The Insane Lore of Tekken Reaction

That feeling when Heihachi has apparently at the least 9 confirmed kids. out of ALL of them. (Kazuya, Lee, Lars, the new kid Reina, his grandhcild Jin) the FUCKING Bear was the only one he loved.

About Jun Kazama, it was never confirmed that she actually died. It's that Jin thought she did. In fact, Harada said that she went missing years ago. But now it's been confirmed that she's alive when she finally returned in tekken 8 after 25 years of being absent in cannon games after tekken 2.

As someone who played all the games (including games that featured tekken characters) and even watched the films this has got to be the best breakdown of the franchise i have seen. Fun fact Lars from tekken 6 was playable in naruto ultimate ninja storm 2.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Nice to know that other experts agree with this breakdown of the lore 🙂

[@TeamTowers1]

I think the key point with Heihachi is that as bad as he is, he does posses at least have some standards that he tries to stick to (even if he is willing to break them when push comes to shove), generally views hurting people for the sake of hurting them as beneath him and has at least enough humanity left to somewhat regret what he became. Kazuya despite having a more sympathetic backstory is much more evil then Heihachi, having none of his dads more redeeming qualities and makes everyone suffer because he enjoys it.

[@amuro9624]

Heihachi's evil deeds comes from a stoic look at life, basically "I do what must be done" but kazuya's comes from spite.

@wwemusicfanC Even Kazuya's Tekken 2 bio says he made a point to be worse than Heihachi. So that's not a new depiction of him. He hates everything about Heihachi, including the way he would pretend to be a decent person, so Kaz decided to be even worse than Heihachi and not bother hiding it. Hei does what he does for power, Jin does what he does for the greater good, Kaz does what he does out of nothing but spite. And the ultimate answer is at the end of T7. What does Kaz do, when all his enemies are seemingly dead and he's won? He just carries on with the war despite there being no credible enemies left to fight it against. Because the end he causes misery and suffering for, is misery and suffering in of itself.

[@iklantloin4593]

Heihachi actually really loved Kazumi.. that despite being out of self-defence he was really heartbroken over it

[@MsKeylas]

exactly. Heihachi was hardened to a cold , ruthless man by his life and all that happened to him, so he tries to protect the world only way he knows how.

There's another reason why Anna went into cryostasis other than missing her sister. She realized that she would grow old while Nina would stay young until she woke up again.

BONUS: My favorite Tekken characters are Kazuya, Paul, Yoshimitsu and Jun.

He forgot to mentioned the reason why Akuma was put in Tekken 7. Is because of SF X Tekken, namco decided to make Tekken X SF but one of them flopped so they cancelled the project.

I was waiting for him to mention the ridiculous connections Lars had. Lars appeared on Naruto and his Rage Art on Tekken 8 was his Ultimate Jutsu from the Naruto Ninja Heroes Storm game (forgot which of the storm games), and that he's the one who called Noctis from FF15 to appear on Tekken 7.

[@AlexThat200]

Another game series and a guest character who had nothing to do with the story of the Mishima's. So the probability of mentioning them wasn't there. Sorry. And to be fair, I don't think Clement plays Naruto games a lot, so he probably wouldn't know that cameo. Especially since Lars looks in that game aren't very identical to his Tekken ones. Final Fantasy I'm not too sure on, but I'm gonna assume he's one of those retro guys who at least heard of and/or played Final Fantasy 7.

Also if you watch the character trailers for the new Tekken 8, the story once again will get more crazy. With the return of one specific character that will once again gets entangled with the Father-Son feud. And who's better than the mother herself. Which brings me back to why this video never mentioned Asuka's non canon ending in Tekken 5 but actually had huge potential in the canon plot. She somehow shown her ability to cleanse away the devil gene, unconsciously (which brings back Jin from its Devil Jin form). Which might be an innate ability of the Kazama clan aside from sensing spirits and sht.

Maybe Kazumi betraying and trying to kill him and then him having to kill her, left him broken (it can be seen in the cutscenes that he was left devastated after he killed Kazumi). Maybe that started it all. And it went on like a chain reaction. Oh and between the Williams sisters, even though both of them are terrible, Anna was always the better one morally somehow.

As I expected. Enjoyed how much you were paying attention to all the details and laughed at all the weird stuff. And all the discussions in between each part was engrossing to listen to. Tekken is such an enjoyable franchise for me and many others. And the lore of everything has kept me hooked on the characters. Even though Jin is at this point, an irredeemable person, I still love his design, fighting style, and I just want him to beat his dad. Now just to let you know, from Tekken 6-7, Clement wasn’t kidding when he said he had to cut out of lot of stuff for brevity. That includes all the new characters he didn’t introduce because they had no relevance to the Mishima story. So if you ever have plans to look at Tekken 6 or 7 endings, then I suggest looking up a photo the characters as well as a quick synopsis from the wiki to get a general idea of what they’re about. Or I can just DM you on Discord what they’re about so you have a quick list. And I’m so happy that Clement has been booming ever since this video. He posted right after Tekken 8 reveal trailer came out, so he was incredibly lucky to have so many people watch his video. And not too long ago, he posted another “Insane” lore video about Street Fighter(excluding Street Fighter 6 cuz it just came out during that time, so the video itself is a primer for those that want to know the lore before 6), and he plans on releasing another one about Mortal Kombat on September. I would definitely recommend those if you really enjoyed this one. I will be now be doing weekly suggestions of something else, but it’s a lot more manageable than a +1 hour video. But I will start doing that next week. Really enjoyed watching your guys’ journey through Tekken. ❤️🔥

Would totally recommend the guy's "Insane Lore of Street Fighter" as well. Unlike Tekken, SF's lore isn't as straightforward so a video like it really helps.

