"Shura 修羅 or Ashura 阿修羅 is a Japanese way to call the Buddhism demigod of war Asura. In Japanese, we sometimes use it to describe a person who fell into a situation in which they have to fight an endless war against something, in a relentless and inhumane manner." 9/10 bretty gud, Wolf aproves
They can also do a reference like they did in SFV with Kage's Asura skin, maybe with the young version of himself, Akuma may have a skin who look like Augus
I love that they made the center crack of his abs not a straight line since some people do have it more skewed...it just makes him and his power feel much more real.
0:20 First Round 1:21 Second Round 2:38 Low health 3:06Mid-round secton 3:32 THIRD STR... ROUND!!! MESSATSU!!!! Upd: Want to mention: it's intresting how at 3:48 Rhythm changes to a waltz 3-count rhythm. Seems like nothing special, but hey, it's THIRD STR... (a-hem) ROUND! AGAINST AKUMA - it has to be special and epic! UPD2: "He is just standing there! MENACINGLY!!" theme.😆
@@jitteryzeitgeist Hate to be that guy, but it is not atonal. Atonal means having no tonal center (not belonging to a key/absence of the tonic). However, the notes clearly outline the chords B dim b7 and Bb dim b7, creating a 2 chord half-step progression. I think what you are trying to describe is the general use of dissonance (which I agree is very cool).
I believe you're missing the outro at 4:08. Also, I feel like mid-round sections don't usually last longer than ~15 seconds, so maybe the third round starts earlier than your timestamp. It's tough to say for Akuma's theme, though. Other than that -- nice work! Soon the Raging Demon shall be freed >:)
@@andante5571 Nah, you don't have to hate to be that guy, you're 100% correct. I'll take it as a music lesson for the day lol. And yeah, I got dissonance and atonality mixed up.
I love how in some parts of the song you can hear some kind of "distorted chanting", like it's some kind of lost soul. Could be the voices from enemies Akuma has already killed, or could even be the last traces of humanity inside this man-turned-demon, just slowly fading away
It sounds like buddhist chants which makes me think of how Akuma uses meditation to have control over his actions, maybe it's to show that altough he still has control he use the Satsui no Hado more than ever before and/or he has reached a new height of power.
I think I like them as meditation. They're not the screaming damned or some remnant of himself. This *is* Akuma. His entire narrative is shaped by him not simply being a Demon. He pushed past humanity and Demonhood and is attaining Heaven with each passing day. He's the strongest character in the series because to gain the power he seeks, he has to choose not to lose himself. Becoming Oni is more immediately powerful, sure, but he knows he can be better, and thus chooses not to surrender himself to the Satsui no Hado.
@@reeses7839 At the same time, Akuma is actually losing himself. Rose's win quote against Oni in 4 prophesizes that he'll come eventually and seeing the small details Akuma has gotten through 5 and especially 6 (Like Akuma's face becoming black whenever he does demon moves like how Oni does) Akuma is getting stronger and chooses to waver his humanity. Whether he wants to or not, Akuma is becoming Oni
This is almost a natural evolution of his third strike theme. Where in third strike he was given drum and bass with a flute, now he’s given a drill beat with a flute. While I personally prefer the former, it’s cool how his sound has evolved to match the times without losing the aesthetic.
Yeah, this is basically his main original theme and "Killing Moon" if the resulting combination was made intentionally more eerie. I guess I overall like it, but I'm bit disappointed that they didn't have some nod to "Worth of My Fists" given the overall hip-hop aesthetic _SF6_ has. (Although now that I think about it, I wonder if Capcom has full rights to the various _CvS(2)_ songs.)
I love how Ryu & Akuma's themes in SF6 are polar opposites. While Ryu's is upbeat & is vibing, Akuma is just transcending above gods, the flute is even giving me huge 3rd Strike vibes
This song genuinely gets more unsettling the longer you listen to it, like if Akuma is losing himself in the battle, at the beginning still slightly a man, but the longer the fight goes, it sounds like Akuma is thirsting for blood, like slowly letting himself go.
This is a masterpiece. The strength and speed of Akuma are found in the punchlines of the drums and bass. The flute embodies his violence and fighting spirit, the pure villainy found within him. The vocal chants are a perfect representation of the godly presence that this character expresses, touched with a distortion that show his true warped, demonic self.
The way they incorporate screams into the song and make them sound like natural parts of the song is crazy, this might be my favorite Akuma theme behind the Tekken 7 Abandoned Temple stage tracks
viator: life is good, i can afford to relax and have fun with my friends while still striving to travel and improve my craft! shura: I WILL PUNCH A RIFT THROUGH REALITY ITSELF
akuma looks like yuujiro hanma + lion + burly ONI. Damn they nailed this man he will be complicated for me to play but i will learn him cuz of his sheer badassery
The middle section at 2:38 sounds so grimy and evil, like it's straight out of Mortal Kombat 3. Really capturing Akuma's ascent ( or descent ) of a man turning into something inhuman
Ryu's theme song has a feel-good vibe, indicating that he's moved on from the Satsui no Hado, and that he's at his best point in life. *Meanwhile Akuma/Gouki's theme just radiates pure black air force energy. He is not one to be messed with.*

However, the outcome of the final match against Devil Kazuya is actually unknown, although Tekken 8 confirms that Kazuya survived the fight and, therefore, probably won and killed Akuma (only in the "Tekken universe", of course).

