Thank you for joining me in exploring the lore of Michelle Chang. Stay tuned for more journeys into the Tekken universe! - Ігри
This was a surprising emotional episode.
Mr. Chang choosing love and Michelle overcoming vengeance thanks to Nina of all people.
Amazing job.
Yeah exactly, the last person you’d expect to help change your perspective on things! The irony 😂

On the next episode of TEKKEN...
You are a man of your word sir. You said you were going to create AI inspired lore of Ms. Michelle Chang...and now you have! 😁
This has been the best Tekken Lore site I've seen on UA-cam. No snarky commentary, just the rich story that always seems hidden by even the game designers themselves. I hope you continue to do all the Tekken characters.
That's the Power of AI Content (Done Right) my Guy.
That leaves only Law, Jack and kazuya left
For T1, maybe, but I'm hoping he'll continue for the whole series.
@@travisfields157 don't think ahead of yourself
@@JohnathanSuperMachine92Mcbride Not understanding why I can't be hopeful, but sure, ok.
@@travisfields157 I rather wait for a surprise than hope
All that's left is the 1st Jack, Marshall Law & Kazuya Mishima.
Yay as a proud Michelle Chang fan I can say out loud I’m among the first 48 viewers!!!
The most Well made lore video until now. The animation was impressive. Congratulations!
Superbly put together bio for Michelle 🫡
Your AI skills are starting to reach legendary status. I can see the progression as each month passes.
17:03 This made me really emotional 🥺❤️
Thank you for your in-depth analysis and own interpretations of the fighters as of yet. I love how you honored her family and her heritage by also highlighting that revenge was only one side to Michelle's story. She was one of Heihachi's many victims. But she didn't let her trauma stay in her way. She's to this day one of Tekkens' most determined, fiercest yet still caring fighters. And I'm glad she carried this legacy over to her daughter, who also honors her heritage through her research and through advertising her work. This shows once again how crucial the Changs are to Tekken, and I can't wait for their return.
This episode made childhood me really happy. Thank you! ❤️
Hope I did her character justice for all the Michelle fans out there! I really enjoyed doing this one, she’s a cool character with an interesting tong story. But isn’t so popular as some of the others. Thanks for watching! 👊👊
@@TheLoresmithwho next law and kazuya and jack
U a Michelle Chang fan ? Isn't *Ganryu* her rival in the Tekken series?
@@joezar33 michelle vs ganryu
@@joezar33he is, but not in the first game, Tekken 2 onwards he starts to become a rival because he has a crush on her lol
First time seeing that pendant, I saw it in the anime, Tekken Bloodline. By the way, I really like that anime, which brought me back to the Tekken franchise. Also, thanks to you, I got to know better about Michelle Chang.
Nice, bloodline was an alright anime, I wish they focused on the other characters a bit though.
It was mentioned in Michelle's manual in Tekken 1 and you can see it in her ending in Tekken 2.
Amazing! Never have I wanted Michelle more in Tekken 8.
Hopefully DLC 🙏
Like all the other chapters, this was wonderfully done! I love how you not only focus on the main character but all the sub bosses too. Great world building! Michelle is such an underrated character who I feel has gone forgotten over the years. No doubt that Jack is the next chapter since we know for sure that Law and Kazuya are the final battle and Kazuya is for sure the final chapter. Here's to hoping that you do Tekken 2 because Heihachi's revenge so deserves a chapter.
Thanks for the comment! Appreciate it, the idea is to make the tournament a coherent flow from beginning to end, with all the character interactions in between. Jack, law and kazuya left from the main cast!
Omg I've been waiting for this specific episode!
I'm so excited! 😊 Thank you in advance ❤️
Another banger my dude, love this! Especially since Michelle's one of my mains in Tekken next to Nina and Jun/Asuka
Shame she got dropped, I never played Michelle/julia much but I always liked fighting her whenever I got matched up in online, fun moveset and not annoying.
