I don't know. Sometimes the games makes it seem them they're like barely less than 4 ft tall and then in cutscenes they're about like 5 foot tall. The height difference for them is always so inconsistent in Capcom games.
All i know about this guy comes from people on the internet and UNIST gameplay, i never heard him talk or read any of his dialogs so i thought he was some kind of mean soldier dude that beats the crap out of everyone since he is so serious looking and has that red eye in the cut in. But this guy is a bro, like, no taunts, no insults, all compliments and good vibes. I know that this VA sounds a little more "nice" too, but idk... i kinda like it
I don't know what's fitting. The fact that Thunder God Akatsuki is voiced by Owain, or the fact that he's also voiced by Faust. Now uh... My Blitz hand twitches for that three-second kill for injecting love!
Yo rly? Owain's VA? I mean I already caught mela lee who voiced tiki. I believe she is one of these fighters as well. I just bought the special edition so its all unfamiliar at the moment
Yurie V So you’re just pointing that it’s an actual mispronounciation of her name by the announcer. Gotcha and not gonna lie, I think that’s just the announcer at work. She’s borderline mispronouncing others names as well.
There is a reason for that, it's a play on their meeting in UNI's arcade mode.... where Akat makes the mistake of assuming that Hilda is some... hooker... when they get to talking.
@@DuvJones ikr, hilarious even without knowing this, but even more if understanding the reference. Akatsuki x Hilda best pairing don't @ me, very surprising to see that he has interaction with her in the first place.
@@DuvJones another way to interpret it is that he thought she was an assassin. Considering how many other people who’d picked a fight with him up to that point, it would make sense.
If Murakumo gets in I wanna see his ninja run in all its high resolution glory. Also....Akatsuki....Murakumo.....you'll probably dont get it. EDIT: Japanese WW2 ships.
Sort-of. He's apart of Imperial Japanese (along Fritz and Murakumo (though he's way more worse than both of them)), that is a terrorist organization. Especially in real life.
8:53, Okay, he might smell because he just fought hand-to-hand, he might be kinda dorky because he isn't used to today's technollogy. But ugly? My nigga looks good even on a uniform, god knows how will he look when trying to look handsome
Akatsuki and Heart is the kind of couple I'd ship for. I mean, one is an instrument of war, the other is an instrument of love. Dont you think that sounds romantic?
I mean, I know Izanagi is the creator deity, but it's a God using thunder-based skills. Definitely still qualifies. Again, even just the surname Narukami meaning Thunder God is enough reason.
If Mycale (Perfecti) & En-Eins added in 2.5 or 3.0: Akatsuki: Don’t think you can backstab me so easily like that man. Mycale (Perfecti): Hmph. If you insist. This alliance is only temporary, prototype soldier. En-Eins: Enemies in bound. Ready when you are, commander. Akatsuki: I’ve always prepared for this. Let’s watch our back.
Another gnarly idea would be to throw in Daemon bride the series that Examu (for some bizarre reason) wants to forget. That game looked so dope and metal. Pekomaru and Dusk would be my definite mains
Spiller Aaron Well that’s how you say it properly in English As the other commenter already said, a lot of people are familiar with the name from Naruto, and the English dub kinda butchers the pronunciation
One of my fav new characters. Thanks for this. I've teamed him w/Tager & Aigis. Enjoyed those, Heart's, Orie's and Jubei's! I want to try those characters w/him. :)
I'm am B-tatsu to my bone. Steel is my body, Thunder is my blood. I have created over a thousands fists. Unknown to death, nor known to life. Have withstood pain to create Thunderstorms. Yet, those hands will never hold anything.. So, as I pray...... Unlimited CHESTO WORK!

Sir Smiteful It isn’t. she is referred as that
Yurie V Who has said her name like that. I’m talking about her NAME btw, not the actual word “Aegis”
Da BLAZINGBRYAN I’m not talking to you. Btw I was referring to the announcer pronouncing her name that way
Yurie V So you’re just pointing that it’s an actual mispronounciation of her name by the announcer. Gotcha and not gonna lie, I think that’s just the announcer at work. She’s borderline mispronouncing others names as well.
Nice to see Akatsuki getting along with most people.
Would anyone want to see a fighting game with just the fist fighters?
We could try a mugen version of it. Or a modded BBTAG version where only the fist characters are selectable.
8:03 Ngl Akatsuki saying he gets deja vu from Orie makes me think he's referencing Anonym.

Well that the proper way to pronounce the name, you’re probably used to the English dub of Naruto kinda saying it wrong
Spiller Aaron
Well that’s how you say it properly in English
As the other commenter already said, a lot of people are familiar with the name from Naruto, and the English dub kinda butchers the pronunciation
They also mispronounce Aegis' name
And it was how they pronounced it in Persona 3, so it is the proper pronunciation.
Robert Clark well since p3 they changed the spelling from Aigis to Aegis

Nope. The Flonne is even stronger with her.
