Jin Kazama (Japanese: 風間 仁, Hepburn: Kazama Jin^?) is a fictional character and main protagonist of the Tekken series (Tekken 3 and onward) released by Namco Bandai Games. Jin is consistently voiced by Isshin Chiba since he debuted in Tekken 3, making him the only Tekken character to be consistently voiced by one actor in every appearance.

Trained by his grandfather, Heihachi Mishima, in order to enter the King of Iron Fist Tournament, Jin wishes to avenge the apparent death of his mother Jun Kazama. However, during the tournament it is revealed that Jin possesses the Devil Gene (Japanese: デビルの血, Hepburn: Debiru no Chi (Lit. 'Devil's blood')^?), a genetic abnormality within his body, which causes the betrayal of Heihachi who wants to take it. He is also antagonized by his father, Kazuya Mishima, from whom he inherited the gene. While dealing with them, Jin loses control of the Devil Gene, which causes his transformation into an alter ego named Devil Jin (Japanese: デビル仁, Hepburn: Debiru Jin^?), first introduced as a non-playable character in Tekken 3 and playable in Tekken 5. He is also a high school friend of Ling Xiaoyu.
