I know I said this before, but her charge glow in Tag 1 is much creepier than in Tag 2. If you slow it down and pause at the right moment, the pink-purple charge effect looks like a human face.
Unknown's concept before Tekken Tag 2 is such a curious one. Every fighter up to that point has trained their mind, body and soul to the extreme and then some to become the best, and then this unknown character, mysterious yet somewhat familiar to the Mishima family, uses their martial arts just like they do with an imposing supernatural presence (both figuratively and literaly, because of the wolf spirit behind her). Such a character would be extremely unlikely to even exist, and yet there she is... this "anomaly"... What convinces me that Unknown is a "thing" that shouldn't exist is that she is fought after the sub-bosses (who are often Mishimas or other characters with a somewhat close relationship to them), where the familiar faces of the cast end. Even her stage music reflects on the ominousness of this character with the faint voices and the simplicity of the music at the start that give the feeling that whatever you're fighting is simply not supposed to be there. Anyway, this is just me just over-analysing a 1999 video game. Merry christmas, everyone! And thank you for this TAS, Maina!
As I understand, Tag 1 was originally envisioned as an actual canonical entry, with Unknown planned to be Jun's sister for some story beats, but somewhere along the way Tag 1 became a dream match, non-canon game, and Unknown was left in this sort of limbo, surviving into the final game as we know her. _Then_ she was retconned again into Jun's alter ego proper in Tag 2... which is also not canon lmao
I honestly wish Namco did more things with that Wolf Spirit that possesses Unknown, like is it a variant on the Devil Gene, a standalone spirit, a malevolent offset of something from Wolfkrone?
I've kind of thought of the Wolf Spirit as its own "Devil". Perhaps there are actually multiple "Devils" but a person with the Devil Gene can only interact with one "Devil".
Incredible, one of your best works. I love how you snuck in some auger (heihachi's taunt) here and there B) Thanks for this Christmas gift, enjoy your holidays!
@@Zer0defence By this point in time I'd just be happy to have the wolf as an item you can equip to have it hover behind and mimic your character in tekken 7/8.
*Ninety five* percent combos with no Rage, no walls, no balcony/floor breaks, no Max Mode, and no FADC. Bruh. I know Julia gets "special" treatment, but what was the start of that first round? I didn't realize until now that Unknown's intro in Tag 2's arcade mode references her ending in this game.
No difference at all when you play her in solo or tag mode. The damage she causes is still the same. But I will give you one name being familiar for you. DURAL of Virtua Fighter game series.
Not quite. The difference between them is Mokujin using each character's technique in one round. For example, it uses Kazuya's in round 1 then using Yoshi's in round 2 in the first stage. Then in the next stage, in the next round, it uses the different character's technique. As for Unknown case, she is Dural of Virtua Fighter franchise.
@@effendikwantan1863 Yes, but she doesn't have predetermined moves but also copies the moves of random characters in the game that's why I said that she is very similar to Mokujin who also does the same thing
WOW that sick that you can change characters style every 2 or 3 seconds and still continue the combo I amazed bravo :) 9:34 HA 9:55 DAMN 10:1010:28 AAAAAAAND thats a WRAP 11:25
Love the TAS videos! Been watching forever and they just keep getting better and better. Keep up the great work man. Also Kazuya got a face full of something else at 6:45 😂
9:48 went with the beat, that's always cool

To date, the most impressive TAS video I've ever seen. Creativity level is just off the charts.
never knew there was a difference between standard and boss unknown. interesting stuff!
Unknown: "I want to wish all of my Tekken Fans a Merry Christmas!!"
3:45 a thing of beauty lol
I know we all were waiting for this, the first Unknown TAS was so epic, this one was as much. Greatest Christmas pressie! 💜🖤🎅
6:44 kazuya's got a bit of purple on his face now

