    https://www.zen-buddhism.net/what-is-kiko-or-japanese-qigong/

    stumble on this site that explains what Kiko is.

    She also have "Kiko" in all movest that involve use hands to generate azure ki 😄

     

    Kikoken - her classic special fireball

    Kikosho - the giant ass ki explosion super

    Renkiko - focus ki energy on her hands (SFV V-trigger)

     

    There are also more obscure ones from lesser games like Kikoanken, Kikosho Goku, Kikou Hououken and all is stuff that in common have her generating ki with hands, they don't use this for any kick special/super

    Appreciate your response and insight @CESTUS III

    You're welcome buddy, anything that make us talk during these empty SF days is good 😁

     

    You made me think a good debate point to wait Akuma's day could be try to drop credible list of the few characters that canon wise can have that even small chance at get that W over him (even if story wise we know they will preserve him for Ryu)

     

    As said before even trying to be as "generous" as possible can't think many, to involve as many as possible would guess even particular story situations/unique scenarios up to weird theories, tell me what you think:

     

    LEGIT CHANCE

    ORO - dude is closest to Akuma's destructive power and similar (possibly even more extreme) figure, as far we know a SF3 fight would have ended up in mutual distruction/death

    GOUKEN - incredible Master, knows Akuma's power ature and style, developed techniques on his own to contrast him and got already some wins in the past (even if today i will favor Akuma for the simple reason after SF4 defeat he's training new different stuff Gouken never seen... his post-SF4 training likely has been about pierce Mu no Ken)

    RYU - well, we simply know at some point he will reach the level to defeat him. Unknown how decent or small his chances are in SF6, iirc speaking about himself he said something like "not there yet". I have a very lame theory on what can be his next BIG power-up (actually 2 different ones, both anime cliche af), but it would involve some story events

     

    CONSIDERING FUTURE + HUGE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT + WHAT IF/WILD THEORIES

    GILL- One Oro's quote have him believing Gill to possibly have potential immense enough to be his successor (only other considered for this is Ryu*) , possibly survived unscathed SGS using Resurrection. Seems also hinted we never seen him fight seriously/to his full current potential (but to be fair in SF3 Oro does'nt seem to consider him already fully "developed", more like a prospect for future growth like in Ryu's case). Plus i have very wild theory on Gill's Resurrection that if true may give him legit help against Akuma, but again that's so unproven and weak personal theory that's not even worthy mention it lol

     

    BISON - Is very likely no version of Bison we ever seen could have chance of defeat Akuma, with exception maybe of SFV one if things went differently... but that's already a "what if" that did'nt happened. But is true his character concept has been created in a way that future versions will likely have new artificial gimmicks to expand his maximum power further past limits. We must also admit he never had the chance of fight using a perfect host body

     

    NECALLI - This would require bunch of "what if", like him being still alive and him devouring bunch of fighters (becoming more powerful and absorbing some of their skills) before attempt at take on Akuma again. He seems to even have possibly some natural inclination to face SnH, but when he faced Akuma he was simply to weak to have any chance. But again point is simply that by design his char like Bison have the potential to immensely power up in ways normal human fighters can't

     

    SETH- i consider Seth shit, i'm simply placing him/her here for very same reason of Bison/Necalli since also in this case the character has been created with special story that allow it to evolve at way faster/more extreme rate than normal humans. Like i'm not even sure where place SFV Seth on the food chain but even if "not enough" othing prevent capcom writers to have it destroyed again and give it a new further evolution

     

    G (?) - This got me even to drop a "?" because thing is i'm guessing IF part of G SFV trolling has been about hide full extent of his power, to begin with would like to know if his " "volcano form" is going to become one day canon or if is just an idea that appeared on his concept sketches but they completely dropped it.**

    But is also possible G is'nt even trolling about his abilities (or current abilities) and we seen full extent of his power, with it being above average but not incredible, and his secrets only conceal his motivations/knowledge

     

    Worth say due anime shonen dynamics Akuma have kinda safe plot shield from basically anybody because they will preserve him for Ryu (sure Gouken in SF4 been a thing, but still links to Ryu's life. I also believe Akuma's evolution suprassed/will surpass Gouken, forcing Ryu to completely new heights), no other boss/villain will take Akuma's head as trophy before Ryu got his waited for decades cathartic victory over ginger devilshoto.

