Now that Jun is back, I really hope they expand Asuka’s story and tell us what relation she has to the other Kazamas and what role she is to play in the overarching narrative. In Tekken 5, it felt like she had major importance but every game after she’s just kinda been a gag character.
well, she was literally a Jun character clone to begin with, then became a gag character when Lili came in DR. as for your question about her relation with Kazama, obviously she's Kazama by blood. like Jun, she has the power that can ease the devil gene which was seen on her ending in Tekken 5. With Jun's return, the story will likely uncover more about the devil gene and very likely that the Kazama Clan and Hachijo Clan has been opposing each other since ancient times.
Such a coop out for the producers to make her a Lili rival gag(copy of SF’s rivalry with Sakura and Karin). Her original purpose in TK5 was to be the ‘new Jun’ and help heal her cousin Jin of the demon curse!
@@setoace Yeah, I mean I know she's his cousin due to supplemental material but the actual text (the games) hasn't explored Asuka's relation to the Kazama's at all. At best, it's a bullet point on a fan wiki, I want some actual storytelling surrounding the characters in the game. We're given practically no reason as to why Asuka is even present in these games anymore aside from having an additional character to play with. She doesn't have her motivation from T5 anymore and is just kind of... there. I want to know why Asuka is a character I should be invested in, what purpose she serves as a character to the story that is being told in the series, not just what limb she moves when I press a button on my controller.
An interesting thing to note is that since her actress is recording brand new lines, Asuka no longer sounds bored to death! Thank You, New Voice Direction!
Same. Michelle is my favorite character in the series, but she’s never coming back unfortunately. Luckily I live Julia just as much. I only need my Chang, Lili, and Lee. And I’m set.
Lol I think her character redesign is more exciting than Leroy personally. Her school outfit looks really good. The texture in the sweater is impressive. They should have done something different with Leroy's glasses or his hair or something, he looks too much like T7
Asuka is always a fun and exciting character to play and do combos with. I hope Tekken 8 goes all out with the alternative costumes maybe have other Namco characters as costumes. Jin and Asuka does Pac-Man or something amazing like that. I hope they bring Gon back. Cool video. ^_^
Easy to learn, great visuals, great voice, everything a newbie will love.. even I loved how easy she is to play when I first started playing Tekken... Very defensive type of character that has a ton of counter hit and evasive attacks.. not so good on high level but definitely a solid character both gameplay wise and art wise..
@@lmntsgames3848 This character archetype in general (not the gameplay but design) is just absurdly popular in Japan especially with weebs in that country
@@seekingseaker Yes I did, and no they're not the same. Idol cheering follows the beat of whatever songs that are played, and done so usually when the singer asked for it. People usually just wave sticks arounds. If you look up a more professional concert, the only thing you could hear is clapping like in the end of this video
@@kingcoong hmmm.... this reaction for Jojo's Bizzarre Adventure All-Star Battle was an exception then (czcams.com/video/qhv1bPd9yNo/video.html). What do you think?
@@diamondgirls6541 it was but that doesn't say much cuz her T7 one sucked too. The rage arts suck in general these guys have no idea wtf they're doing.

