Kazuya is Jin's dad. That whole family is kind of a cycle of hate. They all start out with varying degrees of good intentions but get consumed with hatred for their fathers. Jin's been struggling with that the most. Starting off as a pretty good guy but he gets consumed by the devil gene more and more as the story goes on.
Kazuya wants to take the devil gene from Jin he actually has no intention of killing him now his father that's a different story and is hinted at still loving and missing jins mom since she helped him keep the devil gene in control and Jin still struggles to keep control Kazuya has full control Kazuya is just a shite father lol but he doesn't want Jin death just depowered in a since
The Angel that you see is the manifestation and the last remnant af Kazuya's good half and even that is getting corrupted. Of all the Mishima family Jin is the only one who wants to end all this madness, despite what happened to Kazuya at a young age, it's too late for him
Jinpachi Mishima=>Heihachi Mishima=>Kazuya Mishima=>Jin Kazama. Kazuya's mother is Kazumi Hachijo, and Jin's mother is Jun Kazama. The little carving on the ground that they showed in the T7 opening is kind of the equivalent of the American heart carved into wood with initials of lovers inside. In this case it's Heihachi's name and Kazumi's name under an umbrella. It's visible in T2 on his stage.
12:13 the man who was in front of the church is Miguel, he is the son of a rich family, but he was always a rebel, so rebellious that he left home, but he always had respect for only one person, his sister, and that wedding you see there, it was his sister's wedding, he did not enter the church because his family did not want to see him, when the bomb fell, he went to look for her but as you can see it was too late, he swore revenge on jin for what he did.
Heihachi did cry in that last battle, it was very shocking for everyone, and the Trailer on Tekken 7 is much more cinematic because it has a Story Mode. I'll always love Tekken 5 Opening, I still have a PS2 because of this one!
If i recall correctly the Heihachi tear only appeared in the trailer and not in-game at that point. Also every Tekken game has a story mode(you could make the argument for t1-3 and the tag games). Personally Tekken 7 is my least favourite intro because it reuses alot of cutscenes from the story mode, whereas the other games it's all unique just for the intro.
I LOVE the Tekken Tag 2 opening. I just love Tag 2 in general. It's not a well balanced game, but my god is it a fun one. It has the best overall aesthetic/theming of any fighting game imo with the exception of Street Fighter 3. It also has the largest cast of characters of any Tekken game with 61 total, basically including almost every character in the series up to that point. Tekken's music is always fantastic but Tag 2 also steals the show for me as having the best overall soundtrack. I could gush about that game for hours. Easily my favorite Tekken to just play for fun, and one of my favorite fighting games of all time.
Are you my clone or am I your clone?! Because you're saying exactly what I've been saying about TTT2 for the past 10 years (yes, TTT2 is over a decade old). Best soundtrack, best intro, fun as hell back in the day.😅
There's just something about Tekken that makes me so hooked to its story, even though I don't think it's the best. I love the gameplay but the story is what really makes me come back every time it comes out. If it weren't for the story I wouldn't have spent hours and hours playing the game just to play Kazuya.
I freaking LOVE Kazuya, he's so badass Him joining Smash was very great, my all-time-Main The Story behind him, where he starts as the protagonist, but becomes one of the strongest villains is phenomenal Love your reactions, keep going u two ❤️🔥👍
The fact that Tekken still has a unique storyline really showed its premise throughout. From the triple disasters of Jin, Kazuya, and Heihachi to the side comedy of the animals.
That Tekken 4 intro really captivated my pre-pubescent brain back then. Guns, shooting, explosions, badass buff dudes, wicked fighting moves, a sexy woman, angry Japanese noises 7:25 :D Man it was so fun.
Yay! My favorite intros are Tekken 6 bloodline rebellion, Tekken tag tournament 2 and Tekken dark resurrection. 18:54 It's really subtle but Heihachi did shed a tear. 20:19 Yup Kazuya is Heihachi's son. And the dude who needed to unleash his power is Jinpachi (who is actually a very good guy), Heihachi's dad.
I started on Tekken Tag Tournament 1 on the PS2, and haven’t looked back since. This game was my childhood. I showed my friends this game, and it all bloomed from there. Tekken was also the reason that got me onto martial arts.
Most of the Tekken Videos were actually groundbreaking for the time, with state of the art technology and animation (f.e. Nina's hair in Tekken 2, the water in Nina's Cryo Awakening in Tekken 3, the water droplets on Fengs face in Tekken 5, and more). I also love the huge cast of characters, though since the gameplay shifted from amazing offline content to way too much focus on online gaming, I'm not in love with the series like I once was. Maybe 8 will give us offline fans some more things to do than gather SILLY FREAKIN OUTFITS NOBODY WANTS TO WEAR! I don't need a teddybear on my had that moves for christ sake, give us meaningful and cool outfits again like in Tekken 6, or have each one have about 15 costumes to unlock like the early Dead or Alive games that actually look different :D
9:35 This has to be my favorite Ken's reactions so far. He's just headbanging along with the "Sparking" (intro's name) where it gives some alternative Rock vibes in there such as "Smashing Pumpkins" "Hoobastank" or "Linkin Park" 💖💖
I’m so glad you looked at all of them! Tekken is one of my favorite fighting game franchise both in gameplay and lore. Lore being the most prominent since I’m not that good at fighting games, but I still enjoy it. I hope you guys will look at that lore video one day. The one I suggested last Friday. I can’t stress enough that that video is the best and fun way to get into the world of Tekken lore
It’s a little confusing at first but heihachi is kazuya’s dad and kazuya is Jin’s dad, the guy who had to unleash his awesome power in tekken tag 2 is Jinpachi who is heihachi’s dad
I love your reactions! It's nice to see reactions from people who may not have grown up with these games. You provide a fresh take on things and that's cool. So kazuya and his son jin look very much alike but you can notice the differences after u notice they are different people. Heihachi is the dude with the spikey grey hair he is the Grandfather in the family. His son is Kazuya Mishima who retains his last name. Kazuya is the black haired individual who wears a trench coat later in the series. Jin Kazama is the son of kazuya and the grandson of heihachi. He is the most youthful out of the 3 and is usually dressed in motorcycle attire. He doesnt retain the mishima name because he was raised solely by his mother Jun Kazama who instilled good hearted values in him which is why Jin fights on the side of good and is seperate from his evil family. Also the older dude who the taxi driver drops off at the red light district, he is the great grandfather of Jin. His name is Jinpachi Mishima, the father of Heihachi Mishima
Heihachi did indeed shed a tear in the Tekken 7 intro. In that story, he shows remorse for killing Kazuya's mother and attempting to kill his son through a retcon. Kazuya is Heihachi's son but your confusion is around Jin. Jin is Kazuya's son and Heihachi's grandson, so there are two separate bloodline rivalries going on with Heihachi. Jin and Kazuya have their own rivalry. One of the unique aspects of this relationship is that Heihachi and Kazuya are both very horrible people. They have moments where they're understandable and have some light inside them, but their overwhelming hatred for one another and mutual lust for power prevents them from reconciling. While most stories have a hero and a villain or an anti-hero stopping a villain, Tekken has two villains fighting one another with no hero to stop them. The only difference is that the game's alternate between which villain is the protagonist. Jin occupied the role of a hero for a time until Tekken 6 when he became an anti-hero. Tekken 8 is hyping the Jin vs Kazuya rivalry where we might see the end of all this demon blood madness.