    But afterward? Akuma would have -FUCKING FINALLY- fullfilled his fuction of be Ryu's finish line, wonder if that would mean loss of plot shield and becoming sacrifical meat to hype up new villains allowing them to fuck him up lol

    Considering capcom lack the balls to do it to Bison even if story would justify it much more, i doubt will ever happen to Akuma... but one can dream, and these angry fans tears would be delicious 😆

     

    * i don't necessary believe Ryu and Gill are the only alive wich such high potential to be Oro's successor, but i think an hypothetic third candidate would have to fit their young age/room for learning... like despite superior power he never considered turn Akuma into Senjutsu successor and likely would not consider Gouken either, for the fact they're already estabilished Masters and past the point of trasform them into something else.

    He also offered to train Ken, Mel(guess because he's very young) and Alex (but not before Alex train 20 more years on his own), but in their cases he never seems to have done it in order to find his successor, just offering them to express/develop their full potential

    In SFV seems also to consider Luke a rare special one (even if of course as today he's nothing still)

    "Another chick has hatched. Shall I live to see him come of age?"

    As much lot people would hate read this, seems the closest to him have actual genuine interest for himself like with Gill/Ryu, rather than simply altruistic offer training

     

    **i have theory on G "volcano form" too, but again we are on personal theories bullshit, btw since we are at it, some considerations of mine

    First, G's power seems to come from outside rather than generated by himself... proof is he literally can recharge it by absorbing earth energy

    Considering G's role of Gaia's avatar wonder if in his SFV he was conceded just enough power to fullfil his duty as Gaia's Ambassador between people and try to spread a message... my guess "monster form" may be a fully overcharged G with a different duty(assuming to some extent Gaia/Earth indeed have some sentient nature to give G duties), no more ambassador but destroyer

    As said is wild theory, but can be considered Oro himself does'nt take him lightly

    "I don't know who you are, but you appear to be the manifestation of a natural disaster."

    also the Rose-Oro talk link him to the immense disaster that seem is coming (wich in Rose words would be "end of everything"), and would not count impossible IF G's "volcano form" it's indeed a thing it may be the being to trigger it... how Rose described it? "As if a gigantic glacer fell into ocean", and monster G looks like a fucking human volcano... maybe he can cause it with his magma based power boosted to limits we still have to see (all while his chosen people are safe in his space ship)

     

    To add theories to theories guess Gill's vision of leading humanity (the chosen ones of course) into new world is based also on Secret Society future predictions having seen this "G apocalypse" happening... worth mention Gill/SS don't claim they will be the ones causing it, only that they will lead humanity in the new world afterwards

     

    Btw linking Gill/SS to G guess may even lead us to talk about the never explained G - Q mystery in this absurd post  that does'nt even link to Akuma anymore, but i'll stop here lmao

    New Aki outfit is giving me Vash from Trigun vibes.

    this chinese assassin guy from Fate Grand Order may work too, imagine it as a girl

    S235A1IconRaw.webp

    maybe for the black open "shirt" mixed with this other assassin girl ever from Fate Grand Order who is a master with poison

    403927.jpg?s=19d3cd3e83dc3b82a6e2d828078

     

    interessing similarity are some of her descriptions

     

    "The assassins took the concept of a "Poison Damsel," a story told in ancient India, and brought it to fruition in a form of assassination tool. That is the nature of her existence. "

     

    "Her beauty is but an illusion. Her body is immune to all sorts of poisons yet is the collection of all poisons. Her nails, her skin and even her body fluids are toxic, and she has silenced many kings and generals in their bedrooms."

     

    "All that matters to her is whether those she touches live, or die.
    So if her Master possesses a strong resistance to poison, that would be quite the sight for her to see.

