I like the idea of the Satsui no Hado capable of developing a personality and serving as a "devil on your shoulder" to their respective hosts but disappointed that our first instance of that (Kage) is the equivalent of an extremely childish internet troll whom no one takes seriously, just like with Necalli
So let me see if I understand. Ryu is Kage Wait Kage is just part of him Akuma is Oni I like how this story shows that Akuma is more than a stupid boss
Akuma has always been more than a stupid boss ......I just think fans just got sucked into the normal story of street fighter .... I didn't even know gill and urien killed bison .....found that interesting
@@deez2583 sorry boy, but Ryu and Akuma aren't the same person. Akuma is Gouken's young brother, that followed the satsui no hadou's path. On Street Fighter anime movie, that's some clues of that's Akuma maybe it's Ryu's father, where he left his master's dojo, and a pregnant girl was left behind. I don't think it's canonical, but the maximum relationship between Ryu and Akuma is son and father, but never being the same person.
If Sagat doesn't want to fight you nor acknowledge you, if Gouki doesn't acknowledge nor fear you nor want to waste his sweat or fists on you, if even RYU himself doesn't fear, nor want to waste his sweat or blood on you nor even put in effort.... Then you are truly not a real fighter but an empty nothing who thinks power and intimidation are absolute..... When in reality its the heart and honor of fighting that is what truly matters.
Kage is not gone. He faded but he is still there inside Ryu. He is a part of Ryu and he is the dark hado. He will be back in a more powerful form and have more powers than Evil Ryu in SF 4. Kage is not gone.
@@sadmankhan9630 Well, true. Even though he freed himself from Ryu's heart, he is still a part of him. He's still gonna feed on the darkness in Ryu's heart.
Ryu has darkness, everyone has darkness the issue is how much it influences you. Ryu has moved beyond its influence (finally) and embraced the power of nothingness, so while Kage is still within Ryu, he won't have any hold over Ryu anymore. Unless of course, something really traumatic happens to Ryu that he can't pull himself away from.
@@unsasakiconsombrero6948 I think Akuma has dabbled enough with the Hado to steal parts of it and perfect them. Check his raging demon. It seems to be pressure point whereas Kage's wants to destroy
In the advent of Ryu overcoming the temptations of the Satsui no Hado dwelling within him, it was assumed that the persona of Evil Ryu had been vanquished. Yet astonishingly, the Satsui no Hado would develop sentience and came to manifest as its own entirely separate, physical entity, naming itself "Kagenaru Mono
He was the strongest form akuma has that isn't oni is shin akuma the form that akuma takes when he comes one with the satsui no hado without losing all his humanity completely which I believe he didn't take this form to fight kage is because he wants to fight ryu when he fully accepts the satsui no hado not the shadow of what could have been
@@purple16237 " Oni"means "Demon" or "Ogre" I'm pretty sure 😂 having his transcended name mean "Old" doesn't make any sense, it's not very intimidating and doesn't really fit akumas evil theme.
Is it weird that I feel sad for Kage? He makes me think of a kid saying, "Look at me". They know he's there but choose to ignore him or more like what he stands for.
Wait until you see the HK version of shadow Kyo, who think, act and actually hard-trained to fight like real Kyo Kusanagi, only to be disrespected by allies and foe.
@@EarthSaiiyan Well, to clarify, the way Ryu meditates to neutralize the Satsui no Hado is like Jack meditates to neutralize his anger. That did seal Mad Jack away. Both curses? They represent evil.
7:51 i've seen Goku use that stance. I still cant help but wonder what form of martial arts is that? Is it just a stance when preparing to fight or spar? Or is it a type of martial art? I used to take Taekwondo so I know that has a stance of it's own. So what martial art or form is that stance???
It's a Karate stance punch before the straight (powerful) is thrown. With Ryu and Ken canonically learning a style that's saidbto be part of karate it makes sense as well as Karate being of Japanese origin, they're going to look similar.
