== Asuka Kazama ==
{{quote| You're gonna get hurt!}}
 
Jin Kazama's Osaka cousin. Asuka's first reason to enter the tourney in ''5'' was to take out the person who put her father in the hospital (that would be Feng). Lei Wulong gave her the info, and even though she's unable to find Feng, she just stays in the tournament for "fun". She doesn't win, though manages to make a Rival out of [[Rich Bitch|Lili]] in ''Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection''. In ''Tekken 6'', Asuka finds out that her cousin Jin is trying to take over the world, so she gets ready to kick his ass like any other loving family member would. Seeing as they're part of the [[Badass Family|Mishimas]], [[Big Screwed-Up Family|that]] [[Dysfunctional Family|isn't]] [[Feuding Families|surprising.]]
 
Interestingly enough about Asuka, she seems to be able to counter the Devil Gene. In her ''Tekken 5'' ending, Jin's horns, tattoos, and wings all disappear at her touch.
 
Tropes associated with Asuka:
* [[Action Girl]]
* [[Badass Adorable]]
* [[Gag Boobs]]: Due to her ending in ''5''. Jin, having reverted from his Devil Jin persona, hastily awakens, wondering where he is. [[Accidental Pervert|Unfortunately]], [[Marshmallow Hell|he falls face-first into Asuka's breasts]], complete with an audible BOING. The two lay there for a sizable amount of time, [[Quieter Than Silence|long enough for a tumbleweed to roll in the distance.]] Jin ends up [[Megaton Punch|being punched into a rock]], having no clue of what he just suffered through. This cutscene most likely caused those lobbying for a [[Kissing Cousins]] dynamic to [[Squee]].
** Interestingly enough, she talks to Jin here like she was unaware of their family connection (she wasn't aware of the connection until before ''Tekken 6'').
* [[Cute Bruiser]]
Line 24:
* [[Kansai Regional Accent]]
* [[Kindhearted Cat Lover]]: Maybe the most triumphant example if the ''Tekken 5'' intro is any indication.
* [[Ordinary High School Student]]
* [[Plucky Girl]]
* [[Ryoko Shiraishi]]: Her seiyuu.
** [[Ascended Extra]]: Shiraishi performed the vocals for the ''Tekken 2'' ending credits song.
* [[She's Got Legs]]
* [[Ship Tease]] / [[Les Yay]]: With Lili, in the fandom. This has its roots in their [[Foe Yay]] throughout ''5'' and ''6''.
* [[Shorttank]]
* [[Spirited Competitor]]
* [[Suspiciously Similar Substitute]]: Asuka has every move of her aunt Jun, including the ones she received for ''Tekken Tag Tournament''. There is a subversion here, as Asuka was designed as a [[Foil]] to Jun.
* [[Tomboy]]: She's the tomboy to her rival Lili's [[Tomboy and Girly Girl|girly girl.]]
* [[You Go, Girl!]]

== Feng Wei ==
{{quote| ... HWOOOAAAAHH!}}
 
Feng is the star pupil of the "God Fist" style. However, in process of his show of power, he broke the dojo's rules, is scolded by his master and he kills him. He intends on getting the God Fist scroll, and breaks dojos here and there, and eventually enters the King of Iron Fist tournament. He eventually found the scroll, but it only gives the overview of the ultimate style, which prompts him to re-enter the next tournament.
Line 45:
* [[Arrogant Kung Fu Guy]]
* [[Badass]]
* [[Badass in a Nice Suit]]: Notice how a lot of the [[Badass|badassesbadass]]es wear suits in battle?
* [[Badass Long Hair]]
* [[Deceptive Disciple]]: Although the killing wasn't planned from the beginning. Rather, once it became clear his master was going to be a barricade to his quest to martial perfection, down came the sentence of death, and said sentence's execution.
* [[Even Evil Has Standards|Even Kung Fu Arrogancy Has Standards]]: A subversion, whereas when Asuka accuses him for not treating her with respect, Feng replies that if he didn't fight at full strength, ''that's'' disrespect.
Line 54:
== Raven ==
 
{{quote| I cannot allow you to interfere.}}
 
A Canadian spec-ops agent sent to investigate the Mishima Zaibatsu. Everything about him is shrouded in mystery, except that he knows Ninjitsu for some reason.
 
