Kunimitsu II

Personality

Loyal and loving to her family, Kunimitsu dedicated herself to her shinobi training, taking up her mother's Manji Ninja Arts as the main template for her fighting style. After eventually surpassing her mother, she took up her mother's title, admiring her, and became a phantom thief, pilfering various high-stake items for high-class clients to give her family funds for a comfortable life. When her mother fell ill, she learns of the phantom sword Yoshimitsu; the legendary blade her great-grandfather desired to replicate, but could not attain as her mother was defeated by Yoshimitsu. Determined to make her mother happy, she seeks after the very sword her mother covets.

Appearance

Kunimitsu II is a ninja who wields a kodachi and primarily a tanto (akin to her mother who used a kunai). She has long black hair with a full fringe streaked with red and purple, and a high ponytail with the tips also dyed with red and purple highlights. She has purple eyeshadow and two purple-red markings under each of her eyes, typically representing kitsune fox spirits. She has gray eyes, and also appears to have a similar beauty mark on her chin as her mother, although hers is on the right side of her lip. Her outfit is a black ninja garb with three sheathed kunai, two fox tails with red tips, and her own kitsune mask. She also wears a long tattered scarf with cherry blossom patterns.

Story I

An interest shared with her mother, Kunimitsu was especially interested in industrial technology, so she accepted and decided to go to Mishima Polytechnical School undercover as a student to investigate the Mishima Zaibatsu. It was rumored that the school was somehow connected to the Tekken Force, the special operations unit of the Mishima Zaibatsu. One day, Kunimitsu got a call that her mother's condition had worsened. She rushed to see her bedridden mother and heard the story of the only thing her mother could not obtain in the past. Kunimitsu was then determined to obtain the sword called "Yoshimitsu" from Yoshimitsu to cheer her mother up.

Story II

Denouncing her Japanese nationality, Kunimitsu (I) joined the Manji Clan — headed by none other than Yoshimitsu — to learn the art of Manji Ninjutsu and hone her thieving skills, stealing from the rich to give to the poor under the Manji Clan’s guidance. However, her sights soon turned toward more personal pursuits, and she set out to steal a highly coveted Native American treasure from Michelle Chang in the very first King of Iron Fist Tournament. After ultimately being defeated, Kunimitsu then sought out the Yoshimitsu sword on her grandfather’s behalf, who wished to create a replica of the weapon — but her efforts were thwarted by Yoshimitsu himself, causing her to retreat to her family home out of humiliation. Later on, she married a shinobi ninja and gave birth to a daughter, who took up her parents’ ninja ways and even surpassed them in skill. Using the name of her mother — who had grown ill over time — Kunimitsu II began working as a freelancer, taking on various jobs from high-paying clients like governments and large corporations to purloin important items for their benefit. One day, Kunimitsu II received a mission from a high-profile client, who asked her to investigate the Mishima Zaibatsu by going undercover at the Mishima Polytechnical School as a high school student. The client suspected that the school was somehow connected to the Tekken Force, the special operations unit of the Mishima Zaibatsu. Taking after her mother’s interest in industrial technology, Kunimitsu II readily agreed to the job — until she received news that her mother’s fragile condition had worsened. Rushing back to her family home, Kunimitsu II learned of the one treasure that her now-bedridden mother hadn’t been able to steal in the past. Determined to cheer her up, she set out to retrieve the sword that her grandfather had once coveted many years ago… a sword that caused her mother to retreat from ninja life.
