Comment:
Jin's father, Kazuya, was a cool design, and Jin definitely followed in his father's footsteps at his debut. Namco really delivered when they needed a new "Hero" for Tekken 3, in a way to replace Kazuya... In Tekken 4, Jin's design became even more unique, not only because of his story, but of the advancements made to his move list and fighting style, and was visibly no longer just a replacement for Kazuya. His awesome moves in Tekken 5 re-defined his design even more... Yep, Jin's just a bad ass. And the fan-girls around the world just love him for some reason.
