Asuka Kazama

  

 

BIO:

Asuka has been taught the Kazama Style Ancient Martial Arts by her father since she was an innocent child. Due to her sense of justice, she likes to intervene in any troubles and got to be known as a meddler in her city of Osaka. One day, when she came home, students of her Kazama dojo looked troubled. She found out a Chinese Martial artist appeared and had fought her father, who was now hospitalized with severe injuries. A few days later, Asuka was told by a detective of the Hong Kong international police this fighter would compete in The King of Iron Fist Tournament. Asuka made the decision to enter the tournament.
 

 
Asuka Kazama involved herself with the King of Iron Fist Tournament 5 in order to defeat Wei Feng, the man responsible for her father's injuries, but to her dismay, he was nowhere to be found. Asuka returned to ordinary life disappointed. However, the peaceful nature of ordinary life didn't last long. Knowing the ringleader of wars engulfing the world to be none other than her relative, Jin Kazama, Asuka once again joins the King of Iron Fist Tournament 6 to capture Jin.

Asuka was a late (and welcomed) replacement for Jun Kazama in Tekken 5. It was cool to see Jun's style back in the limelight, especially since we hadn't seen Jun (or anyone that used her style) since Tekken Tag Tournament. It was a tall order, but Namco presented Asuka with a cool, spunky personality, an awesome moveset and an original appearance... all of which noticeably a lot different from Jun's. Asuka is a great character all around and even brings some comic relief to the Tekken series at times.

On a side note: For some reason, a lot of "beginner" Tekken players seem to flock to Asuka (or Jun). Then, they decide it's a good idea to spam her sweeps, among other basic moves involving the kick buttons. It's a phenomenon. In turn, I'd like to take this time to say, to any beginners out there.... STOP SPAMMING!!! You'll keep losing if you keep spamming. Asuka has so many awesome moves, there's no reason to only use 5 or 10 moves. Learn Asuka's full moveset (or any Tekken character's moveset) and you'll thank me later.
