Nigga you know for a fact that no one says that, Kiryu and Majima were ready to fucking kill at the end of the game but were forced to stop by someone else

No they just screamed like pussies because the writer is a faggot who has to randomly pop in a badguy into the situation so the villain can get popped.

Can't wait until one of you idiots go to Japan and try to talk to a member and then get your shit kicked in.

>>377794779
At least he wants to advance in the Yakuza and actually kill a bear (Kiryu just punches tiger)

>>377794887
>Kills a bear
wtf i hate yakuza now?

>>377794779
>Haha rubber bullets mother fucker guess you can keep rooting for him
Don't forget Katsuragi basically laughs at the fact he didn't kill a single one of them just to make it even stupider.

Kiryu is particularly weird in Dead Souls though, he spends ages trying to beat up the zombies, then is okay with killing zombies, but then isn't okay with killing that final boss, then isn't okay with killing DD or having Ryuji (Who really really wants to do it) do it, but then is okay with Akiyama killing DD via helicopter crash.

>>377793687
>Yakuza game about the yakuza probably owned by actual yakuza tries to romanticize them and make them appear less bad to everyone.

Good gaijin, keep drinking the yakuza cool-aid, don't you know, they're the good guys!

>>377793687

I think I would have preferred Majima to have blood on his hands. We don't need 2 Kiryus in the world of Yakuza.

>>377793687

>>377794843
I don't think anyone here actually believes anything in Yakuza is real outside of the games. You can't just rebreak mens necks over and over for more damage.

>>377793687
>Tales of Vesperia
Yeah, that's one of the very few games where MC killed people when it was necessary.

>>377793687
a 'dark gritty' world where japanese wwe wrestlers are the strongest people in the world

>>377796270

I think you're forgetting that Velvet and co were doing the same. They were killing guards left and right at the start of the game, before they decided to just knock them out.

>>377793820
Well given that the yakuza where originally rooted in local fire fighting teams...

They kill people in Synthonia and Abyss too, Xillia as well now that I think about it in fact they were destroying whole dimensions full of people in that one.

>>377793820
actually yeah in some cases

when crime becomes properly "organized", it's in the best interests of the criminals to keep civilians on their side, so that they can continue to do business without worrying about police interference

you'd actually be shocked by how many Japanese institutions have Yakuza behind them, they integrated themselves into business very well

>>377793687
Nobunaga says Hi

>>377796682
And charity.
Fuckers are often the first to show up at disasters because they love to milk that good press/word of mouth.

>>377796410

Velvet and Rukorou, being demons, had absolutely no qualms in killing people. It was only sometime after Laphicet joins the party that they stopped.

>>377796682
anon be honest are you in the yakuza

>>377796682

I hear people are more likely to run to the Yakuza about murder cases and missing persons when the police can't be too bothered to solve them.

Yakuza are justified since the Japanese police are result-driven immoral assholes

>>377796861
Yakuza are more rooted in Japanese tradition and communities then the cops.
They know how to work PR and they have been doing it longer then law enforcement in a lot of cases.

Good thing the series is called Ryu ga Gotoku and not Yakuza.

I honestly don't mind it, it just took some getting used to. The only thing I truly truly hate about it are the dozens of charger zombies that come from off-screen with no marker on Dead Souls difficulty and these chase missions on Dead Souls difficulty. Holy shit I lost an hour because I didn't even know they were in the game and did an entire hostess' quest line as Akiyama. Framerate really isn't that bad since it's stable outside of explosions or fire everywhere, then it gets slideshowish, but even when free roaming the most you'll have is like one guy throwing molotovs.

>>377793687
Believe it or not, but the Yakuza actually have a code of honour and respect for civilians.
They're not some retarded Burger niggers.

>>377797084
Nah man, they are still a criminal organization.
They are just really good at getting people to look the other way and rely on them.
It also doesn't hurt that the jap legal system is corrupt as fuck.

>>377797447
>It also doesn't hurt that the jap legal system is corrupt as fuck.
That's every cunt, but that doesn't mean you should sell underage girls to prostitution.

>>377796967

They're not just rooted in Japanese tradition, but the Yakuza is the oldest organized crime organization in the world at the moment, which dates back I think to the Sengoku period, around the late 1500s.

>>377796029
To be fair he probably kills a lot as Shimano's right hand man. His bro Saejima's also willing to kill despite being a dindu (hell Majima was even more eager for the hit than Saejima)

>>377797553
No one says they aren't criminal as fuck.

>>377797447
Things are actually getting fucked now because the Yakuza is dying out and eastern europeans are taking over the crime scene.

Eastern Europeans are kidnapping people, selling them are sex slaves. Usually targeting foreigners since they're likely tourists and will get less/search parties while in Japan.

Criminals are criminals, and they are more than willing to kill people. That said, like other anons have stated, once organized crime is big enough it pays more to milk the cow than slaughter it for meat. Killing people for money (in these stories, real or fake) is for lowly thugs as it draws unnecessary attention. When money related killings do occur, they're on a grand scale to ensure someone inherits money or property.

>>377797084
I never said that, I just said they integrated themselves into legitimate businesses because that's more profitable and safe than trying to rob/murder people

Yakuza are basically just modern day samurai

Brutal but not without honor and a sense of what they believe is right

>>377798764
And they fucking HATE pinkies

>>377798764
Did the Samurai build an empire off the business of petty blackmail and extortion?

>>377799057

they built an empire on rice farms

not too much difference really

>>377799057
They worked for one, does that count?

>dark gritty series has nuanced internal discussion about the nature of killing
>cartoon has throwaway use of murder with no consequence

When will the team learn that slot machines are never fun? Even with cheat items the chance of you making anything at all is minuscule compared to even something like Blackjack in the Ryugujo. This 777 requirement in Dead Souls is nonsensical due to how impossible it seems to get any profit, Pachinko is ten times easier to make 7777 balls in than these 777 tokens without using any cheat items on it.

The rubber bullets pretty much destroyed Saejima for me. I can't take him seriously after that.
