Jun Kazama Fan Thread II

[*****]

Awww~ That pic is adorable!
Listen to Jun, Harada, listen!...And to the fans!!

not to sound rude or anything, but we should now really concentrate on posting comments like this on twitter, its the best way to get his attention.

once he sees the large amount of jun comments on his page, he may well decide to do it. It's good tweeting to him too, but we must try to comment on his page too

http://twitter.com/harada_tekken

come on users of tn, you can do it!!

[ImagineAsian]

posted for Jun twice!

[*****]

btw this whole 5000 twitter thing, appears to be a joke (in my eyes). However from the other comments he did appear that he is considering it.

Just be careful how you advertise this bring back jun thing

stick to what I suggested and post comments instead

edit

this is the quotes I already posted and highlighted the comments, which were most important...

to me we're kinda making Harada rethink, and he even said it may just take one comment that may chang ehis mind according to the interview with markman. Now the tweets help in the sense that he'll know that alot of those who are tweeted to him want jun back. But this does not mean she WILL be back if he gets 5000. It could be less or more, or none. What is important are the comments

Everyone say "bring back jun"..if my follower (of twitter) increases up to 5000 people,, i'll think about it =p RT

ok. i will ask @Yoshi_OnoChin. RT @asian_happiness: @Harada_TEKKEN i want jun back

DOH!! What the xxxx !!?? RT@Yoshi_OnoChin: Hi!! I want to back to us for 風間準(Jun Kazama) RT @Harada_TEKKEN:Everyone say "bring back jun"

Ok my reply here.

There are some interesting topics from the past lately. I guess I could shed some light on this since it happened quite a while ago.

It is true that data for 'SAKE' and 'JUN' is actually contained in the Arcade TEKKEN 3 version(Also Kazuya. But T3 Kazuya is just TEXT DATA only. Cuz He is a prototype of Jin).

I was the one who put it in there so I'm sure of it.

About JUN, there seem to be a lot of fans that think that Jun has died in the official storyline. That isn't exactly true.
From Jin's perspective in the story, he believes his mother, Jun, has died. This is the correct interpretation.
After the release of TEKKEN 3, I have officially stated to the press that objectively, and officially, Jun's whereabouts are unknown.
So this is the official stance that has been stated repeatedly. Even so, the belief that she has died is spread and some "official storylines" have also mistakenly incorporated this myth so I guess it can't be helped.

Anyways, to get back to the story, Jun's data was included in TEKKEN 3 because there was still a possibility she might appear at that time.

Just to clear this up, the only characters that have officially been declared dead are the first King and first Armor King.
In real-life, wrestling is heavier on entertainment but in the Tekken world, they can really die in their profession.
In the Tekken world, pro-wrestlers are some of the only fighters that are always on edge during a fight, as they are in constant danger of losing their life. As such, they are tragic and alone but their existence shines bright.

Regarding 'SAKE', this was included when we planned to implement a new animal character. But there were a few problems...

It was really a salmon so, no matter if you press punch or kick, the character just flops around making a flapping noise...
At the time, one play was 100 yen (a little over a dollar) so that is the quality bar to keep in mind for customer satisfaction.
So we thought players would get quite angry if they had to pay that much to play such a character, and we gave up on that character. That kind of character might be OK in a console version, but not for the arcade.

There's also 'INSECT' data buried deep in the ROM. That's another idea we had at the time. The idea was for an insect... a giant praying mantis! The idea resulted from a bug in the program in which all the characters arms, legs, and waists were extremely thin and they looked like a praying mantis.

It was actually quite interesting so we thought of maybe basing a character on that and calling it 'INSECT'. However, we had a lot of new characters like Jin, Xiaoyu, Eddy, and Hwoarang to work on so we didn't have the resources and had to give up on the idea.

So ....
do you guys like this kind of background story? There are so many stories like this. Maybe we should go drinking or On Twitter (@Harada_TEKKEN) and I could tell you more(or I’ll Tweets).

Oh one more thing.

About 13~14 years ago(After releasing tekken3).
I heard "Bringback kunimitsu" from several people.
and I revived her with Tekken Tag Tournament( A lot of opinions "I need more new character" were not adopted).
But...
Her(kunimitsu) usage rate and popularity were the lowest (Investigated in world wide).

"Everyone say: bring back jun".
I heard it from the same person millions of times.

However, "Everyone" .... is it true??

If my follower (of twitter) increases , if a lot of opinions of the person were able to be heard, i'll think about it (However, please do not do spam lol).
It is easy to understand that the opinion is short and simple.
I will learn a lot of opinions there.
and I will share your opinions and comments with my tekken project team.

PLEASE do not forget. I love all characters.
All the characters are as important for me as the son and the daughter.
(Similarly, time and budget are limited)

Thanks !!

Really?

Again?

[crystal]

I think he's legit

Regarding Kunimitsu's "flop" though, I think it's safe to say that Jun is waay more popular than her, so you shouldn't worry about that.

Besides, you weren't going to have Kunimitsu in Tekken Tag Tournament? I thought TTT was supposed to have all characters? That's one of the reasons people are dying for TTT2.

[crystal]

But uh, he posted a link to this post of his in his twitter. You mean the twitter account is a fake too? Or is it hacked? I'm lost

[Kicky]

dude that is real Harada san i saw his post on twitter.

Jun could be at least back as a story element :3
she was really important then *poof* disappeared!

[Giuly_Chan]

He posted also on his facebook account

[Tofma]

i think nows a good time to make a new thread

closed

[WhoreANG!]

Should've left it to a fan to make a new thread then

[CorpseThrust]

edit by deebo: that quote was deleted, this thread will be dealt just like any other appreciation thread and so it must follow the rules

nice opening post.


i'd love it if she returns in t7/tvsf and has a significantly different moveset from asuka. like how dj and kaz are different.

[crystal]

I think you should merge the posts from Harada's and onward with this new thread.

[Razer]

Edited Tofma's post to include the first Jun Appreciation Thread. That way you guys can check back on Harada's post, other lulz, etc.

Anyway. Continue with your Jun lovin's.

Great news guys. I love that Namco actually cares about our opinion and takes us seriously. That's a lot more than most developers anywhere can say.

I can't believe the Harada has posted on Tekken Nation, thanks a lot you've helped clear a lot of things out there.

Well we now know for sure she ain't dead, hopefully she does make a comeback, her popularity is now known.

Thanks again for taking your time and posting on Tekken Nation Harada San
