00:00 Welcome to WatchMojo and today we're taking a look at the Top 10 Tekken Bosses You Can

00:11 Be Sure Will Flatten You If You Aren't Prepared.

00:22 Number 10 - Heihachi Mishima - Tekken

00:30 Of the few times where Heihachi acted as the final boss, this is definitely where he was

00:34 the most difficult.

00:35 What's funny is that it's not even the character himself that makes the fight so

00:38 difficult.

00:39 The very first Tekken game came out in 1995 and the controls haven't aged well.

00:44 The advancements in modern gaming and controls make the input delay painfully obvious and

00:48 it can potentially make you mess up combos.

00:50 As for Grandpa Mishima himself, Heihachi can make quick work of you in just a couple of

00:54 moves.

01:01 Not only do his punches deal a ton of damage, but many of his attacks are impossible to

01:04 punish.

01:05 The one move to watch out for?

01:07 The Demon Uppercut.

01:09 One hit with that will send you flying into the air and all Heihachi needs to do after

01:12 is land a basic combo.

01:14 Bam, you're done.

01:22 Number 9 - Unknown - Tekken Tag Tournament

01:32 Unknown by herself is not all that difficult.

01:35 She's just a sexy, goopy version of Mokujin, a new character that can just randomly imitate

01:39 any character's moves.

01:41 But what makes her a nightmare is her ghostly wolf-beast companion fighting alongside her.

01:51 Thanks to this, Unknown can deal way more damage than a team of two normal characters.

01:55 Not only that, she can regenerate health throughout the entire fight, only able to be KO'd once

02:00 the red bar indicating health lost is fully depleted.

02:03 This makes the fight feel like it goes on for an eternity and gives Unknown plenty of

02:07 time to make a cheap comeback should you slack off for even a second.

02:18 Number 8 - Devil Kazuya - Tekken 2

02:27 While Tekken 2's controls were a significant improvement over its predecessors, it still

02:31 didn't make our fight with Kazuya any easier.

02:34 Again, that input delay.

02:36 Technical age aside, Kazuya's fight is a tough two-parter.

02:39 You'll fight him in his normal state first, and he isn't a joke.

02:42 Kazuya's AI is smart enough to recognize all the usual trappings, how to escape throws

02:46 quickly, and will block most of your attacks without fail.

02:55 Mix-ups will be your best friend here, and once you've won two rounds, things change.

03:00 You'll have to endure another two rounds with Kazuya, but against him in his devil form.

03:04 With his newfound powers, Kazuya can fire off laser beams from on the ground and even

03:09 mid-air.

03:10 Oh, and he doesn't even need to hit you with the beam.

03:12 Just standing too close to him will damage you.

03:15 Complete 90's nonsense.

03:23 Number 7 - Jun Kazama - Tekken Tag Tournament 2

03:31 While Jun Kazama was the final boss in the first Tekken Tag Tournament as the mysterious

03:34 Unknown, her appearance in the sequel is arguably much harder.

03:38 Whereas the previous game only required you to win one round against her, Tekken Tag Tournament

03:42 2 retains the standard rule set - two rounds required to win.

03:46 Jun doesn't mess around here either.

03:55 While some of her previous moves have been removed, her moveset in general has been expanded

03:59 with a focus on chaining attacks together, some of them even being counterattacks.

04:03 The fight only gets tougher when you win the first round.

04:06 After one defeat, Jun transforms into the Unknown and corrupts the dreamy background.

04:17 Under this new form, she'll utilize other moves such as a wind geyser and constructs

04:21 made of slime.

04:22 Oh, and throughout the fight, she will regenerate lost health.

04:25 So yeah, Jun's mother will smack the crap out of you.

04:34 Number 6 - Jinpachi Mishima - Tekken 5 - Dark Resurrection

04:46 Both versions of the ancient Mishima in Tekken 5 and its Dark Resurrection are crazy hard

04:51 in and of themselves.

04:52 However, we want to spotlight Dr. Jinpachi specifically for this list as he is way more

04:57 aggressive there than in the original.

05:06 Jinpachi comes with the same asinine tricks as he had before - the teleporting, the stomach

05:11 fireball, everything.

