    Awesome stuff man. I wish the game let you record your own replays, I had so many come-back-from-hell victories saved from SNKvsCapcom2 on the old xbox.

    Nice. I've never really seen an Akuma use a Triple Fireball and the Raging Demon in a match before, let alone the two main offensive weapons.

    I like how the SGS can connect even when Blanka is doing his electricity.  I am about to try to test out if I can throw Blanka out of the electricity as well. Anyone know?  I know you can trip Blanka out of it or fireball him.
     
    What is the difference with Blanka's EX Electricity, besides looking and sounding crazier.
     
    This is what I do against Blanka players:
    Feign fireball motions to lure Blanka into the body-trip animation, block it and immediately d+HK.
    As Akuma, wait for his EX Rainbow Rolls - as that can be reversed by his ultra only.
    Blanka's ULtras can be reversed with Akuma's Ultra and in close quarters - by Akuma's Super.
     Anticipate Blanka Air Crossup - and block opposite.  Most Blanka's just roll, cross up, trip, electricity, and chew/throw.
     Anticipate EX RR whenever Blanka has slots for it and be ready to (if you are a shoto character), jump forward+tatsumaki over it.
     
    I heard I should try stop spamming fireballs after Blanka rolls as that is a bad habit of mine and try to FA instead.  Although his EX Rolls are what I am more concerned over, as it is Armour Breaking.
     
    It looks like I missed with this fireballs prior to Blanka's Wakup, but I tend to throw them immediately in case Blanka does the "bounce-back" wake up animation after a knock-down, but that blanka just lie there to mess with the timings.
     
    True there were  a few useless SRK's but some of them connected. :D
     
    Blank's are a joy to play and is one of the characters that like to do cross ups, just like Vega, he likes Cross-ups and air-mix ups.
    Bison is a crazy anti-air god.  I am working on Raging Demon his Head Stomps.  Balrog has a problem with cross-ups so I like to spam it frequently. And Guile also has issues with cross-ups at times (his flash kick goes 180º).

    @banzairyusan: You can throw blanka during his startup frames of electricity, but not when he already has it going.

    Good comeback, but why are you crossing up and doing a fierce, you should probably think about hit-confirming into a fireball or w/e, since it seems he blocked most of those attempts.

    Wellz.. it was a high pressure situation you know. It was competitive play also. This is why recording is good - for feedback on things you didn't see you were doing and what you can do differently next time. ^^; At times, the next hit may get them, if they try to react after the block. Happens allot - and the next hit connects. Btw, I love your Akuma tutorials.  You love Akuma as much as I do and I feel what you have taught has helped me, in terms of your links (have to work on those).  You put a lot of effort and you did really exceptional work and I hope to see more.
