So Tekken 8 will be about Kazuya vs Jin but this time with Jin being main protagonist and good guy. I dig that. I'm glad that Jin is back to being main guy again.
Brother Nero Jin was my favorite Tekken character, and I do know that even Heihachi is dead and that they don't have to worry about him anymore, Jin still needs to get his devil gene curse removed.
To be honest Lars was a fail as protagonist in Tekken 6 so I'm happy that Jin is back to being main guy again judging from this scene in Tekken 8 he should be main protagonist. I was really hoping that we would see Jin getting rid of devil gene but it looks like he does seem to have some control over it now.
Brother Nero I know Lars is the main protagonist in Tekken 6, and in this game, they made him as a major character and the main protagonist of this game is mainly Kazuya.
For me Lars sucked big time as protagonist in Tekken 6. He could in no way replace awesomeness that is Jin Kazama. I hated that they made Jin antagonist but Jin was still awesome there. Jin is my main man along with Bryan and Dragunov.
Brother Nero Alot of Tekken characters want Heihachi to die, and in this game Heihachi was finally murdered and Kazuya had finished him once and for all.
Kazumi pretended to love Heihachi. Her sole purpose as the Hachijou Family was to eliminate people they despised. She is also the official direct Devil gene lineage to Kazuya and her blood started the whole devil gene in the Mishima. After seeing this, I've completely sympathize Heihachi. His actions after Kazumi's death is questionable but how can he love his own child who was born by the very woman who betrayed him? Its a tough call for Heihachi and when kid Kazuya knew the truth, it won't change his mind. I actually cried a little when heihachi fall down. Then I nearly cried more when he got tossed into the volcano. Its a bloodshed ending with no reconciliation, no love, no understanding. Just an endless Battle of Hatred until one of them falls. In this case, its Heihachi's last.... You will be missed Heihachi.
I felt betrayed when I heard the truth... Even If I am Heihachi fan since my first game.. Without Kazumi that young Heihachi would have continued jinpachi legacy... Kazumi's betrayal changed this man
Ironic that the plot of Kazumi's character was that she was sent in to infiltrate the Mishima family based off what seems to be some prophecy that they would bring calamity to the world one day. If that is so, then isn't it funny that her betrayal of Heihachi is the VERY thing that set that chain of events into motion? If she had just remained the loyal wife Heihachi would have never likely turned to evil and maybe the same can be said of Kazuya too.
TEKKEN Past: Heihachi throws kazuya from a mountain TEKKEN 1: Kazuya throws heihachi from a mountain TEKKEN 2: Heihachi throws kazuya from a mountain AGAIN TEKKEN 3: *only game they gave a break* TEKKEN 4: Heihachi throws kazuya from a mountain to lava TEKKEN 5: Heihachi throws kazuya, jin and jinpachi to space TEKKEN 6: Heihachi throws himself,jin and kazuya to earth from space xD TEKKEN 7: Kazuya: I'M DONE WITH THIS S*IT!!!!!!! *kills heihachi and Throws him to a lava for last time*
When I was playing this mode I thought at 17:42 "That's it. Kazuya's finished." When Kazuya started panting and crying, I seriously thought he was going to be the one to die and that point, but it didn't happen that way. I think the lesson here is that,"You won't win as long as you give in to evil". It took Kazuya getting his humanity back to kill Heihachi.
Heihachi died as he lived. Fighting, fighting to his fullest with his hands and monstrous martial arts. The funny thing is, is that he wasn't some enhanced human with Supernatural powers but just an ordinary man who trained himself to the peak of human potential. Goodbye Heihachi Mishima, one of the strongest old men in gaming history.😔
Heihachi was a scumbag but he fought for a major good... damn. This feels so sad, after all these years, to see ur fav character of your fav game dying...
I really want to feel bad for Heihachi... but his bad parenting got him to this point. I mean, how hard is it for you to say to your son "your mother tried to kill me, so I had to fight back." Is that so hard? Kazuya can only remember the torment he suffered from Heihachi and how Heihachi abandoned him thereafter. At least Kazuya didn't kill the mother of Jin. And at least Kazuya seems to fight because it seems like he's more or less forced into it. Kazuya may look the part of a villain but it seems like he's just a villain through the eyes of others. In Tekken 1, Kazuya is the protagonist and he eventually becomes the father of Jin who later becomes a protagonist. Kazuya wouldn't even be this way (and probably more like Jin) if his father had did a better job. Even in this ending, Kazuya isn't belittling his father and shows extreme signs of hatred, meanwhile Heihachi doesn't understand that instead of trying to be a better parent to Kazuya and telling him why he murdered the mother, he just "fans the flames" of Kazuya's hatred. Parents aren't perfect but common, telling the son of a demon that only the fittest can survive in the world after beating up Kazuya as a child and throwing him away... I can't blame the guy for being as he is; I expect him to be worse to be honest.
Rew T And Heihachi was the protagonist of Tekken 2, a protagonist and a hero are not the same thing. And aren't you forgetting that Heihachi was abusing Kazuya long before he even knew about the devil gene? Heihachi was always harsh on Kazuya, he even went so far as to betray his own father because he felt that Jinpachi was spoiling Kazuya. Kazuya was only able to stay positive through the support of his grandfather and mother. Once Heihachi killed them however, Kazuya's fate was sealed. With the only two people who genuinely cared for him gone, Kazuya has no care for anyone anymore, and is determined to destroy everything. I'm not saying that Heihachi is redeemable, anti-villains are still villains after all. But Heihachi truly believed his plans would bring about peace. Anti-villains are characters of tragedy, and they are ever so fund of giving us a dire warning. That the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
glad somebody else understand Kazuya character but also i belive that he is corrupt to the point where he dont care anymore but this actually like ending of first tekken gane
very SAD... I see the character that changed the battle between Grandfather and Grandson kill my character, I am fan of Jin Kazama(who disappoints me in Y6) again..
Because it sounded more like two number 9s, a number 9 large, a number 6 with extra dip, a number 7, two number 45s, one with cheese and a large soda..
Man, i always seen Heihachi as a scumbag granddad before and now... Well i can see why, and i just really feel bad for labeling him as a scumbag, Tekken 7 really did a great job there with the story. -unlike SFV-
Lesson Two: If your wife wanted to kill you because it is prophesied that you will become power hungry and bent on world domination, don't fucking do that after you kill her.
That will be more than that.Lesson 3:That power can brought good by ending world threat from beginning but that will brought flaw side like Kazuya did in Tekken 2.Assassin power like Hachijo couldn't bring peace but only bring chaos and war.If this Heihachi's revelation of his family's dark secret include Heihachi's true nature and intention,Hachijo's power is not bring in Tekken 8 and Tekken 7 but only brought attention all fighters to join forces against Kazuya where Hachijo think they are "threat" zealously.
brightsuperstition it's ok man, I been hoping for jun to come back but we shouldn't complain because we have kuma and panda each with different slots amirght ? :)
we should wait for the next game.. I heard that Xiaoyu was going to get married in T7 Fated Retribution... a 2nd part of this story? tekkengamer.com/2016/04/07/harada-says-ling-xiaoyu-will-marry-in-tekken-7-fated-retribution/
All this time I thought Heihachi was a huge dick but now I feel bad for him cuz the man led a pretty tough life. Darn you Tekken. You are supposed to make me wanna fight and instead here I am buying a ticket to the "feels" train!
who do everyone sympathize with heihachi? kazuya is the tragic guy here, his mom gave him the devil gene cursing him, his dad killed his mom, his dad threw him off a volcano when he was just a kid, killed him again in the second tournament by throwing him off a LIVE volcano, and after all that, he found out even his MOM wants him dead and dont forget in tekken 8, he will very likely be finished by his own son
NOT EVERYONE.. Because Heihachi is death and is my favorite character.. This is like T3, with Kazuya fans without his character... But this is definitive. That Bitch of Kazumi ruined Heihachi and Kazuya lifes.. That betrayal corrupted Heihachi and changed everything(she wanted his son death too).. Heihachi does not abuse of kazuya all his childhood as we all believed.. All begin after Kazumi death..
Dogquack But i dont think that Jin will finish kazuya... the both of them are immortal imo... that would be risky move from namco, considering their population and huge fan base
Me too, he is the strongest human to ever exist. And he got betrayed by everyone he loved and cared about. He only killed jin and kazuya because he was afraid of the devil gene turning them into monsters just how kazumi turned out. He is the true hero of the story, a real tragic figure that everyone misunderstood and judged too quickly.
Yuri Lima noone said that doing the right thing is good or even sound good. But sometimes you got to look bad and do bad things in order to save more people. At the end Lars says to Jin that this is a world with no Heihachi. A world were a devil has a lot of power and everything is in ruins. Because Heihachi might be who he is but he did everything for others, not himself.
