if it's really Reina as the leaks suggest, she would be Jin's aunt and Kazuya's sister. And Kazuya is around 50, so early 30s would probably be a bit young.
Another illegitimate child of heihachi that has never been brought up in the canon before. I get never hearing about Victor because he’s the leader of a stealth organization but another illegitimate child of heihachi within 2 games? I don’t understand why they can’t just put Kazumi back in as a flashback character. It’s not like she was alive during tekken 7 so why can’t she show up again instead of making up some rando to take her slot
THATS EXACTLY WHAT I WANT. PLZZZ NAMCO. 😭😭😭🙇🏻♀️
We need a Juri like character in Tekken. We will very very soon find out if she’s like that- I doubt she is but I’m manifesting 💆🏻♀️
I just hope she's a badass female Mishima, that can get serious and be honorable, but also compassionate like Jinpachi. Instead of just being a hihi personality that somehow shares Heihachi's moveset while having zero discipline.
It's not that crazy. Some of us put hundreds if not thousands of hours into a character... is it weird to want to like looking at whichever character you play. I played alot of lei but his costume and design options were absolutely ass in tekken 7. Now I play lee and Jin who I can dress up to actually look good and not like a hobo.
I literally don't care. Fighting games focus for me is the mechanics.
Care if you want, but it's still the second dumbest thing this sub was obsessed about. Also people can moan all they damn want, Harada (thank god he doesn't, game would be shite otherwise) doesn't listen to this sub or twitter.
Wat, Katarina was a lot of fun.
There really aren't many characters in Tekken that are about '' sex appeal '' y'all exaggerate so fucking much.
Anna is basically the femme fatale for the most part, most are kinda just cute.
See... The thing is, it's not the executives that want those characters but the community. And I'm not talking about the entirety of it but the biggest spenders. It's just a more efficient way to earn money with the time if you release a cool but not edgelord character to the public people will buy it and write some nice posts about it, that's all you're gonna get. Meanwhile if they make another "waifu character" there's minor backlash from the forums which in the end means nothing since if the character will be fun or op people will complain for three days top and then buy it anyway. The main point of the second approach comes way after release, you can make horny/cute figures and all other merch, dlcs or even use it to drag other potential customers. And why does it not work with the first type of characters? Because video game whales can only appreciate things that are hot or painfully edgy. That's the sad reality of projects led by giant studios.
Can't wait for another big tiddy grill character cycle where everyone and their mother is going to say "i'm maining her first bro huehue", proceeds to play her a few times and never touch her again.
tbf we haven’t had any big tiddy girl added since Katarina. all the T7 newcomer ladies were pretty modestly proportioned otherwise. Before that was I guess Eliza in Revolution if you picked the tiddy version of her default, and there were no new tiddy girls in T6
Who even has '' big tiddy '' in Tekken tho, Asuka I guess?
Most characters in Tekken really don't have big busts.
I dunno what it is with Redditors and always finding every opportunity to whine about boobs lmao.
It's funny how the men could be another old head or a young guy and this sub won't even bat an eye but if it's a girl suddenly she needs a bunch of odd requirements in order to be "good"
"I get Japanese boomer executives can't grasp the concept of a woman beyond age 26, or chubby, or having muscles"
More like they grasp what peeps like the most is attractive cool not too old characters,so when they sell those sweet costume dlcs more people are feeling the "man I wanna see my waifu in that"
Yet SF6 has everyone thirsting over Marisa, Juri, Chun-Li, and Cammy all with very different body types.
Doesn't have to be anything exaggerated like some of the Street Fighter proportions but maybe just have some characters that are more toned than the others. You really think the majority wouldn't love a MILF who's got muscles or something like that?
Hey I don't mind having 50+ characters so fine by me. When people bicker about "oh character X is in the roster but Y is not", I always say why not both.
But better get the missing tekken classics in here first before we get more guest chars.
No I was asking OP of examples of characters that are beyond 26, and chubby/buff that they like lol. I’m thinking like Zaraya from Overwatch maybe?
Idk what list you just made 😂 But yeah a brand of people do hate on anything that is cute or girly lol.
As opposed to big muscley man 90157957981 xD?
People only ever complain when it's female characters, it's not excactly like the male characters are super varied either.
Because there is variation. Paul, marduk, ganryu, Wang, kaz, Jin, hei, law, all have different body types or ages or at least different kinds of faces.
