beatingstuff88 Thats exactly what I thought when I first got yakuza 4 and I had to fight him

beatingstuff88 Yakuza 4 was my first time playing the game and still my reaction to meeting Kiryu was "shit he's gonna kick my ass isn't he?"

The same man who punched his lieutenant so hard he went thru 3 phase

@ Man me too yakuza 4 was my first game i didn't know him but somehow he looked very strong to me even before fight then i play other yakuza series and find out why (Fuck indeed)

If there'd be a "Lose fight" Ending to that scene I would do it.

Love Train Yep, I agree :(

+Love Train And on top of that, that Yoneda piece of shit died so quickly, probably without feeling pain. I hate chickens like that who never fight fair and act big to others when the latters are in disadvantage.

What's the name of the sound in the beggining? Always wanted to find it, so peaceful.

Compared to some of the actions other people make in the games, this guy is a saint.

The Yakuza were doing the same. They were also after the Empty Lot.

stefan tassy and karaoke

Nugget that's all I have to say

Where's the karaoke,pocket racing and homoeroticism huh?

That’s almost every fucking game though

Kiryu’s “Yakuza in a sentence”: Yakuza is not a way of dying, it is a way of living

It looks like a fighting game when you select 2 characters.

@@TheChosenMoose01 reminds me of another similar dynamic intro which is the fight with Joon-gi Han in Stardust in Yakuza 6.

Mini Quách dude play kiwami 2

Kiryu vs Majima in Kiwami 2 is god tier

uskan ikr? it fantastically embodies Kiryu and Majma’s relationship: the madness, the bombasticness yet beautiful side and the hardcore, ice cold, demeanor side. They perfectly compliment each other.

@@mattngo1924 Exactly, and the smiles they give each other are unlike any other intro. Also Majima sliding under Kiryu's kick was badass

uskan i got goosebumps from that alone 😂

a good 20% is kuze alone

@@NonstopGam3r2250 what happend to kuze u don’t see him in kiwami at all did he quit or something

@@reborn1x he got arrested

I could have sworn he was in a cutscene in Kiwami or they were just 3 random characters that looked similar to the luitenants

@@reborn1x In Ryu Ga Gotoku Online there is a storyline where ichiban and kuze have to complete a mission after he is released from prison, but he fails the mission, but due to some other factor he is excused, but does not re-enter the yakuza, instead living on as a citizen.

ALSO IN ANIME!

They use one hand and both their shirt and coat comes off in 3 seconds

@@blankabs7056 the suit and the shirt are glued together

Are they made of paper?

All clothes should be made to come off with a yell and one hand

Don Vecta Definently one of the best characters in the whole series, even with only one game.

It must be the BEST intro. Damn KUZE! BADDAST EVER

Yeah the staredown is great.

I feel like by that points his tone toward kiryu has change from hate to respect

It gave me a "Yeah, I deserved that" vibe.

Nein

The vid is from 2015 both Kiwami parts werent released then

@Nguyễn Hải Dương you mean the kissing with ryuji's sister huh? :v

Ahh, i see you are a PC player as well

@@majinado9658 lmao why are u answering in German

I don't know anything about what's happened with Saejima and Majima because I'm only on Kiwami 2. Or i just finished watching a playthrough of it 6 days ago but damn could it be cool if Majima came to save his bro even if it was to beat up Kiryu-Chan.

@@MariusBoss11458 Lmao thats ironic

@@MariusBoss11458 Didn't play 0?

Oh I wish

Yep, and Tamashiro was one of the most blood boiling assholes I've seen in video games, it takes good writing to pull that off

Mine is the coolest of them for sure, but his motive was laughable. What part of "he will eventually wake up" does he not understand? 😂😂 Other than that, his character was great.

@@hisholiness4537 sure Daigo was going to wake up sooner or later but Mine didn't trust in Daigo if he was able to wake up from his comatose status. He thought by being the chairman could heal his broken heart for his husbando. Such a shame Mine died. . .

I feel like the reason they remade 1 and 2, and added a prequel wasn’t just to remake them, it was to make them more accessible to people coming into the series, and so they could reconstruct the plot of Kiryu and Majima’s path to the characters we know. You’ve got to remember, those came out just shortly after the series was getting basically no support in the west, it was a massive expensive blast into a market argument Ryu Ga Gotoku studios had basically no experience in, so I really doubt they’re going to remake any of the other titles. Closest we’ll probably ever get is more remasters. And I’m fine with that. The games are playable as is, and they don’t need remakes.

