Dawg every staminan spark in the world couldn't heal the pain after Kiwami 1 I made sure to ONLY use beast style Bear Hug to beat Nishiki I couldn't bring myself to use the big attacks, so we hugged it out instead 😢
Nishiki wasn't just Kiryus oath brother, but they basically were actual brothers. Fighting your oath brother hurts, but having to fight then watch the man who is basically your bio brother die is so much worse.
Bruh, did NONE of you notice what happened in that cutscene?!?! He was already dead because when he stabbed that guy, he got shot like 3 or 4 times in the stomach, there's no way he would've survived.
I went into Yakuza 0 after watching a compilation of Majima everywhere. I thought it would be nothing but goofy. That scene in 0 in the middle of the woods caught me so off guard.
shit i fucking cried on that scene. can't even remember last time crying over a videogame, but here i am almost tearing up every time i remember it. the cut was just too deep, poor nishiki
I won’t lie. This video kinda helped me decide on getting my first tattoo and only tattoo. Got a Koi fish jumping over a waterfall with a Tori gate behind it on my right shoulder blade. I truly do miss 0 Nishki.
my brother got me into yakuza and through yakuza 0 Nishiki was my favorite character it was so sad for me to see him end up like that i finished gaiden 1 or 2 months ago and i still miss him
When i Started playing Kiwami I thought we would get to play as Nishiki after all, having 0 as my first game I thought "Oh okay, that guy with the slick hair is probably the other protagonist right?" Man....
I went into Yakuza blind, starting at 0 and then moving into Kiwami and it genuinely felt like being in the bad future of Back to the Future 2. Still not over it honestly.
Kiryu is both what made him strong, and what broke him down. Kiryu there put it all in perspective and kept his bead on his shoulders. But with kiryu gone he was always only second best and everyone made sure he knew it. It was enough to break any man. Though, i get the feeling with motr interaction between nishki and kiryu earlier in kiwami, the end result could have been different.
I played yakuza chronologically, so I started on yakuza 0. The moment I saw their tattoos, I knew Nishiki was going to be a villain one day Two brothers, one always overshadowing the other, one with a koi tattoo, and the other with a dragon tattoo A Japanese myth says that there was a koi fish trying to go up a river, so that once he reaches it, it'd become a dragon It's basically "You're never going to be him" painted into Nishiki's skin
@@AbelMusa I know, but knowing how dragon tatoos are like: the real deal in the RGG franchise, and also Kiryu is the protagonist, add the many times Nishiki cried in 0, it's kinda obvious Nishiki was going to break in a near future if it wasn't for the dramatization and romanticization of the characters, his tatoo would make more sense to be a dragon, and Kiryu to be a Koi in the first game, Nishiki rise through the ranks like a leading dragon, while Kiryu is a tough MF that can't be downed easily, and looks up for Kazama as a role model, even though he thinks Kiryu would never be like his boss, just like a Koi fish would revere a dragon, taking a long time to become one, but Kiryu literaly has DRAGON on his name dragons are also associated with transcendence, so Kiryu is supposed to be the perfect role model for a yakuza: the only dragon that remains after fights against other dragons, while the fish like creatures are more emotional and can break you can see that on how Nishiki acted like a bitch until he kills someone (being a koi fish), and Kasuga ALMOST killed a guy, blinded with rage, with Kasuga being a dragon fish unfortunately, regardless of how cool those tatoos are, and what they actually mean, the narrative is a bit "on your face" about who does what based on their tatoos look at Majima's tatoo: a sad and yet happy crazy man, just like a hannya can be seen as a crying or laughing demon women. it's a "the tatoo symbolism dictates who you will be" kinda situation. majima has his tatoo long before his traumas happened from the tatoos on the series, the Koi fish is one of the few I'd actually put on myself if I had to
It's crazy because i started with 0, so in Kiwami, when he just casually drops, "we are no longer oath brothers." That shit hit like a neutron bomb. After all that, and you just hand wave it away on a whim? Didn't even finish his drink.... damn
I still fuckin miss him.
For at least ten years in... well, you know.
Forgetting Nishiki? No I don’t want that! I will remember him for 10 years at least.
me too.
I'll always miss him
dayum
I just finished Kiwami man Not even stamina royal can fix me
I would've finished Kiwami if it wasn't for that fucking cunt Jingu
Dawg every staminan spark in the world couldn't heal the pain after Kiwami 1

