Yoshimitsu tekken 7
With the evil now bound to his sword, Yoshi increases immensely in strength and power albeit at the cost of his control. Luckily, Yoshi had just enough strength left to bind this newfound evil to his original sword (also named Yoshimitsu) and not allow it to take hold of him completely (phew). Yoshimitsu has spilled so much blood on his crusade to extract revenge that the evil now chose him to take hold of. Yoshi eventually finds Nightmare but due to so much evil around them both, the sword attempts to bind itself to a new owner.
Along the way however, Yoshi finds more and more death (which are actually the clues), as the being known as 'Nightmare' is the current owner of Soul Edge and boy, he really can't control the evil within the sword. Once Yoshi begins his quest for Soul Edge, he ends up touring Europe while finding clues about the whereabouts of the sword he requires. He begins his new quest to find the sword and achieve his goal of vengeance. With that, he remembers the legend of a cursed sword that will ultimately enable him to exact his burning desire for revenge and live to see another day. As he does this, Yoshi dwells on how he can achieve his revenge if he could not even get close enough to this evil lord in order to do so. With fire still burning hot in his heart, Yoshi tends to his wounds and fixes the prosthetic to his now missing right hand. He then promptly escapes and lives to fight another day. Somewhere along this route, Yoshi discovers a prosthetic hand waiting for him among the ruins and debris that lay under the castle.

Knowing full well that this is a battle he can't hope to win, Yoshi retreats through the tunnels and underground passages of the fortress. Yoshi ends up losing this battle against the lord and his army, ultimately losing his right hand in the process after having it sliced off. Revenge can be a noble cause, but rage can blind any man - no matter how skilled they are. Unfortunately, the lord doesn't take rejection lightly and had his entire village, along with his clan, executed while Yoshi was distracted enjoying the niceties life offered.Ĭompletely enraged at the sight of his home destroyed and his kin slaughtered, Yoshi quickly takes up arms against the lord of his region all on his own. Being one of the ultimate ninjas in his region, Yoshi should have smelled that something was off. Yoshi, being the humble practitioner he is, declines the offer from said lord but is still offered to stay in his fortress for a few days to take part in its many pleasures and luxuries. Seeing the skills, of not only his leadership, but that of the Manji clan itself, a noble and rich lord extends an invitation to Yoshimitsu (Yoshi for short) in order to enlist the services of the clan for his ideals. Yoshimitsu begins his story living with his original Manji Clan hidden deep within the foothills of Mt. Yoshimitsu as he appears in Soul Calibur IV. The Tekken series has been confirmed to share the same universe as the Souls series, so to understand Yoshimitsu's life we need to start here.

However, there will be articles on almost every main character throughout the series so stay tuned! That franchise being Tekken, and Yoshimitsu is the first to be discussed. To start this off, one of my favorite franchises seems to be the way to go. With this in mind, I decided to start my very own series entitled 'The Story So Far', which aims to dive right into the lore and stories that make our favorite characters come to life. The thing is a fter 20+ years, I still know absolutely nothing about him apart from what I could piece together from his end videos, game manuals, and the occasional wiki thread. He was also one of the few characters in Tekken to wield a weapon, his trusty sword (also named Yoshimitsu), which (if timed correctly) can leave opponents drained of more than half their health!
He is one of the few characters to have a unique look every time a new installment is released, followed by tweaks to his fighting style.
