* "Black Winter Night Sky" (the opening theme of ''Tekken 2'') seems to have become a minor one, It's being used for everything from ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZWZKBnZVQg Sailor Moon]]'' to ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKITLzaZzCs Dead Space.]]''
* THIS IS REAL TIGER UPPERCUT!!!!!!!!! [[labelnote:Explanation]]Harada-san tweeted this exact line alongside Kazumi Mishima's playable reveal trailer, in reference to the fact that she can summon a tiger to do an uppercut for her. The FGC quickly caught on.[[/labelnote]]
* "You ain't got one? WELL I DO!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]From Hwoarang's ending in Tekken 4, after Jin says that there's no reason for them to fight again. This one became memeworthy due to Hwoarang's overly hammy English voice acting. Fans also get a kick out of Jin's oddly accented "There's no reason to fight" since that is in fact Isshin Chiba (Jin's VA) trying to speak English.[[/labelnote]]
* Early 2017 [[labelnote:Explanation]]The initial estimated release period of ''Tekken 7''. Only a day after 2017 began, Namco released a trailer revealing the game's official release date: June 2, 2017 (read: nowhere close to early 2017, more like mid-2017). As such, "Early 2017" is now used sarcastically, especially by the FGC.[[/labelnote]]
* It's definitely not a ____ fighting game.[=/=]It's not ____. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Tekken 7's VirtualPaperDoll feature is surprisingly robust for what it is.

Of course, in the face of the internet, the first thing they think of the name 'Leroy' would be... LeeroyJenkins of the viral video from ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft''. So fans like to meme Smith out to act more like Jenkins. In Leroy's reveal trailer in ''8'', Lenne Hardt announces his name loudly in a similar manner with the video (albeit with the "Smith" in a Japanese pronunciation), making some people think that she could switch out from 'Smith' into 'Jenkins' and it will still feel the same.[[/labelnote]]

* '''I'M NOT GONNA SUGARCOAT IT.

Considering how the third installment was a staple title of the original UsefulNotes/PlayStation and was exposed to a wide audience back in the day (and the same is true for the [[VideoGame/Tekken7 seventh installment]]), where there's a vast, large audience comes plenty of [[MemeticMutation memes]].
----
* "Black Winter Night Sky" (the opening theme of ''Tekken 2'') seems to have become a minor one, It's being used for everything from ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZWZKBnZVQg Sailor Moon]]'' to ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKITLzaZzCs Dead Space.]]''
* THIS IS REAL TIGER UPPERCUT!!!!!!!!! [[labelnote:Explanation]]Harada-san tweeted this exact line alongside Kazumi Mishima's playable reveal trailer, in reference to the fact that she can summon a tiger to do an uppercut for her. The FGC quickly caught on.[[/labelnote]]
* "You ain't got one? WELL I DO!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]From Hwoarang's ending in Tekken 4, after Jin says that there's no reason for them to fight again. This one became memeworthy due to Hwoarang's overly hammy English voice acting. Fans also get a kick out of Jin's oddly accented "There's no reason to fight" since that is infact Isshin Chiba (Jin's VA) trying to speak English.[[/labelnote]]
* Early 2017 [[labelnote:Explanation]]The initial estimated release period of ''Tekken 7''. Only a day after 2017 began, Namco released a trailer revealing the game's official release date: June 2, 2017 (read: nowhere close to early 2017, more like mid-2017). As such, "Early 2017" is now used sarcastically, especially by the FGC.[[/labelnote]]
* It's definitely not a ____ fighting game.[=/=]It's not ____. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Tekken 7's VirtualPaperDoll feature is surprisingly robust for what it is. Several characters are customized to resemble characters from another franchise, and it's made to look like it's a fighting game based on that franchise[[/labelnote]].
* '''THE PIZZA, HE-MAN! ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvDjxHnxxh0&t=4150s EAT IT!!!]]''''' [[labelnote:Explanation]]Joel from ''Vinesauce'' streamed ''Tekken 7'' using Bryan, customized to resemble Skeletor. He eventually found an opponent using Dragunov customized to resemble He-Man. [[HilarityEnsues Hilarity did indeed ensue.]][[/labelnote]].
* '''WHINING FOOLS BEGONE!''' [[labelnote:Explanation]]The reveal trailer for Geese Howard includes this line. The fans interpreted it as a not-so subtle meta jab thrown in by Harada, who has been known for trolling antics on Twitter.[[/labelnote]]
* [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C6ZJMNRXEAAxoMn.jpg:orig Akuma with a Shotgun]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Tekken allows every single fighter to be customized and some of the items that they can be given can be used with secret input so the Idea of customizing Akuma in of itself is hilarious. But what has fans rolling is the fact that you can give Akuma of all people a shotgun and then have him ''use'' it. [[/labelnote]].
* [[HashtagForLaughs #BuffLars]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Made the rounds across the community rather swiftly when it became widely accepted that Lars has been weakened after two games' worth of top-tier dominance. The meme stems from the extent to which the character was nerfed, rendering him less than a shell of his former self that is outshone by majority of the cast in every aspect (movement, frame data, punishment, etc.) Upon the release of Season 2, however, suffice it to say this is now HilariousInHindsight. [[/labelnote]]
* [[Franchise/TheWalkingDead Negan]] in ''VideoGame/Tekken7'' created one for the whole FGC. After his announcement, a lot of people started making [[UnexpectedCharacter equally out there]] predictions in-line with it stating that all bets are off now. These include [[Series/{{Arrow}} Arrow]] in ''VideoGame/DeadOrAlive6'' and [[Series/GameOfThrones Jon Snow]] in ''VideoGame/SoulcaliburVI''.
** Some people like to misspell Negan as Megan, leading to jokes like "Megan from ''Drake and Josh'' joins the fight".
* Don't ask me for shit [[labelnote:Explanation]]Series producer Katsuhiro Harada has practically turned this into his CatchPhrase after having to deal with his series' fanbase, to the point where he's taken to wearing a shirt bearing the phrase upon it. Now [[AscendedMeme ascended]] as Negan says this in his trailer.[[/labelnote]]