    Try though she might to contain herself, she would grow excited and follow her Master around, leaning on them. "

     

    Lot of AKI vibes there, last one also remember me how she threat our avatar in WTM and her being amazed by FANG

    Chun-Li to Akuma: "Just as fearsome as ever. No matter how much kiko I mold, it's always barely enough."

     

    Thoughts: I may be thinking a little too deep with this one.
    Canonically, very few fighters can keep up with, let alone match, the fearsome Akuma. And despite all of the WWs  growing up, getting stronger, and seasoned with more experience, Akuma is still almost the pinnacle when it comes to overall fighting strength and capabilities.
     

    Chun-Li mentions how she has to utilize her kiko, of which I assume she's referring to her chi for all her techniques, to just to stand a chance for survival, let alone winning a fight against him. It's not Chun-Li's kung fu, nor her speed, agility, or kicking power that would be the deciding factor, but her kiko. My guess is that Chun-Li's chi can at least hold back against the power of the Satsui no Hado, and that may have been just enough for Chun-Li to get a few hits in to swing the fight in to just slightly her favor.

     

    I'm curious about how Chun-Li's chi has evolved over time. I'm sure it was her father who taught her all her techniques. But i'm wondering having some run-ins or sessions with Gen has allowed her chi to become strong enough to take on Akuma. Gen is one of the few who can rival Akuma, so it wouldn't be out of place if Gen passed down some meditation or chi cultivation technique that would strengthen Chun's chi to fend off evil forces.

     

    200w.gif?cid=6c09b952lifn5z27sappboejg6k

     

    Tbh yes, i fear you're reading too much into this

    I admire fan dedication, but we should never go full Daemos 😁

     

    I mean, when it comes to vs Akuma win quotes Capcom is FORCED to make up something to write for the ingame scenario where Chun Li player defeat Akuma player, but canon wise most of SF cast including Chun have simply no chance to win... I'm not talking have 1% chance, i'm saying Akuma in a normal fight by plot would simply win 100 out 100

     

    To offer perspective SFV have win quotes for Dan defeating Akuma and Oro (in latter case even being unimpressed by Senjutsu lol), let that sink 😆

     

    Returning to SF6 take Zangief winning one

    "Hah! My muscles took everything you had! Even that pesky murderous intent! Gahaha! "

     

    Now, Gief is one of my absolute favs (in combo with hate Akuma), and i absolutely loved how Capcom hyped up whole "muscle power" gimmick through SFV arc... but no, canon wise Zangief is'nt going to tank everything Akuma have, slam him the fuck out and then laugh about it as if was relatively normal feat lol.

    WOULD BE AWESOME and i would drink every single bad taste SF fan tear like a vampire, but is not happening

     

      As somebody who dislike him but that still have to stick to canon Capcom gave us, sad reality is we can straight consider fake shit almost any win quote gainst him, beside maybe Ryu for obvious reasons and these very very few that may have remote chance at that

     

    On the Chun being possibly on par with Gen thing, tbh i really doubt SF6 Chun is even close to SFA Gen (who was more focused on martial arts and had many more decades to train), and SFA Gen himself due his disease was doomed to inevitably lose to SFA Akuma (their interaction/narrative gimmick was based on that), and Akuma did nothing but improve since these days

     

    But i concede SF6 Chun would probably make SFA Gen sweat, surely more than any other previous Chun Li

    Akuma to Chun-Li: This is the extent of your abilities!? 

     

     

    Thoughts: The short version is, "I'm stronger than you". As I mentioned above, Akuma outclasses Chun in almost every way canonically. If they fought 100x, i see this happening canonically 95 to 99 out of 100. He's just too fearsome and powerful. And Chun's winquote states that her kiko alone is barely enough, and that's probably just to survive, let alone win. Even with Chun-Li growing stronger, Akuma is just, and will always be, too much.

    No other reaction really, Chun-Li and Akuma don't have any run-ins against each other in canon. So there isn't anything too deep or meaningful that I wished would've been acknowledged.

    The "Akuma defeating people" quotes are kinda the opposite, considering would be almost ever the canon-compatible outcome it's relatively interesting to have Akuma's insight on this or that fighter...

