I'm impressed you've made it this far. My name is Jinpachi Mishima. My goal... my goal is to destroy all existence!
~ Jinpachi Mishima

Jinpachi Mishima is a major character in the Tekken franchise and serves as the main antagonist in Tekken 5. He is the founder and former head of Mishima Zaibatsu, as well as the father of Heihachi, grandfather of Kazuya and Lars Alexandersson, and the great-grandfather of Jin Kazama. He is also a good friend of Wang Jinrei, whom was already mentioned in the stories of Tekken and Tekken 2, as part of Jinrei's backstory.

He was voiced by the late Takeshi Aono in Tekken 5 and by the late Chikao Ōtsuka in Tekken Tag Tournament 2.

Personality[]

Unlike most Mishimas (who were ruthless and power hungry), Jinpachi was a man of honor and wisdom as he showed compassion to his grandson Kazuya when the latter was a child (this is possibly another reason Heihachi resented Jinpachi so much) and was friends with Wang Jinrei. In his Tekken 5 ending, realizing that no one could stop him, he shed tears as the evil spirit that possessed him grew more powerful.

History[]

Past[]

Jinpachi was the very first owner and founder of the Mishima Zaibatsu and a renowned martial arts master. He later had a son, Heihachi and became a grandfather when Heihachi had a son, Kazuya.

During World War II, Jinpachi then expanded the corporation into an industrial force, capitalising on military demand due to the ongoing war but after the war and following the direction the company had taken, Jinpachi began regretting his decision, even despising needless conflict. He instead vowed to devote the legacy of his family solely to martial arts. In addition, Jinpachi greatly loved his grandson, Kazuya, raising and training the youngster. He was also an old friend of Wang Jinrei.

But Jinpachi's life changed for the worst when Heihachi staged a coup, seizing control of the company. Jinpachi attempted to retake the company from his son but lost and was imprisoned between the family temple, Hon-Maru, remaining there for forty years when during his time there, he ultimately starved to death.

Sometime after he had died, a demonic entity possessed Jinpachi's body and brought him back to life, granting him powers as well and when the temple was attacked by Jack bots with the explosion destroying the temple, Jinpachi was freed. He then claimed the company, making arrangements for the fifth King of Iron Fist Tournament, driven by the desire to end his corrupt family bloodline and to free himself from the demon possessing him.

Tekken 5[]

After Heihachi is presumed dead, Jinpachi awakens from his prison with evil energy around him. In the final round of the tournament, Jin Kazama fought and defeated his great-grandfather, thus becoming the new owner of the Mishima Zaibatsu with Jinpachi finally able to die peacefully, freed at last from the demonic force's control.

Ending[]

  • Death: Jinpachi moves around and screams, writhing in pain, for a while before dissolving into dust and disappearing.
  • The Final Transformation: Jinpachi sadly says, "It looks like nobody was able to stop me." Jinpachi sheds a tear that appears to be blood. The spikes on his back grow longer, and the spikes in his arms grow longer. Jinpachi screams for a while. Jinpachi causes a huge explosion. A beam is shown shooting towards the sky. A black screen is shown, and words (in white) say, "Jinpachi's mind is consumed by the devil as he reaches his final transformation. The world will never be the same." You can unlock this video by either buying it on PSP version, or letting Jinpachi kill you in last round and not to retry.

Powers and Abilities[]

Jinpachi has the Mishima Style Fighting Karate, Along with the Mishima fighting style, Jinpachi also has some demonic powers. One of his demonic powers include generating powerful fireballs. In terms of sheer damage potential, Jinpachi has no equals. His attacks are powerful, long ranged and easy to perform, and his punishers are very powerful. While he suffers from poor mobility, he can use his Astral Projection to scoot forward or backward rapidly. This makes him a constant threat to his opponent, regardless of where he may be. Also, Jinpachi's flight ability is useful for applying pressure at long range, where an opponent does not expect an attack (but, inversely, is much less useful at close range because a jab is more than enough to block him).
