Devil in this iteration is hereafter known as Devil Jin, and possesses a personality distinct from Jin's and also from Devil Kazuya. Devil was finally able to enter Jin, and in the process, branded his upper arm. Devil was fought off by Jun Kazama, who continued to protect her son, until her apparent death at the hands of Ogre, fifteen years later. Half remained with Kazuya, allowing him to partially survive the volcano, or at least preserve some of his body, and the other half fled to Kazuya's unborn son (the only remaining bearer of Hachijo blood). Despite likely taking on his devil form once again to fight Heihachi in the final of the second Iron Fist Tournament, the confusion within Kazuya led him to lose to his father. Devil was later a key factor allowing Kazuya to defeat his father at the first King of Iron Fist Tournament, although apparently in a way that enabled Kazuya to keep Devil relatively secret.ĭevil's supremacy within Kazuya was challenged by the mysterious entity, Angel, who appeared within Kazuya in connection with the confusion brought about by meeting Jun Kazama. Devil became an active agent within Kazuya after he was thrown off a cliff when he was five-years-old by Heihachi Mishima, and nearly died. The Hachijo blood Kazuya inherited, allowed for Devil to possess him when he was young. Devil can take its own form or can take over the body of Kazuya or Jin to become Devil Kazuya or Devil Jin respectively. Though multiple characters have a 'devil', only the iteration within Kazuya has been historically referred to as 'Devil'. Originally a malevolent entity intent on possessing either Kazuya or Jin, one-half has now merged with Kazuya, and is under Kazuya's control.
It is the devil counterpart of Kazuya Mishima and later Jin Kazama, after it was split in two when Kazuya was cast into a volcano at the end of Tekken 2.