Kostas68238 gotta agree to disagree, i think you're missing the whole theme of Tekken, Heihachi dos the thing he does for himself And no one Else. the while game os about the mishimas vengeance, André the World being dragged in to It. he kills is father, for no other reason than to get the Mishima Zaibatsu way Before the whole Devil gene thing. Lust for Power os one big Axis of his character
Yuri Lima I don't disagree that Heihachi through the tekken series is a power hungry beast. But tekken 7 is the only time to see Heihachi from his own perspective. He is the protagonist in tekken 7 because the whole story surrounds him and his actions. Through the other tekken series we see things through the eyes of Kazuya and Jin. The child who was abused by his father isn't going to be completely fair or even try to understand his father. He will just see him as the devil. And through the eyes of Jin who was betrayed by Heihachi although he admired him, you ain't going to hear the best for the old guy. The thing is Heihachi was non-canon through tekken 4 and 5 which he was in his worst. In tekken 3 heihachi doesn't try to steal Jin's devil gene to become stronger, he is just trying to end the devil gene by killing Jin. He does cruel things don't get me wrong but he is doing them to extinct the devil gene. And the fact that the games are about the mishimas vengeance is completely true. But Heihachi was always portraited as a heartless monster, but now we see that Heihachi is actually a guy who tries to do the right thing.
I was right.Heihachi wanted ultimate power to destroy Devil Gene,not World Domination.Heihachi won't order to kill reporter because he knew world need to know real truth about who is biggest threat than him and shown him what he did is just like Jin to end Mishima Bloodline's curse.He reveal his alignment is more than evil or neutral/evil.
I liked how the reporter asked him as to what this war means to him. It basically shows how much Heihachi has TRULY lost because of his desires and his attempts to destroy Kazyua and Jin, heck, even chapter 12 was the beginning of the end for Heihachi.
If the reporter interviews with Kazuya, you know that won't end very well. But it buffels me why Heihachi didn't kill the reporter or his men troops. Nina could be there, she's a assassin btw. Could this be a plot hole?
Ryowhosakazaki Heihachi didn't kill reporter and not order his troop and Nina to kill him because he wants to spread a words to world for let everyone know who is biggest threat than Mishima Zaibatsu and him. So,they will need to know better that to face their biggest foe in destruction world.Heihachi loves his wife and his son more and Peaceful world despite his interest with domination until he betrayed by wife when she attack him and declare him as biggest threat despite her curse blood will bring more destruction than domination.His life is already turn upside down when his wife and his son's blood share each other as living chaos.He has no choice but to search ultimate power to destroy that curse bloodline.
saarah0006 i desliked his devil from BV... but this one looks great, its like a better version of ttt1 devil.. i wonder how is possible that Kazuya using this form... As u probably know, kaz fought akuma and he transformed into generic devil.
Has it ever occurred to any of you guys that Heihachi could indeed just be lying to the journalist to make himself look good in the eyes of the public?
Mystomachhurt Jinpachi didnt count, he didnt have the devil gene but still unknown to me why he was imprisoned. The reason why kazuya was thrown off a volcano was to kill him, the cliff one was an experiment.
Khalis Syahril 1.Jin had devil blood because he is the son of kazuya and Jun Kazama.2.answered in the 1st one.3. Dunno who eliza is, but in her ending lili stated if eliza is her sister/cousin. She didnt have the devil blood, she appeared at T5 dark ressurection.
My theory about Tekken 7 story were proven to be correct, i knew Heihachi would get killed by no other than his son Kazuya, and the next epic final battle will be between Jin and Kazuya!
Raver1601 fuck that I did my years of waiting they should've included her here, sad seeing people like you still hoping for her after harada shit on them for the millionth time when it comes to her.
I'd wait, lol. Tbh, I'll only buy another mainline Tekken game if Jun's gonna be on the roster. I'm not big of fighting games in the first place, but I like her character enough to want to play the game anyway. Blame nostalgia. That Tekken 2 demo specifically that had only Jun and Lei as playable characters.
it's still possible for her to be a dlc later on guys. Harada said that none of the original old school characters will be paid dlc, which means that if he decides to include Jun Kazama, you won't even have to pay. :D
Syed Tanzil Ahmed omfg, I have said this million times before but here we go 1- he NEVER stated that there is going to be any returning characters 2- the DLC is going to be new content not old chars 3- even IF there is returning chars, there is no confirmation that JUN is one of them
SalutexMO he did that while he was in control of the zaibatsu and was married to Kazumi. So perhaps he did it to lock away "the evil" Jinpachi possessed if there was any.
U r the most stupidest person ever, u realize why he did this was to give the peace kazumi wanted and btw he wouldn't have done all this shit if it weren't for kazumi constantly attacking heihachi so who's the bad guy
Heihachi reminds me so much of Yammamoto from bleach. In some ways he seems ruthless, brutal and viscous.. And he will never beg or ask for your help so you think he really doesn't care. But the truth is... He cares the most, the irony of this is that. I honestly think Heihachi loved Kazuya more then anything and he felt not only was the devil gene used against him as a form of betrayal from the woman he loved. But he also felt like it would cause Kazuya more misery on top of the suffering of others in the world. In a way, I see it as him trying to put his son out of his misery, and stop him from being the monster he would become. The type of abuse he was showing him was to keep his mind disciplined and to keep him in check. He got mad at Jinpachi because Jinpachi was spoiling him to much, and its like for him he was watching him spoil a unstable child.. Spoil a child on that's unstable and the start getting out of control running amock. He believed in disciplining him to keep him in check, so he could control himself later in life but it backfired and he overly did it. Causing him to try to kill his lost cause do to his pride.. Instead of owning up to it. But the one thing he probably realized the most, is that Kazuya.. was "his" son and like father like son. The same way he became a great warrior like his father, is the same way Heihachi.. Had to realize "would I have listened to myself if I told him.. I had to kill your mother because she tried to kill us and there's a dark evil inside you" "probably not.. My son wouldn't listen either way" even towards the end Heihachi knew Kazuya wouldn't listen.. It's your mother and women have that effect on men. There are some mothers today that could manipulate there kids all day, and you tell the kid the truth.. They would just think you are lying. Heihachi in his eyes you could see he wanted to tell his son, he wanted to see his son as this strong man and he always wanted his son to see him as strong aswell. You could see the love in his eyes.. The "Tough Love he shows" and the sadness at the fact the he knew this had to come to a end. Shows this was something he never wanted to do, it just had to be done the Heihachis story is far more complicated then selfishness and selflessness. Everything that seemed like it was for just personal gain turned out to be more, if it benefits along the way let's go with that for my final end goal.
We'll get it at the end of the PS4 life cycle. We get at least 3 Tekken games per system generation. PS1 - Tekken 1, 2, 3 PS2 - Tekken Tag Tournament, 4, 5 PS3 - Tekken 6, Tag Tournament HD, Street Fighter x Tekken, Tekken Tag Tournament 2 PS4 - Tekken 7 and I bet we get Tekken x Street Fighter and Tekken 8 this gen.
I hate the case that Kazuya didn't learn the entire truth before that fight was finished as he deserved to know. Of course I was certain Kazuya would get his revenge in the end, now one can see what becomes of his fight with his own son.
Well now we know that is not the end of the series, and Jin is going to get his happy ending and fix everything. It seems that Jin finally knows what he did wrong and he's going to do it right this time in Tekken 8.
If you pay close intention, you'll notice that Heihachi was setting the stage for Jin. Even making sure to capture Jin alive instead of killing him. This can only mean that Jin is Heihachi's contingency plan.
Sort of feel bad about Hei.... wished they woyld have expanded on this thing that Kazumi's family purpose is to kill "scum(s)" like Heihachi.c So What's Kazuya purpose now? All of this time it was sort of the same as Kazumi's.... Wished they expanded in why Akuma and Kazumi k ew each other... at a Devil bar?
AnotherBot:D Their purpose was to eliminate threats to the world. Heihachi always had a goal of taking over the world through military force in order to bring about peace. The problem is that Heihachi's plans while having noble intentions, would inevitably lead the world to war. Kazumi wasn't wrong, and while she was reluctant to kill the man she had come to love, she gave in to the devil gene in order to kill Heihachi thus preventing the events of the series up to this point. Kazuya is too far corrupted by the devil gene, as his mother predicted. Kazuya only wants power to do as he pleases. This is why Kazumi requested Akuma to kill both him and Heihachi.
I interpreted it that Kazumi foresaw whatever Heihachi/Kazuya would do, but in attempting to prevent it and kill Heihachi she unknowingly began all of it. If she hadn't tried to kill Heihachi, he wouldn't have known about the devil in Kazuya and thus would have had no reason to throw him off the cliff.
This is sad and all, but a lot has been ret-conned. No matter if Kazumi had the devil gene, this doesn't excuse Heihachi attempting to murder his son and grandson. Kazuya was abused as a child by Heihachi; thus helping him to go evil (still a personal choice). And what of Jin? Wasn't the devil gene curse placed on him by...whatever that creepy thing was in the T3 opening movie? Jin never wanted the devil power, yet Heihachi - who Jun trusted to take care of her son, had the Tekken Force to gun Jin down, AND Heihachi delivered the final blow. In T4, Heihachi wanted Jin's power, too...then the plot just goes nuts after that. So, now Jin will save the day which means one of them has to die (Kazuya or Jin), and maybe just maybe Asuka will finally be made into an important character since she has powers to destroy the devil gene. I dunno. The NEW retcon story is emotional, but kind of annoying.
