For those wondering, his ending refrain after Raging Demon in Japanese is 我、拳を極めし者 Ware, ken wo kiwameshi mono Which is not just Japanese, but it's 1000 year old Classical Japanese that suggests an ancient, godlike confidence and power. I know because I translate Classical Japanese stories and put them up here on RUclips, and I can't express enough how straight up cool it is. Edit: I also looked up the kanji to figure out what it is. The first 一瞬千撃 Isshun sengeki Lit: "1 instant 1000 attacks" The second 抜山蓋世 Batsuzan gaisei, meaning something like "Herculean strength," more literally "strength to rip out mountains and dominate the world." 鬼哭啾啾 Kikoku shushu Meaning "wailing of demons/ghosts" more literally "Demons (oni/ki) 鬼, "weep" (naku/koku) 哭, and then the kanji for "wail" (naku/shu) 啾 repeated twice so you know they're wailing a lot. And lastly 故豪鬼成 I'm not entirely sure how he's pronouncing this one, but I think it's something like Yue Goki nari Which means something like "Therefore, I am/have become the almighty demon" ('almighty demon being Goki [豪鬼] which is his name in Japanese for those who are unaware).
@smward87 I don’t think so because in Street Fighter V I think you can see Akuma warp around his opponent before each hit when he does the Raging Demon
@@user-qx9py5fs8e I never cared for this whole “wild man” look they started giving him, but at the very least you could count on them including the classic look to counter that. But now even the classic Akuma looks bad because they beefed him up so ridiculously. They didn’t need to give him muscles upon muscles to show his strength. In fact I find him more intimidating with a slim build yet still being powerful enough to destroy mountains. The muscle bro look is just too much.
One anime trope I've always loved is the Old Muscle God. Akuma has always looked young, but now he looks like an old grizzled beast made of pure muscle and spite. So freaking dope.
"I walk this lonely road, the only road that I am allowed to roam. If you step on by, I'll uppercut you so hard you'll leave my home." -the opening verse to Akuma's Boulevard of Broken Bones
It's pretty much like Shin Akuma is his normal form now since he chooses not to go any further and become Oni, which would cause him to lose all humanity.
I cannot fathom how _everything_ in SF6 is good. It's a masterpiece. I have zero gripes with none of the characters, love all their designs (or re-designs), love the music, love World Tour, love the Hub and the Avatar (and Avatar battles), love all the game modes, love how detailed Practice mode is to train, love the option to go Classic or Modern controls. It's just... I'm blown away by this game. And now THIS new Akuma design is fire, can't wait.
Es porque CAPCOM tomo en cuenta las críticas de SFV. Eso sí también puede meter la pata con las costosas skins o el pase de batalla pero dejando eso de lado es muy buen juego de lucha.
Bet you also love cr. mk into DR meta, raw DR jab beating anything even when you read its coming, corner carry with one interaction, the game being all about skipping neutral with gambly moves, etc, etc. if you have no clue what im talking about or how that affects the game, consider yourself blessed. the netcode is better than V, Ill give you that, but the game is still scrubby as hell, plagued with forced guessing situations to give newcomers the feeling they can beat anyone and spoiling the party for the competitive scene. watching daigo win so many games off throw looping 4 times in a row is definitely a new low for the series.
@@EpsilonKnight2Honestly from a lore standpoint I dig the choice if the Avatar can't use Raging Demon. The only man capable of pulling the Raging Demon... Is the demon himself.
2:19 and 6:00: This move might be based on the one found on "Street Fighter Legacy: Assassin's Fist" by Joey Ansah and Christian Howard. It's Master Goutetsu's "Metsu Gou Sho Ken" that he used on Gouki/Akuma during their death match.
He already reached that form in Ultra SF4. He detests it because he'd lose all humanity. What we're seeing is Shin Akuma(the level right before Oni)as his normal form now.
Gouki's Super 2 is a reference Street Fighter Assassin's Fist where Goutetsu pins Gouki to the tree and releases ki through him during their fight. The way he walks is in the intro with the swagger could also be a reference to AF.
I think this is hands down the coolest Akuma we've gotten yet. Love the new design and his gameplay looks absolutely insane. ALSO THAT RAGING DEMON IS THE SICKEST SHIT EVER!!! Cannot wait to try him out
The pin to the ground death stare punch hit hard Luke level 3 but you run into the dangerous street fighter His scrunched up angry beady eye face looks so badass
I like how Akuma took offense to the guy attempting to block his Go-Shoryu, and he hit harder as a result. The world tour with him as a master is going to be crazy.
The trailer itself is already a 10 outta 10 w the last-minute demon but the reaction from the yovg crew made it even better. Can't wait for Akuma Legacy...T8, and now SF6 edition.
James Cameron approaches the white board "Raging Demon", he writes He pauses, and adds a letter "Raging Demons" A longer pause, then he changes that letter "Raging Demon$"

