Its everyone in Tekken 7 just evil?

Azrael is a monster that would have emerged & destroyed everything. Jin lured him out early (& I think at a weaker state) by creating conflict to bait Azrael.

Sure

But

He was still directly responsible for the deaths of millions of innocent people

Yeah and Cell wasn't evil in dragon ball. He just wanted to destroy the planet, right?

Freezer wasn't bad either, he just wanted to be inmortal

Fat Buu wasn't evil either, he just wanted to eat candy

You guys sucks

But
Heihachi wasn't really 'evil' at that point. Just a really fucking powerful martial artist.

Hachijo clan knew he would become a danger. Which is why they sent Kazumi.
But you could say those events made him evil, heh.

And Kazumi surely did a good job destroying the Mishima bloodline. She even gave birth to the most fucked up of all.

Tekken story is just trash, fun tier trash though.

Yeah Akuma and Heiachi are not bad exactly. But the way they do shit doesn't justify anything.

Geese Howard, now thats a bastard. Now you are going to tell me that next character reveal its Shao-Khan or some shit

Nah, Heihachi is as bad as Geese. You are not the head of a criminal empire for nothing.

I don't consider them pure Evil though as they still got some twisted sense of honor. They don't kill and torture for fun and giggles like Kazuya did when he took over the Mishima Zaibatsu. It's more business for them.

Akuma is not good or evil, he is just a nut job.
 
I kinda have hopes for Kazuya to be redeemed in the next Tekken. He wasn't even given the chance to be anything more than a devil.

Seriously guys, "this character actually had good intentions" does not make them not evil

Heihachi, Kazuya and Jin are all perfectly fine with literal mountains of collateral damage if it gets them to their goals, including world wars where millions of people who have LITERALLY NOTHING TO DO WITH THE MISHIMA FEUD die. That is evil.

I didn't like what they tried to with Heihachi in this game at all. Should have just stuck with their guns with him being an asshole. Even them trying to justify it was pathetic.

Freezer wasn't bad either, he just wanted to be inmortal

Hey cell was at least an android that was programmed to destroy. I'm sure he's a nice guy otherwise :p

Jin was a typical good guy pre T6. But after T6 he isn't much better than the others.

In Tekken 8 Kazuya and Jin square off, and I think it will mark the return of Jun, be it in flashback material. But since these 2 are destined to meet, its impossible Jun won't show up in some form or another.

I do hope Kazuya bodies Jin, though. OG Tekken lead prevails.

For all the guff I could give Tekken at times, I think it's pretty awesome how they've always had lovable, strong, self-important, arrogant characters as their leads. In this way, they never jumped onto an anti-hero bandwagon... they just started with the idea that everyone was a bit twisted in some way.

Geese fits in perfect as a DLC character because he's been the same way forever, as well. The classic evil martial artist, yet at the same time, he took in and supported Billy Kane to the point that the man sees him as a father figure, that he's indebted to for life. No matter how horrible he is, he still is a person that can show his own brand of kindness, too.

Considering where most other fighting franchises took their main characters, it's good Tekken has a unique flavor to it. It's something that pairs well with it's overall art style and personality, too.
 
#Dracula did nothing wrong


This series (as I undestand it) has also been about a bunch of dickheads fighting each other. That's why I aways dug it.

She
crushes Jack's dreams and causes his death and also physically abuses Eddy and makes him her slave. All the while feeling absolutely no remorse
. She's a monster.

Utterly indefensible. Her very existence is an affront to common good taste.

And on top of that, her Rage Art hits low. She's worse than the entirety of the Satan family if you ask me.

Plot twist: Tekken is actually a prequel to Warhammer 40,000

In the grim darkness of the King of the Iron First Tournament... There is only war.

Isn't through farting dinosaur from Tekken 3 a good guy, guest or not?

How about the baby boxing kangaroo?

Isn't the fat sumo just a dude with a crush?

Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel. Yabuki turned off voice chat in Mario Kart races. True artists of their time.
Yes, especially the players
 
Or pure evil. While driving today i was thinking about how everyone in Tekken 7 wants just to conquer the world and everything. Also 2 of 3 DLC characters are just pure evil.

What happened in the Tekken universe? There's no heroes? or somebody who actually wants to help people?

Josie, Xiaoyu, Lili, Nina, Katarina, Marshall Law, Claudio, Leo, Steve Fox, Paul, Alisa, Asuka, Bob, Hworang, King, Kuma/Panda, Yoshimitsu, Miguel, etc.

The majority of the cast are not "evil".

The best part is that she works for G-Corp, and is confirmed not-japanese.

So her kawaii pop act is probably fake


Heihachi is not a good person, but he's not necessarily evil

Jin Kazama has done evil things, but he does them for the greater good

Kazuya....is probably just fucking evil.


Ironically though, it's probably entirely Heihachi's fault that Kazuya is the way he is. He could have grown up to be just like Jin.

Paul Phoenix is the only good guy in the entire universe.

He was waiting in line for his limited edition copy of the most recent Tales game and fucking Bryan Fury cut the line and took the last bundled phone strap that they were giving out only in that location.

Fuck Bryan. And so Paul's adventure began.

Damn, I didn't know Paul was a weeb.

I forgot she works for G-Corp. She's probably Kazuya's right hand or maybe even his behind-the-scenes boss.

Yeah, just tried to kill everybody else. Just not his son. What a noble guy

Geese never tried to kill everybody. If you read his wikia, he is just the classic Mafia boss with a tragic history, a martial art fetish and a shitty relationship to his family.

That being said, he is rotten by ambition like Heihachi, but miles away from pure sadistic evil figures like Kazuya or Bryan Fury.

Yea, for all the trouble they went into humanizing Heihachi, it doesn't excuse the fact that he almost killed his son on a gamble. What if he didn't have the devil gene? Congrats, you just murdered your child. What a hero.

Kazuya has every right to feel the way he does. Both his parents wanted him dead. They didn't even try to guide or help him.

Believes Dragon Quest is a franchise managed by Sony
Jin only wanted to cause destruction for a very specific purpose, he had no plans on taking over the world in the first place.

Also, he did so because the world was threatened by an evil that could wipe out the entire planet itself. Weighing things on a set of scales, hard choices are sometimes made, even if they are unethical.

People in control of any kind of sizable land mass are guilty of this

I think he had even set aside the personal goal of destroying the rest of his family for revenge and destroying the devil gene for this in T6

Didn't Nina work with Jin for a long time, including Tekken 6 (and 7)? Besides her only Claudio appeared in the story.
