Fourteen: Jin Kazama

Character Select:

When highlighted, Jin steps forward, hands in his pockets. When selected, he faces the opponent and throws a couple of practice punches and kicks. This version of Jin kinda-sorta gets along with Kazuya (i.e., he actually helped raise Jin and wasn't a total dick to his son, thanks to Jun's influence on him). Speaking of his parents, Jin is searching for them following their disappearance. Of course, he is targeted by the Black Dragon due to being the heir of the Mishima Zaibatsu, and the revenants are after him due to the Devil Gene.

Intro:

If Jin speaks first, he approaches, cracking his knuckles. If he speaks second, he throws out a couple of kicks ala Kitana.

Costumes:

1. Blood Vengeance - black shirt, black slacks, black shoes.

2. Casual - white shirt, black pants, black longcoat, black boots.

3. Hooded - his hooded jacket costume from Tekken 7.

4. Nostalgia - the black karate pants with the flame design.

Variations:

1. Mishima Karate - incorporates Kazuya's moveset into his style, consisting of powerful strikes and combos.

2. Kazama Martial Arts - incorporates Jun's moveset into his style, which consists of takedowns, bonebreaker moves, and joint locks.

3. Traditional Karate - Jin's moveset from Tekken 7.

X-Ray:

Devil Gene - Jin's X-ray is a counter. Going into a defensive stance, if the opponent strikes him, then he stuns them with a blow to the throat. Transforming into Devil Jin, he tackles them to the ground, and pulverizes the skull from repeated punches to the face. Then he puts the opponent into an armbar, and snaps the arm. Jin then hops to his feet and flings the opponent into the air, where he blasts them with a laser blast, rupturing organs and breaking the ribcage. As they fall to the ground, Jin returns to normal.

Fatalities:

Inferno - Activating the Devil Gene, Jin let loose with three powerful blasts; the first blowing off an arm, the second leaving a gaping hole in the opponents chest, with the third obliterating the head.

Beatdown - Jin performs a 10-hit combo that ends with him breaking the opponent's neck.

Ending:

(A family photo of Kazuya, Jin and Jin, parodying the Cage family photo, seen on the cover of the MKX comic; Kazuya is seated in a chair, with Jun and Jin standing and flanking him)

With Shinnok's return, the Devil Gene within both Kazuya and Jun had begun to go haywire. Jin was unaffected. Following their abrupt disappearance some days earlier, Jin searches for his parents.

(Shot of Kazumi's spirit pointing to the ruins of Hon-maru)

In his search, Jin met the spirit of his grandmother, and progenitor of the Devil Gene, Kazumi Mishima. Acting as his guide, Kazumi led her grandson to the ruins of Hon-maru.

(Shot of Jin and Kazumi fighting both Kazuya in his Devil form and Jun as Unknown)

Within the ruins of the temple, were his parents. Having succumbed to the Devil Gene, they attacked Jin. The battle was furious, but Jin survived, aided by his grandmother. Kazuya and Jun were defeated.

(Shot of Jin visiting his bedridden parents)

The Devil Gene now contained, Kazuya and Jun had been purged of its influence. But as Kazuya warns his son, the Devil Gene's power has drawn the attention of a mysterious and powerful fighter.

(Shot of the 'mysterious fighter' in question, his back to the screen. The red hair in the topknot, the black tattered gi with the kanji 'Ten' on the back. Guess who?)

A master of the fist, a practitioner of a fighting style designed to kill, one who knows good nor evil, has come for the Mishima.

Win Pose:

Jin throws two punches, followed by a front snap kick before going into a defensive stance. "That's it? I expected more."