That is a great story of Mitchell Chang of TEKKEN,sadness and lost father,entering the tournament fighting against 🥷 Kunimitsu and Nina Williams,even discovering pendant and also returning home after the tournament, i feel happy about her ending great story 🙂👍🏾
By the way, I like the references from TK8 8:39 and TK1 8:48
Can’t wait for a Tekken origin of Wang Jinrei 😁👍🏾
Interesting one! Strong fighter.
Don’t forget about Ganyru, Lee Chaolan etc
Law vs Wang

Beautiful! Thank you for making these! And please don’t stop!
Excellent work

Nice work, always enjoy your videos. Excited to see Kazuya vs Lee and maybe even Law vs Lee in your future videos.
Law vs Lee needs to happen, that’s a perfect fight, good shout actually 😅👊
@@TheLoresmith Happy to give you ideas, keep up your amazing work 👊
@@TheLoresmithlaw vs Wang tekken anime kazuya vs Lee
Really nice how you got the characters to sound like how they always sound in the games. Especially Nina herself 💜👍🏼
When i first saw Michelle ending in tekken 1, i was confused. I tried to figure out the ending until i watched Michelle backstory and how she joined the Iron Fist tournament, i get it now.
I never doubted her for a second, as my main character
This was a good story, I forgot that the origins of Ogre were not relation to Michelle’s family which are what led to Tekken 3.
Fantastic work! And so interesting about Michelle and the pendant!
Love the 80s and 90s anime style. Never knew that her father is chinese.
You're so good at these and this is so appreciated. Great closing too - Michelle's Tekken 2 theme is ofc one of the best Tekken songs of all time. THANK YOU FAM
👊
Thank you so much for this!! Michelle is truly underrated.
Hopefully we get one from Anna’s life and a different perspective told from her
Loving this series!
Phenomenal work as always.
This is great. Really enjoyed this one. Thank you.
Amazing! Love seeing Michelle's story explored she really is one of the most overlooked characters in the series! I'm excited to see what else you do!
Thank You for a very enjoyable video. Tekken lore is very enjoyable and this was a great watch on a decent character. Always believed the early characters had so much more depth than other series.
Love all your tekken lore vids. Can't wait for the next one 😄
Thanks for doing this, you are the professional
After you finish up this season, you have to do Tekken 2 at this rate
Wow.!
Great video! I appreciate the Tekken 4 style narration!
Ugh! Michelle needs to come back! Julia became sooooo BORING after Tekken 4
I don't care this is AI or maybe even different pieces of Anime put together, this is peak Tekken lore and it was beautiful. Each cutscenes felt like a natural adaption of Tekken Series which unfortunately has been going downhill since Tekken 6. Honestly, I would rather chose your videos rather than vouching for the official Tekken Storyline yet to come (if I know it is going to be a dissapointment).
Thanks for the kind words, I appreciate it, yeah I always saw Tekken, at least earlier tekken as having potential for more depth in character development and story
Shinnok: A rival amulet??
Michelle: This pendant is more powerful than you think.
Shinnok: I'll pry it from your cold lifeless body.
The progress with each video is just shows how much you love what you are doing! Awesome as always, better the the last!🔥💪
Thank you 🙌
I've been following your Tekken series since the first one and I'm really enjoying the work you've put to build the lore, expand upon it and add some twists that actually help a lot with the story as it goes. Keep going with this great work and, if your intention is to go through the whole saga, I wish you the best of luck for the long, *looooong* road ahead
I appreciate the support! 👊👊 I’ll keep going with these for sure, there’s a lot of good stuff to get into from t1 to t4 at least, then from there we’ll see but yeah that’s a far ways off.
Love this presentation and sound set up
This was so excellent. Phenomenal writing, execution, and storytelling.
This is so amazing. Id love to see Tekken 2 lore series
Amazing work!
Thank you for this 🙏, Michelle is my favorite Tekken character.
