Unlike most Mishimas, Devil Jin is well rounded and varied: while Heihachi excels in pressuring the opponent and Kazuya in performing heavy damaging punishers, Devil Jin is good with both, making him a powerful force. He shares the same love for fighting and creepy places with Bryan Fury.ĭevil Jin is a powerful demon with supernatural powers and an awesome fighter with great strength that is a force to be reckon with.ĭevil Jin's fighting style is an updated version of Jin's Tekken 3 and Tekken Tag Tournament style, thus switching back to a Mishima-style gameplay and retaining many of their signature moves. Being chaotic, Devil also protests against his own creator and former master Azazel and wants his power for himself. During the same mode, Kazuya speaks to Devil Jin as the entity he used to fight twenty years ago and since Devil Jin used to be part of him he wants that power back. He never mentions if he remembers that himself and Devil Kazuya used to be simply a single Devil and lived inside Kazuya's body. Instead Devil knows well about Jinpachi, Heihachi, and Kazuya Mishima. Devil Jin is also a bit clueless about the Kazama family and is surprised of the negative feeling caused by Asuka. Although Jin knows Kuma and banished him, Devil doesn't recognize the bear, nor does recognize Hwoarang. In Devil Jin's Scenario Campaign mode, Eddy Gordo thinks Jin is sick and Nina Williams has to intervene, telling Devil that he will give the actual Jin back. Unlike Devil Kazuya, Devil Jin does not seem to remember everything about Jin. In the Devil Within minigame Jin has also no control over his constant transformations and are caused by the evil ruins of Ogre that awake the demon who wants to destroy everything (the player of course can chose when to use Devil Jin). Jin's control of the Devil is non-canonical to the actual story, where Jin has absolutely no control over Devil. His identity is in fact his own and not the demon, who despises Jin and doesn't know who Xiaoyu is (he only feels like he should know her). In Tekken: Blood Vengeance and Violet's ending in Tekken Tag Tournament 2, Jin Kazama appears to be able to have complete control of his Devil form. Like a typical demon he thinks of mortals, including Jin Kazama and his body, as weak. He is also shown to be a very sadistic individual, as he has a habit of laughing at the suffering of his foes during his win animations. He seeks to achieve ultimate power, and will do what ever it takes to achieve it. Devil Jin was originally the half Devil, who was almost destroyed by Heihachi Mishima when he threw Kazuya Mishima into the volcano in Tekken 2.ĭevil Jin is extremely arrogant, aggressive and brooding. Devil Jin's appearance remains close to his human form, but with added demonic traits, such as forward pointing horns, tattoos, bones protuding from his forearm and he is paler. His ability grants the user the ability to do two midair jumps.ĭevil Jin represents Jin Kazama after the Devil Gene, an inherent gene of the Mishima family, takes over him. Ultimate as a legendary class shield-type spirit, being the enhanced form of the Jin Kazama spirit. Also in Devil Jin's non-canonical Story Mode, Jin's identity is already lost forever.ĭevil Jin appeared in Namco X Capcom but without wings and horns, like in the original Tekken Tag Tournament.ĭevil Jin appears in Super Smash Bros. In his non-canonical ending in Tekken 5, he absorbs Jinpachi's power. In the story mode for Tekken 5/ Tekken 5: Dark Ressurection Story Mode, Devil Jin is the secondary antagonist, after Jinpachi Mishima and his demonic spirit. Devil Jin made his first early appearances in Jin's Tekken 3 and Tekken 4 endings, as well as in the non-canonical Tekken Tag Tournament.
