As it turns out, in Tekken Heihachi Mishima actually has dozens of children, but only 9 are confirmed and only 4 are revealed now.
On January 16, 2011, Harada answered this question on his Twitter account. The question was whether Heihachi had any other extramarital children. The answer is a surprising 18-25 children worldwide or even more.
However, Harada only confirmed 9 children. As of now, we already know there are at least 4 of Heihachi’s children that have been revealed. There is one legitimate child of his wife, one adopted child, and two illegitimate children.
Curious who they are? Let’s see the explanation below!

List of Heihachi Mishima 4 Children in Tekken
1. Kazuya Mishima
Kazuya Mishima is the son of Heihachi and Kazumi Mishima, Heihachi’s legal wife. Even though Kazuya is Heihachi’s legitimate son, from Tekken 1 to Tekken 7, Kazuya’s relationship with Heihachi is pretty bad.
2. Lars Alexandersson
Lars Alexandersson is one of Heihachi Mishima’s illegitimate children. His mother was a Swedish woman, and Lars also has Swedish citizenship. However, his mother’s identity is still a mystery.
3. Lee Chaolan
Lee Chaolan is actually Heihachi’s adopted son. Well, Heihachi raised Lee as a rival for Kazuya at his training ground.
But in the end, Lee and Kazuya really became rivals. Lee has been expelled from the Mishima Zaibatsu. What’s unique is that after Lee was expelled from the Mishima Zaibatsu, he became a better character. He really helped in Tekken 6 and Tekken 7 games.
4. Reina
Before Tekken 8 was released, many people had speculated that Reina was Heihachi’s daughter. The question of whether Reina is really Heihachi’s child was finally answered in the post-credit scene of The Dark Awakens, which clearly confirmed that Reina is Heihachi Mishima’s daughter!
So, although Reina addresses Jin as “senpai”, she is actually Jin’s aunt. She is also supposed to be one of Heihachi Mishima’s many illegitimate children.
Now, what makes people curious is this. The characters who had the Devil Gene before were Kazumi Mishima and her descendants, namely Kazuya (Kazumi’s son) and Jin (Kazuya’s son).
Apparently, Reina also had the Devil Gene. If she was Heihachi’s illegitimate child, how could she have the Devil Gene? Who is her mother?
