101. Tekken Tag Tournament 2 - Raetsel_Lapin
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcYZKokEqjE

Unlike Mortal Kombat, Ive long been a fan of this fighting series, but this intro didnt work for me for a few reasons. First we get the completely unnecessary moment in the taxi, which plays more like a scene from a sitcom than the intro to a fighting game. I would say they were going for comic relief, but it doesnt fit the tone of the rest of the intro.

Perhaps if I was a wrestling fan, what comes next would have appealed to me more, depicting a rowdy crowd cheering for battle. Regardless, I dont feel the setting is well suited to the Tekken franchise, which seems more at home with battles in the streets than in a sold out arena (with the obvious exception of King, who I didnt even see in this intro unless I missed him).

Another complaint I had was the intro didnt do a very good job showing off a range of characters, spending far too long on showing how OP Angel is at the expense of actual combat. Id say Tekken isnt supposed to be all about wrestling, but its especially not supposed to be Dragon Ball Z.

I will, however, say the intro looked great. No complaints whatsoever on the visuals.
