Once Jin's mind is focused in any particular direction, it is very difficult to get him to change or even notice the events and people around him. He also has one personality trait which is common with many Japanese action heroes. Jin's personality ranges from calm to angry at various moments, and his words and actions hint toward the bitterness within.

He also has a slight resemblance to his relative, Asuka Kazama, at times. He also has the anger of his father, Kazuya Mishima and his grandfather, Heihachi Mishima. He has the fighting spirit and determination of his half-uncle, Lars and his great grandfather, Jinpachi Mishima, and also has the hidden and personal silence of his legal uncle, Lee Chaolan.

He has the kindness of his mother, Jun Kazama. Each of these occur to a helpless and unassuming Jin, who is simply doing what he can to set things right at every turn. Finally, the return of his great-grandfather, has caused him to begin losing his internal struggle with the Devil within. Third, he was betrayed and shot by his grandfather, whom he trusted and loved deeply. Secondly, his mother was cruelly and abruptly taken from him while he was still a helpless teen. First and foremost, there's the fact that Jin's grandfather and father are two of the most ruthless individuals who've ever lived.

As with many tragedies, all of the major traumatic events that occur within the hero's life are wholly beyond his control. Jin's actions and surroundings fit the mold of a quintessential 'tragic hero,' except for his lack of a tragic flaw. While some fans consider Jin to be somewhat 'one dimensional,' he still has an incredible fan following. He is the protagonist and 'anti-hero' of the Tekken series and the antagonist of Tekken 6. Jin Kazama (風間仁 Kazama Jin) was first introduced in Tekken 3, and he returned to every subsequent game.
