Additional fun fact: he also voiced Dr Tenma in the monster dub. The fact he has the range to go from being a gentle doctor obsessed with a blond boy to being an absolute menace is so absolutely impressive to me
The voice actor for Asura was spitting blood after certain sessions because of how dedicated he was to conveying the anger of the character. Massive props.
This game has one of the most unique art designs I've ever experienced. So much inspiration from Hinduism and Buddhist mythology and belief while blending in good Japanese Shonen design with a hint of sci-fi, without ever leaning too far into any aspect. If Asura's Wrath leaves no other legacy, then at the very least I wish more games at least emulate this games aesthetic. My favorite art design ever. (As a side note, I actually bought Naraka Bladepoint solely because it shares the same Eastern Hindi inspiration which just led to a similar art design. So I guess my wish is solely manifesting. One can dream...)
That's a great point, I'm glad someone said it. I love this art style and the feeling I get from seeing the sometimes beautiful, sometimes horrific characters. Black Myth Wukong is a game still in development, but every scene and character in the trailers so far capture that aesthetic. If you haven't seen it, check it out, I'm very excited for it.
Speaking of Naraka, there's a limited skin rn for the monk that has a similar body type to Asura that you can buy. There's also nunchucks skin from the game too
True. It's an amazing game. The gameplay was a bit repetitive at times, like having to fight that giant elephant gohma; That fight dragged on a bit. But other than that, it was a beautiful game.
Kinda reminds me of my uncle Jimbo constipate Cook who used to sell fried spicy baby alligator to kids in his underwear and a gas mask behind a private elementary school.

Holy shit! A forgotten treasure. I remember playing this in 2007-2008 and being shocked this game wasn’t huge. Punching out a man the size of Earth within the first 20 minutes really sells you on this game lol
The influences of Hinduism and Buddhism are strong with this game, so much so that yes they ALL get reborn in the next life, at the end there is a series of images that show all the characters living in modern times, so you get an even happier ending knowing that Asura gets to live a happy life with his wife Durga and daughter Mithra like a real family, even uncle Yasha is there.
There was a period between 2007-2016 where so many epic single player games like this came out and delivered nothin but epic phenomenal cutscenes, characters and gameplay. (Metal Gear Rising, DMC, Bayonetta, Vanquish, Dante's Inferno, Lollipop Chainsaw, Darksiders, Prototype) We haven't seen much of that since Another game I hope gets more traction is "Bulletstorm" that game was fucking amazing
Kinda reminds me of my uncle Jimbo constipate Cook who used to sell fried spicy baby alligator to kids in his underwear and a gas mask behind a private elementary school.
It's a shame this game never got finished. I watched someone play this years ago and it was a really good game and playthrough. (There was supposed to be 4 story DLC or something that concluded the story and only 2 got released and the last 2 never came out due to the game not making enough money)
Episodes 11.5 and 15.5 fucking amazing anime episodes. Asura takes on a whole content of those creatures and just obliterates them. I'm shaking while typing this. It's amazing.
@@TapiocaMCZ There were? I haven't seen the game in years, so I couldn't remember. I heard stories about the crunch time or something relating to the DLC's never being finished. Maybe it was something else then.

