AKIRA

From a prestigious samurai family in Japan, Miyamoto Akira received exceptional training in bushido and taijutsu. Influenced by traditional culture, AKIRA remained a humble man of solemn integrity who exercised restraint in all things, just like his ancestors. While on a liberation operation with U.N. peacekeepers to Southeast Asia, he met his best friend: Frank “Enigma” Steinberger. Years later, misery knocked on his door: AKIRA was involved in an explosion. In an attempt to save his beloved niece Zayina Steinberger, he lost his left eye and right hand in the accident. With the help of his mentor Kitō Takayuki and GO, he was outfitted with a prosthetic eye and a cybernetic right arm. Together with Prancing Dragon, his katana, and Flying Phoenix, his wakizashi short sword, AKIRA was deadlier than ever before. Fatal strikes combined by the pair of overclocking swords create a tremendous recoil that only AKIRA can handle with his years of experience and cybernetic enhancements.
