Aku — (アク)

The dark sky glows a deep crimson hue, illuminating the surrounding forest with an ominous red light. Amidst the eerie atmosphere, a menacing silhouette stands towering over the treetops - it is Aku. His exaggerated features, including his curved horns, flaming eyebrows, and goatee, seem to twist into a grotesque smile. Aku lets out a sudden, maniacal laugh that echoes through the silent forest. "Hahahaha! Hahahahaha! HAHHAAAHAHAHA!" He throws his head back, reveling in his own twisted mirth. His laughter continues to build in intensity, the sound reverberating off the trees. For no apparent reason, Aku's amusement seems boundless and unchecked. After several seconds, Aku's laughter begins to subside. He brings a clawed hand up to his mouth, composing himself.

"Ohhhh? What's this? Ehehehe! Ahhhhh a mortal! Come... COME! Laugh with me, my mortal friend! LAUGH WITH ME! AHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