The hype was so real for the demon that the audio turned demonic.
I laughed really hard when the audio got distorted
I think he had some lingering hype from Slayer's reveal.
@@brickpuncher1429 Tbf both were so hype that it was leaking through the screen
The noise gate and limiter indeed kicked in
Microphone died 1000 deaths
SF6 devs be casually droping the coolest Raging Demon ever.
1,000 deaths, 1 akuma per death
1 like = 1,000 Deaths
I think I liked the 5 one more
Nothing casual about this drop
@@scottyj8655it has its differences but for what this game offers each are phenomenal in their own right
The mic distortion was pretty appropriate with what was going on with that raging demon
The mic peaking during the raging demon git so well
everyone literally cut off LOL
anyone know what he says during the super? i heard become the demon but cant make out what he said before it
Best thing ever
@@Cofixx It sounds like: "Die a thousand deaths... Usurp the heavens. Embrace the sorrow. Become the demon."
Avatar: Train me, Mr. Akuma!
Akuma: First Lesson? *Die.*
Akuma: Only through the death of the flesh can you be reborn through the Satsui no Hado
Lmfao 😂right??? Bro landed head first too.. done🤣
Dragon punched into oblivion right off cuff. Hell of a way to start class
This is going to be a much more violent show than "Teach Me, Miss Litchi" or "Help Me, Professor Kokonoe"
(Gets back up)
"Hmph. Good".
"Only 999 more to go"...
Die 1,000 Deaths by 1,000 Akuma. Good one, Capcom.
Each Akuma responsible for 1000 deaths.
We are talking about dying 1.000.000 deaths! The numbers don't lie!
There's enough meat there to blot out the sun.
lmao
That's a ratio of 1 akuma/death!
@@WaddleDee45and thus, we shall fight in the shade.
That demon was so hyped even the audio couldn't handle it
For those wondering, his ending refrain after Raging Demon in Japanese is
我、拳を極めし者
Ware, ken wo kiwameshi mono
Which is not just Japanese, but it's 1000 year old Classical Japanese that suggests an ancient, godlike confidence and power. I know because I translate Classical Japanese stories and put them up here on RUclips, and I can't express enough how straight up cool it is.
Edit: I also looked up the kanji to figure out what it is. The first
一瞬千撃
Isshun sengeki
Lit: "1 instant 1000 attacks"
The second
抜山蓋世
Batsuzan gaisei, meaning something like "Herculean strength," more literally "strength to rip out mountains and dominate the world."
鬼哭啾啾 Kikoku shushu
Meaning "wailing of demons/ghosts" more literally "Demons (oni/ki) 鬼, "weep" (naku/koku) 哭, and then the kanji for "wail" (naku/shu) 啾 repeated twice so you know they're wailing a lot.
And lastly
故豪鬼成
I'm not entirely sure how he's pronouncing this one, but I think it's something like
Yue Goki nari
Which means something like
"Therefore, I am/have become the almighty demon" ('almighty demon being Goki [豪鬼] which is his name in Japanese for those who are unaware).
Thanks for the info.
bro u turn the 拳 into 券。 券 is ticket ,拳 is fist。
@@exwuya6443 oops. Thanks for pointing that out lol
Wait really
@@Thehunter905 Yep. They killed it with his design.
Akuma got tired of making you die 1000 deaths so he made a 1000 clones to each kill you once. Truly a master of his craft
Nah that's how the move has always worked. They're just finally showing it in it's intereity instead of obscuring it.
@smward87 I don’t think so because in Street Fighter V I think you can see Akuma warp around his opponent before each hit when he does the Raging Demon
@@retrorandom8009Those are his clones or something
2:53 The way their audio bugged the hell out when this happened had my dying LMAO
The RD was so powerful the audio couldn’t handle the hype
This is the best Akuma has ever looked.
As an Akuma main, for damn sure
Visually, I disagree.
@@TheVampireEd Why so?
@@user-qx9py5fs8e I never cared for this whole “wild man” look they started giving him, but at the very least you could count on them including the classic look to counter that.