Unfortunately, Tekken is NOT OVER yet--Jin still has to stop Kazuya out cold. Now Heihachi's dead, all that's left is Kazuya. All Jin wants is to die without children and put a stop to the Hachijou/Mishima ruckus once and for all.
MrInuhanyou123 if jin get a son from one of the main family'sthe game. mishma , kazam. hichjio but with secret love ( after killing kazuya ) it would be so cool
I think Jin might be a bit more serious about what he wants to do to put an end to his Hachijou curse than expected. He's aware that he has the Devil Gene, but he has no details about that it was Kazuya's mother, Kazumi Hachijou, that was the culprit just yet.
Mark Kim I have theory about Tekken 8.I know Heihachi is dead.But we can't decide that fully yet because last time,Heihachi kills Kazuya in tekken 2 as confirmed dead but he return to life in Tekken 4.What if Heihachi will survive again when he received fatal blow from his son after being thrown from cliff and killed by explosion.He said he is proclaimed invisible.What if he return Tekken 8.
Have you guys seen the movie Wanted? They send assassins to kill deemed to be a threat to the world but is actually only killing the ones deemed by their organization to be a threat. Sounds like the Hachijo clan to me. It also heightens my suspicion on why the hell they have a devil gene in the first place.
Want to know what I think? I think Heihachi wanted Kazuya to kill him all this time, for killing Kazumi and starting down this cycle of hate. Perhaps he realized Kazumi had been right all this time later down the road. And blamed himself for all of this the same way Kazumi does herself.
The Tekken story is so fucking misleading. I thought the reason why Heihachi killed his wife Kazumi because he was too power hungry and letting it all go to his head. After watching this, I see now that she was the one who betrayed him. I understand that Heihachi was hurt, but he where he FUCKED ALL THE WAY UP FOR ME was when he threw his son Kazuya off a cliff. I probably would've sympathized with Heihachi a lot more had he not done that to his own son. Like, he lost MAJOR points with me on that.
I think it was because the devil gene that Kazumi had was passed onto Kazuya and Heihachi wasn't sure if he should kill him or not. (Obviously we know what he chose) But it was very messed up. No child should have to go through that.
Play the song "Be in the mirror" over the final battle, and tell me you don't tear up... The hardest part about Heihachi's death, is that i am now 21 years old. Tekken 2 was the first game i ever played. I literally grew up with this man, His ego, his silly antics, his merciless demeanor. And now he is gone, Heihachi is such a powerful presence in fighting games, it actually feels like i lost a friend, one who gave me rage, humor in his silly endings, and amazement with his stylish moveset that shows years of hard earned mastery. And with that, i thank you, Heihachi. I now understand why you were the way you are. Thanks for all the memories. :,(
Honest Dix did you notice a slight change in his voice? That's right,his iconic voice actor died in real life and now devs had to kill his character...
ILYA BARTENEV Don't decide that yet.We need to wait and see first despite he is already dead.Last time,Kazuya drop him off from cliff in Tekken 1 as officially dead but can back to alive as survive in Tekken 2.We know Kazuya's blow strike him on Heihachi's chest as fatal blow but don't try think that easily as simple fact.
+Honest Dix except that'd be shitty writing. Hate to break it to you he's dead. And if he comes back I'll be extremely pissed and I won't be the only one considering this entire game was hyping up that one of these two would die. And reviving heihachi would LITERALLY make this and pointless.
This is how you end a pure blooded rivalry. A need for vengeance against a man who killed the one who brought you into this world. A need for justification, to stop a family curse from putrefaction and to fight for the greater good. Vengeance against a greater good. This is how a rivalry should end.
I hope that Akuma(he is here too) save him.. But I doubt this... Even if Heihachi is/was Harada favorite character.. In the comics world(dc comics for example) Heihachi would not have died, only one clon... I THINK THAT We should accept this, Heihachi is death and... Kazuya is the next... He can not hide forever from death
Mishima Heiachi, we all now know how it gone truly......as a man you've done errors, we are not perfect, but now we fully understand why everything gone as it has. Here dies a betrayed man who tried everything to save what was left of his life and his dreams, no longer hatred, Mishima Heiachi.....rest in peace. To Kazama Jin: In your blood lies the devil gene, but your mother's love maken you an angel. Yours is the mission to end this all! May you have your revenge upon Kazuya!
This seems like street fighter concept based on characters. Ryu/Jin = both reject Evil powers, satsui no hado something for ryu, Devil gene for Jin Akuma/Kazuya = both embrace their evil powers
And then Tekken 8 comes out and Heihachi survived that. Considering the same thing happened to Kazuya in Tekken 2 and the shit Heihachi has survived he'll come back.
9:40 "If the fall didin't kill him, I would be proven correct" errr whats the contingence plan if the fall killed him? missing a couple steps on this master plan of yours Heihachi.
You Heihachi fans are so delusional. To all you idiots blaming Kazumi, let's not forget the reason why Kazumi wanted Heihachi dead: It was predicted that he would cause catastrophic global conflicts due to his ruthless, almost insatiable hunger for power which is consistent of what we have seen from him since the very first Tekken. He imprisoned his father Jinpachi underground (the only purely good Mishima) and turned his company into a war profiting, arms dealing, militant force with virtually endless capital. She didn't corrupt him, he was corrupted (power hungry) from the start. Also, there is no evidence that Kazumi faked her love for Heihachi. Why do you think she hesitated to confront Heihachi all over the years? There is nothing to suggest that she was into power and world domination (unlike Heihachi). She comes from a clan dedicated to preventing diabolical people from taking over the world. Heihachi was NEVER a good guy. He was in the wrong from day, Kazumi and her clan are the good guys.
Lists of Heihachi's 'the right thing' that Heihachi's fans seems to forget 1.Imprisoning your father in Honmaru until death, which means death by starvation 2. Throw your son into the volcano 3. Start the shit that made your wife tried to kill you to begin with. 4. Uses your grandkid to fight Ogre, then shot him in the head + Bonus point if his Devil Gene's awaken. Yeah son, definitely the right thing.
Heihachi is capable of defeating devils with pure hatred against him. Sad to see a legend that cheated death many times finally die. Still hoping to see him in the next tekken though, Heihachi just can't die!
Heihachi prisoned his Father Jinpachi before Kazumi and let him starve to dead. Jinpachi is only Mishima with good heart since the beginning. He founded Mishima Karate School. Heihachi betrayed him for power hungry..
Heihachi may still have some goofy qualities in this game but, god damn he was such a bad ass. He was evil, but he is the lesser evil between him and Kazuya. Far lesser. Kazuya needs to die and Jin can finally do what he intended in Tekken 4. Hoooo what a sad story that will make.
That's so true. Tournaments have no place in the story anymore. Lol But I guess it's because the plot has escalated to such a point that it's outgrown any tournament structure.
I don't think that kazumi actually had the devil gene I think it happened after when kazumi got ill and was about to die when she made the deal with the devil to let her live. Thats why she then acted completely normal and was better again
and then a "new" character will arrive on Tekken 8 that has the same exact same moveset as Heihachi with a backstory that is more or less related or connected to Heihachi yo justify his/her similat fighting style to Heihachi because players who mains Heihachi will be mighty pissed if they dont have a main in the next Tekken game..
The retcons really made people love Heihachi even though in the original games he was the big bad and all he wanted was power and when he heard of Ogre he realized he can achieve immortality
Looks like Kazuya finally understood that letting himself consumed by vengeance and becoming a litteral demon wasn't the way for defeating Heihachi. Only took him like 50 years...
No his demon form wasn't enough to beat Heihachi, that's how you must understand this fight, the man is stronger than the devil, I think Harada will agree with that statement
Tekken 7 is the end of the mishima saga, Heihachi is really dead. Kazuya only be relived, because he has the devil gene in his blood, heihachi didn't have it. He can't revived.
if you really thing about it Kazuya died too back in tekken 2 he survived only because of devil gene and in tekken 4 they become one = Kazuya become devil himself
Lord boss you do have great points because g corp did revive him some how looks like G corp might get destroyed and Jin and the others might revive him same how g corp revive kazuya
actually my point was that (human parts of) Kazuya died back in tekken 2 and well about Heihachi it will happend for 85% knowing the fact that he is harada fovorite character
He fights Kazuya at the true ending of the game (after Kaz throws Heihavji into the volcano), but we don't see the outcome. Still, the protagonist would never die at the hands of a >"guest" character. IRL Akuma would annihilate Kazuya. Even Devil Kazuya. He can go Shin Akuma which can vaporize moon-sized asteroids with 1 blow, or even Oni, who's much stronger than Shin Akuma. But base form is enough. So I wouldn't be surprised if they pretend Akuna never happened, in Tekken 8. It's just dumb to have him fight characters who are considerably weaker than him (story-wise) and lose.
maybe only in flashbacks... and the next game is the DEFINITIVE END... I also believe that without Heihachi this is not tekken... For that I support Jin mission(kill kazuya) again..