It's weird, the trailers and intros made it seem like Heihachi showed remorse for how things turned out and Kazuya wanted to avenge his mother. Then in the actual story, neither of them actually give a shit.
YES, I've been hoping you did this. The theme to Tag is THE theme of Tekken as a franchise to me and I love these intros so much, the soul calibur ones are great too I hope you react to some ending compilations in the future, specifically T3, 5 and Tag 2 endings
So Bricky just uploaded a 40 minute video explaining every space marine legion if you guys are interested in some more 40k lore while having his comedic style.
If you knew or understand the lore behind each of the characters and the game itself then you would actually understand the meaning behind every Tekken game intro for the exception the tag tournament ones those are not canon in the Tekken game lore. You should check out a channel called History Behind The Warrior. He does lore videos for fighting games as well as God of war. This way you could know and understand the lore behind each character and their backstory.
There are two masked wrestlers wearing Jaguar masks called King I and King II, another two masked wrestlers wearing grey Jaguar masks and armour called Armor King I and Armor King II. There is also a bear called Kuma and his son called Kuma II.
This was cool, I think you guys will have a lot of fun watching all the ending movies you get for beating the main modes with each character in each game.
and a devolution starting from the 6 in terms of character design and martial arts aspect plus a turn to a complete fantasy real sadly 7 only had 2 cool characters a horrible(like srsly the master acts more like an angsty teen than the pupil wtf.) gender swap for a badass ninja,complete devolution for most older characters(to much focus on fluid clothes took away alot from the design team).So much could've been done better hope they do in the net gme if there is one.
It started out son vs father in Tekken & the son won. Tekken 2, the father came back for revenge. The son meets girl, falls in love and has a son. The woman who he fell in love with is also a fighter which teaches the son to fight which continues the cycle.
Tekken Tag 1 will always be my favorite followed by T3, T5, T7. I never got a chance to play TT2 sadly...but yea my favorite characters are Jun kazama and Hwoarang and Lili.
My favourite cutscene is still Wang's Tag 2 ending. Wang, Dr. B, Jinpachi, and Sebastian are all enjoying their time with a chill chat amongst grandpas. The crazy part? They're all speaking their native tongues. Wang is Chinese, Doc is Russian, Jinpachi is Japanese, Sebastian is from Monaco (French).
It’s Father vs Son with Kazuya and Heihachi, then Jin gets involved and now it’s Father vs Son vs Grandson Edit to add: Y’all should definitely check out the endings from Tekken 5, Tekken 6, and Tekken Tag 2
If you wanna know more about the history of Father and Son, I recommend you to check the Tekken 7 history mode, it's all about the Mishima's history since the beginning involving Akuma from Street Fighter. I think you'd love it.
Tag tournament was my first tekken when I was a child on the ps2 and my favorite to this day! I still own it actually sitting with my ps2 and other ps2 games haha
You'll love the story behind the Tekken series, I promise you. Plus, it's a lore story that someone did but couldn't figure out which youtube did it better of understanding. It hits hard, in tears for me that is lol. And to where she asked if Heihachi was in tears, yes, he was. Story hits hard. Also, I was so happy Yumi Hara voice someone I know that plays a big role in 7.
Ah, you're hitting up one of my favorite series today. I've played so much Tekken 7 online at this point, I've apparently made some of my friends quit playing entirely >.> So the only thing I have left is to teach my wife how to play (she already likes it but she wants to get better at it)
I still love the intro to Tekken 2 so much. It’s so 90s I love it. But honestly, Tekken 5 is by far my favorite intro. Maybe even my favorite game in the series.
Jin Kazama is the son of Kazuya Mishima and Jun Kazama and the grandson of Heihachi Mishima and great grandson of Jinpachi Mishima (seen in T5 and in TTT2 in the Taxi) Jin Kazama's cousin is Asuka Kazama, the girl with the bike in T5 and fighting against the blond hair girl called Lili in TTT2 the is an animated movie call "Blood Vengeance" which takes place between T5 and T6
Tekken is my favorite fighting game known to mans and when I tell you that when Tekken Tag 2 start playing. I just got a flashback of the GRIND that I put into Tekken! Now I’m out doing tournaments at local arcades to fight the best lol
My personal ranking for the intros: 1. Tekken 5 2. Tekken Tag Tournament 3. Tekken 4 4. Tekken 2 5. Tekken Dark Resurrection (does not appear in this video) 6. Tekken 3 7. Tekken Tag Tournament 2 8. Tekken 6 9. Tekken 1 10. Tekken 7
My Whole Child Hood. I love it. Still find it bloody incredible that Tekken holds the Guinness world record for Longest running Cohesive Story in Video Games.