Possessed or not, that’s still his wife

Nah, 7:47 was preventing Jin from having brothers and sisters
@@Lenoh that was Kazuya, you donut.
@@AtomicGolem Do you know how genetics work or are you going to keep coming up with insults like "donut"?
I'm dreaming of a purple Christmas.
Then your Santa... Who is actually purple may not gift you but take things from u
More like purple Halloween
Don't dream as it's a pagan festival
Imagine being able to do this in actual matches. TAS is just a blessing
What is TAS ?
Iirc it's tool assisted speedrun since this make combo easier and pulling sidestep much faster
Love to see this Unknown video for a beautiful Christmas. It feels like a purple Christmas💞😍😘

The wolf is with Groh in Soul Calibur lol

*"Followed by a massive Spreadie to the Gods"*
I can read that in Ozzy's voice
Another Christmas, another awesome TAS with Unknown!
Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas out there by the way, stay safe as always~
Thanks. U 2 ☺️🙏
This Unknown is so awesome. I wish the Wolf Spirit would have been behind her in Tag Tournament 2 :(
Amazing job as always maina Highway
11:29 Unknown's Ending is so Damn Badass Amazing!!!
Basically the only cut scene without the weird music track attached
죽지않게끔하는 딜계산과 콤보가 예술적입니다. 테그를 오래했던사람으로 아주 멋진 영상입니다
Nice Xmas gift here. All the beauty of TAS becomes even more beautiful when it's Unknown doing it.
All Tekken Characters: MERRY CHRISTMAS
Me quedé impresionado jajaja está super genial como te la sabes de todas todas con todos los movimientos ... Eres el #1
理想的なアンノウンTASでした!投稿ありがとうございます
Is it strange that I really like Unknown? Her design is nuts! 😮💙
No, she is a interesting character that I want to see more of. Especially this version of unknown.
I never thought I'd see the day where Unknown does Lei's Ha-Ha Steps
(0:56) That reverse tea bagging...
She disrespected him so hard she went off screen.
6:13 BRUTAL
that's a counter cross punch in boxing..cool
OOF
King’s stage music is so good. I’m glad you let Jack-2 tag out lol
This is just too good of a Christmas present ^^
Who else here likes this Unknown?
I like this version!
I love this unknown. Maybe she could come back with an original moveset including the wolf spirit thing?
Me even though, I didn’t play the tekken games yet. I love her design because it’s a interesting look and how she barely speaks is creepy.
@@Zer0defence By this point in time I'd just be happy to have the wolf as an item you can equip to have it hover behind and mimic your character in tekken 7/8.
@@PassionWagonYT that would be badass. But who knows what could happen.
항상 재미있게 잘 보고있습니다. 응원합니다!
Teabagging Xiayou style never gets old
7:47
Jun finally takes her revenge
one of the best TAS videos I seen
I'm going to use my Christmas wish to wish for more Unknown TAS videos in the years to come. Merry Iron Fist Christmas everyone!
Wow another awesome Unknown TAS? Awesome! Hope in the future you do Tag 2 Unknown if ever possible. Nice going on this one Maina
Finally got to hear Kings stage theme!
Love the new intro, Maina!
Damn it’ll be Christmas morning where I live when this premieres, but I know this’ll be awesome anyways.
실시간으로 바뀌는 전투 화려하고 멋지십니다.
Can't help but wonder if there's any other fighting game character in any other game that's as much of a TAS playground as Unknown is.
In stage 1 the win pose transition is so smooth in round 2
So sick man like always keep going and Marry chrismas all
*Ninety five* percent combos with no Rage, no walls, no balcony/floor breaks, no Max Mode, and no FADC. Bruh.
I know Julia gets "special" treatment, but what was the start of that first round?
I didn't realize until now that Unknown's intro in Tag 2's arcade mode references her ending in this game.
크리스마스에 멋진영상 보고가요 😄
Have a very Maina Christmas
2:03 taking the haha step to the next level. LOL
Holy molly.... I rlly enjoy this unknown tas
Has anybody noticed that the blue hit effect is an animated sprite head opening its mouth in pain?
Its also her effect in Tag 2. Its so sick
Didnt know Unknown knew ultra instinct
10:23 what did she actually do here? An exclusive move?
If I may ask, what's the difference with this boss version of Unknown? Damage output? Stance order starting with Jun?
No difference at all when you play her in solo or tag mode. The damage she causes is still the same. But I will give you one name being familiar for you. DURAL of Virtua Fighter game series.
what happened to Anna when she got hit by Nina's poison breath? I've never seen that interaction before?
This was a trippy TAS
Merry Christmas 🎄
I like your TAS videos👍
this legend likes every positive comment . happy holidays bro
So Boss Unknown is Unknown on steroids? This will be interesting!
There's not really much difference to be honest, boss Unknown just regens their red health.
정말 위대합니다 선생!
재밌게 봐주셔서 감사합니다. 😊😊
The whole gameplay goated🔥🔥🔥💯
화질 좋네여.. 엄청 잘만드셨당
How the 1999 graphics were more prevalent than 2017s?
Thank U 4 this awesome video. And Merry Christmas 2 U and every1. ☺️🙏❄️🎁🎅🎄
7:47 Kazuya: "Oh... I now know what it's like to be Jun."
Jun: "Sucks, doesn't it?"
So what's the difference between the regular and Boss version
To my knowledge, normal Unknown doesn't have the wolf spirit behind her.
3:45 ???: 초. 딩. 심. 리~
Unknow it's like watching Mokujin how different it is that she can copy any move and change it during the game.
Not quite. The difference between them is Mokujin using each character's technique in one round. For example, it uses Kazuya's in round 1 then using Yoshi's in round 2 in the first stage. Then in the next stage, in the next round, it uses the different character's technique. As for Unknown case, she is Dural of Virtua Fighter franchise.

