Ling Xiaoyu is a character from the Tekken series who was introduced in Tekken 3 as a 16 year old girl and has returned in every subsequent release. She has become one of Tekken's most popular characters since her debut, appearing in movies and award shows since her debut.

Biography[]

Xiaoyu is a brilliant Chinese Kempo fighter who uses Hakkesho and Hikaken as the basis of her fighting style. She is acquaintances with Heihaci Mishima, which is how she first met Jin and fell in love with him. When the Devil Gene inside of Jin awakened, Xiaoyu, deeply concerned for Jin's well-being, vowed to always be by his side. She may act like a child at times, but she is strong-willed and assertive. Unable to bear the thought of Jin traveling alone to Antarctica, Xiaoyu insists on going with him.

Appearance[]

Xiaoyu wears an orange sleeveless modified qipao with white feathers on both of her shoulders, white shorts with black and yellow lines on both sides, and an orange tutu shoes with black line designs.

This outfit is a minor change outfit from Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection from pink to orange and becomes her primary outfit in Tekken 6 until it became as one of her customizations in Tekken 7.

Personality[]

Xiaoyu appears to be childish, energetic and friendly to her schoolmates including Miharu and Jin and later Alisa. During the events in Tekken 6, her role becomes similar to Jun Kazama and wants to save Jin from being evil while in Scenario Campaign as the boss in Mishima Polytechnic, Xiaoyu shows her concern to Jin and does not want him to make any awful things as the latter does not want her concern and angrily makes her to fight him stating that she will not take it as his answer and he's not going anywhere. 

In Street Fighter X Tekken, Xiaoyu maintains her childish and energetic personality but being obnoxious to other female fighters that she needs to face. During their rival battle, She shows to be angry to both Chun-Li and Cammy to think they will seduce Jin with their tramp clothes and to steal it from her. But Chun-Li introduces to Jin in a flirtatious manner making herself angry further as Jin halts her to stop of what she was doing but roars like a cat to them when Jin tells them that he's not interested to their warrants.

Story[]

Intro[]

Jin's plan was to use the power of "the box" to unravel the mystery surrounding the Devil Gene. Xiaoyu felt that his plan was too risky and attempted to change his mind, but Jin was adamant about his decision. But if he was going to go after "the box" regardless of her warnings, Xiaoyu was determined not to let him do so alone.

Rival Battle[]

Rivals: Chun-Li & Cammy

Location: Urban War Zone

Ending[]

Jin is transformed by Pandora's power when he approached the box, and even Xiaoyu is forced back when she tries to run to him. The box's glow surrounds the two fighters and draws the evil energy out of Jin's body. After regaining consciousness, Jin sees that the mark of the Devil Gene is still present on his shoulder, and he renews his oath to break free of the curse.

Gameplay[]

Techniques[]

Ling Xiaoyu does Hakkesho (which is also known as Piguaquan), and Hikaken (which is known as Baguazhang) martial arts styled fighting. Her style is very graceful in the way that she uses it, and in this game they added a bit of a pink aura-like magical addition to when she will preform number of certain attacks.

Since every character is in the Street Fighter world, they had to be creative with Tekken's movesets (since it is in 2D). And they did a great job, and were very creative with her 2D moveset, and is a great character to play with (in my opinion).

Costumes[]

Original[]

Swap[]

Rumor has it that when Chun-Li came to arrest Jin, Xiaoyu felt jealous and insecure compared to the more mature Chun-Li. She took on a new look to prove that she can be just as appealing as the Interpol detective.

Alternate[]

Word is that Xiaoyu prepared this costume for an audition for a kids TV show. The bright and happy colors really suit her personality!

Trivia[]

  • Sakura share some similarities with Xiaoyu, namely in their attraction to the main characters (i.e. Ryu and Jin). They are also the first "schoolgirl" characters in their respective series.
    • The only difference between the two were; Xiaoyu is constantly searching for Jin since their debut in Tekken 3 and as of Tekken 7, Xiaoyu is unaware of Jin's current condition (who is weak and comatose following his battle with Azazel) during her constant search from his sudden disappearance while Sakura is always encounter with Ryu whenever they met.
  • Is one of the stars of the official (though not fully canon) CG film Tekken: Blood Vengeance alongside Alisa.