BADDASZT ENEMY IN ALL SERIES !! THAT INTRO IS LIKE "THIS IS YAKUZA"

The kids fight has everything good about a yakuza boss intro. The sequencing of other fights that have lead you to this fight. Good dialogue between the perfect idealist of the warrior vs Yakuza spirit. Kuze attacking and the title insert of his name "the demon". His theme kicks on or leitmotif and the song is great. Loved that scene.

Just got Yakuza 0 and had my first fight with Kuze. It was fun fighting someone I actually struggled against who didn't use a knife

Not as many times as I've seen the ending of Kiwami 2.

Every kuze fight is Very manly

13:30 Really wanted to murder that bastard, but at least I rearranged his face.

Dhaval Katbamn

Same here

Ikr 😍

God for real

I fucking love how your in the sewer and kuze just shows up out of nowhere on a bike, it’s so stupid I love it.

XellosDarkSlayer Except the fight against Tojo Clan in RGG5 has no Dynamic Opening. By Dynamic Opening, I mean the ones that link the cutscene with the gameplay, like the ones you see in this video.

devilleon7 Oh...well it's just another awesome fight then))) By the way,so what's your opinion about RGG Ishin? And,will you record Amon fight?

XellosDarkSlayer Ishin is okay, I give it a 7/10. I don't have the game anymore, so I won't be able to record anything else.

devilleon7 Oh,that's a shame.But at least you complete the game itself))) I wish i had PS4...

XellosDarkSlayer You'll have one some day!

I think it's a localization thing. Not stating it ain't weird because kiryu is his first name. But yeah Asian countries do family names first (last names) then individual names. So sometimes they change them around for subtitles so it makes sense for western audiences and you can probably see how that might confuse the english writers who are already desperately trying to find english phrases that equate with Japanese phrases. Hence why certain words said in Japanese get multiple different translations in the game. So aside for some weird translations like what you brought up I honestly gotta commend the english translators for localizing the game so western audiences can understand the weight of certain things being said while keeping true to the Japanese feel. Also never go full 4 kids! Who you trying to fool with that jelly filled nonsense! Even as a kid I knew that was a rice ball! Wait I'm Asian, damn I have the advantage of knowing rice. POINT STILL STANDS!

@@szabi925 huh, ya learn something new everyday.

@@madmalkavian3857 i am pretty sure kazuma is his first name

@@Ormerjere Nope it's Kiryu. That's why he introduces himself as Kazama Kiryu (Because in Japan family name goes first) and also everyone close to him calls him Kiryu which is a very Japanese thing to not call someone by their first name unless you're close, though the U.S. equivalent is probably referring to someone as Mr... or Mrs...

@@madmalkavian3857 you do know that the games are localised in a way that the subs say their first names first and last names last? It is just a dumb localisation thing. For example the voice actor says "Sawamura Haruka" and the subs say "Haruka Sawamura". Now tell me what is kiryus daughters first name?

actionguy123 I'm glad you enjoyed the video :D And yes, I love the cinematic quality of the series as well.

devilleon7 dont forget the top 10 long fights list in the future! I'm looking forward to it!

actionguy123 Top 10 Long Fights sounds amazing, thanks for the suggestion.

devilleon7 How about Top 10 Hypest Songs that will give you an Adrenaline Rush? Or something like that. Almost every final boss soundtrack are qualified for it. Mine is "Born to Be WILD" in Black Panther cuz it's the strongest song in the series. :D

Dan Hyang Keep the top 10 ideas coming :D

Volt46 I'm sorry xD But it's great to meet another Phoenix Wright fan :D

For another meta awesome, Tanimura's VA plays Phoenix Wright in the live action movie so Tanimura is Phoenix Wright that can kick ass.

Volt46 Wait, holy shit, Tanimura's VA is the same guy that did Phoenix Wright in his movie?!

Yep yep yep

Volt46 That could explain why he was absent from Yakuza 5.. Maybe xD

That game is just one massive acid trip and I love it

Nishiki, awano, someya

Ryuji?

