I like how the party talks about brass knuckles being "a little overkill" immediately after Ichiban uses a goddamn satellite laser.
joon gi han:
The brass knuckles are real, the laser is just Ichiban's imagination. None of them are actually using weapons.
@@Mr.Sax. 🤓
@@Mr.Sax.Laser’s real, actually. Amon’s got one too.
The best part is the brass knuckles don't even increase his damage...
imagine being "overleveled" for a fight
but then Tendo said "God's Right Hand"
Yup. I'd have been 1-shot out of fucking nowhere if it wasn't for Peerless Resolve.
Imagine being lvl 99 only for Tendo to one shot Ichiban and give you a game over
I had this happen to me a few minutes ago... Worst part is, I knew what was coming, but Ichiban's turn didn't come up in time for me to use Peerless Resolve.
Tendo used God's Right Hand twice. Once on Han and once on Ichiban... guess which party member dodged it and which one didn't?
I was level 80+ and handling the fight rather well up to that point, no less!
@@chronosthesniper795 I think if you perfect guard it you survive.
@@LowIntSpecimen Tried that. Sadly, there's no solving the problem of my timing being shit. You'd never guess I survived the True Final Millennium Tower!
16:45 "Joon-Gi Han shot with precision!" *misses*
Ultimate bruh moment
I'm still wondering why they made a regular civilian become somebody who was dead since 6
@@demochris1786 what?
@@zjmstrash7181 joon-gi han the person that look like the Korean Virgil from Yakuza 6 but it's not the actual person, it turns out joon-gi Han had facial reconstruction.
@@demochris1786 i get that but joon-gi-hans body double isn't a normal civvie
Tendo : *(Ready* *up* *the* *God's* *Warning)*
Kasuga without his Peerless Resolve : *Why* *are* *we* *still* *here,* *just* *to* *suffer?*
That's why I had a sacrifice stone on Kasuga in advance as a backup plan.
I beat him without it got lucky he never aimed at Ichi
It deals damage based on the damage he took i think
Didn't beat this fight on legend, but he only used this attack once, it whiffed on Joon-gi han and he didn't use it ever again after that 😂
Just noticed that Tendo's dragon tattoo is a reference to blue dragon that appears at the end of first Dragon Quest game as a final boss.
Yakuza Like a Dragon is literally a loveletter to Dragon Quest.
To be fair. That's the whole point. Kasuga's favorite video game is Dragon Quest. That's why all the battles are in the RPG style and all the job classes
I like the little parallel they did with Kasuga and Tendo at the end where Kasuga and Tendo run at each other and freeze at the frame where KIwami's dynamic intro ends like the dragon and koi switched places or maybe I am overthinking things
No you're not. The Koi just wins this time. Nishiki and Ichiban even have the same voice actor.
@@johanngaiusisinwingazuluah2116 ichiban is the koi who became a dragon by the end of yakuza 7

😂
Imagine tendo had a infinite gauntlet
Majima will be like: "Kiryu-chan, i dont feel so good"
LMAO
When youre overlevelled with the best gear and peerless resolve but tendo focuses Kasuga twice in a row with God's right hand.
Yeah, it's more luck based UNLESS you can find a way to enrage Tendo, which can get his focus off of ichiban, but it won't last. And having Peerless resolve is a must.
Out of boredom I used a hack to make every hit deal 9999 damage (1 hit kill), used it on Tendo and it only drained a little bit of his health, dude is a literal tank
@@KR1T1KALZ Even with hacks my man literally said "Fuck that" and just defies death.
Peerless resolve is a MUST for this fight, and if you can't seem to get it in for him in time, best to have a Sacrifice stone equipped on him in advance, because it's a huge help against Tendo's God Warning.
I swear when I used a Sacrifice Stone Tendo didn't even one shot Kasuga, everytime I equipped a Sacrifice Stone in a boss fight my luck increased by alot because I kept winning first try everytime I put it on
@@RealSuperMario64 I beat the fight first time myself.
