Description[]
Akuma vs All For One. 2 dark characters who embrace their power and uses them to their intended intent, much to the dismay of their brothers. Will the Akuma's mastery of the fists be too much for All For One, or will All For One seize control over the Satsui No Hado?
Intro[]
Wiz: Akuma. The Master of the fist and the Satsui No Hado.
Boomstick: And All For One. My Hero Academia's Symbol of Evil.
Wiz: There is a choice for those who have superpowers. Whether they use it for good or for bad. But what if the powers that are gifted to them have a purpose that others would want to change.
Boomstick: Well not for these 2. They most definitely use them for their intent, and we're here to see who uses them better. He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.
Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons armor and skills to see who would win a Death Battle.
Akuma[]
Wiz: The Ansatsuken. This is a special martial art that was literally made for killing.
Boomstick: I mean, what do you expect? It's name literally translates to Assassination Fist. This martial art is a mix of many kinds of martial arts like Karate and Judo into a fighting style that is all about killing your foes as fast and brutally as possible.
Wiz: The master to this martial art, Goutetsu, had trained 2 brothers in the ways of the Ansatsuken. One of these brothers, Gouken rejected this methodology of the martial arts and later formed a new version of it that is not focused on killing.
Boomstick: That has got to be boring. But you would be happier when the other brother fully embraced the martial art and used it to it's full intent. That other brother, is Akuma.
Wiz: Akuma's lust for power is incredible. So incredible he trained exponentially to learn the ultimate form of the Ansasuken. The Satsui No Hado.
Boomstick: Which translates to "Surge of Murderous Intent"! Akuma would then challenge his master to prove that he was the best at Ansatsuken, and he killed the sh*t out of him. Though this did also have an effect of his relationship to Gouken being ruined forever.
Wiz: With this victory, Akuma labeled himself the new master of the Ansatsuken and begun to travel the world in order to perfect his skills even more. To prove to Gouken that he was wrong for rejecting its intent.
Boomstick: Akuma can fire fireballs from his hands called the Gohadoken or the Shakunetsu Hadoken. He can uppercut you with the Goshoruken and kick you with the Tatsumaki Zankukyaku. But thanks to the Satsui No Hado, he can do a few more things that normal Ansatsuken fighters can't do.
Wiz: Like the Ashura Senku, which makes Akuma intangible and can even let him teleport. The Dohatsu Shoten, which can make Akuma's attacks even more deadly. But perhaps the greatest move and most iconic attack in Akuma's arsenal is the Shun Goku Satsu.
Boomstick: AKA the Raging Freaking Demon.
Wiz: The Raging Demon is so dangerous, it can even obliterate the opponents soul using the gravity of all their pass sins. In short, the more sins you've committed, the more lethal the move is.
Popup: The Raging Demon does have an exploitation as the foe must have a soul in order for it to be lethal. Another way to avoid its effects if you can either separate your should form your body like Gouken or having immense soul resistance like M Bison.
Boomstick: Even when he doesn't want to use the Hell Murder win move, he's still a ridiculous powerhouse. In fact he's so strong, other top tier Street Fighters barely stands a chance against him. Like that time he defeated the super buff Todoroki character Gill. Who was powerful enough to destroy a Platoon of Meteors that was going to cause the extinction of humanity.
Wiz: Though to be fair, his feats don't end there. Over the course of him traveling the world, Akuma has fought many types of foes. One of which in particular was a student of Gouken, the lone warrior Ryu. Who was also influenced by the Satsui No Hado, but reject the use of it and trained to suppress it.
Boomstick: This would lead Akuma to become a sort of "haunting spirit" for Ryu, trying to convince him that the Satsui No Hado is the key to ultimate power. Though he mainly tried to convince him because he believed that with the Satsui No Hado, Ryu will provided the biggest challenge to Akuma.
Wiz: Which would make sense. Bison once used Ryu's Satsui No Hado to power a machine that obliterated a city in SFA3. We know from Dan's ending of the game that the machine was in Thailand, which makes sense as the machine was in the shape of a Buddha figure, a common religion in Thailand's area. Assuming a city as big as Bangkok, which is the capital of Thailand, Ryu had to have been generating energy over a single Gigaton of Tnt.