Asura's Wrath is easily top 10 best story-focused games of all time. From a story-telling perspective, it's so good that I'd even argue it's better than a lot of the Telltale games and those were amazing.
Kinda reminds me of my uncle Jimbo constipate Cook who used to sell fried spicy baby alligator to kids in his underwear and a gas mask behind a private elementary school.
Asura's Wrath was an essential game to my childhood. I fell in love with it when I discovered the demo on the 360. This game deserves all the love it gets. The only downfall I see is the amount of QTE's and the true ending being locked behind DLC. Liam O' Brien nailed the dub while even injuring himself for the berzerker transformation. This game truly is a masterpiece.
Kinda reminds me of my uncle Jimbo constipate Cook who used to sell fried spicy baby alligator to kids in his underwear and a gas mask behind a private elementary school.
iirc you could do it without buying the dlc if you just finished the game with all A's and S', but you do have to buy the in-between chapters like 11.5 and whatnot
YES FINALLY! Asura's Wrath deserves SO much more exposure! Hope other big content creators will play and upload it too. My favorite game of all time. Still trying to get the second volume of the manga in japanese (Found the first volume)
@@cuakelpatodective2617 It is called Asuras Wrath Kai and only has 2 volumes that were only released in japanese and italian. Got the first volume in japanese and still trying to get the second one. Found it some time ago but got lost in delivery, so i had to get refunded sadly
I feel like if Asura's Wrath just had better gameplay it would have gone down as one of the classics of its generation. The story, music, art direction are all top tier as hell though.
Kinda reminds me of my uncle Jimbo constipate Cook who used to sell fried spicy baby alligator to kids in his underwear and a gas mask behind a private elementary school.
I just resign to accepting it being an interactive anime. It literally is anyway, with an opening credit and 'to be continued' cut off between every chapter making them feel like episodes, heck each chapter even is around 20 minutes-ish in length like a typical episode, and there's even a 'fan service episode' chapter. It feels a different kind of special from a typical game like that, instead being like a sort of 'interactive tv series'.
Asura's Wrath is one of my all time favorite games, I keep coming back to it even if the gameplay is not the greatest the story and characters are great enough to keep me interested all the way through.
Kinda reminds me of my uncle Jimbo constipate Cook who used to sell fried spicy baby alligator to kids in his underwear and a gas mask behind a private elementary school.
Can't stress enough how bad of a plan betraying Asura was.. Especially after watching him one punch KO Vlitra. I like the scene when the seven deity's are talking about Wyzen's death and generally freaking about Asura's return, when Deus comes in and shuts them down saying something like "Asura is no concern to me" You can tell the others are starting to think maybe Deus pride is turning into a big problem and obviously underestimating Asura is a terrible idea. I like to think Wyzen's last words were going to be something to the effect of "We shouldn't have cut Asura out of the deal!"
Im happy to see Asura getting so much love. iirc the creator has said hes always up to creating another asuras wrath game but its the publisher that wants otherwise.
I wish games were portrayed in a similar fashion, just the atmosphere, the level of design and structure and don’t even get me started on the phenomenon of the soundtrack. This game had me speechless, I’m really anticipating a remastered for this game or even just a sequel because the explosive fighting, the action, it was like watching an animated show and that augus fight was just perfection.
Asura..the man who went as far as killing a god just because he made his daughter cry. This game and it's story will be always a memory that I'll treasure.
@@OverlordKog Well, Chakravartin did call Asura the "perfect being", maybe he meant that more literally than we think, as in, more perfect (and thus, stronger) than even himself, something that he *NEEDED* to keep under control else it could risk his very existence (which Asura did).
Damn, I remember seeing a video where final fight with the god was accompanied by metal gear rising music. Now I can see how much music impacts the overall experience, I watched final fight from this video and mgr music really brought it on the next level
Kinda reminds me of my uncle Jimbo constipate Cook who used to sell fried spicy baby alligator to kids in his underwear and a gas mask behind a private elementary school.
The cinematography of this game is amazing. It felt like a huge cutscenes tho. And the actual gameplay when you have feet on the ground isn't that great. But goddamn this is the one time I sat back and enjoyed a movie/video game. The music is crazy
Kinda reminds me of my uncle Jimbo constipate Cook who used to sell fried spicy baby alligator to kids in his underwear and a gas mask behind a private elementary school.
It could be pretty awesome if they make the combat of the Game like Bayonetta or devil may cry but probably Capcom will not do nothing with the character because his last appareance was like evil Ryu skin

