An anime based on the fighting game franchise Tekken, specifically the first two games. Originally released as a two-part OVA, the parts were edited together for the western release as a movie.
Multi-billionaire Heihachi Mishima is having a fighting tournament on the island which is the base of his operations. This attracts many fighters, including Jun Kazama who has come investigate Heihachi's suspected illegal activities and Heihachi's son Kazuya, who wants revenge for being left for dead in the past by him.
Tropes used in Tekken the Motion Picture include:
- Adaptation Decay: The movie's plot is loosely based on Tekken 1, but with the inclusion of characters such as Jun and Lei who didn't debut until Tekken 2. On the whole, there are many changes to key aspects of the story, especially with regards to Lee's role in the tournament and the fact that it takes place on an island (rather than across the world).
- An Axe to Grind: Michelle tries to kill Heihachi by throwing an axe at him. He catches it with his teeth and bites it apart.
- Big Ol' Eyebrows: Members of the Mishima family have some ridiculously huge eyebrows.
- Convection, Schmonvection: Lava flows that are setting the whole island on fire? Just a minor inconvenience to those of martial arts!
- Deal with the Devil: How Kazuya survived his fall sixteen years ago.
- Demoted to Extra: Plenty of the fighters from the game.
- Designated Girl Fight: Nina and Anna, unsurprisingly.
- Did Not Do the Research: There is much concern about Heihachi's creation of "multi-gene organisms". Most organisms are multi-gene organisms. (This may be a byproduct of a Blind Idiot Translation.)
- Dropped a Bridge on Him: Anna gets eaten by a dinosaur.
- Everything's Better with Dinosaurs: The invisible dinosaur bio-weapons.
- Giving Someone the Pointer Finger
- Heroic Sacrifice: Jack sacrifices himself that Lei, Jane and Dr. Boskonovitch can escape the doomed island.
- Island Base
- A Minor Kidroduction: The film opens with Kazuya and Jun as kids, just before Heihachi throws Kazuya down from a cliff.
- Self-Destruct Mechanism: When Lee realizes that he will never inherit Mishima Conglomerate, he starts up one.
- Shower Scene: Provided by Anna Williams.
- Speed Stripes: Used on many fight scenes.
- Title: the Adaptation
- Use Your Head: Kazuya and Heihachi butt their heads together during the climactic fight.
- Visible Invisibility: Used to show the experimental dinosaur bio-weapons.
- X Meets Y: Street Fighter II the Animated Movie meets Mortal Kombat.