I love that even though both the TEKKEN Tag games are completely non-canon to the TEKKEN storyline, they still use clips from the games in the storyline
I hope that tekken 8 will have animation like when they r fighting theyre clothes get ripped and their body will have blood or dirt bcus when they fight they look so sleek and clean
Guys, Kazuya fufilled the Hachijo's purpose but as for Tekken 8 or Jin, it'll be about the Kazama purpose of nullifying Devil, IMO Jin will only end Devil without necessarly killing Kazuya.
KonekoNekoRDB I didn't even fucking think about that. The reason Jin and nullify and finally control the gene properly without it fully taking him over is due to Kazama blood. And he possibly could beat Kazuya into submission, with Jun convincing him to just use the Kazama within him to rid Kazuya of the devil gene.
I can't blame Heihachi for wanting to kill his son when he was a child. But, he could've at least been a better parent and have convinced Kazuya that he had to kill his mother.
I think Tekken 8 have all characters will focus on target of Kazuya because he is major threat than Heihachi.Kazuya didn't realized it was his fault for not facing himself to end the war and deny truth about his mother's origin caused his father to face family's curse.Jin is realized he will carry his grandfather's work as end Devil gene bloodline.
I really don't feel bad for Heihachi, He wasn't just evil to Kazuya & Jin. He was evil to other characters & the world too. Wanting to take over & shit. I clapped when Kazuya threw him in the volcano. Kazuya finally got what he wanted after all these years. Kazuya back being number 1 in the story as he should be & now Jin is second. Tekken for many years kept treating Kazuya like Vegeta in DBZ which is fucked up
1. This stuff all started cuz of heihachi's wife 2. Kazuya is the bad one here, he killed his wife, his grandpa and his dad 3.heihachi is the good guy because he tried to stop this devil gene stuff but failed. 4.yes he was evil, but it was because of kazumi's curse 5.kazuya was clueless about what heihachi's done, he doesn't even know why heihachi killed his mother threw him off a cliff.
@@Gamerchizkdkks Kazuya didn’t kill Jun. Ogre did and she’s probably not dead and coming back in T8. Kazuya didn’t kill Jinpachi, that T5 ending isn’t canon.
Came back here after hearing the news about Heihachi's voice actor... Heihachi died in-game, and one year later the voice actor passed away in real life...
That is right.He is just like Jin Kazama in Tekken 6 as doing on purpose.I think I will switch alignment of Heihachi in Tekken series: Tekken 1:Neutral Tekken 2:Good Tekken 3:Neutral(unknowingly Neutral Good as killing Jin is safe way for safety of World) Tekken 4:Neutral Tekken 5:Neutral Good/Chaotic Good(possibly) Tekken 6:Neutral Good/Chaotic Good
If you think he is really bad guy,bad guy should kill everyone include witness and journalist.This Heihachi's scene as confession of his crime is prove he didn't kill journalist after reveal his crime for murder his wife and attempt murder his son. So much for your real answer.
DVJFan But her power will brought nothing but chaos and destruction.She is not in right mind.Heihachi's story about hard on his family in past is just made up for unfairly motivate people angry at him.Sure he want to be world conqueror but he still love his wife and child more than interest with domination.Check this story:tekken.wikia.com/wiki/Heihachi_Mishima#Tekken_7
man you gotta appreciate just how TOUGH Heihachi is. He doesn't have any hax mode like his own dad and son or grandson. He is 100% human and still manages to wreck the living shit out of them
That will shown his true alignment when we know his past and true nature behind villain.He still has positive for helping them to defeat true threat.That is reason why he calls Lars to pick reporter up.He will explain everything to him in offscene during phonecall about his action is same as Jin in Tekken 6 in order to finish what he started before anything happen to him.
After all this time I expected to feel happy that Heihachi was gone. I never expected him to be the protagonist and to actually feel bad when he died. It turns out he was justified for a lot of stuff he did all along. It just feels so strange. I wasn't expecting this. This game was great and I'm really glad I took the time to buy and play this. It really was an experience.
So Tekken 8 will be about Kazuya vs Jin but this time with Jin being main protagonist and good guy. I dig that. I'm glad that Jin is back to being main guy again.
Brother Nero Jin was my favorite Tekken character, and I do know that even Heihachi is dead and that they don't have to worry about him anymore, Jin still needs to get his devil gene curse removed.
To be honest Lars was a fail as protagonist in Tekken 6 so I'm happy that Jin is back to being main guy again judging from this scene in Tekken 8 he should be main protagonist. I was really hoping that we would see Jin getting rid of devil gene but it looks like he does seem to have some control over it now.
Brother Nero I know Lars is the main protagonist in Tekken 6, and in this game, they made him as a major character and the main protagonist of this game is mainly Kazuya.
For me Lars sucked big time as protagonist in Tekken 6. He could in no way replace awesomeness that is Jin Kazama. I hated that they made Jin antagonist but Jin was still awesome there. Jin is my main man along with Bryan and Dragunov.
Brother Nero Alot of Tekken characters want Heihachi to die, and in this game Heihachi was finally murdered and Kazuya had finished him once and for all.
Kazumi pretended to love Heihachi. Her sole purpose as the Hachijou Family was to eliminate people they despised. She is also the official direct Devil gene lineage to Kazuya and her blood started the whole devil gene in the Mishima.
After seeing this, I've completely sympathize Heihachi. His actions after Kazumi's death is questionable but how can he love his own child who was born by the very woman who betrayed him? Its a tough call for Heihachi and when kid Kazuya knew the truth, it won't change his mind.
I actually cried a little when heihachi fall down. Then I nearly cried more when he got tossed into the volcano. Its a bloodshed ending with no reconciliation, no love, no understanding. Just an endless Battle of Hatred until one of them falls. In this case, its Heihachi's last....
You will be missed Heihachi.
Not only that,Kazuya didn't care human life when he indirectly cause trouble with peoples' life and never face himself.
I felt betrayed when I heard the truth... Even If I am Heihachi fan since my first game..
Without Kazumi that young Heihachi would have continued jinpachi legacy... Kazumi's betrayal changed this man
+adris cc Exactly. this scarred Heihachi. The only person he loved betrayed him.
heihachi had betrayed jinpachi before kazumi showed up
Abraham Kresnik I dont like that bitch Kazumi at all.........
Ironic that the plot of Kazumi's character was that she was sent in to infiltrate the Mishima family based off what seems to be some prophecy that they would bring calamity to the world one day. If that is so, then isn't it funny that her betrayal of Heihachi is the VERY thing that set that chain of events into motion? If she had just remained the loyal wife Heihachi would have never likely turned to evil and maybe the same can be said of Kazuya too.
Self-fulfilling prophecy.
Well Kazuya would still have the devil gene so shit would eventually become problematic. It's a conundrum in that sense, there really is no way out.
I think that is the whole point of the story... there is a bigger machination of fate in the background
every snake bites, every woman betrays, it is their nature, this game is pretty red pilled
It's just bad writing, Harada just fucked up the story since he took over the series.

Rip heihachi
Poor kuma has no owner anymore
Dang I forgot about Kuma :'(
well... at least he'll be fine, he's been operating alone under the pretext that Heihachi was already dead for the past 2-3 games and got by okay
Jordy Pordy Im taking care of him now........ And it sucks ass
Jordy Pordy Oh shit the bear! D: I forgot about bear have a owner from Street fighter X tekken
i sense an interesting story arc for him in Tekken 8
When I was playing this mode I thought at 17:42 "That's it. Kazuya's finished." When Kazuya started panting and crying, I seriously thought he was going to be the one to die and that point, but it didn't happen that way. I think the lesson here is that,"You won't win as long as you give in to evil". It took Kazuya getting his humanity back to kill Heihachi.
Tekken 8, he might gambling to sacrifice his life for his son sake.
Heihachi died as he lived. Fighting, fighting to his fullest with his hands and monstrous martial arts. The funny thing is, is that he wasn't some enhanced human with Supernatural powers but just an ordinary man who trained himself to the peak of human potential. Goodbye Heihachi Mishima, one of the strongest old men in gaming history.😔
Heihachi was a scumbag but he fought for a major good... damn.
This feels so sad, after all these years, to see ur fav character of your fav game dying...
fought
I really want to feel bad for Heihachi... but his bad parenting got him to this point. I mean, how hard is it for you to say to your son "your mother tried to kill me, so I had to fight back." Is that so hard? Kazuya can only remember the torment he suffered from Heihachi and how Heihachi abandoned him thereafter. At least Kazuya didn't kill the mother of Jin. And at least Kazuya seems to fight because it seems like he's more or less forced into it. Kazuya may look the part of a villain but it seems like he's just a villain through the eyes of others.
