Yeah and we must hear some stories about Tekken 2 characters very soon including Jun Kazama, Lei Wulong, Bruce Irvin, Wang Jinrei, Devil, Angel, Kunimitsu and Armor King!
I love the hidden, detail, at 22:47 of Kazuya Transforming into full or half, devil mode when he fought Yoshimitsu, with ease, I cannot wait for Kazuya’s episode story to release.🎉😁⚡️ your doing so well! With your Tekken Stories Loresmith.
God I love you used the TEKKEN 4 song, fetus. This is how TEKKEN 8 should have took still a serious approach… I’m hopeful one day, will enjoy these because I was wondering more deeper for some characters I don’t usually use
Yoshimitsu, a legend in the Tekken Universe, is an awesome and truly a marvel. I can play him in any Tekken game and mop the floor with my opponents. Love to see the background story of Tekken's Kazuya Mishima as well as the next episode of Metal Gear
I’ve watched all of these videos for tekken now. I absolutely love your formatting, the use of proper tekken soundtracks, and the art you are using. I’ve been playing tekken for more than 25 years and you definitely do its rich lore justice. Please continue. Can’t wait to see kazuya’s lore.
I have a feeling kazuya’s is going to have be pretty lengthy, guy has so much lore to cover with his family, even for just his origin and the first game 😅 but it’s gonna be fun to cover, there’s are some gaps to fill, like his relationship with lee growing up for example and his youth, we’ll see how it turns out.
This AI snapped with the art bro. Nice story too, you out this together well. Takes away so of the mystery and actually have him some personality and not just an enigma. Good on ya
YESSSS!!! I requested this Tekken lore episode and am so glad you came through bro! Yoshimitsu had such a lack of coverage in the Tekken 8 story mode so am glad he getting spotlight from your web series!😎
Thanks for watching bro 👊 I don't even think he was in the story mode at all except once in the tournament bit lol. Have you seen the new Tekken 8 dlc trailer though? looks like yoshi is going to be featured more in eddy's dlc story which is good.
@@TheLoresmith We also ain’t heard from Wang Jinrei. Any plans to do a Tekken lore episode on the OG? We should have more insight on him and Jinpachi’s friendship and his relation to Xiaoyu imo. Plus there’s him knowing Feng Wei master. So it something worth exploring.
Damn dude, this was so freaking amazing. Yoshi and Kuni is like my family in my mind. 😅 Got me interested into making similar content for my original characters. Definitely inspired!!
That's awesome man, i'd love to see what you do if you decide to pursue your own content, yeah the modern Manji Clan weren't expanded on much in tekken, if at all, so had to create a few more clan members that would make sense in relation to yoshi
It's a shame that Namco never did anything quite like this. These videos are excellent! I've just binged them and subscribed. I'm looking forward to a Kunimitsu video if you choose to make one. There are a lot of questions around her origin, including an idea that she is (or was) possessed by a kitsune. If you ever make a video that references her T2 ending, it's commonly believed that she is testing out Yoshimitsu (the sword) on a large stone that she randomly finds in a forest, but that stone is actually meant to be an unmarked gravestone for a grave that is hidden right there in the forest. The idea is that the sword is said to possess the ability to cleave a person's soul in two, and so by using the sword to cut through the gravestone, she is destroying the deceased person's soul. I have no idea who that person was or why Kunimitsu would want to do that to them after they're already dead, but somebody went to a bit of trouble to hide the grave, presumably to prevent this exact outcome. It would be really cool to see this play out in some way in one of your videos.
Really enjoyed the video and nice work fiction Tho as a Yoshimitsu main/cosplayer i noticed few lore things missing. Just wanted to point few things. IT"S not a whine i assure You - No mention of SoulCalibur universe where characters named Yoshimitsu also exists and explains few things, such as Why Yoshimitsu blade is cursed since it's tainted with energy from Soul Edge - We learn in Soulcalibur that 'Yoshimitsu" is a title given to leader/wielder of cursed blade but also we have no information about what other name Tekken' Yoshimitsu had before taking the leader mantle. - Speaking of it, no mention of previous leader who most likely was also named Yoshimitsu, someone was probably using the cursed sword, I don't think they just left it storaged.
