*Meanwhile at the Majima office* Alarm: ALERT! ALERT! CODE DRAGON! CODE DRAGON! Majima: What a code dragon! Nishida quick tell me what’s happening! Nishida: It’s Kiryu sir! He seems to be surrounded and in danger! Majima: oh no not my Kiryu-chan! Quick Nishida to the Majima-mobile! Nishida: The pink one sir? Majima: Damn right! I gotta save my Kiryu-chan in style! Now get me my snake skin jacket! *Cuts to Majima drifting through the city in a pink dump truck as Eurobeat is playing in the background*
Majima coming out of nowhere with a pink truck to rescue Kiryu is honestly one of highlights of this franchise. And i agree with Nico, the best part about it is how distraught he sounds whe he thinks that he ran Kiryu over.
*Important Notes:* Now that you are in Chapter 10, it is time to tell you some significant things to do as this break in the story is the second last one before the last one which is _right before_ the final boss break so I recommend doing a few things first as to help you split the side content between this break and the last break afterwards. One, you can now travel between Okinawa and Kamurocho freely past the point of the game you are at. A couple of substories/other side content unlocks between both cites but it should be noted that each trip takes 30,000 yen between the cities (because you need to pay your own plane ticket of course) since it is not before the final fight so just a warning. Two, because you can now travel between each city, ALL hitman missions unlock in the chapter you are on. I recommend doing all Okinawa's Hitman missions first until they tell you there are no more in the city to unlock the final missions in kamurocho and ultimately complete the Hitman Missions as a whole for the Amon substory. Three, (I highly recommend you get this quick) the chapter 10 only locker key is now accessible once you get back so you can next episode, get the completion accessory reward for the lockers which is pretty good. *HOWEVER, it only take effect when you equip it and pass a loading screen since old game mechanics. Once you do this, you can take it off and the effect stays until you pass through another loading screen.* Other things of note are one last journal to buy in kamiyama Okinawa shop and missable substory in evening in chapter 10.
So now we know that Mine is an orphan just like Kiryu It's pretty interesting to see two characters with similar backgrounds lead two entirely and conflicting lives. Makes for a pretty interesting dynamic and conflict between Kiryu and Mine.
Fun Fact : The 'Keihin' that Date's talking about is refer to Keihin region which is the region consists of Tokyo, Kawasaki and Yokohama, Which is a part of the larger region, the Kanto region.
Majima: Hey Kiryu, I'm gonna save you with my truck! Kiryu: Majima, you're going too fa- *Kiryu blacks out and wakes up in white space* Kiryu: The hell is this? Omori: You just got Issekai'd, old man. Kiryu: Well shit, better wait for something to happen then! *Seinfeld riff*
So funny story, in the original localization of Yakuza 3, Chapter 9 was called “The Ruse” instead of the “The Plot”, so I can’t help but think the new localization team was poking fun at the gigantic exposition dump that happens in this chapter when they renamed it lol. It’s still accurate though, because damn do you get some PLOT in this episode. But to make up for it, you get The Pink Truck of Pain and Tamiya the politician is voiced by the same actor who played Uvogin in HxH, so that’s good at least lol. Speaking of that truck btw, in the climaxes of both 0 and Kiwami, Kashiwagi showed up in a huge pickup truck with a bunch of Kazama family members to help you out in both games. Given that Majima absorbed the remainder of the Kazama family into his own in this game, my headcanon is that he acquired that truck and gave it a new pink paint job because why not lol Btw Nico, just in case you forgot, you still haven’t done all the karaoke songs yet and each hostess has their own music video! Just something to keep in mind for when you have time
I believe that in addition to the Kazama Family, Majima also took in the remnants of the Nishikiyama Family, which means that he is now the boss of essentially the biggest Family in the Tojo Clan. In a way, you could say the Nishikiyama family is now reformed under Majima’s leadership.
Nico: I'm afraid of Japanese names there are too many! Majima: Hey Nico-chan its Goro Majima- Nico: Japanese names get away from me! Majima: ... Whats wrong with him?
