The 'Smash Players Saying Kazuya Mishima' meme stems from the intense reaction to Kazuya's reveal as a DLC fighter in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Fans and competitive players became obsessed with the dramatic, guttural way the Tekken announcer pronounces the character's name. This led to a widespread trend where groups of players at tournaments or on streams would chant the name in a deep, exaggerated voice whenever he appeared on screen. The meme highlights the crossover hype between the Tekken and Smash communities, often used to mock the character's powerful 'Touch of Death' combos or simply to celebrate the pure intensity of the fighter's presence in the roster.
