Anna Williams is a fictional character featured in the Tekken fighting game series. Anna has a memorable sibling rivalry and a somewhat love-hate relationship with her older sister, Nina, which spawned from the death of their father, Richard Williams.
History
Tekken 1
Anna features in Nina's arcade mode ending, in which she accuses Nina of stealing one of her shoes (See Nina's Tekken ending). Whether at Kazuya's discretion or Anna's own volition, Anna became a bodyguard for Kazuya, along with Ganryu and Bruce Irvin, who were all charged with Kazuya's protection. It is likely that Anna's intervention prevented her sister from carrying out her contract, and Nina was later captured by Mishima Zaibatsu forces and used in Doctor Boskonovitch's cryogenics 'cold-sleep' research. Her reasons for doing so remain ambiguous, though the suggestion that Anna would have felt lonely without Nina and/or jealous at the thought of her sister's youth being preserved are both likely.
Tekken 4
In Tekken 4, Anna is mysteriously and inexplicably absent, though she is mentioned in Nina's Tekken 4 prologue and returns in Tekken 5.
Tekken 5
Nina decides to make contact with Anna in hopes of restoring her memory.
Tekken: The Animated Movie
In the animated movie, Nina and Anna are Lee Chaolan's "girlfriends". Although Anna proclaims to Nina that Lee was using her, he was actually playing them both, not even caring that his test subjects would kill them both when he released them. Nina also pronounces her name "Aun-Na", suggesting that her name would not be pronounced like the North American "Anna" (though it should be noted that the animated movie was notorious for mispronouncing character names). The animated movie also states that it was Anna who killed her own father, Richard Williams, because she grew mad with bitterness over him always treating Nina better than her;
Death by Degrees
In the Tekken spin-off game, Death By Degrees, Anna is a member of the Tekken Force, the Mishima Zaibatsu's military wing, whilst Nina, the player's character, is working as part of a joint operation between the CIA and MI6. Once the game is completed, Anna becomes a playable character in her own mini-game, "Anna Mode."
