Yoshimitsu is a character from the Tekken series who was first introduced in the original Tekken game and since then has returned for all subsequent sequels. 

Yoshimitsu has also carried over into Namco’s Soul series of fighting games as a major character, making his debut in Soul Calibur and returned for all of the sequels.

Biography[]

As the mysterious head of the Manij clan, Yoshimitsu steals from evil companies and spreads their wealth to the poor. Although he has a serious temperament, he also shows flashes of stupidity. Believing that his demonic sword is resonating with the large mass of fighters who are searching for Pandora in the Antarctic, Yoshimitsu travels with Raven in order to quell his sword's cries.

Appearance[]

Yoshimitsu wears a full bodied grey armor with red parts designed to look like exposed muscle tissue, as well as back armor that resembles a spine. Discarding the masks, he wears a menacing helmet with the appearance of a skeletal demon. His gauntlets are black and his hakama tucked into his greaves, although it is dark green with gold decorations. His CGI model in cutscenes and art for this game contains some slight revisions to the outfit, suggesting that the in-game model is a slightly earlier, less elaborate draft.

His sword is curved and looks more like a tachi than a katana. It doesn't have a handguard and glows with a green aura, indicating its now-apparent magical properties. The hilt is a greyish-blue color.

Personality[]

Yoshimitsu is a noble, humble, honorable and proud ninja who respects life and compassion from all of humanity, he is also a very wise leader of the Majin Clan and hates injustice and dishonorable warriors who attack the weak, he also enjoys fighting with honorable warriors to test his might and their own. He is also a very friendly to those, and will even help those in need of saving and danger.

Trivia[]

  • Yoshimitsu is the only character in the game who is voiced only in Japanese.
  • In the game, Yoshimitsu talks like Yoda from Star Wars in his win quotes to characters.
  • Yoshimitsu's primary outfit for this game is his Tekken 3 incarnation.
  • The Demonic Sword that Yoshimitsu hold seems to be calling out to the Satsui no Hado in Ryu and Ingrid's power, as he states to Ryu that his sword is calling out to his power. He also wonders why his sword is responding to so much dark energy from the South Pole where the Box is located.
