Im having too much fun, watching the fights, with all camera work.

People are too much cryptic, Jin just want to talk.

It's good to be in the meat of the action now, and Ling Xiaoyu finally being included was long overdue (with her Tekken 5/6 outfit ... I'll allow it).
I must admit, I was miffed that my girl Nina lost to Xiaoyu in their fight considering the two are very different in skill level and Nina's overall history with the tournemant seemed brushed aside - it doesn't seem like she was being controlled by Ogre either like in the game. (I guess that's more to do with my bias, though...)
But, overall, another good episode.

Nina vs Xioayu and Xiaoyu wins is she the romantic interest of Jin?

Hwoarang vs Jin is great too and Jin won obviously but Heihachi his grandfather is angry that Jin is still soft or good hearted instead of being a blood boiling killer i guess because he wants Jin to trigger the Devil Gene to attract Ogre into the ring

Isn't it quite canon in the game that Xioayu is Romanticly interested in Jin? Dreams about him and stuff. Still Don't think much have happend more than that. But if not played the games it can not be easy to know that ofc. But Nothing will go anywear in this show.

They did my main (Marshall Law) so dirty. I wanted to see him fight. I'm crying.
I can't believe he was defeated by freaking Julia, and she isn't even wearing her native American outfit.

Since this is Tekken 3, that was Marshall's son Forest.

She is his official love interest and most of the time her entire motivation is to protect and save Jin. They tried to have near-incest with his cousin in part 5, but Harada quickly lost interest and the cousin drowned in a yuri-bait rivalry with the Monaco blonde (It depends on the version, but the author of Hagure Idol managed to popularize this ship a lot).

hey xiaoyu gets some lines too. I'm happy that at least some people other than Jin and family are at least getting some lines. I enjoyed the fights and I'm not going to lie when Jin did the block I was like "oh he did the game thing" but would it have killed them to show the other fights even if it was only 10 seconds of each. My dude Yoshi didn't even do anything.

Well, canonically they're friendly rivals, but thanks to the manga, it's become a shipping meme. I don't know how a possible adaptation of the 5th part will take this into account.

Hwoarang Jin was probably the best fight we've seen in this anime yet, imo.

Heihachi pressuring Jin like that because he's too soft and worries about the other ones is worrying though, but it doesn't seem like Jin will fall into his trap even though he still has that Ogre obsession of course, anyway his fight against Hwoarang was great, Xiaoyu's moments were also pretty good

Agree, worst moment of the series even if for now it is still enjoyable. Always disliked Julia since 20 years and counting, never found anything interesting in her and her fighting style, unlike Marshall / Forest Law who has always been amazing to control.

Nice focus on Xiaoyu including the callback to her desire to open a theme park. That anime-style Tekken 3 ending clip was so good, including her savagely beating up Heihachi when he didn't actually satisfied her request.

Jin has shown mercy to Hwoarang and his grandfather disliked it. Kuma vs Paul rivalry hinted, but will it be actually shown?