     

    ...too bad Akuma is just an old asshole that will likely talk shit to play down almost anybody who is'nt Ryu*, but despite that in his assholery buried between insults we can at least get an idea of his opinion on this or that character most notable talent/strong point (followed by it sucks and is'nt enough)

     

    Recurrent gimmick seems him aiming at wreck what you're good at

     

    In Chun's case seems to be skill/ability, see

    "This is the extent of your abilities!? "

     

    On Zangief he mention his strenght

    "Your claims of strength are laughable!"

     

    With Luke beside accusing him of be still a cub i think he aim at his fighting spirit/drive (being not enough), wich for sure seems to be Luke's most surprising trait

    "You are lacking, child!"

     

    I'm curious to see what he will say to others

     

    His whole attitude on these in reality is interesting to me, because at least seems very rooted on his perspective of the world

    The whole asshole thing imho is'nt simple "well he's EVIL of course he's asshole", if we imagine his point of view all these characters considering themselves "fighters" or even "warriors" likely piss off and disgust him, for many evident reasons like lack of potential/talent/commitment/skill/conditioning etc etc

     

    We talk about a man who is frustrated 24/7 at the fact he can't get almost anybody able to offer him legit challenge** so confident "fighters" wasting his time end up growing his frustration (by confirming reality furthermore) rather than calm a bit his thirst

     

    It's also interesting his focus on talents, because hint his desperate seek/hope to find a challenge even where there's not

     

    Like even if he have more than enough skill and knowledge to do it, i doubt he would try aim at some delicate/weak vital point facing a flexing Zangief defense, he would likely rather strike where russian's superhuman muscles are thickest, just to proof himself he can break that wall too (and later be pissed at it in the win quote lol)

     

     

     

    *his vs Ryu one

    “This is it? Get up!”

    imply the greater expectations he have on him

     

    ** this piece on Yujiro's depression imho sell the idea, and despite character manners differences Yujiro have exactly same approach on fighters (even if Yujiro mask frustration with ferocious fake amusement, Akuma is straight honest on being angry)

    Rashid - trash, seems shit made by modders

    It's strange, is as if they have trouble imagine cool Rashid alts, even in dropped concepts most were super bad lol, even if of these first two small ones (long blue headcloth and army green ones) were still better than shit we got as 3rd

    F12x_eFXsAA2SvX.jpg

     

    AKI - It's not great but love it, give me lot more FANG vibes than others two

    Seems also something that Bayonetta's Jeanne would approve lol

     

    Ed - i expected that, is the one he got in SF6 story artworks

    whose-baby-is-this-falke-and-eds-psycho-

    Pretty cool evolution of his SFV original standard design btw, plus his first alt already cover perfectly the "boxing rep" thing so it's cool alt goes somewhere else

     

    Akuma- Look's pretty extreme and make sense considering the time skip, i'm cool with it as give him SF4 Oni alt vibes without fall into actual SF4 Oni bullshit

    images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTVXQO9bGTDaI2BPZH6JP6

    love also the fact unintentionally reminds me Ikki's master too, that dude was Akuma waaay before Akuma lol

    I just remembered. The entire roster for this game was leaked including the first season. While it was unintentional and there is no way to know if they would have done it beforehand, the DLC being revealed already worked out very well for them all things considered. It sparked interest in how they would play and got fans hyped especially when they could play the game through betas. With how positive this mistake has been, I feel Capcom will be transparent with every following season. 

    Yeah what i was saying is essentially if parents give you 5$ you're happy kid, but if they get you used to 10$ switch to 5$ afterward will make you bitch because seems get -5 rather than +5 lol

     

    Regardless what was their original idea for seasons, now they're stuck with trasparence or people will bitch in mass

     

    Wich again have pros and cons

    Transparency please immature shit i am that i want to know/seen as much as possible as soon as possible, but i feel would probably prefer a season selection that was'nt "designed" to be sold in advance

    Like i don't even play Honda and yet i'm happy he made it to vanilla cast because otherwise i fear could have not done it (or very late as in SFV) as DLC and same  goes for the kind of "uncool" characters like him, twice as much if devs don't return to 6 chars model

     

    Transparency or blind would have bought SP anyway, so was'nt any deal breaker to me

    Ken Bogard mentioned in this video (in French btw) that a Capcom rep told him that they would reveal the entire Year 2 roster lineup, right when Season 2 begins.

