- —Jin Kazama
Jin Kazama is the main protagonist of the Tekken series. He appeared in the 95th episode of Death Battle, Ryu VS Jin, where he fought against Ryu from the Street Fighter series.
History
Jin Kazama was born the son of Kazuya Mishima and Jun Kazama, and lived a peaceful, solitary life with his mother until his 15th birthday, where a mysterious green-skinned warrior attacked Jun. Believing her to be dead, Jin swore revenge, choosing to go to his grandfather Heihachi for training. Jin would eventually face the warrior again at the third King of Iron Fist Tournament and defeat him. Unfortunately, Heihachi betrayed Jin and had him gunned down afterward, but this activated his inherited Devil Gene, allowing Jin to escape his grandfather. Angered by it, Jin swore to take down the Mishima family, eventually becoming the head of the Mishima Zaibatsu Corporation after winning the fifth King of Iron Fist Tournament. But Jin still constantly wrestles with the devil’s blood rushing through his veins. Should he lose control or find himself in a dire situation, the Devil Gene will manifest through Jin, turning him into a fighting force to be reckoned with.