Boomstick: And Ryu wasn't even in peak condition at the time, and even when he is, he still has been beaten by Akuma time and time again, despite Ryu using a power that could match the Hado in the form of Mu No Ken. Damn is there anyone in Street Fighter that can possibly match Akuma?
Wiz: Well aside from his brother Gouken and temporarily Gen, only one character has shown to match Akuma. The 140 year old Hermit Oro. In fact the battle between the 2 came to a halt, because both fighters knew that if they were to continue, one of them would die.
Popup: Oro was powerful enough to defeat the Yoga fighter Dhalsim, who during his ending in SFA3 can overload the machine Bison used to harness Ryu's Satsui No Hado.
Boomstick: Though granted Oro mostly holds back his power in almost all fights, but that still doesn't mean that Akuma fighting him to a standstill isn't impressive as he has a super form.
Wiz: Right, if someone were to give into the Satsui No Hado, they risk becoming lost in it. Akuma has manage to use a portion of this might to assume the form of Shin Akuma. A form so strong that Akuma can level a meteorite with an explosion that could be seen from outer space.
Boomstick: But if Akuma were to give into the Hado completely, he assumes the form of Oni. A form many time stronger than Shin Akuma. He's so strong that a simple karate chop can make a volcano erupt and can even survive lava as if he was taking a bath. Kinda sucks how he never uses this form in canon.
Popup: Despite him never using the Oni form in the main canon, in the Udon Comics he has been shown to transform into Oni. Also while the Udon comics are technically a separate continuity, there is no change in Akuma's abilities and skillset.
Wiz: Well whether the form is canon or not, Akuma is still a beast. The shockwaves from his punches have been shown to ravage forests, he's strong enough to punch Ayers Rock in half, and was once plunged into a volcano being stranded in there for an extended period of time and pop out perfectly normal.
Boomstick: With the only side effect being his clothes being melted. Talk about kinky. But perhaps his most well known feat is that time he leveled an island in a badass way. Though most of his feats aren't just brute power. He once got the jump on M. Bison, who himself is fast enough to tag a satellite laser. Based on the angle the laser was fired and the time it took it to reach the satellite, Bison had to have reacted to a beam moving 3% light speed.
Wiz: Akuma may be a powerhouse but he is not without his flaws. Most notably, his love for fighting. If anyone were to disrespect fighting as a whole, he could be lost to his anger fighting more ruthlessly. Also as Oni he loses all self control, as the Satsui No Hado is a living murderous entity. A force that pushes others to give in to the murderous intent. Which could explain why he never uses it in canon.
Boomstick: Still it doesn't hinder the fact that Akuma is one of the most dangerous fighters in his universe and he will continue fighting until he seeks out a true worthy opponent.
Akuma: Die 1,000 Deaths. (Proceeds to do the Raging Demon) Messatsu.
All For One[]
Wiz: In the world of My Hero Acadamia, people have evolved to the point where they can inherit a Quirk, or in more simple terms a superpower.
Boomstick: The odds of someone inheriting a Quirk is so great, everyone might as well be a superhero. Though it does suck for those who don't have any as 80% of everyone on earth had a Quirk.
Wiz: Unfortunately during the time when Quirks were being discovered, people were at odds as to how the deal with the introduction to Quirks. However, one man had the power to "supposedly" help out. This man is All For One.
Boomstick: While not much is known about him personally aside from his real last name being Shigaraki, All For One planned on using his Quirk to help out those around him. The only thing he wanted in return is their service as this guy had a, devastating unforgivable plan on using his power to seize control of the world.
Wiz: Though despite his, honestly insane ideology, he is still a supportive man to those he cares about. Most notably his sick and weak younger brother, who despised his view on how his powers should be used.
Boomstick: Despite this, All For One was still very compassionate to his younger brother, and he gave him a Quirk against his will. But it turns out this act would come back and bite him square in his left ass cheek, because it turns out his brother had a Quirk all along.