* [[YourMom Fuck Ur Mom]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]The newest character, Fahkumram, has been instantly christened "Fuck Ur Mom" by the fans due to being unable to properly pronounce his name and his intimidating appearance.[[/labelnote]]
* Teh Ken [[labelnote:Explanation]]At The Game Awards 2019, when Creator/MichelleRodriguez and Creator/VinDiesel went up to present the Game of the Year award, Michelle proceeded to pull an AccentUponTheWrongSyllable regarding the series' name in a very cringeworthy moment.[[/labelnote]]
* I'm a bricklayer, I work for three days! Without a salary! [[labelnote:Explanation]]In 2005, two Russian students made a parody translation of Bryan Fury's ending in ''3'', turning it into a story of a bricklayer who tries to escape the armed police after stealing a loaf of bread from a bakery stall. The resulting [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfMQsXfDuno video]] exploded in ex-USSR years later thanks to its hammy qualities and memorable quotes, turning into a source of parodies in itself and receiving translations to different languages (including an authentic [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39odt6_9Lfg English dub]]).

* [[GagPenis Mardick]][=/=]DON'T SEARCH UP "EDDY GORDO" ON GOOGLE IMAGE SEARCH! WORST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE![[labelnote:Explanation]]A warning from various Tekken community from searching up Eddy Gordon on Google image search. Should anyone of you do just that, well... You will be greeted by ('''WARNING!''' '''NOT SAFE FOR WORK! Access on your own risk!''') an image of Craig Marduk with his "interesting assets" out from an unassuming free image hosting website. The name "Mardick" has become a FanNickname for Marduk because of this.[[/labelnote]]
* "[[VideoGame/StreetFighter Hadouken]]" -[[VideoGame/FatalFury Terry Bogard]][[labelnote:Explanation]]A four way crossover meme, that's just an image of Jin Kazama, with the aforementioned caption displayed, and with the VideoGame/MortalKombat logo right next to him. Makes the rounds quite frequently as a deliberate CowboyBebopAtHisComputer act to troll fans.[[/labelnote]]
* '''I'M NOT GONNA SUGARCOAT IT. '''[[labelnote:Explanation]]Each time Kazuya spams his Electric Wind God Fist to a wall cornered opponent, fans tend to put an image of him with the caption "I'M NOT GONNA SUGARCOAT IT" with the ''Tekken 2'' game font at the top and the command of the aforementioned special at the bottom, which is ''f, n, d/f+2''.[[/labelnote]]
* Such pathetic words, X.[[labelnote:Explanation]]Kazuya's response to Jin's "People like us shouldn't even exist in this world" in the Tekken 8 gameplay video quickly became a source of memes for taking jabs at certain people, like drama queens.[[/labelnote]]

