Tekken: Blood Vengeance

What happens when a video game producer gets angry enough from the Adaptation Decay of his video game?

He makes the adaptation itself, of course.

Tekken: Blood Vengeance is a CGI film based on the fighting game series Tekken. It is produced by Digital Frontier and written by Dai Sato (Cowboy Bebop). The film was directed by Youichi Mouri, the same person who directed the Tekken 5 and Tekken 6: Blood Rebellion opening cinematics. The soundtrack is composed by Basiscape. Unlike the somewhat decent live action movie that come in 2010, this one was more directly supervised by Namco themselves.

The plot follows Ling Xiaoyu as she is tasked by the G Corporation to infiltrate an international school in Kyoto to gather information on a mysterious student named Shin Kamiya. Not so long after that she makes friends with Alisa Bosconovitch while Shin gets kidnapped by an unknown assailant. Now it's up to Xiaoyu and Alisa to find Shin and solve the mystery behind him.

The film was released on a special Tekken Hybrid Blu-ray Disc in November 2011. The Blu-ray also includes an HD remake of the original Tekken Tag Tournament which can be run on PlayStation 3 along with a demo version of the upcoming Tekken Tag Tournament 2. Nintendo 3DS owners also get to join in the fun, as Namco is bringing Blood Vengeance in the same package as Tekken 3D as part of the Tekken 3D: Prime Edition bundle.

This series provides example of:
"Heihachi: It feels good to be back. Hiding in the shadows after faking your own death is a bore. In fact, it's downright tedious.
 * Absolute Cleavage: Nina Williams' catsuit, unsurprisingly.
 * Action Girl: Every single one of the female characters.
 * Anti Villain:
 * Artistic License Martial Arts
 * Badass Adorable: Xiaoyu, Alisa, and Panda.
 * Badass Grandpa: Heihachi. The guy is in his 70s, yet he can hold his own against Kazuya and Jin.
 * Batman Gambit:
 * Big Fancy House: Lee's mansion.
 * Big Screwed Up Family: The Mishima Clan, full stop. Nina and Anna are a close second.
 * Big No/Say My Name: Xiaoyu after.
 * Call Back: In the ending,
 * Calling Your Attacks: Rocket Punch!
 * The Cameo: Various other Tekken characters (Bob, Bruce, Lili, King, and Raven among others) were seen in a list of possible spies for the G Corporation before Anna settles in on Xiaoyu. Makes sense, as it wouldn't be the best idea to send a Masked Luchador to capture a high-school student.
 * Lei Wulong also sent an phone message to Nina at one point.
 * Chainsaw Good: Alisa, who else?
 * Can't Catch Up: Xiaoyu and possibly the rest of the characters against the Mishima family.
 * Car Fu:  attempts to ambush  by running  over with a truck!
 * Catch Phrase: Lee's "Excellent!", of course.
 * Charles Atlas Superpower: Xiaoyu's skill at martial arts allows her to be kicked through a concrete wall, fall three stories, and have a robot's head explode in her hands, all without a bruise.
 * Cloudcuckoolander: Alisa.
 * Continuity Snarl: Despite taking place between 5 and 6, several events seem to disregard pre-existing canon.
 * Cool Teacher: Lee Chaolan, without a doubt. For starters, how many teachers let you spend the night in their Big Fancy House?
 * Covers Always Lie: Although the scene on the cover does happen in the movie, Alisa
 * Dark Action Girl: Anna.
 * Decoy Protagonists: Xiaoyu and Alisa.
 * Despair Event Horizon:
 * Disney Death:
 * Doomed By Canon: No one from the game is dead per se. But since we know that most characters will survive in Tekken 6, it might be jarring by how much Genre Blindness Jin (and Xiaoyu to some extent) has.
 * Dying As Yourself:
 * Enhance Button: Alisa has one built in and can determine any hidden contents of a photo just by looking at it.
 * Evil Sounds Deep: The Mishimas, who else? Especially Jin Kazama, and he's not as evil as Dad and Grandpa.
 * Fan Service: Including...
 * Modesty Towel: Courtesy of Xiaoyu.
 * She's Got Legs: The film clearly loves to focus on the ladies' legs.
 * Shower Scene: Courtesy of Xiaoyu and Shin.
 * Foreshadowing:
 * While at Lee's mansion, Alisa decides to mimic an attack from a TV show which involves shooting her arms like missiles.
 * Genre Blindness: Jin, did you really think that
 * Good Wings Evil Wings: Though "good" is a relative thing,.
 * Half The Woman She Used To Be:
 * Heel Face Turn: Surprisingly, pulled by a hero. Xiaoyu is gangpressed into the service of G Corp by Anna and is only in it because she likes her target, Shin. Then, when Alisa, who's supposed to be her enemy, goes out of her way to save her life, the two decide to investigate on their own why their superiors are targeting Shin.
 * Hero Antagonist: is revealed to be this after Shin gets kidnapped. She later drops the "antagonist" part and sides with Xiaoyu so they can start their own investigation of what their superiors want with Shin.
 * Just a Machine:
 * Kick the Dog:
 * Kung Shui: Better hope that castle's insured. Three generations of Mishimas together for a family reunion will not end well.
 * Masquerade: A variation: Ganryu expels Xiaoyu from Mishima Polytechnic and transfers her to KIS. When Anna reveals herself and assigns Xiaoyu her mission immediately afterwards, it becomes clear that the whole "expulsion for property damage, bad grades, and [" thing was just a cover for Xiaoyu's new assignment.
 * Melee a Trois: The three-way battle between Kazuya, Heihachi, and Jin.
 * The Mole: Xiaoyu and, both for opposing evil corporations. They soon go on their own together to find out what their superiors are really up to.
 * Wouldn't that make them Reverse Moles?
 * Neutral Female: Xiaoyu turns into one at the end.
 * Not So Different: Alisa has a moment of this about Shin, when she and Xiaoyu find out that he also has a sort of unusual body.
 * Oh Crap: Xiayou, during her fight with Alisa, once she finds out that her opponent is a robot.
 * Shin, when Heihachi shrugs off his punch and proceeds to murder him.
 * One Winged Angel: Naturally, Jin and Kazuya's devil forms; both of whom have been redesigned to represent their true power (also noteworthy for being the first appearance of Jin in control of his devil form).
 * Only In It For The Guy: The only reason why Xiaoyu (unwillingly) serves as a Villain Protagonist for the first half is because the target Anna set her up to capture is a hottie.
 * Pet the Dog: Lee offering shelter to Xiaoyu, Alisa and Panda.
 * Punch! Uh Oh...: Shin attempts to lay Heihachi out with a powered-up punch to the gut. Heihachi is not amused.
 * Qipao: Worn by Xiaoyu at one point, along with Modesty Shorts. Also worn by Anna.
 * Reports of My Death Were Greatly Exaggerated: Heihachi is not quite dead. He is most definitely hard to kill.
 * Punch! Uh Oh...: Shin attempts to lay Heihachi out with a powered-up punch to the gut. Heihachi is not amused.
 * Qipao: Worn by Xiaoyu at one point, along with Modesty Shorts. Also worn by Anna.
 * Reports of My Death Were Greatly Exaggerated: Heihachi is not quite dead. He is most definitely hard to kill.

