The music in the disco is so wonderfully 80's, I love it.

Yeah, gamey as fuck, like I mentioned. I don't think everything has to necessarily make that much sense, of course, but it is what it is. Good to know there's a way to transfer money between the two later on!
In before Japan expert neogaf shows up ;p
It's just a way to describe a man's face using a taste (of sauce).
His face looks like a taste of soy sause --> He got soy sauce face.
Someone who has a oily face--> Mayo face.

Yup, happened to me too.
And that happened when I started Y5 with Y4 savedata in the console.

Brawler is supposed to be Kiryu's main style in all the other Yakuza games, only much less refined and much more aggressive because he's younger. It's also the more "balanced" style. Beast mode also has some awesome heat moves.

Little kid can't wait to read his new video game instruction manual on the way home. I love the writing in these games so much
The song plays inside Sushi Gin, which really doesn't make sense timeline-wise since the song was introduced in a substory in Yakuza 2.

This is actually the first Yakuza game where everything is tied to the Money. In all previous games, Money was used to buy stuff and do stuff while upgrading your abilities used points which you gained from gaining exp or completing training.
You should at least invest in the bases for every style, but you'll probably have a preferred style which you'll want to max first which is okay. It's entirely up to you how you want to go about it, but earning money shouldn't be a problem. You can earn enough to upgrade all the styles fully and then some, but it'll require a bit of a grind. It's worth it though.
I would at least pick up the health and other stat boost perks in every style, but money is pretty easy to come by so I've just been getting everything, but buy for my preferred style first.

Money= exp
You will end up with enough money to buff all fighting styles so shate them evenly as much as you could

Thank you!
Are any substories missable? This seems like it could be a good late game reference to clean up things you might miss

Interesting. Does Kiryu have a similar item?

After playing chapter 3 intro and seeing Majima, i'm wondering what the hell happened to make change him change in personality so much. I read his back story but I thought that would make a man go crazy lol
I read when the game was first coming out that Majima and Kiryu had different personalities before the start of the first game. Majima was the calm and collected one and Kiryu was the hot head brash guy

My interpretation is that Kiryu's
10 year stint in prison
No idea about Majima, tho. Haven't finished the game yet.

Hah, no, sorry, I mean there's a little kid in this game who can't wait to read his manual on the way home. It's one of the Sub Stories

I thought that was common knowledge I mean if you played the first game at least. i don't know the ending of this game.
I wonder if it leads up to the first game beginning but that's like 6 years later since the game starts in 1995 and then 10 years later its 2005

Something interesting I read that Akira Yuki, Ryo Hazuki, and Kazuma Kiryu were all born in 1968.
I wonder if any of them would ever cross paths with each other but I don't think they all live in the same universe though sadly.

So the minigame that has been really effective at making me feel terrible at the game so far has been the rush master's boxing matches. I can't even beat the 10k yen drunk dude. I've tried dodging to the side but his moves track with you, I've tried dodging back but he moves too far forward, and I've tried blocking but it triggered kiryu's L1 dodge mechanic for the first hit and I got knocked down by the second. I've had to take a break from it because I kept fucking it up. Is there something I'm missing, or do I just suck at dodging?

I randomly got one from a Dream Machine, so I didn't have to go hunting for it. I didn't have too much trouble finding the drinks when I saw where the stores are. I had to fight a bunch of people on the way though.
Wonderful game.
As somebody who's played the English language games, can somebody recommend something like a "History of Yakuza" game series video so that I can catch up on the older games? Particularly the spin-off games as apart from watching the trailers when everybody else did on here, I don't really know anything about them.
Did they ever confirm an English language release of Kiwami?

I just ran around in a circle around him whenever he went to attack, trying to dodge him would just fail at his ram move eveytime.
Super early in chapter 1, spoiler tagging I guess
and I got the rush style. Where is the guy on the map that said to come by that you learned the rush style from? I remember he said a street, but I can't recall it and there's nothing on the map that indicates it.

Wait what? Who or how do you get this. I'm a good way through the story and I haven't been given anything.
make sure you're using X to dodge, hold R1 to face the opponent. dodge when he winds up to attack, it's super easy.

It's a parking lot on the northeast corner of the map. An icon of a person will show up when he's there.
I watched the Giant Bomb quick look and noticed they give you healing items in the Dojima building fight on normal mode. I didn't see anything like that on hard.
What other differences are there? Do you earn more/less money? I'm early on but I'm already at the point where my upgrades cost 30 million, and I get like 300-500k per street squabble.

I've actually seen that before so I don't why I couldn't remember it. Not long until Summer 2017. I know that Sega are interested releasing the other numbered games on PS4 in some way so hopefully we'll get those at some point, even if it isn't via a Kiwami style remake.