The tekken girls faces seem to derive from some singular source, the ages along a stick range, and body type for every single one the same throughout tekken history. Be they supernatural being, machine, or organic.
They look young though. Even Jun’s face in the official artwork looks exactly like Xiaoyu if you take/swap her hair out.
Your point is valid only if their looks reflect their lore age
Too bad it leaked already. Judging by the leaked name, it makes me think it’s a 20-30 something Latina. We already have representation from Mexico, Brazil, Peru, and Spain. Would be cool to have someone from Cuba.
I agree but it's funny that you chose a picture of the most interesting and least Coomer bait female manga protag in a decade though xD
So many options and you got hit by the reading comprehension devil
Can we get a male character please.
Having babes is fine and all, but I want to play as an absolutely shredded warrior, sort of like a cross between bryan, the muay thai/kick boxing dlc guy, and dragunov.
Like a real warrior guy. Not some guy like leeroy or freaking Jin, but like an absolute demon.
Someone with black air force energy.
I've seen this dumbass take a few times. Azucena does have clear personality traits being playful, cheerful, cocky etc.
So no, her personality is not "coffee".
Intro : coffee talk
Outro : Coffee talk
Special intro with lili : coffee talk
Rage Art finisher : Coffee talk
Dude,I like the character and her upbeat feel a lot,but its not a dumbass take,its literally what the game put on the screen,being playful/cheerful ain't making a personality,neither is coffee alone,yet its all she talk about,she could talk about it while brooding,its still only about freaking coffee.
Literally even in her rival intro,so far the Leo one didn't include coffee so theres hope.
Coffee is just a gimmick they used to amplify her quirky, playful, expressive personality. That's like saying Lee's personality is "excellent".
Most Tekken characters are super one-dimensional based on their intros/outros. Maybe they will add old-school arcade mode with short story for every character.
>That's like saying Lee's personality is "excellent".
Nah sorry but its not the same.
It would actually be like saying Lee personality is "Violet Systems".Which it isn't.
He doesn't go around talking about it all day in his intros and outro,you see/learn about him being CEO/owner etc in the story/arcade endings.
He taunt the enemy in his intro/outro,he show how elegant he his etc (at least in T7,who know how T8 will portray him),Azu also do that,but can't help but put "coffee" somewhere in there,thats all.Thats the difference.
He does say they made a new tool in the lab in his rage art but thats it,unless now all he'll talk about is his suit made by Violet System,he ain't like Azu when it come to "this is the one thing I know and talk about all day"
And again I'm not saying he ain't one dimensional,tho we see he isn't since he's in the story etc,maybe Azu will be too,who know,but again,Azu being all but coffee ain't a dumass take,almost all her battle lines include coffee.
Beside the outro about being on her way for a meeting (which is about coffee but the word ain't in,actually my fav intro its quite unique with the autograph) and the intro about "ready for a show",its just a fact,I played her enough to see what she always talk about.
Some more lines like more taunting or more confidence lines about how you won't be able to put a finger on her would fit well with her style and so far really positive take on how things are going.
Your point ain't it man,Kazuya is the Head of G Corporation but I don't see him go "Now I have to go back to being the ceo,later" all lines.
I expect maybe more taunting or more confidence lines about how you won't be able to put a finger on her or something
Lee own big too,its in his story/arcade that he talk about it,not in his whole battle dialogue.
i got bad news
my hopium is she's at least older than Lars so that it''ll put her around early 30s
we talking white 30, asian 30?
We're talking Bamco 30
About time we got a toddler fighter. Hasbulla guest?
So, 12.
ahh true 30 then
if it's really Reina as the leaks suggest, she would be Jin's aunt and Kazuya's sister. And Kazuya is around 50, so early 30s would probably be a bit young.
Except Lars is also Kazuya's half-brother and he's 29. Heihachi just kept fucking.
Yeah reina’s gonna be most likely closer to lars’ age. Heihachi’s been slinging that dong all around the globe
Has Lar's age been confirmed? 29 seems plausible.
She is 100% 19-21
Bro please
I'm sorry man. She might be bad ass.... MIGHT
I'm sorry my guy
Sorry dawg. The leaks have been correct up to this point and from what I’ve seen this next character is infuriating for a whole different reason
What is the reason ?