05:12 The thing that makes him harder in Dark Resurrection is the spamming.

05:16 Good god, this guy spams a lot.

05:19 Good luck trying to avoid those unblockable fireballs and anticipating his rushdowns.

05:31 Number 5 - Devil Kazuya - Tekken 7

05:40 Whereas Kazumi is the tough boss for T7's arcade mode, Kazuya makes you work for the

05:44 ending to story mode.

05:45 A regular fight with him just isn't enough, though.

05:48 For the grand finale, you will have to fight him as Heihachi.

05:53 Yep, it's time to break out those classic Tekken skills while the Mishima manchild gets

06:02 to use the powers of flight, hellfire, and eye lasers to make quick work of you.

06:07 And yes, every hit seems to do way more damage than what Heihachi can normally dish out,

06:11 which itself is a lot compared to the rest of the cast.

06:14 And fair in every way.

06:24 Number 4 - Nancy Mi-8 47J - Tekken 6

06:37 At first, we weren't going to include Nancy due to her being an impossible to beat bonus

06:41 boss.

06:42 But at the end of the day, a boss is a boss, and Nancy is the cheapest of the bunch.

06:46 Upon throwing your first punch, you'll notice that this goliath of a robot does not flinch.

06:50 Your attacks cannot interrupt whatever it's doing, and you'll only take out an incredibly

06:54 measly fraction of its health with one combo.

06:59 Yeah, it's that strong.

07:05 Plus, Nancy comes equipped with a bunch of unblockable moves, one of which can cut a

07:09 hole in the ground and cause you to fall off the stage, resulting in an instant defeat.

07:14 It's all total BS, but being a bonus optional boss is what keeps Nancy from the top spot.

07:26 Number 3 - Akuma - Tekken 7

07:35 Is it really any surprise to see Akuma on the list?

07:38 While Kazumi serves as the final boss in Tekken 7's Arcade Mode, you can sometimes face Akuma

07:42 instead.

07:43 And man, it's almost like Bandai Namco ripped him straight out of Street Fighter.

07:53 Akuma pulls all of the tricks in the book, the teleporting, the Hadoukens, the Shoryuken,

07:58 and even the ultimate move, Wrath of the Raging Demon.

08:01 The fight against him in the main story mode is a different Akuma altogether.

08:04 More projectiles, more rushdown, more damage resistance - it all makes him a nightmare.

08:09 Honestly, mad props to those of you who managed to defeat him with a perfect 10 stars.

08:21 Number 2 - Kazuya - Tekken 8

08:27 Look, we know Kazuya has cropped up three times on this list now, but this version of

08:35 him is the most ruthless we've seen him.

08:38 In Tekken 8's story mode, the final fight against Kazuya goes on for an insanely long

08:42 time, about two whole chapters.

08:44 You fight him normal with half of the Devil Gene's power, then you fight him in Jin's

08:48 Angel form, and finally, some classic good-ass Tekken.

08:52 However, he does not hold back.

09:00 Kazuya can easily catch you in a lengthy combo, taking off a massive chunk of your health

09:04 bar.

09:05 Before you know it, fight's over, you lose.

09:07 Continue?

09:08 Hell no.

09:09 Get away with what sanity remains if you have to.

09:38 Number 1 - Azazel - Tekken 6

09:49 Even having been through the absolute bullshit employed by Akuma and Jinpachi, we'd still

09:53 say Azazel is the hardest Tekken boss.

09:55 Jinpachi is still beatable, and the main story fight against Akuma gives you your own unique

09:59 powers to fight with.

10:00 Azazel, on the other hand, requires you beat him through normal means while he gets to

10:04 use a variety of asinine abilities.

10:15 We're talking super armor, teleporting from the sky at random, summoning crystal spikes

10:19 from the floor, sending bats that blend into the environment after you, and resisting most

10:23 attacks.

10:24 It's also nearly impossible to launch him as he falls super quickly and does not flinch

10:28 from most moves.

10:29 You need to land consecutive hits to get him in the air, and if the preceding fight against

10:33 Jin wasn't bad enough, Azazel really made us steer clear of Tekken 6.