It's just Unknown with regen, but seeing her again is always nice.

잘 보고 갑니다
언노운 플레이가 이렇게 몰입도 잇을줄이야 처음 알았네요
I love it u do taunt Xiaoyu she cute 😳💘
Paul as a Stage 7 sub-boss? That’s weird, then who’s the second hidden character?
Could be an alternative take on the Ogre vs Paul story in Tekken 3, but instead it's Unknown he fights.🤷
I think Paul came out because he was the first character in the order of Tekken. Because now Unknown(Boss) seems to be alone. 🤭🤭
@@mainaHighway How to play as her without a partner? Is it Action Replay code?
@@sandro2355 Play Tekken Tag Tournament on ps2 and Keep unlocking Characters and play her in one on One
Great birthday present for me today haha 😂
Merry Christmas have a TAS tic day
Beautiful as per usual. Btw, what is the name of the girl mascot for maina’s channel that shows up on the bottom right corner of the video?
Yuri Sakazaki, KOF
Wtf, eres el dios de este juego mis respetos :3
Love the TAS videos! Been watching forever and they just keep getting better and better. Keep up the great work man. Also Kazuya got a face full of something else at 6:45 😂
He went into the Unknown on that one. ;)
Sus 📮
A face full of the Unknownussy 🤣🤣🤣
Hmm, how different is the boss version? This could be interesting.
She constantly regains health, for starters.
Higher damage and she regens her own red health, similar to how solo characters work in tag 2. Not much difference.
3:09 .............She CRACKED Anna's THERE........
4:38 Lmao i remember asking for chain throws on Michelle
"Harada who is Unknown?"
HARADA: Unknown is Unknown
"....thats not the answer i was expecting but okay"
My brothers and I would play Tag 1 and guess what fighting style Unknown was using
Phenomenal video
10:56 Another costume of unknown
Merry Christmas
Merry christmas
Worth the wait
3 Jacks in a row for Christmas !
I didn't think this was humanly possible..
Oh it's a TAS video not a real human. If he or someone else can perform all this in a real match then that would be insane.
you're not the only one. The first time I saw a TAS video I thought it was person as well. I was like "who the hell is this TAS person?!"
Unknown is cannon...
In my heart.
How did you get Unknown by herself while others are two partners in arcade
Cool it's like music to my eyes
Unknown vs unknown would be op
2:40 Absolutely hilarious 😁😁
how do you choose movelist for unknown? never got the chance to play het