I remember picking up this game in a whim and being ENTRANCED until the very end. Under appreciated game. Everything about it is just fantastic. I literally shouted FINALLY SOMEONE GETS IT when this popped up on my feed.
So, for those that love this game but complain that the True End was locked in DLC, please just remember that was nit the original intention and the company was basically forced to due to budget and time frame reasons. They wanted the True End to be base game but couldn't quite get it.
Kinda reminds me of my uncle Jimbo constipate Cook who used to sell fried spicy baby alligator to kids in his underwear and a gas mask behind a private elementary school.
I remember getting this a couple months after it launched and hadnt heard much about it, man was i impressed with the story and the cinematics. The game design is amazing
It’s a shame no one in the video game industry knows what a good game is anymore they threw this game in the trash even though it is one of the best games someone can play. Truly needs a remastered version
"Asura's Wrath is a masterpiece." It's literally that meme about DLC where they cut out the Mona Lisa's face and charge you extra to see it. You had to buy the game's ending separately.
I don’t think plans to finish the story in the next one in the series is necessarily bad. It’s a shame that it fell through but they completed it all the same and it still doesn’t detract from the value of it.
@Bendilin It was originally gonna be a different game but capcom didnt like the sales of the game so they shut it down.Therefore the devs concluded the game with this DLC
Wow what a masterpiece we need a remastered version the visuals and the story is just beautiful I can't imagine how much better it'd look with not 360p
I'm glad he finally played this for the channel (ever since he mentioned liking Ninja Blade, I wanted to see him playing Asura's Wrath). I had no idea he had already played it in his own time, though.
Asura's Wrath was the first time I ever saw someone as big as Galactus be destroyed finger first, and it is beautiful, it truly is a masterpiece and definitely needs to be remastered.
It really is. One of my favorite games and I just recently discovered it. I’ve been gaming my entire life too. This game flew under the radar and deserves way more then it received.
I'm not sure if you could feel buildings at Wyzens final size, but the human finger is ludicrously sensitive, its been tested and shown that a person can feel the difference between two grains of sand, so it could be possible he can feel individual buildings under his fingers.
This game, I never played it, but about 2 years ago I watched a full cutscene movie and came to appreciate it for being one of the most over the top experiences ever created.
This game is a gem! Loved every second, the hype was so real in the QT events with the music and voice acting. Sitting on the edge of my seat the whole game
God I played this game when I was little and LOVED IT. It impulsed my love for worldbuilding and storytelling so much i still make little stories sometimes. However i hate that you have to buy a bs dlc to see the actual ending...
It's because the company didn't give CC2 enough funding to implement it into the base game within the release frame they had. They didn't want to put it behind a dlc, that's just the only way they were able to pull it off given circumstances.
I mean, this game is almost always on sale for like $5/$10, and the DLC is also in that price range, which isn't really that big a deal to complain about.
@@KarpetBurnfor kids that have no money to buy extra yes it is a big deal lol. I remember how destroyed I was when playing destiny on PS3 realizing at the end the actual game is the dlc and it cost like 30 dollars....deleted the game and still have the CD. Ya no games don't have the right to scam you from the actual game by making you pay more without telling you beforehand
Incredible experience. Fantastic voice acting, great pacing, and a story that just felt good to go through from start to finish. I get that some might not like it for being a "playable movie", but I feel like that went a big way to making all those raw moments of punching the bad guy in the face even more hype.

Holy shit! A forgotten treasure. I remember playing this in 2007-2008 and being shocked this game wasn’t huge. Punching out a man the size of Earth within the first 20 minutes really sells you on this game lol

woah its actually BERD and he loves Asura!!
Now I wonder what berd asura would look like
The influences of Hinduism and Buddhism are strong with this game, so much so that yes they ALL get reborn in the next life, at the end there is a series of images that show all the characters living in modern times, so you get an even happier ending knowing that Asura gets to live a happy life with his wife Durga and daughter Mithra like a real family, even uncle Yasha is there.
when he went 6-armed I was soo getting Vishnu vibes and its like a minute in. really cool
Yep
There was a period between 2007-2016 where so many epic single player games like this came out and delivered nothin but epic phenomenal cutscenes, characters and gameplay.
(Metal Gear Rising, DMC, Bayonetta, Vanquish, Dante's Inferno, Lollipop Chainsaw, Darksiders, Prototype)
We haven't seen much of that since
Another game I hope gets more traction is "Bulletstorm" that game was fucking amazing