*in a future somewhere out there, tamiya appears in yakuza 9* Nico when he saw him: "who the fuck are y-" *oh no, what if its someone from the previous game that i forgot* "ohhhhh its tamiya! Its you! Of course i remember you! Theres no way i can forget-" *looks at scribble on hand* "mmmy best friend in yakuza 2!"
Plot! Finally! Damn, plot seems so sparse and sporadic sometimes. It's like when you open a box of cookies but end up finding Majima inside and have to fight him.
I think Nico is starting to develop a quirk where he forgets important main story characters in past games of a series yet he somehow remembers obscure side characters that have nothing to do with the main plot of said series.
*Kiryu walks by a KBBQ restaurant* Kiryu: “Hmm, that man looks like he needs help.” A Young Kim-San: “Can you help me out. It seems a newly formed gang called the Keihin Gang is bother the people of Kamurocho. Can you help protect everyone?” Kiryu: “I have a bad feeling about this. I’m not going to pull the pin on this grenade. I’ll leave it up to the next protagonist.” *Yagami in the future sneezes*
So remember how you joked about the chapter name being "The Plot", saying its time to find the plot? Yeah uh that wasn't a joke. This chapter is literally the plot of the game and it's fucking funny
You can tell by the absolute panic and fear in Majima's voice that he thought he actually ran over Kiryu. D'aaaawwwwww~ Majima is sweet boi Speaking of, I was searching the web and found this, his first name Goro, means Enlightened Son, enthusiastic and amiable, outgoing and to a great degree informative. Fits him well!
That fact that majima was so worried that he accidentally ran over Kiryu was just so wholesome. Despite all the ladies he met at the cabaret club, he really does have some feelings towards Kiryu 🥰
Nico: "Do you know how hard it was to find any comment last episode that *didn't* mention Kaoru?" *me last episode, who didn't mention Kaoru* Dame da ne~he, heeeeee! DX
Honestly if you come to forget more names, there's the "Profiles" section in the menu that says every name you need to know about anyone appearing in this game, it helps as this story can be tough to follow with everything they throw at you.
Hey Nico, since you couldn’t find it, here’s from Wikipedia: “The Keihin Region consists of the Japanese cities Tokyo, Kawasaki, and Yokohama.” And it’s pronounced Kay-hin; anytime ei shows up in a Japanese word it’s always pronounced that wei-I mean way.
"Name's Date, from the Keihin News" AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO *kills Date* Kiryu: What the HELL Me: I was saving a detective, Kiryu.....trust me......he will be in a better place now *The timeline was altered from that point onwards, and the Keihin gang was never formed thus Yagami didn't have to deal with them in Judgment*
Good to see a politician whilst shady is a good guy afterall. I feel like we see too many corrupt politicians in media. Plus with Tamiya's VA being Akio Ōtsuka, this is an absolute win. Large exposition dump aside, I really got to praise Yakuza 3 with how ambitious they can get by going pretty political and using other nations apart of it.
I'm just imagining Nico getting to a future game in the series, finding a small child, and then "I remember this guy. He's from Yakuza Ishin. He was samurai Kiryuu's best friend"
I hear that Yakuza 3 had the shortest development time out of the whole series and if that's true man that definitely explains that long exposition dump because it feels rushed.
Nico: what is it with majima and trucks!? Majima: Hey, dont disrespect the truck, we have had some great adventures together. Majima walks home while sulking, opens his truck garage and gently touches one of them. " some day they will understand"
I’ve been surprised by how much I’ve enjoyed this LP. I didn’t think I’d be into it, but it’s led to some good laughs. I just got my 2nd shot, so I’ll be at home for a while, and watching your videos is always entertaining. Also, I think you remember Lau Ka Long because he’s Chinese in a game full of Japanese characters.
@@jamesverner9132 I do agree with you. Like really? People were being snarky to him just because he forgot someone’s names? That’s just both childish and uncalled for.
Especially since Japanese names are harder to remember for non-Japanese people. Even after years of watching anime, I still have trouble remembering some names during and after watching an anime unless I look into them again.