In Tekken 1, Kazuya is the protagonist and he eventually becomes the father of Jin who later becomes a protagonist. Kazuya wouldn't even be this way (and probably more like Jin) if his father had did a better job. Even in this ending, Kazuya isn't belittling his father and shows extreme signs of hatred, meanwhile Heihachi doesn't understand that instead of trying to be a better parent to Kazuya and telling him why he murdered the mother, he just "fans the flames" of Kazuya's hatred. Parents aren't perfect but common, telling the son of a demon that only the fittest can survive in the world after beating up Kazuya as a child and throwing him away... I can't blame the guy for being as he is; I expect him to be worse to be honest.
Rew T And Heihachi was the protagonist of Tekken 2, a protagonist and a hero are not the same thing. And aren't you forgetting that Heihachi was abusing Kazuya long before he even knew about the devil gene? Heihachi was always harsh on Kazuya, he even went so far as to betray his own father because he felt that Jinpachi was spoiling Kazuya. Kazuya was only able to stay positive through the support of his grandfather and mother. Once Heihachi killed them however, Kazuya's fate was sealed. With the only two people who genuinely cared for him gone, Kazuya has no care for anyone anymore, and is determined to destroy everything.
I'm not saying that Heihachi is redeemable, anti-villains are still villains after all. But Heihachi truly believed his plans would bring about peace. Anti-villains are characters of tragedy, and they are ever so fund of giving us a dire warning. That the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
glad somebody else understand Kazuya character but also i belive that he is corrupt to the point where he dont care anymore but this actually like ending of first tekken gane
very SAD... I see the character that changed the battle between Grandfather and Grandson kill my character, I am fan of Jin Kazama(who disappoints me in Y6) again..
Feel sad for what happened to Heihachi, especially after the part showing him as a loving husband and stuff
Alexey Knyazev this sounds sarcastic with your profile pic...
Why?
;D :D
Because it sounded more like two number 9s, a number 9 large, a number 6 with extra dip, a number 7, two number 45s, one with cheese and a large soda..
Thats a made up story by heihachi to clear the public negativity you piece of shit _l_
Man, i always seen Heihachi as a scumbag granddad before and now... Well i can see why, and i just really feel bad for labeling him as a scumbag, Tekken 7 really did a great job there with the story.
-unlike SFV-
Tatsuo Shinada True
Tatsuo Shinada Same here bro. I wasn't expecting to feel bad for him.
Also not to mention he turned the tellen force into a military army for no reason and imprisoned his father
The lesson here is: Throwing your child off a cliff is not the answer
You needed a video game to teach you that lesson?!
Lesson Two: If your wife wanted to kill you because it is prophesied that you will become power hungry and bent on world domination, don't fucking do that after you kill her.
JKF 201726 better lesson than school yes :D
That will be more than that.Lesson 3:That power can brought good by ending world threat from beginning but that will brought flaw side like Kazuya did in Tekken 2.Assassin power like Hachijo couldn't bring peace but only bring chaos and war.If this Heihachi's revelation of his family's dark secret include Heihachi's true nature and intention,Hachijo's power is not bring in Tekken 8 and Tekken 7 but only brought attention all fighters to join forces against Kazuya where Hachijo think they are "threat" zealously.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
daddy problems: the game

I think your talking about Jojo's Eyes of Heaven

Uh, so Jin's role in 99 percent of the plot of Tekken 7 was being unconscious? And in the last 2 minutes as a sequel hook? That's it?
brightsuperstition it's ok man, I been hoping for jun to come back but we shouldn't complain because we have kuma and panda each with different slots amirght ? :)
we should wait for the next game.. I heard that Xiaoyu was going to get married in T7 Fated Retribution... a 2nd part of this story?
tekkengamer.com/2016/04/07/harada-says-ling-xiaoyu-will-marry-in-tekken-7-fated-retribution/
he didn't say she would get married in T7, he said she would get married in the future, it was only assumed that he meant in T7... so it could be T8
adris cc 😱😱😱😱😱 this so sick man but yeah harada said that hope is won't be jin
Yes.
The DEATH OF A LEGEND..
I still can't Believe Heihachi was the good guy all along
Ty Marshall they never said he was the good guy.
but they never said he was the bad guy
He was a man who used to love but does no longer. :(
He was more of an anti-hero. Heihachi is more of a "The end justifies the means" guy. He does evil in order to defeat the greater evil.
All this time I thought Heihachi was a huge dick but now I feel bad for him cuz the man led a pretty tough life. Darn you Tekken. You are supposed to make me wanna fight and instead here I am buying a ticket to the "feels" train!
who do everyone sympathize with heihachi? kazuya is the tragic guy here, his mom gave him the devil gene cursing him, his dad killed his mom, his dad threw him off a volcano when he was just a kid, killed him again in the second tournament by throwing him off a LIVE volcano, and after all that, he found out even his MOM wants him dead
and dont forget in tekken 8, he will very likely be finished by his own son
Dogquack Well yeah, I pity him were if not for the fact that he basically sold his soul for power. He reveled in his demon power, not like Jin.
NOT EVERYONE.. Because Heihachi is death and is my favorite character.. This is like T3, with Kazuya fans without his character... But this is definitive.
That Bitch of Kazumi ruined Heihachi and Kazuya lifes.. That betrayal corrupted Heihachi and changed everything(she wanted his son death too).. Heihachi does not abuse of kazuya all his childhood as we all believed.. All begin after Kazumi death..
Dogquack u forgot the most tragic detail: he grew up alone
Dogquack But i dont think that Jin will finish kazuya...
the both of them are immortal imo...
that would be risky move from namco, considering their population and huge fan base
Dogquack I hope not kazuya all the way
Dicks out for Heihachi,the most badass grandpa ever...
Feel sad for Heihachi...
Me too, he is the strongest human to ever exist. And he got betrayed by everyone he loved and cared about. He only killed jin and kazuya because he was afraid of the devil gene turning them into monsters just how kazumi turned out. He is the true hero of the story, a real tragic figure that everyone misunderstood and judged too quickly.
Kostas68238 i know right? the poor baby angel who only tried to murder a child and shoot his own grandson in the back. ducha Injustice. 😢
Yuri Lima noone said that doing the right thing is good or even sound good. But sometimes you got to look bad and do bad things in order to save more people. At the end Lars says to Jin that this is a world with no Heihachi. A world were a devil has a lot of power and everything is in ruins. Because Heihachi might be who he is but he did everything for others, not himself.
Kostas68238 gotta agree to disagree, i think you're missing the whole theme of Tekken, Heihachi dos the thing he does for himself And no one Else.
the while game os about the mishimas vengeance, André the World being dragged in to It.
he kills is father, for no other reason than to get the Mishima Zaibatsu way Before the whole Devil gene thing. Lust for Power os one big Axis of his character
Yuri Lima I don't disagree that Heihachi through the tekken series is a power hungry beast. But tekken 7 is the only time to see Heihachi from his own perspective. He is the protagonist in tekken 7 because the whole story surrounds him and his actions. Through the other tekken series we see things through the eyes of Kazuya and Jin. The child who was abused by his father isn't going to be completely fair or even try to understand his father. He will just see him as the devil. And through the eyes of Jin who was betrayed by Heihachi although he admired him, you ain't going to hear the best for the old guy. The thing is Heihachi was non-canon through tekken 4 and 5 which he was in his worst. In tekken 3 heihachi doesn't try to steal Jin's devil gene to become stronger, he is just trying to end the devil gene by killing Jin. He does cruel things don't get me wrong but he is doing them to extinct the devil gene. And the fact that the games are about the mishimas vengeance is completely true. But Heihachi was always portraited as a heartless monster, but now we see that Heihachi is actually a guy who tries to do the right thing.
i wish my mustache was like young Heihachi's so my students will fear me.
I was right.Heihachi wanted ultimate power to destroy Devil Gene,not World Domination.Heihachi won't order to kill reporter because he knew world need to know real truth about who is biggest threat than him and shown him what he did is just like Jin to end Mishima Bloodline's curse.He reveal his alignment is more than evil or neutral/evil.
I liked how the reporter asked him as to what this war means to him. It basically shows how much Heihachi has TRULY lost because of his desires and his attempts to destroy Kazyua and Jin, heck, even chapter 12 was the beginning of the end for Heihachi.
Rotorstorm331 Yeah.Without Heihachi,the world will crumble into Devil Abyss just like Kazuya did in Tekken 2.
Honest Dix tekken 2 repeat possibly with Jin
If the reporter interviews with Kazuya, you know that won't end very well. But it buffels me why Heihachi didn't kill the reporter or his men troops. Nina could be there, she's a assassin btw. Could this be a plot hole?
