Akira is designed after his appearance in ''Virtua Fighter 10th Anniversary'', a port of the original ''Virtua Fighter'' built on the engine used for ''Virtua Fighter 4''; he appears with his blocky model from the original ''Virtua Fighter'', and his animations resemble the choppy movements of the original game. Shin'ichiro Miki reprises his role as Akira, with his voice clips being re-purposed from ''Virtua Fighter 4''. Akira is one of seven characters that only speak Japanese in all versions of ''Ultimate'', with the others being [[Takamaru]], the [[Prince of Sablé]], {{SSBU|Cloud}}, [[Yuri Kozukata]], {{SSBU|Sephiroth}}, and {{SSBU|Kazuya}}.
Akira appears with his blocky model from the original ''Virtua Fighter'', and his animations resemble the choppy movements of the original game; however, his voice clips are sourced from ''Virtua Fighter 4''. As a result, his appearance is similar to ''Virtua Fighter 10th Anniversary'', a port of the original game built on ''Virtua Fighter 4''{{'}}s engine.


Akia can use a variety of martial arts attacks from ''Virtua Fighter'', including his signature move, the Tetsuzanko (where he slams his back into his opponent, launching them forward). He can also block incoming attacks. He can be defeated as well. Before he disappears, he says his famous quote from the ''Virtua Fighter'' series, "{{ja|十年早いんだよ!|Jūnen hayain da yo!}}" (''"It's ten years too soon for you to challenge me!"'', literally ''"Ten years too early!"'')

Akira can be attacked, and even KO'd, which earns the player an extra point.

During the reveal trailer, the Mii Brawler representing Akira is seen performing his forward smash on a small platform on the [[Gerudo Valley]] stage, referencing the small fighting stage sizes in the ''Virtua Fighter'' series while the stage background references the desert canyon stage in ''Virtua Fighter''. The Mii Brawler is next seen battling {{SSBU|Bayonetta}} on the [[Garden of Hope]] stage, with Bayonetta referencing how she can perform the Tetsuzanko technique for her forward throw, while the stage references the forest stage in ''Virtua Fighter''. The ending image features the Mii Brawler in the {{b|Training|stage}} stage, likely referencing the polygonal aesthetic of ''Virtua Fighter''.
