Raoh vs Akuma

[Flowering Knight]

Since this is a pretty popular match up in certain circles and I want to know how both Fist of the North Star and Street Fighter are viewed nowadays

R1: Both in-character
R2: Bloodlusted

 

[Xhominid The Apex]

I think Akuma wins both rounds but that's me forgetting a bit of knowledge from FoTNS.

 

[Cubey]

Akuma wins but raoh is better

 

[Qinglong]

I don't think mindset actually changes anything for Akuma if you're not named Ryu

Raoh wins the MBS match

in an actual fight he gets packed though

 

[Aurelian]

Akuma has a counter to Musou Tensei?

 

[Blade]

akuma is country+ levels and at least sub-rel

raoh is island+ levels and mhs+

pmuch

akuma can super jump and nuke the whole area around him = bye bye raoh

 

[Uoruk]

Nah MS is like, the perfect counter to Akuma tbh
It practically makes shun golu satsu/raging demon useless and he'd have nothing else to actually hurt him with

 

[Astaro]

Memory on Fist of the North Star is hazy but I recall Kaioh being able to cancel out Kenshiro’s Musou Tensei through sheer power of his demonic aura. Can probably argue Akuma being able to do the same and as mentioned he’s definitely stronger and likely faster.

Best speed feat I recall reading FotNS was Hyoh being able to strike all 1,000+ pressure points basically instantly and Kenshiro easily stopping him

Nah, it was a technique called Anryu Tenha (which does use aura)which was exclusive to Hokuto Ryu Ken which Kenshiro had no idea was a thing till he got smacked by Kaioh the first time

Well there’s that then. Hokuto Shinken is way more haxed than anything Amina’s got

 

[Punchsplosion]

I mean, Houten Seikengeki might be able to deal with this technique. Akuma uses it to banish/bfr Kage, who is the disembodied essence of Ryu's evil intent given form in Street Fighter V. The problem is that we don't know the specifics of the move other than Akuma makes Kage peace out with it.

Maybe kaioh vs Akuma would’ve been a better match-up then?

Kaioh’s just a discount version of his brother Raoh anyway.

Kaioh’s just a discount version of his brother Raoh anyway.

Maybe in character, but not in power. First off he had the dark fist (can’t recall the exact name), second he needed original Hokuto to be defeated.

 

[Blade]

> akuma is country+ levels and sub-rel, you expect muso tensei to connect?

speed equal, raoh could get a w, cuz of it

 

[Gordo]

Akuma is way too powerful to lose here
