Tekken
Description
A fighting game series by Namco revolving around the "King of the Iron Fist" tournament. Also remains one of the most popular fighters around, unless you're the victim of a button-mashing opponent, or Tomonobu Itagaki. Some characters from Tekken appeared in the crossover RPG, Namco X Capcom. Yoshimitsu and Heihachi also appear as fighters in certain Soulcalibur games. In recent years, it has been prone to a few remakes with new characters and tweaked gameplay, much like one other popular fighting game. There's also a CGI movie called "Tekken: Blood Vengeance".

Characters
With emphasis given to those seen in Youtube Poops
- Heihachi Mishima - The villain of the series and Kazuya's father. He also wears diapers despite (or perhaps because) of his being an old man. Present in all Tekken games.
- Kazuya Mishima - Heihachi's son, and one of the main characters. Has a sinister laugh, and is seriously an evil prick. Like, the moment he ended up in Super Smash Bros Ultimate the first thing he did was drop Kirby off of a cliff! And then have a level 9 AI that beat pro tourney players!
- Jin Kazama - Kazuya's son and the main character starting with Tekken 3. He has a badass hoodie.
- Marshall Law - Bruce Lee knock-off and the fighting chef.
- Forrest Law - Marshall Law's son. Appeared in Tekken 3 and then vanished off the face of the Earth until Tag 2. Then he vanished again.
- Yoshimitsu - A ninja with a cool sword and a robotic arm. He has appeared in all titles of the series, and somehow ended up crossing over to the Soulcalibur games.
- Kunimitsu - Yoshimitsu's apparent arch nemesis who kinda just vanishes in story after Tekken 2. At least her successor pops up in 7.

- King - Wrestler who wears a jaguar mask. There have actually been two Kings in the series. A "King" has been in every game.
- Jack - A whole line of robots that have popped up in every game. One of them blew up right in Heihachi's face and only smudged his nose, even!
- Prototype Jack - Someone thought wheeling out the hat-wearing prototype was a good idea.
- Asuka Kazama - Jin's cousin. Despite this, Jin has accidentally used her breasts as a cushion on one occasion.

- Lars Alexandersson - Heihachi's illegitimate child who thinks he's a superhero and looks like a Naruto character. It got to the point where he actually became a Naruto character.

- Michelle Chang - Native American woman who vanished off the face of the earth after Tekken 2. She wants revenge because Heihachi, get this, killed her dad! Then she retired after 2. I mean she showed up in Tag 2 but still.
- Julia Chang - Michelle's daughter. She just can't pick a job and stick with it. She's a luchadore one second then a Twitch streamer the next. Tune in to Tekken 8 when she becomes an insurance loss adjuster! Also Ganryu has a huge crush on her.

- Angel - Kazuya's good side. Defunct after 2 because Kazuya fuckin' LOVES being evil.
- Devil Jin - Jin's evil side. He is a bizarre goat/bird hybrid that wants you to fear the wrath of God.
- Gon - Some dinosaur that popped up in Tekken 3 and never appeared again. But since he's from a prolific manga, this little shit's the reason Tekken 3 never got a rerelease. Thanks you little bastard.

- Jinpachi Mishima - Heihachi's father, and the final boss of Tekken 5.
- Snoop Dogg - Yes, seriously. He appears in Tekken Tag Tournament 2 as part of his own stage. He watches the fight while spittin' some mad rhymez about how much he loves Tekken.
- Eliza - Narcoleptic vampire chick who showed up in a free to play spinoff and was popular enough to appear in Tekken 7. Sure thing Namco okay.
- Akuma - Apparently he owes
NamcoKazumi a favour. - Kazumi Mishima - Heihachi's wife and thus, Kazuya's mom. Who looks absolutely amazing for...however old she is. Yes even in Devil mode. Don't be a wimp.

- Lucky Chloe - Her very existence set America's DEFCON to 1!
- Master Raven - Raven but a chick. We can dig it.
- Gigas - What if Jack was somehow even sillier?
- Shaheen - If Capcom can have Rashid, Namco can have their own Middle East rep too.

- Leroy Smith - You're never going to be as epic as this guy, a full on preacher with a bulldog who declares you foolish while pounding your head in.
- Fahkumram - Makes Sagat look positively inadequate. Think Bruce Irvin but with the proportions of The Big Show.
