Holy shiiiiiiiiiiiit, I saw the videos of her and she looks DOPE as hell. She looks like she'll be SSS tier, man, I love how she looks like she plays. Awesooooome.

grandlordzero · « **Reply #1 on:** May 26, 2009, 12:30:13 AM »

Not to mention the fapping material this will spawn.

WHERE'S OUR SEIFUKU AKIHA DOUJIN?

Honestly though, I don't see why TM needed to give 3 whole grooves worth of movesets to an alternate costume. She's fapable enough in the short skirt without the different moves. Specially when the movesets could have been tweaked a bit and given to a completely new character, like SHIKI Tohno. (the crazy blood manipulator, not Banana Shiki.)

Oh well. *raises anti-flame shield*

Van_Artic · « **Reply #2 on:** May 26, 2009, 01:21:13 AM »

those BnB's do a lot of damage, she'll probably be mid-high tier
and she's more fappable than akiha-v.akiha

Jen · « **Reply #3 on:** May 26, 2009, 01:34:52 AM »

I think they might be able to tell Akiha has more fans than siscon Shiki.

Anyways, why don't we proceed to analyze 50 seconds of footage?

As everyone has noted: wtf 5k meterless (and it doesn't even look that difficult). May be rebalanced before the game releases, or Ryougi just has crap defense.
Sexy Full Moon claws. Seems like they're a tad slower than Akiha's trademark low kick, but it also seems to have a larger vertical hitbox.
Flare rings, for lack of a better term. Normal versions seem like zoning/oki moves (maybe even anti-air?), with slow startup but long lasting time. EX version seems to be a combo chainer. The damage isn't bad either, she pulls off a 4.3k invalid on Len...
FSAkiha seems to have the H/FAkiha j.C downward claws., and also the classic 4c.
Since all of CSAkiha's normals seem to be kicks, and FSAkiha's normals seem to be claws, will HSAkiha be a mix of the two?
Arial backdash looks kind of fail.
CSAkiha gets flametongues with hueg hitbox. Range looks to be about CAkiha Ex 236.
CSAkiha might have two flametongue specials, seeing as the ex she uses hits high while the normal ones she uses hit in front. Could be the same move though.

LoliSauce · « **Reply #4 on:** May 26, 2009, 01:42:21 AM »

The flametongue that hit high, you mean the one that looked like Akiha/vAkiha's AD at far range? That shit definitely looks like an AA special.

Overall it seems like she loses some setups (pits and whatnot) and gains some zoning with her massive range specials? I dunno, but I love her airthrow. lol

I really hope her ridiculously ezmodo bnb gets toned down though, seriously. 5k is dumb for a midscreen bnb with such little effort, even with low defense.

Jen · « **Reply #5 on:** May 26, 2009, 01:47:45 AM »

Well, we haven't seen anything that looks like a 22 yet... she could still have some setups.

*worships repeatedly his new goddess*

I think I'm gonna have a new main come the PC version of this.

Jen · « **Reply #7 on:** May 26, 2009, 02:28:39 AM »

I'm going to have to learn how to use a pad AND a new main unless someone helps me figure out how to get a keyboard to input into PS2 MBAA.

And to assist in the worship of our goddess here's an image off of Gelbooru:

Alfonse · « **Reply #8 on:** May 26, 2009, 03:19:48 AM »

You will learn how to use a pad/stick to play MBAA PS2, for S-Akiha's sake.

LivingShadow · « **Reply #9 on:** May 26, 2009, 03:35:53 AM »

I'm looking forward to the new Akiha. Anti-air Origami ring (or whatever that's called) looks like an interesting move to work in to combos and zoning. It reminds me of Warc's bloodrings except stationary and maybe a smaller hitbox.

This is because the jB (?) afterwards was too late I think, if she did a launcher before it would be valid, I suppose. I can be mistaken, but the invalid only appeared after the jB and not the 5A.

modelcitizen · « **Reply #11 on:** May 26, 2009, 11:44:49 AM »

So positive so far.

She looks like a rushdown character, huh?

LoliSauce · « **Reply #12 on:** May 26, 2009, 12:55:13 PM »

I dunno, Ryougi looks more rushdown than sAkiha to me.

Sh1k1 · « **Reply #13 on:** May 26, 2009, 03:15:56 PM »

I demand we officially baptize her with the new name Akiha-tan.

modelcitizen · « **Reply #14 on:** May 26, 2009, 04:00:43 PM »

Akiha-tan? I've been using Fukukiha, hmmm.

abitofBaileys · « **Reply #15 on:** May 26, 2009, 04:35:28 PM »

Leg Akiha.

okuhoshi · « **Reply #16 on:** May 26, 2009, 06:16:04 PM »

^ This.

LoliSauce · « **Reply #18 on:** May 27, 2009, 11:13:00 PM »

lol, I'm gonna call her Azaka too.

Lord Knight · « **Reply #19 on:** May 28, 2009, 10:11:57 PM »

No one thought that Ryougi might have shitty def?

Actually, it was in fact brought up, 4th post:

May be rebalanced before the game releases, or Ryougi just has crap defense.

Even with shit defense, that's still ridiculous, imo.

Her throw at the end of her BnB solely does 600 dmg. What?

They have give or take three months to balance it. Chill.

And even if they manage to dick THAT up, there's always the PC version which will inevitably come out 1-2 years later for those who still care enough about balance. So don't worry about damage ratio's too much. Absolute worst case scenario, we have a character that reaches the MBAC Ciel level. We've dealt with HER all this time and lived, Azaka can't possibly be as bad.
