Tekken Comic (鉄拳コミック, Tekken Komikku, lit. Iron Fist) is a manga series created by Rui Takato based on the eponymous series of fighting games. The manga was created in honor of the 15th anniversary of the Tekken game series and is available with permission from Bandai Namco in the online version of the magazine Ultra Jump. The first printed volume of the manga was published on March 19, 2010.

The manga features a plot based on Tekken 6, with some differences. For example, the early chapters focus more on Asuka Kazama and Lili, and the Mishima family is mentioned only in the first chapter. Furthermore, the manga contains fan service and comedy scenes.

Story[]

Jin Kazama, the owner of the powerful Japanese corporation Mishima Zaibatsu, declares war on the entire world. Nations that sided with the corporation merged into one independent nation, destroying any opposition. A year later, the Mishima Zaibatsu organization opens "The King of Iron Fist Tournament", declaring that the victor will be guaranteed a great prize. However, the tournament is interrupted by the appearance of Asuka Kazama who attacks Jin and demands that he must stop his despotic ambitions carried out through Mishima Zaibatsu. Jin then orders guards—led by Eddy Gordo—to remove her from the premises. Asuka is oblivious that her actions will eventually lead to very unexpected consequences later on.

Characters[]

In contrast to the game series, the characters and the connection between certain characters in the manga is different. For example, Lili is more than silly and whimsical, her servant Leo is older, and Sebastian and Alisa Bosconovich from the beginning of the manga are acting on the orders of Jin Kazama.

Publication[]

The first six manga chapters were published on the official website of the journal Ultra Jump, starting from October 19, 2009 and published monthly (except for the first two chapters, which were published together, October 19, 2009). On March 19, 2010 in Japan, the first manga volume was published, including the first 6 chapters.
