Hachijo vs. Kazama clan?

Reina was revealed as a devil gene holder herself. It is now possible that the Hachijo clan has not been entirely wiped out. They are a clan who are holders of the devil gene, as stated by Kazumi in T7. I'm so damn curious about the lore of this clan to be honest 👀 Imagine a whole ass family tree of devil gene holders

👁️👄👁️

Also, Lili mentioned only the main branch of the Kazama clan being wiped out. The sub-clans of the Kazamas are still there (Asuka and her dad) and it seems all from the Kazama bloodline hold purification powers (Asuka T5 ending).

Is there a possibility of a set-up for a Hachijo vs. Kazama clan war in the future Tekken series?

Let me know your thoughts!

BIG INFO ON KAZUJUN! I REPEAT! BIG INFO ON KAZUJUN!

Apparently, the japanese subtitles of Jun's narration of her character episode described Kazuya as her husband.

How and when the fck did they have time to have a wedding and get married? What?

This MAYBE just seen in my shipping lenses but did Kazuya ever teach Jun his Wind God fist back when they were together in T2???

So there's one dialogue during Kazuya vs. Jin no devil gene fight that caught my attention. When Jin was using the Kazama style martial arts, he mentioned it as "half-baked moves." Now you'd be thinking, doesn't this contradict him admitting that Jun is strong in his character ending?

At first, that's what I thought. Then I remembered that maybe Kazuya was treating the moves by Jin as half-baked cause he'd never see him as strong or as good as Jun yet in the Kazama-ryu arts?

I remember from a comic where Kazuya berates Jin for being not even half the fighter that Jun was. That's how much Kazuya highly regarded Jun.

In conclusion, he wasn't berating the Kazama style itself but the Kazama style that Jin does against him cause he doesn't think his son lives up to the Kazama-ryu arts.

I had a fcking hunch Reina was a Hachijo clan member when her eyes turned red in the rubble.

Also, she seems to be doing this to avenge Heihachi. Damn she was his fave and doted on child??

Reina is confirmed a daddy's girl 😩 but it seems Heihachi did not know Reina also had the devil gene cause if he knew he most likely would've killed her like he did with Kazuya.

Ok besides us knowing that Kazuya actually cares for Jun more than he'd ever admit, the fact that he acknowledges her as STRONG is such a HUGE THING. Ya'll know how Kazuya sees everyone around him besides himself as weaklings and pathetic, even Jin. And he'd said he doesn't concern himself with those he considers weaklings, he has never been with another woman besides Jun 😌

Also, even if it was a non-storyline canon ending, it's canon in a way that it shows the canonical motivation, mindsets, and perceptions of the characters.

The Jinxiao shippers are the ones with unlimited food like??? Harada really said to the jinxiao shippers "Tonight, we feast!"

Jin just casually dropping off his bike to pick up Xiaoyu is such a bf thing to do 😭

⚠️TEKKEN 8 SPOILER (HEAVY)⚠️

I love this ending so much, your honor🙏

KAZJUN CRUMB IN KAZUYA'S ENDING?? NO FUCKING WAY

[heilymaw]

i'm reading it right now and except for the fact that the guy has a gentle and straightlaced guy facade, this is kinda like Kazujun in another life

Kazujun AU

#im invested #Tekken #im now curious abt Jun's actress lol #this kazuya&jin getting along is giving me the dopamine i need

Actor AUs are one of my favorite things. Get rid of all the drama and tragedy for a moment and just be some Guys Hanging Out. So I was very glad to see actor AU brainworms elsewhere and especially with such cool art to go along with it!!

funnily enough, actor aus arent something im usually super drawn to! this one just came to me and the visual potential of jin and kaz acting completely opposite towards each other as in canon was too funny to pass up. that said, its actually become rather heartwarming as well! i love the fake relationship ive made in my head, so ill add some additional "headcanons" under the cut! (and of course tysm for the compliment ♥)

masanori (kazuya's actor) and isshin (jin's actor) are the only people in the cast actually related, the rest of the mishima/kazama clan is cast purely for looks and believability (as well as performance of course)

isshin's casting was a BIT of nepotism, sure, but he was also an up and coming actor who would be perfect for the role, so he was the first choice. like his father, he's REALLY good at his job

isshin and hwoarang's actor actually get along super well, and unlike masanori having to fight his son, they actually enjoy their character's rivalry a lot

masanori and heihachi's actor get along very well too! he's a veteran actor who used to play hero types but gets cast in more villainous roles as he got older. hes a good guy lol

for masanori and isshin's first scene together (the final confrontation in tk4), they actually had to take breaks between shots because masanori is a baby who cant take hearing his baby boy say such terrible things to him sdhfjkndsf. honey, youve got a BIG STORM COMING

masanori absolutely hates the makeup time it takes for his devil scenes, and the one he had to sit through for 7 nearly had him going insane. isshin was sympathetic but also laughing at him a lot

despite this, isshin is actually even MORE restless than his father, and thats part of the reason devil jin is designed with much less prosthetics

isshin's mother died when he was a child, so masanori has raised him on his own for the better part of his life. incidentally, he might actually end up marrying jun's actress lol?

(this is me speculating on 8 or probably after but) they both knew jin's introduction would lead up to his taking over the series from kazuya completely one day, but masanori's final day on set was a lot rougher than they expected. they actually both ended up really upset lol
