And today, a few months after its release, many new creations are still being seen in all social networks, such as those shared by a user, which surprises us by showing us “waifus” from the world of anime and animation in general.

With the release of the fighting video game Tekken 8, players not only found an excellent fighting title where the number of characters and fighting styles were incredible, but this first aspect could be expanded, and the customization system is so complex, as well as complete that the community took full advantage of this. Now a user of the social network Twitter/X shared two videos where we see several recreated characters, among them the “waifus” of Evangelion, but also those of the animated series Totally Spies!

In the first video, we see that it focuses more on the anime series Evangelion, as within Tekken 8 the community has taken the work of bringing some of the most recognized characters of the franchise, among them highlighting the “waifus” most beloved of all. We can see in the video the beloved Asuka Langley who is the one who opens the video with her characteristic red bodysuit, followed by Rei Ayanami with her black and white one. Older girls also appear, such as Misato Katsuragi recreated in the game, but not only they are present, as both Shinji Ikari and Kaworu Nagisa were “added” to Tekken 8.

But not only Evangelion is the focus of this publication and is that as an added extra we see the characters of a recognized animated series very popular for the western public, in this case Totally Spies!, and is that the ability that the game has for the community to create what they want is total. In the video we will see Clover, Sam or Alex among some of the other girls, all with their classic spy costumes, so seeing them recreated in the game will be something interesting for fans of the series.
