I plan on remaking this video on VALHALL difficulty. I've gotten better at this game since this video was made. I also plan on making more playthroughs with Blitztank and Adler.
@@LinneRinne Well the controls are somewhat the same. Light - Medium - Heavy Plus the way the way ABK uses combos allowed Akatsuki's transition to be smoother. Kinda wish they would've added Soldat on there, and Arcueid to even it out.
Lim Yong, Steffen Yes. When UNIST comes to PC on August 20, I'm gonna buy it and main Akatsuki. I like his voice, and his design. His line when throwing is my favourite for some reason.
Fritz looks like he fits in Samurai Shodown. Also, the blood present gives the game a bit of an edge. I honestly like it. It's not over the top as Mortal Kombat's gore.
@@ronaldzamora8850Not quite, it's 266X according to the Imperial Japanese calendar that they used before they adopted the standard Gregorian calendar. The game actually takes place fifty years after World War II.
I remember first playing the PC version of ABK back in 2013....except arcade. Good times. Didnt know about the unblockable characters until Best Friends came in. They kinda ruined the surprise for me with Blitztank.
@@unknownguy8687 Oh no, you're not being rude at all. If you want more anime Akatsuki, look up EN-Eins Perfektewelt, the sequel to this game. That game's aesthetic is more bright and colorful.
They weren't actually outright confirmed, it's commonly speculated that the Akatsuki Blitzkampf/EN-Eins Perfektewelt and Senran Kagura names are just placeholder names. But still, I would love to see Akatsuki get in.
Thanks for posting this. Watching this vid & reading up on who the characters are on Wikipedia helped me understand all this a bit. Unique characters, and some very pretty female ones. That Fritz w/the sword causes serious bleeding. 0.0 Good playthrough!
Basically, during World War II the Axis powers were developing a superweapon called the Blitz Motor that could harness the power of electricity. Near the end of the war a Japanese naval officer codenamed Akatsuki was tasked with transporting the Blitz Motor near the Arctic until the ship was somehow destroyed and Akatsuki was presumed dead. Fifty years after the end of the war, Akatsuki mysteriously returned. He hasn't aged a day and he now has power over electricity. He still remembers his old orders: if the mission is a failure, destroy the Blitz Motor. So he travels around Southeast Asia trying to do just that, while other people and factions notice his reappearance and try to go after him so they can claim the godlike power of the Blitz Motor for themselves. Eventually, it's revealed that Akatsuki's old commanding officer Murakumo intentionally sabotaged his mission 50 years ago to try and secure the Blitz Motor for himself so he can become a god. There's also the secret society Gesellschaft which is trying to wipe out humanity and replace it with a new race (which sets up the plot of this game's sequel EN-Eins Perfektewelt).
Adler has given me SO much trouble, even in Normal mode. EDIT: Huh, forgot that Adler was a maniac in later revisions. He just looked like a clone general in Version 1.

Do you perhaps know how to get the game to play in full screen? I can’t manage to get it to work in that mode. Or is there a way to increase the window size in the config that I’m not aware of?

I initially thought that Akatsuki was originally from Under Night In-birth. Today I learned something.
And Eltinum is from Melty Blood too
@@JimMartinFGC Indeed
I thought that too, his transition over to UNIEL was really smooth, he is like, exactly the same.
@@LinneRinne Well the controls are somewhat the same.
Light - Medium - Heavy
Plus the way the way ABK uses combos allowed Akatsuki's transition to be smoother.