     

    @27:40 

    Tbh i was expecting that, regardless if is true the first leak forced their hand or not to reveal all S1 on launch, at this point do a S2 without reveal names would make fans angry

     

    Best news would have been confirmation of characters number, hope S2 will not be lame ass 4 again

     

    Wish we will get reveal this 22th, but guess we will get nothing... on bright side reveal and 1st char will likely come together

     

    Akuma does almost nothing for me, wait till July/August is going to be looong ass wait lol

    Capcom must be really confident in this lineup then. Crossing my fingers for Makoto or Cody.

    I think is more about transparency to not get audience pissed (or worse get audience refusing to buy Season Pass till they see everybody), but yeah transparency force them also to build up a season they think will sell well... wich is'nt necessary best thing (because may make them scared to do some bold/unpopular but necessary picks), but still cool stuff ahead

     

    26 minutes ago, Jocelot said:

    I really like that they're showing all the characters at once. You can still get hyped and speculate off full reveals tbh

    Yeah we may get even more surprise than first time... maybe we will know just names, and get silhuette thing that does'nt hide identity but hide new redesign wich in SF6 is big deal

    Season 1 we knew from begin all new looks thanks to the leak

     

    Only thing that may be bit risky may be total New character getting only the name and silhuette, but personally would find it intriguing try to guess what char/nation/fightstyle is about... wonder how much we would have guessed right about new faces with only name and silhuette lol

  8. https://www.eventhubs.com/news/2024/may/13/akuma-taunt-comical-proximity-sf6/

     

    The super cool side of this involuntary blocking is that it's pretty accurate portrayal of Satsui no Hado, considering in the story where during a conversation Oro use his ki to "mimic" SnH, and as result Dhalsim's body automatically took a defensive position, recognizing on subconscious level a danger so great to instant trigger his survival instinct without need to THINK about protect himself

     

    Quote

    Oro's eyelids drooped in concentration. His feet crept across the floorboards as he lowered his stance. A breath hissed into his nostrils. Another.

    Danger. Dhalsim's body seemed to know it before his mind was aware, sliding into a defensive stance of its own accord.

    There was a shift in the air. Stroked by a pull that seemed to warp the very darkness of the night, Dhalsim's skin broke out in goosebumps.

    Oro's breath rattled like a rumbling in the ground.

    His eyes, usually so impenetrable, became the red of a wild beast, and his fist was swallowed by a smoky blackness that shamed the night sky.

    The...Satsui no Hado!

     

    the part i loved was that this shock was so great to push Sim well out the peaceful character we know, to the point without a single punch thrown he was already willing to try murder Oro (despite having gentle conversation till that point) because his mind could not imagine anything beyond kill or be killed scenario

    Quote

    The old hermit released his fist with a casual chuckle.
    The dark Hado that had drawn such ultimate malice to Dhalsim's doorstep vanished without a trace.

    "That was the Satsui no Hado. Well, an imitation."

    Dhalsim gasped in relief, and wiped the sweat from his brow.

    "Old man, please don't surprise me like that again."

    Oro just smiled as if nothing serious had happened. Only his eyes showed what they both knew; that he had been overflowing with killing intent until the moment his fist had unclenched, and Dhalsim had been serious about killing him first.

     

    Beside all that on general level i love this

    I wish ALL characters had at least 1 taunt with something even little that reflect a side of the fighter with a minimal impact on gameplay too... make it feel somehow an "action" and not just aesthetic trolling 😄 

     

    Just found this list

    Ryu to Akuma: "We're not done just yet. There is much I must ask you about."

     

    As much as Ryu may enjoy clashing with Akuma, you can tell he's genuinely interested in Akuma's insight.  

