Eternal Fighter Zero/Akane Satomura
Introduction
Satomura Akane (里村 茜) is an elegant fighter who uses her shapeshifting hair as a weapon. Her friend Shiko is always eager to help out when called for. Her hair gives her a decent range, and her multiple Leaps give her a sense of unpredictability.
Akane is one of the heroines of ONE, a visual novel produced by Tactics in 1998. She is a classmate of Kouhei. When it rains, one will always find Akane at the grassy field, looking as if she was waiting for someone. She is very quiet to the point where you could say she isolates herself from others. During ONE, Kouhei learns the reason for Akane's melancholy, which is connected to his own fate...
Stage: Rainy Field (雨の空き地)
BGM: A Tair
Character-Specific Notes
- Akane is able to air jump once, and air dash/backstep once.
- A few of Akane's moves call forth her friend Shiko to the battle. If Shiko is already on-screen, Akane will not be able to use any Shiko-centric moves until Shiko is off-screen again.

Specials
236* - Enter Shiko-san (詩子さん登場です)
In all versions, Shiko can be knocked down for several seconds with one hit. This move will not work if Shiko is already onscreen. | |
623* - Rainy Spin (レイニースピン)
Akane spins up and forward, dealing multiple hits as her hair twirls around her. | |
214* - Assault Leap (アサルトリープ)
Akane somersaults into the air. If no followup is used, she lands and does a low sweep.
412* - Trick Leap (トリックリープ) Akane quickly leaps a certain distance forward in the air, and drops straight down.
Followups: C - Air Sting (エアスティング) Akane abruptly kicks down and slightly toward the opponent. 236* - Stun Needle (スタンニードル) Akane throws 3 fast hair needles forward and slightly down at the opponent. If the C version needles are blocked, they will bounce up into the air and fall down on the opponent. The angle of the needles is exceptional for playing a good keepaway game, and can be used to punish various long range setups. Using various heights can be effective in confusing a player, too. 4C - Air Carrier (エアキャリア) From Assault Leap only. During Akane's Assault Leap, Akane stops somersaulting and reaches out with her hand. On connecting, the opponent is first airthrown, and then launched into the air. This move requires strict timing. Once the move is performed, Akane's hand must reach the opponent within about half a second, otherwise the move becomes harmless and can be easily punished. This move can set up for high damage combos in the corner, though it's difficult to follow up out of corner. 2C - Pile Masher (パイルマッシャー) From Trick Leap only. Akane's hair forms a drill around her feet and drills straight down. This move will knock down the opponent if it connects. This attack can be used for ridiculous crossup oki. Be careful not to use the wrong Trick leap, though. | |
j236* - Bad Waffle (バッドワッフル)
Akane's hair transforms into a giant waffle surrounding Akane, and spins diagonally down-forward until reaching the ground. |
Eternity Specials
236236* - Rain of Tears (レインオブティア)
Akane launches several hair swords straight up off screen. A moment later, the swords fall aimed at the opponent. The opponent can be hit by both the launched swords going up and the falling swords coming down. The number of swords that fall is directly related to the number of swords Akane launches. If she is interrupted by an opponent during the move and only launches 5 swords, only 5 swords will fall. In the corner, this attack can be comboed after a 214 4C. Don't use this randomly, you will be thrown and their throw invincibility will make it a total waste. | |
214214* - Absolute Rejection Barrier (絶対拒否障壁)
Akane turns her back toward the opponent as a light-blue barrier appears in the specified location.
This super uses only 1 Level of SP for all 3 versions. This, in combination with Akane's drill-hair, can be used to combo on oki crossup tricks. | |
641236* - Dempshiko Roll (デンプ詩子ロール)
|
Final Memory
AA6BC - Unpleasant Hell Murder (嫌獄殺)
Akane, with one leg raised and bent, slowly slides forward. On connecting, the screen turns black for a few seconds, and then Akane is seen looking away from the downed opponent. If this move drains the last of the opponent's hit points, the kanji for "Unpleasant" (嫌) appears in the background. Even though this move is unblockable, Akane can still be hit out of it very easily. |

Note:
- 662B doesnt work on everyone !
- The combo with 236C (rep2-4) only works at midscreen!
- For 2B 5C IAD jB its an important combo chain of Akane so you should practice it ! Choose Mio/Misaki/Ayu for dummy its easier to hit them with it. The right height for it to work is around Akane's skirt.
