Kunimitsu is a character in the Tekken fighting game series. She made her first appearance in original Tekken as an unlockable character and sub-boss for Michelle Chang. It is unknown what happens to Kunimitsu after her last canonical appearance in Tekken 2. Some fans speculate that she was killed by Yoshimitsu towards the end of the second tournament. Ogre/True Ogre has some of her moves in Tekken 3 and Tekken Tag Tournament. This implies that she was attacked by Ogre.

Tekken Edit

Kunimitsu is known as "The Cat Devil". She was a former member of the Manji posse of ninja bandits led by Yoshimitsu. She then betrayed the clan for personal benefit. She entered the first King of Iron Fist Tournament intending to steal Michelle Chang's pendant which was supposed to have special powers. Kunimitsu, fearing the wrath of the vengeful Michelle, went into hiding.

Tekken 2 Edit

Feeling humiliated, Kunimitsu sought solace with her grandfather. He was a swordsmith with a reputation. He informed Kunimitsu that the sword used by Yoshimitsu is a relic of unimaginable value. She learned that it was handed down through the Manji band and it had the power to sever an enemy both spiritually and mentally. The sword exchanges hands when a new leader is elected. The old leader is ritually sacrificed and the sword's power is transferred to its new owner. Kunimitsu's grandfather has spent his entire existence trying to forge a copy of the sword. Kunimitsu entered the second tournament to face and defeat Yoshimitsu and claim the sword so that her grandfather can make a copy before his death. In her ending, she obtains the sword from facing Yoshimitsu and demonstrates it's power.

Tekken Tag Tournament Edit

Kunimitsu appears as a playable character in Tekken Tag Tournament. In her ending, she and Yoshimitsu are about to fight in an area covered in snow. They approach each other with their weapons and a few seconds after they attack each other, Yoshimitsu falls to the ground. Kunimitsu performs a pose and then she disappears.

Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection Edit

Though Kunimitsu does not appear in Dark Resurrection, Yoshimitsu can be customised to look like her.