Kage need ta have the Hurricane Kick as well. Also, the way he instigate Ryu ta embrace The Satsui No Hadou is quite annoyin' for Ryu. Still, Ryu told him than he doesn't deny his existance, but also he doesn't want ta become like him: A blind, bloodthirsty warrior.
Am I the only who kinda feels bad for Kage? Because he couldn't decide on what he was gonna do with his life since Ryu didn't care about being possessed by the Satsui no Hado anymore, so he just sorta...faded out of existence.
Wiki claims he and evil ryu aren't the same, but seeing his story costume and the one from street fighter 4 proves that wiki was lieing. Only difference is kage's horns and cockiness.
They are the same. The only difference is Evil Ryu Makes Ryu Evil. Kage is Ryu having the evil ryu side having an out of body experience. That's why he's a spirit.
@@darcybarchue3987 they are not the same. The point of the Kage character is to represent the dark hadou that Ryu has rejected. That is why the story mode opponents (Sagat and Akuma) do not acknowledge him as Ryu, and both Kage and Ryu co-exist canonically. Kage, a.k.a the dark hadou, wants to be reincorporated back to Ryu as the source of Ryu's great power. Ryu has found strength in the power of nothingness, and does not want, nor need the murderous intent to be strong. He only resembles Ryu because he is Ryu's version of the satsui no hadou. It's the same murderous intent that Akuma possesses, and Kage mentions that after they fight.
@@max-d8105 they are exactly the same. That's why they have the same moves, same costume. Again evil Ryu is when the dark Hado changes Ryu into evil Ryu. Kage instead of Ryu becoming evil Ryu, evil ryu leaves his body. It's the same thing. Just an outta body experience. That's why in the ending he says I'm the best part of YOU!
If Capcom did use this story with Darkstalkers fans would finally get to see if Donovan turned evil or not although many say he embrace his evil side (Dee) but others like myself still believe he's fighting it and might've found a way to cleanse himself without Anita's help..but I could be wrong 🤷
Kage and Evil Ryu are two different characters Evil Ryu is a "What If" while Kage is a canon character to the lore but you can say Kage is Evil Ryu come to life in story.
Akuma was never evil even by a bit, he's a true warrior, not a villain, he has complete control over his dark powers because he embraced them long ago and they obey his will, he never has hurt innocent soul, he's just a lone warrior that searches for a worthy opponent
@@mohamedbinishaq3169 these events in this story are not real it's all happening in Ryu's head the satsui no hado wants to beat those people that Ryu himself wasn't able to defeat in order for him to prove a point that he is the strongest and that he should be the one in control that Ryu is much more weaker than him
cry, evil ryu fans, cry! for your edgy shotoclone is gone. Now Ryu's lore can finally move on to something new and hopefully not overused. sf6 baby. wooo.
Actually you may not like it, but for a shallow reason. Akuma has spent the majority of the time seeking to fight and often was cold and heartless through his journeys, the opposite of Ryu who swore to never walk the path Akuma did. Most of us can tell Akuma is at a point in his life where he is at balance with his path in spite of it being radically sided to darkness. In the martial arts, this is often a point one reaches with years of training, application, and introspection.
@@subwoofer6726 if you think martial arts will get you somewhere near this kind of things you are either 1: a child or a very childish person or 2: never really practiced martial arts. LOL
@@abaddonj Bruh you not liking it is pretty shallow. And Subwoofer isn't wrong. martial arts won't give you crazy powers, but the feeling of balance is there. So essentially, Akuma is at a point of balance.
@@abaddonj it makea sense though. The purpise of martial arts is to never use them because you are aware of how much damage it cause cause to others due to you training in it as well as it being done on you. Miyamoto Mushashi is a perfect example as he has been said to never lost a fight and even after all his fighting he has seen that it should be avoided at all times. So yes you can learn this in martial arts as well as life. Just as an ex con learns his crimes were wrong after years in prison or terrible acts. A martial artist who chooses to fight will learn the fighting was pointless and led to bloodshed that could be avoided.
