Cyber Akuma is one of the most OP characters ever made in the crossover series. It’s crazy that he’s downright broken. I mean what to expect that Apocalypse turned him into his fellow horseman.
The thing that made him so punishing was the speed of his teleport which had virtually zero lag into crouching light kick from which he would proceed to pummel you into oblivion with is hugely damaging combos and supers. The other trick was the follow up rock after an hadoken which catch you out if you was trying to doing anything other than be defensive. Once you pick up on these patterns he is a bit easier, still one of the beat bosses of all time though.
I remember I caught one of my friends with the air raging demon. I never told anyone it was possible just executed it one day. After practicing which combo sequences would help you catch someone off guard.
Great vid as always, Top Hat! The gauntlet and wing shape makes me believe the designer of Cyber Akuma was also a Mazinger or Shogun Warrior Mazinga fan. If you uncover anything about this, please include it in a future episode. Cheers!
What really scary about cyber akuma is that he's just like shin akuma, but with high defense.. and you put rocket punch, massive fireball into the mix, plus that 7hit goushoryu, he's straight up nightmare, oh did i mention his terrifying speed?😅
AaaAAACkchtuyalllehhhh its prounooooonced A-koom-ah .... great work again Top Hat. Your work on the street fighter series is seriously one of the most comprehensive out there. Sometimes I learn things, sometimes you reinforce things I thought I knew, and other times I just enjoy your musings. Keep up the great work. I love street fighter and I've been reading up on Gill, the secret society, his ties to jesus, Oro, the nerfing of Sean, and blah blah. I'm just a huge street fighter fan, previous top 3000 in all north america. I.... just love some street fighter bruv
The most OP characters in all of Capcom's fighting games: Everyone from X-Men Children Of The Atom, Marvel Superheroes and X-Men vs Street Fighter. The infinite combos in those games are super duper easy to do, you have like a 10% chance to drop it lol
I learned to beat the tar our of cyber Akuma as Wolverine. I would jump over his attacks and drill claw into him. I'd be all over him, and then tag into whomever I wanted to see the ending as. That was how I saw all the endings back in the Arcades.
Cyber when I faced him is overwhelming. His speed, power and the ability to completely dominate. Thank goodness I beat him on my very first attempt at the arcades. I remember wiping out my Ken using a Raging Demon and I thought I lost when he hits me with a Metsatsu Gouhado Ken leaving me with a pixel of health with my Ryu. Somehow I managed to turn the fight around and a blast him with the Shinku Hado Ken and I was happy and relieved with sweat on my hands while trembling. Damn, it was a tough boss to beat.
But what you might not know, is that Cyber-Akuma is *also* a MegaMan 8 easter egg, in that his Cybernetic Arm/Wings originate from the wreckage of Duo!
Cyber Akuma is a housemen of the apocalypse meaning he is enhanced with celestrial technology ( the cosmic entity architects if the main marvel universe)
to Top Hat Gaming Man= WHEN are you going to feature SNK's most acerribally dangerous sociopath of them all: Ryuji Yamazaki, on this "Fighting Game Characters' History" section of yours! you cannot tell me I'm the only person on TH-cam- let alone long-time subscriber of yours- to have made this request!
Psycho bison was tricky but much easier imo. Similarly both force you to turtle and punish on the counter. I think I made more trouble with CA but that could be that my skills weren't as developed at that time.
It’s a shame to see what capcom has done to the street fighter ip, looking/hearing gummy fighter 6, it’s atrocious. I think I know why they don’t ever re-release the vs games, they want you to forget how amazing capcom vs snk’s and the X-men/msh/marvel vs street fighters were in music and gfx. Gummy fighter 6 has such terrible music it makes current era wwe entrance themes almost palatable *almost*
I mean, he was dope, but not that hard to beat. My regular team was Wolverine and Akuma. I'd use Wolverine and Norimaro just for shits and giggles, and still would beat him.
NGL when the 1st time i unlocked Cyber Akuma, after 2 matches i shut down my PC then i head to the outside 🏞️. It is Not because i hate the character or something like that, after all he's my favorite SF character of all time. Too tell you simple truth is that, He's Soo Stupidly Over Powerful That Playing With Him The Whole Game Feels Like Meaningless 😐. Because he's that powerful 💪🤯💥

2:58 7 Hit Combo Shoryuken 🔥🔥🔥

2:32 those big fireballs 🔥🔥🔥
It's not just terrifying but will test your skill as a player. I was lucky to beat him many times but holy shit, it was insane.
One of the most epic bosses of all time. His theme song absolutely SLAPS!!!
Really hated fighting that guy
Cyber Akuma es uno de los boss más duro que se han hecho!
AaaAAACkchtuyalllehhhh its prounooooonced A-koom-ah

Cyber Akuma is ridiculous. He's not toned down

Depth and complexity. Apocalypse: Hi you wanna be strong? Akuma: Yeah sure.
His body has the mazinger wings 🔥🔥🔥
Yes! Glad to see someone else notice that! Wonder if the designer was a Mazinger fan?
2:32 look at those big fireballs
Man Cyber Akuma's MSHvSF theme is so iconic and nostalgic!
2:07 Cyber Akuma spamming double air fireballs
3:28 Air Raging Demon 🔥🔥🔥

Shining Gou Shock. Cyber Akuma was crazy broken. He was all over you from bell to bell. Who asked for a mechanized Shin Akuma. Loved the bastard.
Robot Chicken Akuma
Cyber Akuma was pretty awesome for a final boss in mvs.
Cyber when I faced him is overwhelming. His speed, power and the ability to completely dominate. Thank goodness I beat him on my very first attempt at the arcades.