Wiz: Though it wasn't anything too special, or at least to him. But through the combination of his Quirk All For One gave to him, it created the new Quirk, One For All. A Quirk that would inevitably lead to his downside.
Boomstick: One For All? I get it now. All For One and One For All. I'm surprised the Mouse hasn't gotten to them at all. But One For All was weak at the time so the brother solution was to pass it down, making it stronger so that one of the successors will be strong enough to beat All For One. But most of them failed, because All For One has superhuman strength, speed, and durability.
Wiz: All For One's main quirk is... well, All For One. With it he can forcibly steal someone's Quirk and use it for himself. Further more, he can even give a Quirk to others when he feels like it.
Boomstick: Over the course of his 100 years of manipulating Japan from the shadows, he has picked up a bunch of different Quirks. A Quirk that lets him see Infrared Ray, a Quirk that lets him walk on air, a Quirk that lets him shoot massive air cannons strong enough to send people through multiple buildings, a Quirk that can send enemy projectiles back at the wielder, and even a Super Regeneration Quirk.
Wiz: His Super Regeneration is likely comparable to the Nomus. The first one was able to regenerate half it's body and a more recent Nomu, called Hood, can regenerate from his head alone.
Popup: His Super Regeneration Quirk does have its limits. All Might once punched him with enough force that he overloaded All For One's regeneration.
Boomstick: Though those are hardly his only Quirks. He still has Quirks that can increase his physical abilities, the ability to summon tendrils from his fingertips, search and identify a person's weak points, an impact nullifier and reflector, teleport others with a black gooish portal, can launch Radio Waves that jam electronics, yada yada yea you get the point he has a sh*t ton of Quirks. He can even combine multiple Quirks to transform his arms in a somehow freakier Merged Zamasu.
Wiz: Through his quest to seize control over the world, he has fought countless enemies. Including those who have One For All passed down from his brother.
Boomstick: Because of this, he has killed a total of 4 One For All wielders, each of them more powerful than the last. In fact his battle with the 7th user, Nana Shimura resulted in an entire city being destroyed.
Wiz: All For One may have proven strong enough to kill a great number of his brother's successors, but the 8th one would ultimately prove to be his match. The Symbol of Peace, Toshinori Yagi. AKA, All Might.
Boomstick: All Might's power isn't one to be looked over. He once punched with enough force to summon a storm and he has even moved faster than the eye could see.
Wiz: Though All For One can do a lot more than just scale to All Might. He eventually did the same thing his brother did and passed down his Quirk down to other people. One of these people, Nine, was powerful enough too summon a storm that encompassed an entire island. And his subordinate Tomura Shigaraki was tough enough to survive an explosion that reached the bottom of the ocean floor.
Boomstick: Since his Quirk doesn't get stronger as it gets passed down, we could easily compare All For One to them and potentially even more so.
Wiz: His air cannon are strong enough to disperse Endeavor's Hellfire which is hot enough to burn through buildings like a hot knife through butter, defeated multiple Pro Heroes at once with a single move, and his presence is so overwhelming that other characters are frozen in fear. Though he did eventually fall at the hands of All Might. Crippling his power and being put on life support.
Boomstick: But keep in mind that that his second battle with All Might was when they were both well passed their primes, with both suffering damages that halts their ability to uses their full power. Meaning that All For One at his best should be comparable to All Might during his prime. And Prime All Might has been compared to Izuku Midoriya currently, the 9th bearer of One For All.
Wiz: Izuku's power and speed is absurd. He's fast enough to dodge lightning, a feat that would have required speeds above Mach 280, he outpaced a bullet fired by a sniper rifle and with the aid of Bakugo, they were powerful enough to disperse Nine's storm. Given the size of the storm in comparison to the island that they were standing on, Izuku had to have been attributing to a feat worth 3 Gigaton of Tnt at most.
Popup: The lightning Izuku dodge was from Nine, who's original Quirk is weather manipulation, meaning that the lighting that he dodge was made naturally.
