First off, here's a link to the tier list:

Secondly, thank you. As you could tell from this video, I've been dealing with some minor health issues yet again, which made the process of creating this video very troublesome. There are certain placements I would change if I were to redo the list, and there were some points of discussion I had to cut due to issues with my microphone during the recording. Regardless, I wanted to make another big milestone celebration like in the past, because I love everything we've accomplished thus far, and I want to keep adding to it as long as I physically can.
I'm currently playing other games in my spare time to help avoid Yakuza burnout, but that aside, it's business as usual for the creative process, so I hope you'll look forward to whatever comes next. Thank you again. Cheers!
Huh, it just occurred to me that Yakuza 3 is no longer the final time Majima and Kiryu fight. Still their last 1 v 1 fight, but they do finally fight again.
Also, just gonna add "was easily held off by Seonhee" to my long list of reasons why Saejima is absolutely not on the same level as Kiryu despite the lies 4 and 5 try to tell.
Yeah I agree that Ebina had lacked narrative buildup to being kiryus final boss fight, he’s seen as the amalgamation of mistakes and karma biting back on kiryu but I can’t sense a connection or worth in the fight between the two since we don’t see enough of ebina history to either related/abhor his actions.
Haha I got so mad at the final Dwight fight, some of my guys kept going towards the shark danger zone when it wasn't their turn. How they just randomly wander around? They kept going towards the shark. Stop doing that idiots, I don't need you becoming shark food! 🤬😂
Amon fight would feel like a good conclusion if not the fact that it's a bad one with several flaws at that.
Wrong player models, lack of voice acting for Jo, lack of his music during his fight in the dungeon, no win condition when you beat him for the first time. It feels rushed and last minute addition when you realise that all the Amons look like Shin if you remove their cosmetics. The fight gimmick is really cool but I'm sorry, It's worse than the Michio Rangers in terms of aesthetics.
One thing I REALLY like about the fights against the "giant monsters" (e.g. the shark and the excavators) is that your party is lined up like an old-school JRPG party, I thought it was a cool detail with respect to the classics
Bryce is awesome. Extremely simple but also hilarious. Really entertaining
Unlimited Health
I stunned the shark and it only got to attack one time 😂
to say my hype meter went out of the bar when i saw the yakuza 4 in the same party, probably the best finale set piece in the series (besides the final boss)
funny how my view on the two final bosses sorta mirror each other
I liked bryces fight but wish more went on in terms of spectacle, im just not a fan of the uzi spam, kinda feels a little lame is all? It never felt like Ichiban was really ever challenged, and that what was I was hoping for in this Kiryu game disguised as an Ichiban game,
Now I don't think ebina is the greatest, but I do like what he represents. I prefer his fight much better than Bryces. But me liking Ebina's fight makes me dislike some how, because I wish Ichiban's fight had more personally emotional stakes.
Im tired of villains who are "pathetic and lame" narratively so the fight "Pathetic and lame" as a final boss.
bryce is a good fight, objectively the best "Jackass with a gun and goons" boss in the series, but thats not what I want for final encounter in a yakuza game.
Nah the Jima fight is high A tier. Reason being is that when we enter their reality marbles, its stupidly easy to burn through them. Dragons Resurrection makes a joke out of it.
One of the reasons I love the 3jima fight is because the dialogue exchange beforehand shows that for them, this is not them testing their skills; they were genuinely angered and hurt by Kiryu's comments about wasting away and as such, they don't hold back in their fight, and when they lose, this was their very last valuable possession being taken away from them: their pride.
I found Bryce slightly better than Ebina but I thought he sucked as an antagonist and his boss theme is, so dull. I'd rather fight Ebina than Bryce again as End of Denial is so fucking good. That said, there's a lot of narrative failures with the game that I hope RGG doesn't do again.
Never let bro cook again
Can you do enemy/sujimon tier list next?
I agree with pretty much everything, even down to Ebina being a flawed villain who just needed more screentime to tie all those tropes together into an actual character. However, I feel like the game did build him up as an actual threat like his actual fight shows, at least when read between the lines. He's shown to have climbed the ranks of the Seiryu while gaining respect from even cutthroat Yakuza, he's shown to be isolated and brutal and when his tattoo is revealed, to me that just indicates dedication to his ideals.
I think he'd be A tier and with more screentime he'd have been an easy S tier.
Also Narasaki should be B, the fight is cool and entertaining, even if he's a clown (partly because he is a clown. (especially with the fucking shark in B)
The squid is also a great fight, except on normal, it's so painfully easy on normal, while being great on a higher difficulty
I really enjoy how different Ichiban and Kiryu's bosses felt. Kiryu definitely had the more "grounded" crime drama Yakuza. While Ichiban was taking on giant monsters and Hawaiian gods.
I would also add the fight in the fashion show in the Barracuda's HQ, it have intros, unique music and an unique enemy the MC.
I hate Bryce with every fiber of my being. So much so that I ended the fight with a rocket to his face.
In my opinion, Kiryu's final chapter is better than Ichiban's final chapter in every aspect. The Millennium Tower long battle and Ebina are simply way cooler and more emotional than generic Nele Island and Bryce
