@@Hilversumborn It's a pity that, just like Paul, he went from being one of the strongest characters in the entire verse to just a journeyman at best. I know that the King introduced since Tekken 3 is actually one of the orphanage kids who took up the torch of the original after he died (the one that Loresmith shows in this video as a nice fanservice), but still I think he deserves some moments to shine in canon.
I am Mexican and I can assure you that King is considered by almost all Mexicans to be the best Mexican character in fighting games and video games in general.
@@BenjaminRodriguezHernand-qj7jr This is so cool. Thanks for this information! I am impressed, this game charackter is loved by many real Mexicans. It seems he has also some really authentic Mexican properties?
But at the same time I did kinda like the mysterious aura about each of the characters. There was no dialogue so they could only show you things from each character’s background and leave it up to you to connect dots
These are great, keep them coming. It gives the non Mishima characters much needed backstory. Also Alucard being the narrator is a nice throwback to Tekken 5.
This series is def wanted by hardcore tekken fans over the years. Tekken lore has been heavily focused on the Mishima Bloodline that other character backstory is a mystery.
This video is amazing, words cannot describe this masterpiece. You truly used AI to its proper use and entailed a story to some of the fans who never knew. You made me love King even more! Overall this is just a great job. From utilizing the AI to narration of the story, its beautiful. I can't wait for you to make another lore video with the other Tekken Characters!
God these lore vids are incredible i love seeing tekken through this lens. Id love to see how these would be for all the other characters. thanks for taking the time to make these we love em
Been watching these Tekken lore episodes and I freaking love em. I hope we get a Yoshimitsu Tekken lore video soon! Bro has most underrated story of the Tekken cast.
Dude that was really touching motivating at the same time especially the beginning really got me great great great storytelling man. I hope that somebody see s your work for what it is you deserve too be bigger i dont know if it is only u working on that but dude 💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥That kind of story we need in movies nowadays also the williams sister episode great stuff
Thanks bro that means a lot! It's just me making these, that's why it takes so long! 😅 But yeah King is an awesome character, he's just a good dude overall, can't help but like him. I've said it before, the Tekken characters have lots of potential for stories, I dunno why they don't make a show of it. (I Know they made an anime but it's Mishima focused like everything Tekken related, dont get me wrong, the mishimas are cool but I think the other characters are cool too)
I just found your channel and I have something to say that will make you smile: With your exquisite skill at making these, not only do I hope you continue to make them, Harada really needs to hire you.
Your video was amazing and I would like to see more of your work. One question, are you going to tell King's entire story from the other Tekken games, for example Tekken 2, Tekken 3, Tekken 4 up to Tekken 8?
I liking this channel the treat these legacy characters with more respect than the creators after the green gravy (yes chat i know they're businesses that need money for survival!)
The 1st King was awesome. He beat both the 1st Armor King & the 1st Jack in the 1st King of Iron Fist Tournament. That's gotta be enough money to fund the orphanage for the kids who were happy to see the 1st King do it.
I have been waiting for this. I like your lore series but I especially love your Tekken lore series, it’s how I found your channel. Great work as always.
Thank you for not only telling the the background story for the First King but the other fighters as well i can now look at the fighrers who a new respect to them and now see how their hardships molded them to the top fighters they are now. I sincerly appreciate the style of storytelling it feels genuine and fresh and keeps viewer immerse in the universe of Tekken. I cant wait till you touch on Characters such as Jun, Jin, Heihachi and much more. And I hope in the future you will dive in the lore of other fighting games like virtual fighter, killer instant, or even Bloody Roar to named a few. Amazing video
My favorite of this Teken series so far. The introduction is especially touching. As a Latin American, I appreciate the detail of making the priest speak Spanish (and with a Mexican sounding accent!) instead of English, or worse, some weird Spanglish lol. I thought this one was going to be tough due to the prompts required to render a character as "unique" as King, but surprisingly whatever Gen AI you used did quite well (it even nailed his "family man" attire).
I like to honour the countries and cultures the characters come from because I think that’s such a cool aspect of the franchise, the variety. I only speak English so i can’t really authenticate, i did try to make a point give him a Mexican accent though, I hope it came across well enough because I can’t tell! 😫 Honestly, yeah it was tough, it took a while to do king, with his “unique” look as you say. you can probably see, it’s not perfect, but it’s something at least 😂 his freaking jaguar head! probably one of the hardest characters, I have a feeling yoshimitsu will be a pain too.
Especially after this despite being a fan of Tekken since I was three, I never knew how well Yoshimitsu and King would get along if they actually met each other.
@@TheLoresmith Yeah bro Tekken 2 was one of the first games i EVER played as young and King was my favorite back then. You know directly that hes a luchador with heart
One of the most selfless characters in the franchise. The People's Champion And the first to die in the series. The TRUE KING of the Iron Fist Thank you King I. Your legacy will live on in King II
King is (probably together with Yoshimitsu) the most non-selfish Tekken-Fighter. I must say, that I was even shocked back then to find out, that King I was killed by Ogre. But King II is more than worthy to carry on his legacy.
Another great one! Seeing a young King crying almost broke me. Needless to say, I'm really looking forward to more Tekken anime vids! But I also noticed your account icon and banner is Squall's griever. I really hope that mean's we're getting FF8 anime vids! Man, Metal Gear, Tekken, and FF8, are you me? Just more talented and able to create awesome videos? Lol don't tell me you're a TMNT fan too! But yo, where that "Join" button at?!
Thank you! Yup ff8 was my childhood game that has always stuck with me, never thought about doing ff in this format before but that could be a good idea! Been thinking about potential other franchises to tackle eventually 🤔 and I know of tmnt of course, it’s iconic but never watched it. 😅
The mini-stories on the history of the Iron Fist Tournament in the form of video novels are just beautiful! Please continue to create by the author and more often please us with videos with similar themes! 🤩😊P.S. I wonder how the story of the mechanical ninja Yoshimitsu can now be realized?😃
Thank you, yeah I think the format is pretty neat, it presents quite well also fleshes out the characters themselves. I am actually doing yoshimitsu next which I will admit is going to be challenging, but let’s go! 👊
BROOOOO this is so awesome!! I already knew King's story but watching this makes me like him more 🥹 such a touching story for a noble warrior🥹 hope to see King II lore as well ❤️❤️
Yeah, then story of Yoshimitsu, Jack, Michelle, Ganryu, Kuma, Anna Williams, Wang Jinrei, Prototype Jack, Kunimitsu, Armor King, Kazuya, Lee and Heihachi.