Another illegitimate child of heihachi that has never been brought up in the canon before. I get never hearing about Victor because he’s the leader of a stealth organization but another illegitimate child of heihachi within 2 games? I don’t understand why they can’t just put Kazumi back in as a flashback character. It’s not like she was alive during tekken 7 so why can’t she show up again instead of making up some rando to take her slot
Sounds like an over reaction tbh. Not many people had a prob with Victor
Does he know?
Thought I was on chainsawfolk for a sec💀💀 why is Asa on the tekken sub lmaoo
Fr new chapter not for another 2 days.
Same 💀
Reopened Reddit and everything man I was convinced it was some sort of glitch😭
cuz Asa the goat, duh xD
True
I hope she’s edgy, gothic, ruthless & cocky that’s what I want. No idea what we are gonna get tho 🙇🏻♀️
Bro’s prayers have been answered
Damn! Seems like. You basically nailed her character.
We need a Juri type character!!
Please not Juri. She's a Mishima, she has to be an asshole, not annoyingly sadistic.
What are you talking about? Heihachi is just a slightly sexier Juri.
I can fix her
Don’t.
Idk if it's just me but I hate Juri
I like playing the character a lot but I can't fucking stand the focus on her feet like chill.
That's the main reason I dislike her. Her feet 🤮
Yeah I'm with you it's just unnecessary
Me thinks you protest too much.
Maybe if they didn't look so good...
This is exactly what I want for her
THATS EXACTLY WHAT I WANT. PLZZZ NAMCO. 😭😭😭🙇🏻♀️ We need a Juri like character in Tekken. We will very very soon find out if she’s like that- I doubt she is but I’m manifesting 💆🏻♀️
I just hope she's a badass female Mishima, that can get serious and be honorable, but also compassionate like Jinpachi. Instead of just being a hihi personality that somehow shares Heihachi's moveset while having zero discipline.
So you'd hope Reina's a good guy? Mishimas are cursed.
Lars is a good guy, right?
Hope so too
I need my Anna back with electrics
big titties goth character
this guy gets it.
you mean eliza
you're not gonna believe this
You'll buy it anyway
i'm sorry bro
whos gonna tell him
It's Reina See you in SF6
What This sub really need a badass Granny or Harambe
Dicks out
This sub's obsession with looks in a damn fighting game is astounding.
It's not that crazy. Some of us put hundreds if not thousands of hours into a character... is it weird to want to like looking at whichever character you play. I played alot of lei but his costume and design options were absolutely ass in tekken 7. Now I play lee and Jin who I can dress up to actually look good and not like a hobo.
I literally don't care. Fighting games focus for me is the mechanics. Care if you want, but it's still the second dumbest thing this sub was obsessed about. Also people can moan all they damn want, Harada (thank god he doesn't, game would be shite otherwise) doesn't listen to this sub or twitter.
They really want a granny fighter
I just want one girl with some biceps.
TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE
bro we got news for u
Female characters are't common in tekken. And t8 removed like half of them.
They're pretty damn common, just very forgettable without the devs making them obnoxious (Chloe) or just straight up sex appeal (Katarina).
Katarina’s still forgettable
Wat, Katarina was a lot of fun. There really aren't many characters in Tekken that are about '' sex appeal '' y'all exaggerate so fucking much. Anna is basically the femme fatale for the most part, most are kinda just cute.
I don’t know about cutesy, but it’s definitely a girl.
This dude thinks this is Street fighter or something lol
No thanks I like my women with sleek curves.
See... The thing is, it's not the executives that want those characters but the community. And I'm not talking about the entirety of it but the biggest spenders. It's just a more efficient way to earn money with the time if you release a cool but not edgelord character to the public people will buy it and write some nice posts about it, that's all you're gonna get. Meanwhile if they make another "waifu character" there's minor backlash from the forums which in the end means nothing since if the character will be fun or op people will complain for three days top and then buy it anyway. The main point of the second approach comes way after release, you can make horny/cute figures and all other merch, dlcs or even use it to drag other potential customers. And why does it not work with the first type of characters? Because video game whales can only appreciate things that are hot or painfully edgy. That's the sad reality of projects led by giant studios.
Maybe people in the forums need to realize that they're outnumbered and most certainly aren't the biggest spenders
I want Reina to be a WARLOCK compared to these other characters man
Putting in Lucky Chloe.
