Biography

Gouken (Japanese: 剛拳 Hepburn: Gōken) was a male human who was born in the modern age where he was the older brother of Akuma. At some pint, the two developed a talent for martial arts and eventually came under the tutelage of a master named Goutetsu (轟鉄 / ゴウテツ Gōtetsu?, "Roaring Iron"). Their man was a practitioner of an art that was originally developed with the intention of killing an opponent and were rooted in Japan's feudal age. In time, Goutetsu taught his skill to his two students but the brothers began to differ in the methods as well as use of the fighting style.