Jinpachi is father of Heihachi who is father of Kazuya who is father of Jin. There are also Lee who is adopted by Heihachi to "replace" Kazyua and Lars who is Heihachi's illegitimate child.
For a bit of clarity on the father VS son story? It started between Heihachi and Kazuya. The latter wanting revenge on the former for seemingly killing his mother in cold blood, beating him within an inch of his life and throwing him down a cliff as a child. And then it continued between grandfather and grandson between Heihachi and Jin in the third game after the former betrays his own grandson via shooting him in the head after Jin proved no longer useful to him. And if that wasn't enough, Jin survived and learned the truth about his paternal family's bloodline, ultimately resulting in him and his father, Kazuya, clashing. The "curse" within the Mishima bloodline is a never-ending cycle of hate among the men in the family. The Devil Gene only served to further escalate things to a much more chaotic affair (as we later witness in the sixth game onward) as Heihachi, Kazuya and Jin are at war with each other. Jin is the one who truly wants to end this madness by ending his family's cursed bloodline by defeating/killing his grandfather and father. The saddest part here is that Jin also has intentions of killing himself once that's done to fully rid the world of the "cursed evil" that is his family. Also, Kazuya wasn't a complete bastard at the beginning, but his hatred and anger towards Heihachi, and the Devil Gene in him, is what ultimately turned him into the same monster as his father. He pretty much serves as a living example to his son on what he could turn into if he lets his Devil Gene and the cycle of hate consume him (we have Jin's mother, Jun, to thank for the guy's refusal to follow that same path).
When you watch it now and you are unfamiliar with the video game industry, these are just videos that keep looking better and better. But then it made an amazing impression. People couldn't believe video games could be so realistic. Tekken was graphically setting the standard.
I've been playing Tekken since the beginning and the story always keeps me coming back for more as well as the gameplay. The tear that came down Heihachi's face crushed me. The night he killed Kazumi he was already dead. Tekken 2 soundtrack is my favorite out of all the Tekken games. Emotionless Passion is Kazuya's theme. Its the best theme song out of them all in my opinion
The first two games is father and son (Heihachi and Kazuya). Tekken 3 is grandfather and grandson (Heihachi and Jin). And Tekken 4 onwards is all three. There’s also Lee, Heihachi adopted son and Lars, Heihachi bastard son. 😅 Tekken’s a great series lore-wise.
The two at the end were father and son, Heihachi and Kazuya. Their story is very good and this game put more background into Kazumi, Heihachi's wife and Kazuya's mother in Tekken 7. Heihachi loved them both deeply but Kazumi was actually a demon who is meant to kill Heihachi because if he lives, a chain of hatred will continue (through the Mishima bloodline and beyond) and he would eventually become a threat to the world. The mission in the game has you play as Heihachi going up against demon form Kazumi and it's a pretty intense and emotional fight where depending on whoever damages who a certain amount a character will speak their true feelings about the other. Heihachi winning the fight in the end and after Kazumi faking her death after a massive blow from Heihachi, she tries to kill him as he walks away but fails prompting Heihachi to grab Kazumi by her neck where she starts to plea and beg him to let her go and why she is doing this to begin with and tries to kill Heihachi again while his head is down. He then strengthens his grip around her neck before she can strike him as he says something along the lines of she's not his same Kazumi. He then snaps her neck and ends her life while shedding a single tear at his loss. All of this leads Kazuya, their son, to seek revenge on his father. Not long after the two fight and give us the iconic cliff scene, Kazuya was five years old btw. There's a lot that I didn't say about Kazuya and why akuma is even in Tekken 7 as that would be a full body essay so I seriously recommend you guys watch a breakdown of the Mishima lineage in a future video perhaps 🤙 Also as a side note, the writing engraved on the floor at 18:56 is their names "Heihachi and Kazumi" which to me shows that the two were very much in love with each other. Sorry for the long comment but if you stuck around to read it all I appreciate it 👌
Jinpachi is the father of heihachi,kazuya is heihachi’s son,kazuya’s son is jin there’s also a bunch of other relatives in the mishima family but most are dead.the other members that are alive are lee who is heihachi’s adoptive son,lars who I believe is an illegitimate child of heihachi,asuka who is jin’s cousin. The dead relatives are kazumi mishima who is kazuya’s mother and heihachi’s wife who was murdered by heihachi and jun kazama who is jin’s mother and was murdered by ogre.
Here's the family tree: 1: Jinpachi Mishima (he's the one that needed to "release" his power) 2: Heihachi Mishima (Jinpachi's son) and Kazumi (she's the one that says "my beloved Heihachi" in the video and also the one from whom Kazuya inherited the Devil gene) 3: Kazuya Mishima (Heihachi and Kazumi's son) and Jun Kazama 4: Jin Kazama (Kazuya and Jun's son, he Took his mother's last name instead of his father's)
20:20 Heihachi (the one with white hair) is Kazuya's father (the one with the red eye) and Kazuya is Jin's father (the one from death battle) Also, the guy on the taxi in the Tag tournament 2 intro is Heihachi's father They're all terrible fathers who's sons wants them dead
Nah Jinpachi is a good dad. He was trying to do right and prevent the company from doing black market activities. Heihachi attacked him and chained him up down under neath Honmaru temple to starve to death.
My favorite fighting game of all-time. There's even more story,that's in the game. I started back playing "Tekken 3. My favorite "Tekken is 5,and it has my favorite intro. I also own 7 it's amazing and Tekken Tag Tournament. I was very excited to watch these with you. Very intense and cool.