@@jordantolkar2586 took me 3 tries because I didn't realize he could one shot Kasuga no matter what
@@RealSuperMario64 Twice personally. 🤝
Weird I got through it without ever using it
Tedo after being hit by an orbital laser: let's make this interesting
still mad you cant play as shirtless ichi in premium adventure ):
his tattoo is so sick
Use "Peerless Resolve" right when his aura is purple. Other than that, good luck!
I'll fix it for you
Use peerless resolve
@@auhs6240 there's no need for adjustments on my comments
@@Natesmb164 I mean, like, there no harm just using it at the beginning instead of risking letting him get the move off before Ichi can act
I beat him 3 times without using that method
Or have the curse substitute
Han Joon Gi is such an important element in this fight due to his agility and the number of turns he gets every round. Without him tendo would get as many as 3 attacks in one turn back to back.
Bro I used poison shot and thank God it worked cause it carried me through out the fight
@@bomberman9296Poison Shot + Fatal Rush combo is really helpful in this fight. Spamming Malodorous Breath from Nanba also helps to make the fight go faster
Seconding Joon Gi so much! I had Ichiban, Joon Gi, Eri (she was on Idol but I also lvled Matriarch + Hostess on her to get the gun attack and the ice attack), and Nanba.
I had three of those green stones (the one to prevent insta KO) for Joon Gi and Eri, but only Joon Gi's broke bcs he got the one shot attack. I gave Nanba the curse substitute accessory that prevents u from 1 shot attacks.
Malodorous Stench from Nanba and Joon Gi's Poison Kick helps a lot!
For me, this is one of my favorite fights in the franchise. Even though Tendo is hits like a truck and has a health bar the size of Texas, its a really fun boss. The music, the way the game forces you to fight strategically and carefully, his moves being op but predictable enough to block, its a very fair and fun challenge. I was even standing up this entire fight, that's how invested I was in this battle. THIS is how you do a JRPG boss. Challenging, fair, and most important: fun
Ehh... i dunno man. Legit, theres no real part of this that is "fair". Once he hits his second phase, it really is just "if he targets ichiban with it, andyou'venot leveled hero to get peerless resolve, you lose." Its just a straight one shot from what i understand, so i really wouldn't call that fair or fun. If he hits anyone else, then its just "welp revive them". I think this boss is just bad tbh, one shot mechanics in an RPG where your lead party member dies and you lose? Its a bad design.
@@MasterSwordMaster15 how did you get to tendo without peerless resolve? I think I got it around the majime bossfight or atleast before kiryu’s.
@@mrziggyzaggy113 I had it, but i almost didn't. I only got it because i was warned to, but i had been leveling other classes and things. Regardless, it shows that you absoultely NEED this skill to beat the game, because the final boss does just have a "you are dead" move.
@@MasterSwordMaster15 yeah it’s annoying when the game says in the tutorial that you should guard when the enemy is going to use a powerful move but the only dangerous moves are ones that come out instantly and don’t have to take a turn to charge. Like majima’s super attack so you never actually get a warning that it’s time to guard and it becomes useless. The other super dangerous moves being gods right hand which KO you instantly even if your guarding. I only ever used guard as a skip turn instead of actually guarding. Peerless resolve should have been earned way earlier but maybe at a much higher mp cost. I got my ass kicked by majima so I took a couple hours to grind and level which is when I think I got peerless resolve.
its literally the opposite of fun. if i had the power, every person involved in the development of that part of the game would be publicly executed as a warning to stop making such stupid fucking games.
Is this how Sega and Nintendo executives do business?
Edit: Oof. That ending tease.
I went into this fight knowing it would be a pain in the ass.... Then Tendo midway through the fight went Right hand of God on Ichiban...... and ONLY Ichiban.... like foooook me bro, he wanted me dead.
