TEKKEN 8 DEVIL HEIHACHI SERIES
As most of the episodes take place in Cusco, Peru, Gavin Hignight has said that the staff in charge of the series were capable of recapturing the feeling of such country, most importantly when Jin reaches it. He called Jin's story tragic, as the initially innocent character develops negatively over the series and ultimately is saddened at his transition to a devilish form. Miyao claimed that some of the show's battles were difficult to animate due to the necessity of faithfulness to the original games. Game designer Katsuhiro Harada was involved in the project and stated that he enjoyed the story of Jin's life. All episodes were written by Gavin Hignight, while the series' director was Yoshikazu Miyao. As a result, the anime creates its own story which was not present in older installments of the franchise. As the series is based on Tekken 3, the story focuses on the origins of Jin Kazama and his upbringing under his mother Jun, which is not explored in the original material due to the difficulty of storytelling through video games. The producers explained how the staff tried to be faithful to the original narrative of the franchise by having the characters perform several moves from the games and using audio snippets from the games. The series was created as an homage to the third title in the Tekken franchise, Tekken 3. On March 19, 2022, Netflix announced that they would release the series on August 18, 2022. As Xiaoyu and Hwoarang’s pleas reach his ears, Jin flies away to an unknown point. Jin easily subdues Heihachi and nearly kills him. Jin finds his mother on his road to the afterlife, but his Devil Gene awakens and revives him in a demonic form with black feathered wings. Jin manages to defeat Ogre with the help from Xiaoyu, Hwoarang, Paul and Julia, but he is killed by Heihachi in the aftermath as it is revealed that Heihachi feared that he would become like his father. Angered by Jin's pacifism, Heihachi challenges Jin to prove he is the winner of the tournament, but their fight is interrupted by Ogre's reawakening. He also befriends Julia Chang and the tournament veteran, Paul Phoenix. For the next match, Jin abandons the Mishima values as he also befriends another fighter and fellow high school student, Ling Xiaoyu, who reminds him of his mother's methods, as well as earning a friendly rivalry with Hwoarang. In the King of Iron Fist tournament, Jin becomes conflicted about his violent style after breaking one of his rivals' legs. Jin inherited the Devil Gene from his father, which attracted Ogre to his home. Heihachi killed Kazuya in the previous tournament to stop him from ruining the world. After four years of training, Heihachi begins the King of Iron Fist tournament where Jin will compete to draw out Ogre.įollowing his arrival in Cusco for the tournament, Jin learns that his father is Kazuya Mishima, a martial artist with the power of Devil. Heihachi takes an interest in Jin and trains him in the more violent Mishima style of martial arts in order to avenge Jun, instructing Jin to drop the pacifist methods of the Kazama Style. Following the instructions given in her last words, Jin meets with his grandfather, a businessman and martial artist named Heihachi Mishima. One day, the ancient demon Ogre attacks their home, ultimately leading to Jun's death.
Jin Kazama is a young martial artist living with his pacifist mother, Jun Kazama, on Yakushima Island. The style and quality of the show's animation were also questioned. The series received mixed responses as a result of its short length, providing little screentime to most characters besides Jin and instead emphasizing fight scenes. It was directed by Yoshikazu Miyao, who wanted to properly show Jin's tragic story. The series was produced as a coming-of-age story of Jin, something that game series director Katsuhiro Harada wanted to emphasize, since Tekken 3 did not highlight Jin's past. The show premiered on Netflix on August 18, 2022, for a total of six episodes. Jin's quest leads to him being trained to track Ogre by his violent grandfather Heihachi Mishima, who is hosting a fighting tournament called the King of Iron Fist. The series loosely adapts the events of the 1997 video game Tekken 3 and follows the young fighter Jin Kazama in his quest to defeat Ogre, the creature that killed his mother Jun. Tekken: Bloodline is an action fantasy anime television series based on the video game series Tekken by Bandai Namco Entertainment.