Ryowhosakazaki Heihachi didn't kill reporter and not order his troop and Nina to kill him because he wants to spread a words to world for let everyone know who is biggest threat than Mishima Zaibatsu and him. So,they will need to know better that to face their biggest foe in destruction world.Heihachi loves his wife and his son more and Peaceful world despite his interest with domination until he betrayed by wife when she attack him and declare him as biggest threat despite her curse blood will bring more destruction than domination.His life is already turn upside down when his wife and his son's blood share each other as living chaos.He has no choice but to search ultimate power to destroy that curse bloodline.
so heihachi is finally dead..... now jin and kazuya are the only one's left
And after that, it's most likely their bloodline will end

Oh wait i think i was wrong
this shit is like a movie god damn almost forgot i was watching a game
Holy shit look at devil Kazuya's new look !
its not new, its from blood vengeance movie years ago
Tekken blood vengeance and Tag Tournament 2 Prologue had that version of devil Kazuya.
saarah0006 he looks a little different from them. Hair is visible different skin texture.
Oh haven't played the game since I bought TTT2
saarah0006 i desliked his devil from BV...
but this one looks great, its like a better version of ttt1 devil..
i wonder how is possible that Kazuya using this form...
As u probably know, kaz fought akuma and he transformed into generic devil.
Has it ever occurred to any of you guys that Heihachi could indeed just be lying to the journalist to make himself look good in the eyes of the public?
He was telling the complete truth
He was telling the truth
nah i think he told the truth as a confession because he knew one of them was going to die
So my Tekken theory about Heihachi turned to be right. Heihachi is the who does the right thing
Dragon Warrior congrats! I believed in you.
Mystomachhurt Jinpachi didnt count, he didnt have the devil gene but still unknown to me why he was imprisoned. The reason why kazuya was thrown off a volcano was to kill him, the cliff one was an experiment.
Thats a made up story by heihachi to clear the public negativity you piece of shit l
Dragon Warrior why Jin have devil blood? Who is he? And why eliza is a devil too? Omg i'm confused, somebody explain to me :(
Khalis Syahril 1.Jin had devil blood because he is the son of kazuya and Jun Kazama.2.answered in the 1st one.3. Dunno who eliza is, but in her ending lili stated if eliza is her sister/cousin. She didnt have the devil blood, she appeared at T5 dark ressurection.
My theory about Tekken 7 story were proven to be correct, i knew Heihachi would get killed by no other than his son Kazuya, and the next epic final battle will be between Jin and Kazuya!
son v.s. grandson🤔
Tekken 8 is gonna be the final war between Mishima Family.
With Jin as the protagonist again. I want Jun to come back and save them both!

I'd wait, lol. Tbh, I'll only buy another mainline Tekken game if Jun's gonna be on the roster. I'm not big of fighting games in the first place, but I like her character enough to want to play the game anyway. Blame nostalgia. That Tekken 2 demo specifically that had only Jun and Lei as playable characters.
it's still possible for her to be a dlc later on guys. Harada said that none of the original old school characters will be paid dlc, which means that if he decides to include Jun Kazama, you won't even have to pay. :D
Artificial PuP lol I remember that too. good times...
Syed Tanzil Ahmed omfg, I have said this million times before but here we go
1- he NEVER stated that there is going to be any returning characters
2- the DLC is going to be new content not old chars
3- even IF there is returning chars, there is no confirmation that JUN is one of them
Anyone else think that the reporter's monotone delivery in the story is hilarious?
Heihachi is NOT good. He betrayed and left Jinpachi to die in a prison.
Does that sound like a good guy to you?
SalutexMO he did that while he was in control of the zaibatsu and was married to Kazumi.
So perhaps he did it to lock away "the evil" Jinpachi possessed if there was any.
U r the most stupidest person ever, u realize why he did this was to give the peace kazumi wanted and btw he wouldn't have done all this shit if it weren't for kazumi constantly attacking heihachi so who's the bad guy
You hear that story from evil guy with teeth in stomach... Lol
SalutexMO No one is truly "good"
Well that happened after bitch kazumi tried to kill him...he was the a kind man before bitch kazumi decided he was evil.
Its all up to Jin now.......
Heihachi reminds me so much of Yammamoto from bleach. In some ways he seems ruthless, brutal and viscous.. And he will never beg or ask for your help so you think he really doesn't care. But the truth is... He cares the most, the irony of this is that. I honestly think Heihachi loved Kazuya more then anything and he felt not only was the devil gene used against him as a form of betrayal from the woman he loved. But he also felt like it would cause Kazuya more misery on top of the suffering of others in the world. In a way, I see it as him trying to put his son out of his misery, and stop him from being the monster he would become. The type of abuse he was showing him was to keep his mind disciplined and to keep him in check. He got mad at Jinpachi because Jinpachi was spoiling him to much, and its like for him he was watching him spoil a unstable child.. Spoil a child on that's unstable and the start getting out of control running amock. He believed in disciplining him to keep him in check, so he could control himself later in life but it backfired and he overly did it. Causing him to try to kill his lost cause do to his pride.. Instead of owning up to it. But the one thing he probably realized the most, is that Kazuya.. was "his" son and like father like son. The same way he became a great warrior like his father, is the same way Heihachi.. Had to realize "would I have listened to myself if I told him.. I had to kill your mother because she tried to kill us and there's a dark evil inside you" "probably not.. My son wouldn't listen either way" even towards the end Heihachi knew Kazuya wouldn't listen.. It's your mother and women have that effect on men. There are some mothers today that could manipulate there kids all day, and you tell the kid the truth.. They would just think you are lying. Heihachi in his eyes you could see he wanted to tell his son, he wanted to see his son as this strong man and he always wanted his son to see him as strong aswell. You could see the love in his eyes.. The "Tough Love he shows" and the sadness at the fact the he knew this had to come to a end. Shows this was something he never wanted to do, it just had to be done the Heihachis story is far more complicated then selfishness and selflessness. Everything that seemed like it was for just personal gain turned out to be more, if it benefits along the way let's go with that for my final end goal.
"Every villain is a Hero of his own story."
I believe Tekken 8 is gonna be on Ps5
abdiwali ismail I hope its in PS4 too.
abdiwali ismail I hope its in PS4 too.
We'll get it at the end of the PS4 life cycle. We get at least 3 Tekken games per system generation. PS1 - Tekken 1, 2, 3 PS2 - Tekken Tag Tournament, 4, 5 PS3 - Tekken 6, Tag Tournament HD, Street Fighter x Tekken, Tekken Tag Tournament 2 PS4 - Tekken 7 and I bet we get Tekken x Street Fighter and Tekken 8 this gen.
I hate the case that Kazuya didn't learn the entire truth before that fight was finished as he deserved to know. Of course I was certain Kazuya would get his revenge in the end, now one can see what becomes of his fight with his own son.
He already learned it when heihachi said, " dont give it to evil" which supposedly for kazumi. He might sacrifice himself for jin sake..
This did not change my opinion on Heihachi. I still think he got what he deserved.
Well now we know that is not the end of the series, and Jin is going to get his happy ending and fix everything. It seems that Jin finally knows what he did wrong and he's going to do it right this time in Tekken 8.
This was never stated to be the end of the series. This game's story was meant to conclude the conflict between Kazuya and Heihachi.
No shit dude. It got everyone thinking it was the end.
If you pay close intention, you'll notice that Heihachi was setting the stage for Jin. Even making sure to capture Jin alive instead of killing him. This can only mean that Jin is Heihachi's contingency plan.
That theory sounds good, sounds like some harry potter shit
Ninja07Keaton I doubt it.
Sort of feel bad about Hei.... wished they woyld have expanded on this thing that Kazumi's family purpose is to kill "scum(s)" like Heihachi.c
So What's Kazuya purpose now? All of this time it was sort of the same as Kazumi's.... Wished they expanded in why Akuma and Kazumi k ew each other... at a Devil bar?
AnotherBot:D Now that Heihachi is dead, what will happen next?
AnotherBot:D Their purpose was to eliminate threats to the world. Heihachi always had a goal of taking over the world through military force in order to bring about peace. The problem is that Heihachi's plans while having noble intentions, would inevitably lead the world to war. Kazumi wasn't wrong, and while she was reluctant to kill the man she had come to love, she gave in to the devil gene in order to kill Heihachi thus preventing the events of the series up to this point.
Kazuya is too far corrupted by the devil gene, as his mother predicted. Kazuya only wants power to do as he pleases. This is why Kazumi requested Akuma to kill both him and Heihachi.
I interpreted it that Kazumi foresaw whatever Heihachi/Kazuya would do, but in attempting to prevent it and kill Heihachi she unknowingly began all of it. If she hadn't tried to kill Heihachi, he wouldn't have known about the devil in Kazuya and thus would have had no reason to throw him off the cliff.
jun gotta show up sooner or later!
USSCrazybat That sounds very accurate to me. Which makes this story all the more tragic.
Damn, say what you want about Heihachi, but he went out like a BEAST.
This is sad and all, but a lot has been ret-conned. No matter if Kazumi had the devil gene, this doesn't excuse Heihachi attempting to murder his son and grandson. Kazuya was abused as a child by Heihachi; thus helping him to go evil (still a personal choice).
