At first glance, I thought this was a new version of Bruce Irvin from Tekken 2, but as the trailer went on, I could tell this dude is in his own element. He's like Tekken's own version of Street Fighter V's Necali in a sense - a savage, untamed beast of a man honed to perfection in combat. About time they made up a new character to give Bryan and Craig a run for their money in terms of intimidation.
I had honestly forgotten about Ganryu's crush on Michelle Chang way back in Tekken 2 until Tekken Tag Tournament 2 came around. It's funny to see he's moved his affections towards "stanning" for Julia Chang's streaming efforts in Tekken 7. I got a good laugh out of this - more than I thought I would have initially. I think Ganryu's a character that no one asked for, but this was funny nonetheless.
Without a shadow of a doubt, I know most players are going to flock to this character. Out of the three reveals, this is the one that got me the most hype, even though they had to give him the most stereotypical "black" name ever. I can't wait to see what people do with this character in high level play.
