One of TEKKEN's defining attributes since its inception has been its close relationship with authentic martial arts. Not every fighting game nor fighting game player appreciates this connection and
attention
to detail... but real-life martial artists have been drawn to TEKKEN for years due to this level of authenticity. The TEKKEN development team have clearly done their research on a variety of martial arts styles and incorporated actual movements from these styles into the game. A Karate Sensei and YouTuber named Yusuke Nagano recently posted a video recreating some of
Lidia Sobieska's awesomely-animated techniques in TEKKEN 7. As Nagano explains in his video (below), many of Lidia's moves are found
in the style of Karate katas that he (and many others) have been practicing for years... How cool is that? Welcome to TEKKEN.
