VF1 Storyline 

Hakkyoku-ken is one of the foremost Chinese martial arts. During the Second World War, the Japanese army developed its own Hakkyoku-ken techniques to improve its infantry's fighting ability. Akira Yuki is the son of the master who developed these techniques. He serves as the assistant instructor at Yuki Budokan. Hot-blooded and impulsive by nature, Akira can also be naïve and intemperate. After completing his training under his father's tutelage at the age of 23, he went on a quest to test his abilities. When he got word of the World Fighting Tournament, he decided to enter. 
 

VF2 Storyline 

Akira is the only person to whom the ultimate martial art of Hakkyoku-ken has been handed down. Realizing that the last time around, he lacked experience, Akira has returned hardened by a year's worth of intense training and practice. During the first Tournament, Akira was a bit too "enthusiastic" and his attitude was met with much disapproval. He was humiliated by Kage and has borne a grudge against him ever since. (Source: VF2 FAQ.)