* "Black Winter Night Sky" (the opening theme of ''Tekken 2'') seems to have become a minor one, It's being used for everything from ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZWZKBnZVQg Sailor Moon]]'' to ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKITLzaZzCs Dead Space.]]''
* THIS IS REAL TIGER UPPERCUT!!!!!!!!! [[labelnote:Explanation]]Harada-san tweeted this exact line alongside Kazumi Mishima's playable reveal trailer, in reference to the fact that she can summon a tiger to do an uppercut for her. The FGC quickly caught on.[[/labelnote]]
* "You ain't got one? WELL I DO!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]From Hwoarang's ending in Tekken 4, after Jin says that there's no reason for them to fight again. This one became memeworthy due to Hwoarang's overly hammy English voice acting. Fans also get a kick out of Jin's oddly accented "There's no reason to fight" since that is infact Isshin Chiba (Jin's VA) trying to speak English.[[/labelnote]]
* Early 2017 [[labelnote:Explanation]]The initial estimated release period of ''Tekken 7''. Only a day after 2017 began, Namco released a trailer revealing the game's official release date: June 2, 2017 (read: nowhere close to early 2017, more like mid-2017). As such, "Early 2017" is now used sarcastically, especially by the FGC.[[/labelnote]]
* It's definitely not a ____ fighting game.[=/=]It's not ____. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Tekken 7's VirtualPaperDoll feature is surprisingly robust for what it is. Several characters are customized to resemble characters from another franchise, and it's made to look like it's a fighting game based on that franchise[[/labelnote]].
* '''THE PIZZA, HE-MAN! ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvDjxHnxxh0&t=4150s EAT IT!!!]]''''' [[labelnote:Explanation]]Joel from ''Vinesauce'' streamed ''Tekken 7'' using Bryan, customized to resemble Skeletor. He eventually found an opponent using Dragunov customized to resemble He-Man. [[HilarityEnsues Hilarity did indeed ensue.]][[/labelnote]].
* '''WHINING FOOLS BEGONE!''' [[labelnote:Explanation]]The reveal trailer for Geese Howard includes this line. The fans interpreted it as a not-so subtle meta jab thrown in by Harada, who has been known for trolling antics on Twitter.[[/labelnote]]
* [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C6ZJMNRXEAAxoMn.jpg:orig Akuma with a Shotgun]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Tekken allows every single fighter to be customized and some of the items that they can be given can be used with secret input so the Idea of customizing Akuma in of itself is hilarious. But what has fans rolling is the fact that you can give Akuma of all people a shotgun and then have him ''use'' it. [[/labelnote]].
* [[HashtagForLaughs #BuffLars]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Made the rounds across the community rather swiftly when it became widely accepted that Lars has been weakened after two games' worth of top-tier dominance. The meme stems from the extent to which the character was nerfed, rendering him less than a shell of his former self that is outshone by majority of the cast in every aspect (movement, frame data, punishment, etc.) Upon the release of Season 2, however, suffice it to say this is now HilariousInHindsight. [[/labelnote]]
* [[Franchise/TheWalkingDead Negan]] in ''VideoGame/Tekken7'' created one for the whole FGC. After his announcement, a lot of people started making [[UnexpectedCharacter equally out there]] predictions in-line with it stating that all bets are off now. These include [[Series/{{Arrow}} Arrow]] in ''VideoGame/DeadOrAlive6'' and [[Series/GameOfThrones Jon Snow]] in ''VideoGame/SoulcaliburVI''.
** Some people like to misspell Negan as Megan, leading to jokes like "Megan from ''Drake and Josh'' joins the fight".
* Don't ask me for shit [[labelnote:Explanation]]Series producer Katsuhiro Harada has practically turned this into his CatchPhrase after having to deal with his series' fanbase, to the point where he's taken to wearing a shirt bearing the phrase upon it. Now [[AscendedMeme ascended]] as Negan says this in his trailer.[[/labelnote]]
* [[WebVideo/LeeroyJenkinsVideo LEEROOOOOOYYYY SMMMIIITTTHH!!!]][[labelnote:Explanation]]''Tekken 7''[='=]s Season 3's newcomer is named 'Leroy Smith'. Of course, in the face of the internet, the first thing they think of the name 'Leroy' would be... LeeroyJenkins from the viral video from ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft''.
