Evil Ryu and Oni Akuma have surfaced! Check it out! NSFW Jimmy!

Offcast has a ton of gameplay footage archived. Check it out. Absolutley amazing. Below is some information on the two fighters.

Oni Akuma

• People are comparing Oni more to Gouken than to Akuma. He looks slower and his sweep is different. Regular fireballs don't travel full screen, unless they're the EX version. Red (electric) Fireballs do travel full screen.

• Has a new teleport/air dash move by doing quarter-circle back + 3x Punches. Can be used to avoid anti air moves, among other things. Seems to have some recovery on it, though. Overall, seems to be a GREAT move.

• One of his attacks makes him leap into the air and come with a stomp/body attack, think E. Honda's Sumo Splash. There's an EX version of this.

• He has a Shoryuken (Dragon Punch) and Hurricane Kick. Shoryuken seems good at times, others, not so good.

• Health isn't known, some say it's low, some say it's average. May be because he's fighting Evil Ryu so much, who takes off a ton of life.

• Damage output is low.

• Some of his normal moves are fairly good, like Standing Hard Kick. His c.MP is pretty decent. Some of his normals are so-so.

• His 'Gouken Palm' special crosses up and it might be fireball invincible. It's unsafe on block, though.

• Demon Flip is a really good anti air from some ranges.

• Super is a Raging Demon.

• Ultra 2 looks like Akuma's Ground Pound Super Art (Kongou Kokuretsu Zan) from Third Strike if it whiffs or partially connects, but if goes into the full animation Oni jumps into the air and finishes with a huge Shoryuken with a lot of flashing stuff on screen.

• Can combo his Ultra 2 off his EX Slide Dash move.

• Can do air Ultra fireball... possibly for chip damage.

Evil Ryu

• Evil Ryu's most closely resembles Akuma in Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition. Many of their moves are very similar. A few examples: Far Standing Hard Punch is the same, Crouching Hard Kick (sweep) is slightly slower, Hurricane Kick can juggle into a Shoryuken and it doesn't break armor.

• Akuma's Fireball, Red Fireball, Shoryuken, Hurricane Kick, Dive Kick and Teleport all look to be pretty close to what Evil Ryu can do. It looks like many things Akuma can do, like cross up Hurricane Kicks and core combos, so can Evil Ryu.

• Has a new special move, appears to be quarter-circle forward + Hard Kick. This performs an Axe Kick with an exaggerated animation, the regular version does not hit overhead, but the EX version does. You can combo into the regular versions from a Crouching Medium Kick, but the EX version won't combo.

• He definitely has low health (stamina), probably some where around Akuma's, I'd guess 850. Two wrong guesses can lead to a dizzy from some characters.

• Can combo into his Ultra 2 with Crouching Medium Kick into EX Fireball FADC, Ultra 2. Full animation will land. Sick.

• Does a TON of damage. One combo into Hurricane Kick did about 35-40% on Chun-Li.

• Evil Ryu's Crouching Medium Kick is like the one in Third Strike, pretty good, but slower than Ryu's and you can't combo into it from Light Punch.

• You can combo into his Medium Punch off Light Punch, though, and his Crouching Medium Punch is really good. Thing has a lot of range and stuffs a lot of attackst. On bigger hitbox characters you can combo 3 Crouching Medium Punches into whatever you like. So far you can do it on Oni..

• His Super is a Raging Demon.

• Ultra 1 is a souped up Fireball. This mostly closely resembles normal Gouken's Ultra 2, as it appears that you can charge it up and then release it.

• Ultra 2 is a Metsu Go Shoryu uppercut which he hits you with three uppercuts: flies into the air and charges evil energy... and slams you're face into the ground with it.

• Toward + Medium Kick does a lunging Hop Kick, but it doesn't hit overhead.

• Hard Punch Shoryuken is a good anti air.

• Red Rapper offered this opinion on Evil Ryu: "It's all about risk reward. He [doesn't make] Ryu obsolete. Essentially, you're getting a different version of Ryu who does more Damage, but in return takes a LOT OF DAMAGE. His c.MK is better or worse in some ways, but he has some cool tools that could help out against normal Ryu's bad matchups. However — he's for sure not overpowered. No way."

He's not like Vanilla Sagat either. Vanilla Sagat you could guess wrong quite a few times and still pull out a victory with one ultra combo. Evil Ryu you guess wrong twice you're [screwed]."

Very cool character, though. Tons of fun to play and a nice vary up to normal Ryu's style."

HD Gameplay of Evil Ryu and Oni Akuma

Thanks to Gouki user ariscool24 for the link. Way to not be a Jimmy!

ryu's manly axe kick, is for the fucking win.

oni akumas ultras are visually for the win, the damage on one of them is just...pathetic though.

its great people are already putting up videos and making lil streams and shit for it.

ERyu definatly seems a lot more solid, more dmg. Oni's air dash should only be used to escape ultras and A2A's he might lose, in a lot of videos i see people trying to use it to be fancy...but it has tons of recovery and they just get punished. btw why dont people block Oni's crossup, its the same move u see coming from a mile away,lol.

yet to see a charged version of Oni's fireball, without charge the dmg is worse than goukens it seems, maybe its stun or unblockable on full charge? the world may never know.

definately NSFW.

ok I got a conspiracy theory! theirs one more character spot next to ryu, this could just be nothing or...another evil character. The other 2 serious ones are Violent Ken(snk) and Dark Sakura. Bringing back evil Sakura would be interesting, and SNK is in trouble and spoke of liscensing shit out to people. but that means "violent ken" woulda been in the plans waaaaay before the programmer tweets of SNKP problems. But they id speak of liscencing one of their kof sky stages, which ofcourse would be in another fighting game....also many people are like " OMG IT HAS TO BE ALEX OR ELENA OMG" nau, it wouldnt be beacause of 3 great reasons.
1.SF 3rd strike online has been in the works
2.sf x tekken is definaely bringing back a lot of old chars that have been ignore, mainly 3s people along with ST characters.
3.tekken x sf is even more going to have those esoteric characters.
But....rolento would seem beleivable, thousands of fans have been bitching about him forever, and Alex already got his spotlight in TvC where he was an amazing character....but he wasnt used much in high lvl play and didnt get so popular.
-end of iori's ridiculous theory-

@ariscool- hahahaha oh he would say that.

Hot damn! ... LMAOO! I love how the polls are evenly matched, for now.

That's cool. I would love to see the movies and how they came about. Other than that, I wonder how many people will jump on those two characters for their power and show.

also, a part of my conspiracy theory, all the costume packs have 5 characters.
yun, yang, oni and evil ryu = 4. theirs ONE spot open right next to ryu to make it complete. also its not total bs because yun and yang already have costumes, this seems pretty legit.

or im retarted

How long do you think we will be waiting until we can get our hands on them? I would assume they want them out in time for the tournament this summer and will use them to hype it up, but it just seems like a long ass wait for DLC when you consider how long the games been out already.