If we're speaking more bizzare, consider Evil Ryu as Kage's son, because Kage is the embodiment of Satsui no Hado within Ryu, and Evil Ryu is, as the person above said, an Alter Ego of Ryu, possesed by Satsui No Hado. But both of them don't exist due to Ryu mastering the power of nothingness.
A terrible character idea just to be a lesson for Ryu? Should've just been a character fight, or a V-Trigger form. I'd understand if they're trying to make Evil Ryu a fuller and unique alter ego instead instead of a recolor, but his design is too much and he's a little too underdeveloped to be taken seriously, since literally no one does.
Deimos I wouldn't say laziness but it's more like Capcom are trying to hard to make the characters unique and they just end up over detailed. Their was nothing wrong with Akuma or evil Ryu they just changed their designs for no reason. Instead they could be fixing the story or change the movesets to make the characters more fun to play but no that would make the game actualy good.
I think Kage was made due to the backlash of Necalli not being what everybody thought a joke though Necalli is one of the top strongest but Kage a better threat.
Did they really need the devil horns? That's just dumb. The what if Evil Ryu from SF4 was actually menacing. This guy is a step up from Necalli but that's not saying much and he spends his entire story being dismissed and ignored. How am I supposed to see him as a threat?
You're all unfortunately too stupid to realise what Kage represents. You call it lazy when the only lazy ones are you people who don't even try to analyse the story.
I love sf but one thing I dont like are all the ryu like characters, ryu, ken, dan, sakura, akuma, sean, oni, now kage, they may have some small differences but at the core theyre kind of just ryu which is a bit lazy, its not like kyo and iori at first they were similar but they changed kyo's style so it wouldnt be as similar as iori
That's called a "shoto", almosy every game have their own shot. While in SF at the beggining Ryu and Ken were exactly the same, i think that after SF Alpha 2 all the shotos are solidly different.
@@rockk9753 No. Not for any reason Ken and Ryu aren't in the same tier in almost every game. Using these two, Ryu is by far a more deffensive character and focuses more in his Hadouken while Ken is more like a shoto-rushdown based in the ofensive, Akuma for example is also a kind of shoto-rushdow but more agressive than Ken and with less health.
He's always had a sense of moral code. He won't fight anyone he doesn't deem worthy, this includes anything that won't make the fight fair, like once he stopped a fight midway against Gen (who he had already deemed a worthy foe) when he saw him coughing up blood and staggering since he saw he was terminally ill and couldn't fight to his fullest. It's also Canon that he used to live on an island alone and would make people who sought him out help build part of his house before he allowed them to challenge him. Interestingly enough, however, I believe in his story in SF5 he actually kills Gen, and since 5 takes place after 4, it could be reflective of him losing more and more of his humanity to ultimately become Oni. Akuma loses himself entirely since Oni is his own entity, one who doesn't hold any moral code at all
God I forgot how much I hated this game. Shit redesigns, piss-weak story and retconning the only GOOD parts of the lore. Imma stick with ST4, the last good street fighter game in my opinion.
@@qstogg7955 What? I’m just saying, this is meant to be watched for the story. If you care so much about watching the gameplay more than the story and thinking this one sucks, you might as well just be off from here and watch some pro play or something. Do you insult everyone thinking they all are stupid btw? Calling me an amateur for no reason?
@@DuckliaOrluxe I’m not sure why you have to bring up a obvious fact who are you captain obvious lol we are all here for the story but that doesn’t change the fact the game play sucks it’s like watching what would of been a good movie but it’s got bad actors do you get what I mean?

Ryu have no interest in fighting Kage because he knows that is what him wants. Ryu tried this path for so long and doesn't succeded in whinning

Ryu really hit him with "if you gotta pee, then pee. but if you don't, don't."

Yeah
Is it just me or does Kage look better in the art than the actual game model
Because he didn’t have those goofy imp horns and/or underbite fangs?
