It is merely an aesthetic effect, although most of these attacks activate [[Special Zoom]]. [[Kirby]] can also take the appearance of Devil when using [[Devil Blaster]] after copying Kazuya. | ||

It is theorized that the demon Azazel is connected to the Devil Gene in some way. Many have claimed that both Azazel and the gene share a source of power, implying that Azazel gave the gene to the first carriers when he ruled the earth thousands of years ago. | It is theorized that the demon Azazel is connected to the Devil Gene in some way.

There are three confirmed carriers of the Devil Gene. The first is Kazumi, [[Heihachi]]'s wife and [[Kazuya]]'s mother. Her maiden bloodline, the Hachijō family, has possessed the gene since ancient times and passed down the gene through the generations. This implies her family also has a connection to Azazel. She ends up using her powers to fight and kill Heihachi, as she feared he had become too powerful and became a threat to the world.

She ends up using her powers to fight and kill Heihachi, as she feared he had become too powerful and became a threat to the world. Heihachi ended up killing her out of self defense and to rid the world of the demon he thought was the love of his life. | ||
The second carrier is Kazuya. After he witnessed his mother killed by his father at age 5, he challenges Heihachi to a fight out of vengeance. He is quickly defeated and thrown off a cliff by Heihachi, to both test if Kazuya truly has the gene and if he could be a worthy successor to the Mishima Zaibatsu. The gene is the only reason Kazuya survived the fall, and he would spend the next several decades training and mastering his devil powers out of revenge. He loses half of his devil at the end of ''Tekken 2'', when Heihachi throws him into a volcano. This saga reaches a climax in ''Tekken 4'', where he overpowers the devil within him and takes control of his powers, and he is then able to freely turn his powers on and off at will. During the climax of ''Tekken 7'', he is shown to possess an even stronger version of his devil form, distinct from the usual one he uses that also appears earlier in the story. | The second carrier is Kazuya.

The third carrier is Jin Kazama, son of Kazuya and Jun Kazama. The other half of the devil that Kazuya lost ended up trying to insert itself into the unborn Jin, but Jun managed to ward it off temporarily. However, the devil finally managed to merge with Jin 15 years later. Both halves of the devil attempt to assimilate each other during ''Tekken 4'', but are unsuccessful. Devil speculates that the Kazama blood within Jin is preventing the merger. Jin eventually activated the gene and seemingly is able to turn it on and off at will like his father. | The third carrier is Jin Kazama, son of Kazuya and Jun Kazama.

He then had another son with an unidentified Swedish woman, named Lars Alexandersson, as a test subject. When Lars did not have the gene, he abandoned him and his mother, and he could not recognize Lars as his son when meeting him again during the events of ''Tekken 6''. | ||