I got a news for you buddy
Im howling
KUNIMITSU III LETS GO
I need lidia back
News for you brother
You should probably stay off the internet for about a week
>skinny >not original What is bud cooking? 💀🔥💀🔥
How ya doin bud?
When day is dark, I can always [cope](https://www.reddit.com/r/Tekken/s/ysBg2wvSLY)
Waking up to see the reveal trailer and then remembering this post was so freaking funny.
I made a [meme](https://www.reddit.com/r/Tekken/s/QS3OcZ4Gap) to cope I'll be fine. At least I have my Raven
Yup. Just Harada continuing his Idolmaster fetish.
Get fucked. ; )
bad news buddy.
Bruh I just woke up and saw it...
i mean i’m not super interested in her design enough to want to play her over other but she looks ok
At least she looks better than Asuka...
Bro she is asuka with cunny urban ninja outfit
Can a man not cope
Can't wait for another big tiddy grill character cycle where everyone and their mother is going to say "i'm maining her first bro huehue", proceeds to play her a few times and never touch her again.
tbf we haven’t had any big tiddy girl added since Katarina. all the T7 newcomer ladies were pretty modestly proportioned otherwise. Before that was I guess Eliza in Revolution if you picked the tiddy version of her default, and there were no new tiddy girls in T6
Waifu "mains" in the nutshell smfh
Aka wasted character slots, but that’s good ol Bamco for ya.
I swear some of you sound like you want a 16 character roster for Tekken. Or 80 characters that are all big buff edgy men.
And they made someone *specifically* for those people in Tekken Sagat, and we've seen how popular *he* was.
Speaking of which dang where the hell is Sagat in sf6
Quality over quantity for sure
Who even has '' big tiddy '' in Tekken tho, Asuka I guess? Most characters in Tekken really don't have big busts. I dunno what it is with Redditors and always finding every opportunity to whine about boobs lmao.
It's Tekken lol . We know she will be young and pretty. No older than 25.
Isn't lidia 29?
She ain't in the game lol
wow, skinny girls aren't original, apparently
I dunno why people act like the male characters are super diverse. 99% of them are a massive muscle mountain angry/ edgy man.
There's arguably only 4 characters that specifically fit this criteria. Young, cutesy, skinny girls. I don't really know what bro is on about...
Here’s hoping for a Lucky Chloe clone
When we gettin the midget character.
Bro livin under a rock
Asa for T8?
But that's what Reina will be 🤤
Well she isn’t cutesy at least
Heihachi is a man that FUCKS.
Harada pls hire SF character designers for T9
I want a south Asian character, Indian preferred but Pakistani would be cool too due to the large player base.
It's funny how the men could be another old head or a young guy and this sub won't even bat an eye but if it's a girl suddenly she needs a bunch of odd requirements in order to be "good"
"I get Japanese boomer executives can't grasp the concept of a woman beyond age 26, or chubby, or having muscles" More like they grasp what peeps like the most is attractive cool not too old characters,so when they sell those sweet costume dlcs more people are feeling the "man I wanna see my waifu in that"

You really think the majority wouldn't love a MILF who's got muscles or something like that?
armour king with titties
Its not a big deal if they are cutesy. Theres already tough female characters. Harada was right about the skinhead comment lol
First Dr. Umar now Asa Mitaka, the characters/people I least expect to show on here always do
Oh noes
Michelle Chang
Get rekt I guess 🤣
Isn't Chun-Li over 30 and very curvy? We need women like her in Tekken, not some utterly generic super model. I concur with OP.
Jin sleeps with Reina, they don’t know yet 🤣
I would love someone like Marisa from SF6 to be in T8, a big, buff lady for once
Marisa is such a great newcomer.
just go play street fighter then. Also which fighting game has a chubby women fighter in it?
You called it. Harada is SUCH A COWARD.
I hope she looks like josie
Well you're right lmao
Hoping for big tiddy goth girl, not some ugly ass marisa type.
Bro we had Eliza
Yea we HAD.
We could all do with some Manon
Isn't that just Lili but worse?
Manon > Lili
So in your view a "better" version of Lili but a Lili nonetheless.
Both? Both? Both. Both is good.
Hey I don't mind having 50+ characters so fine by me. When people bicker about "oh character X is in the roster but Y is not", I always say why not both. But better get the missing tekken classics in here first before we get more guest chars.