And what of Jin? Wasn't the devil gene curse placed on him by...whatever that creepy thing was in the T3 opening movie? Jin never wanted the devil power, yet Heihachi - who Jun trusted to take care of her son, had the Tekken Force to gun Jin down, AND Heihachi delivered the final blow.
In T4, Heihachi wanted Jin's power, too...then the plot just goes nuts after that. So, now Jin will save the day which means one of them has to die (Kazuya or Jin), and maybe just maybe Asuka will finally be made into an important character since she has powers to destroy the devil gene.
I dunno. The NEW retcon story is emotional, but kind of annoying.
Unfortunately, Tekken is NOT OVER yet--Jin still has to stop Kazuya out cold. Now Heihachi's dead, all that's left is Kazuya. All Jin wants is to die without children and put a stop to the Hachijou/Mishima ruckus once and for all.
he wont die without children tho
MrInuhanyou123 if jin get a son from one of the main family'sthe game. mishma , kazam. hichjio but with secret love ( after killing kazuya ) it would be so cool
I think Jin might be a bit more serious about what he wants to do to put an end to his Hachijou curse than expected. He's aware that he has the Devil Gene, but he has no details about that it was Kazuya's mother, Kazumi Hachijou, that was the culprit just yet.
Mark Kim I have theory about Tekken 8.I know Heihachi is dead.But we can't decide that fully yet because last time,Heihachi kills Kazuya in tekken 2 as confirmed dead but he return to life in Tekken 4.What if Heihachi will survive again when he received fatal blow from his son after being thrown from cliff and killed by explosion.He said he is proclaimed invisible.What if he return Tekken 8.
Mark Kim he's gonna kill Kazuya & marry Xiao
Super Saiyan Heihachi vs True Devil Kazuya.
Or Heihachi S. God vs Kazuya Devil or destruction
Conrado Javier I was thinking the same thing😂😂😂
Ultra instinct heihachi
Have you guys seen the movie Wanted? They send assassins to kill deemed to be a threat to the world but is actually only killing the ones deemed by their organization to be a threat. Sounds like the Hachijo clan to me. It also heightens my suspicion on why the hell they have a devil gene in the first place.
Want to know what I think? I think Heihachi wanted Kazuya to kill him all this time, for killing Kazumi and starting down this cycle of hate. Perhaps he realized Kazumi had been right all this time later down the road. And blamed himself for all of this the same way Kazumi does herself.
The Tekken story is so fucking misleading. I thought the reason why Heihachi killed his wife Kazumi because he was too power hungry and letting it all go to his head. After watching this, I see now that she was the one who betrayed him. I understand that Heihachi was hurt, but he where he FUCKED ALL THE WAY UP FOR ME was when he threw his son Kazuya off a cliff. I probably would've sympathized with Heihachi a lot more had he not done that to his own son. Like, he lost MAJOR points with me on that.
I think it was because the devil gene that Kazumi had was passed onto Kazuya and Heihachi wasn't sure if he should kill him or not. (Obviously we know what he chose) But it was very messed up. No child should have to go through that.
Play the song "Be in the mirror" over the final battle, and tell me you don't tear up... The hardest part about Heihachi's death, is that i am now 21 years old. Tekken 2 was the first game i ever played. I literally grew up with this man, His ego, his silly antics, his merciless demeanor. And now he is gone, Heihachi is such a powerful presence in fighting games, it actually feels like i lost a friend, one who gave me rage, humor in his silly endings, and amazement with his stylish moveset that shows years of hard earned mastery. And with that, i thank you, Heihachi. I now understand why you were the way you are.
Thanks for all the memories. :,(
This is a real ending......fuck any other game ending. This right here is amazing.
18:09 Those old PS1 renders bring back so much nostalgia.
I wish Heihachi will return in Tekken 8 as great invincible fighter in series with tragic past.
Honest Dix did you notice a slight change in his voice? That's right,his iconic voice actor died in real life and now devs had to kill his character...
That doesn't surprise me. Heihachi is officially dead. Not only his iconic voice actor, but in person as well.
ILYA BARTENEV Don't decide that yet.We need to wait and see first despite he is already dead.Last time,Kazuya drop him off from cliff in Tekken 1 as officially dead but can back to alive as survive in Tekken 2.We know Kazuya's blow strike him on Heihachi's chest as fatal blow but don't try think that easily as simple fact.
+Honest Dix except that'd be shitty writing. Hate to break it to you he's dead. And if he comes back I'll be extremely pissed and I won't be the only one considering this entire game was hyping up that one of these two would die. And reviving heihachi would LITERALLY make this and pointless.
Timmy Menard his voice actor isn't Iconic when it's hardly noticeable
This is how you end a pure blooded rivalry.
A need for vengeance against a man who killed the one who brought you into this world. A need for justification, to stop a family curse from putrefaction and to fight for the greater good.
Vengeance against a greater good.
This is how a rivalry should end.
At 12:40 Kazuya's badass hatred look.
Don't get why Heihachi did not reconstruct his Dojo before death.
That's so sad.. I hope Heihachi gets the devil gene and live again
Jaber Al Marri That would be so ridiculously stupid,tell me you are just joking.
I hope that Akuma(he is here too) save him.. But I doubt this... Even if Heihachi is/was Harada favorite character.. In the comics world(dc comics for example) Heihachi would not have died, only one clon...
I THINK THAT We should accept this, Heihachi is death and... Kazuya is the next... He can not hide forever from death
Uto Resa 519 haha man I didn't expect Heihachi to die
adris cc the man is 80 years old and moves better than me.. well .. I accept his death that way
What happened too jin pachi? the entity may favor heihachi next??
Mishima Heiachi, we all now know how it gone truly......as a man you've done errors, we are not perfect, but now we fully understand why everything gone as it has. Here dies a betrayed man who tried everything to save what was left of his life and his dreams, no longer hatred, Mishima Heiachi.....rest in peace. To Kazama Jin: In your blood lies the devil gene, but your mother's love maken you an angel. Yours is the mission to end this all! May you have your revenge upon Kazuya!
This seems like street fighter concept based on characters.
Ryu/Jin = both reject Evil powers, satsui no hado something for ryu, Devil gene for Jin
Akuma/Kazuya = both embrace their evil powers
Except its not focused on family conflict
So after all these years waiting since 1997 JUN KAZAMA is not mentioned at all this is shit seriously
AnjoCaídoX3 officially missing according to Harada go check it
Vice Virtuez
Jun is missing. My dad had the theory that she has no memory after fighting the Ogre.
Katerina K. Then what was Ogre holding in his hand when we saw him amidst the flames in 3? Looked like he had a head or something.
Probably she will be mentioned in tekken 8
tbh, Hyped for tekken 8 and I haven't played 7 yet
And then Tekken 8 comes out and Heihachi survived that. Considering the same thing happened to Kazuya in Tekken 2 and the shit Heihachi has survived he'll come back.
16:55 - 17:14

9:40 "If the fall didin't kill him, I would be proven correct"
errr whats the contingence plan if the fall killed him? missing a couple steps on this master plan of yours Heihachi.
Same thought I had. But everyone is trying to explain how "good" he is.
You Heihachi fans are so delusional.
To all you idiots blaming Kazumi, let's not forget the reason why Kazumi wanted Heihachi dead: It was predicted that he would cause catastrophic global conflicts due to his ruthless, almost insatiable hunger for power which is consistent of what we have seen from him since the very first Tekken. He imprisoned his father Jinpachi underground (the only purely good Mishima) and turned his company into a war profiting, arms dealing, militant force with virtually endless capital. She didn't corrupt him, he was corrupted (power hungry) from the start. Also, there is no evidence that Kazumi faked her love for Heihachi. Why do you think she hesitated to confront Heihachi all over the years? There is nothing to suggest that she was into power and world domination (unlike Heihachi). She comes from a clan dedicated to preventing diabolical people from taking over the world.
Heihachi was NEVER a good guy. He was in the wrong from day, Kazumi and her clan are the good guys.
Lists of Heihachi's 'the right thing' that Heihachi's fans seems to forget
1.Imprisoning your father in Honmaru until death, which means death by starvation
2. Throw your son into the volcano
3. Start the shit that made your wife tried to kill you to begin with.
4. Uses your grandkid to fight Ogre, then shot him in the head + Bonus point if his Devil Gene's awaken.
Yeah son, definitely the right thing.
Heihachi is capable of defeating devils with pure hatred against him. Sad to see a legend that cheated death many times finally die.
Still hoping to see him in the next tekken though, Heihachi just can't die!
okay so anyone else notice that the sound that plays during Injustice Super moves and MKX X RAY were playing during Rage Arts?
Tekken is one of those fighting games where I actually care about the characters and the Story.
Heihachi prisoned his Father Jinpachi before Kazumi and let him starve to dead.
Jinpachi is only Mishima with good heart since the beginning.
He founded Mishima Karate School.
Heihachi betrayed him for power hungry..
Heihachi may still have some goofy qualities in this game but, god damn he was such a bad ass. He was evil, but he is the lesser evil between him and Kazuya. Far lesser. Kazuya needs to die and Jin can finally do what he intended in Tekken 4. Hoooo what a sad story that will make.