@apextwin1993 The France stage theme is the only other one that's memorable/ halfway decent. This one is ok, but it's mogged really hard by Killing Moon.
Really dig that they went with Heian Period (1500s) Japan's music style for him. Using the Biwa instrument with his cave and the Nioh in the background is epic. Love that the cavern references Alpha 2 and Alpha 3 in a way.
Fun fact: the kanji on Akuma's back doesn't actually stand for "heaven". Instead of the more well-known 天 ("ten"), Akuma presents a 夭 ("yo") kanji on his back after performing the Raging Demon. Both are very similar, except for the topmost line on 夭 being slightly slanted to the left. 夭 roughly translates to "early death" or "calamity", which fits the nature of the Raging Demon and Akuma's character like a glove if you ask me. Of course, SF devs most likely took the misinterpretation and ran with it, making conquering/ascending to heavens part of Akuma's motivation.
@@metsu-satsu4280 Because the hand-written form of the kanji suggests it's 'Heaven'. 'Yo' is written in another way. In 'Heaven' - first stroke is going right, then the hand goes down obliquely to the left and then again right to the 2nd stroke. 'Yo' starts from the right and goes down obliquely to the left. It just doesn't fit.
Absolute weakest part of the song. Someone decided to make it sound like horror music for that small bit and its bad. And its right before the best part too.
@@Haka-f3k-u Not my fave part either but it's to indicate low/critical health. Every other theme has a part like that. Round 3 part is banging though for sure.
I keep thinking that there's fur growing on his stomach area, but that could just be his muscles getting so tense that they could snap just by someone breathing on them.
The man consumes all of the smoke and generates pain in the form of fists to the face. It is expected for you to crap your pants when meeting Akuma/Gouki.

In 'Heaven' - first stroke is going right, then the hand goes down obliquely to the left and then again right to the 2nd stroke. 'Yo' starts from the right and goes down obliquely to the left. It just doesn't fit.
I thought it meant "death", but "calamity" is very cool too.
@@kisu756haha,no
3:30 Final Round music is sooo good
Same
Man It grows on you
"SACRIFICE YOURSELF...TO THE SATSUI NO HADO!"
一瞬千撃 (ISSHUN SENGEKI!)
天
MESSATSU
we're killing M bison pre battle with this one
"DANCE A THOUSAND STEPS."
Drums and bass hitting. Wind instrument hitting. It’s the demon 😈
When the Satsui no Hado starts Satsui no Hado'ing:
He's just standing there, menacingly....! (With headphones)
Getting Akuma in the same month during the Kendrick Lamar vs. Drake beef. What a time to be alive!!!!
brah that pic is sick wallpaper worthy
Here's a wallpaper idea: screenshot of his back after shun goku satsu
WE'RE CASUALLY MESSATSUING CHILDRENS WITH THIS ONE 🔥
When you sneeze, you say bless you to akuma...
Hes back. The demon of the Ansatsuken.
One Punch Man looking at this Akuma like "how has this guy not broken his limiter!?"
2:40 The music you hear after another Akuma hits you with one combo
Absolute weakest part of the song. Someone decided to make it sound like horror music for that small bit and its bad.
And its right before the best part too.
@@Haka-f3k-u Not my fave part either but it's to indicate low/critical health. Every other theme has a part like that. Round 3 part is banging though for sure.
@@Haka-f3k-u It's the Low HP version. Every character and stage theme has an intro, transition, low HP, and 1st, 2nd, and 3+ round mixes
We’re killing a thousand times with this one 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥‼️‼️‼️💯💯💯
WE TURNING INTO ONIS WITH THIS ONE 🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯
BOUTTA USURP THE HEAVENS 🔥
EMBRACE THE SORROW 🔥
BECOME THE DEMONS 🔥🔥🔥
P1: Ready yourself!
P2: Messatsu!
A perfect workout music to hear at the gym that it might make me consumed to the Satsui No Hado
I hope that Capcom puts us in a mission in world tour that has us looking for Akuma tending to a fruit stand.
We doing the “shun goku satsu “with this one 🗣️
I wonder what Enma’s hollow theme gonna be like.
I keep thinking that there's fur growing on his stomach area, but that could just be his muscles getting so tense that they could snap just by someone breathing on them.
Akuma has a Theme that Symbolizes how Powerful, Dark, Demonic, and Animalistic he has become that facing his is a 100 Deaths.
Dude gets buffer with every game, i already thought he was bigger than normal in sf5, now he's a fucking behemoth
Akuma's theme dropped? Let's go!
if i heard the intro to this banger suddenly out of nowhere, i done be shitting my britches.
The man consumes all of the smoke and generates pain in the form of fists to the face. It is expected for you to crap your pants when meeting Akuma/Gouki.
FINALLY!!! Been waiting!! Haven't clicked on a video so fast 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
To this day he still keeps his dead masters prayer beads as his own