Boomstick: Damn that's impressive. All For One really is in another league in comparison to his universe. Which would help because this guy is a genius. Capable of exploiting the personal feelings of his opponents to make them die in grief when he kills them. Though he still has a fair number of flaws that prevent him from always winning.
Wiz: You might be wondering if All For One can just steal Quirks, why couldn't he just steal One For All. This is because if his opponents will is superior to his own, he will be unable to steal it. Also his Quirks can be exploited if his opponents were to have insight knowledge of them. Though to be fair, I doubt they will be able to estimate the vast number of Quirks he has at his disposal for that to be effective.
Boomstick: Whether fighting personally, manipulating the forces of evil from the shadows or letting his minions do his dirty work for him, he will always be the true bearer of the name "Symbol Of Evil". And he will continuously terrorize all those who oppose him, no matter what.
All For One: We are the same though you'd never admit it. Just as you longed to become the hero of justice. I longed to be an all powerful devil.
Death Battle[]
We start off in Musutafu City. A man in a dark blue martial arts Gi is seen walking down a city road. This man was Akuma. As he is walking down the road, the people around him tries to get out of his walkway due the massive intimidating presence he is carrying. Akuma walks into an alleyway, not knowing that he is being followed. Right behind him is the League of Villains. The head honcho was Shigaraki and starts to make conversation with Akuma.
Shigaraki: Excuse me.
Akuma stopped and looked back. He is unimpressed with what he sees.
Shigaraki: We can tell at first glance that your power is remarkable. What say you come join us?
Akuma looked back forward, declining his request essentially. Shigaraki looked angry.
Shigaraki: Well if THAT'S your answer, we'll just take that power of yours.
That sentence got Akuma's attention, with him now turning his whole body back at them.
Akuma: You must be foolish if you plan to take the Satsui No Hado. It be best for you to leave, if you value your lives.
Shigaraki looked angrier. But before he or the rest of the league could say anything or even react he is stopped by the voice of his master, All For One.
All For One: Don't act. He is not lying. This is a battle you cannot win Tomura.
All For One appeared using his Warping Quirk. He begins walking towards Akuma with an interest in mind.
All For One: I will attend to this man personally.
The league steps back as All For One gets close to Akuma.
All For One: You will receive one more chance. Either join us or your Satsui No Hado Quirk will no longer be yours.
Akuma: If you think your worthy to take it from me... (gets into fighting stance) show me.
All For One takes a step back and puts his arms behind his back.
All For One: Very well. Let us see what you are capable of.
Akuma attacks first with a punch but All For One swatted him away and into the public streets. Akuma quickly recovered from this and fires a Gohadoken. All For One countered using his Reflect Quirk in combination with the Scatter Quirk. Sending the Gohadoken back at Akuma, along with 12 more Gohadokens. Akuma dodges 11 of the Gohadokens with him just punching through the last Gohadoken. Unfortunately the Gohadokens that missed all ended up destroying the city around them and the people made a break for it, with neither Akuma or All For One giving a damn.
Akuma then got up close and attacked with his Tatsumaki Zankukyaku. All For One countered with his Rivet Quirk, which he used to grab Akuma's leg and throw him into a building. All For One then hovered to the building assuming the battle is over. But before he noticed, Akuma suddenly teleported in front of him and threw an uppercut, damaging his life support mask.
Akuma: Goshoruken!!!
With 1 more downward punch, Akuma launched All For One into the ground with incredible force. The league tries to make an attempt to help their leader, but All For One put his arm out telling them to stop. Akuma tries to throw one more punch but All For One got out of the way at the last moment. He then used a few strength enhancer Quirks to launch a punch with Akuma not having enough time to block it. The resulting punch sent Akuma flying through the city street, smashing through multiple cars during the process. Akuma found his footing in which the moment he looked up, he sees All For One getting ready to shoot a Air Cannon that is enhanced with multiple Quirks. Before he did so however, Akuma readied a stance. As soon as the Air Cannon was launched, the buildings behind Akuma were getting destroyed. All while the attack went though Akuma as he used his Ashura Senku technique. He got in close and grabbed All For One by the head, throwing him to the ground. Akuma put his foot on top of All For One to prevent him from avoiding his next attack.