Tropes associated with Raven:
* [[Asian Rune Chant]]/[[Hand Seals]]: He actually tries to teach Yoshimitsu how to do it properly. {{spoiler|This is only if the player chooses to intentionally (or not) lose against Raven in Yoshimitsu's ''Tekken 5'' rival battle and discontinue.}}
* [[Badass]]
* [[Canada, Eh?]]: Averted. There's ''no'' way you would have ever been able to figure that out.
* [[Cool Shades]]
* [[Dark-Skinned Blond]]
* [[Death From Above]]: Aside from [[Dynamic Entry|the below trope]], he actually has an attack ''called'' this.
* [[Dual-Wielding]]: Although he never uses them, Raven carries two knives with him. In the intro to ''5'', he makes short work of a Jack-4 this way.
* [[Dynamic Entry]]: Blind Ghost.
* [[Expy]]: Bears a striking resemblance to [[Blade]] and [[Demolition Man|Simon Phoenix]].
* [[Fingerless Gloves]]
* [[Flash Step]]: He does this in attacks and one pre-fight cutscene.
* [[Good Scars, Evil Scars]]: Has a large X-shaped scar across his face. [[X Marks the Hero]], perhaps?
Line 74:
** [[The Other Darrin|His original voice actor, Jack Merluzzi]], is best known as the guy who made [[Mega Man X|Zero]] sound horrible in ''Mega Man X7'' and the guy who made [[Mega Man ZX|Master Albert]] into ''the'' [[Magnificent Bastard]] of the series.
* [[McNinja]]
* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]]: [[Ravens and Crows|The raven]] [[Meaningful Name|is a bird symbolizing death.]]
* [[No Celebrities Were Harmed]]: He [[Lawyer-Friendly Cameo|looks suspiciously like]] Wesley Snipes (specifically, Snipes as [[Blade]]).
** Possibly subverted (depends if he's lying or not) by [[Word of God]], as Harada claims that Raven's design was just to impart the series with a [[Soul Brotha|"cool black guy"]] and any likeness to a celebrity wasn't intended.
* [[Nothing Personal]]: He ''only'' acts within his mission parameters. When he wins, one of his win poses has him say "It's just business. Don't take it personally."
* [[Only Known by Their Nickname]] [[Code Name]]
* [[Red Baron]]: The Dark Talon of Death.
* [[Scarf of Asskicking]]
* [[See You in Hell]]: His winquote.
* [[Shout-Out]]: His unlockable costume in ''5'' looks like a getup you can unlock for Ryu Hayabusa in the Xbox ''[[Ninja Gaiden]]'', right down to the [[Highly-Visible Ninja|color scheme]].
** It also looks like the outfit Blade wore in the comics when he was brainwashed by Silver Eye.
** His ending in ''5'' is Raven merely saying "Misson Complete" and then leaving the battlefield with style. This is very similar to the ending of ''[[Strider Hiryu|Strider]]''.
* [[Shrouded in Myth]]
* [[Red BaronSobriquet]]: The Dark Talon of Death.

== Emilie de "Lili" de Rochefort ==
 
{{quote| Shhh! Please don't tell my father.}}
 
Debuting in ''Dark Resurrection'', Lili is the only daughter of a rich tycoon company owner. Has a butler named Sebastian, and while she has the makings of a [[Spoiled Brat]], she's not quite and instead is a graceful [[Ojou]]. At one point, she was kidnapped by mafia who tried to get some ransom from her... but they didn't expect her to struggle that hard, so much that she develops her own lust of battle out of that fight. Unfortunately for Lili, her father abhors violence, and she still respects him, but at the same time, she just can't let go of her battle lust. Solution? Make excuses of traveling, then participate in street fights.
Line 113:
 
Tropes associated with Lili:
* [[Alternate Company Equivalent]]: Being a very wealthy blonde heiress who is a rival of a Japanese [[Tomboy]] [[Legacy Character]] who is a [[Distaff Counterpart]] to the main protagonist, she is one to Karin of [[Street Fighter Alpha 3]].
* [[Badass Adorable]]
* [[Berserk Button]]: Try not to let slip that you don't think much of her father. It's a quick route to the top of her "needs to be challenged" list.
* [[Big Fancy House]]: Holy SHIT. As any Monégasque will tell you, large property in the ''tiny'' principality is outrageously expensive, so with her ''mausoleum'' sized bedroom (let alone the rest of the mansion), Lili (or rather her papa) is ostensibly ''loaded''.
* [[Blood Knight]]: She wants to be one.
* [[Bratty Teenage Daughter]]: Though she's definitely gotten better.
* [[Combat Stilettos]]
* [[Cute Bruiser]]
* [[Daddy's Girl]]
* [[Dance Battler]]: Not Capoeira, but she uses a lot of ballet moves in her style.
* [[Fingerless Gloves]]
* [[Foreign Fanservice]]: She's from Monaco.
** [[Useful Notes/Monaco|Monaco]]: The incredibly [[Conspicuous Consumption|expensive]], exclusive European principality serves as the ''perfect'' homeland for her character as a young heiress and socialite.
* [[Girly Run]]: Observable while she's being used in Scenario Campaign.
* [[Hair of Gold]]: Despite veering very close to being a [[Spoiled Brat]] ([[Character Development|at first]]), she's still a generally good person.
* [[Hime Cut]]: She sports one.
* [[I'm Taking Her Home with Me|I'm Taking It Home With Me!]]: In Scenario Campaign, her reaction to Kuma and ''Mokujin''.
* [[Joshikousei]]: In her, Xiaoyu, and Asuka's endings in ''6''.
* [[Lady of War]]: In the making.
* [[Missing Mom]]: Lili's mother hasn't been seen or even mentioned so far.
Line 152 ⟶ 153:
* [[Underboobs]]: Her [[Stripperiffic|third outfit]] in ''6''.
* [[Woman in White]]
 
 
== Sergei Dragunov ==
 
{{quote| [[The Voiceless|...]]}}
 
A Spetsnaz officer working with the Russian government to investigate the Mishima Zaibatsu. He is feared on the battlefield as "The White Angel of Death", which could be a reference to [[wikipedia:Alfredo Astiz|Alfredo Astiz]].
 