I just fought him and for me, he was really gunning for namba and saeko a lot with those move. For ichiban he was resistant taking those hits but I still had to be careful
he didn't target me so maybe its about who does the most damage
I gotta admit he got me once with his right
He got me 6 times. He used it 6 times. I got so unlucky. He went for kasuga half those times. Peerless resolve ftw
It’s so random, played the full game twice and he never did the one hit KO move to me
@@ermangenc6275you are lucky as hell, every attempt had him do it like 3 times for me
Love how you finished him with Essence of Mayhem.
That fear in the back of your head as Tendo charges up for God's Right Hand is something else lmao
He only used it once on Joon-gi for me.
Tendo:
Gets hit by an Orbital island-destroying laser
Gets up
Slides on Brass Knuckles
*Phase 2 begins.*
I think the best part of life is finding your own Tendo to overcome as a means of overcoming your own fears of insecurity and ability to empower strength above fear.
Man, I love this boss fight. But can you actually "break his guard" like the Party says.
I couldn't, but it was still an awesome uphill battle up this waterfall.
From my experience, I'd say yeah. But I noticed that you have to hit him with high quantity moves. I hit him with spin attacks (breaker job) and Saeko's idol job's spinning attack (idk the name) and his attack would lessen. But when I hit him with one powerful move, he would hit me once and my character would die instantly and I was 13 levels above him too.
I heard somewhere that electricity attacks work,not positive though
@@ftl_ow he's weak to them but not by much. Special moves count as one hit only and I used Adachi in the enforcer job and did the move with the helicópter. IT does a lot of electric damage and he still pummeled me. But when I use thee simple médium move with that electric stick (which is two) i noticed the attack weaken (he attached my adachi alot hence my knowledge. Im salmos entirely sure that combo moves (2+) are what weaken his attacks
@@creepermineh it says you're meant to throw him off, so I thought the game meant to hit alot not hit hard. Still never did that, I just fought or guarded because in reality it's not worth the risk.
Fuck Gods right hand it's so bullshit
It's legitimately only high enough damage, a 6000 damage laser had him boot up another move.
But I think 4000 total is enough.
20:46 that shot kinda reminds me of the Niskiyama intro in Kiwami
Probably same anim
I think its intended to because it's the exact opposite of kiwamis. Ichiban, the fish, beating tendo, the dragon, who has been blinded by power and must be stopped. Tendo kills a man just to get a shot at getting higher. That's basically the opposite of kiryu and nishiki
But this time Nishiki won.
Well tbh, they use that shot a LOT, not gonna spoil but there's at least 7 fights in all of the saga with a both characters punching their chin at the same time
Reminds me of the last moments of Kiryu vs Aizawa.
I got this man down to a hair of health and he just one punched me 😭
Same 🥺 just one turn too fast before I could peerless resolve again
I standby for 30 mins for this battle just to listen to the OST
Triplet after Triplet
@@majortnt2941what is bgm before triplet after triplet?
I love the intro to this fight so damn much.
I love how this video starts with Ichiban failing a dropkick solo against Tendo, and the final move is him knocking Tendo flat on his ass with one, after being supported by his friends.
I like how the effects for his attacks somewhat resemble a dragon, cool detail
I had peerless resolve equipped after reading about it. But Tendo never targeted Ichiban in my case. Gotta say it was worth it to grind to level up Nanba to get that lightning attack without which it would have been way more difficult.
Cool thing I just noticed about the dragon tattoos in the series, each one faces a different direction. Kiryu's faces left, Shirakawa's faces right, Ryuji's faces front and Tendo's faces up.
Dammit Tendo! I thought we were buds!
This soundtrack is just beautiful. It sounds like a mech charging up, which goes to show what Tendo does is practically inhuman.
I don't understand Tendo's attacks. He 1-shot my Kasuga multiple times (thanks, Peerless Resolve) but every time he used it on Saeko or JGH it did like 6 damage. Battle dialogue says you need to "throw him off" but what does that even mean, I tried using super moves while he was charging his attack but it did nothing. Couldn't ever land a status effect on him either.
I'm guessing Peerless Resolve glitches and doesn't work for you either?