It's a shame this game never got finished. I watched someone play this years ago and it was a really good game and playthrough. (There was supposed to be 4 story DLC or something that concluded the story and only 2 got released and the last 2 never came out due to the game not making enough money)
There were actually 3 story DLCs
The dlc we got ties things together neatly. But more Asura would be a dream.
Episodes 11.5 and 15.5 fucking amazing anime episodes. Asura takes on a whole content of those creatures and just obliterates them. I'm shaking while typing this. It's amazing.
@@TapiocaMCZ There were? I haven't seen the game in years, so I couldn't remember. I heard stories about the crunch time or something relating to the DLC's never being finished. Maybe it was something else then.
@@TheElectricRaichuThe game didn’t sell well enough is what happened. They had four dlc’s planned that would’ve lead to the next game
The actual ending to Asura’s Wrath, would’ve been the second game. Asura chasing Chakravartin to get Mithra back. It’s sad to hear that’s what happened though. If this game came out today, it would’ve sold incredibly well

"I will never forgive you....FOR MAKING MY DAUGHTER CRY!!!!" You have no soul if that moment doesnt make you tear up. Proud to say I still have my ps3 version.
one of the few games that makes it feel like pressing the bouton harder actually helps
I love how fast you see that asura is something completely different to the other former generals, 12000 years pass and they get new forms and power boosts and shit while asura sleeps the whole fucking time comes back and fucking destroys them with his bare hands then gets even more power and takes on god himself
Also i can just feel the dbz inspiration every second i play this game
No it’s just from pure rage, they cover this topic In the game. I think it was in episode 15.5 that it says.
@@blondethunder8912 I know that's why he is different hes clearly more angry than they are even before he gets betrayed
@@Ryza05 have you even played it?
@@blondethunder8912 yes I have, Augus and yasha are the only ones it say might be able to pull off the things asks a is capable of if they were in his place, I'm not saying he is different in that he is actually a different species or something to the others I was just saying he is different in how he acts and reacts to the things happening around him, he is more emotionally driven, the other deities won't show remorse or guilt aside from yasha who never believed in their ways fully from the murder of the emperor until it was their turn to face death, whereas asura is constantly fueled by emotion as you said with not a single soul consumed save for when he harnesses the power of the mantra reactor but by then he was already more powerful than the other gods with that beserker form
@@Ryza05 that’s just basic anger my man. And it wasn’t even directed at them so there I don’t get what you are trying to say here
Asura's Wrath is easily top 10 best story-focused games of all time. From a story-telling perspective, it's so good that I'd even argue it's better than a lot of the Telltale games and those were amazing.
This is literally my favorite game of all time. It provides me so much joy to see that Charlie is playing my favorite game
5 bot comments already? Goddamn, this is ridiculous.
We need a bot that cusses out other bots

Fun fact: Augus was actually blind
Really?
@@scannner7499I don't think so
This game needs a sequel... They flipped the whole story of gods but that was damn fun.
Asura's Wrath was an essential game to my childhood. I fell in love with it when I discovered the demo on the 360. This game deserves all the love it gets. The only downfall I see is the amount of QTE's and the true ending being locked behind DLC. Liam O' Brien nailed the dub while even injuring himself for the berzerker transformation. This game truly is a masterpiece.
Kinda reminds me of my uncle Jimbo constipate Cook who used to sell fried spicy baby alligator to kids in his underwear and a gas mask behind a private elementary school.
iirc you could do it without buying the dlc if you just finished the game with all A's and S', but you do have to buy the in-between chapters like 11.5 and whatnot
@@Gumbolaya. no, the 4th part is a dlc and is not included in the game.
YES FINALLY! Asura's Wrath deserves SO much more exposure! Hope other big content creators will play and upload it too. My favorite game of all time. Still trying to get the second volume of the manga in japanese (Found the first volume)
Wait asura wrath has a manga? Please pass link i love this world
@@cuakelpatodective2617 It is called Asuras Wrath Kai and only has 2 volumes that were only released in japanese and italian. Got the first volume in japanese and still trying to get the second one. Found it some time ago but got lost in delivery, so i had to get refunded sadly

