Kazuya Mishima is a character from the Tekken series. He is the main protagonist of the first and seventh game, in which he seeks revenge against his father Heihachi for throwing him off a cliff when he was younger. As the series progresses, Kazuya becomes antagonistic or anti-heroic (depending on each game) as he seeks more power, which puts him at odds with his son Jin Kazama.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Kazuya was announced as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate at E3 2021.

Attacks

Kazuya has a unique fighter ability called Rage. It is indicated by Kazuya being enveloped in a red aura after reaching 100% (25% of his total health in Stamina Mode). In the Tekken series, Rage increases the damage output of his moves, which is emulated with a 1.1× damage multiplier in SSBU. It also grants access to the unique Rage Drive, which will end the Rage state when executed. There is no time limit on the Rage state, although it will end if Kazuya receives more than a certain amount of damage or misses Rage Drive repeatedly. Rage will end when (Number of missed grabs or down specials × 110) + (Damage received during Rage × 17.6)) ≥ 650. In context, with no missed Rage Drives, it will take 36.93% to force Kazuya out of Rage. Rage can only be triggered once per stock.

Trivia

• Kazuya is the only fighter to lack a victory theme. Instead, the announcer from Tekken 7 simply says "Kazuya Mishima wins" as a callback to the Tekken series lacking victory themes during a character's win screen.
• Kazuya is currently the only fighter in the entire series whose game of origin is not playable on a Nintendo console.