The old guy from the car is the oldest mishima, then its heihachi then kazuya and then Jin. Akuma apparently owed a life debt to Kazuya's mother and she told him that when her family starts destroying the world he was to step in and stop them.
Yes Tag Tournament 2 is my favorite as well but Tekken 7 comes close and Angel is my favorite character in Tekken History. But the Heihachi is the father of kazuya and jin is the son of Kazuya, Kazumi is the mother of Kazuya and wife of Heihachi
The greatest of all fighting games. Jinpachi (tekken 5 tekken tag 2) Devil Gene Dominant, wielded the Mishima Zaibatsu as a force of order. Heihachi (all) Son of Jinpachi No Devil Gene. Wielded the Zaibatsu as a tool for gaining power and standing. Kazumi (7) Wife of Heihachi, Mother of Kazuya. Lifelong friend of Gouki (Akuma). Hachijo Oni Gene Dominant. Kazuya (1-2 4-7) Son of Heihachi. Devil gene recessive, Hachijo Oni Gene recessive. Wielded the Zaibatsu as an absolute force, including biological weapon engineering and international crime. Jin (3-7) Son of Kazuya. Devil Gene Recessive, Kazama Gene Dominant. Wielded the Zaibatsu as a literal instrument of war, to draw out Azazel the Rectifier. Heihachi and Kazuya's reckless use of the Zaibatsu had caused so much misery that Azazel was on the verge of breaking free and causing a literal apocalypse. Because of the Kazama Sight given to Jin by his mother Jun, he had foreseen that Azazel would destroy all of humanity, and so he started a final war to break Azazel free... so he could kill him and secretly save humanity. The "what if" (sometimes not what if) endings to the home games actually cover a GREAT deal of this, you guys should def check them out. Video you guys missed: th-cam.com/video/8UlCsUZdofE/w-d-xo.html
Tekken 8 has just been announced not an hour ago. This was a perfect video to watch after it 💯 This is basically how the Mishima Family Tree goes. Heihachi+Kazumi=Kazuya. Kazuya+Jun=Jin The story goes like this. Just the tip of the iceberg. Heihachi fell inlove with Kazumi who has a split personality which is a devil which he didn't know at the time. She turned on him and tried to kill him but failed. Heihachi was beyond broken after that. Heihachi threw Kazuya on a cliff betting on two outcomes, if he dies from the fall, he is a normal human, if he survives he inherited his mother's Devil Gene in which he did (there was a brief scene in the Tekken 7 intro which you see a kid Kazuya on the ground). Kazuya never knew the reason why Heihachi killed Kazumi. He hated his father ever since. Akuma comes into the story to finish Kazumi's job on killing Heihachi and the Mishima bloodline. The Devil Gene went all the way to Jin Kazama, Kazuya's son. Which i assume that Akuma is still not done in the story since he only confronted Heihachi and Kazuya in Tekken 7. I believe in Tekken 8, they're bound to cross paths since it's his job to kill all Mishimas.
Tekken 1 had so many mixed talked especially about the rivalry between Paul and Kazuya as it was deemed ryu&Ken rivalry by many reasons...you could see why....till tekken 2 had a nice plot twist
You guys should DEFINITELY react to Tekken 6 all endings! Whole bunch of brief scenes ranging from comedic, dramatic, and tragic following all the characters in Tekken 6!
@1:41 @5:10 This is Jun Kazama(Jin's mother) from Kazuya Mishima (She "disappeared" and is thought to be dead after Tekken 2 but before tekken 3) Tekken fans are waiting for her to possibly return in Tekken 8 She is basically the only one who could stop the cycle of hate and vengeance of the Mishima family
Jinpachi Mishima ➡️ Heihachi Mishima + Kazumi ➡️ Kazuya + Jun Kazama ➡️ Jin Kazama The whole family literally is a personification of Hate, Resentment, Vengeance. Even Heihachi's illegitimate son, Lars Alexanderson, and adopted son, Lee Chaolan is entangled in the mess.
Kazuya is Jin's dad. That whole family is kind of a cycle of hate. They all start out with varying degrees of good intentions but get consumed with hatred for their fathers. Jin's been struggling with that the most. Starting off as a pretty good guy but he gets consumed by the devil gene more and more as the story goes on.
The only time when Jin is neutral is in Tekken 6. But man I feel bad for poor Jin. Imagine your father and grandfather wanting you dead
Four generations of hatred.
Tecnically now jin can control devil's gene
Kazuya wants to take the devil gene from Jin he actually has no intention of killing him now his father that's a different story and is hinted at still loving and missing jins mom since she helped him keep the devil gene in control and Jin still struggles to keep control Kazuya has full control Kazuya is just a shite father lol but he doesn't want Jin death just depowered in a since
@@EA-bv8zk also Jin wasn't neutral in 6 he started ww3
Tekken 5 intro was the best. Gave me goosebumps🔥🔥🔥🔥
Seriously
Same, it was the last one with a good old fashioned arcade opening that showcased loads of characters outside of the Mishimas
My childhood, I instantly remembered everything about it
The Angel that you see is the manifestation and the last remnant af Kazuya's good half and even that is getting corrupted. Of all the Mishima family Jin is the only one who wants to end all this madness, despite what happened to Kazuya at a young age, it's too late for him
😢
Jinpachi Mishima=>Heihachi Mishima=>Kazuya Mishima=>Jin Kazama. Kazuya's mother is Kazumi Hachijo, and Jin's mother is Jun Kazama. The little carving on the ground that they showed in the T7 opening is kind of the equivalent of the American heart carved into wood with initials of lovers inside. In this case it's Heihachi's name and Kazumi's name under an umbrella. It's visible in T2 on his stage.
We still need to know more about how do Kazumi and Akuma know each other and how did she save Akuma's life
Thanks for the lineage 🙂
12:13 the man who was in front of the church is Miguel, he is the son of a rich family, but he was always a rebel, so rebellious that he left home, but he always had respect for only one person, his sister, and that wedding you see there, it was his sister's wedding, he did not enter the church because his family did not want to see him, when the bomb fell, he went to look for her but as you can see it was too late, he swore revenge on jin for what he did.
