Description
Edit
Executed by performing a half-circle forward or backward motion, depending on the character, and pressing punch, the Shakunetsu Hadoken is imbued with thermal energy that sets it on fire.
RyuEdit
Ryu's version is considerably less damaging than Akuma's, but Ryu does not charge when using it, thus making his version faster to pull off than Akuma's (about the speed of a regular Hadoken charge). It hits 1 to 3 times.
From Street Fighter III onwards, his version of the move does not appear directly, instead functioning as his two-hit EX Hadoken.
AkumaEdit
Akuma glows red and charges slightly before releasing it. The projectile hits 1-3 times, depending on the strength of the punch button; this also impacts recovery, with light punch recovering the fastest, and heavy punch hitting the most. Akuma's and Evil Ryu's EX Special version hits three times, recovers as fast as the light punch version, and does some more damage.
Evil RyuEdit
In the Alpha series, Evil Ryu's version is similar to Ryu's: he does not charge when using it, and only hits 1 time. In Super Street Fighter IV, it retains its "charge" property, and functions largely the same as Akuma's.
