Prime Video Series "Like a Dragon: Yakuza" – Review









https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmNhmbOgHkc

Like a Dragon: Yakuza is a decent watch, though not without its flaws. The show takes a different direction compared to the games, which may raise some eyebrows, especially for long-time fans expecting a faithful adaptation. However, it has its strong moments, particularly in the way it explores the relationships between the characters and the unfolding story across two time periods.
While the show captures the darker, dramatic tone of the Yakuza series, I do wish it had incorporated more of the quirky, lighthearted moments that the games are known for. These unique, offbeat elements often give the games their charm and balance the intense action with humor and heart. Additionally, the fight scenes in the show could have been more ...

Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio director extremely pleased with Yakuza Kiwami Switch sales







Quote
Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio director Masayoshi Yokoyama was speaking about the release during a live stream yesterday.
We’re going off of a rough translation here, but he indicated that the game is “selling like hotcakes.”

Here’s what was said regarding Yakuza Kiwami’s initial Switch sales during the broadcast:
"First of all, I heard that Kiwami is selling like hotcakes. That’s good.
The executives of the company were predicting the number of units. I missed it by a long shot.

Like a Dragon: Yakuza’s Kiryu actor "really wants" to try the game series, but only if he has enough time to play it from start to finish



Quote
"Yes, actually I do have a strong feeling towards that. I really want to play the game, but if only I could be given a break to do so," Takeuchi said (via translation) when GamesRadar+ asked whether he would now be tempted to play the Like a Dragon series, formerly known as Yakuza in the west.
"What I mean is that I really like playing video games, but if I start playing it I need to play the whole game. So, I need to stay in front of the television screen for a long, long time."
Despite Takeuchi outlining his intentions, don’t expect him to be ...