Ah okay. Thanks for telling us about Miguel 🙂
Heihachi did cry in that last battle, it was very shocking for everyone, and the Trailer on Tekken 7 is much more cinematic because it has a Story Mode.
I'll always love Tekken 5 Opening, I still have a PS2 because of this one!
Man. Heihachi crying. He is human after all 😢
Same I love tekken 3 and 5
If i recall correctly the Heihachi tear only appeared in the trailer and not in-game at that point.

Gotta love the games that have just about every character in them 🤩 Armageddon gets a ton do love from MK community as well
This series has been my entire livelihood, the amount of changes it has gone through over time is insane.
Tekken Tag, 4, and 5 was my livelihood back in 2005-06. I must have seen those intros over a hundred times collectively.
😎🤟

True I love the story in tekken games
Even after all of these years, Tekken 2s intro is still my favorite game intro of all time.

I freaking LOVE Kazuya, he's so badass
Him joining Smash was very great, my all-time-Main
The Story behind him, where he starts as the protagonist, but becomes one of the strongest villains is phenomenal
Love your reactions, keep going u two ❤️🔥👍

🙂
That Tekken 4 intro really captivated my pre-pubescent brain back then. Guns, shooting, explosions, badass buff dudes, wicked fighting moves, a sexy woman, angry Japanese noises 7:25 :D Man it was so fun.
Yay! My favorite intros are Tekken 6 bloodline rebellion, Tekken tag tournament 2 and Tekken dark resurrection.
18:54 It's really subtle but Heihachi did shed a tear.
20:19 Yup Kazuya is Heihachi's son. And the dude who needed to unleash his power is Jinpachi (who is actually a very good guy), Heihachi's dad.
Thanks for clearing up the family dynamics 🙂
I started on Tekken Tag Tournament 1 on the PS2, and haven’t looked back since. This game was my childhood. I showed my friends this game, and it all bloomed from there. Tekken was also the reason that got me onto martial arts.

Most of the Tekken Videos were actually groundbreaking for the time, with state of the art technology and animation (f.e. Nina's hair in Tekken 2, the water in Nina's Cryo Awakening in Tekken 3, the water droplets on Fengs face in Tekken 5, and more). I also love the huge cast of characters, though since the gameplay shifted from amazing offline content to way too much focus on online gaming, I'm not in love with the series like I once was. Maybe 8 will give us offline fans some more things to do than gather SILLY FREAKIN OUTFITS NOBODY WANTS TO WEAR! I don't need a teddybear on my had that moves for christ sake, give us meaningful and cool outfits again like in Tekken 6, or have each one have about 15 costumes to unlock like the early Dead or Alive games that actually look different :D
Tekken 5 intro brings the hype
9:35 This has to be my favorite Ken's reactions so far. He's just headbanging along with the "Sparking" (intro's name) where it gives some alternative Rock vibes in there such as "Smashing Pumpkins" "Hoobastank" or "Linkin Park" 💖💖
I’m so glad you looked at all of them!
Tekken is one of my favorite fighting game franchise both in gameplay and lore.
Lore being the most prominent since I’m not that good at fighting games, but I still enjoy it.
I hope you guys will look at that lore video one day. The one I suggested last Friday.
I can’t stress enough that that video is the best and fun way to get into the world of Tekken lore
We will eventually get into the Tekken lore 🙂😇

Just in case, here's the video again:
th-cam.com/video/bA49WgGOKp4/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=ClementJ64
I miss being young and able to play these games in peace.
You guys should definitely do the characters endings, there's some pretty awesome ones.
This sure takes me back! Tekken Tag Tournament 2 is one of my favorites too 🥊
It’s a little confusing at first but heihachi is kazuya’s dad and kazuya is Jin’s dad, the guy who had to unleash his awesome power in tekken tag 2 is Jinpachi who is heihachi’s dad
We will eventually start to see the differences in the characters 😅🤗
I love your reactions! It's nice to see reactions from people who may not have grown up with these games. You provide a fresh take on things and that's cool.
So kazuya and his son jin look very much alike but you can notice the differences after u notice they are different people. Heihachi is the dude with the spikey grey hair he is the Grandfather in the family. His son is Kazuya Mishima who retains his last name. Kazuya is the black haired individual who wears a trench coat later in the series. Jin Kazama is the son of kazuya and the grandson of heihachi. He is the most youthful out of the 3 and is usually dressed in motorcycle attire. He doesnt retain the mishima name because he was raised solely by his mother Jun Kazama who instilled good hearted values in him which is why Jin fights on the side of good and is seperate from his evil family. Also the older dude who the taxi driver drops off at the red light district, he is the great grandfather of Jin. His name is Jinpachi Mishima, the father of Heihachi Mishima
Ah okay. Always confuse Jin and Kazuya. At some point we will be able to tell them apart 😅
Heihachi did indeed shed a tear in the Tekken 7 intro. In that story, he shows remorse for killing Kazuya's mother and attempting to kill his son through a retcon.
Kazuya is Heihachi's son but your confusion is around Jin. Jin is Kazuya's son and Heihachi's grandson, so there are two separate bloodline rivalries going on with Heihachi. Jin and Kazuya have their own rivalry.
One of the unique aspects of this relationship is that Heihachi and Kazuya are both very horrible people. They have moments where they're understandable and have some light inside them, but their overwhelming hatred for one another and mutual lust for power prevents them from reconciling. While most stories have a hero and a villain or an anti-hero stopping a villain, Tekken has two villains fighting one another with no hero to stop them. The only difference is that the game's alternate between which villain is the protagonist.
Jin occupied the role of a hero for a time until Tekken 6 when he became an anti-hero. Tekken 8 is hyping the Jin vs Kazuya rivalry where we might see the end of all this demon blood madness.
