Hosts react to the trailer after a strong top eight showing and start sharing initial impressions.

Kunimitsu’s trailer looks solid with slick design and strong oki after enders, but Maximilian Dood isn’t wowed by the costume and jokes about Tekken leaks and Vega.

Summary

Maximilian Dood dives into Kunimitsu’s Tekken 7 DLC reveal, riffing on the character’s kit and presentation as the trailer plays. He notes potential tools like air fireballs, air kunais, and a forward dash that looks “wild,” while marveling at Kunimitsu’s odachi and the post-ender oki. The host comments on the costume design, calling the in-motion look cool but expressing personal hesitation about the main skin. He reacts to the soundtrack and the character’s vibe, and even speculates about other fighting game rumors—joking about Vega and a possible Tekken leak influence. The stream moves quickly, with a few meta jokes about DLC patterns from Tekken 7 and prior characters like Bob and Roger. Overall, Maximilian finds Kunimitsu visually appealing and competent, yet not “super inspired” by her DLC return. The video blends immediate reaction with playful speculation surrounding the broader fighting game landscape and release timing.

Key Takeaways

  • Kunimitsu’s kit is teased to include air mobility (air fireball, air kunais) and a forward dash, suggesting strong neutral options.
  • The ender oki scene impressed Maximilian, indicating potential solid pressure opportunities after combos.
  • The costume design gets mixed reactions: the in-motion look is cool, but the other skin fell flat for the host.
  • Kunimitsu’s return as DLC echoes Tekken 7’s DLC rhythm, prompting jokes about recurring character patterns.
  • Maximilian imagines surprising crossovers and leak-driven drama (Vega, Waffle House) as playful speculation rather than actual spoilers.
  • The overall impression is positive but not wildly inspiring—Kunimitsu looks good, just not a standout leap in design or toolbox.

LET'S GO. LET'S TAKE A LOOK. TAKE IT BACK TO THE STAGE THOUGH. Oh [ __ ] here we go. A trailer after an incredible top eight, damn. Let's see how much Kunimitsu is going to piss everybody off. She better have an air fireball, right? She at least have air kunais. And then she can teleport after them. Right? The design is a lot. It's a lot. Yeah? I saw a wild ass command dash forward. Uh-oh. Woah. In motion, woah. That costume is actually kind of sick. Oh no, this costume should have been the main. Oh Jesus, dude, this should have been the P1 costume. What the hell? The other one just looks like a Korean MMO skin. Okay. Let's see if you're worthy [music] to be called a ninja. Cool. This is her theme, it's pretty neat. Oh boy. Dude, she gets oki after the ender, too. What the hell? Damn, with the odachi? Bro, we're not playing Nioh. Chill. Huh. Not bad. She does have a flame scarf, yeah. I I ended up really not liking this design. I think it's cool looking here, but in motion, no, I'm a little iffy on it. She looks cool. I'm not [music] like over the moon. What? Woah, combo breaker, we're getting Woah, what? So soon? In a few weeks we get to know the final character? We get to finally see Vega? What if the Tekken guys were so pissed that people were saying that their character is being leaked for another game? And they're like, well, it's time to show them what actually is happening. How crazy would that be? Vega? For Tekken? What if it is the Waffle House? The house itself, not a stage, the whole house. What if it's the Waffle House manager? All right. That's interesting. Kunimitsu looks pretty good. She looks pretty good. Not like super inspired, but she looks It is Kunimitsu, you know? It's crazy that she's DLC again. It really feels like we're repeating a lot of DLC characters from Tekken 7. Although Bob and Roger ain't them.
