Between Akantor and Ukanlos, I've always found Ukanlos more intimidating since its 4 Ultimate appearance. The way it sizes up the hunter and stares into their eyes screams confidence and POWER. Ukanlos has the energy of an insurmountable mountain.
It was akantor for me when i saw him killed gravious i thought he was going to be kind of sloppy but brute strength but when i faught him feels like some one give tigrex personality to turtle.
@@daylem5829 I fought both in MH freedom unite and was confused when I went to the wiki to look it up again as sized comparison arts made the. barely longer than a big Rathalos.
These two are the exact reason why I think Pseudo Wyverns should be it's own category, I get there's lore behind them being called flying wyverns, but they DONT FLY, unless your Barioth
@@theadmiral4157 yeah, if Rathalos is a bird and Tigrex is a T-Rex... then Akantor and Ukanlos wouldn't even be considered dinosaurs yet if you know what I mean
They were on the original Rise leak which was completely right even mentioning Crimson Glow valstrax. So it might be possible they will be the final Title update, finishing sunbreak with the 2nd gen Final Boss(es) after finishing Iceborne with the 1st gen final Boss
Will never forget that one quest where you had to fight a perma enraged Ukanlos in 4U in order to unlock this Samurai looking armor. Once we finally pulled it off, those hunters who accompanied me were brothers in arms
one of my fave monsters of all times, which i guess is a given with my name. thanks for covering them, mhfu was the part that got me addicted to monhun way back when!
I love Ukanlos and his theme. When he leaps, he's Like a big ice kitty. I named one of my ice raw sets in sunbreak that uses Goss Harag's stuff after him
I remember having so much fun fighting them in Freedom Unite, they’re the reasons I fell in love with using the hammer. Pounding their massive faces with your hammer is very satisfying. haha!
Ukanlos is my fav monster of all time and I just want it to return again. Obviously only with Akantor on its side. These two were always one of my favourite hunts ^^
Akantor is my absolute all time favorite monster. I've been screaming everywhere all the time to add akantor to the new games.I wanna see how they would update the monster and could you imagine how the wirebug changes this fight? I've been pretty disappointed with new added monsters to sunbreak. Variants are cool but, I want more different monsters. Variants can be really fun but, it feels super lazy development on their part. Come on capcom, give me AKANTOR!!!!!
Akantor is one of my favorites I remember fighting him for the first time in 4u and carting countless times until I finally beat him. One of the best monsters in the series
I really really hope they come back in sunbreak and bigger than ever.they seem to be bringing back huge monsters like this. I used to just constantly grind these two for fun on portable 3rd j
a singular speedrunner? well im just an old fashioned solo artist. these babies are cream with a little spice. They are the soft spot in my heart. Thank you, Black God. You are always a fren.
I remember in 4U, my nephew and 2 of my friends posting what we thought would be a by the numbers Ukanlos quest as we had successfully completed the quest many times before. Upon dropping down to the area Ukanlos 1-shot defeated ALL of us within the first few seconds as if we weren't wearing armor. Talk about epic fail.
There's an underlying reason as to why the Guild fears an Ukanlos and Akantor meeting, and its not the fight. You see, Ukanlos' mere presence causes temperatures to drop for miles around...it's a living cold front. In Freedom Unite, the Hunter had to slay it because it was going to make the already harsh Pokke winter even worse. And I suspect the temperature within a few miles of Akantor is going to rise - maybe not to the same extreme as its icy counterpart, but it would probably be enough to be considered a warm front. And what happens when a cold front meets a warm front? Extreme weather. If the White and Black Gods even got within a few miles of each other, massive thunderstorms, flooding, hailstorms and even tornadoes would ravage everything in the vicinity - and if they actually met and started fighting, the weather would get even worse. And they would probably fight to the death - but since they're completely equal, the weather would persist for a long time...
These two were terrifying in a way most monster in the series aren’t, barring White Fatalis. Even if the fights aren’t that hard, the presentation for these two makes it feel like there’s no way a hunter can beat them.
Also....they are classified as a flying wyvern because they use flying wyvern skeleton, just the sub stance pseudowyvern like tigrex narga and barioth Still wondering why capcom not just classified Kirin as a herbivore with thunder element if it's based on characteristics alone. Then again elder dragons are amalgamation of many structures from herbivores, leviathan, fanged wyvern to whatever the f narkarkos and yamatsukami were
If ever capcom decides to show them in newer installments, I hope they'd live up to their name as the black and white god. I'll be expecting a battle as hard as fatalis in iceborne and involves usage of fire and ice elements in each and every type of attacks they make