Thank you 🙂I’m not sure the two series are set in the same universe, like for example Akuma in Tekken 7, does that mean SF and Tekken are set in the same universe? I did mention how the clan has been around for generations while not explicitly stating the soul calibur lore but at the same time trying to acknowledge it, a balance, like saying are they connected or aren’t they. Had to make the story make sense in both scenarios. Tough one😩 The sword being in limbo is more of a temporary period to find a suitable owner strong enough to wield. Old owner retires it, clan finds new owner which takes time, sometimes many years as they have to get it right after all it being in the wrong hands is bad. I called him yoshi from that start as the story is told in past tense, i maybe could have been more clear about him being given the title once he gets the sword. But yeah before he got the sword his ‘real’ name was something else, I’ll apologise for not specifically adding that detail in I can see how it could cause confusion! Same for kunimitsu, members are given names or titles after they join the clan which I think is a cool detail to add. I also didn’t want to take too many liberties and actually make up a name for the guy as people may not have liked what name I picked, yoshimitsu is a naturally mysterious character, I tried to keep that same aura in the story. Expanding on the clan and adding a couple side characters revealing the clan has a naming system is enough.
@@TheLoresmith - True no one really knows if SC and Tekken are REALLY connected xd and if they were only more questions would arrise, And no need to apologise because no one is offended. just pointing few things as a matter of peaceful discussion.
Watching this unfold: 10/10 Yoshi TTT theme drops: Beyond score I always had a head-canon that there was always A Yoshimitsu, not THE. Maybe his SC iteration isn't canon to Tekken, but otherwise it would make sense. So they guy before him, even with a different prefix'd name, used to be "The Yoshimitsu." Perhaps this tradition had been going on far before SC. And so the lineage of Yoshumitsu (the sword) wielders descended to the present (Tekken) day.
Yeah thats how i see it too, there were many yoshis, i tried to make it so the story could work whether SC is canon or not, was a tough one deciding which way to take the story.
@@TheLoresmith I love the hidden, detail, of Kazuya going full or half, devil mode when he fought Yoshimitsu, with ease, I cannot wait for Kazuya’s episode story to release.🎉😁⚡️
This one has got to be my favourite so far and for the most part makes sense lore wise, I can even say you fleshed Yoshi and Kuni even more than what Bamco, gave them such a dynamic narrative, I ever do wish Bamco for once did a Tekken anthology anime series with different perspectives from each character, something I thought of myself for the last 20 years 😅.
Excellent expansion on his story. Finally something besides the Mishima's. Only little detail I noticed, is it doesn't mention how he lost his hand and had it replaced with a mechanical one by Dr. Bosconovich. Maybe Season 2 will mention it.
@@TheLoresmith I looked it up. Says it happens after the first tournament while rescuing Dr. Boston bitch and his left arm was wounded bad, so with the help of Bosconovitch, his arm was replaced with a mechanical new one.
@@JaceErlanyeah that’s right, so dr bosconovich gets taken by Mishima zaibatsu when kazuya is in charge, then yoshi rescues and loses arm before Tekken 2 tournament. Nice
This Tekken story of Yoshimitsu and Kunimitsu Story is amazing even it's interesting that Yoshimitsu and his ninja clan infiltrating places and after 2 fights with Ganryu and Kazuya Mishima i give This story a 2 👍🏾👍🏾 I hope I get to hear more stories 😁 of Tekken
I didnt realize Gray Fox speak Japanese lol. In all seriousness this was a great video as always and also i would like to thank you for making Kazuya's voice younger its a great small detail
@@TheLoresmith AS a Tekken Player I've notice certain things including voices and grunts. The voice you used sounds just like Kazuya in Tekken 1 and Tekken 2. I really applaud you for doing this showing how you are truly cared of the content you make
Awesome job man! We're now at the half way point with the main 8 characters. I'm thinking JACK will be the next chapter, followed by Michelle, then Law, and ending with Kazuya. Regardless, your work is excellent!
Played Tekken 1 like 200 years ago as a child on PS1 , can he still fly high and do the helicopter attack 😂 ? That's a very good job with this lore , respect 👏 !
Yeah, Kazuya Mishima has gathered his devilish strength to win the 1st King of Iron Fist Tournament in order to get revenge on his father Heihachi Mishima for killing Kazuya's mother Kazumi Mishima.