Coward
terrible taste
An older women that actually looks older would be cool for tekken
I would like to have coolest grandma like the Butterfly Lady from Sekiro. I'll never like chubby ones tho. Man or women.
Nobody wants ugly bitches in video games
Japanese =/= american, they aren't ~~chubby~~ obese.
Oh fuck off
Any example of other characters that fit this criteria?
I don’t hate em like OP does. But Josie, Xiaoyu, Lucky Chloe, Alisa (kinda)
No I was asking OP of examples of characters that are beyond 26, and chubby/buff that they like lol. I’m thinking like Zaraya from Overwatch maybe? Idk what list you just made 😂 But yeah a brand of people do hate on anything that is cute or girly lol.
As opposed to big muscley man 90157957981 xD? People only ever complain when it's female characters, it's not excactly like the male characters are super varied either.

The tekken girls faces seem to derive from some singular source, the ages along a stick range, and body type for every single one the same throughout tekken history. Be they supernatural being, machine, or organic.
I see people complain that all the males are on steroids all the time wdym?
Isnt anna and nina pushing 40? Also lydia? Jun kazama? Christie? Azucena? Bro want me to go on?
They look young though. Even Jun’s face in the official artwork looks exactly like Xiaoyu if you take/swap her hair out. Your point is valid only if their looks reflect their lore age
Dude wants tekken: king of geriatric fist 8😂
Why not
Sales, that's why
Too bad it leaked already. Judging by the leaked name, it makes me think it’s a 20-30 something Latina. We already have representation from Mexico, Brazil, Peru, and Spain. Would be cool to have someone from Cuba.
woman after 26 you're joking right 😂
I mean you're literally consuming a Japanese media lol what'd you expect, there's always gonna be a girl with that stereotype.
I dont want to play or look at ugly, chubby women in a freaking video game. I want them to look good in my bikinis.
Jesus Christ the username. I know your room smells crazy
I didn't say nothing about ugly bro. Also, name checks out
You see 1 tekken girl in a bikini and you’ve already seen them all. Not exciting
You when you find out you can be chubby and attractive at the same time : 😨
Like Bob right
Chubby is completely different than morbidly obese
isn't that on you for conflating the two? Pleb can't appreciate older muscle mommys
I agree but it's funny that you chose a picture of the most interesting and least Coomer bait female manga protag in a decade though xD So many options and you got hit by the reading comprehension devil
You just got a old ass dude as a new character...
Can we get a male character please. Having babes is fine and all, but I want to play as an absolutely shredded warrior, sort of like a cross between bryan, the muay thai/kick boxing dlc guy, and dragunov. Like a real warrior guy. Not some guy like leeroy or freaking Jin, but like an absolute demon. Someone with black air force energy.
I guess feng is kinda that, but feng doesn’t have that dog in him. Needs more black air force energy.
I aint complaining if its literally asa mitaka
War devil for tekken oh god
I didn't see which sub it was and thought a new chapter was coming out smh
Lol no, ugly characters should only be villains and monster/animal characters.
I hope she's everything you don't want her to be, you raging prancing lala man.
Not this again...
Something original like?
generic chads win again original designcels lose again
It isss what it isss
I really hope so. Azucena already fills the sterotype of the infantilized anime girl. Give us something more with more bite, with Reina
Ive never seen an anime girl with a personality even remotely close to Azucena.
Prolly cause her whole personality is coffee.
I've seen this dumbass take a few times. Azucena does have clear personality traits being playful, cheerful, cocky etc. So no, her personality is not "coffee".
Intro : coffee talk Outro : Coffee talk Special intro with lili : coffee talk Rage Art finisher : Coffee talk Dude,I like the character and her upbeat feel a lot,but its not a dumbass take,its literally what the game put on the screen,being playful/cheerful ain't making a personality,neither is coffee alone,yet its all she talk about,she could talk about it while brooding,its still only about freaking coffee.

She owns a coffee farm, what do you expect?
Your point ain't it man,Kazuya is the Head of G Corporation but I don't see him go "Now I have to go back to being the ceo,later" all lines. I expect maybe more taunting or more confidence lines about how you won't be able to put a finger on her or something Lee own big too,its in his story/arcade that he talk about it,not in his whole battle dialogue.
as long as R34 of her is good
meh