Akuma has even surpassed human anatomy. That is not how a human back is supposed to look
Yujiro Hanma
He’s human?
@@OGP2293 barely, but yes
Basically Yujiro Hanma BEFORE Yujiro Hanma...
@@SidneyMosleyIs Akuma really comes before Baki the Grappler Manga?
He broke maxs mic lmao
*max's
Nah, Steve maxed out Max's mic.
The mic peaking was INSANE lmao
be funny if his video glitched out l😂
*Raging Demon turned into a freaking Domain Expansion*
Akuma did it first.
@@XxDream_CasterxXyeah, that's fair lol
Holy carp I was thinking the same XD.
It has always been a domain expansion
Fist Domain
One anime trope I've always loved is the Old Muscle God. Akuma has always looked young, but now he looks like an old grizzled beast made of pure muscle and spite. So freaking dope.
Finally street fighter 6 is getting tekken 7 collab. I'm glad that it's first guest character
That’s a joke right?
I've been waiting for a good Tekken 7 character to finally make it into street fighter! All prayers have been answered 🙏🏻
I didn't think it was possible since SxT. But here we are with tekken akuma guest character in sf6. Let's go !
Fuck you beat me to the joke😂
@@unchaineddemigod794wow you’re a smart one, how’d you manage to figure this one out!
I love how akuma's Level 3 is nothing flashy, but just straight terror in that death punch💀
Well I guess Ryu will not be selectable after his release 🪦
Punch snapped that man's neck, Ryu ain't walking that off. Oof!

I love how everyone has the reaction of "Where's the demon?!" and then it drops 😂
2:51
Raging Demon looks absolutely sick
"Sick" is an understatement.
There were no words to describe just how- ANIME AS FUCK that was. My mind was completely blown when I saw that.
My 8 year old child has awakened again
The best ever by FAR!
Call me a conterarian. But.... I kinda liked it better when the screen went completely black.
Best demon so far, ut have you seen that level 2? Its like a savage fire hashogeki
Akuma legit looks like some shit you would fight in Monster Hunter now and I'm 100% completely okay with that.
I mean, he was actual dlc for MH: Sunbreak
Rajang
That was my initial thought too! :D
He was fighting rajangs Jack in rise so it makes sense
He can be a Elden Ring secret boss
[GLITCHED AUDIO] = LEGENDARY.
Yujirou hanma: I have a demon back
Akuma: i AM the DEMON!
I was waiting for someone to make a comment like this.
Notice that his face now turns dark when does demon/satsui no hado moves.
I didn't even notice
Yeah cause that stuff only hapoened to Oni right? Meaning akuma is finally up there
@@Dabajawshe chooses not to become Oni though he's definitely up there in power now.
This is the most intimidating Akuma has ever looked and I’m so with this
Akuma is just muscle on muscle and him using the shadows and the new raging demon looks fantastic
Akuma's blood type is definitely HGH haha
@@MoonlightStriderlmao. Great comment.
Imagine having a body like that, you would be a legend on the streets
gotta say I'm in love with the colors on his default outfit. Making him look as ghostly and inhuman as possible was the right call
My mouth was open the entire time Demon was shown, my God the animations.
The white hair REALLY suits him, I love this iteration of Akuma 🎉🎉
I can't lie this version of akuma is 10x cooler than any previous incarnation of the character.
I can't believe what i'm looking at...
U mean looks wise or gameplay or both?😂
@@OGP2293 BOTH!
It's pretty much like Shin Akuma is his normal form now since he chooses not to go any further and become Oni, which would cause him to lose all humanity.
Am I the only that was expecting the character avatar to piss their pants with that zoom in?
I'm sure we were all expecting it considering what was happening 😅
Steve's audio is an approximation of what you go through when getting Demon'd.
I love how this Raging Demon shows that it's 1000 clones of Akuma smacking you around
His raging demon has to be the sickest ive ever seen!!
2:51
I have no words. Only uncontrollable laughter from excitement overload. Most badass Raging Demon ever.
I cannot fathom how _everything_ in SF6 is good. It's a masterpiece.

Just realized it must’ve been a nightmare getting the Raging Demon to work with custom avatars
@@pigglesgoomshby7249 Sadly they may not allow customs to use it since it'll be a 2nd level 3 option lol.

