Answer to RaiJinX's question[edit]

RaiJinX asked this question: Does anyone think that Zafina might drastically change the Tekken storyline? However, she removed it from this talk page. I just wanted to answer it. Yes, I think she might. JunKazamaFan 14:30, 15 September 2007 (PDT)

Darn. I hope it doesn't involve killing Jin. --RaiJinX
Well, there's always the possibility that Jin isn't one of those stars. For example, Kazuya and Heihachi could be the stars (since both want to defeat Jin, the two could meet and collide with each other). I highly doubt Namco would kill Jin, since he's a main character and a popular character. JunKazamaFan 18:56, 19 September 2007 (PDT)
^_^ And now I am a bit happier about this. --RaiJinX
I know you won't like what I'm gonna say, but I HOPE them to kill Jin! Don't misunderstand, Jin is one of my favourite characters too, but the storyline seems frozen since Tekken 3, the only changes involved Jin and his relatives. I'd really like them to upset the situation like they've done between Tekken 2 & 3. I'm really tired of games that are the same of the previous episode with only few new characters (this is why I won't buy Tekken 6 for the next few years, Tekken 5 is almost identical) If we like Jin, or any other character there's no need for him to return in future games, we can always play previous Tekkens. Anyway this is a japanese game so they absolutely won't kill the main characters until selling decrease (although selling decrese is possible due to Wii's domination in game consoles market).--KombatGod 22:14, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

RaiJinX's hypothesis[edit]

I have come up with a hypothesis. If Jin Kazama and Kazuya Mishima are the two dark stars, then Unknown Character could be what the two dark stars with inevitably connect with. The Unknown Character could also be what Zafina saw when she opened those two big doors, since her group is protecting this "evil force." Does anyone agree with me? --Rai

Yes, i think the same.

Well, I'm glad someone agrees. --RaiJinX
I agree with you, RaiJinX. JunKazamaFan 18:43, 19 September 2007 (PDT)
^_^ Thanks. --RaiJinX
I agree as well. (DJF)

do we really need to have the appearance section for this article?
I agree with that, but can I also throw in the customization videos? The Appearance part can just go in "Outfits" since I'm not the best at descriptions [with editing the Outfit section]. As for the customization videos, we already have her customization images in the Gallery section, so why not just delete the section in the main article? It could also load the page faster.

Origin[edit]

According to Namco's european Tekken site, she's from India: http://www.tekken6-official.eu/pages/en/59/character.html

Although many of her attack names are more middle-eastern, such as names of ancient Sumerian, Babylonian, and other Mesopotamian gods (Enlil, Inanna, Namtar, Tiamat, etc), so it's possible the site got it wrong. Plus she looks more middle-eastern than Indian.
Took a stab at adding this to the page, However I don't know how to cite information, or change her origin to Unkown, or India, or perhaps it should be left as is? I don't feel right having it say Egypt, because there is nothing proving that, but at the same time there is a lot of things about Zafina that are just bursting to say Egypt, not India. I vote putting her origin as unkown and just citing why. - Revi


I think Zafina is Egyptian because:

1 She protects an Egyptian tomb(it's surely an Egyptian tomb because there are jackal/Anubis statues everywhere).

2 Her accent sounds like an Egyptian accent not like an Indian accent. Thank you for your time.


Harada confirmed her nationality is indeed Egypt: https://twitter.com/Harada_TEKKEN/status/452138449017896960. Yuukimishima (talk) 19:39, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

Zafina's fighting style[edit]

I observed her carefully her fighting style is 90% kalaripayattu. And also she belongs to india according to her eu bio. What do u all think?

The eu site is riddled with too many holes to be a good source. As for her fighting style I personally don't know since it was only called "ancient assassination arts" Toilethead101 16:07 May 16 2013 (PHT)
