Julia Chang (ジュリア・チャン Juria Chan?) is a video game character in the Tekken series. She is the adopted daughter of Michelle Chang, who taught her how to fight, which is why they share the same fighting style. Julia first appeared in Tekken 3, and since then has appeared in all subsequent release, as well as appearing as her alter-ego, a Luchadora named Jaycee (ジェイシー Jeishī?), in Tekken Tag Tournament 2. Julia has replaced Michelle in the Tekken series, with her character taking the latter's moveset. Julia hopes to one day reforest Arizona, which is where the Chang Family live.
Biography
Julia's life got off to an inauspicious start; born to unknown parentage, she was abandoned as a baby in the ruins of a Native American settlement. Her fortunes changed, however, when she was found by Michelle Chang, a young woman from a native tribe who adopted her and raised her as her own. Julia grew up with a strong love for her adoptive mother and tribe, and was taught to fight so that she could protect her homeland. Julia also developed a fascination for her tribes heritage, and began studying archaeology to learn more about her forefathers.
As Julia neared her eighteenth birthday, stories started to reach the tribe of martial artists disappearing around the globe. Fearing that tribal tales of the God of Fighting were coming true and that her pendant was somehow connected, Michelle headed to Japan to find Heihachi Mishima and ask him what he knew about the pendant and why he had sought it previously. When she did not return, Julia suspected foul play from Heihachi and entered the third King of Iron Fist Tournament to rescue her mother. As the tournament reached its finale, Julia successfully rescued Michelle and learned that Heihachi had used Michelle's pendant to fully awaken Ogre, the God of Fighting in an ancient Aztec temple. Julia initially wanted revenge against Heihachi, but Michelle persuaded her to return home peacefully.
After the events of the third tournament, Julia's priorities changed; upon learning that the encroaching desert would soon consume her homeland, she began researching ways to restore the global ecosystem. This led her to join a team of researchers led by Professor T at the G Corporation headquarters, where the project, named GENOCELL, progressed well. Unfortunately for Julia, the laboratories were attacked by the Mishima Zaibatsu and her research was stolen, prompting her to enter the fourth King of Iron Fist tournament in an attempt to retrieve the data. While she was unsuccessful, she did catch the attention of Ganryu, a Sumo wrestler who fell in love with her due to her resemblance to her mother Michelle, whom Ganryu had fallen in love with twenty years previously, during the second King of Iron Fist tournament. This led him to join Julia in the fifth King of Iron Fist tournament, in the hopes of recovering the data and winning her heart. While Ganryu succeeds in finding the data, Julia remained dismissive of his affection.
With the forest rejuvenation data back in her possession, Julia returns home to realize her dreams of reforesting her homeland. Her plans take a back seat, however, when she learned of a greater threat to humanity: if Kazuya Mishima and Jin Kazama, who both carried the Devil Gene, were allowed to clash, a great evil would be resurrected and unleashed upon the world. Sensing the danger to mankind, Julia entered the sixth King of Iron Fist tournament to help prevent the meeting that threatened the world.
She later became a video blogger and created content regarding the seventh tournament, though it is unclear whether she officially entered or not.
Personality
Julia is a very kind woman with a strong love for her adoptive mother, Michelle, as well as her tribe and homeland. Julia is very brave in the face of danger, and will stand her ground and fight for the side of good in order to protect the people and things she cares about. Julia is also intelligent, as her passion for her homeland led her to study archaeology, and her time spent researching forest rejuvenation taught her a great deal about natural sciences and information technology.
In Tekken 7, as an internet celebrity (she dons a tablet computer in one of her intros and references her stream going live as well as when the stream ends), Julia's personality has become a bit bubblier and perkier. She is somewhat more hyperactive and boisterous than in previous Tekken installments, though this may also be a false personality she gives herself for her streams, similar to her personality when undertaking the role of "Jaycee".
Appearance
Julia has brown eyes and long brown hair (though it is shorter in Tekken 3 and Tekken 7), braided down the back and typically fastened with colorful hairbands while styled into bangs to each side of her face. Being of Native American descent, much of the jewelry and accessories worn by Julia are of traditional Native American design or contain patterning in keeping with her heritage, and she can often be seen wearing a headdress with feathers tucked into the side.

Story
Tekken 3
Official Strategy Guide
Searching for Michelle... Julia studies archaeology in Michelle Chang's tribal lands. As a baby, Julia was deserted in the ruins of ancient Native American settlement, where Michelle found her. Michelle rescued Julia and brought her up with love. Julia loved Michelle and her adopted tribe and trained with Michelle to protect her beloved homeland.
When Julia was 18, stories of sudden disappearances of famous martial artists all over the world began to reach the tribe. The tribe knew the cause, which was contained in the tribal legends... the legend of Ancient Ogre. People in the tribe feared that Michelle's pendant, the key to a Native American secret treasure, had something to do with the disappearances.
With apprehension spreading through the tribe, Michelle left for Japan to ask Heihachi Mishima why he had sought to take the pendant during the second tournament. Michelle hoped to learn about the origin of Ogre's power, but she never returned. Julia suspected Heihachi and now seeks him out to discover the truth.[2]