Asuka was my first main, while some might not be as hype for her I SURE AM!
LETS GOOOOOO
(I hope they give her and Jin/Jun a special intro
Same here. All the Kazamas should have with each other.
Hyped! Asuka is great!
I am as well. Believe or not she was one of Japan's most requested character
Asuka also my main too! Im so hype!
It makes sense they'd unveil her for Evo Japan. Now we just need Julia Chang and I'm going to be locked into Tekken for years to come.
Michelle*
A bit funny that they reveal Leroy in Japan as well despite what happened to the previous Tekken EvoJP LOL
@@RaveSault what happened?
Same. Michelle is my favorite character in the series, but she’s never coming back unfortunately. Luckily I live Julia just as much. I only need my Chang, Lili, and Lee. And I’m set.
@@vichy97th I want Michelle too!
They really gave Asuka Gon's Pitou beatdown move LOL
LMAO
HOW DID I NOT THINK OF THIS LMAO
F1+2 was a super busted power crush. The fact that it's her heat engager is wild.
Not even close to busted
Its a high lol not even close to busted at all
It's cuz they took away wall bounces
I like Asuka 🙂
Hello cute blob!
Cute blob :3
Me too blob 😊
she'll definitely be my main if josie isnt in
Now I’m stuck between her and Jun, the fighting g styles!
Lol the crowd seemed dead silent when it came to the Asuka reveal 😅
They already got a Kazama they wanted
Asuka is boring thats why
its because they nerfed her.... personality
Because shes meh
Lol I think her character redesign is more exciting than Leroy personally. Her school outfit looks really good. The texture in the sweater is impressive. They should have done something different with Leroy's glasses or his hair or something, he looks too much like T7
Asuka is pretty! It came out well! It's a cool hitting feeling!
I love these POVs!!
Asuka is always a fun and exciting character to play and do combos with. I hope Tekken 8 goes all out with the alternative costumes maybe have other Namco characters as costumes. Jin and Asuka does Pac-Man or something amazing like that. I hope they bring Gon back. Cool video. ^_^
She’s my main ❤🔥
Asuka be manifesting Jajanken energy
So Feng or Lili is the next trailer?If we follow the lore that is.I'mma be selfish and pray for both
Tbh i think the Real Og Tekken fans were probably more excited to see Asuka more than "The Drip Master" 💯
Everyone claps afterwards. Lmao
Gotta love Japan.
Oh is that why they sound so dead while it was playing? Respect thing?
why I'm more excited than the crowds there?
Because thy are japanese😅
This hype is so lit fr
I’m waiting for Eddy and Kunimitsu
Looks like someone's been watching too much SAO.
Man the rage art is a hunterxhunter reference lol
@@mrmerfeo4320 from wat eps?
@@katoblue6282 Pitou's beatdown
@@RaveSault ehhh maybe bro
@@katoblue6282 about 99% sure it is, tekken 8 has been full of anime references
Thanks for the roster update
asuka voice sounds funny
It makes sense for Asuka to be revealed in Evo Japan
Absurdly popular character in that country
Easy to learn, great visuals, great voice, everything a newbie will love.. even I loved how easy she is to play when I first started playing Tekken...

No.1 i'd say
Jun should have been saved for Evo. The crowd would have went ballistic
they made her thiccer and thiccer and thiccer every time! she already looked perfect in tekken 5
The attacks or her appearance?
down bad
@@heelzhinkaiger360 appearance
Just the oversized sweater. Sure she'll look great in alternate costumes.
@@sidzsotight But this is her default attire.
KOF에 엘리스 공격 보는 느낌? KOF 아랑전설 엘리스랑 SF 사쿠라 살짝씩 섞인 느낌?
My sister's fav! 😄😄
Still waiting for Dragunov...
He’ll make it in 💙
Did you see the lekoy trailer?
who is lekoy?
@@rogdawg123 your mommy
Ngl if that's how they were gonna do , they should have saved Kazuya , Jin for this
Asuka is the most popular Character in Japan, so it totally makes sense to show her on EvO Japan
Waiting for Joel perez tekken 8
Asuna? Who is this Asuna you speak of?!
Asuna Nazama
SAO😂
Asuna yuki
Asuna is jins daughter
@@Sa.d.bo26 thanks for making me think of a horrific AU where Tekken and SAO are connected Asuna was somehow born to Jin and Xiaoyu.
C’est tellement dommage que ce sont les mêmes cinématiques d’avant combat et d’après combat 😢
all characters have summersault?
She is so cute
I want them to add Christie 🤧
Like like
Imagine if sol bad guy showed up?
Damn, just one guy being really loud?
Her appearance got a bit "cuter" and her moves got A LOT flashier.
baguette
You can tell the crowd is disappointed,Devil Jin would have blown their f minds
Tekken 8 is so boring even when it hasn't launched yet because it looks like tekken 7 so much.just adding heat system and new RA..omg..
@@Spidey2J well we I haven't played it yet so I'm not jumping to conclusions I just don't care about Asuka oops hihi
Might not have devil jin since he can control devil. Might not
There isn't going to be a devil Jin.
@@Spidey2J Heat changes the entire game
あんま盛り上がってなくて草w
まぁ飛鳥は100000%出るだろうから、サプライズ感0だもんね。
αテスト中だから既存キャラのみなのかなと。βテストで新キャラが来るのかも
Yo the crowed is dead 💀
Ugh not her lmao 😂🙄
The crowds pretty weak
Yeah, that was awful. Hype died the moment they saw her outfit lol. She looks great though!
Japan is pretty conservative. That's as much energy as you can get. They only express their excitement on livestreams, through chats.

ニダニダ聞こえるけど韓国人もいんの？
Probably some korean tekken fans went there
I'm going to beat every single one of you with Asuka. But, I will say, I hate her rage art
Yeah t7 rage art was better
@@diamondgirls6541 it was but that doesn't say much cuz her T7 one sucked too. The rage arts suck in general these guys have no idea wtf they're doing.
@@TheRizzWhiz but we are comparing apple to apple here.
Not a fan of Asuka at all (huge disappointment)
Well, i am
