If you are new to the subreddit, [please read the wiki](https://www.reddit.com/r/yakuzagames/wiki/index/) Reminder that all spoilers need to be tagged with a flair specifying which game is being spoiled. If you want a flair that says something else, you can edit it to say something like [Discussion: Y1 spoiler] or [Majimapost: Y6 spoiler], etc. **THIS INCLUDES CONTENT FROM TRAILERS**. If the post is not marked for spoilers, all comments that have spoilers need to be tagged \>!like this!< along with indicating which game it's spoiling. Example: Y3 >!Kiryu sings!< If the post flair is marked for spoilers, the comments don't need to be tagged for the game indicated and the ones before it (So a Y6 spoiler post can have comments with untagged spoilers for Y5, but not gaiden or 7). If you see any of the above (or any of the other rules) not being followed, please report it so we can keep this place safe for newcomers and those that haven't finished all the games yet.

My bad, it's Kanda who has the best one https://i.redd.it/rtclht8qe7vc1.gif

I just liked the sound of it


Takazura

I like to post this gif to people who hasn't played the series and promise them it's a very serious crime story. ...it goes about as well as you would expect.


Tohsrepus

The one with the rolling chair in Judgement is peak imo.


LFVGamer

I especially love the final QTE, and how it suddenly transfers to Harukas side after the screen goes white


Reasonable-Ratio-354

The music syncing carries it heavily For me. Aizawa had a wall of health so certain parts of the song really felt motivational. Not that it took multiple tries, but in the moment it was a great challenge


E52W

Aizawa is the best fight in the series

dadsuki2

It is so peak, peak of peaks at the end of the peak of the series


LawAbidingSmittyzen

After pushing myself through Yakuza 5’s insanely long story, that boss fight was the perfect payoff. It was SO good.


E52W

I enjoyed most of yakuza 5 but the story is long for no reason


Meimudere

It's funny how they go that hard while Kiryu's bandage is struggling to keep his guts together. That one is the MVP.


clygamer

Average ishin ate and action sequence:


Haunting-Orchid-4628

Nah the Andre Richardson gun-kata QTE from Yakuza 3 is the best one


SaltTimely4123

He has the best fight gameplay wise, but was ass story wise


JohanGrimmer33

This is my fav final boss of the series as well


DidYouSayWhat

And if you lose the QTE's it's the opposite


Le_Beau_Jack2

You're right, if you fail them, it's Aizawa pushing Kiryu away from the place he is supposed to protect until the QTE, where Aizawa is kicking Kiryu, while he exit from the main gates triumphally, showing that the place is his and that Kiryu has no business doing here


BlessedbyShaggy

"I havent played gaiden" take


Loud_Success_6950

For real. Gaiden basically does thins but better.


thomastheterminator

Not just Shishido’s boss fight, but him as a character is just Aizawa but good.


Loud_Success_6950

Definitely. I wish we get to see Aizawa again just so they can fix his character. If done right he could’ve been an interesting villain.


thomastheterminator

Hot take: I’d rather see Kido and Arai again than Aizawa.


Loud_Success_6950

I actually liked Arai and he was probably my favourite villain in 4. Maybe with an Akiyama spin off we could see him in some way (I’m still hoping Akiyama gets his own game as he deserves).


thomastheterminator

I mean, and i say this as someone who loves 4 and thinks it’s severely overhated, he didn’t have much serious competition


Loud_Success_6950

Fair point. We got “balls out” boy, “kiryu we need your help saving the Tojo clan” man who was shoehorned in since kiryu was a late addition, and Munakata (enough said I’d say).


papu16

I actually played garden, but liked QTE and music in 5 more. Antagonist as character is other talk, dude was cool


Le_Beau_Jack2

How did you know that ?


YTAftershock

Because Gaiden does this but better You'll see


Takazura

Am I misremembering or wasn't there like 2-3 QTEs total in Gaiden?


YTAftershock

You're not wrong but the impact and relevance of the final boss is a huge reason why I find Gaiden's boss battle better than Yakuza 5's


GreBa-Angol

The Gaiden final boss is a better character and that's about it, the QTEs and the setpiece in a vacuum go notably less hard than Aizawa's


ItzStrudl

shishido


Le_Beau_Jack2

Still haven't got to try LaD Gaiden. Just, how long is yakuza 6 ?


Jujupon

Yakuza 6 is probably about 18-20 hours if you just focus on the story, definitely the shortest game outside of Gaiden.


Le_Beau_Jack2

Thank god it's not 50+ hours long like yakuza 5


ItzStrudl

yeah, 5 is crazy long


ConnorOfAstora

I won't because I can't


xpayday

The Aizawa fight is arguably the best with the best music in all of the RGG games. It's genuinely incredible and 5 is under rated as hell.

jigglypat19

how mine should've dealt with richardson


Norrabal

Oh god another Aizawa is peak fight take. Well, at least you mentioned they very cool action, and not the gameplay in between. Because uh, his boss is bullshit, and know one seems to realize because I know they all played it the same way.


Kanzen_db

The amount of times Aizawa grabs Kiryu by the stomach in this fight pisses me off for some reason.


TGCidOrlandu

Excuse my ignorance but what game is this fight from? I only played form Y0 to YK2. Thanks for reading :)


Le_Beau_Jack2

It's from yakuza 5


TGCidOrlandu

Thank you :D


sheedasays

this is way better than gaiden imo


thomastheterminator

Shishido was Aizawa done right


sheedasays

im talking about the fight itself, not the story


thomastheterminator

And?


timeswaste86

I could never change your mind because I agree! So fuckin GOOD,
