Absolutely amazing rumble. Such a good stealth work: *(SPOILERS)* Kiryu comes out early and outlasts 20 other wrestlers (including perennial favorite Goro "Mad Dog" Majima and reigning rumble champ Shun "Super Smooth Cashman" Akiyama), but lets Ryuji push him out to cement him as a heel. _Oh no!..._ But Kiryu just goes backstage to catch his second wind, and drinks 30 Staminan Royales™ before changing into the Ono Michio costume and coming back right at the end. Then, after clearing out the other jobbers, we get what we've been stealth-building up to: a 1v1 match between baby face Ono Michio and heel Ryuji Goda, with the Pride of Onomichi delivering an Ono Beatio to the Dragon of Kansai and becoming the Royale Champion. All to promote the upcoming *_STAMINAN presents SUMMERSLAM_* being hosted in Onomichi, Hiroshima! What a masterful work by Vince McHironaka!
Loving everything about this. I especially love how, as soon as Kiryu came in, Kuze pretty much immediately started focusing on beating the shit out of him. Just felt so on point. Kinda hoping to see Nishitani, Kenmochi, or Ibuchi in the next rumble if that happens. Maybe also Ryo Nozaki from Kurohyou 2, though that may just be because Born to Be Wild already sounds like it'd be a fitting wrestling entrance theme.
4:54 Poor Nishida, the instant he shows up, Majima starts beating him, even in another game he cant catch a break from his boss
He got folded 😂
"what took you so long dumbass!"
I still remember the hell in a cell match between Kuze and undertaker and how Kuze was thrown from the top of the cage, but still came back 4 times
Of course Mine came in with a phone 💀
Mine when there's no change in plan
Where and how the heck did he get an 80s cellphone working in 2023?
Zer is no change is ze pran

me and my friends fucking love this series, whenever a new ep comes out its a red alert and we watch it together
Dude same
That's rad
12:24 this sync is just amazing ngl
For a guest character, Ryo lasted pretty long. And boy was Hangman whooping ass.
That's my boy Ryo to ya!
What was his themed called again?
Earth and sea ost version @@thunderborn1273
If we assume Kiryu is actually Ono Michio, that means their victory was... poetic to say the least, since they got kicked out by Ryuji.
I don't know how this ended up on my home page but I am SO glad it did! Thanks for giving me a much needed laugh with all the Royal Rumbles!
Love how pocket fighter is on the ground for the entire time his theme plays
11:07 the fact that akiyamas theme got synced up with nishida beating up akiyama got me laughing so hard lmao
Wow, music editing and subtitles... I can't stop admiring it. It's amazing to think of the sincerity you've worked on those details.
Me: explaining yakuza lore to my friend excluding some less important moments
What's going on in his head after i finish:
Feared the worst when Miracle was put over the top rope right when he joined, but he turned it around and then some
This time it was bacchus 😭
The redemption arc of Miracle!! I was rooting for that man!!
Man I love how the character themes keep playing after their entrance, adds a lot to the fun

12:26
13:01
16:49
HANGMAN needs to chill, he’s been slamming people on beat 😂
Did Kiryu disguised himself as Ono Michio?
9:50 He just standing and waiting for music drop.
Kiryu: YOU DARE HURT MY KUZE 3:09
9:50 the fact that hangman wait for the sync
Hahaha, Kuze entering on a bike is glorious! Thanks for the content, man!
Omg the intros for the first two contenders are amazing xD
This match deserves 5.25 stars from Meltzer
my man Gary Buster Holmes did not deserve getting bodied that hard that quickly
I like to imagine Ono Michio was just Kiryu in a different outfit
Holy fuck, peak content is back.
Fr dude this was the highlight of my day. I will be waiting patiently for part 4.
After seeing Miracle eliminate the likes of Yagami and Saejima, I thought we were getting a "Santino Marella about to win the rumble" moment
20:50 "I'm still mad about you stealing my phone!"
Right now it's the best content on UA-cam for me!
Seeing Nishida finally beating the shit out of Majima after all those years feels so cathartic, you go King beat that psychopath
Gotta respect Hirose for only coming out after the best part of Akyiama's theme played
Shinada is an incredibly technical wrestler in Yakuza 5. It's good to see he got picked up by a NJW gym.

Can watch this for hours!
seriously we need more of this
Dude once again amazing, I just finished my huge Yakuza universe in 22 but now I gotta start remaking it all in 23 damn
I felt bad for pocket circuit fighter. Bullied from start, got like one move off and lost
Absolutely awesome content
I live for these videos
this video cured my sadness
Ryuji kicked out Kiryu 🗿
This is amazing
Please do more of these
I was WAITING!
Alv te quedaron bien chingones los modelos e inesperado final XD
(Spoilers)
I like how Munakata has a plaster on either side of his head to cover the bullet wound.
Where's Tatsuya Ukyo
ohh hell naw kuze
Hazuki style can beat Majima but not Pocket Circuit Fighter
What’s Ryo theme called. Number 10 I mean?
Earth and Sea from Shenmue
Good to see Munakata get slapped around by Saejima lol