@@Knight-vu4xo instead of beating the living hell out of him, you broke his spine
the good ending
I let him heal out of respect and didn’t use tiger drop
i fucking destoryed his skull and rib cage without regretting it
Man, I swear that part where Kiryu is wearing Nishki’s suit gets me everytime
It even matches up with the song lmao
@@sparkyspinz9897Fr, that’s what’s so funny about it 😂
"I even had the red suit, I was Nishiki"
"What if Nishiki made a song about Nishiki"
"Man that would be crazy!"@respectovaacheck
"the always rude kanye" with him murdering someone is class
Still miss him, even after playing 0 through 6. Nobody can replace Nishki.
ichi comes close
Ichiban is like nishiki
@@davidcenturion961 actually ichiban is voiced by nishiki's japanese voice actor, so that's pretty accurate
@@debts4458 ichiban is the joseph joestar of yakuza
@@davidcenturion961and we love him for that
The only good thing about modern Nishiki is how he saves so much money on hairgel by using the blood of his enemies
That moment when nishiki uses blood to slick back his hair was his last moment as old nishiki. That karaoke song "tonight" gets me every time
Bro dropped the hardest nishiki edit and thought we wouldn’t notice
Nishiki will always be the best oath brother. :'(
Majima and Saejima:
Nishiki wasn't just Kiryus oath brother, but they basically were actual brothers. Fighting your oath brother hurts, but having to fight then watch the man who is basically your bio brother die is so much worse.
we miss our koi boi fishiki
the worst thing is that nishiki didnt have to sacrifice himself, the bomb was timed. he didnt need to shoot it
in his broken mind, he felt the only way he could atone was by dying
He was a broken man, there was really nothing waiting for him on the other side
Nishiki didn't sacrifice himself. He commited suicide.
Bruh, did NONE of you notice what happened in that cutscene?!?! He was already dead because when he stabbed that guy, he got shot like 3 or 4 times in the stomach, there's no way he would've survived.
@@e-madart9420Counter point: Kashiwagi got gunned down by a warthog machine gun and survived
I miss the "Kiryu before spending 10 years in the joint".
One of the most tragic and greatest antagonists to ever appear in a video game. His story breaks my heart. Love you, Nishiki
I went into Yakuza 0 after watching a compilation of Majima everywhere. I thought it would be nothing but goofy. That scene in 0 in the middle of the woods caught me so off guard.

@@eujisooda same here
Literally seen that scene last night for the first time, emotional
@@Godslayerpac It hit real close to home since I got a friend whos as close to me as these two are
Every day I hope for the next game to reveal Nishiki's death as being faked so we can see him again.
I won’t lie. This video kinda helped me decide on getting my first tattoo and only tattoo. Got a Koi fish jumping over a waterfall with a Tori gate behind it on my right shoulder blade.
I truly do miss 0 Nishki.
You were my brother Nishki. I loved you
It's over Nishiki, I have the Tiger Drop!
Amazing short. I love how you implemented the song with the rise and fall of Nishikiyama.
"And now I look around, there's so many Kanyes!" with Ichiban showing up was what I completely ignored, well done!
Going from 0 to Kiwami is fucking crazy, legitimately thought that it wasn’t Nishiki and just someone pretending to be him or something.
That ichiban part...:)
Being nice for too long changes you
Being nice in a bad environment/influence. If he stayed by Kiryu's side he will always be the good loyal guy.
I love that you snuck in Ichi’s tat…Nishiki lives on!
dont worry nishiki will wear glasses and have short hair and becoming a bartender in yakuza 9 like a dragon :infinity lives
I wish they made a game for him
this video actually makes me emotioal, thank you so much
i like 2000s nishiki
-angry
-backstabber
-did kill
-use anyway to climb to the top
-not trust anyone
-ten years in the joint
After Wealth, they need to make a Prequel of Nishki events while Kiryu was in the joint for 10 years.
my brother got me into yakuza and through yakuza 0 Nishiki was my favorite character it was so sad for me to see him end up like that
i finished gaiden 1 or 2 months ago and i still miss him

