingchangi8432]

I always wondered why he was my boy’s favorite. Then I never got to ask. Thank you for this video.

[@unkgeta]

Fun fact Ryu and Akuma Appeared in Two Deathbattles one with two Mortal Kombatans

[@neogotham2k39]

Never mess with Akuma and he's a worthy opponent!

[@gawdlyb5117]

Can they just make a God of war type game with Akuma already lol

[@oopopp]

I use to remember going to the arcades as a little kid and the place was PACKED with guys teaching others how to get him on Super Street Fighter II Turbo and lineups to play the game.... lol

[@Davew5183]

Again, absolutely perfect, keep up the good work.

[@kaijufect8121]

This is what breaks Akuma being Ryu's dad. If Ryu was his son he would've been already at the dojo of gouken. Not left there on the steps of Gouken's temple. It would've been said Akuma's girl left him there. But it doesn't. Ryu is not the son of Akuma because of that part. But. It IS the most liked by fans for akuma to be Ryu's dad.

They should put Ryu in tekken to fight alongside with akuma

[@DARK_HADOO]

Street fighter and Baki need to have a cross over, and specifically akuma vs yujiro and akuma learning ki n stuff, even tho they would have to take base akuma because that’s the only akuma that’s weak enough to go toe to toe with yujiro who is basically just a human on steroids😭, but I feel like base yujiro would beat base akuma, due to him being able to copy everything akuma knows and master it perfectly(including the satsui no hado), and him knowing every martial art in human history and having stats that are roughly even

[@invictus5958]

It just always stuck with me of the chance that akuma is ryu father…