It's weird, the trailers and intros made it seem like Heihachi showed remorse for how things turned out and Kazuya wanted to avenge his mother.
Then in the actual story, neither of them actually give a shit.
I can’t wait for the Arcade Edition, especially Tag 2
YES, I've been hoping you did this. The theme to Tag is THE theme of Tekken as a franchise to me and I love these intros so much, the soul calibur ones are great too
I hope you react to some ending compilations in the future, specifically T3, 5 and Tag 2 endings
So Bricky just uploaded a 40 minute video explaining every space marine legion if you guys are interested in some more 40k lore while having his comedic style.
If you knew or understand the lore behind each of the characters and the game itself then you would actually understand the meaning behind every Tekken game intro for the exception the tag tournament ones those are not canon in the Tekken game lore.
You should check out a channel called History Behind The Warrior. He does lore videos for fighting games as well as God of war. This way you could know and understand the lore behind each character and their backstory.
My favourite fighting game franchise of all time. This franchise, specifically 5, showed me just how cool video games can be.
The all time GOATed ones for me will always be Tekken Tag 1 and Tekken 5
😎🤟
There are two masked wrestlers wearing Jaguar masks called King I and King II, another two masked wrestlers wearing grey Jaguar masks and armour called Armor King I and Armor King II. There is also a bear called Kuma and his son called Kuma II.
This was cool, I think you guys will have a lot of fun watching all the ending movies you get for beating the main modes with each character in each game.
Plan to check those out at some point 🙂
every tekken game shows the evolution of graphics of the generation with the intros.
and a devolution starting from the 6 in terms of character design and martial arts aspect plus a turn to a complete fantasy real sadly 7 only had 2 cool characters a horrible(like srsly the master acts more like an angsty teen than the pupil wtf.) gender swap for a badass ninja,complete devolution for most older characters(to much focus on fluid clothes took away alot from the design team).So much could've been done better hope they do in the net gme if there is one.
Tag tournament 1 was the first game I ever played, the series has a special place in my heart
Yuuus... Love the Tekken series and when Kazuya made into Smash Bros, best day for me. Glad to see a reaction vid for this
😎🤟🥳
It started out son vs father in Tekken & the son won. Tekken 2, the father came back for revenge. The son meets girl, falls in love and has a son. The woman who he fell in love with is also a fighter which teaches the son to fight which continues the cycle.
I always loved how Heichachi was just going nuts at 8:44... None of them could touch him lol
Hey! I'm loving these Tekken reactions
Tekken Tag 1 will always be my favorite followed by T3, T5, T7. I never got a chance to play TT2 sadly...but yea my favorite characters are Jun kazama and Hwoarang and Lili.
YT's most charismatic couple. Love you two. 🥰♥️
🥰😊🤗
My favourite cutscene is still Wang's Tag 2 ending.
Wang, Dr. B, Jinpachi, and Sebastian are all enjoying their time with a chill chat amongst grandpas.
The crazy part? They're all speaking their native tongues.
Wang is Chinese, Doc is Russian, Jinpachi is Japanese, Sebastian is from Monaco (French).
Tekken tag 2 opening always brings back so many memoires, me and my bro could not wait to play it!
Jin is the Grandson of Hehachi and Son of Kazuya, and Jinpachi is Hehachi's father or stepfather (the big guy who also in the Limo)
It’s Father vs Son with Kazuya and Heihachi, then Jin gets involved and now it’s Father vs Son vs Grandson
Edit to add: Y’all should definitely check out the endings from Tekken 5, Tekken 6, and Tekken Tag 2
And then Jinpachi was added, so it's grandfather vs father vs son vs grandson
😎👍🙂
If you wanna know more about the history of Father and Son, I recommend you to check the Tekken 7 history mode, it's all about the Mishima's history since the beginning involving Akuma from Street Fighter. I think you'd love it.
Such a great series hehe, love Nina, Kazuya, Asuka, Lee so many ^^
You two should watch Tekken Tag Tournament 2 all endings 😌❤️
We do plan to check those out eventually 🙂
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames YESSS :3
tekken 5 is the most iconic intro so far in my opinion.
Tag tournament was my first tekken when I was a child on the ps2 and my favorite to this day! I still own it actually sitting with my ps2 and other ps2 games haha
You'll love the story behind the Tekken series, I promise you. Plus, it's a lore story that someone did but couldn't figure out which youtube did it better of understanding. It hits hard, in tears for me that is lol. And to where she asked if Heihachi was in tears, yes, he was. Story hits hard. Also, I was so happy Yumi Hara voice someone I know that plays a big role in 7.
5 the last best tekken story
I'm team Heihachi because he is badass and a very good character itself.
😎🤟 nothing wrong with that
ive been waiting for this one and it was worth the wait. keep it up yall :)
Tekken 5 have the best intro for me
Good gawd I’m old.
I remember all of these growing up.
Any who thanks for the trip down memory lane.
I love the Tekken intros! (they have arcade intros if you want to react to it.) And dang Ken, I never knew you can read subtitles 😂
Ah, you're hitting up one of my favorite series today. I've played so much Tekken 7 online at this point, I've apparently made some of my friends quit playing entirely >.>
So the only thing I have left is to teach my wife how to play (she already likes it but she wants to get better at it)
*Relationship goals
“She wants to get better” translates to she wants to beat you for real in the game 😜
You guys have to react to the tekken blood vengeance , it's very well animated and the action is on point
My thoughts exactly
I still love the intro to Tekken 2 so much. It’s so 90s I love it. But honestly, Tekken 5 is by far my favorite intro. Maybe even my favorite game in the series.
