I like how RGG made this song so they didn't have to deal with copyright to get the Japanese theme for this fight to play in the western release and it just happens to be the best song in the game
I've left this comment on a few videos, but I'll say it again here: "My story isn't yours to write." Is a line from Shinada himself that perfectly sums up his entire arc in Yakuza 5. He isn't a near superhero fighting the world and reclaiming the legend of his namesake, he's a regular man who never had the chance to truly achieve his dream and struggles tooth and nail to reclaim it. The theme of dreams is prevalent in all aspects of the story but I think it hits closest to home with Shinada. What an amazing character.
What i like about this song is that shinada isn't fighting some random thug boss or clan assasin. He's fighting the fucking leader of the tojo clan and it's not a super serious battle like Kiryu has done with Daigo, Shinada just see's Daigo as his friend from highschool and is gonna whoop his ass while not giving two shits knowing he's the big boss of the Tojo clan.
That feeling when Kiryu was fighting the Tojo Clan, taking control of the legend of the Dragon of Dojima. Then we have Shinada, fighting the Tojo Clan’s leader in order to take back control of his life. It’s poetry in motion.
I love that Daigo's boss fight in this game isn't really about fighting Daigo - it's about just trying to prove you can stand next to him. This track really captures that emotion.
Tatsu in Tatsuo also can be written as the same way ryu (dragon) is written. Tatsu means dragon (we have proof of this from the protagonist of Yakuza Black Panther being called Tatsuya Ukyo
@Akiyama Gaming Usual stuff actually, the original song was copyrighted, and since Yakuza was such a small game in the west, they didn’t wanna bother getting the rights.
The irony of this theme is that it’s the most “Yakuza” boss theme in all Yakuza 5 and it’s from a story of a character that’s not even a Yakuza. Shinada fucking earned it.
To be fair, this is a generic rock song because the original one in Japanese is licensed. They made another one for Daigo. The original is a lot more emotional but this is more action packed.
@@arsenal4739 this one is a remix of Shinada’s battle theme. Tbh the composer of this mix generally always goes for these bombastic climaxes. The original track shows more about Shinada as a character, but it also sounds much more homoerotic. This one? This is determination.
Shinada single handedly made Yakuza 5 my favorite yakuza game. Fav character in the series. Great personality, great character arc and message, relatable, sociable/genuine, and since hes only in this one game his story has minimal involvement with the massive convoluted (and often dicey) plotline that the other characters need to abide by. I didn't mind his fighting style either. GG
Huh, so this is the American version of the song. I modded my Yakuza 5 at the beginning, higher quality cutscenes and the Japanese music. The Daigo fight song is WILDLY different, the Japanese one being much more upbeat. Thank you for uploading this, I didn't think it'd be THIS different.
I know it sounds very cliche if the song were to be titled as “My Dream”, but I think it would be thematically appropriate for Shinada, since he doesn’t want the Yakuza to take control of his dream (The Nagoya family sacrificing his career to drive off the Tojo Clan and Daigo, the Tojo Chairman, wanting to bring Shinada’s career himself).
I know this is random but now that Saejima and Majima are Daigo's right and left hands should they be called "The Mad Dog of Dojima" and "The Tiger Of Dojima"?
@@Jaegered im pretty sure they call him "the tiger of tojo" one time, at least that's what the wiki says. i remember hearing it too distinctly, but can't remember it so it was probs only said once lol
The Sega sound team Making one of the most Greatest orchestras since the dawn of man that will instantly hit a g-point in your ears just to make the theme to only appear twice in the game:
Thanks for uploading the full version of this! You should do the full version of all 4 of for faith songs from yakuza 4 final boss fights with that unreleased intro part and the two dragons rising intro part between Kiryu and shibusawa. (Edited: I'm pretty sure and no doubt in my mind recognizing each composers individual music style in the Yakuza series, this unreleased song was composed/arranged by Hyd Lunch in my theory)
@@hub_1.15 Might even be better than Rebellious Phase, since this song pretty much captures Daigo's "Punk-like" attitude during the first chapters of the game. Rebellious Phase on the other hand, although it's title fits the fight, the music in and of itself it a bit too serious and heavy for the situation
This track would be way to heavy for that fight. Kiryu isn't trying to prove anything, he just wants Daigo to hear him out. You are just sobering him up in some alley behind a club, not faceing of on the millenium tower.
Daigo Dojima: *has the same moveset as yakuza 4* Me, Who struggled against him in 4 and still hasnt fully mastered Shinada yet: NONONONONO WAITWAITWAITWAIT
It's ok man, Shinada did the Saitama workout you'll be fine ONE THOUSAND PUSH UPS ONE THOUSAND SIT UPS ONE THOUSAND BASEBALL SWINGS AND A TEN HOUR WANK AND I NEVER MISSED A DAY you also have to make sure you never have the heat on in the winter or the AC on in the summer and eat an expired bento for lunch to toughen up your stomach, though a bowl of miso soup is fine in the mornings too
What a funny and hilarious comment! I am roflmaoing lmao ing all over the floor right now, im getting in my ROFLcopter as we speak. U shoul def not gc!
It's a shame because I really enjoyed his fight in Yakuza 4, but I think that's because his moveset is a better match for Kiryu's base abilities than it is for Shinada's. Shinada you just keep meteor tackling him and counter-grabbing him
@@DetectiveGrey Dude it was the other way around for me. As Kiryu fighting Daigo is a complete joke. Like what do they think he's gonna do? Tickle Kiryu? As Shinada however, he's pretty imposing as a veteran yakuza and the 6th chairman.
@@crim1188 I definitely agree with you there on reflection; story-wise Shinada immediately collapses after the fight, like it's clear that he can only barely hang with the big boys. That was a pretty good way to show how in over his head the guy was.
When you play as a specific character long enough, doing sub stories and leveling up, You tend to forget the main story being as serious as it actually is. Then you hear one of these, and you then remember… “OH SHIT, THATS RIGHT, ITS *THIS KIND OF GAME* ” and then the guitar solo hits
I like how RGG made this song so they didn't have to deal with copyright to get the Japanese theme for this fight to play in the western release and it just happens to be the best song in the game
shinada's final boss theme is also good too
@@angelusvastator1297 I like the baba theme that play when fighting saejima more tho

''JUST WHAT ARE WE?! Some kinda Yakuza 5?!''
- Shinada Tatsuo
And I'm baseball Yakuza, I do baseball. Except I can't. Because I'm banned for life. Also Milky-chan has big booba.
I loved it when the tatooist asked how they should color Kiryu's tattoo, and he answered "Yakuza, Like a Dragon"
haruka is idol yakuza a lot of the concerts funds go towards staminans or weapons for the other yakuza 5 that way they can beat the anti yakuzer

What an amazing character.
Daigo: "You have done enough, Shinada. What remains now is my duty. You won't be a part of this."
Shinada: "LISTEN HERE YOU PIECE OF SHIT"
''Tatsuo, you're my friend and I don't want to see you get hurt. From here on out, I'll take care of things.''
''SAY THAT TO MY FACE''
What i like about this song is that shinada isn't fighting some random thug boss or clan assasin.

daigo hit him with the most elaborate and detailed story and daigo hit em with a 'when?'
Wish that guitar riff could last forever, it’s so good
It was unexpected to hear but brilliantly used. Shinada's goofy part had some great moments