It was at this moment the League jumped in to help All For One, but before they could do anything, Akuma put his hands into the air to charge for his next attack. And when that was finished he punched All For One with the Kongou Kokuretsuzan. The resulting punch the league flying backwards who knows how far and the area of Musutafu that they were fighting in began bursting with lava erupting from the ground. Akuma is then walking away in the resulting lava but stopped when a sudden burst of wind happened behind his back. All For One got back up with an Akuma fist size hole in his chest, which began to heal.
All For One: I will admit. I have underestimated you.
Akuma: As have I.
All For One: I will now fight you with all the power that I have.
Before Akuma could react, All For One got up close and used a variety of enhancement Quirks to send Akuma flying through the air. As he flew threw the air, All For One teleported using his Warping Quirk and whipped out his Ultimate Quirk Combination to send one more punch at Akuma. With 1 more punch and a vomit of blood from Akuma, All For One sent Akuma flying downwards. Akuma then crashed right through U.A. Highschool and landed on one of the school's training area. Akuma got up, batted, the top of his Gi ripped, and is catching his breath. All For One then appeared behind him putting his hands on Akuma's back, using HIS Quirk to steal the Satsui No Hado.
All For One: It would seem that you lost. Now your power is mine.
Angry then filled Akuma's face as his body emitted a powerful aura around him. As it was happening, All For One continued to steal the Satsui No Hado from him. After sometime of nothing happening, Akuma's body turned blue punched All For One back into the city. All For One crashed into a skyscraper with him only seeing a fist as he looked up. He dodges the punch, causing the skyscraper to shatter like glass. All For One lands on the ground, as did Akuma. Now in his Oni form, showing he is now using HIS full power. He sends an uppercut that caused the entire city being engulfed in a dark aura, but he still missed his target. Though he did manage to get All For One to get a glimpse of the Satsui No Hado's power.
All For One: This energy. I see. It is a manifestation of your murderous intent. Or... is it something else?
Oni: It is... THE SATSUI NO HADO!!!
All For One shot several Air Cannons at Oni, with him just blocking them with his fists. Oni retaliated by throwing a swarm of Gohadokens. All For One used Reflect again to send them back but Oni countered this by using the Gohadoken as an energy beam to mow down the attack. All For One narrowly avoids the energy beam, and flew towards Oni to deliver a punch. Oni did the same and the collision between the 2 dispersed the dark aura, showing that Musutafu is badly damaged. All For One used his Rivet Quirk to grab Oni and throw him to the ground, but as he did Oni grabbed the Rivet fingers and did the same to All For One. As that happened he ripped the fingers off of All For One causing massive pain. All For One persisted and still threw hands, but Oni parried his punches and punched the ground hard enough to send All For One flying upwards. With a leap, Oni heads straight for All For One, with his fist glowing. All For One finds his balance and starts flying towards Oni.
He uses every enhancement Quirk he has to match Oni and the 2 collision made an explosion multiple city blocks in diameter. After the smoke cloud lifted, All For One fell to the ground with his right arm being no more. Oni lands on the ground ready to finish the job.
All For One: It would seem that I have lost. Your power is remarkable, just as I predicted.
Unbeknownst to Oni, All For One used his Rivet Quirk with his remaining left hand to finish the job by attacking his back.
All For One: Which is why that POWER IS MINE!!!
With that the Rivet fingers impaled Oni's back and starts to take the power, or so he assumed. For a reason he couldn't comprehend, the aura around Oni's body began to increase.
Oni: You have lost my interest. The powers you used are not yours. You yourself have no rights to steal my power.
Oni then jumped backwards with the Rivet fingers still in his back, causing All For One to stand up. As that happened, Oni got into a stance. He hovered towards All For One to finish the fight.
Oni: Die One Thousand Deaths!!!
