Awesome Bosses/Asura's Wrath

When a single game has so many awesome boss fights, you know Asura's Wrath deserves its own section.


 * Asura vs. Ryu. All of it.
 * When the Burst meter in the first battle is full, Asura grabs his extra arms and hits Ryu with an absolutely gigantic Shoryuken that sends both men to the freakin' Moon.
 * If Ryu hits the Messatsu-Goshoryu Ultra on Asura, he manages to return that huge chunk of land that Asura and Augus unearthed back into the ground.
 * Asura's grounded attacks on Ryu during the fight include a fury of punches that culminates with Asura performing a SIX-ARMED SHORYUKEN and a modified Muscle Buster which Asura performs with his six arms. Let's say that even after being, Ryu isn't immune to a good old Groin Attack.
 * By the time the fight comes to a close, Asura attempts to perform the Shun Goku Satsu to finish the battle. Ryu attempts to perform a Shun Goku Satsu of his own. The two attacks cancel each other out with Asura and  Ryu in Back-to-Back Badasses Asskicking Pose just as a regular Shun Goku Satsu is performed and ended.
 * Asura vs. Akuma is even better. The Oni fight and the very ending are easily some of the coolest moments in the game.
 * While not part of the actual battle, Akuma blasting Ryu back to the Street Fighter universe with the Demon Armageddon is pretty cool to watch (and looks less awkward than it does in Street Fighter IV.)
 * During the Mantra Asura vs. Oni battle, the latter will attempt to perform his Super Combo as well as both of his Ultras. With the mighty power of Quick Time Events, you can freaking counter them.
 * But the True Final Boss takes the cake. Fighting it is the whole last level, and IT IS EPIC! All of the Callbacks, all the explosions, and the battle  Even though it is Nintendo Hard, it is just so much damn fun, easily one of the best bosses of all time!
 * The real True Final Boss . Now you can tell that the game is pulling out all the stops. The entire thing is one Moment of Awesome after another. After Meditating Under a Waterfall, Asura finally decides to finish off, and jumps into the same spaceship he used at the beginning of the game. tries to fend him off with a laser attack from far off in the cosmos, which Asura counters by having the laser's energy activate his new Karma Fortress Mantra Reactor, turning himself into Asura, the Destructor.
 * As Asura flies through space, he fights by destroying the basic projectiles thrown at him, punching straight through planets, meteors, and even small stars! When  causes a sun to go nova on Asura to kill him, Asura blows it up. This, just the first phase of the fight, ends when Asura literally punches through  forehead, which is so big even the planet-sized Asura looks like a flea by comparison.
 * In the second phase, Asura makes it to the event horizon of Naraka, and as a reward, lets Asura take Mithra back... if he replaces him as . Asura thinks for a few minutes, then smiles and punches him in the face! A furious  shows off his power by breaking the event horizon with just a stab of a spear, and then he and Asura fight again, except Asura is regular human size now. The above forehead punch happens again, but this time, Asura breaks through the event horizon as well! Eventually,  ditches the spears and goes full on Pummel Duel against Asura. But Asura triumphs despite having his arms broken, Shoryukens  in the face, and then does a massive Hokuto Hyakuretsu ken styled attack.
 * But it's still not over! assumes his ultimate form and stops Asura in his tracks with one finger, reverting Asura back to a more powerful version of his base form.  uses a wide area attack, his mere presence now turning the previously colorful event horizon completely white, along with a massive array of similarly visually staggering and powerful attacks. The enraged Asura gives a massive punch to  torso, the energy of which keeps building up, then knocks him back with a more powerful version of the laser finisher used on Deus. The uncomprehending but irate  unleashes his QTEs. As the fight grinds on, Asura gives an awesome World of Cardboard Speech and calls out  for only wanting to rule the world, then knocks him off his feet, forcing Mithra out of his grasp. Though Mithra protests that he will die if he kills  by overusing the Wrath mantra and that all the living civilian Demi-gods will become mortal, Asura just smiles to Mithra and delivers a massive punch that destroys  and Naraka with it!
