This is THE thread where we talk about Yoshimitsu. His lore, his designs, his gameplay and everything else. Only TRUE Yoshimitsu fans can post here!Today's discussion: What is the best Yoshimitsu costume of all time?
Is he a soul caliber character or a tekken character? I've only played SC2 and I played him in that, but I've seen him in tekken games but never knew where he came from initially
>>738772584He was in tekken 1. Skipped soul edge. Has been a staple since soulcaliber.Here he is playing Tennis.
>>738772487I like when he does his hellycopter thing yay
im a real Yoshimitsu fan. I say 'it is I Yoshimitsu' sometimes several times a day if I can
I'm such a big Yoshimitsu fan that i'm planning on stabbing myself through the gut with a samurai sword to kill myself one day

Hey, I really like Yoshimitsu, he's been my main for a long timeFor me it's his T4 default costume, but the one you posted is my second favorite, really like skeletons
>>738772880Make sure to hit someone behind you
>>738772880>>738772984and spin while you're bleeding out
Yoshimitsu? I'm a Voldo man myself.
namu
I think 6 is his best look and he's who I mained because Patrokolos didn't make it back.
>hurr 6f launcher hope you don't ever enter a stanceThis character is so gay
>>738772905I never played him in SC but in Tekken he's extremely unorthodox and not particularly strong, but he has a bunch of things you'd never expect someone to use or do, very fun to play and a pretty unique playstyle in fighting games
i played a lot of yoshi in t8 s1 but i kinda dropped off the game for a while and when i went back i decided to pick up lars instead
>>738773231T8 flanderized Yoshimitsu
>>738773337what did they do to him? i never played him before t8
>>738773454>>738773454He isn't nearly as unorthodox as before, they gave him the standard "universal launcher", buffed Flash a ton so it's considerably easier to hit, gave him easier ways to maintain a combo and T8 as a game isn't as favorable to his defensive stuff so people barely, if ever, use them anymoreBasically, he had a big rework, he was a very defensive and reactive character before, and in T8 is considerably more aggressive and more "normal", but they might've reworked him because of the nature of the game itself
>>738773807Yeah, T8 in general is retarded and lame, Yoshi just got hit harder than usual since he was a defensive character in an unga-bunga game.
he was the coolest shit ever in t3 when I was a kid, I didnt own a ps1 but everytime I was at my friends place id pick yoshi and just mash hoping to find new moves, the suicide was peak
>>738775069for me its his helicopter move
I know people have less than nice opinion on the game but he looks baller as af in 8
>>738772487T3 Yoshi was the best, before all the ott attire. Just pure alien menace
>>738772487People that play this character are insufferable faggots that don't want to play tekken and instead want to waste your timeDon't know anything about sc
>>738776517
The way he says 'irrelevant!' is just the best.IRRRRRRReleVANT!I used to think he was saying "[unintelligible] repent!"
what did the move where he sits down and looks like he's jacking off actually do?
>>738776702every jerk recovers a little bit of health but practically it's just a stance to get access to certain moves
>>738776008Yoshi has consistently cool designs which is impressive for a guy who has a new fit for every game.For me his only miss on main outfits on Tekken is 6, which is not bad in concept but its just so busy it becomes a mess visually.
>>738776702minor health regen
>>738772487Yoshimitsu should have been the only character allowed to use a weapon. Fuck all these wannabe characters.
I miss when Yoshimitsu was the 'out of norm character in TekkenNow you have characters like and victor and Clive
i dislike fighting gamesbut soul calibur is one of my favorite franchises of all timeonce you really "get" yoshimitsu he's so much fun. he can be so tricky and unpredictable, and he's also hilariouslove his designslove his voicelove his seppuku moves
>>738772487are tekken and sc yoshi canonically the same guy
My classmates in elementary school thought I was cheating when I did the 10 hit combo that ends in three unblockables. It's easy as hell to input
>>738778324no, but yoshimitsu is a title passed down, it's the leader of the manji clan, similarly to kunimitsu (note the mitsu at the end) but she left the clan
for me, it's octopus yoshieveryone hated it when it came out but personally I always though it looked coolgod I wish T8 was good
>>738778815I thought that was cool too.
Somehow this guy became my main in tekken 8 after starting with steve, then going to jun and finally settling on Yoshi.For the record. I've never played a fighting game before. So ending up on this box of tricks character sure was interesting.Really miss playing him. Having such a massive kit of things to throw at my opponent was right up my alley. But the game just made me too angry eventually
I like Bug-Mitsu from T4.
