He's going to say they never met in between, but evidence is present and against him (I'd say as usual) since the introductions are there.
- Arguing the intro isn't canon is saying Bloodline Rebellion isn't canon. This is no different than when someone argues Dark Resurrection isn't. They practically serve the same purpose - adding new characters and facts to the storyline. This is not the same as Tekken Tag which plays no major plot purpose IIRC. What I will say though is it's wierd that in Tekken 5, we see Heihachi get up from the grave in the morning during his interludes with Raven, but in the Dark Resurrection intro we see him rising at night...so this could be an edit of facts, or Heihachi took a nap again and rose one night again, I'm not sure. Even still, BR is after Tekken 6, and none of the introductions contradict one another to even begin considering to say something they show isn't canon.
- If it's eye candy and something Namco used as a prototype or tossed in the bin, why is it on all copies of the game in the opening movie gallery? Showing 4 different intros which are...you guessed it. All canon (someone care to tell me when an intro to a game let alone a fighting game wasn't canon? 😆) Why don't we all also just say the scenario campaign intro was "eye candy" as well? Seeing as it's never "referred" to in cutscenes and prologues? The reason that's obvious is, never has Tekken had a non-canon intro, IIRC, so to say that all of a sudden there's one now, and using an idiotic reason like "that event isn't referred to in prologues" is no different than arguing half of the Tekken 5 intro is "eye candy" because Tekken 5 cutscenes/prologues don't mention half the shit that showed up in the intro.
All of this talk seems senseless since one would think in an intro Namco probably spent a good month or two on, the hard-working designer isn't going to point at the moment Jin and Kazuya shatter the glass and scream: "No they can't do that!" 😆
And it's FWahMaN 🙁
