As a person who has seen a lot of Yakuza videos and some memes along with playing Yakuza 0 I can confirm that this is 100% accurate and true with all the games in the franchise
Yakuza 6 is the perfect example of why games should have demos. Long story short, I was never into it because I assumed it was just GTA in Japan. Well I tried out the Y6 demo and just fell in love with both the incredibly well written main plot and the absolutely insane substories lol. I own the entire series now and it's all because they let me try it out for an hour or two free.
Nah, man. Doing things you enjoy isn't a waste of time, and money isn't everything. People and relationships are. If a person actually cares that you are making money, that makes them a pimp, and you should stay very far away from them even if they wear cool clothes.
Dunkey’s taste for outro music is one of the things that make his videos so special. I never could have imagined that the theme song to the Don Quijote convenient store chain would be such a perfect fit, it literally spells out dun-dun-dun-key
I mean, considering what Majima survives in this video, I wonder if that's because of Kiryu's personal code or simply that he CAN'T, no matter how hard he tries.
Awesome, very right, i want to say Majima is his greatest Living ally, while Shintiro Kazuma is his greatest spiritual ally. But i think after 3 Shintiro kinda fades away. Granted some people in 2 were enemies of him and went after Kiryu as some bonus revenge.
Every day is a terrible day when you realize dunkey hasn’t made a dunkview on the videogame Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. Instead he makes his 13th cooking with Don Cheadle video, why cook with Don Cheadle if you could spend that valuable time making a review on the videogame Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze? Actually, Yakuza is pretty cool. I’ll let this one slide, Jason
Kind of why the last entries leaving out Ichiban's game are weaker, 6 has even less karaoke, no pocket racing and almost no Majima till a couple of minutes at the end
i plat'd 4 of the Yakuza games and have like 2,000 hours played. Pocket circuit is amazing. compare it to shit like 4's cochin cup or Kenzan's turtle racing and you realize just how GOOD it is
0:17 I like how in Kiwami 1 Kiryu gets instantly knocked out with the baton, while in Kiwami 2 where they literally break a bottle on his head he doesnt feel a thing
@@Maruwyn That's actually real tho, your bones compact and strength the more you damage them witohut completely breaking. The problem is you have a soft brain inside there.
I love how some people decided to indulge themselves into this whole ass franchise after so many years of the original game's release. I myself played Yakuza 0 a few weeks ago and rn steadily making my way through every god damn game. Hope you're enjoying your playthrough Dunkey!
Top comments didn’t mention how perfect that outro song is. It’s the theme song of Don Quijote, the beloved Japanese discount store found in Japan and Hawaii. As you walk through the store’s massive halls of floor-to-ceiling goods or getting boba and hachiko taiyaki, you’ll hear this song again and again.
8:03 That laugh Dunkey made seeing a picture of a younger Kiryu and younger Fighter sounded so genuine. Like he fell in love with the series already seeing that.
i love how dunkey has to break characters several times to let us know they really are friends and its not just dunkey making shit up to be funny cause the comedy is so similar to what dunkey would randomly come up with off the top of his head.
Before playaing this game, I actually thought the Majima pole dancing and that girl running away like she's in fast forward were all mods. Now my eyes have been opened to this game's greatness
It is man, I've played it everyday just because I love fighting my best friend Goro Majima. Soundtrack is phenomenal, story is great, combats engaging, and there's so much to do. Best series I've ever had the pleasure to play.
The video cut right to a Domino's ad at 5:19 and then came right back to the close-up of Kiryu on the phone. I was half-expecting Dunkey make a joke about ordering some pizza first; it all felt like one big bit.

The Yakuza series is a masterpiece. Yes, it re-uses A LOT, but over the years they have added and added to it, and you can really feel that when it comes to something like yakuza 5.
Kiwami 2 Majima Saga where Majima and Ryuji make mentions of each other as respectable badasses is flat out the best development from making the most enormous lad in the series (not counting Gary) a pant stealer.
A lot of people forget how niche these games used to be. Hell, at the time of Yakuza 4 and 5 the likelihood of them even getting an english release was looking bleak. So the game budgets were smaller. It was, imo, one of the biggest shames in gaming and the fact that it's now so beloved is one hell of a redemption arch. I expect the next Yakuza to have a far larger scope and budget!
@@sausagesausage oh yeah. I remember yakuza 5 taking so so sooo long to come out. I’m glad it happend. But it was really 0 that pushed this game to the masses. And rightly so. I do feel since dragon engine the game has lost a bit of charm, but its still great.
I can actually relate to the Shinji part now. I was playing zero and I was supposed to meet Oda for drinks, but instead, I decided to play the business mini-game for a week before I even bothered to go.