Not to mention, Kazuya had also competed in multiple previous martial arts tournaments all over the world, becoming an undefeated world Martial Arts champion as a result. However, the only scratch on his record was a draw against Paul Phoenix before the King of Iron Fist Tournament. 👊 🥋
Fascinating lore! Do you make all these stories yourself or get them from Tekken itself? I haven't gotten too deep into Tekken lore so I don't know haha
The stories are based on the very brief character bios in the manuals and character prologues/intros/outros etc. I just expand on them and flesh them out. 👍
Damn bro you’re good at what you do you need a Netflix Series ASAP. More Tekken Life stories. Keep them coming I watch them all. Yoshimitsu don’t Play, Kunimitsu Didn’t stand a chance. Remember when it’s Master VS Student the Master ALWAYS wins 💯👌🏽💪🏽💪🏽🔥🔥🫡🫡
Unfortunately yeah, those new gen guys will be a while, but personally I’m excited to get into characters like Jin, hwoarang and xiaoyu. Will get there eventually! 😅👊

thanks, I'm not really sure, there was mention of that in the tekken 1 manual, but Harada said otherwise on twitter years ago about him being human. But anyway, I feel this backstory allows the characters to gain more depth.
I can't wait to hear the next character's story soon! Michelle, Jack, Law or Kazuya? We get to see Yoshimitsu's true face at the beginning of the video before he wore the mask.
Robert Belgrade being the narrator for this takes me back to Tekken 5/DR, still my favorite among the Tekken games. After all these years, his voice hardly changed. He still sounds like SotN Alucard.
Yeah more stories including Kazuya, Heihachi, Jack, Michelle, Law, Lee, Armour King and Ganyru. And very soon Tekken 2 stories about Jun, Baek, Angel, Devil and Lei and Tekken 3 Jin, Xiaoyu, Eddy, Julia, King II, Bryan and Hwoarang! Keep up the fantastic work!!! You're extremely interesting! 👍😍🥰
I would love to see history videos on Soul Calibur characters. Like with the Yoshimitsu from that series, along with Siegfried, Sophitia, Taki, Mitsurgi, Kilik, Xianghua, Ivy, & Maxie.
Great interpretation of Yoshimitsu''s lore! Btw, do I understand correctly that in your take he was around since the time of feudal Japan? Perhaps due to the power of his blade?
I wonder if Yoshimitsu will become "evil" if he can't control the other sword he has in his possession (possibly a piece of Souledge?) So Kunimitsu, or Kunimitsu 2, will have to rescue him from it, thus redeeming herself within the Manji clan.
Those are good ideas! That's what i took from it, it takes over the user if they lose control, that's why it needs a strong leader. Tried to expand on and leave the kunimitsu arc open as in the game she's just a generic villain, I had to expand a bit on the clan as they don't get much spotlight other than the soul series. I thought it would be cool to see what they're like in a modern era.
At least now I understand the rivalry between Yoshimitsu and Kunimitsu. I always thought she wanted proof, that she would be the better leader of the Manji Clan. But sadly betrayal is betrayal. It´s hard to forgive, even by close ones. Also thanks to Bosconovitch I can say, the Majin Clan is a clan of modern Cyberpunk-Ninjas.
Always wondered how Dr. Bosconovich was connected with Yoshimitsu, since I remember something about him appearing in his tekken 3 cutscenes. Now I know! Can't wait for more of these lore videos, eagerly awaiting the Mishimas, Hwoarang, Bryan, Ogre and more!
@@TheLoresmith Woah didn't know that either! See this is why we need your videos! :D I think there is some connection between Bosconovich and Bryan as well. Also Alisa is like a daughter to him, kind of like Pinocchio/Astro Boy. Now that I think about it he is pretty integral to the core story.
They should give Yoshimitsu his own Ninja Gaiden style spinoff series.
he's technically a samurai
raven tho... that's your ninja
That would be crazy ✅

Voices of Announcer, Manji Clan members, Ganryu, Kazuya and Kunimitsu are AI?
Good shit bro, keep em coming!
Please make stories with all the Tekken characters 🤩
Much as im loving these Tekken stories, I'm just waiting on that next Metal Gear episode 💯🐐👍🏿
that will be the next project I am going to be working on! 💪
Another Lore! Just finished watching Nina's and now this?!
Thanks for the awesome video!
I can't wait to hear the next character's story soon! Michelle, Jack, Law or Kazuya? We get to see Yoshimitsu's true face at the beginning of the video before he wore the mask.
Maybe in that exact order!
Michelle Chang's Tekken 1 Story it is.
Beautiful work.
Robert Belgrade being the narrator for this takes me back to Tekken 5/DR, still my favorite among the Tekken games. After all these years, his voice hardly changed. He still sounds like SotN Alucard.
I'm usually aginst AI but this is really well made, And I just thirst for Yoshimitsu lore videos lol
The music😩
Love these! Please keep em coming!
