Akuma has two completely secret Super Moves that aren't found in the command list and are actually locked behind a secret taunt. Here's how to perform not only his two secret super moves, but also his classic double air fireball attack once powered up by the secret taunt.

    People are missing the point - its made intentionally like this to let online be fair but let players have fun if they mutually agree to it. Its the best thing they could do
  • @nio804
    So you're telling me that Akuma is actually Hungry Akuma and Shin Akuma is him when he's not starving?
  • @rengeki8710
    The first secret super is actually the Misogi, a callback to his strongest Lvl 3 super from Capcom vs Snk 2. The second secret is from Street Fighter 3: 3rd Strike, called the Kongou Kokuretsuzan, the killing strike he originally sunk the Gokentou Island with in Street Fighter Alpha.
  • @PopularNobody
    IGN not knowing where his supers originally came from is kinda wild. Gaming is supposed to be your thing.
  • @realchezboi
    His Misogi "big chop" super debuted in Capcom vs. SNK 2 in 2001, and KKZ "giant ground explosion" debuted in 3rd Strike in 1999 (It is first mentioned however in Akuma's ending in SFIII: Second Impact, 1997, where he shatters Uluru in half)
  • @IsraelSoriano
    these moves are older than SFV. ign needs an FGC member on staff.
  • @FrancescoDFF
    You don't need to mash, you just have to wait until he turns his head back (he does that after 8-9 seconds, near the end) and press down + taunt, just once.
  • @diskoBonez
    lmao we're normally fighting a starved Akuma, that's why his moveset's so nerfed. Thanks for revealing this secret!!
  • @LastOfGamers
    Correction: the second super mentioned is from SF3 third strike!
  • @disrupticon
    Bro doesn’t know anything about the history of SF
  • @LastOfGamers
    He's so badass that he got 7 or 8 supers (including airhado)!!!
  • 0:59 that's actually not an SFV reference. It's a reference to Shin Akuma's Misogi from CvS2.
  • @aleister8064
    How funny it is this “gaming journalist” never heard of SF 3rd Strike and assumed it’s a SF 5 callback.
  • @AcidGlow
    "This is a call back to Kage's V trigger" - and that is a call back to Shin Akuma's MISOGI super move in CVS2 and in CVS1 (special intro)
  • @luis_yance
    Honestly, this is the best way they could’ve implemented it. Both players agree to shenanigans? Cool! It’s not like giving you easy access to a clearly broken character like Gill in Third Strike.
  • @360Fov
    This is like how games used to be
  • @LussotheG
    Do these moves stay unlocked or do you have to do this all the time
  • @Yajeeb
    Akuma(SHIN AKUMA) was doing move 1 since Capcom vs SNK 2 and Move 2 since SF 3rd Strike . None if them are a call back from Kage/SF5💀