It's a Shame that he only appeared in one game.
@gnome from pinkerton true, but a skin/costume is not a character, and like you said, It doesn't count.
im still having flashbacks of cyber akuma. hes too powerful
You need to do a video on Garuda. The most OP playable character of any SF game.
Agree woth you on this. Garuda is so OP on SFEX games.
Shame he was toned down on EX Layer game
@@Eyes-Scream0213I liked using Garuda in sf ex 1 and 2.
This video unlocked core memory for me.
Cyber Akuma is in Omega Street Fighter 4. As a costume if I remember correctly.
4:30 the screen says otherwise. Cyber Akuma defeats Apocalypse
But what you might not know, is that Cyber-Akuma is *also* a MegaMan 8 easter egg, in that his Cybernetic Arm/Wings originate from the wreckage of Duo!
Cyber Akuma is a housemen of the apocalypse meaning he is enhanced with celestrial technology ( the cosmic entity architects if the main marvel universe)
Horseman*
Them rockets is what makes him terrifying
One nice thing about sucking at fighting games is that I never have to face characters like Cyber Akuma.

I want a Fanart of Cyber Akuma under the SFV & 6 Redeisgn.
Cyber Akuma is NOTHING compared to Cyber DAN!!! When I saw him at the end of Cyber Akuma’s playthrough I prayed Cyber Dan would be playable
He gave me so much grief as a kid!!
He may be the most terrifying street fighter boss, but Shin Akuma from Capcom Vs SNK would body him
Cyber Oni, the end of Street Fighter.
Orochi
@@MrDumdumkilla Iori?
I'm not all clued up on the King of Fighter history
You mean Gameplay wise or Power Scaling wise?
Big daddy akuma yes
Spoiler: Cyber Akuma is Dan.
Lol that pic of cyber Dan lol
seeing cyber akuma was awesome
If they made him again in a new MvC game he would most likely be renamed/made to Death-Deed Akuma or Housemen of Death Akuma
Horseman*
Hell yeah dawwg! Top hat you gonna play SFVI? Make a video about what you think about that shit!
Actually Cyber Akuma also made an appearance in Cyberbots
That's ZERO AKUMA (a.k.a. Zero Gouki)
Alpha 3 Final Bison remains as the ultimate Street Fighter boss fight.
that nigh invincible Psycho Crusher had my brain working overtime on how to defeat such a move
Psycho bison was tricky but much easier imo. Similarly both force you to turtle and punish on the counter. I think I made more trouble with CA but that could be that my skills weren't as developed at that time.
En Sabah Nur wanting to make Alums his new War ?
Debate this:
Cyber Akuma vs Shin Akuma
@gnome from pinkerton didn't know that, thx for the info 👍
Sickest OP boss ever imo but hovering off screen in the corner was just plain cheap!😤
It’s a shame to see what capcom has done to the street fighter ip, looking/hearing gummy fighter 6, it’s atrocious.

I think metsu is pronounced "Mets" like the baseball team lol
I always hoped for a cyber ken 😅like 2010
Yeeeeaah
Yeeeaaahhhh! [Sorry - can't help it!]
I mean, he was dope, but not that hard to beat. My regular team was Wolverine and Akuma. I'd use Wolverine and Norimaro just for shits and giggles, and still would beat him.
So Apocalypse Cybered Akuma. 😕
Apocalypse cyberes anyone he puts his hands on
I used to fight him 1 v 1 with Spider-Man
Did he just shun goku satsu in the air? Tf
When u had 2 fighters unlike in the ps1 version he's not bad at all.
Man I only played the PS1 version I never knew you was supposed to have two fighters lol😊
Oni is a million times more worse than this character
I can beat it using blackheart character and zangief mech in very hard mode.
M. Zangiff is a secret assist in mvc
🤔 Yeah is OP but he's a glass Cannon character
I hate this boss so much bruh
NGL when the 1st time i unlocked Cyber Akuma, after 2 matches i shut down my PC then i head to the outside 🏞️.
It is Not because i hate the character or something like that, after all he's my favorite SF character of all time.
Too tell you simple truth is that, He's Soo Stupidly Over Powerful That Playing With Him The Whole Game Feels Like Meaningless 😐.
Because he's that powerful 💪🤯💥