Tropes associated with Dragunov:
Line 171:
* [[The Stoic]]
* [[Tessho Genda]]: His seiyuu ([[Street Fighter EX|Guile has betrayed us!]]).
* [[Visual Pun]]: One of the items you can equip him with in both ''Tekken 5'' and ''6'' is a sniper rifle, to be exact, a [https://web.archive.org/web/20060318202249/http://www.kitsune.addr.com/Firearms/Sniper/Dragunov_Sniper_Rifle.gif dragunov.]
* [[The Voiceless]]: He literally doesn't make a sound unless he's attacking or being hit (or, in the case of one of his ''Tekken 6'' winning poses, humming).
** ''Tekken 6'''s Scenario Campaign reveals that he is perfectly capable of speech -- he just doesn't do it very often (this was also revealed via [[Word of God]] prior to the release of ''6'' -- the same source also claimed that, outside of battle, [[Hidden Depths|he enjoys singing]]). When he does, it's often short, to-the-point sentences, or single words. The players still don't actually ''hear'' him speak, though, as all of the in-level dialogue of Scenario Campaign is text-based.
Line 178:
== Jinpachi Mishima ==
 
{{quote| My goal...My Goal Is to destroy all existence!}}
 
The former head of the Mishima Zaibatsu, Jinpachi is betrayed by his son, Heihachi, when he takes over his company. He tries to get it back, but Heihachi imprisons him in an underground compound called Hon-Maru. Jinpachi is imprisoned there for years and died. That is, until the Devil Gene resurrects him.
Line 185:
 
Tropes associated with Jinpachi:
* [[Ambiguously Brown]]: We know he's Japanese, but he's quite tan.
* [[Back Fromfrom the Dead]]: Resurrected by the Devil Gene.
* [[Badass Beard]] ''and'' [[Badass Mustache]]: And it's just as ridiculous as the rest of his family.
* [[Badass Grandpa]]
* [[Battle Aura]]
* [[Belly Mouth]]
* [[Big Bad]]: Not of his own volition though.
* [[Body Horror]]: His transformation into his Devil Form.
* [[Chikao Ohtsuka]]: His seiyuu. Does a dual voice with [[Takeshi Aono]] while in devil form.
* [[Death Seeker]]
* [[Fighting From the Inside]]: Not too successful, but he does manage to leave a few clues here and there.
* [[Glowing Eyes of Doom]]
* [[Incendiary Exponent]]
Line 202:
* [[Sealed Evil in a Can]]
* [[Ship Tease]] / [[Ho Yay]]: With Jinrei.
** [[Heterosexual Life Partners|Er...]]
* [[SNK Boss]]: For one, he's a Mishima, so you can already faintly imagine that he's just as broken as his son, grandson, and great-grandson. But that's just the tip of the iceburg. To clarify, he has a move that stuns you for about three seconds and immediately forces you into an upright position, regardless of your current status. Given the series' fabled penchant for being a [[Added Alliterative AppealAlliteration|juggle jamboree]], you can surmise that this is ''not'' a good thing. He can also [[Flash Step|phase]] to close the distance, and the weakest of his attacks takes off a sizable chunk of your health and is comboable. One of his attacks allows him to [[Energy Absorption|steal your lifeforce and heal himself]]. He also loves to charge up and shoot an [[Unblockable Attack]] fireball from the mouth on his abdomen. Normally, this isn't ''too bad'', but every once in a while, Jinpachi likes to change things up and fire a ''second'' fireball in tandem (you had better keep sidestepping). Even worse; there's a smaller chance that he'll just decide to resort to [[There Is No Kill Like Overkill|overkill]] and fire a ''volley'' of fireballs (we're talking about at least ''five'' in rapid succession). And if he combines this with the stun trick above, ''[[Oh Crap|there's nothing you can do]]''. '''''[[This Is Gonna Suck|Nothing]]'''''.
** As one half of the first set of minibosses in ''Tekken Tag Tournament 2'', he [[Nerf|loses some of his abilities]], specifically leeching health and stun stop. While he still has the fireballs, he can throw one ''from above.'' And he can combo juggles with aerial attacks. Luckily, you can play as him in that game.
* [[Super-Powered Evil Side]]