10 years in the joint-
Shit, still wondering why it's under thousand views. Great stuff man, hope this will get blessed by the algorithm.
thanks dude though i doubt it will happen but here’s hoping
@@solidicity9787what about now?
@@hamza.991 just gonna assume that you religiously watch this video lol. crazy how faithful you are with this video, thanks.
I was so fucking depressed when played yakuza 0 after original first yakuza
so I cried, doesn't make me less a man🚬
I cried at the final climax battle of yakuza 0 when i heard for buddy.
I started the Yakuza Series with 0... Jesus Kiwami hit me like a fuckin brick 🧱
I went into Yakuza blind, starting at 0 and then moving into Kiwami and it genuinely felt like being in the bad future of Back to the Future 2.
Still not over it honestly.
Wtf why did this get me genuinely emotional
If only Dojima would've kept his fucking hands to himself, man...😮💨
Nishiki was simply to nice of a dude, I’m afraid to admit but he want built for the yakuza 😔
Im delusional and i like to convince myself every now and then that Nishiki is still alive
With yakuza 8 coming out and it being a team-up with Joryu and Ichiban, it basically means we'll get a co-op game with Kiryu and Nishiki
Nothing could make me hate Nishiki, man, I love his little bastard smile in Kiwami.
I am once again sobbing over fishiki how dare u
Definitely a badass tribute to their friendship
10 YEARS INTO THE JOINT MAN MENTIONED!!!! 🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nishiki was the best character man
I just started Kiwami, I'm dying to see why he changed so much
even after all he did I still
We all fuckin' miss him
best character ever made
10 year joint man...
Kiryu went the Kuze path, going by his own rules and holding onto his fame, while Nishiki took Shibusawas type of getting to the top
Boy oh boy where do i even begin
Man,I love Nagumo but even him can't replaced Nishiki. Nishiki is just too special...
Nagumo was good, so was Nishiki, no need to compare the two when they're both great in their own arcs.
Well made, every lyric was thought out well with a good part like the "beat" showing him sing. Underrated post👏👏👏
i got the feeling that if some how he had someone to just give him a "man dont listen to that shi" in kiwami, he wouldnt be so messed up
Kiryu is both what made him strong, and what broke him down. Kiryu there put it all in perspective and kept his bead on his shoulders. But with kiryu gone he was always only second best and everyone made sure he knew it. It was enough to break any man.

from the tatoos on the series, the Koi fish is one of the few I'd actually put on myself if I had to
Fitting song, both did become villains after certain events and mental jackhammering.
he was reborn as ichiban
i actually cried at that edit lol
this is smooth man!! really emotional to watch
It's been months and I still think about this video 💔 miss '88 nishiki fr
It just ain't the same without joint man
Playing Yakuza for the first time, started on like a dragon and it got me hooked, decided to play through from Yakuza 0, great game so far
well, at least the voice actor of nishiki came back and voiced ichiban from yakuza 7
10 years in the joint.......

After all that, and you just hand wave it away on a whim? Didn't even finish his drink.... damn
Fucking hurts man 🥲
The fact I am watching this TONIGHT on a Friday really hits different man
BREAKIN' THE WORLD
KIRISAKE TENDERNESS
I miss my kyoudai
Pre-10 years in the joint nishki
He was a awesome bro still one of my fav characters in any Yakuza game i miss the bro😢💔
This felt like a celebration of life - legit made me cry
Only if Kiryu knew what Nishiki would have become in 0, maybe he would still be around
nishiki still lives in our boy kasuga ichiban, I love the fact the OP acknowledged that
People miss me...
I miss him so much
Loved it makes me wanna play again
Don't worry... Kiryu'll meet him soon...
Dame da ne... dame yo.. damn you Nishiki... You used to be cool...
i like that one of the cuts isnt even nishiki, its ichiban lmao
10 years....
I like how technically Yakuza 0 IS the new kanye and yakuza 1 is the old kanye
Kiryu = Batman
Nishiki = Joker
Majima is joker
Ive played every yakuza game more than once, and the development they did for Nishiki in 0 still hits the hardest.
“When did it all get so fucked up, Kiryu?!” Is still one of the greatest scenes not just in Yakuza 0, or the Yakuza series, but in media in general.
Seeing ichiban sing judgement with kiryu in the new infinite wealth trailer reminds me of nishiki and kiryu...
What 10 yrs does and doesn't do to you
This hurts so much
Man this is so good, I can't stop watching
What a king
Playing thru kiwami 1 then going back to 0 on the 1st save file while they were eating Ramen. That shit hits hard.
10 years in the joint never existed!!!
it always hurts...
Comparing the ichiban and nishiki scene was a move
Did anyone here play Yakuza 0 first, then go through Kiwami hoping that Kiryu would save Nishiki from himself?
Yes. I started with 0. Kiwami 1 hit even harder after I did that. And Kiwami 2 was almost an overkill. What a great series
I love Nishiki
10 years in the joint
