"For Whose Sake" would have also suited this fight scene between two friends-turned-enemies. Kiryu probably got flashbacks of his fight against Nishiki as he watched this ... somewhere.
The whole “they share the same Japanese VA” joke aside, I like to think that Kiryu saw a lot of what the old Nishiki was in Ichiban before that fateful night in 1995, and was determined to make sure Ichiban didn’t go down the same dark path.
@@tonyc.0451 it's kinda sad that main characters seldomly reference characters that appears in the previous games, especially for those who died, if it wasn't for story purpose they probably won't be mentioned
@@unusualpizza I also know that plenty of living characters from previous Yakuza games fell off the grid. Tanimura, Saki, and Joji Kazama are a few examples.
Nishiki: NOOOOOOOOO DON'T DO THIS AGAIN PLEASE!!!!! Masato: Sorry mate, this is the only choice I have. BRING THAT SH*T NISHIKI! Nishiki: AIN'T NO WAY I'M FIGHTING YOU YOUNG MASTER! Masato: Ohhhhh so did 18 years in the joint made you as weak as trash? Nishiki: ....................... fine I'll fight you. You're going down. Masato: You think you're better than me? No way in hel- Nishiki: Well I value your life way more than anyone does, you better taste defeat because this will be your last! Masato: Ichiba- Kiryu: WAIT, NISHIKI, DON'T!! Nishiki: ...............(Agh sh*t)-
No kidding, this theme only fits Yakuza 7 Kasuga vs Arakawa….. Then, Yakuza Dead Souls “Cry” theme suits Kiryuu and Nishikiyama?? Then….Yakuza Zero “Two Dragons theme”, that’s for Kiryuu vs Gouda?! No way….. I’m going to have to look into this soon…..
I like the originals more as well but since I used the kiwami version as gameplay footage on the first video it's only fitting to use it here as well. Wish they would bring the og's to steam and modern consoles
Play Yakuza Like a Dragon. Ichiban is a great protagonist, trust me. I was skeptic on him too but he is seriously well developed and is different from Kiryu while having similar high morals
"Bring that shit, Kasuga!"
"10 years in the joint made you a fucking pussy"
@@tentayeprimo6674 *18 years (Ik what you're saying is a reference to Nishiki in the Y1 dub)
"Were you someone's prison bi*tch?"
@@Demented_Rubiks_Cube "18 Years in the joint makes you a fucking Chuuni"
This time Nishiki wins.
True because Nishiki actor is Ichibans actor too
@@sharminiviknesh5662 uh duh

@@Kagekatsu1 Hmm. I wonder if Kiryu will point that out to Ichiban in the next game.

3:10 that Tenacious Fist intended to be a finisher, but Ichiban's "ARYA?" literally destroyed it lmao

The best boss music imo. So good I remixed it 3 times lol
this is what i subconsciously expected to happen i think
Like from the (Ism) video the past still lingers on to Ichiban and Masato
Madamada, not yet

Nice
no one ever plays the og anymore :(

OG are the real heartwrenching stories. I don't like new stories and characters at all
Can someone turn this into a mod?
Who tf is this protagonist. Tf is this, where is kiryu
Ichiban Kasuga, Kiryu’s replacement. Kiryu go by “Joryu” now. And he’s now an agent with Daidoji Faction. The game is Yakuza: Like a Dragon.
@@nathanaelaudate7845 Iam not liking this. I like original timeline
@@BERSERK.xx1 Its the same timeline dude
@@Norrabal what I meant to say was original gameline story
Play Yakuza Like a Dragon. Ichiban is a great protagonist, trust me.
I was skeptic on him too but he is seriously well developed and is different from Kiryu while having similar high morals