+C AR btw, i watched all this... just excellent

C AR I'm glad you liked it :D I agree, Majima looks AMAZING before the fights, especially with that tattoo!

my poor english... just the posture right before he starts every fight. XD

C AR Haha, it's alright :P

jimmyqballs I agree about the intros to big fights being amazing! It's something that makes this series quite unique. As for the translations, please thank Miera Miujin , he/she did all of the work.

deniz arik he aknowledges that Kuze was a man of Honor who stood for his words and admires him as a senpai. It shows in his clothing style later on as you correctly recognized

You're doing the right thing, my friend. More testosterone, coming right up.

YOU WON’T LAST *5 MINUTES* PLAYING *THIS* GAME

YOU WON’T LAST *5 MINUTES* PLAYING *THIS* GAME

Lol yea watching cut scenes in these games can turn you on real quick.

Hikkomori-Frog TM best comment right fucking there

[mad?]

Hypest title card to date along with shibusawa's and kuze's (sewer). And that music buildup is fucking insane.

and how half the vid is yakuza 0 XD

I believe it's Yakuza tradition. If you noticed, some of the fights don't have you and you enemy remove tops and battle 1v1, like Jingu's boss fight in Kiwami.

@@TheChosenMoose01 I see

@@e-shockwaave7418 I could be wrong, but think about it. In Yakuza 0, you don't take off your jacket throughout most of the bosses but towards the ending bosses, you remove the jacket and shirt

@@TheChosenMoose01 Kiryu definitely didn't like most of the guys he fought in his young age. They were usually really bad people.

@@e-shockwaave7418 But he respected them.

LarsJunFan Oleg Troitskii Yep, I love Number one, it's filled with emotions and feelings which makes the fight and the music even more epic than they originally are. That intro was something really really amazing at the time, something that blew my mind from how manly and awesome it was xD Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the video :D

Last Wrath My thoughts exactly.

***** It really makes no fucking sense. There is a Japanese guy with an entire playthrough of 0, it has vital cutscenes, like *SPOILERS FROM ZERO* the scene where Awano dies (I included this scene in No.2 by the way, but it HAD to be removed from this video, otherwise my video would get blocked), so I really find that to be huge bullshit. I am interested in hearing how people would list these 10 instead. So if you want, do tell me :D Back in the day, I used to love 9 and 8 to death, they were like THE most epic moments for me in the entire Yakuza series. But you know, as more games release, there will be new favorites. I personally really love 10 as well, it could've been higher.. oh well, no problem xD

devilleon7 But then the LP of Zero I watched had to speed up the cutscenes because they'd be caught by KZfaq's content matcher bot and blocked otherwise. Do you even know what you're doing, Sega? Either block them all or don't block anything. Stop being wishy-washy. Sheesh. I rank 10, 9 and 8 higher because they have good lengths and star a bunch of my favorite characters (except Tanimura. GTFO you. I do like Tanimura vs Sugiuchi a lot though). Your 5 and 7 might be too short for me to consider, but maybe if I considered them in context I'd accept them. I dunno. Also, a thought occurs to me in this video. Akiyama seems to know a lot about Kiryu, calling him the king of the concrete jungle that is Kamurocho and all, but isn't it odd that he doesn't know what he looks like? Even if he hadn't seen him in person I'd think he'd at least have heard a description of his gray suit or something.

***** The weird thing is, the LP I saw did not speed up the cutscenes at all, they were running on normal speed! As for 7, I don't have Yakuza 5 with me, it's with my best friend, otherwise i'd have gone and recorded more of the cutscene, instead, i took the footage from my video against Majima. And for 5, I didn't really see it necessary to make it any longer xD You have a point. Akiyama should've lived in Kamurocho long enough to have at least heard rumors about how Kiryu looks like, yet he didn't recognize him at all.

legend LGD الله يبارك فيك, تسلم :D

Akiyama VS Arai was blocked, despite uploading the English version :p

And their "claws" at 21:13 look just like their two mystical beings counterpart, a Dragon and a Kirin ready to claw each other eyes out :D

Dan Hyang Wow, I never even paid attention to their hands or thought of them as claws.. xD

devilleon7 And at that exact moment where their feets aren't on the ground. *"Fly" started playing. Too perfect :D P/S: The final battle with Shibusawa had that too but unlike Y3 where Kiryu already matured as a Dragon. In that scene, you could see Kiryu's hands slowly turning into a "claw", signifying his destiny as the Dragon of Dojima after that match.