This game franchise will jump between complete seriousness and the most crazy stuff you'll experience in a game and I AM HERE FOR IT. Hearing the Don Quijote jingle at the end genuinely made me start dancing. I felt so betrayed when it was replaced in Like A Dragon.
The Yakuza series isn't even my style of game and I still love it so much. The stories are decent but all the minigames and sidequests are where it really shines
Everyone's been saying it but Dunkey and SBFP got me into this amazing series, and Dunkey's finally put out a new Yakuza video, and it's 10 minutes long! I remember Dunkey streamed yakuza 7 a while back but he never finished it, hope he did off-screen!
Yakuza series is something I never originally played, but recently I bought the full series on steam and it's been a surprise how much fun it is to explore this world. I love the goofy story lines and over the top mini games. I'll just be sitting going to every crane game in the world and trying to collect them all, but then I remember there's an actual game to play. It's something everyone should give a try in my opinion.
I love seeing Dunkey having fun with this game, I'm pretty sure he appreciate all the dumb but fun stuff this game has along all the minigames, I'm glad Yakuza is finally having the recognition it deserves
For those who havent played any of the Yakuza's, this is EXACTLY how the games are
The original games for PS2 had a very different atmosphere, still had some goofy moments though but overall they were much darker

Everyone in the Yakuza universe just has ketchup hidden in their clothing.

When Kiryu said "I'm not just Kiryu, I'm the Kiwami Kiryu" I literally kiwami'd my pants
goddamnit I'm gonna have to play this masterpiece again. This series is gold
This game franchise will jump between complete seriousness and the most crazy stuff you'll experience in a game and I AM HERE FOR IT.
Hearing the Don Quijote jingle at the end genuinely made me start dancing.
I felt so betrayed when it was replaced in Like A Dragon.
That little “don’t cry nishiki 🥺” at 4:34 is sending me
This feels like a return to 2012 dunkey, I love it
0:53 he actually came back after 10 years. Amazing continuity in these fighting games
Come back in 10 years.
The Yakuza series isn't even my style of game and I still love it so much. The stories are decent but all the minigames and sidequests are where it really shines
I was so moved when Kiryu said “It’s Kiwami time!” before he performed karaoke.
Please do the entire series. This was just hilarious
He's done 0 & 3 before. 5 & 6 years ago respectively.
Never played this classic game, but I can tell this voice acting is a landmark achievement for English dubbing.
unironically tho Majima was voiced by Mark hamill
@@ALIMALI-gb6gl Dunks favorite character, the freakin Joker?
@@Mr_Spaghetti yup, sadly in the og dub he doesnt do the joker voice that he shoulda done, he just does a regular old thug voice
Some times dunkey creates the art in his videos, sometimes he just curates it and lets the art speak for itself. What a masterpiece
This is honestly such a comfort game for me for as crazy as it is
Dunkey is the one who got me into Yakuza with his 0 review a few years ago. I’ve now played all the mainline games. Thank you Dunk❤
Same!! Never would I have guessed that 1 video would change my life so drastically
I've been playing through this series recently, currently on 5. They really are fantastic games, blending tones masterfully.
I have this game, and now that I know Majima acts like this I'm playing it immediately
Everyone's been saying it but Dunkey and SBFP got me into this amazing series, and Dunkey's finally put out a new Yakuza video, and it's 10 minutes long! I remember Dunkey streamed yakuza 7 a while back but he never finished it, hope he did off-screen!
I love it how during all the games kiryu legit doesn’t age while everyone else does 😹
they are finally giving him like 2 gray hairs when he's canonically like 70 years old.
Yakuza series is something I never originally played, but recently I bought the full series on steam and it's been a surprise how much fun it is to explore this world. I love the goofy story lines and over the top mini games. I'll just be sitting going to every crane game in the world and trying to collect them all, but then I remember there's an actual game to play. It's something everyone should give a try in my opinion.
6:50 " I called you three months ago "
I laughed so much i almost choked.
I love seeing Dunkey having fun with this game, I'm pretty sure he appreciate all the dumb but fun stuff this game has along all the minigames, I'm glad Yakuza is finally having the recognition it deserves
DUNKEY X DON QUIXOTE WAS THE LEGENDARY COLLABORATION OF THIS WHOLE VIDEO LOOOOOOOOLLLLL
Im really glad you've made this review, your review of yakuza 0 is literaly what got me into this yakuza franchise.
Except his Yakuza 0 review sucks because it's better than the original Yak 1-3 and he gave it a 3/5
I just realized that the Majima death from 8:40 was from House of the dead 2. Another sega title. I believe it was the fishman boss with the spear.
Woke up this mornin', got shot off a pier
I think that Majima actually wanted a ham and swiss
8:18 has to be my favourite moment of the game
Dunkey please recap Kiwami 2
Yo you can't even see that part yet if you watched the second he uploaded