I swear to God, I'm gonna have Vietnam-flashbacks from how many freaking times I've heard "doyu-kotoda" in this game. Naruhodou: "wHaT dO yOu MeAn?!?" Exactly.
49:23 "What is it with majima and trucks?" majima is selling luxury painted trucks. The truck you saw there was probably one of his products. He was saying that in Yakuza Kiwami. GOROMI-CHAN - Let's Play - Yakuza Kiwami - 12 - Walkthrough Playthrough at 45:34
Man the game may have some flaws, but Yakuza 3 has a great story line; and combined with Nico’s commentary it makes this one of my favorite walkthrough of this game.
@@superfanboyofpokemon I mean considering most of the questions you have (Who's the Kazama look-a-like, is the traitor really dead, who are the men in black suits, who killed Kashiwagi) are just exposition dumped in one cutscene, that is very much so understandable
Baby: (Starts crying) Nico: Ahh! It's Komada from Yakuza 0! I remember him. Komada: (Watching Nico talking about all the great things he and the child went through) And he says I AM bananas.
Daaaamn Nico, that's some crazy dedication. Yakuza 3 is the clunkiest and some of its completion stuff is crazy. Honestly amazed you got all those weapons crafted, oof. FYI, the best completion reward is "Do every heat action", it's pretty fantastic! (Also hate[?] to burst your bubble, but Amon is actually pretty easy in Yakuza 3... thank fuck)
Tamiya: An that is everything I have to tell you *Kiryu looks over and sees a skeleton in a brown coat where Date was* Kiryu: WHAT THE HELL?! Tamiya: Yes, he died five years ago waiting for me to finish my story. Also, good news. You no longer have to worry about the orphanage. All of the kids that lived there are now in their 30s. Kiryu: WHAT!! Tamiya: Oh, by the way, you are officially Granddaddy Kiryu from now on.
Hey Nico, I see that you have the Bloody Binding, I would recommend using this equipment, because while you take more a bit more damage, your heat will going up incredibly fast when attacking, it can make fights go faster if your able to use heat actions more often.
The irony about the photon blade is it's actually a call back reference from Sega about the Phantasy Star series, since the sabers they use are made of Photons instead of physical matter in most situations. I'd say the "Swords" are, but those for the most part are Physical blades coated in Photons.
Nico: Alright, doc, so how hard is this second dose gonna hit me? Doctor: Oh not that much... _Doctor turns around and takes off his mask revealing to be Kiryu_ Nico: Wait what the fu- Kiryu: BUT THIS TIGER DROP WILL!!!!
Last time in Yakuza Kiwami- Majima driving his truck to Shangri-la: “Lets make some noise for Kiryu-chan!” Yakuza Kiwami 2: A flashback of Majima’s truck from last game: “Hey Kiryu-Chan I got my truck again!” Yakuza 3, Majima driving towards the group of people and Kiryu: “Third times the charm Kiryu-Chan!” Kiryu: “... Tiger Drop!” *Majima flies out the window and is behind Kiryu* “If anyone is gonna take care of Kiryu-chan it’s gonna be me!” Kiryu looks over at Majima: Majima, you really do care.
Damn Nico I'm dissapointed, Majima coming outta no where in a HOT PINK truck with a snake leather looking steering wheel you know its his and Kiryu's love truck ment for the wedding, Majima will look GLORIOUS IN THE WHITE LACE DRESS.
From trashing a building to fight Kiryu to saving Kiryu and freaking out over possibly killing him. Only Yakuza can give character growth to mad dog with a truck.
As I though, Mine is a very principal person, but most of all he judges by his own standards. He didn't care how famous Kiryu is, until he see it by himself Kiryu is just another jakuza. Most likely he keepd Kanda because he give results, but his ambition got too big, he was a hazard now, that is why he got eliminated.
