TEKKEN: Blood Vengeance

TEKKEN: Blood Vengeance (鉄拳 ブラッド・ベンジェンス, 2011) is the feature-length anime action film based on Namco Bandai's fighting game franchise — watch it online on iFILM. Martial arts student Xiaoyu Ling is recruited by the G Corporation to infiltrate an international school in Kyoto and locate a teenager named Shin Kamiya. She's not the only one looking.

Shin turns out to be at the centre of the Mishima family's long-running blood feud. Jin Kazama, Kazuya Mishima and the supposedly dead Heihachi all converge as the investigation spirals outward. The climax unfolds at Honouji Castle — full-scale transformations, collapsing architecture and the kind of fight choreography the game's fans expect. Directed by Youichi Mouri, the film was produced and released in 3D.

For Tekken devotees this fills in Mishima lore that the games only sketch. For everyone else it's a polished, fast-moving animated brawler. Stream TEKKEN: Blood Vengeance online on iFILM.
