"It seems I still can't see the stars."
—Akira, Project X Zone

Akira Yuki (結城 晶 Yūki Akira?) is a playable character from the Virtua Fighter series and a playable character in Project X Zone 2 teamed up with Kage-Maru.

His main fighting style is Bajiquan, and he relentlessly trains himself to perfect his skills. He has entered the World Fighting Tournament a number of times to perfect his techniques and find worthy opponents.

History

During the second World War, the Japanese army developed techniques to improve the fighting ability of their infantry. Akira was an assistant instructor at his family dojo, Yuki Budokan, and is known for being hot-blooded and impulsive. After completing his training with his grandfather at age 23, he set off to test his skills. Soon the 1st World Fighting Tournament reached his ears, and he set off to test his skills.

Having lost the tournament due to lack of experience, Akira now prepares himself after a year's worth of practice and training. Having lost to Kagemaru, he bore a grudge against him and enters the 2nd World Fighting Tournament.

After winning the 2nd tournament, he returns home with trophy in hand but his grandfather didn't seem too pleased. He then asked the one thing that he will keep asking himself "What is true strength?" He hoped to find the answers in the third tournament.

Having lost the next tournament, he heads home to tell his grandfather the sad news. With renewed determination, he begins his training anew while answering the question of true strength.

After losing the fourth tournament to Kagemaru, he continues his training and now is more determined than ever and hopes to finally hold his own and more against the ninja in the 5th tournament.