"Do yo‐ *looks to his right for no reason??* -u have any further questions?" Exopsition man's little head turn bothers me so much and I don't know why :P
Hey before you head to Okinawa there are actually a few Hitman missions available to you in Kamaroucho and it’s probably a good idea to take care of them before you go~
Mention for those who were still holding off: the plushies and pins are sold out, there's only shirts available of the nicob merch (I just checked now and bought one for myself). Shame I checked too late that I couldn't get any pins or plush but at least I scored a shirt this time.
I personally find that the window after a blocked combo in the arena is much more generous for pulling off the Komaki Parry rather than the Tiger Drop.
Majima: KIRYU-CHAN, WHERE ARE YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUU Kiryu: Roooover hereeeeee *They then got into the Majima Machine together, which was actually 18 wheeler tractor trailer, and drove off to solve yet another mystery*
Nico did you know that you can play the chapter a new day at the final remix version of the world ends with you so please try to check it out and by the way kingdom hearts melody of memory has come out
Don't feel that bad about it, at least I hope internet people are reasonable enough to realize that forgetting one character briefly isn't THAT big deal ...Right? Riiiiiiight? Everyone here is reasonable RIGHT?
Another benefit of doing all of the hostesses is that you can now go see all of the karaoke song videos! You can invite the girls and see all of the cutscenes! 🥰🎶❤️
The trauma of the Keihin gang follows Nico everywhere. And just a side note, since it bothers me to no end, it's pronounced "Kei" as in "okay" not "Kai." So it's "Kayhin" not "Kaihin."

Que Deja Vu from intial D!
Majima coming out of nowhere with a pink truck to rescue Kiryu is honestly one of highlights of this franchise.
And i agree with Nico, the best part about it is how distraught he sounds whe he thinks that he ran Kiryu over.
Goro Majima: Vowed to kill Kiryu himself.
Also Goro Majima: Gets distraught over the thought of having ran over Kiryu with a truck.
@@MaxusFox23 I don't think that's how he wanted to kill Kiryu.

Hey Nico, I see that you have the Bloody Binding, I would recommend using this equipment, because while you take more a bit more damage, your heat will going up incredibly fast when attacking, it can make fights go faster if your able to use heat actions more often.

I mean.... that plan you mentioned in the beginning would be a good way to gaslight most of us into rewatching your Yakuzo 0 playthrough again lmao
Majima likes trucks because his family is also a construction company.
Nico: Alright, doc, so how hard is this second dose gonna hit me?
Doctor: Oh not that much...
_Doctor turns around and takes off his mask revealing to be Kiryu_
Nico: Wait what the fu-
Kiryu: BUT THIS TIGER DROP WILL!!!!
I really like how the game was pretty much ready for people to dick around and had a segment ready to let people catch up easily with the story
23:11 Btw hes talking about Trillions of Yen not Dollars.
Honestly stayed up all night waiting for another nicob video
Nice! I love the revelation of the whole plot in this episode.
Last time in Yakuza Kiwami-
Majima driving his truck to Shangri-la: “Lets make some noise for Kiryu-chan!”
Yakuza Kiwami 2:
A flashback of Majima’s truck from last game: “Hey Kiryu-Chan I got my truck again!”
Yakuza 3, Majima driving towards the group of people and Kiryu: “Third times the charm Kiryu-Chan!”
Kiryu: “... Tiger Drop!”
*Majima flies out the window and is behind Kiryu*
“If anyone is gonna take care of Kiryu-chan it’s gonna be me!”
Kiryu looks over at Majima: Majima, you really do care.
Hey Nico, you could check the bios to see characters you don't remember
If it's any consolation, Nico, I didn't immediately know that texter was _that_ Kaoru, because her surname had slipped my mind.
Man, imagine that in an alternate universe, we would have gotten Kiryu as a CIA agent.
He can make the excuse of killing people "for his country"
I know you’re making a joke, but that does nothing but make me cringe.
@@pn2294 you must be fun at party's.
@@sidthemid_yt9123 I save everyone the trouble by avoiding parties.
I think you mean "Definitely NOT killing anyone"....
Instantly at least....
