Fans react hilariously to a Tekken player waltzing into a tournament with his dog

In the clip that is now doing the rounds on social media, we see Kintaro strapped to the player's back, seemingly unfazed by the chaos around him. This caught the attention of netizens, who were delighted to see such a rare occurrence in the hustle and bustle of a competitive gaming environment.

The fact that the dog wasn't just a showcase but accompanied Jet to the arena as a coach adds to the hilarity of the situation. What was he expected to do, bark strategies in the midst of the match? Fans had a field day reacting to the event as the internet community lost its collective mind:

"He got that dawg in him", joked one user (via X / @bebopcore)

"I’m guessing the dog knows frame data as well", wondered another (via X / @WhosM1GUEL)

"That dogs just like "I guess I'm up here today", quipped another user (via X / @MarshallArts316)

We can only imagine what must have been going through Kintaro's mind as he saw the crowd go bonkers for him. He became an overnight sensation as fans debated the reasons for his presence at the arena. Some suggested that he was there for moral support, while others hilariously claimed he came as a backup in case Jet got tired midway through the match.

Can you imagine Kintaro taking on the heavyweights of the gaming industry while being strapped to a human's back? The memes alone would feed generations to come. Amid the euphoria, one fan (@mrshelby101) pointed out the ultimate ignominy:

"Imagine losing to someone mid-set and he turns around and high-fives his dog. I’d uninstall the game, file a lawsuit, and enter witness protection"

The meme factory was in full swing as fans began crafting hilarious content around the spectacle. Some fans even demanded that Kintaro be added to the Tekken franchise at the earliest. If their demands were not met, they were willing to settle for this instead:

"We need more dog coaches!", exclaimed one fan (via X / @DontRunlmAsian)

Another fan hilariously claimed that it was all just a pretense and that the public appearance was actually a desperate plea from the Tekken player to save him from the claws of his dog. This had the whole internet in stitches:

"Little do they know, this was a Ratatouille situation where the dog is controlling the man", jested the fan (via X / @mas8705)

What began as a questionable life choice became possibly the greatest Tekken meme ever, as Kintaro didn’t just turn heads—he turned the Tekken scene into a meme-fest. Only time will tell if Kintaro will inspire more captivating moments like these or if Bandai Namco will add him to the Tekken roster first. Let's see who blinks first!