Is the demon himself.
I love that they gave him his teleport grab from Omega SF4

*Yes, this is the Street Fighter I hunger for!*
Edit: holy crap his voice actor is Christopher Guerrero, Anis from Overlord and cooler from TFS!
Mr Dumbass Tree himself?

Interesting...
Akuma now looks like Andre the blacksmith from Dark souls series
Good Isekai route
Hey, isn't it possible to attack that blacksmith? And get FISTED for doing so?!
XD
2:55 - The way the mic got overblown created an audio effect that was simply perfect for the visual spectacle.
Akuma must’ve really been beefing himself up after those fights with Kazuya and Asura.
Akuma looks absolutely wild! And that Raging Demon was absolutely amazing! They definitely went all out for Akuma
He's slowly becoming Oni.
He already reached that form in Ultra SF4. He detests it because he'd lose all humanity. What we're seeing is Shin Akuma(the level right before Oni)as his normal form now.
Akuma: "My strength has become too great for one body to contain. I have chosen to franchise."
STEEB'S Voice broke to the sound barrier...
Some say that it can be heard by extraterrestrial beings far beyond our universe...
I feel like that audio break from the reaction, is what you'd expect when you get HIT with a Raging Demon! lol
Woke up to this
Same literally. I got up a minute ago
Got demon'd on wake-up
That Raging Demon was a Domain Expansion~
Its always is.
Raging demon was so strong it killed the audio
Gouki's Super 2 is a reference Street Fighter Assassin's Fist where Goutetsu pins Gouki to the tree and releases ki through him during their fight. The way he walks is in the intro with the swagger could also be a reference to AF.
Let's Go!!! SF6 has finally begun!
finally a good dlc character
Frfr!
The demon was so strong that even broke the microphone.
I think this is hands down the coolest Akuma we've gotten yet. Love the new design and his gameplay looks absolutely insane. ALSO THAT RAGING DEMON IS THE SICKEST SHIT EVER!!! Cannot wait to try him out
This man came back from his field trip fighting Mishimas in Tekken 7 with a whole new bag of tricks
I love how it looks like your transported to another dimension when you see all of them in the grey dark during the demon...that was epic
The demon is pissed he wasn't in the main roster.... so he ate a large amount of BEEF and trained to kill all!
Bro Akuma just pulled a Naruto with that Raging Demon. That was epic!
Uzumaki Barrage! Someone outta make a meme of when Naruto manhandled Gaara with that Jutsu lol
All those years of fighting the Mishimas gave this man a full beard and gray hair
Wow.
Akuma on May 22?
Probably the best birthday present I've gotten in a decade.
The hype was so huge, they nearly killed the audio
Akuma be like: Shadow Demon no Jutsu!
It seems like he is slowly turning into Oni with each game he appears in and that is badass.
Love that we are able to see what happens in the Raging Demon in the past few SF games
The pin to the ground death stare punch hit hard
Luke level 3 but you run into the dangerous street fighter
His scrunched up angry beady eye face looks so badass
🎉🔥 Street fighter 6 release date confirmed !! Can't wait to finally play this game 🙌
Akuma main since sf4. So much content to make 5/22! Max damage Akuma combos coming soon!
I like how Akuma took offense to the guy attempting to block his Go-Shoryu, and he hit harder as a result. The world tour with him as a master is going to be crazy.
That Akuma is bussin'! MF became a real deal demon now!
The best raging demon ever. I'm very happy with this Akuma
Akuma DEFINITELY didn't sugarcoat it in that intro with the default character
That Raging Demon was jaw dropping. Holy shit he is so cool
Akuma is such a nifty nickel.
They gave the best combo game to Akuma; that's what they did.
“They’re probably not gonna show it…” turning into [inaudible] was absolutely perfect to go with the surprise reveal.
Max saying “they are going to take away DJ’s legs” is low key the funniest shit I’ve heard in a while 😂
POV: *cac walks in a dank ass cave*
Akuma: “time to shuriken a child to DEATH!! 😅
Shuriken
2:55 WHY DID IT SOUND LIKE HE WAS HIT BY IT IRL???
I love that audio goes in and out lol
I'm so excited for Akuma. SF6 really should have at the bare minimum 6 new characters every year and at least 4 new stages a year.
The best Ragin' Demon EVER!
The Raging Demon is here
One of the best interpretations of the raging demon. Creative team did an awesome job with this.