I also notice that Akantor is actually fully black/dark grey, even though the Ingle Isle makes him look more red/orange it's a similar problem that Alatreon had before Iceborne
What I remember from fighting akantor was it taking (I counted) 40 tries. Finally beating it and realizing it’s weapons had the worst sharpness of its rarity.
Those 2 are monsters that belong to destructive non-elder dragon monsters, has ed level power despite not being one. The others are ahtal-ka and deviljho
The names of these two sound like two people (one of them called "Los") locked in an eternal screaming battle. "Los, I can‘t!" "Or you can!" "Los, I can’t!"…
I like to think that someone from the development team are stuck unable to thought out new monsters till they see a pair of spoon (ukanlos) and fork (akantor)
First time fighting Akantor was back in Freedom 2 when it first came out. I was at my friends house trying to beat this guy in full blango armor with a ravager blade+. Terrible idea I know but I was a kid and had no idea how the armor system worked. Still managed to beat it somehow lol.
Capcom needs to both of these monsters in future Monster Hunter games. I never got to fight them in the old generations ( because I never played any of the older games ).
I unfortunately never got to wield the Akantor Katana, it was just the best Longsword there ever was in MH, just for that I wish they would bring these magnificent beasts back into the game!
I do think Akantor armour and weapons would be rather interesting... as Bludgeoner seems to be non-existent in Sunbreak (it isn't present on ANY armour set) so they could bring it back as an exclusive skill on Akantor armour although the lack of Bludgeoner makes sense as there are ZERO weapons in Master Rank that are below Blue Sharpness by default lol
@@nekrumzero8117 normally yes... but back in base Rise; it could be quite formidable if paired with certain Rajang weapons and the Hi-Ninja Sword as they have high raw and VERY high affinity respectively and green sharpness
One of the reasons why I think world/iceborne isn't finished yet: cause it didn't have akantor and ukanlos, the very two monster ancestors of the wyverns Also crimson and white fatalis isn't there too which makes me think that they should give us an MH world sequel after MH rise
Akantor and Ukanlos are no Elder Dragons, but from a sheer powerlevel I would say there on the higher end of the Class 2 Elders. I mean for a Ukanlos a Kushala is just a snack.
It's ridiculous that Akantor & Ukanlos aren't classified as Elder Dragons... They're big, powerful, can't fly & don't have wings (not flying wyvern), and can control the elements on the environment (one of the typical Elder Dragons trait)
Elder dragon means "we dont know how this thing works". Its a blanket term for unknown creatures in general, hence the massive diversity in the group. Throwing every cool and strong monster into that bag does nothing but detract from the series as a whole
@@crim1188 That statement was proven from time to time to be only half right. While some of the Elder Dragon does not resemble the form of a *dragon* most of them do, or at least somehow related to dragon-like lore. The underlying main factor of the Elder Dragon category is that they are extremely dangerous and can be consider to be natural disasters. Taking that into consideration as a base factor, it's pretty obvious that Elder Dragon can be separated into 2 categories: *Dragon type* which resembles and has the classic dragon archtypes, such as Fatalis, Alatreon, Lao Shen Lung, Malzeno, Kushala Daora, Dire Miralis, etc And *Non Dragon type* which has the main danger/threat factor of the Elder Dragon but not resembling or has the shape of a dragon, such as Kirin, Yamatsukami, Nakarkos, Ceadeus, etc Now, Akantor & Ukanlos are classified as flying wyvern because their ancestry's anatomy are indeed flying wyvern-like, *BUT* these 2 obviously has evovled enough to the point of we definitely can't say that they are flying wyvern anymore. Like, we don't called chicken dinosaur... Akantor & Ukanlos are, and should be, consider as Dragon Type Elder Dragon based on their appearances. They're also super strong & durable, that in the original MH Freedom Unite we almost certainly cannot beat them with a single hunt. Moreover, they posseses elemental power that directly affected the environment, Akantor with Earthquake and Lava manipulation & Ukanlos with ice glacier manipulation, and should be consider as natural disater of threat level...
i know the answer. Its an amazing huge ass monster that capcom will never bring back coz they are busy coming up ideas like spirit bird all around the map
The new world is a setting. Bishaten is an old world monster, because he's in the old world. Tobi is a new world monster because he's in tge ancient forests of the new world
Akantor can easily kill a Gravios and I remember somewhere that it can also kill Teostras so it can fight elders. Elder dragons are more of a catch all category for monsters that have abilities, behaviors or strength that can't be explained in universe. Take Kirin for example, it can be absolutely thrown around by Rajang, a fanged wyvern but is still an elder dragon because of how it can call literal thunder down on hunters.