That was Nina in the deadpool chamber
Jin Kazama is the son of Kazuya Mishima and Jun Kazama and the grandson of Heihachi Mishima and great grandson of Jinpachi Mishima (seen in T5 and in TTT2 in the Taxi)
Jin Kazama's cousin is Asuka Kazama, the girl with the bike in T5 and fighting against the blond hair girl called Lili in TTT2
the is an animated movie call "Blood Vengeance" which takes place between T5 and T6
Tekken is my favorite fighting game known to mans and when I tell you that when Tekken Tag 2 start playing. I just got a flashback of the GRIND that I put into Tekken! Now I’m out doing tournaments at local arcades to fight the best lol
My personal ranking for the intros:
1. Tekken 5
2. Tekken Tag Tournament
3. Tekken 4
4. Tekken 2
5. Tekken Dark Resurrection (does not appear in this video)
6. Tekken 3
7. Tekken Tag Tournament 2
8. Tekken 6
9. Tekken 1
10. Tekken 7
Thanks for sharing your rankings 😀
My Whole Child Hood.
I love it.
Still find it bloody incredible that Tekken holds the Guinness world record for Longest running Cohesive Story in Video Games.
Y'all need to react to all the CarbotAnimations of Elden Ring. They are the peak of humor and relatability.
Jinpachi is father of Heihachi who is father of Kazuya who is father of Jin.
There are also Lee who is adopted by Heihachi to "replace" Kazyua and Lars who is Heihachi's illegitimate child.
✅
15:55
Angel's Face reaction is what I came for. :D
For a bit of clarity on the father VS son story?
It started between Heihachi and Kazuya. The latter wanting revenge on the former for seemingly killing his mother in cold blood, beating him within an inch of his life and throwing him down a cliff as a child.
And then it continued between grandfather and grandson between Heihachi and Jin in the third game after the former betrays his own grandson via shooting him in the head after Jin proved no longer useful to him. And if that wasn't enough, Jin survived and learned the truth about his paternal family's bloodline, ultimately resulting in him and his father, Kazuya, clashing.
The "curse" within the Mishima bloodline is a never-ending cycle of hate among the men in the family. The Devil Gene only served to further escalate things to a much more chaotic affair (as we later witness in the sixth game onward) as Heihachi, Kazuya and Jin are at war with each other. Jin is the one who truly wants to end this madness by ending his family's cursed bloodline by defeating/killing his grandfather and father. The saddest part here is that Jin also has intentions of killing himself once that's done to fully rid the world of the "cursed evil" that is his family.
Also, Kazuya wasn't a complete bastard at the beginning, but his hatred and anger towards Heihachi, and the Devil Gene in him, is what ultimately turned him into the same monster as his father. He pretty much serves as a living example to his son on what he could turn into if he lets his Devil Gene and the cycle of hate consume him (we have Jin's mother, Jun, to thank for the guy's refusal to follow that same path).
When you watch it now and you are unfamiliar with the video game industry, these are just videos that keep looking better and better. But then it made an amazing impression. People couldn't believe video games could be so realistic. Tekken was graphically setting the standard.
Tekken 5’s intro is GOATed to this day that spicy guitar play that comes in is *chefs kiss*
5:55 i remember seeing this in the arcade and my friend remarks 'Heihachi got that jacket from the Lost World'.
I've been playing Tekken since the beginning and the story always keeps me coming back for more as well as the gameplay. The tear that came down Heihachi's face crushed me. The night he killed Kazumi he was already dead. Tekken 2 soundtrack is my favorite out of all the Tekken games. Emotionless Passion is Kazuya's theme. Its the best theme song out of them all in my opinion
9:35
The greatest intro in arcade history
It is taboo to skip this
The first two games is father and son (Heihachi and Kazuya). Tekken 3 is grandfather and grandson (Heihachi and Jin). And Tekken 4 onwards is all three. There’s also Lee, Heihachi adopted son and Lars, Heihachi bastard son. 😅 Tekken’s a great series lore-wise.
The two at the end were father and son, Heihachi and Kazuya. Their story is very good and this game put more background into Kazumi, Heihachi's wife and Kazuya's mother in Tekken 7. Heihachi loved them both deeply but Kazumi was actually a demon who is meant to kill Heihachi because if he lives, a chain of hatred will continue (through the Mishima bloodline and beyond) and he would eventually become a threat to the world. The mission in the game has you play as Heihachi going up against demon form Kazumi and it's a pretty intense and emotional fight where depending on whoever damages who a certain amount a character will speak their true feelings about the other. Heihachi winning the fight in the end and after Kazumi faking her death after a massive blow from Heihachi, she tries to kill him as he walks away but fails prompting Heihachi to grab Kazumi by her neck where she starts to plea and beg him to let her go and why she is doing this to begin with and tries to kill Heihachi again while his head is down. He then strengthens his grip around her neck before she can strike him as he says something along the lines of she's not his same Kazumi. He then snaps her neck and ends her life while shedding a single tear at his loss. All of this leads Kazuya, their son, to seek revenge on his father. Not long after the two fight and give us the iconic cliff scene, Kazuya was five years old btw. There's a lot that I didn't say about Kazuya and why akuma is even in Tekken 7 as that would be a full body essay so I seriously recommend you guys watch a breakdown of the Mishima lineage in a future video perhaps 🤙
Also as a side note, the writing engraved on the floor at 18:56 is their names "Heihachi and Kazumi" which to me shows that the two were very much in love with each other. Sorry for the long comment but if you stuck around to read it all I appreciate it 👌
Tekken 5 is still my favorite
you should react all the endings of all this characters, some of them are just amazing
Ahh that Tekken 5 Intro brings back such great memories. I would love to see a Raven comeback.
Hm, i recommend doing either all Dead or Alive Intros, all Soul Calibur Intros or all Persona Openings next.
You guys need to watch the cutsceens from 7, they are absolutely gorgeous.
Jinpachi is the father of heihachi,kazuya is heihachi’s son,kazuya’s son is jin there’s also a bunch of other relatives in the mishima family but most are dead.the other members that are alive are lee who is heihachi’s adoptive son,lars who I believe is an illegitimate child of heihachi,asuka who is jin’s cousin. The dead relatives are kazumi mishima who is kazuya’s mother and heihachi’s wife who was murdered by heihachi and jun kazama who is jin’s mother and was murdered by ogre.
