Holy shit Asura's Wrath HYPE. For the uninitiated, this is Power Trip: the Video Game. Everything and everyone in this game is just so absurdly busted in power level that it's great, even if there isn't all that much "gameplay" involved. I doubt we'll see another, but I'd love it if we did.

Unfortunately, this isn't the best way to show it off. There's a lot of good buildup to it! Dodging through space, ki-blasting fireballs and comets... pretty damn sweet. That's why it got this far. Because in the end, it's just one punch, and it's not a well-sold punch at that, even if he is essentially punching kinda-Indra-Brahma amalgam in the face. A lot of this is more due to presentation than the move itself -- we don't really get to see what happens beyond shattering the facade because the scene cuts into the next part of the fight, so it didn't actually finish the job as much as get an entry to which he could finish the job. Also, that fight had an end would have done far better. Same with the scene where he blows up the dude trying to poke the world... which I think is the first boss. Damn this game is great. Wish it had a better representative here.
