You're absolutely right. Well, let's dip into Akira as a whole just a bit. I may speak what I know of MU's but my knowledge is limited and skewed by online play.
Lets look at Akira's pros and cons here. Going to try to be as quick as possible but... yeah still gonna be a wall of text.
With...
I still can't get with that list. Sarah is vastly overrated and in no way is top 3. Helena and Pai above Akira? Jann Lee in B? Hitomi on the lower half of B? Ein above Rachel, Leon and Kokoro?
The only thing that everyone seems to agree upon is that Gen's the definitive best character in the game.
Odd thing about fuzzying is that while I know 33 is faster than holding guard and pressing 2, when I do 33 I get hit by mid strikes.
Are you holding guard and then pressing 33 or are you pressing 33 and immediately pressing guard thereafter? I don't think I've ever fuzzyguarded correctly now...
What are your thoughts on the Akira vs Gen Fu matchup and I know Gen's the superior character but what would you say he beats out Akira on besides offensive vortexes and force techs?
As well as.. well, gender. Just cover up the Kasumi eyes, make the angle different, maybe a little puff of smoke if possibly or a little orange hair peeking out and voila, Slower Kasumi clone with epic teleports and more damage.
