Jin Kazama

Overview

Jin Kazama is the son of the Tekken video game and anime characters Kazuya Mishima and Jun Kazama. In the animated Tekken movie, he makes a cameo appearance as a young boy, several years after the conclusion of the narrative, but he plays a much larger role in the video game series, starting with Tekken 3. In the anime, he is voiced by Isshin Chiba. The depiction of events in the movie strays from the canon narrative of the games in numerous respects, including the circumstances behind the relationship between Jin's parents, and the story ends before he becomes a truly important figure in the narrative.

Live-Action Movie

In the live-action Tekken movie, Jin, portrayed by actor John Foo, is portrayed as the protagonist out for vengeance against the Tekken Corporation, whom he blames for the death of his mother. He enters the Tekken-sponsored King of Iron Fist tournament as a means to seek his vengeance, but during the tournament, is informed of several truths by Heihachi Mishima, the corporation's leader. Jin's father is Heihachi's son Kazuya, who raped and attempted to kill Jun Kazama, but she managed to escape and later gave birth. Jin eventually defeats his father in the final round of the tournament, and with both his grandfather and father presumed dead, becomes the new head of the corporation.