I wonder when/if this fighting game franchise will ever get localized officially (assuming it hasn’t already and I hadn’t noticed.)
I don't know the game but this akatsuki guy looks like such a nice and dependable lad
I like how they remixed the intro of this game for Akatsuki in UNIB
I think this fit him more than his theme in this game
The titular character, slumbering into the Hollow Night years into the future...
Lim Yong, Steffen Yes. When UNIST comes to PC on August 20, I'm gonna buy it and main Akatsuki. I like his voice, and his design. His line when throwing is my favourite for some reason.
Sigh... wanted dubbing so badly...
Lim Yong, Steffen If they ever add a dub to UNIB, I'll probably keep Akatsuki in Japanese. Gordeau however... Ian Sinclair is perfect.
@@kyuketsukirook And then he was confirmed in BBTAG.
@@kyuketsukirookAkatsuki's voice actor is also in charge of Murakumo
Shinobu Matsumoto
Fritz looks like he fits in Samurai Shodown. Also, the blood present gives the game a bit of an edge. I honestly like it. It's not over the top as Mortal Kombat's gore.
Okay, Murakumo's run legit scared me when I saw him tiptoe a mach 8 towards Akatsuki.
It's sad that this game will never get an english patch
It's supposed to be getting a worldwide release. That's what I heard from my sister who has the arcade machine at her place in Tokyo
Same thing
Chaos Yeshua don’t know how the world will react to the... erm... german theme?
@@Dropleto I'm sure that the game won't be released in Germany.
Years late but I feel like this game takes place in an alternate version of WWII, which I'm definitely all for it
Well the intro says it sets on year 266X so it's in the future with WW2-esque in it
@@ronaldzamora8850Not quite, it's 266X according to the Imperial Japanese calendar that they used before they adopted the standard Gregorian calendar. The game actually takes place fifty years after World War II.
Dunno why but this game just intrigues me so much
It certainly intrigued me.
1 year later, was it the military theme ?
@@TheKazuma410P sure is for me
@@kyuketsukirook are you playing on pc? what are the controls if i can ask?
The somewhat Nazi or German-esque theme?
I knew of the existence of this game, but I never actually took time to watch a video of it.
First things first: WHAT. A. KILLER. SOUNDTRACK.
Akatsuki is so badass. Trying to learn him and then I'll kick some ass on my locals lol.
Thanks for the video btw.
My local arcade has the arcade version. Too bad nobody likes anime fighting games where I live.
@@kyuketsukirook Yo, that's sick! We only play Akatsuki on Pc 'cause we can't find any arcade machine for this... But we still enjoy the experience.
So my favourite character from Under Night In Birth isn’t even from Under Night In Birth
Akatsuki would have fit pretty well as a guest in Tekken 7.
All of the character theme in this game is so fire
I remember first playing the PC version of ABK back in 2013....except arcade. Good times.
Didnt know about the unblockable characters until Best Friends came in.
They kinda ruined the surprise for me with Blitztank.
The game looks...different from what I was expecting
What did you expect it to look like?
@@kyuketsukirook a bit more anime like, I'm not trying to sound rude or anything, but it looks a bit like a mugen
@@unknownguy8687 Oh no, you're not being rude at all. If you want more anime Akatsuki, look up EN-Eins Perfektewelt, the sequel to this game. That game's aesthetic is more bright and colorful.
Interesting theme for a fighting game. Very original.
Characthers confirmed in a leaked for BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle! So be prepared guys!!!
They weren't actually outright confirmed, it's commonly speculated that the Akatsuki Blitzkampf/EN-Eins Perfektewelt and Senran Kagura names are just placeholder names. But still, I would love to see Akatsuki get in.
Akatsuki confirmed.
@@AlexCampuzano2001 I just saw. I am losing my mind.
That’s the reason I’m on this video lnao
Wow! That leak I suppose was accurate. Thats crazy

I still don't know what is going on the story of this game... And I want to know
Nazi game...

@@kyuketsukirook Thank you soooo much!
love how the text is vertical traditionally, since this is alt universe japan where axis won, so not much english influence
I wouldn't say the Axis won, WWII seems to have gone as it did in our history.
The unofficial Code Geass Spin Off fighting game, at least to me.
I’d name it, Code Geass: Akatsuki the Immortal.
This game needs to be on Steam!
A PC port of the updated arcade version has been in development for a few years now. Progress is very, very slow though.
11:10 Sai is losing his chadness after getting hit on the balls lmao
Adler has given me SO much trouble, even in Normal mode.
EDIT: Huh, forgot that Adler was a maniac in later revisions. He just looked like a clone general in Version 1.
He was just a palette swap of Elektrosoldat at first, until later patches made him his own character. Like Mycale and Perfecti.
13:21 You CANNOT tell me that this WASN'T inspired by Gill
Given that the game has parries like Street Fighter III... Yeah.

The animation looks smoother than uni tbh

I think it has to do with the config program. I forgot how I did it.
Please release the new Akatsuki Blitzkampf on PS5.
no
@@kyuketsukirook I wasn’t asking you. Just posting comments of a fan’s desire wherever I go.
@@rockhyde7775 no
Chesto
i feel like perfecti single handedly ruins the world, tone, and asthetic of this game.
atleast in this game, she's fine in the second game.
