For those who wonder why coffee, Peru won 1st, 2nd and 4th place as the best international coffee, which is why it is classified as having the best coffee in the world; This award is recent, so few of us are aware of it. I hope, like my Peru, to see other countries integrated into this saga that marked my childhood.

[@Artemisarrowzz]

Uno esperaría que lo asociaran con literalmente cualquier otra de las 9 mil cosas asociadas con Perú (Incas, ceviche, llamas, etc), no.... café. Por más que digan "ES QUE PERU GANO-" si, me alegro de verdad, pero es lo que la gente piensa no en café cuando trata de recordar algo icónico del Perú. Se siente como asociar a Brasil con el maté o algo. Pero bueno, al menos los japoneses hacen el esfuerzo lol

Te lo pongo así: el diseñador japonés odió tanto la comida y bebida tradicional peruana que escogió lo más genérico de latam y lo único que pudo tolerar de su gastronomía para que representase al personaje. Ya no suena tan genial ¿no crees?

@@Artemisarrowzz nadie en su sano juicio odiaria la comida y bebida de peru, es demasiado exagerada tu comparativa, menos un japones que, por los que conozco aca en el pais, son los que mejor reseñas dejan de los lugares y la comida, azucena quiza es solo una pantalla para dar a conocer el cafe peruano, que no tiene nada de malo, a mi tambien no me gusto que el cafe se un concepto repetitivo en el personaje, pero por lo menos se respeto artisticamente la cultura peruana. Ademas, siendo sincero no es que los asiaticos sepan demasiado de culturas prehispanas, menos aun de sudamerica, asi que es un esfuerzo amable que hayan usado a perú y no a mexico como es de costumbre, al igual que en overwatch 2, illlari si mal no recuerdo tambien es peruana y ahi se generaliza un poco mas nuestra cultura, con frases en quechua y modismos particulares, lo hermoso de todo esto es que peru esta mucho en el ojo del mundo y de internet, lo cual me fascina.

Azucena here in the Philippines (Asosena) takes a different meaning. It's a cooked dog (Aso=Dog, -sena Spanish suffix) usually eaten by drunkards in remote areas of the country. It's a taboo so only a few lunatics eat and cook dogs here. Glad to see it has a beautiful meaning in most Spanish speaking country.

I am from Peru and the fast and fluid movements of the dodge mix the saya with the dance of the scissors and the hard blows are based on a Peruvian Martial art called Rumi maki (stone hand) that tries to knock out the opponent with one blow.

[@Claus.7]

Azucena is a freshly brewed character filled with energy! (Literally.) I'm happy Peruvians are getting some love with this bold, yet sweet new addition to the Tekken roster. As a Puerto Rican, I couldn't help but notice that the English subtitles are... a _little_ embellished. I didn't realize the English subtitles in these Tekken 8 trailers were like this until an Italian pointed it out in Claudio's trailer, and as Azucena speaks Spanish, it definitely stood out to me just how localized these subs are. These embellishments aren't in the Latin American version of the trailer; it's actually a literal closed caption of what's being said except for Lili's part, which is a Spanish translation of the English subtitles used for Lili's dialogue. So, for any anyone that's interested in what Azucena is really saying, here's a translation down below along with timestamps! 🇵🇪 0:28 • *The coffee queen is here!* "¡Soy la reina del café!" - _I'm the queen of coffee!_ 0:40 • *My turn, huh? Okay, get ready for a show!* "¿Es hora de entrar? ¡Aquí viene el espectacular de Azucena!" - _Is it time to go in? Here comes Azucena's spectacular!_ 1:36 • *The tastiest drink in the world is coffee, or nothing!* "¡El café es la bebida número uno en el mundo!" - _Coffee is the number one beverage in the world!_ 2:10 • *I can do this all day!* | *How do you take your coffee?* "¡Vamos a divertirnos!" | "¡Por aquí!" | "¿Tienes café?" - _Let's have fun!_ | _Over here!_ | _Do you have coffee?_ 2:25 • *Not had your morning coffee yet?* "Necesitas más café." - _You need more coffee._ 2:32 • *Coffee is second to none!* "¡El café es lo mejor!" - _Coffee is the best!_ *Special Note:* A spectacular is an event such as a pageant or musical, produced on a large scale and with striking effects, i.e., an extravaganza. Azucena is the Spanish name for the _Lilium candidum_ (known in English as the “Madonna lily” or “white lily”). The name Azucena rose to prominence during Moorish Spain and ultimately derives from the Arabic words _‘abyad_ (meaning “white”) and _zanbaq_ (meaning “lily”).

I Genuinely Appreciate You Taking the Time to Break This Down, Found Your Post Way More Informative Then I Expected, Keep It Up!

[@reneeruiz1708]

YES! I'm so happy I found someone else in the comment section talking about this. As someone who's Mexican, I was sitting there the entire time reading the subtitles, scratching my head, and going "that's not what she said though??". I can understand localization changes, but additions to things she said like "or nothing!" when she basically said the phrase "the tastiest drink in the world is coffee!" seemed to make the sentence sound more awkward in English for no reason. No hate against Tekken, I just find these changes really fascinating!

[@ValentinoMarino11]

@@reneeruiz1708Same the Spanish was messing with me a little bit. Is that how the Peruvian dialect is?

[@Danimal4114]

I was wondering about the subs, cuz the little Spanish I know just didn't match what I was reading... Btw, can you make out what she says when she dodges? While dodging the grabs of Paul and King, jumping away from Bryan and ducking under Leroys kick, she says something and I can't for the life of me make out what it is... Edit: Not gonna swear on it but after listening a few times, it does sound like 'Omitido' or something very close to it. So, when she evades her opponents attacks, she says, to their face, that they 'Missed'.... Not gonna lie, I like her even more if this is the case!

[@disruptor6550]

Thanks a lot for this comment! I know some Spanish and I immediately noticed that what she was saying was not the same as in the subtitles. But I couldn't figure out like 50% of the things. So thanks a lot for the help! :)