You are right kazuya will die
Remember when Tekken actually had a Canon tournament for each game? Tekken 6 destroyed that!
That's so true. Tournaments have no place in the story anymore. Lol But I guess it's because the plot has escalated to such a point that it's outgrown any tournament structure.
I don't think that kazumi actually had the devil gene I think it happened after when kazumi got ill and was about to die when she made the deal with the devil to let her live. Thats why she then acted completely normal and was better again
dont want to ruin the feels but their hair are amazing. I bet they can still recognize Heihachi's body with his hair still on shape.
heihachi... :,(
laparca 003 I feel the same way he really shouldn't have died it should been kazuya if heihachi capture him alive than they would have kazuya
and then a "new" character will arrive on Tekken 8 that has the same exact same moveset as Heihachi with a backstory that is more or less related or connected to Heihachi yo justify his/her similat fighting style to Heihachi
because players who mains Heihachi will be mighty pissed if they dont have a main in the next Tekken game..
Mokujin?
The retcons really made people love Heihachi even though in the original games he was the big bad and all he wanted was power and when he heard of Ogre he realized he can achieve immortality
Looks like Kazuya finally understood that letting himself consumed by
vengeance and becoming a litteral demon wasn't the way for defeating Heihachi. Only took him like 50 years...
but he won by doing that, so he didn't understand anything in the end.
No his demon form wasn't enough to beat Heihachi, that's how you must understand this fight, the man is stronger than the devil, I think Harada will agree with that statement
Tekken 7 is the end of the mishima saga, Heihachi is really dead. Kazuya only be relived, because he has the devil gene in his blood, heihachi didn't have it. He can't revived.
if you really thing about it Kazuya died too back in tekken 2 he survived only because of devil gene and in tekken 4 they become one = Kazuya become devil himself
Lord boss you do have great points because g corp did revive him some how looks like G corp might get destroyed and Jin and the others might revive him same how g corp revive kazuya
actually my point was that (human parts of) Kazuya died back in tekken 2
and well about Heihachi it will happend for 85% knowing the fact that he is harada fovorite character
Heihachi did survived a explosion in Tekken 5
Hope Heihachi returns in the future Tekken games as a non-story mode character though. Just for exhibition/offline/online matches.
I can see by the final fight that both kazuya and hieihachi have two different perspective of the situation and yet think the same way
It feels like Jun might be the only one who can end what is basically a goddamn curse now within this family.
so akuma failed LOL!!!!!
Sam Hoss i was wondering where he is but it looks like he did
He fights Kazuya at the true ending of the game (after Kaz throws Heihavji into the volcano), but we don't see the outcome.
Still, the protagonist would never die at the hands of a >"guest" character.
IRL Akuma would annihilate Kazuya. Even Devil Kazuya.
He can go Shin Akuma which can vaporize moon-sized asteroids with 1 blow, or even Oni, who's much stronger than Shin Akuma.
But base form is enough.
So I wouldn't be surprised if they pretend Akuna never happened, in Tekken 8. It's just dumb to have him fight characters who are considerably weaker than him (story-wise) and lose.
I agree akuma can beat kazuya but
devil kazuya might have a chance if akuma does not go shin or above
Solaire of Astora kazuya won't die until jin puts him to rest like heihachi... And we don't really know akumi appearance was so random
I believe this is not the end of Heihachi. He will come back for some reason. No Tekken without Heihachi!!!
maybe only in flashbacks... and the next game is the DEFINITIVE END... I also believe that without Heihachi this is not tekken... For that I support Jin mission(kill kazuya) again..
No
NO!!! Joseph why did u die? 😭
I love that even though both the TEKKEN Tag games are completely non-canon to the TEKKEN storyline, they still use clips from the games in the storyline
narrator sounds like his dog died. sad AF
I hope that tekken 8 will have animation like when they r fighting theyre clothes get ripped and their body will have blood or dirt bcus when they fight they look so sleek and clean
R.I.P jin's grandfather he never was the bad guy
Guys, Kazuya fufilled the Hachijo's purpose but as for Tekken 8 or Jin, it'll be about the Kazama purpose of nullifying Devil, IMO Jin will only end Devil without necessarly killing Kazuya.
KonekoNekoRDB I didn't even fucking think about that.
The reason Jin and nullify and finally control the gene properly without it fully taking him over is due to Kazama blood.
And he possibly could beat Kazuya into submission, with Jun convincing him to just use the Kazama within him to rid Kazuya of the devil gene.
But what happens to Akuma?
Ismael Vera we will see in tekken 8
He went back to SF universe.
@@jayvee8502 did he get the job done?
he doesn't seem sad
I can't blame Heihachi for wanting to kill his son when he was a child. But, he could've at least been a better parent and have convinced Kazuya that he had to kill his mother.
And Heihachi has done dumb shit in the past, so I don't feel bad for him.
I think Tekken 8 have all characters will focus on target of Kazuya because he is major threat than Heihachi.Kazuya didn't realized it was his fault for not facing himself to end the war and deny truth about his mother's origin caused his father to face family's curse.Jin is realized he will carry his grandfather's work as end Devil gene bloodline.
Did Jinpachi have the devil gene or did his soul transform in to that of a demon after he died? (serious question)
He doesn't have the devil gene. He was possessed by some random demon.
I really don't feel bad for Heihachi, He wasn't just evil to Kazuya & Jin. He was evil to other characters & the world too. Wanting to take over & shit. I clapped when Kazuya threw him in the volcano. Kazuya finally got what he wanted after all these years. Kazuya back being number 1 in the story as he should be & now Jin is second. Tekken for many years kept treating Kazuya like Vegeta in DBZ which is fucked up
1. This stuff all started cuz of heihachi's wife
2. Kazuya is the bad one here, he killed his wife, his grandpa and his dad
3.heihachi is the good guy because he tried to stop this devil gene stuff but failed.
4.yes he was evil, but it was because of kazumi's curse
5.kazuya was clueless about what heihachi's done, he doesn't even know why heihachi killed his mother threw him off a cliff.
@@Gamerchizkdkks Kazuya didn’t kill Jun. Ogre did and she’s probably not dead and coming back in T8. Kazuya didn’t kill Jinpachi, that T5 ending isn’t canon.
Came back here after hearing the news about Heihachi's voice actor... Heihachi died in-game, and one year later the voice actor passed away in real life...
Abraham Kresnik dude I felt bad for Heihachi, and knowing he won't be in Tekken 8 saddens me, unless Harada resurrects him in some weird way.
Glad that Heihachi is the good guy 😀
That is right.He is just like Jin Kazama in Tekken 6 as doing on purpose.I think I will switch alignment of Heihachi in Tekken series:
Tekken 1:Neutral
Tekken 2:Good
Tekken 3:Neutral(unknowingly Neutral Good as killing Jin is safe way for safety of World)
Tekken 4:Neutral
Tekken 5:Neutral Good/Chaotic Good(possibly)
Tekken 6:Neutral Good/Chaotic Good
Think ever you want. You will stick with your own.I will stick with mine.
If you think he is really bad guy,bad guy should kill everyone include witness and journalist.This Heihachi's scene as confession of his crime is prove he didn't kill journalist after reveal his crime for murder his wife and attempt murder his son. So much for your real answer.
DVJFan What about Jin's action in Tekken 6,what he did is bad as Heihachi and Kazuya.
DVJFan But her power will brought nothing but chaos and destruction.She is not in right mind.Heihachi's story about hard on his family in past is just made up for unfairly motivate people angry at him.Sure he want to be world conqueror but he still love his wife and child more than interest with domination.Check this story:tekken.wikia.com/wiki/Heihachi_Mishima#Tekken_7
man you gotta appreciate just how TOUGH Heihachi is. He doesn't have any hax mode like his own dad and son or grandson. He is 100% human and still manages to wreck the living shit out of them
Story mode was pretty short, but you gotta admit it had the most epic fights
Heihachi let his son kill him because he suffer too long enough and show him he will know the truth of biggest threat and problem of this war.
I think that you are right... I would not be surprised that like Abel... Heihachi would have left something to help Lars side.
The Mishima Zaibatsu for example?
That will shown his true alignment when we know his past and true nature behind villain.He still has positive for helping them to defeat true threat.That is reason why he calls Lars to pick reporter up.He will explain everything to him in offscene during phonecall about his action is same as Jin in Tekken 6 in order to finish what he started before anything happen to him.
After all this time I expected to feel happy that Heihachi was gone. I never expected him to be the protagonist and to actually feel bad when he died.
It turns out he was justified for a lot of stuff he did all along. It just feels so strange. I wasn't expecting this. This game was great and I'm really glad I took the time to buy and play this. It really was an experience.
RIP Hieihachi
I waited four years for this ?
Stop complaining, the ending of Heihachi and Kazuya's feud was satisfactory & long awaited.
Jerry Ramirez
Aww and the fanboy to the rescue
You wait four years to get a one hour storymode, trash.
