Nina and Anna are frequently bickering throughout the movie. The movie seems to have toned down the rivalry rather than removed it


** Nina and Anna's grudge, which their entire backstory revolves around, is gone, to the point where they have no problem having an incestuous three-way with Kazuya.

** [[spoiler:Although it was averted as seen in TheStinger, the Jackhammer ordered to kill Heihachi to self-detonation is a reference to how Heihachi presumably died at the beginning of 5, and Kazuya, who in the games fed Heihachi to the Jack-4s, ironically says Raven's "Heihachi Mishima is dead."]]
