YOSHIMITSU TEKKEN 3 SERIES
We don’t know what his motivation is, but his latest design is really cool and sets itself apart from any incarnation of the character we’ve seen.īut Tekken isn’t the only series where Yoshimitsu exists. He looks like he’s from out of this world. He’s got tentacles coming from everywhere, and his pants have some kind of glowing design. There’s less armour, and he is clearly alien. This is the most extreme change we’ve seen from this character since his beetle suit. Tekken 7 Looking a little squid like today. He’s wearing a skull mask, with a bone chest plate, but he’s still wearing plate mail armour and he looks almost like a samurai. This is my favourite redesign of the character as it blends a bit of everything in this iteration.
YOSHIMITSU TEKKEN 3 FULL
He must have cut them by the time the next game came out because in Tekken 6 the Manji leader is rocking a full on Mohawk to restore his sword’s power. He’s back to wearing more traditional armour, he’s got some kind of visor helmet going on and his dreadlocks are protected too! At least, we can only assume that’s what they are. This time around though, his wings are gone, and he looks sort of human again. Moving into Tekken 5, Yoshimitsu enters the tournament out of revenge. It’s probably better if we never talk about it again. That is including the two horns in the centre of the helmet, and wings. But to do so, he bought some sweet beetle armour. Our demon-samurai-person-maybe-alien-clan-leader joins the Iron Fist Tournament, to help raise funds to aid the increasing amount of political refugees. But this was the most radicle redesign until, well, the next redesign. There really isn’t much more to say here. His armour looks like it is made out of bone, and his skull looks more akin to alien than anything on this planet. Aside from walking upright, there is nothing that suggests he’s from earth. That theory is really tested in Tekken 3, though. Tekken 3 I refer to this as his “skull Sith” look This version of the character is still fairly human, his face is clearly a mask designed to look like a demon, which is something Samurai warriors wore, so for all we know, he’s still human. Gone are the horns and chainmail, replaced by a cool hat, some new shorts and what looks like new armour.
With that, players got their first look at the newly designed Yoshimitsu. This is a pretty easy way to explain why he’s different in every game despite there being no mention of any iteration being a different character. Once the successor is chosen, the leader is sacrificed and the sword absorbs his power, passing it on to its new master. In Tekken 2 players learn his blade is passed down to whoever leads the Manji party. Tekken 2 I dig the hatĪs the series pressed on, he began to develop more of a back-story. But with the limitations of the PlayStation, you can make an argument about what he is exactly. He wore a helmet with horns, and traditional Japanese armour along with some good old-fashioned chainmail. Disgusted by his lack of respect for the Sumo code, Yoshimitsu steals Ganryu’s gains and gives it to the poor. During this time he crossed paths with the corrupt sumo wrestler Ganryu. As the head of the Manji party, he entered the tournament as a distraction so his clan could run off with the funds without being noticed. Yoshimitsu’s story begins in 1994 with the release of the new cutting edge fighting game Tekken, an arcade game that was ported to the original PlayStation. Tekken You look a little polygonal there buddy. With that being said, his radical changes from entry to entry leaves this open for debate.
YOSHIMITSU TEKKEN 3 SKIN
In fact, there is quite a bit of continuity from game to game and his second skin tends to stay the same from game to game. But Bandai Namco doesn’t ever come right out and say the characters with different designs are actually different people. He’s one of the only characters to cross over between Tekken and Soul Calibur, and in every game he looks different. It’s also the name of the sword that the leader wealds. In terms of design, he’s one of the most tampered with characters in any series.īefore we get too deep into this topic it’s important to note that Yoshimitsu is the name given to the leader of the Manji party (a group of thieves who steal from the rich and give to the poor). Every entry in the series, Yoshimitsu looks different, and this game is no exception. But he might be best known as the character that is constantly redesigned. As a mainstay in the series, his high-octane fight style, mixed with his noble spirit has made him a fan favourite. With the newest iteration already out in Japan, Bandai Namco wanted to show off one of the mainstays of the franchise-Yoshimitsu, who’s now available. As a franchise, fans have come to expect certain things from Tekken.