Thanks for watching, glad you approve! 😅👍
This was phenomenal !! More More More
I remember watching your Nina's video and I was blown away by how good written the story is. Loved everything about it.
Now going to watch Michelle's, just need to prepare my snacks first!
Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed it, I quite enjoyed this one tbh, forgotten character for the most part which is a bit of a shame, cool move set, I wonder if julia will be in 8
Excellent work !!!!
this is the best way of implementing AI into something useful and interesting I've seen so far, well done and keep up the great work!
The Tekken 4 narrator cements these.
Y'all did an fantastic job
🙏 thanks
This is amazing! I love that you used the same clip with Nina for consistency and Kunimitsu having a different language but understanding each other is so Tekken. I subscribed.
Thanks for the support! It makes no sense but I think it’s quirky and unique how everyone just all of a sudden perfectly understands each others language 😂 it allows the nation and culture of the character to shine through more also which is cool.
Michelle’s interaction with Nina is foreshadowing in a way, as Nina would have to deal with the reality of the loss of her own father in Tekken 2.
It could be argued that Nina didn’t deal with it or hasn’t had the chance since Ogre possessed her shortly after.
Or, could Nina’s cold pursuit of security by money and avoidance of a relationship with Steve Fox be her way of coping with the loss of Richard Williams?
Is she avoiding that pain by causing her targets to feel it? Is she deflecting that pain to Anna? 🤔
This is good character stuff! Definitely adds depth to her character, I’ll be sure to incorporate this! Thanks, good stuff! Honestly I didn’t plan Michelle’s father and Nina’s that way but it actually fits.
@@TheLoresmith Absolutely! I know most of the Tekken community doesn’t think as deeply about this kind of stuff, but your channel provides the space to do so. Thank you for that!
I also thought I was great how you pointed out that Nina’s words impacted Michelle to the point of growth, leaving her to self reflect.
Michelle is cool, but Nina is my favorite Tekken character. 😂 I just think she’s written off as “ice cold” by most but there’s a reason she never pulled the trigger when Steve Fox was her target.
And although, Nina has had multiple opportunities to k!ll Anna, (especially after defeating her in Tekken 5) she hasn’t. What’s stoping her? Ice cold is a facade. There’s still something there.
Very very impressive work on Michelle Chang's story here!😉😁👏🏿
Incredible!! I can't wait to have Julia Chang on the channel
I must see her in Tekken 8.
She has such a rich lore!
Nice work Loresmith! You’re doing great! I will be supporting your Tekken story episodes, from now till the end.😎🤍
Thank you! Almost completed the main roster of the first game! Only a few more fighters to go 👍
@@TheLoresmith you’re welcome! And Loresmith I sent yu a lot of messages, from Patreon I would be glad for yu to reply to them.😅😎👍🏾
@@TheLoresmithI cannot wait for Kazuya’s, episode next!😉😎Yu know how hyped I’am for my favourite character, Dorya.!
@@mrscaryman.955 Kazuya will be last, however. The lore of Tekken 1 ends with him.
@@user-zq1vh5cc8x facts.
Michelle was one of my favourite Tekken character. I wish she will return 😔 ❤️
Maybe one day! 🙏😅
The voiceover resembles Tekken 5 story mode. Very nostalgic.
Yu have evolved your animation, into an actual anime! Loresmith yu legend! From 17:05 ends at 17:16 this is a masterpiece to perfection for the end of Tekken 1 to Tekken 2 and more Tekken’s.
Awesome bro
Nice! The ending tied in so nicely. I hope you do one for Kunimitsu the most forgotten Tekken OG lol
😢 beautiful work
Nina: You're chasing ghosts Scorpion.
Scorpion: Challenge me at your own peril!!
Nina: Killing Shang Tsung and Quan Chi won't bring your family and clan back.
Crossover! 😂🥷🦂
Thank you for This!!!!
Just AWESOME !
