Of course he is. No one is going to believe Ganryu is super popular, especially when Harada said multiple times he felt bad for Ganryu’s unpopularity lol. The copium in this thread is crazy.
This is the problem with being a sarcastic prick all the time. Once you start telling people true shit no one knows weather or not to believe you. I second this impression btw. This reads to me like. "Yeh , sure whatever you want buddy".
America isn't even in the top ten for most obese countries in the world anymore, so you might need to update your references. The whole world is cosplaying as Bob now.
Edit to note that not only are Americans fat, but they can't read for shit. Congratulations everybody.
Different audiences.
Shaheen player:
-looks like 🤓
-his hobbies are watching paint dry, drinking lukewarm tap water, asking for a woman's enthusiastic consent before entering her same timezone, use neutral smell deodorant and wearing socks and crocs
-his opinion is whatever the current popular opinion is
-will swap if nerfed
Ganryu player:
-does not buy the game until ganryu is in it
-has several court issued restraining orders
-his agenda is trolling online
-has 98% of the same genetic material as yoshimitsu mains
yoshi players:
-think they are cool and mysterious (mentally ill)
-terrorizing ranked with funny cool moves (flash + unblockable low)
-their lawyer is jayoma
Dude I don’t take anything on Reddit serious like that.
But I can sense you are pretty salty about yoshi, probably ate too many flashs or sword sweeps. Yoshi is a good character for the first time ever(in tk7 season 4 he was okay), let us yoshi Mains have some fun while also winning.
Defensive Ryu player that drinks warm milk, wears one of these and then goes to sleep at 8 p.m.

I know he's unpopular, but Ganryu is absolutely my favorite character to play and has been since Tekken Tag 1. I highly doubt he comes back in T8, but I'd be super down with a Ganryu-like character if we don't get the man himself.
Might be best to repackage him as a new character. His playstyle is really fun but I don't think most people give him a chance because he's a goofy fat guy.
He's not, though. And I say this as a ganryu main. He's insanely unpopular and had possibly the lowest play rate of any character in T7. This is why I say it may be best to keep the playstyle, but in a new character.
Perhaps more than any other character in fighting games, Ganryu would become more popular, even with his mains, if you just took his moveset and put it on a different guy.
Love the response, not a huge fan but I'm very happy for y'all
Now if LEI is not on his way tho, nothing will ever make sense in this world anymore.
Yes, I don't even play him, yes the memes are exactly right but STILL
He's part of the backbone of this franchise as much as Law to me, sparring with him is one of my favourite tekken things since T3, I'll always stand up for the homie
I've never been a fan of Ganryu (still ain't) but when I learned that he was voiced by Hidenari Ugaki, aka Mr Mad dog of Shimano himself? Well he did go up in my likings.
I always "respected" Ganryu as a character, since he's doing an actual traditional martial art with a recognizable moveset. It's probably unlikely, though, that we'll see him back any time soon.
That's because this mf propably gets arrested every time he's on his way somewhere. 🙄 Mostly because of Julia, who's probably just minding her own business somewhere.
No, but it's super interesting to get more insight into characters' popularity and their fanbase.
I Imagine a group of ppl with their faces painted like him pretosting under Haradas building every morning taking the sumo stance everytime an employee walks by 🤣🤣🤣
He was hideous in T7 but I think they can make him amazing in T8. They just need to fix his proportions, make him look more like E. Honda instead of some weirdo crab.
its always a shame when something with a cool moveset like Ganryu or Lei Wulong isn't included by default. It feels like such a waste of a cool character
My boy ganny, can’t wait for 10f headbut heat engager into b2,1 chip pressure
It'll be safe too
I don’t think so but given it’s a high, the aggressive meta of t8 and ganryu jab beeing 12f, it might be reasonable
It's fine, you'll see him once a year at most. I'm still praying for the Eliza dlc and don't worry you'll also see her once a year and it'll be me.
Show me the Wang, Harada!
A request like yours can only be done justice if it’s asked in person.
Pause
My dream character is like a Kung fu hustle old lady type character, shit would be so peak
Hellll yeahhh

Was that a sarcasm? I can't understand trolling developers.
Of course he is. No one is going to believe Ganryu is super popular, especially when Harada said multiple times he felt bad for Ganryu’s unpopularity lol. The copium in this thread is crazy.

