History Characters / Tekken4

* DemotedToExtra: Was meant to be the main Capoeirista for the series with her debut in ''4'', even though Eddy was still present - albeit as an alternate costume for her that slowly diverged over time. Come ''7'', and Eddy instead took that spot back with Christie being absent. The trend continues in ''8'', with Eddy being announced as the first DLC character and no word about Christie at all.

!!Miharu Hirano

* {{Hunk}}: He's pure, mass muscle, and handsome enough for the ladies he hooks up with outside of his circuit.

* HeelFaceTurn: After being defeated by King II in ''5'', he becomes a lot more humble.

* MovesetClone: She becomes one for Eddy, seemingly taking the Characters/StreetFighterKenMasters route (speed-focusing).

* {{Hunk}}: PlayedForLaughs in his ''8'' ending. After winning the tournament, he steadily advances his boxing career to the point that he eventually competes in ''heavyweight''-level boxing... and becomes a hulking mass of man in the process. Paul and Law are rather horrified when they learn about the fact.

* MommyIssues: In ''6'', he's far from pleased by seeing Nina again in Scenario Campaign. His specific intro line in ''8'' has him refer to Nina as "the last person I want to fight".
* LukeYouAreMyFather: Nina Williams turns out to be his biological mother.

* WalkingShirtlessScene: Justified, since he's a boxer. His everyday attires sometimes exhibit something resembling this one too, like the Hawaiian shirt in ''Tekken 4''.

* RaceLift: While her race is in question, in [[Film/Tekken2010 the live-action film]], she's played by the very white Creator/KellyOverton.
* SatelliteCharacter: Eddy's been the focus of practically all her storylines, from her debut up to Tekken 6, her last game to date. Hell, before ''[=TTT2=]'', she even shared all her endings with him! To put this into perspective, nearly every topic that comes out of Christie's mouth revolves around "Eddy, Eddy, Eddy, Eddy, and Eddy."

* ArmorPiercingSlap: In Eddy's ending in ''6'', at her grandfather's grave, the first thing Christie does when she spots him is to slap him in the face and chew him out for disappearing when she needed him the most.

* ButtonMashing: Being a MovesetClone of Eddy and all.

* ExtremityExtremist: His kick buttons mostly consist of weaving and dodging, with very few actual kicks in his moveset. To wit, his few kicks include [[CombatPragmatist a stomp on his opponent's foot]] (A textbook cheat move in Boxing, since one can always pretend it was accidental), which can be followed by a quick right hook, a jumping football kick since Tekken 5 that is clumsy-looking but otherwise a good launcher for juggle combos. ''Tag Tournament 2'' gives him an item move kick that [[AmusingInjuries causes him to hop up and down clutching the foot he kicked with]] afterward.

* ChildByRape: Indirectly, but Nina absolutely didn't consent to having her cells harvested when she was put under and gestated to make Steve. Her reaction to Steve definitely echoes sentiments that she sees him like this.

* LandDownunder: As is typical of fighting game Aussies, he is depicted as a hulking brute.

* IconicSequalCharacter: Steve is a major fixture of the cast, having not missed a single game since his introduction, but was only introduced in the 4th mainline installment.

* MartialArtistsAreAlwaysBarefoot: Being a capoeista, she naturally goes barefoot in her default outfits; though her main alternate outfits do have her in sandals.

* LightningBruiser: Quick as a whip, has some very sneaky attacks and deceptive movement patterns, and has enough oomph in his punches to make him arguably the best dang character in ''Tekken 5'' and ''Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion''.

* CuteBruiser: A cute, energetic girl who can kickk her opponent's ass one minute, and take selfies with them the next.

* MovesetClone: Of Xiaoyu, though she apparently is a little better gameplay-wise due to a glitch that seemingly makes her attacks a little stronger. ''Tag 2'' differentiates them a little more.

%%* LightningBruiser: Quick as a whip, has some very sneaky attacks and deceptive movement patterns, and is the best dang character in ''Tekken 5'' and ''Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion''.

%%* KickChick
* LegFocus: She usually has one costume that leaves the legs completely bare, and [[https://youtu.be/LZN06PBoOLE?t=27s even shows then off in a winpose of hers]].

%%* BadassAdorable

%%* CuteBruiser

%%* PaletteSwap: For Xiaoyu, natch.
%%** Grows into DivergentCharacterEvolution by the time of ''Tag 2''.

->Unlocked as a time-release DLC character in a patch for Tekken Tag Tournament 2 on October 9, 2012. She uses a modified version of Xiaoyu's moveset that greatly resembles her older movesets, but occasionally Miharu will lose her balance and trip.

* SecretCharacter: You have to complete story mode with Xiaoyu to select her in ''4''. In ''Tag 2'', she's DLC.

* MommyIssues: In ''6'', he's far from pleased by seeing Nina again in Scenario Campaign.
