Harada compared Kazuya to a yakuza, while artist Takayuki Yamaguchi based the character's Tekken 6 costume on a robot. Kazuya's family name was taken from author Yukio Mishima, who was also used a model for the character's physical appearance.

Kazuya's design and characterization was influenced by a variety of sources.

The franchise's design team referred to Kazuya and Nina Williams as 'the soul the cool part' of the original 1994 game. Tekken producer Katsuhiro Harada created Kazuya Mishima as a corrupted character with a 'pure dark side' as opposed to his father Heihachi Mishima, who Harada identified as having a more 'human dark side'. Kazuya Mishima was modeled after author Yukio Mishima ( pictured). In contrast, critical reception of Kazuya Mishima's portrayal in films has been mixed, with critics finding him generic. Journalists have praised Kazuya Mishima's moves and dark characterization, which rivals that of his father. A number of websites have listed him as one of the best Tekken characters and one of the best characters in fighting games. Kazuya Mishima has been positively received by critics. In addition to appearances in spin-offs in the Tekken series, Kazuya also appears as a playable character in Namco Г— Capcom, Project X Zone 2, Ace Combat: Assault Horizon, Street Fighter X Tekken, The King of Fighters All Star and Super Smash Bros. Several voice actors have portrayed Kazuya Mishima in video games and films related to Tekken. Kazuya Mishima's devil form was created to bring unrealistic fighters into the series, but the incarnation has made few appearances. A number of staff members have considered him one of the franchise's strongest characters, which has led to debates about reducing the damage of some of his moves or removing together. The character was based on writer Yukio Mishima, with whom he shares a last name.