The DLC Chapter 11.5 is a masterpiece of animation on its own
The “There is always some fool” speech is still one of my favourite monologues in media
I feel like if Asura's Wrath just had better gameplay it would have gone down as one of the classics of its generation.
The story, music, art direction are all top tier as hell though.
Kinda reminds me of my uncle Jimbo constipate Cook who used to sell fried spicy baby alligator to kids in his underwear and a gas mask behind a private elementary school.
I just resign to accepting it being an interactive anime. It literally is anyway, with an opening credit and 'to be continued' cut off between every chapter making them feel like episodes, heck each chapter even is around 20 minutes-ish in length like a typical episode, and there's even a 'fan service episode' chapter. It feels a different kind of special from a typical game like that, instead being like a sort of 'interactive tv series'.
Id argue it perfected QTEs, and did that in an era where QTEs were garbage that everyone hated
Asura's Wrath is one of my all time favorite games, I keep coming back to it even if the gameplay is not the greatest the story and characters are great enough to keep me interested all the way through.
Kinda reminds me of my uncle Jimbo constipate Cook who used to sell fried spicy baby alligator to kids in his underwear and a gas mask behind a private elementary school.
Can't stress enough how bad of a plan betraying Asura was..
Especially after watching him one punch KO Vlitra.
I like the scene when the seven deity's are talking about Wyzen's death and generally freaking about Asura's return, when Deus comes in and shuts them down saying something like "Asura is no concern to me"
You can tell the others are starting to think maybe Deus pride is turning into a big problem and obviously underestimating Asura is a terrible idea.
I like to think Wyzen's last words were going to be something to the effect of "We shouldn't have cut Asura out of the deal!"
Im happy to see Asura getting so much love. iirc the creator has said hes always up to creating another asuras wrath game but its the publisher that wants otherwise.
Asura’s Wrath is a masterpiece, but is even more of a masterpiece when Charlie plays it.

Glad Charlie didn't mistake Asura's wrath for a game
Damn this game needs more recognition, I remember playing this multiple times as a kid. It was really ahead of its time .
I wish games were portrayed in a similar fashion, just the atmosphere, the level of design and structure and don’t even get me started on the phenomenon of the soundtrack.
This game had me speechless, I’m really anticipating a remastered for this game or even just a sequel because the explosive fighting, the action, it was like watching an animated show and that augus fight was just perfection.
Asura..the man who went as far as killing a god just because he made his daughter cry.
This game and it's story will be always a memory that I'll treasure.
"the man?" nah he's already a god dude sorry.
Like, not even "a" god. In context of the story, Chakravartin is *the* God. Big G. Which makes Asura all that more impressive.
@@OverlordKog Well, Chakravartin did call Asura the "perfect being", maybe he meant that more literally than we think, as in, more perfect (and thus, stronger) than even himself, something that he *NEEDED* to keep under control else it could risk his very existence (which Asura did).
It's so hard to not see Guts's face in Asura
25:51 straight from the first broly movie
How did I miss this video???
Thank you for making it, I loved everything about Asura and it sometimes felt like a fever dream XD
Damn, I remember seeing a video where final fight with the god was accompanied by metal gear rising music. Now I can see how much music impacts the overall experience, I watched final fight from this video and mgr music really brought it on the next level

It kills me that the amazing soundtrack isn’t available on Spotify.
some songs are but yeah, none are listed officially under the game which sucks
Just started playing this game for the first time. Really loving it, very unique game.
Time to set the nukes
I miss playing this so much, such a fun game in high school. At least once a year I check if they're making a PC port.
The cinematography of this game is amazing. It felt like a huge cutscenes tho. And the actual gameplay when you have feet on the ground isn't that great. But goddamn this is the one time I sat back and enjoyed a movie/video game. The music is crazy

I remember picking up this game in a whim and being ENTRANCED until the very end. Under appreciated game. Everything about it is just fantastic. I literally shouted FINALLY SOMEONE GETS IT when this popped up on my feed.
So, for those that love this game but complain that the True End was locked in DLC, please just remember that was nit the original intention and the company was basically forced to due to budget and time frame reasons. They wanted the True End to be base game but couldn't quite get it.
I played the game earlier this year. I am still hoping for the day we see Asura in a Capcom vs game.