    I wonder if Ryu is referring to their SFV story dialogue

    • Akuma: "My fist, is there no one in this world who can equal its power? Foolish boy, why are you smiling?"
    • Ryu: "Because now... I can ask you a question."
    • Akuma: "..."
    • Ryu: "To know yourself, one must ask questions. Questioning others, themselves, or even gods. It's no different than seeking strength."
    • Akuma: "..."
    • Ryu: "As a human, I'll keep asking questions, through my fist!"
    • Akuma: "Humph! Pathetic!"
    • Ryu: "Answer me this, Akuma."
    • Akuma: "What is your question, boy?"
    • Ryu: "My fist ask yours. Only yours can respond. That's how it'll always be."
    • Akuma: "..."
    • Ryu: "Our conversation won't end because... The answer lies... In the heart of battle."
    • Akuma: "... Ha. Very well. If that's true, our paths will cross again someday. I shall meet you at your journey's end, Ryu!"

     

    or if there will be something story wise where Ryu actually have to make real questions to him lol

  10. Kinda OT at this point, but

    @CESTUS IIII always thought Laura should have had a Critical Art that looked similar to this in SFV.

    200w.gif?cid=6c09b952xca083xzq1ggc0d6bpm

    Yeah, much better example than El Gado's*, totally forgot about that U2 👍

    Give Laura a shit like that for Lv3, then CA version add an huge electric shock each time she breaks something

     

    *El Gado one was this, possibly even inspired Cammy's one to some extent (even if for sure they wanted give her some SF2tAM vibes 😄 )

  12. Btw tutorial vid should be not too far, guess we will see his CA there

     

    Speaking again of supers/CA that's something SF6 truly shine at, my top10 i would love to see from some kinda possible candidates

    Spoiler

    FEI LONG - They already went very "cinema theme" with Jamie's, whatever they do with Fei will go three times harder... add short nunchaku combo for the CA verison lol

    URIEN - SFV feels first time dude got hype super, was cool but so minimal... can finish same way but him starting with cool brutal combo showing his sadistic side

    LAURA - BJJ* had so much potential, SFV did nothing with it. Give me Lv3 where breaks on succession limbs (think El Gado FFR super), CA version add electric shocks

    R.MIKA - OMG whatever they do it's going to be CRAZY, expect one of most hype of the game, it's going to be a show for sure

    MAKOTO- At Lv3 each strike is going to bring huge ouch, i'm going to love it lol

    CODY- Dude deserve a Super worth of his hype status, years after i'm still waiting

    HUGO- Gigas Breaker done SF6 style would be fucking epic

    MENAT- CA goes full Caesar Zeppeli show

    KOLIN- would love to see how her ice powers would look in SF6, sure they would make it beautiful super

    This sounds good! I'm probably one of the few people who was kinda underwhelmed by his lvl 3 Super. The punch to the face without the large pillars of sky-soaring energy, we're used to seeing from Akuma doesn't feel fleshed out enough.

    Yeah but after having seen it was kinda predictable they were going minimalist on Lv3 just to save fireworks to hype up CA version 😄 

     

    But even disliking Akuma, i have to admit i found basic Lv3 to be a touch of class, was'nt flashy but really sold the idea he's not an ordinary char... so him just charging a bit the fist to throw a serious punch made it worthy of rest of the cast Lv3 attacks

    Like also the idea on CA opponent blocking the punch, it's like the char showing to not be an ordinary opponent either (to be CA Akuma must be at 25% life or less) wich make him switch to the real shit

     

    If they ever add Oro hope they will pick similar route with Lv3 being one-arm thing and CA being a variation that have him using both arms

    Akuma's CA version of his Lv3 - No video, but taken from someone who has played Akuma 20 matches at the Japan Battle Hub

    wait I read your question wrong.

    He does have a regular CA from his Super, the animation goes like this

    Sorry I dont know how to make a spoiler prompt for the people that don't want to read this.

    He will do the Regular Thing and once you're one the ground and he tries to punch you, your character blocks, he then opens his hand and does a point blank Hadoken Charge on your face that goes boom and looks a lot like his 3rd strike super.

    Its quite brutal and it looks pretty sick