You probably have been perfect blocking it and don't remember, perfect blocking God's right hand makes it deal that much of damage avoiding the instant kill
Dam I just Finished the Game and I can't believe what a emotional roller-coaster this Game was.... This will be the greatest Game And story Line I ever played... It is a Real Tear Jerker... The end Really Got me.... We truly need more Games Like This....
The heart-wrenching ghost lady substory too...
@@KishorTwist saddest substory ever
if you thought that the mad dog of shimano or the great dragon kiryu was hard,
Allow me to introduce you to a hydra.
they're both stronger than Tendo... they were both just holding back.
@@morgan0__o Yeah. Even mechanic wise Tendo isn't really that hard, his fight is just very long, an endurance test.
13:53 I don't wanna complain too much, but this part REALLY pissed me off. The dialogue here is directly implying that when Tendo is charging up his God's Right Hand, you have to find a way to stun him, while he is charging: "We've gotta try to throw him off". But in actuality, if he targets Ichiban with it, the only way you can avoid it, is by using Peerless Resolve.
I made it halfway through multiple times, and ended up dying, because I took what the dialogue gave me here, and tried to use my best offensive abilities when he was charging. Call me an idiot, but I thought that the game was trying to give me a hint to survive. But would you really blame me for paying attention to what the game was telling me?
Don't get me wrong, it's a great boss fight, probably the best in the game (and the music is just FIRE), but I really think that they should have changed the dialogue there, and not give a false hint.
Or I am just an idiot, and don't know how JRPGS work, I guess.
It wants you to hit him with silences or stuns
@@commanderodinstark3416 Yeah I stunned him and it worked out for me
I usually have Zhao, Adachi, & Joon Gi Han
called Nancy to poison Tendo which really helped but I barely defeated Tendo without dieing once
Kiryu was the toughest one to defeat for me
Tendo is the hardest... Even with all the level up...
@@captaintsu I'm on the true final millennium tower & dude, that is the hardest fucking mission to beat
I have all my active party members at level 99 & two swings from the AI & I'm already dead & it's barely the first floor too
I like how people in the comments struggled against tendo’s insta kill because he kept missing them by targeting Joon and Eri (who I gave moves that allow them to boost their evasions)
I didn’t realize that it even insta killed till Eri got hit by it right at the end of the fight
Whats the name of the Ost that plays at 1:30
Imagine tendo literally doing no damage to you and then does "god's right hand" and one-shots you..
Tendo had too much health and too many resistances, and the one-shots were annoying if you didn't have the protection for it, but even with those downsides he's just such a cool final boss for Ichiban. Good test of how far he's come in this game.
Tendo sitting in Lalitasana is imagery I only now have noticed. What a perfect little detail to highlight his self-indulged supremacy together with the empty/clouded pearl on his back-tattoo.
Lol I know this is a game, but imagine jump kicking someone like that and they just stand there scowling at you. Sheesh.
This fight was actually not that challenging for me in the longrun, the Majima boss fight made me grind the whole Sotenbori arena and get some good armor for Ichiban. I'd say I was well prepared for Tendo in the end, Peerless Resolve or not.
yeah, tendo was easy compared to majima, and I went after majima after beating arena twice, I barely leveled after that and still beat tendo
Legit the only decently challenging boss and he's still dangerous asf even if you're fully maxxed in Millenium Tower.
Majima would like to have a word with you
@@hdgamerarchives1038 I disagree
In some ways i really got lucky in this fight, most of the time tendo targeted joon gi han who has their evasion and accuracy buffed up making tendo miss every single time. Then he tries to attack adachi who only took like 1 to 3 points of damage. I think he even only attacked ichiban once in the entire fight and when he was gonna use God's Right on Zhao, he was one essence of mayhem away from being dead.
While he was an excruciatingly fight he never attacked ichiban once with gods right hand. If he did I must have dodged it because ichiban never died
To be honest this boss was so easy his damage was so low only reason it took so long was his HUGE health pool
What about the one shot kill?