[@manhtuongnguyen7241]

You will know it is Tekken when a character got thrown down at the mountain or volcano 👍

[@s.o.c.c.5027]

My first time seeing this got me as well. I grew up playing and watching Tekken related games and anime. I love this game.

[@RoseSennin]

I'm just so happy Clement is having people react to his videos. Like yeah it was unexpected but deserved in my eyes.

[@Webbman76]

I've been watching him over 12 years now. Back when he just did Sonic and Mega Man LP's. It's kind of crazy to see how popular he's gotten in the last year or so.

[@thetruej7872]

​@@Webbman76 Me too bro. Been watching him for years.

[@Step43099]

Same

[@THENAMEISQUICKMAN]

Next one on the list for me is having people react to Thorgi's Arcade and his Build the Roster series. Those are ALWAYS fun.

[@thetruej7872]

@@THENAMEISQUICKMAN That's also a good idea

[@lee2245]

Man that was awesome i love Tekken, knowing all this still i watched it. Thank you guys for reaction.

[@RostovII]

In Tekken 5 Roger Jr performs the moves and his mother mimics it, that's why technically who is acting and deciding the direction of the fight is Roger Jr not his mother.

[@banshotenin1178]

1:53:52 is so cool as you both scratch ur face in synchronization!

[@kageokami99]

As a Lili main, it pains me to see Lili's story arc devolve into nothing but her obsession with fighting Asuka. There was a point where she was actively working against the Mishimas and was more than ready throw hands with them at the drop of a hat. Now her storyline is just "Hm, how can I get Asuka to fight me today?" Don't get me wrong, I love their rivalry/frenemy relationship but that shouldn't be the only aspect to her OR Asuka's stories.

[@corryjamieson3909]

Well at least the shippers got some fuel to burn.

[@Ratchetfan321]

Love this video. CANT WAIT FOR TEKKEN 8

[@JMartini810]

The Great Clement !! I say Aloha !!! He's the best ! Also love you both reacting to this !!

[@jhun787]

15:50 lol

[@88rixadzin88]

When I play Tekken with friends (which doesn't happen often as I was the only one that grew up with Tekken) and I get Eddie (or one of his clones) I just put down the controller. Never played as Eddie, and never will.

[@youngprince7820]

Tekken 8 is coming next year hopefully.

[@DanielRaez93]

I always thought what would happen if Steve meets Anna.

[@mintmasters7018]

You should do the Street Fighter one next from Clement Cause i really enjoyed this reaction

[@TheDarkknightrules92]

Glad you're reacting to this. ❤

[@ojay4923]

I've been waiting for this reaction for over a year now! 😆

[@arx3516]

The only reason why G corporation recovered Kazuya's body was to use his devil gene to develope a cure for male baldness.

[@AlexandruCatrina-bk6jg]

1:43:40 2 twins 2:02:53 hey did you saw eggman?

[@NicoMambino]

Love Tekken! Very happy to watch this 😊

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Glad you enjoyed it! We are looking forward to checking out stuff from Tekken 8 in future 🙂

⚠KING, in the 1st TEKKEN, used a Jaguar Mask who would transform him into a Jaguar-Man! This is related to an south american jungle myth of a old jaguar mask who would possess who wears it, giving him strength and senses beyond the human capabilities - but also the behaviour of a jaguar like, killing other animals (including people) to feed himself.❗ I remember this from an old Documentary about it, that i saw on TV when i was a little kid. And in TEKKEN 1, once King puts on the Jaguar Mask, he's transformed into a upright-full-tailed Jaguar-Man.😉

If you want to know more about the Williams sisters you should watch “Nina & Anna Williams | Tekken Theory and Lore” by Awp Williams

[@RPGNoobGamer]

so, Tekken 6 Jin just makes the Mishima Zaibatsu into USA, starting shit wherever just for more power.

[@TresBS1]

I'm gonna elaborate a little more on Tekken 6's Azazel and Nancy, on WHY they're so BAD. They both are fighters that whose matches are HEAVILY stacked against you. Worse yet, you will see them in every arcade ladder for each character. Bear with me here, this might take bit: Nancy- It's got 10x the health of a normal fighter. It also has a move where it cuts a hole in the floor, which if you fall into you automatically lose. Worse still, because it's so big, it's hard to tell what the robot is doing. Plus, you can't grab or grapple it due to its size. But on top of that, you have a time a limit. Now normally in a fighting game, if time runs out, the fighter with the most health wins. But with Nancy, you still lose, even if you have more health. Oh, and despite being a "Bonus Stage" (meaning that winning or losing the fight doesn't actually stop your progress), losing to Nancy goes on your record as a loss. Azazel- Hits hard and hits fast. He has attacks and moves for all ranges. He can grab you but is immune to grabs. He also has moves that are completely unblockable. He has no real pattern and can do anything at anytime. But the worst part of it all, Azazel can block and attack at the SAME TIME. Azazel is immune to attacks except for a small period of time when he goes to attacks. Thing is...there's not way for you to know when that time is. There's no indicator or sign telling you when it's safe to attack him. The only way I ever found to hit him was to rapidly spam combos that are so naturally fast that you can do to multiple times in quick succession. These two broke the rules of the game as no else as any of these features.