Julia rushes to her mother's aid, after which Michelle explains that the key to controlling Ogre is her pendant, and that awakening him was Heihachi's evil plan. Julia swears revenge on Heihachi, but Michelle reminds her that hatred is not the answer, and that she taught Julia to fight "to protect Mother Earth, not to destroy it". After this, Michelle and Julia return home to Arizona.
Tekken 4
Julia was a college student studying archaeology. One day, she discovered that her native homeland was in danger of being covered by an encroaching desert; this was brought on by today's rapidly changing global ecosystem. Julia wanted to save her home, and she began her research on ecosystem restoration.
Julia joined an advanced genetic research group led by Professor T that studied the biological mechanism of reforestation. Professor T's research grant came almost exclusively from G Corporation. In fact, G Corporation's supercomputers, located at their high security research center, were being used for the research, and all of the research data was stored on their file servers.
Julia was absorbed in her daily research, waiting for the day when her research on ecosystem restoration would be complete. When the research was completed, she would save her home.
One day, Julia learned from Professor T that their project was on hold indefinitely. The Mishima Zaibatsu attacked G Corporation's high security research center and stole all their project data. Julia didn't know a thing about G Corporation's secret research projects nor did she care about them. Yet she knew that she had to retrieve her data from the Mishima Zaibatsu in order to save her home from becoming a desert in a few years time.
Julia searched the net to gather information regarding the Mishima Zaibatsu. Her eyes lit up when she saw a web page announcing The King of Iron Fist Tournament 4.[citation needed]

Tekken: Bloodline
Julia appears in Tekken: Bloodline as one of the competitors invited to the tournament. Her family are mentioned when Heihachi successfully acquires the Chang Family Pendant, which is able to detect Ogre's presence. Julia fights and defeats Marshall Law off-screen, but is later defeated by Paul Phoenix. After her defeat, she makes an attempt to attack Heihachi to retrieve her mother's stolen pendant, but she is effortlessly defeated.
Jin steps in before a finishing blow can be made, causing Heihachi to spare her and leave. Initially, Julia refuses to accept Jin's help as he is Heihachi's grandson, but she is surprised at his own knowledge of Ogre. When she learns that Jin's mother has been killed by Ogre, she reveals that Heihachi likely released the creature out into the world for his own gains. She also informs Jin that his next opponent, King II, was originally an orphan in the care of the original King, who was also killed by Ogre. Jin promises to return the pendant to her after the tournament and succeeds in doing this after he defeats Heihachi.
Gameplay
As Julia was taught to fight by her adoptive mother, her fighting style is almost identical to Michelle's. Julia's moveset is made up of ranged kicks and fast strikes, many of which can be linked into other attacks, allowing multiple variations of similar moves. While Julia is weaker than the average character, this unpredictability combined with her speed can make her an effective character in the hands of a skilled player.
Julia has a wide range of attacks that cover all height ranges, and as many of her attacks are fast and able to be chained into other attacks, it is possible to deal large amounts of damage through juggles and combos. Julia's range of attacks also make her a good character to force errors from opponents, and her versatile moveset can be beneficial in breaking the guard of more defensive opponents.
While it takes time to learn her more complex attack patterns, it is worth persevering as her agility and fast attacks allow her to evade opponents attacks while keeping them at bay and wearing them down with ranged strikes, making her a good character for players with a more technical playing style.
In Tekken 7, Julia maintains her moves but gaining new moves to her arsenal. She also utilizes the move similar to the Windmill Kick. Her Rage Art is similar to Leo Kliesen's Rage Art but in a different movement; Julia happily strikes her pose and lands a heavy blow to stun her opponents then hitting them with two punches as the last blow sending her opponent in a little distance with a heavy elbow in a different position after she salutes.
Fighting Style
Julia's fighting style is a mixture of various Chinese martial arts, such as Xin Yi Liu He Quan and Baji Quan, among others. She also uses various wrestling maneuvers, such as suplexes and a Death Valley Driver (named Death Valley Bomb in the games). These together appear to form a unique martial art style known in game as Chang Kenpo.

Trivia
General:
- It is possible that part of Julia's Tekken 5 ending may be canonical, since in the PSP prologue to Tekken 6, it is stated that she has successfully reforested parts of Arizona, and it is mentioned in Ganryu's story that he had recovered the data for her. These forests are seen in her Tekken 6 ending. Her Tekken 7 profile says she needs funds to continue her reforestation project, though it is not clear at what stage of success the project is at.

- Julia's item move has her plant a sapling. Her second item move causes her Cross Arm Suplex to bury the opponent's torso into the ground if it K.O.s them.
- There is a glitch that is possible to replicate with this item move: in Practice Mode, the game can register the dummy opponent as on the verge of K.O. when a small amount of health is remaining (such as when Yoshimitsu uses his Harakiri move). This will cause the opponent to be buried in the ground as though K.O.'d by the item move until Julia performs a move that frees them.[18]
- Julia was announced at Tekken World Tour Finals 2018 at December 2, 2018. She was released alongside the guest character Negan on February 28th, 2019.
- Like Anna and Marduk, Julia's old and new quotes are now redubbed by her current voice actress, Stephanie Sheh as her normal voice became in a child-like pitch while her battle grunts performed by Annie Wood were retained who had a more normal pitch.

- Her Rage Art is similar to Leo's but in different movement as they share the last blow to make a heavy elbow on their opponent despite their elbowing are in a different position.
- Julia has one new pre-fight and two new win animations in the game. Her pre-fight animation resembles her adoptive mother Michelle's one in her recent appearance in Tekken Tag Tournament 2, while her first win animation has her tell the players to subscribe to her after performing a few of her fighting moves, which references the subscribing of content creators to follow them in various social media.