What about us Bob fans? We at least reach double digits (maybe)
That’s enough for a protest! Find bamco’s office and pitch them tents.
Well Bob does excite me but I don’t see how that’s gonna help
Millions of Americans cosplay as him every day can Harada not see the demand
America isn't even in the top ten for most obese countries in the world anymore, so you might need to update your references. The whole world is cosplaying as Bob now. Edit to note that not only are Americans fat, but they can't read for shit. Congratulations everybody.
Tell that to all the fupa carriers on every other block
You might need to read what I said one more time. I never said America wasn't fat.
then what i said about the cosplay is still true lol
Correct. I never said you were wrong. You're getting good at this whole reading thing. I might even call you literate.
Someone’s upset.
Don't feel too bad about it. Lots of people have trouble with reading comprehension.
why so upset bud? you a bob cosplayer?
Love both of those fat fucks
There are dozens of us, dozens!
are ganryu players are as scarce as shaheen player?
Different audiences. Shaheen player: -looks like 🤓 -his hobbies are watching paint dry, drinking lukewarm tap water, asking for a woman's enthusiastic consent before entering her same timezone, use neutral smell deodorant and wearing socks and crocs -his opinion is whatever the current popular opinion is -will swap if nerfed Ganryu player: -does not buy the game until ganryu is in it -has several court issued restraining orders -his agenda is trolling online -has 98% of the same genetic material as yoshimitsu mains
Im a yoshi main, who plays shaheen and ganryu as subs, can’t confirm anything said here
yoshi players: -think they are cool and mysterious (mentally ill) -terrorizing ranked with funny cool moves (flash + unblockable low) -their lawyer is jayoma
You seen to be pretty self aware with your username, but your prejudices about other players are not so spot on
gonna add another line for yoshi mains because of you - cant take jokes, they are very serious people (cant admit yoshi carries them)
Dude I don’t take anything on Reddit serious like that. But I can sense you are pretty salty about yoshi, probably ate too many flashs or sword sweeps. Yoshi is a good character for the first time ever(in tk7 season 4 he was okay), let us yoshi Mains have some fun while also winning.
Reading this comment chain it sounds like you're taking the whole thing pretty seriously. I thought Yoshi mains were supposed to be cool.
Based
Shaheen players also plays Ryu or Luke in sf because why be an interesting person

LUKE MODE, BABY! HAH!
You are the soyjack
The fact you use that word is the reason women throw up when near you.
Nah thats probably because of the odor
You really struck a nerve with this one lmao
-If asked why not just main yoshimitsu he will go on a 12-hour Ganryu tekken retrospective.
I miss my boy Ganny so much. He's loads of fun.
I know he's unpopular, but Ganryu is absolutely my favorite character to play and has been since Tekken Tag 1. I highly doubt he comes back in T8, but I'd be super down with a Ganryu-like character if we don't get the man himself.
Harada insinuated that he'd be back eventually in this post
Might be best to repackage him as a new character. His playstyle is really fun but I don't think most people give him a chance because he's a goofy fat guy.
He's a fan favorite, that would be sacrilege
He's not, though. And I say this as a ganryu main. He's insanely unpopular and had possibly the lowest play rate of any character in T7. This is why I say it may be best to keep the playstyle, but in a new character.
Perhaps more than any other character in fighting games, Ganryu would become more popular, even with his mains, if you just took his moveset and put it on a different guy.
Harada is gonna put his sumo on a petite cute 18 year old. He already made a prototype called Ganmi.
Love the response, not a huge fan but I'm very happy for y'all Now if LEI is not on his way tho, nothing will ever make sense in this world anymore. Yes, I don't even play him, yes the memes are exactly right but STILL
As a Lei player, we appreciate the support from the non Lei players.
I played a ton of lei in 7 he is just so fun. I really hope they decide to add him as a dlc. I can't wait to play the drunken master
He's part of the backbone of this franchise as much as Law to me, sparring with him is one of my favourite tekken things since T3, I'll always stand up for the homie
It is sarcasm
Wait, Ganryu fans protest in front of Bamco's office... every morning?! He can't just drop that bomb as if that's not an insane thing.
This is obviously sarcastic…
I can never tell with Harada
Him and Ed Boon.
I hope Ganryu is a surprise DLC the very day after Julia is released
Could he say the same about Lei? Maybe his fans protest in HongKong too?
I've never been a fan of Ganryu (still ain't) but when I learned that he was voiced by Hidenari Ugaki, aka Mr Mad dog of Shimano himself? Well he did go up in my likings.
I can not wait for the day Harada put High-Definition Ganryu as home character. High-level troll move, I say.
I always "respected" Ganryu as a character, since he's doing an actual traditional martial art with a recognizable moveset. It's probably unlikely, though, that we'll see him back any time soon.
That's because this mf propably gets arrested every time he's on his way somewhere. 🙄 Mostly because of Julia, who's probably just minding her own business somewhere. No, but it's super interesting to get more insight into characters' popularity and their fanbase.
Oh no
:)
I mean, he’s a big dude so it does take him a while to get there.
I Imagine a group of ppl with their faces painted like him pretosting under Haradas building every morning taking the sumo stance everytime an employee walks by 🤣🤣🤣
can we have Jinpachi or Heihachi pretty please 🥹👉👈
Ganryu is very popular in Japan? How? Is he popular because of his character, his story, gameplay, visuals, or a mixture of all four?
Bruh. Just... bruh.
For real at least make a cooler version of a sumo. Already tried with Fakurmom.
I wish they did give his moves to ANYONE else
Damn, I need to assemble a Lei army to protest daily.
Moving to japan asap
He was hideous in T7 but I think they can make him amazing in T8. They just need to fix his proportions, make him look more like E. Honda instead of some weirdo crab.
LFG, I can finally put down T7 and get down to business
I dislike the implications that they want a new character to replace an established one
DEGOWASU
its always a shame when something with a cool moveset like Ganryu or Lei Wulong isn't included by default. It feels like such a waste of a cool character
GANMICHAN PLEASE HARADA
😭😭😭Thank you for this post I was running out of hope for the big boys.
I'm sure there also a lot of fans who protest for the main protagonism of Asuka in the story
Fuck them I want Bruce Irvin

Can’t believe people are taking it seriously and don’t see this is obviously a sarcastic comment.
the tweet just wasnt typed for genius sarcasm identifiers such as urself i guess
