Ryu Ga Gotoku 7 (Yakuza: Like a Dragon) Fanmade Intro

- Phew, here it is! I could barely hold off on uploading it til the next day or something, so here I am just uploading it for all of us to enjoy! Time would just keep running while I was working on this. I took a couple of pointers from the official music video that I felt like are really fitting. It's a big shame they dropped these intros starting with Yakuza 6, but if I had to guess as to why, I'd say it MIGHT be because they had scenes that some would deem spoilers. Regardless though, let me know how you like what I came up with :)

"Local man tries to get job back"
And instead gets a new family and accidently becomes a CEO of an upcoming company
Basically sums it up lol
Basically the reverse of yakuza 0 😂
Annnndddd roll credits
@@angelusvastator1297 meanwhile it’s a perfect summary of Majima’s half of 0
Y'know when Ichiban's name is dropped in the song?
I FEEL that.
Same it gives me goosebumps. Like this is his beginning
It weirdly helps the fact that the title of the song is ichibanka
カスが一番 which sounds like ichibans name but in translation it means Trash is best or trash is number one
Wait idthat the literal translation for his name or does his name mean something different?
@@daniellins4114 its means "the first one" or "the best" cause he's born on 1 January, and ichi is the number one in Japanese
10 out of 10 just for including the bread scene
That is some well animated bread.
Yeah, never thought of the bread in prison can be so soft and tender
PEAK ANIMATION, that moment must appear in all "favorite Yakuza moments" videos from now on.
half the budget was spent on that bread alone
@@lkim100 that why it doesn't have real time combat
love how Yakuza 7 is like a mixture of anime setting (spiky hair hero, gathers friends in order to save the world) he rises his magical abbilities, learn his friends backstories etc. All with superb magical battles!
Except all of this is set in world of politics, struggling with economic crisis, people searching for comfort in joining manipulative groups, politicians pulling uncomfortable laws,
Two settings that normally shouldn't work together, worked perfectly xD
I know I just love it so much, there's always been hints of it with like "I'll get a healing potion from the healer" (buying an cough syrup from a pharmacy) but with Ichiban, the whole "in his imagination" thing can let them go crazy.
@@wacky-physics7506 Ichiban, the gamer protagonist.
Also have to love how all the magic at least has some plausibility in a way
And that the enemies are called sujimon and you have a sujidex to register them, like in Pokemon 😂
I sincerely see the Yakuza games realistic, i mean yeah, there is no a crazy patch guy screaming your name in real life but the thing about "Yeah, you pass bad time and the world maybe can be a trash, but you still having good or ridiculous moments sometimes with your family or friends"
The scene in which Ichiban is enjoying the fireworks is painful to watch. He looks so content and happy with life and his place in it. Just a few hours before everything changes!
I LOVE this song, the game and especially Ichiban as the new protagonist. A worthy successor to the Yakuza series - as well as Kiryu's - legacy.
0:51 10/10 bread physics
i had to rewind the opening to admire how realistic the bread physics looked about 5 times
Some of the most realistic eating in all of gaming.
I kept thinking it was a banana
I love Ichiban as the new protagonist and I haven’t even played the game yet.
I would’ve loved to see what his fighting styles and heat action would’ve been like in the original combat system.
He gives me vibes of Kiryu and Majima
I haven’t even tried yakuza in general yet and I like this guy already
Same :D
@Ganesh Surendra well the starter class for ichiban is yakuza/freelancer that uses fist and some wrestling moves.
I get your point about spoilers, but these intros help draw you into the story.
The short arc in this intro has me sold on Ichiban as the protagonist. I’m excited to play 7 now.
I definitely agree. They pump me up before getting into the game too.
Also this don't feel like a spoiler. But the scenes you showed. Gotta appreciate for not showing "Those guys". Hehehe. HAHAHAHAH!
@@MariusBoss11458 as a fan of "him", i feel offended
If Sega's concern about the intros was to avoid showing spoilers then they could have just made anime-like intros that show stuff that doesn't even happen in the game. Legit wouldn't even be out of place
Or maybe like Judgment's intro.
I never had an issues with spoilers in any Yakuza opening as there was so much stuff happening in them that there was no way I would remember the stuff that happened while actually playing. 0's intro shows Lao Gui and his introduction to the game still surprised me. I just would watch the intro once or twice before playing.
@@MugdhaMahdiShams judgment didn't have an intro?
@@FungalFury it does
@@MugdhaMahdiShams could you link it? Was this something not in the u.s release?