@@daylem5829 I fought both in MH freedom unite and was confused when I went to the wiki to look it up again as sized comparison arts made the. barely longer than a big Rathalos.
Ukanlos already on 2nd Gen together with Akantor

If you're talking about what I think you're talking about, then most of them can fly, or at least could fly.
They should really give a separate category for akantor and ukanlos since they're like the ancestors of all the wyverns existing right now

Capcom needs to bring these two back in Sunbreak or in the future MH games, just imagine what would happen if these two personally meet.
They were on the original Rise leak which was completely right even mentioning Crimson Glow valstrax.
So it might be possible they will be the final Title update, finishing sunbreak with the 2nd gen Final Boss(es) after finishing Iceborne with the 1st gen final Boss
can you imagine a double quest?
Aokiji and Akainu
Biggest turf war ever
@@simonwang4530 Not really, they are both brute force Monsters just in different climates^^
Will never forget that one quest where you had to fight a perma enraged Ukanlos in 4U in order to unlock this Samurai looking armor. Once we finally pulled it off, those hunters who accompanied me were brothers in arms
Akantor is definitely the coolest looking monster in the series and had the absolute best ecology cutscene. RIP Gravios
That was so shocking to see back then. It's just perfect
casually tanking the point blank laser beam that one shots hunters.
Sadly it has the worst theme
That gravios is HUGE
I expected them to make a comeback in Sunbreak alongside Amatsu and Gogmazios they just fit the theme of Sunbreak so well.
amatsu came back, don’t worry
I wish these two were both in MH World the elders recess and the hoarfrost reach would’ve been perfect for them

Ahh, Silver Cataclysm in 4U was so much fun. Fastest triple cart I’ve experienced. The opening beam and quest over in 7 seconds. Good times.
I loved fighting them back in MHFU, My brother, friend and I struggled with Ukanlos for a while but was great when we got it down!
Akantor is just a big tigrex, just like dire miralis is just a big fatalis, in the older games their moveset is exactly the same.
Loved Akantor. And he had such a cool armor set!
Aww man I've missed those two from the old Freedom Unite days on the psp!
With how MH wilds look, theyre going to be a perfect fit there
I really really hope they come back in sunbreak and bigger than ever.they seem to be bringing back huge monsters like this. I used to just constantly grind these two for fun on portable 3rd j
I generally like to refer these two monsters as the "Supreme Beast".
a singular speedrunner? well im just an old fashioned solo artist. these babies are cream with a little spice. They are the soft spot in my heart. Thank you, Black God. You are always a fren.
"Destructo Bros" is what I've always called them lol such cool monsters I do wish they were implemented in sunbreak would've been amazing!
UKANLOS HAS BEEN SIGHTED IN THE NEW WORLD TOO!?
I remember in 4U, my nephew and 2 of my friends posting what we thought would be a by the numbers Ukanlos quest as we had successfully completed the quest many times before.

Sounds like Akainu Vs Aokiji, they will create a punk hazard style area.
Also Odibatorasu the sand god making massive sandstorms and eating everything it comes across.
I still want these two to return for wilds. With weather seeming like it will play a factor.
These two were terrifying in a way most monster in the series aren’t, barring White Fatalis. Even if the fights aren’t that hard, the presentation for these two makes it feel like there’s no way a hunter can beat them.

I think if they bring these two back they should include their long lost cousin Odibatorasu from Frontier
I’m getting the feeling there’s going to be some popular demand for the old school monsters
Loved those fights, really had to time the bad day dive when they went swimming towards you. Got cated many times thanks to that.
If ever capcom decides to show them in newer installments, I hope they'd live up to their name as the black and white god. I'll be expecting a battle as hard as fatalis in iceborne and involves usage of fire and ice elements in each and every type of attacks they make

Imagine capcom bringing back akantor and ukanlos alongside crimson and white fatalis in MH world sequel. That's gonna be fking great ngl
ahhh, shovel boi, my fav monster, I remember the armor set and Greatsword was absolutely dope in 4U
Had alot of fun fighting these two... WITH MY DRAGON RIDER LANCE, please bring that kushala lance back lol
I say do Shen-Gaoren or Ahtal-Ka next. (Ka being my favorite)
The names of these two sound like two people (one of them called "Los") locked in an eternal screaming battle.
"Los, I can‘t!" "Or you can!" "Los, I can’t!"…
1:20 this scene actually reminds me of the Flaming Espinas ecology cutscene
Ukanlos was so cool. Akantor has a very good looking set. Ukanlos is just scary to me when I was playing the game as a sixth-grader lmao

Any reason you don't include any sfx or sounds of the monster in these videos? Otherwise great! Super cool stuff
The notorious "flying wyverns"
Akantor and ukanlos were the fork and spoon of monster hunter. We need chopsticks

What about odibatorasu?

Goofed around an killed the mh4u Akantor with a bow. Took forever and multiple tries but i really wanted that master sword sns
Did they use Akantor skeleton for Gaismagorm? lol
I miss them.
Also Deviljho.

For a long time i though they were elder dragons
wasn't there one more brother? or am i trippin

Ukantor and Akanlos
I want to fight them at same time....
There is nothing I don’t like from Akantor. From the fight, the armor and weapon design, the skill… all of them…
I love Akantor, Ukanlos is kinda meh for me though.
Akantor fire
Ukanlos ice
Elamus lighting
Dekarma Water
Warsyiar Dark
😂🤔👍
Am I the only one who thinks Akantor & Ukanlos should be classified as *Fanged Wyverns* instead of *Flying Wyverns?* 🤔
Wrong other than a black dragon I dont see any elder dragon beating Akantor and ukanlos.
Please bring them to MHRise
Who are akantor and ukanlos?…
Not flying wyverns that what
Basically, they're like the ancestors of all the wyverns existing in monster hunter universe
