General:
As the leader of
the Manji Party, Yoshimitsu dedicated himself to providing food, medical
assistance, and shelter to the ever-increasing number of political refugees
around the world. Unfortunately, with a constant lack of necessary funding
and manpower, Yoshimitsu was unsure about the future of his organization.
When Yoshimitsu heard about The King of Iron Fist Tournament 4, he envisioned
a union between the Manji Party and the Mishima Zaibatsu. With this dream
in mind, Yoshimitsu decides to enter the Tournament immediately. He must
defeat Heihachi Mishima at any
cost.
Trying to avenge his fallen Manji clan comrades, while going after Bryan Fury, Yoshimitsu realizes that his sword is weakening. His sword is a cursed blade. By killing evil doers and villains the sword would retain its power, otherwise the cursed sword will make the user go insane. Yoshimitsu realizes that he can no longer use his old sword and decides to use another blade that seals the properties of the cursed sword. He then decides to enter the King of Iron Fist Tournament 6.

Comment:
I believe Yoshimitsu
has the most "costumes" of any fighting game character in history. The
fact that his design has gone through so many renditions and changes always
gives Yoshimitsu a unique and fresh aura. He's got a few traditional samurai
looks, a few cyborg/ninja/samurai looks, a bug-ish look, a squid-like look,
and that's not even all... Heh. Aside from that, he's got some crazy/hilarious
moves, which definitely add to the cleverness of his design. And hell,
he can kill himself during the fight (and his opponent along with him)...
An innovative design if you ask me.