It’s a shame no one in the video game industry knows what a good game is anymore they threw this game in the trash even though it is one of the best games someone can play. Truly needs a remastered version
"Asura's Wrath is a masterpiece."
It's literally that meme about DLC where they cut out the Mona Lisa's face and charge you extra to see it. You had to buy the game's ending separately.
the dlc costs two dollars bro
@@lakuita5910 And?
I don’t think plans to finish the story in the next one in the series is necessarily bad. It’s a shame that it fell through but they completed it all the same and it still doesn’t detract from the value of it.
@Bendilin It was originally gonna be a different game but capcom didnt like the sales of the game so they shut it down.Therefore the devs concluded the game with this DLC
Just say u a hater bro
Asura would rip Kratos limb from limb, I don’t know how it’s even a competition.
Asuras Wrath looks like a game that deserves the God of War 2018 treatment
Wow what a masterpiece we need a remastered version the visuals and the story is just beautiful I can't imagine how much better it'd look with not 360p
Love to see modern videos on Asura's Wrath, it was a great game that I feel as if capcom forgot all about.
This needs a remaster so bad I would love to replay it
I'm glad he finally played this for the channel (ever since he mentioned liking Ninja Blade, I wanted to see him playing Asura's Wrath). I had no idea he had already played it in his own time, though.
Asura's Wrath was the first time I ever saw someone as big as Galactus be destroyed finger first, and it is beautiful, it truly is a masterpiece and definitely needs to be remastered.
It really is. One of my favorite games and I just recently discovered it. I’ve been gaming my entire life too. This game flew under the radar and deserves way more then it received.
Asura's Wrath is just so raw
I'm not sure if you could feel buildings at Wyzens final size, but the human finger is ludicrously sensitive, its been tested and shown that a person can feel the difference between two grains of sand, so it could be possible he can feel individual buildings under his fingers.
So satisfying to go "That sounds a lot like Liam O'Brien" for it to be confirmed by the credits, amazing VA
Gameplay -7/10
Story - 10/10
Cutscene and voice acting- 1000/10
Finally! Asura's Wrath is getting the recognition it deserves!
This game, I never played it, but about 2 years ago I watched a full cutscene movie and came to appreciate it for being one of the most over the top experiences ever created.
The cuts were a bit annoying at times but i really enjoyed that, never knew of Asura before this. Thanks man
This game is a gem! Loved every second, the hype was so real in the QT events with the music and voice acting. Sitting on the edge of my seat the whole game
God I played this game when I was little and LOVED IT. It impulsed my love for worldbuilding and storytelling so much i still make little stories sometimes.
However i hate that you have to buy a bs dlc to see the actual ending...
It's because the company didn't give CC2 enough funding to implement it into the base game within the release frame they had. They didn't want to put it behind a dlc, that's just the only way they were able to pull it off given circumstances.
I mean, this game is almost always on sale for like $5/$10, and the DLC is also in that price range, which isn't really that big a deal to complain about.
@@KarpetBurnfor kids that have no money to buy extra yes it is a big deal lol. I remember how destroyed I was when playing destiny on PS3 realizing at the end the actual game is the dlc and it cost like 30 dollars....deleted the game and still have the CD. Ya no games don't have the right to scam you from the actual game by making you pay more without telling you beforehand
Incredible experience.
Fantastic voice acting, great pacing, and a story that just felt good to go through from start to finish.
I get that some might not like it for being a "playable movie", but I feel like that went a big way to making all those raw moments of punching the bad guy in the face even more hype.
I love these long videos like this, cyberpunk and mgrr
The Voice actor for Asura, at the berserker scream he ripped something in his throat so while he was screaming his mouth was filling with blood
I loved this game so much!
The soundtrack was fantastic as well!
Symphony #9 was perfect for the Augus fight, and "in your belief" really moved me.

Honestly this game had such an amazing soundtrack too. Watching Asura absolutely lose his marbles when the girl died was unreal
