My Predictions For Tekken 8 Heihachi

[@moxdegiourno7984]

he will now have a 111111 string combo and his heat smash is him throwing a kid at you

[@BSJINTHEHOUSE420]

Before Heihachi comes back, they have to change Kazuya’s Patricide Fist to just Fist.

[@newhybrid101]

No.He DID kill him,this was reconfirmed by Harada recently after the reveal. The question is if he is being RESURRECTED or its something more complicated But its still the patricide fist. There was also a patchislot that showed his burning corpse looking charred.

[@tacitozetticci9308]

Dw. Kazuya will show off the anti-resurrection fist in the new story chapters.

[@newhybrid101]

​@@tacitozetticci9308Fr,this Heihachi is seemingly conjured from Reinas ritual. If Kazuya and or Jin as a team kill it then it will propably turn to dust like Jinpachi(which would be kinda cool)

Having the classic Twin Pistons in heat would be simultaneously the most awesome and most terrifying thing for Heihachi to have.

Didn't even seem like the shape of a fist,and he only had that mark in that specific scene of the trailer. And it glows magically? Yeah something is off

[@user-dj9hh7ww7c]

@@newhybrid101 isn’t shaped like a fist? Brother it has 5 divisions, 4 parallel to each other and one on the bottom right, with the last one having it’s low end towards the center and the upper part outwards, it literally resembles exactly a fist from a punch using the left hand, exactly the same one Kazuya killed him with. And of course it’s only visible in that specific scene, it’s the only one where his chest is clearly visible, even in earlier shots his cross scar is barely visible because of his clothes, and the cloth around his neck covers the upper part of his chest, exactly where the fist mark is.

[@subaraz]

[@nabedesu7708]

My guess on otgf is its not gonna immediately bound but rather launch like usual. Kazuya tgf didnt bound on hit, only during juggling so there might be hope it wont bound instantly like jin db1+2,1. Another guess is for heat engager he probably gonna have df1,2, 1+2, (or f1+2), b2 or ss1+2. Ws1 might still knockdown but he might gonna have new ws move (i.e ws1+2 if it might be a thing). His pokes and mids in general maybe will work like usual. His CH launcher has a high chance to be like usual too. Maybe he will get new low or if he dont, he probably can cancel db2 for a crouch mixup like kazuya. Lastly his rage drive probably will be available in heat (b2,1+2 string) and perhaps guaranteed omen after it hits after heatdash.

[@HoDoBoDo]

@@newhybrid101 I figured that since the DLC Story is titled "Mishima Resurrection", and Kazuya did 100% kill him, but I believe Reina and the Tekken Monks are going to do a ritual to bring him back.

[@newhybrid101]

​@@HoDoBoDoYeah, however i think something is seriously wrong with it. Heihachi doesnt feel like himself,in Tekken 7 he was serious and solem,here he looks demonic,possessed and constantly smirks.The younger hair,the glowing symbol on his chest and so much more. And a mask? Since when would Heihachi Mishima hide his face,who puts his face in EVERYTHING. Anyone that thinks this is the exact same Heihachi we know is kidding himself

[@HoDoBoDo]

@@newhybrid101 People have pointed out that the colour grading is why his hair looks like that. It's actually still gray. Also the reason why I think Heihachi is so different personality wise might be due to a theory that he is in a hosts body from the Tekken Monks, and has adopted one of the Monks traits of being mysterious and narcissistic. It's possible that Lidia's Dad (Despite being stated to be canonically dead), could be Heihachi's new host. Who knows, it's just theories rn. We'll see in September once the story drops.

As in t7 dlc being too strong and t8 dlc being not as strong?

[@bubuvel]

His Return really makes me Question if Kazumi may be alive too, Heres a theory! What if Kazumi was pregnant during her death? After her death Heihachi might have froze her into Cryosleep In order to experiment with her power and that way Reina was born aswell which can be why Nina recognized her during their fight, Nina was also kept in cryosleep before so she may recognize her from there. How else could Reina have the devil gene If Kazumi is basically the origin of it all along with Azazel. Kazumi may be alive after nearly half a century. Heihachi’s mask in his Tekken 8 Trailer resembles Kazumi’s tiger! Also Kazumi’s aura is most definitely orange based on the Tekken 7 special fight, also the color of the winter character is orange and also, Kazumi was born in winter. so does it cause any thoughts?

[@Trap_senpai_]

1, B2 gotta be +1 on block 💯🤷

[@BlackPegasusBP]

I'm also worried they could "Jinify" him, Iron Grandpa would be my second main too. I didn't particularly like fighting Jin in T7, but I could at least respect a good Jin player, now I just roll my eyes whenever I meet one. Which means if I strapped a generator to my eyeballs, I could produce enough electricity to run my PC

[@d-jams]

I think Jin is in a fine place. I secondary him, but it's only because I play Kazuya, but I agree he's easy, but if you come across a good Jin, it's not as scummy as someone like Draganouv or Eddy.

[@tacitozetticci9308]

@d-jams you can say T8 "Jin" is in a nice place, but the problem is that the actual Jin is gone. He was basically removed from the game, it doesn't matter if his replacement is okay.

[@onyroo]

Hopefully he has the most glorious Rage Art in the game. All the Mishima's have a cool Bankai domain expansion trump card finishing move.

[@NakedGhost3234]

He's gonna summon a volcano and throw people into it and the volcano will spew them back out afterwards (incase the combo doesn't kill them lol)

[@CertifiedMVP]

seeing how they're handling DLC's so far. Get ready to be disappointed if you're expecting Heihachi to be top tier or very strong character. Not asking for the Pay2win approach but why a character like Alisa is light years stronger than Eddy and Lidia?

[@ArchieGamez]

Even lidia got tiny nerfs yesterday lol

My good guess on making him a strong character and to make him different from the Mishimas is that he will be adding a few more moves by his old man. Jinpachi Mishima. If they do, get ready for one heck of PTSD.

[@mccollio0909]

112 being a heat engager confirmable would be my best guess. Which would be so powerful to start in these mechanics. Would make so much sense to differentiate from other mishimas already, which which change the very essence of his neutral

Harada said they are not going back on the 7th game being the end of the Kazuya and Heihachi rivarly. That game is still the end of it If its the real Heihachi(which i doubt cause he seems demonic) he is likely gonna calm down after he sees Kazuya isnt a demon anymore. He only threw him off the cliff cause he saw him as an abomination and not a human and in Tekken 2 what if ending he protects Kazuya after he seperates from Devil and becomes human again. In 7 he also accepted his fate once Kazuyas eye wasnt glowing red anymore and he used human willpower to win,he just stood proud and waited for the end