@@poketcircuitfighter8288 what was the one shot kill one
@@slivermojo5421 god's warning
@@poketcircuitfighter8288 that took a quarter of my health but even tho he was weak that boss was amazing
@@slivermojo5421 then you are lucky cause that's usually a one shot unless you use peerless resolve
So there's just one thing I haven't understood.
We fought the real Tendo or was he Mirror Face? Which one was the one who gave us the Assist in the final battle?
I know this is a late reply but we fight the real Tendo. Mirror Face just comes out of nowhere at the end.
@@Zoomii5
Ok, thanks for the clarification.
Words can't describe how this battle theme empowered me to take on the blue dragon. What a game!
I need the song that plays before you fight Tendo
One of the most underrated Yakuza villains
Tendo is weak to electric attacks so use Adachi's helicopter ability and/or Kasuga's orbital laser from the business management mini game
everybody gangsta til
*"God's Right Hand."*
20:46 Dragon and the koi are always clashing with each other
Самый сложный бой с боссом - против Маджимы и Тайги при первом прохождении. Иногда они могут за один удар вырубить Касугу. Бои с Кирю и Тендо несложные, их задача - продержаться ход врага и иметь бенто
My first time fighting Tendo he whipped out the God's warning, then in the same turn, hit Ichiban with the God's right hand. I DIDN'T EVEN GET A CHANCE TO DO PEERLESS RESOLVE💀💀
This is Ichiban's Shibusawa, now we see the rise of the Rock-Bottom Dragon.
Funny you mention that, I thought the same thing: ua-cam.com/video/jmHywsD8I80/v-deo.htmlsi=2XhKhSyh-HrS-Hk3
Everyone keeps talking about some kinda insta kill move but none of my party members died once. Is it something you only encounter on legend?
Dunno if you've replayed the game in the last year since this post, but can confirm, he absolutely uses it on normal, he just has no real pattern so if you're lucky he just won't use it, or if you're not he'll charge it and use it immediately before you can even try to set up countermeasures
I hate this boss fight because he have no pattern, so is more about luck than skillls, I saw a streamer that didn’t get that attack once
1 more boss left to reach the legend difficulty of the boss
How on earth did you get all these moves like phantom shift, and also get rid of the bad moves like mega swing?
2:55 Is where the cool dramatic stuff start! :)
The fact that Tendo was this strong even when taking on 4 already formidable opponents is insane. I'd argue that he would be an equal to Kiryu and Saejima.
wouldn’t go that far, he’s a total beast in his own right- but he definitely doesn’t hold a candle to Kiryu or Saejima.
yeah he’s got a dragon on his back, but we’ve seen Kiryu destroy other dragons before. to say Tendo is on-par with him, would mean Tendo is capable of beating another “dragon”.
and he couldn’t even beat a rising dragonfish.
I agree with this comment, tendo is a gigachad
Idk about equal, but I'm convinced he would have been final boss tier for them at least
Wasn’t Kiryu beaten Kasuga crew easy and even knock his ass out while Tendo brought on his knees with bruises
tendo would be equal to ryuji or aizawa at best
this dude tanks kiryu, saejima, majima and 4 satellite lasers and it only get rids like 10% of his health
This fight would be even more epic with the old combat system~ it's fun to watch tho \o/
I think this fighting system made this fight in particular that much more intense. Motherfucker is fighting in the Dragon engine and we're stuck with the LAD Engine
nothing beats this fight's OST
I was overpowered for this fight the only move i was literally scared of was God's hand
Yosuke Tendo (Triplet After Triplet).
What is background music before the final fight?
Damn ! Cant wait for Yakuza 3-6 to PC 😱😱
I beat him on my third try. I was kind of annoyed and started to feel defeated not mainly by the fight, but because I didn't want to go through the entire tower again as, despite being easy, just takes too much time. I beat him by poisoning him, being patient, and waiting for him to have his attention on anybody but Ichiban, and hopefully not on Saeko as she is my best healer. So, with that, and a bit of luck due to Tendo on the third attempt using his one-hit punch less than before, he went down. I believe Infinite Wealth allows you to move your character, something this game doesn't, but character placement is still important so you have to wait whether that's to get the best attack in or avoid hits.