I finished the game yesterday and this video is hitting me hard
The cinematic intros are a big part of Yakuza, it's a shame they had to remove them, possibly from the reasons you described (which are bs imo). Well, at least we have the closest thing to one for this game, thanks to you ☺️
What were DeviLeon reasons?
@@BasureitorRead the description :)
Why the studio couldn't do the same on this as they did to Judgement?
@@irsyadiaryadiva9430 Beats me, maybe they were too lazy this time, or like Leon said, maybe they wanted to avoid spoilers for this one, since for a lot of people, this is their first Yakuza, and the devs didn't want to ruin the experience. Who knows?
Tbh they arent that necessary to games anyways. And people always complain about it having spoilers
This is the most anime-like opening (albeit fan-made) for a game that isn't even an anime.
I will still consider this an anime in my heart.
I completely agree if was a anime i would watch instantly
The Yakuza games are kinda just playable j-dramas
Ah yes good to see you added the legendary bread animation.
The intros were always the hypest. I love these fanmade ones, it just feels wrong to boot up a game without one.
Cuz spoilers like kiwami version
@@journeyvids9737 nope its engine constraints
@@Koyomi_xiv engine constraints can't be that bad. Judgment had an intro. Spoilers are definitely the main reason why they stopped.
@@MugdhaMahdiShams oh yes the judgment intro played everytime you booted the game didnt it
@@Koyomi_xiv why would a what's basically a cutscene playing even strain the engine that much?
This wouldn't be a devilleon7 video if everything wasn't unintentionally synced.
As the Music sync dude you are, I do like how they hit here.
And as for that excuse, you did some good cutaways from the spoilers.
And they could have put the characters in a unique scene for the opening like Judgement, y'know.
Make it like a Dragon Quest no?
If it wasn’t fan made I would think it is real it is so good
I love how there are no actual spoilers only snippets of certain characters. Like the characters hand at 1:23
Nice touch adding the menu at the end. Almost makes it seem real lol
I love when Ichiban is in sync with the "HA"
Man, always appreciate your fan-made intros. Pls keep making more of them for future games.
People talking about that he had the bread scene in this where I’m glad he added the scene of namba and adachi vaulting ichi atop the campaign van like how shonan no kaze did in the actual music video
Shonan no Kaze's MV is actually just their 3D model inserted into the game scenes. It's part of RGG Studios marketing their new version of Dragon Engine. Like the Majima Construction Anthem the localization team did for Kiwami 2.
I watch this everytime b4 I start the game. Excellent job.
Absolutely beautiful. I can only dream to patch these intro into the game as well as OP's for Yakuza 6 and Hokuto ga Gotoku.
This is amazing very cool Leon really fits with the song
Help I'm being held hostage by the replay button I can't stop pressing it
I like how this intro doesn't spoil that [THAT GUY] returns, even though the scene is partly shown.
I'm so sad they don't put a opening for this beautiful game, thanks to you we have one!
That bread animation was so good I can smell the bread
INFINITE WEALTH IN 10 HOURS
Happy to be all caught up on this wonderful journey with you all, and look forward to this game's sequel
This is 10/10, wish it was in the real game
Man, they should’ve gotten you to do the intro for the game. It works magnificently with what you were able to use. You should try showing this to them on Twitter so they could use this for the English release of the game.
I watch this before I play the game, God this video is perfect
Damn, not gonna lie, to me this is the best opening of the whole series, the way you managed to sync the lyrics with the action is very well done.
Excelent work👏
God just like with judgement I'm extremely excited for the English release. I need this game now
YES, YES, YESTHANK YOU SO MUCH, I LOVE YOUR OP
Just finished the game. This is really well done thank u so much
This is amazing! I watch this multiple times a day because it's so good. This deserves more likes. Keep up the awesome work!
This game genuinely made me cry, made me happy, made me feel stuff I haven’t felt in a game, I relate to ichiban in so many ways and he is my favorite protagonist, every single character is amazing, seeing ichiban grow and become the hero he wanted to be, seeing the party help eachother bond and fight beside eachother, this is definitely one of a kind game, ichiban is number 1.
Devilleon still doing god's work,can't wait to see the 2021 uploads.
Finished the game yesterday, felt so emotional and I JUST WANT MORE OF ICHI!!!!! Love this intro btw its so perfect for ichi and the gang!
THAT BREAD THO! scene included. Instant 10/10 lol. Jokes aside it looks awesome. Great job.