Kazuya: I thought I've thrown you into the depths of Hell.

Heihachi: Ha! If you thought that was enough to kill me, you are gravely mistaken."


 * Rides Like Crazy: How we are introduced to Ling Xiayou and Panda in the movie.
 * Rocket Punch: Courtesy of Alisa.
 * Rule of Cool: Quite possibly sets the bar for future Rule of Cool entries. All sorts of insanity from start to finish, though it goes Up to Eleven when the three Mishimas start going at it (Heihachi actually pulls off a juggle combo during the battle)... and then it gets even crazier once Kazuya and Jin start tapping into the Devil Gene's power.
 * Shout Out: Contains several to various action movies.
 * To The Matrix: The first scene is set on a highway with high walls like the car chase scene of The Matrix Reloaded, the first character we see is a woman dressed like Trinity, who rides a motorbike like she did in said scene, and who jumps off the motorbike like Trinity did in the first scene of The Matrix Reloaded.
 * To Total Recall: Xiaoyu kicks in the head after discovering  to be a robot.  head lands in Xiaoyu's hands, says something and then it explodes.
 * To Transformers: The truck we see in the first scene looks like and has the same paint job as Optimus Prime.
 * Spot Light Stealing Squad: For nearly much of the movie, the story follows Xiaoyu and Alisa as they try to keep tabs on Shin with occasional run ins with Lee and the Williams sisters.
 * Spy Catsuit: Nina's costume of choice.
 * Stalker With a Crush: Alisa, though she might have lied about that to cover the fact that she was
 * Three D Movie
 * Villain Protagonist: Xiaoyu at first, though not by her own volition (she never was with  from the start).
 * Unwitting Pawn: Anna manipulated her.
 * We Hardly Knew Ye:
 * Well Intentioned Extremist:
 * Wrestler in All of Us: Holy hell, Heihachi. Torture Rack on Shin.
 * Considering his English voice actor, this could count as an Actor Allusion as it visually look similar to GIGANTIC TAGER!
 * As Jin Kazama can bear witness, Heihachi has added a German Suplex to his movelist. He also breaks out a Power Bomb From Hell on his grandson as well.
 * Zettai Ryouiki: Alisa, since she's wearing her Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion outfit.
 * Also, Xiaoyu.