14:39 has to be the goofiest music sync I've ever seen
Awesome boss battle
Dude its 2023 and i cant beat him he kills me one shot
Use peerless resolve
@@AeroFalcore wtf is that?
@@H00LioPeerless Resolve is Ichiban Hero's skill. Cost 10 MP and apply Second Chance buff on himself.
When enemy K.O. Ichiban, he will survive with 10% HP.
Adachi can use same buff if you level up Detective job enough.
Sometimes, if you Perfect Guard this attack, it won't outright kill your member.
Essence of Mayhem for the Last Move 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Isn't that forecast move joon gi using a fortune teller job move? How is he using that in hitman job then?
Some moves stays with you even you change your job
THE CROWD USE TO LOVE THIS
can you post your levels in the different jobs?
When tendo get brass knuckles is so awesome man 😍😍
This fight was the first time I actually did the circle block
I play on normal first run lvl 99 on ichihan and han joon gi. I think it tickles at this point and only hurt if u pursue final millenium tower
Kind of curious how long it would have taken Kiryu to beat Tendo.
Probably the same as Ryuji, if ichiban can beat him, is easy to kiryu
"Then don't let him hit you!" - guy who was immediately hit in the face

Just pearless resolve in first, poison tengo, perfect guard, do the orbital laser when you can and heal your party with saeko
Ichiban vs Omi Hamura at full power.
this fight highlighted for me all the flaws of jrpg mechanics, because i was just sitting and spamming skills and attacks for 15 minutes straight, while he was trying to instakill me. it was not engaging at all, just a fight between numbers
kid named peerless resolve
I’m confused as to why everyone claims this guys tough when i beat him on my first try with little trouble. Sure he’s bulky but he never came close to KOing ichi for me
Ok what level was your party at and job ranks how lucky are you?
@@valdemarbrodersen3492 Honestly I can’t remember at all lol, and the games uninstalled rn. I was at a comfortable level id say and I know how to keep my healers in a good spot so I suppose it was that plus luck
@@Yogurtcups he's hard cause he's a long fight with the chance of straight up one hitting ichiban with one of his moves
I beat him 3rd try with my party being like 4-2 levels lower than him, I realized using a sacrifice stone was gonna save me from his chance of one shotting Ichiban
There's an item you can obtain in Sotenbori Arena that prevents instant KO skills.
I equipped it on Ichiban right away after getting it. This boss fight is noticeably less stressful if you do that ( *especially* if combined with Peerless Resolve).
There's something wrong with this fight. Everytime I get almost to the end of the fight he strikes a powerful blow and kills me with just 1 shot. And I'm at 25 levels above him at normal difficulty. I missed something or what ? lol. It starting to be very annoying repeat this session over and over.
@@OpenGame_74 Use peerless resolve and joon gi hans poison and get eri or saeko to lower tendo’s defense
also be overprepared on medicines
This fight woulda been easier than Majima or Kiryu if he hadn’t brought out that fucking God hand move
Wanna know what’s worse? The first time I fought him, he used that move on FUCKING KASUGA!(Didn’t even have the time to prep before hand either, it was Joon Gi’s turn)
2nd time I beat his ass tho, he threw nothing but lefts and that one right on Saeko(the pain, oh the pain, would be a shame if he used it again on Adachi- he fucking used it on Adachi)

i’m so glad he has a dragon tatt
YAKUZA 3-6 ON STEAM FINALLY
Does anyone have a tip on how to not get one shot by gods warning it managed to one shot everyone it targeted and i had to redo this fight 7 times i gave up after it manged to kill my party members with ease after the 17th time
года 4 назад бился с тендо, запоминающийся бой
Yes yes
I lucked out during this fight cause tendo only targets ichiban once on his one hit move
I hate how i got killed by god's right hand again and again
And force me to grind for peerless resolve in Hero job
But after I had it, he almost never use it, and use left arm instead🙂