Why is Akuma all of a sudden so protagonististic?
Akuma was never an antagonist per say, he just loves fighting but was never a villain. When he sees a competent fighter he will fight.
I asked this myself when Kage first came out. Akuma has an estranged code of honor
@@lennydickson8845 it's a warriors code of honor

You're all unfortunately too stupid to realise what Kage represents. You call it lazy when the only lazy ones are you people who don't even try to analyse the story.

I love sf but one thing I dont like are all the ryu like characters, ryu, ken, dan, sakura, akuma, sean, oni, now kage, they may have some small differences but at the core theyre kind of just ryu which is a bit lazy, its not like kyo and iori at first they were similar but they changed kyo's style so it wouldnt be as similar as iori
That's called a "shoto", almosy every game have their own shot. While in SF at the beggining Ryu and Ken were exactly the same, i think that after SF Alpha 2 all the shotos are solidly different.
@@unsasakiconsombrero6948 not really theyre still basically the same
@@rockk9753 No. Not for any reason Ken and Ryu aren't in the same tier in almost every game. Using these two, Ryu is by far a more deffensive character and focuses more in his Hadouken while Ken is more like a shoto-rushdown based in the ofensive, Akuma for example is also a kind of shoto-rushdow but more agressive than Ken and with less health.
@@unsasakiconsombrero6948 so basically the same
@@rockk9753 Not at all. If they were the same, they would be in the same tier.
Huh?Kage win all person is he death?
that kage not Ryu
so akuma is a good guy?
He's always had a sense of moral code. He won't fight anyone he doesn't deem worthy, this includes anything that won't make the fight fair, like once he stopped a fight midway against Gen (who he had already deemed a worthy foe) when he saw him coughing up blood and staggering since he saw he was terminally ill and couldn't fight to his fullest. It's also Canon that he used to live on an island alone and would make people who sought him out help build part of his house before he allowed them to challenge him.
Interestingly enough, however, I believe in his story in SF5 he actually kills Gen, and since 5 takes place after 4, it could be reflective of him losing more and more of his humanity to ultimately become Oni. Akuma loses himself entirely since Oni is his own entity, one who doesn't hold any moral code at all
I got got sf5 and I became a try main I like his counters but a child so I'm not godlike with it
gaming king TT should I get sfv now or wait for the arcade edition?
God I forgot how much I hated this game. Shit redesigns, piss-weak story and retconning the only GOOD parts of the lore. Imma stick with ST4, the last good street fighter game in my opinion.
Street fighter 2nd impact and 3rd strike is the best imo ....the parrying in that game set the bar
Street fighter 5's story was ass but it's gameplay was far superior imo like bro shun goku Satsu becomes 10x badass and stuff
Bill them all! For taco bell
CPU is way too easy to beat
See these people too buff u can't even compare Tekken to it even the women is ripped
Joan Heartless people in tekken are unrealistically masculine lol

Terrible game play
Speak for yourself.
It’s mainly uploaded for story, not skill
@@DuckliaOrluxe amateur of course you wouldn’t understand 😂
@@qstogg7955 What? I’m just saying, this is meant to be watched for the story. If you care so much about watching the gameplay more than the story and thinking this one sucks, you might as well just be off from here and watch some pro play or something. Do you insult everyone thinking they all are stupid btw? Calling me an amateur for no reason?
@@DuckliaOrluxe I’m not sure why you have to bring up a obvious fact who are you captain obvious lol we are all here for the story but that doesn’t change the fact the game play sucks it’s like watching what would of been a good movie but it’s got bad actors do you get what I mean?
@@qstogg7955 Yeah, I know the gameplay is uh... mediocre or something, but just have some respect or understand that not everyone is that great at gameplay, especially those who are new to the game.
rubbish story as usual
They turned Ryu and Akuma into menstruating women. Capcom disgraced the legacy of the Satsui no Hado. Kage is their one saving grace.
What happened bro?