My First Tekken Game i played was Tekken 4 when i went to the Arcade a While back! You all know what i mean
Tekken 4 underrated
😎🤟
my god this brings so much memories
You might like watching the Tekken arcade endings. The endings in 1 and 2 are kinda rough but 3 onward are absolute gold
the memories of these games
Here's the family tree:
1: Jinpachi Mishima (he's the one that needed to "release" his power)
2: Heihachi Mishima (Jinpachi's son) and Kazumi (she's the one that says "my beloved Heihachi" in the video and also the one from whom Kazuya inherited the Devil gene)
3: Kazuya Mishima (Heihachi and Kazumi's son) and Jun Kazama
4: Jin Kazama (Kazuya and Jun's son, he Took his mother's last name instead of his father's)
20:20 Heihachi (the one with white hair) is Kazuya's father (the one with the red eye) and Kazuya is Jin's father (the one from death battle)
Also, the guy on the taxi in the Tag tournament 2 intro is Heihachi's father
They're all terrible fathers who's sons wants them dead
Nah Jinpachi is a good dad. He was trying to do right and prevent the company from doing black market activities. Heihachi attacked him and chained him up down under neath Honmaru temple to starve to death.
I wish me from your both "parasite eve" cutscenes:D
I love your reactions!
My favorite fighting game of all-time. There's even more story,that's in the game. I started back playing "Tekken 3. My favorite "Tekken is 5,and it has my favorite intro. I also own 7 it's amazing and Tekken Tag Tournament. I was very excited to watch these with you. Very intense and cool.
The old guy from the car is the oldest mishima, then its heihachi then kazuya and then Jin. Akuma apparently owed a life debt to Kazuya's mother and she told him that when her family starts destroying the world he was to step in and stop them.
Yes Tag Tournament 2 is my favorite as well but Tekken 7 comes close and Angel is my favorite character in Tekken History. But the Heihachi is the father of kazuya and jin is the son of Kazuya, Kazumi is the mother of Kazuya and wife of Heihachi
The greatest of all fighting games.
Jinpachi (tekken 5 tekken tag 2) Devil Gene Dominant, wielded the Mishima Zaibatsu as a force of order.
Heihachi (all) Son of Jinpachi No Devil Gene. Wielded the Zaibatsu as a tool for gaining power and standing.
Kazumi (7) Wife of Heihachi, Mother of Kazuya. Lifelong friend of Gouki (Akuma). Hachijo Oni Gene Dominant.
Kazuya (1-2 4-7) Son of Heihachi. Devil gene recessive, Hachijo Oni Gene recessive. Wielded the Zaibatsu as an absolute force, including biological weapon engineering and international crime.
Jin (3-7) Son of Kazuya. Devil Gene Recessive, Kazama Gene Dominant. Wielded the Zaibatsu as a literal instrument of war, to draw out Azazel the Rectifier. Heihachi and Kazuya's reckless use of the Zaibatsu had caused so much misery that Azazel was on the verge of breaking free and causing a literal apocalypse. Because of the Kazama Sight given to Jin by his mother Jun, he had foreseen that Azazel would destroy all of humanity, and so he started a final war to break Azazel free... so he could kill him and secretly save humanity.
The "what if" (sometimes not what if) endings to the home games actually cover a GREAT deal of this, you guys should def check them out.
Video you guys missed:
th-cam.com/video/8UlCsUZdofE/w-d-xo.html
Yes Bethany... heihachi did shed a tear.....but not this cutscene oddly....he shed it in story mode before the fight.....
Tekken 8 has just been announced not an hour ago. This was a perfect video to watch after it 💯
This is basically how the Mishima Family Tree goes.
Heihachi+Kazumi=Kazuya. Kazuya+Jun=Jin
The story goes like this. Just the tip of the iceberg.
Heihachi fell inlove with Kazumi who has a split personality which is a devil which he didn't know at the time. She turned on him and tried to kill him but failed. Heihachi was beyond broken after that. Heihachi threw Kazuya on a cliff betting on two outcomes, if he dies from the fall, he is a normal human, if he survives he inherited his mother's Devil Gene in which he did (there was a brief scene in the Tekken 7 intro which you see a kid Kazuya on the ground). Kazuya never knew the reason why Heihachi killed Kazumi. He hated his father ever since. Akuma comes into the story to finish Kazumi's job on killing Heihachi and the Mishima bloodline. The Devil Gene went all the way to Jin Kazama, Kazuya's son. Which i assume that Akuma is still not done in the story since he only confronted Heihachi and Kazuya in Tekken 7. I believe in Tekken 8, they're bound to cross paths since it's his job to kill all Mishimas.
Tekken 1 had so many mixed talked especially about the rivalry between Paul and Kazuya as it was deemed ryu&Ken rivalry by many reasons...you could see why....till tekken 2 had a nice plot twist
You guys should DEFINITELY react to Tekken 6 all endings! Whole bunch of brief scenes ranging from comedic, dramatic, and tragic following all the characters in Tekken 6!
@1:41 @5:10 This is Jun Kazama(Jin's mother) from Kazuya Mishima
(She "disappeared" and is thought to be dead after Tekken 2 but before tekken 3)
Tekken fans are waiting for her to possibly return in Tekken 8
She is basically the only one who could stop the cycle of hate and vengeance of the Mishima family
tekken 5 intro makes me cry. what a good memories bro
Jinpachi Mishima ➡️ Heihachi Mishima + Kazumi ➡️ Kazuya + Jun Kazama ➡️ Jin Kazama
The whole family literally is a personification of Hate, Resentment, Vengeance. Even Heihachi's illegitimate son, Lars Alexanderson, and adopted son, Lee Chaolan is entangled in the mess.
