Akuma
built 262 days ago
Shin Akuma is a version of Akuma the players confront as a CPU opponent in Super Street Fighter II Turbo. To face Shin Akuma, the player must reach Bison without losing any rounds or using any continues (including having the second player join in) and achieving at least three perfect victories. He will then interrupt the final match by performing a Shun Goku Satsu on M. Bison, before challenging the player's character. As in his later incarnations, he has a purple gi instead of Akuma's standard black gi, is faster, does two Zankū Hadoken at once, and inflicts more damage. But, just like regular Akuma, his name is not displayed below the life bar and he does not have a super meter. Shin Akuma is... an unlockable playable character in the Game Boy Advance version of the game, Super Street Fighter II Turbo Revival.

Isawa Akuma was a shugenja from the Phoenix Clan who lived in the third century. Obsessed with the power of names, Akuma found himself drawn to the study of the oni of the Shadowlands. He went as far in his studies as to capture and oni, which proved to be his undoing. The oni stole Akuma's name, forcing him to wander the Shadowlands insane, until he was killed by the Kuni.

Akuma has the same moves as Ryu and Ken, only much faster and more damaging. Akuma can perform the Hadôken (Gou Hadouken--Strong Surge Fist), including one performed mid-air (Zankuu Hadouken--Air-Cutting Surge Fist). His Tatsumaki Zankuukyaku (Air Slashing Kick) knocks the opponent down instantly and can ... juggle, his Shoryuken ( Gou Shoryuken, -- Strong Rising Dragon Fist) knocks down his opponent at the first hit and does 3 hits up close, and he can also juggle with a single Shoryuken in certain instances. Akuma also has the ability to warp to different places in the screen (the Ashura Senkuu technique), and is immune from being stunned in his first few appearances. To compensate for these advantages, Akuma is usually saddled with extremely low stamina, and in Street Fighter III 3rd Strike, he has the shortest stun meter of all the combatants. He is also the only character in Street Fighter III 3rd Strike with no EX moves.

To compensate for these advantages, he is usually saddled with extremely low stamina, and in Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike, he has an extremely short stun meter and no EX moves. These "flaws" reflect Akuma's ability to hold back his power so as to give opponents a fighting chance.

The overall objective of Akuma is to kill Satan and rid the world of demons. To do this the player must locate the Blood Sword, the only weapon that can defeat Satan. The game begins in the upper world, or real world. In single-player mode, the user controls three warriors collectively known as The Blood Trinity. The three heroes are Kusa, a Japanese magician and swordsman; Raening, a Chinese princess trained in martial arts and archery; and Elim, a Korean nobleman and master swordsman. Each warrior can be controlled independently or as part of the group.

Akuma finally tracked down Kairi. A man with a sword was rushing towards him. Not wanting to be interupted, he warped to the location in front of the swordsman and instantly knocked him out with one blow. When Akuma initiated a battle with Kairi, Kairi was beaten within an inch of his life, and lost the use of one eye when Akuma grazed his face with a Shoryuken. Just as Akuma was about to finish Kairi off, Kairi retaliated with a burst of power that was beyond his control, which actually succeeding in stunning Akuma, before Kairi disappeared from the fight.
