TRIANGLES
The series itself is a good expanded retelling of Tekken 3 with some characters from later Tekkens being added in (Feng, Marduk, Steve, and the only one with more than a cameo, Leroy).
Interesting to see Leroy in his first appearance outside of his DLC character status.
Overall the series was pretty solid from the storytelling standpoint, and is very faithful to the Tekken lore.
What drags this down to a 6 for me, instead of a 7+ is the fact that I can't stop looking at these goddamn triangles. No matter the light source, day or night, inside or outside, standing or leaning, EVERY SINGLE CHARACTER (animals included) has this annoying triangle on their head. Happens to their hands when they punch too. It's like they have a reverse outline, of light.
The longer the series went on, the more noticeable it became. It just looks silly most of the time. It's like someone forgot to add another layer during the animation process. It's by far the biggest flaw, because I cannot stop looking at it.
It's so distracting, that I even zoned out in a couple fights (Jin v Hworang, Xiaoyu v Nina).
