I like how Nishikis heat aura in this game is more of a mix of white and blue,showing good,but in kiwami his heat aura is a black a blue storm,showing how he's fallen.
It's actually kind of heartbreaking that Nishiki and Majima fight. Honestly, I think Nishiki could have really benefited having Majima as a friend seeing as there's so many parallels between the two of them and their sworn brothers, especially Nishiki after Kiryu goes to prison.
Well they fight here for a good reason, and afterwards, don't hate each other. Nishki assumed Majima was going to kill Makoto and Kiryu, but afterward, they worked together.
@@mohammedadrihafizi2787 Nah Nishki was trying to defend his brother. The song that plays is normally called 'For Sake' but this instance is called 'For Buddy'.
This was my first Yakuza game and had no knowledge of the others, I remember Nishiki being so valiant in protecting his friend and Reina sticking by him so well that I was quite torn up when fighting this battle. I think that is a testament to the game's narrative quality in that this was able to work so well for new and experienced players in different ways.
@Florida Man I mean there nothing really else he can do since when nishiki does that move he counters any punch you throw at him, in which why’d he taunted, taunting give you heat meter which is helpful for heat actions and staying fast in general. If it is the other way around then ya pretty cringe
I began this fight, went "aw yeah, this'll be easy! Its just Kiryu's baby brother." Then he floored me 2 seconds in and Reina hit me with a bottle for a trophy.
this fight was dead easy. played on hard(first playthrough), and beaten nishiki's ass in just a few min. by the time the qte started and passed, nishiki was already 1 hit away from being KO
This fight is easy as long as u can dodge him, he doesn’t have good stun resistance. Kuze is way harder, since he can break your combo easily and stunlock you
@@Isiauwuehrifi Only you actually respect Kuze as a threat most of the time. Vs Nishiki I was expecting somewhat of a joke battle, where he's basically just a thug with high health.
The only competent friendly video game AI I can think of are the RWS staff from Postal 2 and even then they can’t handle a bunch of enemies without help from the player.
3:16 - Ha! When I was playing Yakuza Kiwami, I reached this exact same milestone towards the 100 km traveled on foot mark while I was fighting Majima on the street.
1985 Shimano Family was a Dojima branch, so technically Majima is NishiKiryu aniki. Yakuza 4 Majima says he’s Dojima Family when he talks to Shibata(while Saejima is killing Ueni Seiwa Clan)
I dont think nishiki and kiryu were yakuza during the ueno seiwa. 1988 is when they joined and by then shimano split from dojima after the jingweon massacre.
I felt really bad while beating up Nishiki as Majima. And yes, I know what he becomes after this game (I've played the series since the original on PS2). It just didn't feel right to wreck him at this point of the story, especially after what had just happened with Tachibana and the Kazama clan. Likewise, I did NOT enjoy beating the shit out of Kashiwagi. HELL NO. That one really felt bad if you've played the other games (especially Y3).
I got so emotionally attached to Nishiki to the point that I legit teared up during this fight because I felt so bad for harming him. Fun fight regardless, but I will always remember that feeling for Nishiki at this point of the story.
@@auhs6240 Hey man, Nishiki did better against Majima than many bosses. To be fair, for someone his age and experience, who isn't Kiryu, he was pretty impressive. Kashiwagi though...
Is it just me or do the facial animations in Yakuza 0 outclass even those in Kiwami 2 and 6? They seem so alive in 0, it puts all others to shame I think.
If you succeed at the QTE when Reina passes Nishiki the bottle of medicine, Majima will smack him out of the way, catch it himself, and drink it in front of him. Best QTE in the game, had me laughing my ass off.
when i was playing yakuza 0, (spoilers) i honestly thought nishki, reina, and yumi to last through basically the entire yakuza series, but they all died in kiwani 1.
I’m convinced that it was intended to be a Nishiki/Majima game, but the Nishiki part of it is portrayed through the eyes of Kiryu, so you the player develop the bond with Nishiki vicariously Which is why when you play Kiwami after, it hurts so much more finishing this, cause you see why Kiryu held him so high in regard and how much he means to him
The other day I finished again this game, pure fun and all, but I was surprised of how easy is to fight Nishiki with the breaker style, he couldn't even stand up lol
They are fighting about who gets to be Kiryu's best friend, lol. The Reina part is my favorite, I love Majima's reponse and the way he looks at her like "that was cute"! 2:10
Zzzolapa maybe it's supposed to be prediction attack? Enemies can't block from behind in a lot of cases, so an attempt at stopping that. Though it doesnt seem to be helping.
I love how if you succeed the QTEs Majima low key flirts with/teases Reina throughout the fight, like "Aww, you have friends, Nishikiyama! And she's trying _so_ hard, you go, nee-chan."
iirc majima was even more stronger when he had both eyes. In yakuza 4 saejima who is kiryus equal mentioned something that how he used to be stronger before 0.
You let Nishiki heal himself.

Bad news everyone, the voice actress of Reina in this game, Hiromi Tsuru, had passed away :(. May her soul rest in peace. RIP Hiromi Tsuru.
Irsyadi Aryadiva SHE VOICED REINA?????????? HIROMI DIID? HOLY.SHIT... Kinda diff from her sound as Bulma tho..
@bastiisalive According to her wikipedia and behind the voice actor page, yeah she did.
naomi hunter, julia chang and eliza masters from sf2
So that's why she didn't appear in Kiwami
Rip and whats worse, she dies in kiwami cuz of nishki
"I'd die before I sold out my sworn brother"
Haha...Hahahaha

Kinda ironic, betrayal in the end.
Technically Nishiki never sold out Kiryu
Nishiki never really betrayed Kiryu, though.
Lmaooooo
In this and the Kashiwagi fight you can _feel_ how done Majima is with this running around and shit.

RGGlover because then it would be too easy so they nerf him down
The AI for partners is reduced down to mook level cuz it would be too easy if they had boss AI

I think that Reina Hitting majima in the head was canon
If only this was the only time we had to fight Nishiki.
Just now I realized Nishiki's theme in 0 is indeed a remix of his in Kiwami

maybe it's supposed to be prediction attack?
Enemies can't block from behind in a lot of cases, so an attempt at stopping that. Though it doesnt seem to be helping.
Its a spinning kick that's being aimed at Majima's head. However, nishiki keeps missing due to majima circling around him.
He's just fighting ghosts
Nishiki has the ability to use a kick from behind him self, and i think the games code thought Majima was behind Nishiki, Making The Attack Activate.
He want to hit the cameraman 😂🤣
Well, he can throw a wicked haymaker.
Somenone knows the music from the beginning to 0:32?? I heard in other bars like Bachus, Serena and bantan. But I don't know the name.
