I love this theme. Really gives you that 'oh shit, I better take this guy seriously or I'm fucked' feeling. Even if it's just a remix of Akuma's theme... Download link: www.mediafire.c...
I've thought about this for a while, but I think I know the reason for Akuma's hair length in SFV - He's retained that from Oni. Here's what I mean: Akuma believes he is the master of the Hado, right? Well, in the Oni form, it seems as if the Hado has mastered him. Not wanting that to happen, and wanting to regain control (ala Jasper and Lapis), he seals off Oni inside his darkened soul, which comes with side-effects. These include his hair length and maybe his hair colour in 3rd Strike, as that is the game after SFV in the timeline. I think this is interesting because it shows that Akuma demands control over the Hado, and even he doesn't want to be taken over by it now that he's seen what it can do to him.
Akuma: A true warrior can stare death in the face and lash out in rage against it! -You sure you wanna do that considering this guy is most likely gonna be your death?
Nah, that's Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan. If that's what you were trying to say, but didn't feel like typing the entire thing (Trust me, no one does), then my comment is now invalid.
As a Akuma player, I remember oni being actually a little bit more harder to master. But MAN...it was worth it! This character had broken the limits of my expectations time after time. It’s probably for the best that he’s not a returning character in SFV CE considering the fact that he is pretty much 50 Akumas in One.🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Well heres how this oni thingy happened. Akuma let the satsui no hado take control of himself, taking full control of full demon/devil but with uncontroable power that even himself is not controling his new form. also if you are wondering why evil ryu became evil ryu well the reason is because at the end of akumas ending he does some random red power shit and summons that over ryu so when you the intro of evil ryu , thats the beginning of when he took intact of the power akuma summonded.
Akuma didnt let the power take over his body. He mastered it on another level, like super saiyan 3 xD Its just that the stronger the satsui no hado gets, the more darkness consumes ones soul. Thats why oni seems so out of controll some times and changed so much from the akuma we knew. He's still able to turn back into akuma though to not use up too much energy for nothing. Oni is basically a transformation
So basically, if akuma is just like "Oh hell no , i wanna be superdevil! " then hes just gnna be something like super saiyan 10 or something xD. still , he does get beaten by dan and all other characters/.
My understanding was that both Evil Ryu and Oni are "theoretical characters", what would become of Ryu and Oni respectively if they succumbed to the Satsui No Hado, with neither actually existing technically in the SF4 continuity. Didn't Gouken seal Ryu so that he couldn't become Evil Ryu in his ending?
Andrew Johnson Evil Ryu and Oni are just hypothetical characters that result when both ryu or akuma would succumb to the dark hado. Yes, they still can tap into the satsui no hado to perform metsu Shoryu, Metsu Hadoken for ryu and Shin Goku Satsu for Akuma. But should they succumb to the dark hado for a period of time they would become that specific character - Evil Ryu or Oni.
Really? You believe so? Even if its not the best thing to happen in the world its far from the worst. Many moves and styles today are based on a style that is, not only to defend ones self, but to kill your opponet. Muay Thia is a great example of this. So dont feel sad sad for someone that uses a martial art for what it was originally intended to do, instead, feel sorry that someone has to die
I like how the creator tosses away Akuma's name as if he isn't insanely evil to the point where he is nigh unbeatable and a version of him was locked away for about 25 years. Oni then says ok Akuma you were great at Violence now I will improve on that Akuma stares at him not fully comprehending how this is even possible.
the shin ryu vs oni fight oni was holding back on shin ryu because he knew shin ryu is not that strong as evil ryu.even regalur akuma beat shin ryu\power of nothingness ryu/.Akuma holds back every time
oni is so powerful that he dose not move but the earth turns so quickly (he floats so he would not move with the world) that he gets there with out moving his legs
more like gouki's only human side plus meditation brought out the ultimate demon lurking inside every satsui no hadou user, evil ryu will eventualy aswell be consumed by another demon resting in his satsui no hadou
No. His body could no longer contain his power. He's now no longer "Akuma" nor Shin "Akuma" his body is under control of a spirit called Oni or "Purple Troll"
akuma is both stronger than shin ryu\power of nothingess ryu/and evil ryu.I will say it again if akuma is stronger than both evil ryu and shin ryu than oni is way way way way way way way way stronger.shin akuma as well and also cyber akuma
no akuma is oni after akuma looses waht litle humanity he has left the satsui no hado compleatly takes him over turrning him in to oni who is preatty much living hate
