You think a large crime syndicate back in 1980’s would waste a billion yen paying for their own men’s hospital bills? Realistically thinking I don’t think they would lol
@@notorioushkm97 Can't answer when and where. However, the answer to why is probably because he wanted a lot of money, and the answer to how is Mr Shakedown.
I always found it odd how they gave Tachibana a completely unique moveset (Save for his throws, which are lifted from Daigo), especially in a game that reuses as many assets as this. In fact, he's the only non-boss character in the entire SERIES who has a unique style he doesn't share with anyone else. Not even Date has that honor. Maybe he was meant to be a boss at some point in development but they changed it for some reason.
This is where I first discovered the low health heat move. If Kiryu's health bar is flashing red, and he has the heat move unlocked, his ground heat move becomes a no holds barred beatdown that does a lot more damage than the normal ground heat move, and can be button mashed to do even more.
@ferronway I think he meant that both Yakuza and GTA are Crime Related Dramas but Yakuza is a beatem up while GTA is a open world exploration game mainly.
It's fascinating how this one fight made a bond between the player and these two guys so strong. And after that shit happens and the drama works just perfectly, man, this feels
This game really has a remarkable OST, I specifically like Tusk a lot, it isn't a great composition by itself but it's so fitting for these long battles.
Yeah I’m gonna join rgg and make that game in the future. I’m gonna write the main story for the game as a novel and Shimano would be the main and final boss and you have to fight him 5 times 😅 like Kuze in 0. In the beginning Shimano is your ally and fights alongside you and then a few chapters later he turns against you because he is trying to compete against Kazama for the chair of the Tojo Clan
Beautiful gameplay, you know how to use the full extent of the game's options. Appreciate how you go out of your way to use as many different moves and heat actions as you can; it's super entertaining to watch. Some of these I didn't get the chance to see in-game, like the one where Tachibana warns you.
spoilers,..,,.,,,. its only dojima and shibusawa, both awano and kuze actually just accepted defeat, kuze telling kiryu “You are about to go into, the deepest, shitiest, pit of the yakuza world, but if thats your choice... THEN GO!” while awano talked about his life or something like that, then proceeds to sacrifice himself getting shot by lao gui and getting killed by a fatal stab. edit: awano sacrificed himself for majima.
Fun fact: If you pick up one of the potted plants and bring it with you from the main room at the start to where oda and tachibana are waiting for you, it will be on the ground next to you in the cutscene, and sometimes even inside of kiryu.
At the cutscene at 5:39, if you pick up a potted plant and bring it with out into the cutscene it will drop to the ground right beside you. It looks fucking hilarious when the camera looks down the hall at the three of you and it looks like Kiryu is in a tree lmao
Personally I like to think that Oda just wanted Kiryu to dodge the guy swinging and threw the sword at the guy, and when Kiryu just caught the blade he just went "What the fackkkkk..." and grew massive respect for Kiryu
I remember when I got to this part I was hyped up, but I didn't know a big brawl was coming, so I had like 2 healing items and I hadn't saved in awhile. I had to redo the chapter but it was more like getting do the fight again and just enjoy beating the hell out of these guys.
So wait, having the entire standing force of Tojo HQ take on and get beaten down by Kiryu and crew is just a *test*? No bad blood at all? That's not what I expected. Although bringing out guns and swords for a test is kinda... excessive.
It's not a test, you see, it's protocol; Three civilians walking in inside the Yakuza HQ it's a huge no no, especially if one of them is know to meddle with yakuza bussiness. It's not a matter of business anymore, it's the way of the Yakuza of showing it's not that easy and that it don't come that cheap
@@JeffCJY Really good point. They gotta show that it's not that easy or cheap, and imagine that, you being able to f*ck around with the Yakuza and then just pay them
When I played this mission, I remember thinking, “Ah, shit, I’m gonna have to escort Tachibana, aren’t I?” Just like my initial assumption that he was a villain, I ended up eating those words.
every tojo clan member prior to their disbandment should remember this, the 4th chairman back in 88 just wrecked shiz just to prove to the acting 2nd chairman that he aint no punk beech.

Watching this made me wonder what the fighting styles for every NPC are. If anyone knows of a video for all the NPC's fighting styles and/or any similarities to previous character's fighting styles are, then please link me to it. I know of one, for example, a character in Yakuza Kiwami's Coliseum, Lucha Hawk, has a fighting style taken straight from Akiyama's fighting style in Yakuza 4 and 5.
Its not re using an assest from the past games from enemies, its more like it depends on their class (thug, delinquent, men in black, Yakuza, etc) Each one has their own stances that defines how they fight
so, question for anyone that knows japenese. I've noticed that when Kiryu's saying "Let's Go!" he's said it in different ways. Does it have to do with how aggressive he's saying it? Or just the time or place?
I remember when i began yakuza 0 at the begining I though Rush mode was the best mode but on the tojo clan battle I realize that brawler mode was the best (IMO)
now I need a prequel detailing what kind of an absolute BEAST kazama was in his prime. I want this game to feature him in a combat style with guns as his main weapon and see a new side of the yakuza world where actual killings are done. Then the final boss can be Kiryu's real dad, with Shimano and the other leaders as minor bosses.
I have a question I honestly always wondered So..U know the tojo clan has different families? Does this mean even if u are just a tojo goon u are above all the tojo clan families or no?
It just means you are subordinate of HQ directly. Other families can't order you around, but it doesn't mean you're higher than them. It's like if you're working at human resources at your job, boss from IT can't order you directly without going through your boss first hand
Bruh only the fckng assassins creed characters or Geralt from Witcher 3 use keys to open doors. Kiryu is a whole street fighter of course he’ll just break open the doors.
Tojo HQ spent the billion yen Tachibana gave them on paying these dudes' hospital bills
and the cleaning bills, someone would have to clean the blood off of everything
Also the decoration and furniture destroyed during battles.
Kiryu took considerable amount of money fighting them
You think a large crime syndicate back in 1980’s would waste a billion yen paying for their own men’s hospital bills? Realistically thinking I don’t think they would lol
@@DisabledGod They definitely wouldn't, at least not for the average, disposable grunts. It's different for the higher-ups though.
its ironic that the chairman comment "are you worth a billion yen?" and then when see that your Kiryu is worth 27 Billion lol
27 billion is chump change. Try 27 trillion
27 Billion Yen??
I don't remember Kiryu getting a Bounty that high
When, Where, Why & How?
@@notorioushkm97 Can't answer when and where. However, the answer to why is probably because he wanted a lot of money, and the answer to how is Mr Shakedown.
@@Kooobf no, Mr Shakedown was the one who attacked him. Kiryu was just defending himself.

It's especially odd considering you'd think he couldn't fight so well, what with only having one arm...

Some of these I didn't get the chance to see in-game, like the one where Tachibana warns you.
It's actually encouraged. If you use a heat action more than once it deals significantly less damage every subsequent time.
Because Oda didn't bow his head a second time, you now have to fight your ass outta here. Before doing it again
The 4 people who disliked this video were Kuze, Awano, Shibusawa and Dojima

Tachibana is trying to go for the katana too
that's how yakuza works
