5 and 6 are just a few months apart, while 7 happens right after 6 (barely a week after).

Wait, the whole "conquer the entire world while bombing the shit out of everyone + leadership thrown out and changed two or three times" happens within a few months between Mishima Z. and G Corp ? Including Kazuya visibly aging by at least a dozen years ?

Well, if nothing else, that does explain the likes of Xiaoyu and Asuka. (what it doesn't explain is Jin going from "power is everything" to "I changed my mind, power isn't everything"...)

If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

Yes, pretty much. The only major timeskip in the series is between 2 and 3, which are two decades apart. 4 to 7 all happen in the span of two years, and if anything 8 won't be too far off from 7.

So is Leroy Smith some kind of mogul of New York City or what?  First the H&M rebrand and now he owns his own Starbucks.

Even Lili has a pet influenced from his pet Sugar.

How long do you think they'll make us wait for Yoshimitsu?

Love how it's called Salt.

Probably not too long. I'm very sure they will go Yoshi and Bryan back to back.

Momotaro

I was expecting her to be the next character after Asuka.
But I would never expect her to be so breathtaking.
I love how brutal and deadly she is, and still keeping grace and feminity.

So, are Asuka and Lili just discount Sakura and Karin or are Sakura and Karin just discount Asuka and Lili?

They incorporated Sebastian's move from TT2 into her new screw mechanic. Nice touch.

Ugh, he absorbed more of Baek's moves... RIP
Not a fan of Hwoarang tbh.

It's natural for a student to imbibe moves from his teacher. Think of it as 'the student has become the master' sort of shtick.

Kirishima

Have they not specified, I would have thought this is a completely new character.

Tekken 5 Hwoarang will always be my favorite design of his.

speaking of wich, T8 doesn't have any new character, I mean I hear that Harada is telling players that the roster of T8 would be bigger than SF6 yet all the characters so far are returning ones without a single new face except Jack 8 which doesn't even count meanwhile SF6 have a handful of new faces

So apparently this was not meant to go live after a couple of days but Bamco Europe's division effed up the reveal on Instagram.

That being said, how is it that Bryan's design remains consistent and recognizable, whereas Hwoarang has gone through some radical changes as if they are trying to make him the next Yoshimitsu?

Not really feeling the enhanced ki thing for everyone that isn't a superhuman.  Maybe it's decades of seeing regular people just hit hard so that's on me.  Yes, Bryan is half cyborg so it sorta makes sense but at what point can he manifest fire into his fists like he's effing Ken Masters.

I can just picture Eddy Gordo suddenly will green and yellow electricity into existence simply by his idle stance.

What the hell is radical with Hwoarang's costume lol?
He is now a mixture of Baek and return to form with his Taekwondo.
Thank GOD he lost the stupid eye-patch.


Also. Bryan looks like Bryan. Glad to see him.
