Panda is a recurring character in the Tekken franchise. She is a giant Panda and the loyal pet, best friend, and bodyguard of Ling Xiaoyu.
She is voiced by Taketora.
Biography[]
When Ling gets Heihachi's attention, he also runs Panda through Kuma-style training. Kuma II ends up falling in love with her as a result, although she does not return his affection and finds his attempts at her annoying. Wherever Xiaoyu goes, Panda is usually not far behind, acting as her bodyguard in every single tournament. After the 6th tournament, however, the news of Jin's disappearance causes Xiaoyu to leave unexpectedly. Worried for her mistress, Panda sets out for the 7th tournament in search of Xiaoyu, eventually finding her in the Mishima Zaibatsu headquarters with info about Jin's location on hand. While surprised by her master's intentions to travel the world to find him, Panda still sticks with Xiaoyu as much as the latter wants to find Jin.
Personality[]
Very intelligent, Panda seems to have an almost human-like empathy and thought process. She is shown to be very considerate to Xiaoyu when she is upset, as well as supportive towards her decisions. She sometimes shows a playful side, similar to Xiaoyu.
Panda is often shown rejecting Kuma, sometimes resorting to physical violence as he seeks her out with romantic intent. Although she seems uninterested in Kuma romantically, she does occasionally think of him.
Abilities[]
Panda uses Kuma Shinken, the same fighting style as Kuma II. Starting in Tekken 8, Panda inherits attacks from Xiaoyu.