He attacked the vital points in All For One's body. We don't see anything aside from the dark Hado in Oni's eyes going around All For One's body. When we finally do see something, it's Oni back as Akuma standing away from All For One's dead body.
Akuma: Messatsu.
Results[]
Announcer: KO!
Boomstick: God, I do feel bad for All For One but I'm more concerned for that city. It'll definitely cost tax payers millions.
Wiz: Finding a victor here wasn't easy. Both Akuma and All For One were both so devastating in almost every aspect, this could have gone in anyone's favor.
Boomstick: All For One's massive Quirk collection means he definitely had the versatility advantage over Akuma, and had many counters to Akuma's own attacks, but the issue is that they were not physically capable of taking Akuma down.
Wiz: First when looking at power, Midoriya's feat of him and Bakugo dispersing a storm is over twice as much as Ryu's Satsui No Hado leveling a city. However Ryu himself was not in peak condition at the time of the feat.
Boomstick: And Akuma has defeated Ryu when he was much stronger and in a much better condition. Hell remember Oro? The dude Akuma himself stalemated? That dude defeated Dhalsim, who could overload that cannon design to harness Ryu's power.
Wiz: Since Akuma can match foes who are supposedly above Ryu when performing that feat, this would likely mean that he could easily match power that is twice above Ryu's best feat. Especially since Akuma could accomplish this feat in his base form alone.
Popup: While All For One Impact Nulification Quirk could be used against Akuma, it does seem to have some limits as it didn't aided him much when he fought All Might the second time. Regardless Akuma's Raging Demon could bypass this as it does not attack the body alone.
Boomstick: But power isn't everything. Akuma was also a lot better in hand to hand combat. Sure All For One is older, but he isn't the kind of guy who would go around fighting foes directly. Unlike Akuma who is constantly training and seeking warriors to test his might.
Wiz: And despite All For One's vast arsenal, many of them did seem inferior to some of Akuma's own techniques. He could phase through a plethora of All For One's attacks with the Ashura Senku, teleport more efficiently than All For One's Warping Quirk, and most of all he had absolutely no counter to Akuma's Raging Demon.
Popup: While All For One is known for messing with his opponent's minds and is an expert in exploiting weak points, Akuma has no good exploitable weakness and wouldn't fall for any of All For One's mind tricks in a random encounter.
Boomstick: With the amount of sins he has committed in 100 years, I have no doubt that it would be grave damage to All For One to the point where it will kill him. But Akuma still needs to be fast enough to land the attack. So to answer that, let's look at their best speed feats.
Wiz: Comparing All For One to Izuku Midoriya's lightning feat did mean he could move over 280 times faster than sound. However doing the same with Akuma to Bison means he can reach speeds over 26,000 times faster than sound, or in this case over 90 times faster than Midoriya. With speeds like that he could easily land the Shun Goku Satsu if need be.
Boomstick: And as a plus side, the Satsui No Hado is a living entity and not a Quirk. Which would mean that All For One's attempt to steal the Satsui No Hado is practically impossible.
Popup: When Tomura Shigaraki obtained the All For One Quirk, he became a new vessel for All For One to uses like a puppet. If All For One were to give that Quirk to Akuma, he could potentially do the same. However, the Satsui No Hado is capable of the same thing and Akuma has trained to not succumb completely to the Satsui No Hado making this attempt difficult for All For One to accomplish.
Wiz: It's also worth noting that a great majority of Akuma's feats can and have been accomplished in his base form alone. With Shin and Oni being another case of problems for All For One. Heck, Shin Akuma was even powerful enough to level a meteor with an explosion visible from outer space. A feat that would require nearly 30 Petatons to accomplish.
Boomstick: That's 10 Million times stronger than anything All For One can compete with, and definitely powerful enough to overload his defensive and healing Quirks.
Wiz: All For One was certainly a good foe for Akuma and can give him a great deal of trouble, but he just couldn't match Akuma's sheer power, speed, experience, and overwhelming instant win move.
Boomstick: In the end, All For One's attempt was All For Nothing.
Wiz: The winner is Akuma.
