Asuka story with Feng was not well used.. Feng even has Leroy as rival now because was defeated by him. While in his special interaction with T8 Asuka he seems superior to her as fighter not taking her seriously. Now with Jun here even sharing her purification powers(even if Asuka does not know it) she is not special for that anymore. Also now we have 3 kazama karate users. I never payed too much attention but the wiki confirms that Lili appeared in more Non-Tekken games than Asuka. Tekken is Superpopular in Europe. Favoritism or... Interest in sales? Perhaps Tekken Team pushed Lili that much to have one European Relevant Girl in the rost. Something that watching certain statistics I think that is working. Zafina is only suspected be from Egypt and Nina has been here since the begin to push her even more.

At 16, she took down highly skilled men and went past security straight directly at Heihachi, and we know Heihachi was a person that's super hard to impress, but he was to the point that he gave her a panda as a personal guard. Xiaoyu also single handedly infiltrated the Mishima Zaibatsu. Her resume is pretty impressive, so her taking down Jacks is not difficult to believe.

I know folks are upset about Asuka not being involved in the story more, but have you ever considered she might just be not interested in that stuff? She’s always been shown to be a normal teenager (for the world of Tekken) and in terms of being super involved in the Mishima/Kazama conflict, we already have Xiayou and Jun for that. (Also, it took 5 games for Jun to come back and be involved in things, so what’s to say that Asuka’s time to shine is right around the corner?) As for stuff to do, I know that there’s the throng with Feng Wei attacking her father, so I guess that could be brought up. But the thing with Lili is that it’s made VERY CLEAR that whenever something goes down between the two of them, Lili starts it and Asuka has to finish it because Lili won’t leave her alone otherwise. (And even if that makes the two sound like a comedy duo, I think Lili has been screwing around with Asuka’s family dojo since at least the events of Tekken 7. Even if these character endings aren’t canon, all the talk of Asuka being “wasted” just made me want to throw in my two cents even if nobody wants it.

This is really Asuka's pov in continuation from Tekken 7 if Asuka wins against Lili in the Iron Fist Tournament then Lili would purchase ownership of Asuka's house and Dojo while in Tekken 8 if Asuka wins the rematch instead of conceding defeat. Lili would go to great lengths besting Dojos in Japan just so she could provoke Asuka then set up a stipulation wherein if Asuka loses, Lili will once again have ownership of Asuka's Dojo through a streetfight. Lili is self-taught in fighting without any formal training yet as much as I used to like this rivalry, it really has become stale because there is no rightful conclusion, it's always a cliffhanger, parody, or straightup Rochenfort nonsense about her one-sided rivalry on Asuka, why ya so obsessed? Lili can't best Asuka because she's a partial fighter, at least her character development has progressed while Asuka is reduced significantly as an extension of Lili.

The bare minimum they could’ve done for Asuka was let her and Lili fight Feng alongside Leeroy. Namco literally could’ve just had them land from the plane to at least help instead of having them take out Jack 8. That way Asuka would have gotten her revenge for her father by at least contributing to his loss. That’s all I ask… Granted at least she was in the story and interacted with Jin a teeny tiny microscopic bit, which was way more than I thought she’d get. But still, it’s so sad how they treated her by making her Lili’s dog and wasting her potential. Honestly I wish Lili never existed.

@@MegamanZXOmega Don’t get me wrong, I do like their relationship to an extent. The part where they work together to take down Jack 8 was pretty sick was a nice character dynamic moment. The problem is Asuka now only exists because of Lili and has no character or identity anymore. Asuka was supposed to be the Jun to Jin’s Kazuya. They built her up to be a major playing factor into Jin’s character arc in her Tekken 5 ending and they never followed through with that. She also served as a good foil to Jun in that Asuka is a spunky, fiery, albeit dimwitted tomboy, whereas Jun is caring and nurturing and elegant. This could have been used to elevate Jin’s character in ways that mirror each other; Jin sees a lot of his mother Jun in Asuka despite the major differences and they both contribute to him reaching his angel form. She was also supposed to have a rivalry with Feng because she wanted to avenge her father and her dojo. None of these plot points that were initially important to her character were resolved or followed through with. We either have endings where Lili trolls her and she looks like an idiot, or where Feng totally humiliates her. No matter what scenario she is in regarding Lili or Feng, Asuka is always the butt of the joke. And the thing is Jun isn’t even prevalent in the story. She only shows up a couple of times in dream sequences and at the end of the story. So why is she even in the game? Honestly it probably would’ve been better if they either saved her reveal for last or have her be dlc. That way the “twist” ending has more impact. I’m just sad Asuka couldn’t be her own character with her own goals anymore.

The problem is though is that 1. it never evolves past them bickering and fighting, and 2. Lili already seems to have surpassed her given she’s a more active force in the story than Asuka ever has been. Asuka didn’t make it through to the coliseum, but Lili did, and Asuka is just there to watch her. An obscure pachislot game did Asuka much more justice than any mainline game did since Tekken 6. I would have loved if they took the concept of Asuka and Lili teaming up to defeat Feng in Tekken cr, and integrated it into the War scene. That way their relationship grows by having Lili help Asuka achieve her goal for revenge and Asuka seeing her as not just some stalker that was butthurt she lost to her and hasn’t stopped annoying her since, but also as a genuine friend and ally that always has Asuka’s back

Lili is great at getting under Asuka’s skin While Asuka is great at putting Lili in her place through her superior combat skills

Aska is dead since Tekken 5

I’m surprised Asuka still exists in Tekken, should’ve just removed her completely.

Yeah, should figured that nothing would change about this character. Really want to like Asuka, but my god there's just nothing to her. She's only there to be harrased by Lili, isn't she. Waited since Tekken 5 for her and Jin to talk. Fucking 20 years of waiting and NOTHING.

- Horrid new outfit (thank the lord you can change costumes) - Tekken 5 classic biker gear NOT in the game - Ending is pretty much just Tekken 7's AGAIN with no personal story progression at all. - Still chained to Lili - Lili is given forced character traits (tea fan, cat owner) just so she can interact with more characters, Asuka ... nothing. - Appearance in the main story is by being dragged in by Lili and then having NO impact whatsoever. + she looks gorgeous. The only chance the developers have of saving this crap scripting is - Let Lili go off and annoy Azucena as a new plaything, have her do whatever with Leroy. Then have Reina become Asuka's main rival where Asuka gets stronger and learns more through it. Asuka then can be become a better fighter storyline wise, utterly wreck Lili in a final stand off and ditch her annoying ass as Lili can't annoy her anymore. It's funny because in Streetfighter, Karin is my favourite female. she's awesome whereas I find Sakura meh. Lili is crap but Asuka is great.
