An important change from UNIST is that if you counter a physical attack, you '''cannot''' choose your followup; Akatsuki will always punch. This means this loses to physical attacks with long hitboxes; say goodbye to parrying every hit of Merkava's supers. You'll really get the most out of it when countering a projectile, but since those aren't done up close, what you ''can'' do to punish them is limited. At the very least, cancelling into 236B+C is a good, long range punish, and 214BC can lead into a combo if close enough, or be a high damage punish to a partner. | |||

Overview
"I am the indomitable Thunder God!"
Backstory
An officer for the Gesellschaft war instituition, trained with martial arts for a task: to protect the Gesellschaft's new invention, a massive Blitz Engine in a submarine through a trip in the Artic. Little did he know, the submarine was stuck in the ice, and Akatsuki only remained alive in cryogenic stasis. 50 years later, Akatsuki wakes up to a new landscape, and realizing this was a plot for the Gesellschaft higher ups against him, he decides to go on a rampage to destroy all Blitz Engines, equipped with his own, as the reawakened Thunder God.

An overhead chop. Akatsuki's old 6B. Quick to come out, but unsafe on block, so be wary of using this. |

Akatsuki does a crouching jab. Not a low unlike in UNIST for some reason. You'll either be using 4A or 2B instead, as those serve the purposes of 2A much better; 4A starts pressure while being a frame faster, while 2B is your low. |
2B

A low, stylish kick. Your fastest low button. Has quite a few active frames, making it a good low meaty button. |
2C

A sweep with the leg. Has a bit more range than 2B since it moves Akatsuki forward slightly, but this comes at the cost of being slower and having more recovery. |

After a brief delay, Akatsuki crashes downwards in a fierce punch. The knockdown from this move is so great that it guarantees a safejump. Can be an instant overhead, which is important because this move preserves Akatsuki's momentum. This makes it ideal for not just a crossup, but also a perfect setup for a sandwich scenario if you can use an assist that can cover the recovery of this move. You won't be able to follow up with this move solo, so you'll have to use an assist, where it will have good proration. |
