addressing the haters
because he has them
LOL YOU MAD?
Let's face it, Lars' reception wasn't all that welcoming in Tekken 6 from what I've seen. I'm going to attempt to address all the issues with Lars. Now, remember, this is all strictly my opinion/attitude in this address, you're free to have your own opinions. Warning, there's some swearing and snarking abounds because the levels of hate Lars gets are RIDICULOUS.

What the hell, Lars came from nowhere AND he's a Mishima?! BULLSHIT.
If I recall correctly, Jin came from nowhere and was a replacement for Kazuya. What's the difference? And yes, Lars IS a Mishima. Do you know why? Because Heihachi fucked around in Sweden—Scandinavia if you wanna be precise—and got a woman pregnant. That woman is Lars' mother. Since Heihachi is Lars' father, that makes him a Mishima. I believe this is common knowledge. Illegitimate children tend to come from nowhere unless said otherwise.

He's a DBZ Rip-off!
Oh wow, who DOESN'T have oddly spiky hair that looks like it takes twenty cans of Aquanet hairspray to use? I'm surprised you guys haven't mentioned the likes of Yuugi from Yuugiou/Yu-Gi-Oh or Yuusei from 5D's. Perhaps I should also point out that Heihachi has some DBZ hair himself? I wouldn't say DBZ, I'd lean more toward Kamen Rider. But since Kamen Rider is cool/badass, that isn't necessarily a bad thing....

He took over the storyline/Scenario Campaign was all about him!
Oh, hun, SC was told from HIS POV. The storyline?

Story Line base = Jin. -(12:27 PM Aug 3rd) Katsuhiro Harada's Twitter (Harada likes Jin too so...)
See where I'm going with this? I'm sure you do. SC was a tool to introduce you, the player to Lars and Alisa. You saw them, right? However, we still know zero to nothing about Lars, we just took a look at the events of Tekken 6 through his POV. I'm also pretty sure you'd be bitching if it was told from a non-Mishima's POV too. The point is this, The storyline is still owned by the Mishimas, with a preference toward Jin. Jin's endings in Tekken 3-5 were all canon, so cease your bitching because Scenario Campaign's canon. If you're so bent on believing Jin's Arena ending is canon, I'm not stopping you. But it's a little off that in one part Jin voluntarily wans to sacrifice himself, and in another he just gets picked up because he left his kin sans Lars to die...

HE SUCKED UP ALL THE SCREEN TIME AND LEFT NO ROOM FOR *insert character here*!
...YOU MEAN YOUR FAVORITE CHARACTER DIDN'T APPEAR IN SCENARIO CAMPAIGN?! HOW DARE LARS TAKE AWAY VALUABLE SCREEN TIME FROM—Wait, what? You mean all 40 Characters appeared in SC? Oh, then what the hell are you complaining for? Go play Arena mode and fawn over your character there. For four stages. You can also turn the cutscenes off :)

HE'S RESPONSIBLE FOR US NOT SEEING KAZUYA VS JIN!
Kazuya vs Jin already happened dearies. BACK IN TEKKEN 4. If they clashed now, AGAIN, that would mean the end of the world/Tekken-verse. The objective is to make sure that DIDN'T happen, remember? It was also to stop that giant werechicken-lizard Azazel, but yeah. If they were to clash = end of Tekken-verse.

HE'S TAKING JIN'S SPOT AS THE MAIN CHARACTER! THAT SON OF A BITCH!
Look, everybody might as well have been sucking Jin's dick when Tekken 3 came out. Not counting those who were rabid Kazuya fans and were wondering who the hell Jin was, coming up in Tekken and taking Kazuya's shine like that. Jin was heralded as the 'good' Mishima out of him, Heihachi, and Daddy Kazuya from Tekken 3 to Tekken 5. Tekken 5 showed Jin finally becoming the evil bastard he always was on the inside voluntarily. There had to be a good Mishima out of the bunch, I think Lars fits that role perfectly. And besides, wasn't a Mishima on the face of every Tekken? Yeah, thought so.

HE'S A FUCKING OVERRATED DOUCHEBAG!
who you're secretly fapping to. No, but seriously. Lars isn't a douche. He's actually quite nice and compassionate. Caring even. Much more than the other Mishima men. He's also strong when he needs to be. I don't know where overrated came from to be honest, but...yeah. Lars isn't a douchebag. Maybe he is for liking that facebook status...

HE BETRAYED JIN! HE MUST DIE!
Jin, not under the control of the Devil Gene, voluntarily decided to declare the Zaibatsu as an independent nation. Jin plunged the world into chaos and suffering—It's safe for me assume that innocent people have died in the midst of this chaos—all for the sake of luring Azazel out just so he could kill the beast and himself. You mean to tell me that your precious poster boy Jin killed people and caused suffering because HE was so tortured by the Devil Gene, and wanted so desperately to get rid of it...and you're hating Lars for having his conscience tell him that this didn't feel right? You're pissed off at Lars for having a conscience. Not to mention, Jin didn't tell Lars anything. I don't give a fuck if you're king of the world, if I'm supposed to be protecting you, I at least have a right to know why you're causing all of this shit. I'm not forgetting that Lars came to understand Jin's actions, but that still doesn't give him a free pass to try and delete fucking everything.

Have you seen his fanbase?! That's reason enough to hate him right there! TOO. MANY. FANS.
Yeah that's such a legitimate reason to hate a character. A totally legitimate reason. /sarcasm :/