Damn Nico I'm dissapointed, Majima coming outta no where in a HOT PINK truck with a snake leather looking steering wheel you know its his and Kiryu's love truck ment for the wedding, Majima will look GLORIOUS IN THE WHITE LACE DRESS.
From trashing a building to fight Kiryu to saving Kiryu and freaking out over possibly killing him.
Only Yakuza can give character growth to mad dog with a truck.
Damn, I didn't realize Date was secretly a descendent of Robert E.O. Speedwagon!🤔😆
As I though, Mine is a very principal person, but most of all he judges by his own standards.
He didn't care how famous Kiryu is, until he see it by himself Kiryu is just another jakuza.
Most likely he keepd Kanda because he give results, but his ambition got too big, he was a hazard now, that is why he got eliminated.
"Do yo‐ *looks to his right for no reason??* -u have any further questions?"
Exopsition man's little head turn bothers me so much and I don't know why :P
Majima: You like my Barbie Garbage Truck?
Kiryu: Majima-San, why do you h-nevermind. Thanks for the save.
Ah.... classic plot exposition with a politician. And Majima pink truck. Nice.
2025 Nico: Who the fuck is Nenji Ogata?
*Meanwhile back in 2020*
Nico: Why am I suddenly SEETHING WITH IMPOTENT RAGE?!
Hey before you head to Okinawa there are actually a few Hitman missions available to you in Kamaroucho and it’s probably a good idea to take care of them before you go~
Majima: where are you Kiyru-chan.
Kiyru: right here dam it.
Majima: oh sorry thought truck-kun isekai to different world.
Date is asking more questions than Solid Snake
this is awesome as always, Nico!
🎶Getting Freaky on a Friday night! 🌃 🌉
Mention for those who were still holding off: the plushies and pins are sold out, there's only shirts available of the nicob merch (I just checked now and bought one for myself). Shame I checked too late that I couldn't get any pins or plush but at least I scored a shirt this time.
Oh another episode yaaay❤️
Hey nico another tip for combat that works for me is to wiff 2 square moves then turn around and hit a triangle then you can chain in other attacks
5:25 That’s a good mentality to have. You’ll need it for this series.
I personally find that the window after a blocked combo in the arena is much more generous for pulling off the Komaki Parry rather than the Tiger Drop.
So in this section, I didn't choose the topics of discussion in order, and they talked about Joji Kazama as if they already discussed him beforehand.
Wait until Nico finds out (massive spoilers) and redeems himself by suplexing (actual spoilers)
It is cool that the mechanic of the Kamiyama gear applies to even Heat Actions.
Majima: KIRYU-CHAN, WHERE ARE YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUU
Kiryu: Roooover hereeeeee
*They then got into the Majima Machine together, which was actually 18 wheeler tractor trailer, and drove off to solve yet another mystery*
This is canon
Australians and New Zealanders when looking at the title: "Disgusting."
“Character in yakuza 5 was 0” how does he know?!
Nico did you know that you can play the chapter a new day at the final remix version of the world ends with you so please try to check it out and by the way kingdom hearts melody of memory has come out
No
Don't feel that bad about it, at least I hope internet people are reasonable enough to realize that forgetting one character briefly isn't THAT big deal
...Right? Riiiiiiight? Everyone here is reasonable RIGHT?
"c'mon, I'm the Dragon of Doooojimaaa" has the same energy as "Hey guys, it's me Juro....I'm Juro...guuuuuys IM JUUUROOOO" 😂😂
49:12 **Deja Vu intensifies**
Another benefit of doing all of the hostesses is that you can now go see all of the karaoke song videos! You can invite the girls and see all of the cutscenes! 🥰🎶❤️
Good vid nico!
Well actually Keihin IS a region, just so you know.
Kazama, Joji?
SHOOTING PEOPLE IN THE DARK!
The trauma of the Keihin gang follows Nico everywhere. And just a side note, since it bothers me to no end, it's pronounced "Kei" as in "okay" not "Kai." So it's "Kayhin" not "Kaihin."
