    Some interesting notes about A.K.I.' s moves, with few lost in translations details. Sources:
    English
    Japanese

    Serpent Lash is 蛇頭鞭 Jatōben "Snake head lash". But Snakehead (Simplified Chinese 蛇头 shétóu) is also the name of a Chinese criminal organisation involved with human smuggling. Nice sn(e)aky reference to the criminal underworld where F.A.N.G came from and in which still is wallowing.
    Toxic Blossom is 毒破裂 Dokuharetsu "poison explosion".
    Nightshade Pulse is 紫煙砲 Shienhō "purple smoke cannon". 紫煙 Shien can also mean "tobacco smoke" or, in Chinese only, "mountain haze" or "auspicious cloud". It certainly is NOT the latter, though...
    Nightshade Chaser is 紫煙追 Shientsui "purple smoke chase".
    Orchid Spring is 紫泡泉 Shihōsen "purple foam spring".
    Cruel Fate is 凶襲突 Kyōshūtotsu "evil assault stab".
    Snake Step is 蛇軽功 Jakeikō "snake qīnggōng". Qīnggōng (Simplified Chinese 轻功, Traditional 輕功, both different from the Japanese standard but it's the same character) "lightness skill" is the method to train for jumping off vertical surfaces taught in Chinese MA and theater. Basically the double jump and wall running training, and the relative skill.
    Sinister Slide is 悪鬼蛇行 Akkidakō "evil demon crawling", where "crawling" (蛇行 dakō) is literally "snake walking".
    Venomous Fang is 猛毒牙 Mōdokuga "deadly poison fang".
    Heel Strike is 蛇連咬 Jarenkō "snake repeated bites".
    Entrapment is 雁字搦 Ganjigarame "bound hand and foot", where 雁 gan is the wild goose, 字 ji "character" and 搦 garame is "entwine" (腕搦み udegarami "arm entwining" is the generic name of the bent armlock submission in Jūdō and Jūjutsu which in catch wrestling is known as double wristlock and in MMA and BJJ is known as "Kimura"... because Masahiko Kimura beat Hélio Gracie with an udegarami in 1951). The etymological explanation is that if you bound a person with a rope in the form of a skein of geese, which resembles an alphabet letter (usually they form a V-shape in the sky), that person cannot move anymore.
    L1 Super Deadly Implication is 死屍累々 Shishiruirui "heaps of corpses everywhere", an expression also used figuratively when something goes very wrong and there are serious consequences for numerous people involved. Here... no, it's used literally lol.
    L2 Super Tainted Talons is 紫煙裂爪 Shienressō, "purple smoke tearing talons"
    L3 Claws of Ya Zi is 睚眦 Gaishi, Chinese Yázì. Yázì is the second of the nine sons of the dragon. Except the first one (囚牛 Qiúniú, a full dragon), they're all hybrids of a dragon with another animal and are often used as decorations on various objects, according to their respective inclinations. Yázì has a dhole's head and is the more violent of all the nine sons of the dragon, as he likes to kill and slaughter. Being directly linked to fighting, Yázì is often featured on the crossguards of Chinese swords. Also, because the single characters of his name mean respectively 睚 "glare" and 眦 "corner of the eye", gaishi is also used to mean "death glare", because if he's angry with you you're screwed the moment he glares at you.

    Daaaaaaaaaaaaaamn
     
     
    I'm sorry Fangbros but Aki blows that character out of the water imo. As far as evil poison assassins are concerned. Everything about this character is deliciously deranged. 
     
    She literally slithers on the ground like a snake and coils around your body... I feel like she's gonna be a tricky character to pilot because if it weren't for Marisa I'd honestly want to main a character like her

    Some other things I noticed about AKI
     

     
    We already know that this is the girl  known as “Phantom” from the side story featured for FANG in SF5. This is referenced in the kanji characters in this artwork (阿鬼-Ghost this is pronounced A-ki)
     
    Her motif being based on a snake was also explained in the side story. The serpent dagger was  the gift that FANG offered her. 

     
    AKI’s chained spiked tendrils are something that was intended for FANG according to his concept art.

    She’s very much like Juri. Both have similar color schemes (Black, Purple, White). They both have a sadistic personality in wanting to torture their opponents in their own way. Her voice is similar to Juri’s too having a hint of playful sultry and conniving bitch. 

    When you look at both Juri and Aki you automatically see they’re based on precursor Chun Li when she was supposed to be Gen’s granddaughter and student assassin. Aki adopted this old concept into her story now with Fang filling the role of Gen as her master. 
     
    Juri and Aki are both evil counterparts to Chun in design and personality.

    They REALLY aren't.  They're both sadistic, cackling, predatory.  They're both the exact same kind of girl Joker.
     
    They even have similar mannerisms like lip licking and unnecessary body contortions, like the deep backbend.
    The cutscenes they've shown are obviously from WTM.  And they take place in the China stage, which has been in the game since launch, but didn't appear in WTM.

    Just wish they didnt make her such a Juri 2.0 though
     
    When I read Phantom's story she didnt strike me as such.

    I think i've come to the conclusion that I dont like SF6. None of the characters do it for me either

    Sorry to heart that. I was planning on maining Manon but something about Lily spoke to me and I think she was actually the right choice to begin the game with. Once I got my bearing and hit Plat I finally started to like 6. I hope you find a character even if it might take a few years.
     
    Throw loops off regular throws are gay as fuck. I don't know why they brought that shit back when SFV yes, SFV fixed this issue. Everyone hated it in 5 and defense in 6 is fucking aids.

    1/2 for me. I actually do like sf6  I like it's mechanics, combo potential, etc. what I do not like is that none of the characters are clicking with me, ryus too basic AGAIN. Half the roster are store characters so to me they feel like your fighting your opponent AND fighting time to load your stuff.
