is it second syllable that is accented? as in ha-DOU-ken kom-BU-cha pa-NER-a bread?

Precisely

Edit: I have discovered that I can annoy my girlfriend by saying kombucha in the same intonation as Ryu says hadouken and it is very excellent

No. Japanese doesn't have accented syllables. It's all pronounced at a steady tone or with emphasis placed where it makes sense in context.