I love the "HA" Part because it fits so well
when he says *"HA!"*
I felt that
1:31 - How is Ichiban's Face not meme fuel at this point?
i rate this 7/7
no but seriously i'm so hyped for this game and it is largely thanks to you leon since before watching your content on the game, everything was marred by the people doubting the new system. so thanks
Now that I played it I LOVE Ichiban
This intro is well put together that it feels it could as well easily be the official one. Amazing work man
Funnily enough, I was thinking if you were going to do an intro for Y7! You literally read my mind hahaha, great job Devileon!
This is very well put together, i love it! :D Very fitting for Yakuza 7
Wow
Your intro would be perfect for the story of Ichiban!
I’ll admit I had my doubts about Ichiban but he made a believer out of me.
For a first timer at making a fanmade intro to a game you are way better than anyone else I've seen
With only 6 days left, cant help but watch this.
Good! The only moment in original intro that I liked was that in beginning, when Ichiban goes free after prison in his baseball cap. Love you, devilleon, you da best. Thank you, you doing pretty much for RGG fandom in west.
Awesome music video Devillion7.
This looks like an anime opening that gets sadder as long as the series goes on
Times changed but dragon lives on
This was epic! Makes me want to beat it again!!!
1:11 is it just me, or are those Saejima's prison inmates from Yakuza 5? If so, that would be amazing to see them again, in the latest version of the Dragon Engine
Edit: okay never mind, it seems like just a scene from when Ichiban was in prison, but anyways, Leon once again good job on the fanmade intro, honestly, I think Sega should just hire you as their Chief Marketing Officer, the way you promote Yakuza games in fucking unreal.
Lowkey you're the main reason I got into the Yakuza series
Hey you actually did it!
And it looks great!
Bet it would have the title starting screen more hype if it had this.
THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!! No words could describe how much I want to play this game. This is the ultimate hype-man of an intro it deserves.
The editing and directing skill are NUMBER ONE!
I can’t wait not only to play it. But to see others enjoy it.
Splendid work, it really is a shame. Hope they get back to making intros in later games.
Damn this was sick and the inspirations from the music video were 👌
This is so good, like honestly if this was official, it would be one of the best RGG Studios Openings that use clips from the game.
Another masterpiece has been born
I love the fact you hid Kiryu, and only let Saejima and Majima appear for one scene. Keeps them a nice surprise
Love you for doing these
This is really creative, my guy. Great job.
Love the fanmade intro man! You did it again!
One of the best song for a again trailer.. nice
Ichiban feels like a good ending Nishiki, and that's... Really nice
Nicely done as usual🤙🏿😌
Thank you for including the bread physics, even if briefly.
*This...is....beautiful*
LEON'S HEAT MOVE:
RAD INTRO COMPOSITION
Essence of Rad Intro
This song is so good and the main character is a hero and his friends are Yakuza like a dragon is a good game and the Yakuza game is one of the good game series of all time
I really want to say 'No Kiryu-chan?' Bit this op is too good like dayum-
ugh im sooooo hyped!
Dope intro
I played the Jp demo and a small bit of Yakuza 0, and this series has already got my attention cause it's such a fun idea.
I do wonder how Ichiban would fight and what his style is if it was like the original Yakuza games. From the cutscenes where we see him fight, he’s obviously a brawling beefcake like Kiryu but I imagine it’s sort of unrefined kinda like Shinada. I don’t know, maybe it’s just me.
Probably i similar style to Majima slugger style of Majima with him using his baseball bat
this is kick ass.
What I like about this intro is it makes sure to capture the important part, Ichiban and his friends together. Unlike Kiryu he doesn't prefer going it alone, he has his party.
If its not too much to ask, could we get one for Infinite Wealth? The game already has an intro, sure, but it really only works at the one specific point its shown and nowhere else :V
Doesnt matter if they spoil a little bit of the story, adding an intro is a must for these kind of games, especially yakuza.
the song reminds me of the World Cup lol
Thank you for making this intro...
Before starting 7, I always like Ichiban due to his love of Dragon Quest. But after finishing this, it become very emotional and I can’t wait to see Ichiban’s journey for around 10 years.
Godly
Eric Andre's Bizzare Japan Adventure
And so, the new dragon begins its legend......
You should make an op for judgement and lost judgement
Wayyyy better!
this was just you? this is awesome!
Idk but the faxt we dont hear the theme till the end made me feel it more (and breaj my heart)
They should just hire you to make the intros for their games
I was half-expecting Kiryu to pop up in the end
