### Type of AB

Power-Hungry Martial Artist

**Heihachi Mishima** is one of the two main antagonists (alongside his son Kazuya) of the *Tekken* franchise. He is the archenemy of his son Kazuya Mishima and is the grandfather of Jin Kazama.

He is an ambitious and power-hungry tyrant who's almost always responsible for the events of the games but his impact seems to decrease during the events of *Tekken 5* and *Tekken 6*, after his last defeat and false death after *Tekken 4*, yet he is still the indirect reason of the events in those games as well.

In Japanese, he was initially voiced by the seiyu Banjo Ginga in the first game, only to be replaced Wataru Takagi in the second game, and then by the late Daisuke Gōri from *Tekken 3* through *Tekken 6* and later, the late Unshō Ishizuka.

## His Brilliance and Evil Rankings

### What Makes Him Amazing?

* He has a tragic backstory, since him murdering Kazumi’s death was only to save himself, and he even showed tears after killing her. Also, the reason for the creation of his Karate Gi was to order to honor his fallen wife, which he wore that until he died.
* He cares for his two bears, Kuma and Kuma II, as he raised Kuma II after Kuma's Death and personally looked for him once he reclaimed his seat on the Zaibatsu in Tekken 7.
* He is very affable to Xiaoyu, who he has a genuinely friendly relationship with and trained her Panda to fight to protect her.
* He has moral standards and is genuinely honorable. He also has some pet the dog moments, as he treats women very respectfully and despises those who subjugate those who cannot defend themselves. He also rewards those who serve him or amuse him, though such acts may damage his reputation, and he hates misery and precariousness, inquiring he managed the Zaibatsu, he would never let things degrade to such a level.
* Though it's non-canon, in *Tekken 6*'s scenario camping level, Subterranean Pavilion, he tells Alisa to run and not to worry about him if the cave collapsed.
* Even if his comedic moments merely show how sadistic he is, he is still played for laughs from time to time.

### What Makes Him Heinous?

* He threw his son off the cliff and caused Kazuya to walk the path of evil, making him responsible for the events of the second game, as well as some of Kazuya’s crimes.
* He staged a coup against his own father Jinpachi and stole the Mishima Zaibatsu from him. Once he tries to take back the company, Heihachi imprisoned him beneath the Mishima temple, Hon-Maru, where he later died of starvation. This leads to him getting possessed by a demonic entity and wanting to wipe out all of existence.
* He unleashed Ancient Ogre onto the world, which resulted mass murders of fighters all around the world.
* He attempted to kill Jin Kazama by shooting him in the head once he defeated Ogre. This, however, awakens Jin's Devil form.
* He conducted an attack on a company building, and captured Jin during his tournament in order to lure Kazuya.
* He killed and destroyed some of Mishima Zaibatsu’s buildings and officials.
* He attacked Violet systems and Yggdrasil, and went so far as to kill Italian exorcists.
* He destroyed G-Corp's main building, resulting in hundreds of deaths.