Yeah more stories including Kazuya, Heihachi, Jack, Michelle, Law, Lee, Armour King and Ganyru. And very soon Tekken 2 stories about Jun, Baek, Angel, Devil and Lei and Tekken 3 Jin, Xiaoyu, Eddy, Julia, King II, Bryan and Hwoarang! Keep up the fantastic work!!! You're extremely interesting! 👍😍🥰
these origin videos are amazing.
and is that the narrator from Tekken 5 i hear?
I would love to see history videos on Soul Calibur characters. Like with the Yoshimitsu from that series, along with Siegfried, Sophitia, Taki, Mitsurgi, Kilik, Xianghua, Ivy, & Maxie.
The lore of Yoshimitsu is a God send!
Great interpretation of Yoshimitsu''s lore!
Btw, do I understand correctly that in your take he was around since the time of feudal Japan? Perhaps due to the power of his blade?
Yeah he’s old because of the blade, I thought that would be neat addition. Adds to his mysterious nature and strange way of speaking too
@@TheLoresmith indeed, he actually speaks old Japanese. And this take fits well with his mistique.
Yes you did it man I so happy you cover yoshimitsu origins 😊
Can you do ancient ogre/true ogre next? This was awesome
Wait for Tekken 3 Story episodes. Tekken 1 story episodes nearly finished to go for Tekken 2 story episodes.
These are so good. Keep these coming
cool video man, interesting lore.
Yoshimitsu from soul caliber is the ancestor of the one in tekken aswell
Thanks for dropping!
worth watching, eagerly waiting for next episode
Thank you, wasn't sure with the longer episode length, was a lot to cover with kuni and manji but glad you liked, means a lot
I wonder if Yoshimitsu will become "evil" if he can't control the other sword he has in his possession (possibly a piece of Souledge?) So Kunimitsu, or Kunimitsu 2, will have to rescue him from it, thus redeeming herself within the Manji clan.
Those are good ideas! That's what i took from it, it takes over the user if they lose control, that's why it needs a strong leader. Tried to expand on and leave the kunimitsu arc open as in the game she's just a generic villain, I had to expand a bit on the clan as they don't get much spotlight other than the soul series. I thought it would be cool to see what they're like in a modern era.
@@TheLoresmith Kunimitsu have a life outside fighting. Its stated in her bios that she's into mending air conditioners for a living.
The voice of Alucard narrating my favorite Tekken character. What's not to love?
About damn time!
Can't wait for Michelle's anime lore 🥰
Almost finished, soon! 🙏
Maaaaannn I NEED A PART 2 where BRYAN COME AND ROCK HIS WORLD 😂🤣😂💪💪💪💪💪💪💪 ENCORE PART 2!!!!!
im excited to tackle Bryans story when it comes, screws yoshi over for no reason! savage😂
@@TheLoresmith 🤣😂🤣facts
I Love this channel!!!! Please make more
New Tekken vid soon, sorry for long wait 😅👊
i miss tekken when it focused on the characters that made the lore of the world
Make the next story about Asuka Kazama.
I can’t wait for Kazuya’s lore 🔥
I’m a day 1 Kazuya main, he’s my favourite, character ever since Tekken 4! And I promise yu, Kazuya’s episode, will be epic as heck.!✊🏾⚡️
Youshimisu song a whole bop 😶🎶💃🏾
At least now I understand the rivalry between Yoshimitsu and Kunimitsu. I always thought she wanted proof, that she would be the better leader of the Manji Clan. But sadly betrayal is betrayal. It´s hard to forgive, even by close ones. Also thanks to Bosconovitch I can say, the Majin Clan is a clan of modern Cyberpunk-Ninjas.
I was hoping Kunimistu would show up and they DELIVERED
First tekken character I ever used and only
Always wondered how Dr. Bosconovich was connected with Yoshimitsu, since I remember something about him appearing in his tekken 3 cutscenes. Now I know!
Can't wait for more of these lore videos, eagerly awaiting the Mishimas, Hwoarang, Bryan, Ogre and more!
dr bosconovich made the first jack! which is something i didn't know before i looked into it.
@@TheLoresmith Woah didn't know that either! See this is why we need your videos! :D
I think there is some connection between Bosconovich and Bryan as well. Also Alisa is like a daughter to him, kind of like Pinocchio/Astro Boy. Now that I think about it he is pretty integral to the core story.
Another fantastic video from you🎉