This was so well done. Bandai Namco and the Tekken team should hire you ASAP
Great story telling. It's nice to see something about Michelle for once. I never knew Nina defeated her. Isn't the last bgm Lidia's stage music. :) I'll never forget when they had that saxophonist play Michelles theme during a tournament while showing fan art of Lidia on the screen. Happy to see when people care about a character they are constantly trying to erase.
I like Michelle's back story lore
I can't wait for you to do Kazuya's lore keep up the good work 👍🏿
THANK YOU!!!!!!
Id really like to see Lee Chaolan's story told next.
And man the artstyle when it comes to showing Michelle's Culture is absolutely beautiful.
The wedding of Michelle's parents and the Dialogue/Music was beautiful
Holy crap this is awesome! Sorry I missed the notification and enjoyed the Michelle Chang Tekken story. Still looking forward to the next Metal Gear anime episode
P.S., yesterday was my niece Sadie's 17 birthday on the day your video was posted
Nw! Thanks for watching bro, working on metal gear now! and happy late bday to your niece! 🎈🎊🎉
Excellent job dude, the AI picture are clean now and the narrations is still insane.
Beautiful video, keep this alive ❤
Keep up the good work can't wait for Kazuya
Awesome
I've never played the Tekken games, but that was pretty good. Fun use of game footage, too. 😅
Michelle is an awesome character I hope she can come back as DLC in Tekken 8. I believe she's the only character from the original T1 cast not in T8. Great lore video!
i like that idea but HARADA would question, how would Michelle's purpose play part in the 8th tournament now that Heihachi is dead & Kazuya being the dominant force, what's nxt for her & Julia moving forward & would she be popular amongst new generation of fans, since us old-school players believe she would be, plus it gives us options of characters to choose from & gives us an update of her life (via storyline terms) like Kunimitsu Sr (mother), she's not in good health but her daughter Kunimitsu Jr, is carrying on her purpose...
She could be given a zafina like role maybe, a mentor kind of thing, I don’t know, it is a shame that Michelle and Julia are gone, I actually enjoyed their move set, didn’t play them much but I always enjoyed being matched up online, she was tricky but never annoying to fight against.
The Dead or alive Series next omg this is Genius!!!
Thanks ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Long time no see her welcome back Michelle
Yes! Great character, not much is seen of her nowadays!
This is the best thing you can do for a Tekken fan, every Tekken fan appreciates your work, thank you very much for your effort, I'm eagerly waiting for your other videos... also Metal Gear Solid is good but Tekken much better… Thank you
Thanks! 🙏👊
_ Michelle Chang :
Tekken, Tekken 2, Tekken Tag, Tekken Tag 2.
Her sub-boss is Ganryu.
In the ending of Julia Chang from Tekken 3.
Free DLC fighter in Tekken Tag 2.
Jinpachi lore animated would be unreal❤😢
Yeah nice. I’ll have to cover jinpachi when I do heihachi seeing as they father and son
Omggg your awesome
Once again, an absolute banger. This makes me appreciate the characters that I didn’t play often. I always hated michelle because she had a hard difficulty spike in tekken 2 if she was on stage 4. Kicked my ass all up and down that canyon as a kid. Love your work, can’t wait for more ❤
Is this the official story? Its convincing because I know Michelle cant beat Nina even though i love Michelle. Nina is just too badass, and I love Nina just as much.
Yes this is offical story.
I adored this🎉
This was good.
We need Lee Chaolan next!
Tekken 2 soon
I feel so sorry about the Origin Story of Michelle Chang right here. Her Beloved Father murdered... Such a Tragedy. 😭😭
Hopefully you do a Marshall Law video soon!
All this was missing was how that simp Ganryu plays into things 😋
Haha the ultimate simp, he’ll definitely be featured in Michelle’s storyline soon, he’d probably let her just beat him up with no resistance. 😂
Once you get to Julia Chang, will you also give an explanation to how she and King II know eachother, you know, due to their interactions in Tekken 5 and how the series subtly implies they have a connection?
