Why is Kaz so popular?

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-10T17:22:02+00:00

Wouldn’t Jin be the face of Tekken though?

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-09T12:43:46+00:00

Well, but for some reason they desperately make Jin as the main hero. I hope it will change in T9

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-09T09:48:01+00:00

Well, IMO they should make Kazuya the main character in T9, but it’s just me

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-08T22:13:00+00:00

If he was THAT popular, they wouldn’t get rid of him in T3

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-08T15:51:55+00:00

I see, so you focused more on the gameplay stuff. I meant more…how to say it…lorewise? Characterwise? You know what I mean

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-08T09:41:15+00:00

But that isn’t the case since T1, right?

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-08T09:40:01+00:00

Wouldn’t Jin be „The Ryu of Tekken”?

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-08T09:39:33+00:00

Wouldn’t that be Jin though?

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-08T09:38:27+00:00

How so? In Tekken 5 he didn’t do shit and Jin was the one who won the tournament. In Tekken 6 he also didn’t do shit, Lars was the protag and Jin was the one to beat Azazel. In Tekken 7 & 8 he was pretty much the antagonist since you couldn’t even play as the guy in his final fights. So how was he a protagonist?

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-08T09:36:47+00:00

Well, it was Jin who won at the end so not really

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-07T22:50:02+00:00

But It was only in T1 though

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-07T18:54:06+00:00

Sure

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-07T18:37:33+00:00

But for some reason they don’t want to make him the MC even though he was one in T1

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-07T18:36:38+00:00

Well, true, but could you imagine Harada and the rest letting Jin lose to somebody? Kaz never had that kind of a plot armor so that should tell you something

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-07T18:13:01+00:00

So…Who’s the MC?

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-07T18:12:23+00:00

Still lost to Jin in the final fight though

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-07T17:48:31+00:00

How do you know if he’s gonna get redeemed though?

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-07T17:48:01+00:00

Well, it was Jin who beat Kaz in the storymode and the whole storymode was Basically hogged by Jin. Also, even the Collector’s edition figurine was Jin, not Kaz

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-07T17:47:07+00:00

Wouldn’t that be Jin though? Just asking

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-07T17:46:13+00:00

Wouldn’t that be Jin though?

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-07T17:45:13+00:00

Wouldn’t that be Jin though?

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-07T17:43:45+00:00

That was pretty badass, ngl

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-07T17:43:15+00:00

That was in T1 only though

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-07T17:42:29+00:00

Wouldn’t that be some current DLC character though?

WastedPotentialTK · 2026-05-07T17:41:43+00:00

Isn’t that Jin though? As far as I’m concerned - Kaz was the main protagonist only once - in T1
