"Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name"-Day is one day away! I wanted to celebrate this game's release with a mix that combined a lot of Kiryu's battle-themes throughout series history. I discovered the series through hearing Independence For Violence by KZbin-surfing back in 2009, and it led me to seeking out more of the series' music, and ultimately had me be a huge fan of the games. So I wanted to reflect on that a bit, with this mix that says "No matter how much you try to erase it, the funk goes on forever more". Here's to you, Kiryu! Welcome back!

This is the best way to explain all of Kiryu in just one song summary, you didn't miss a single game! (or so i like to think lmao)

Thank you! And yeah, I've put in references to almost all of his battle themes (from 0 to 7), as well as Independence For Violence (cause that's the track that initially got me into the series).

@gvgkid 10 ай бұрын

Number 1, 2 and 4 are correct! Number 5 is correct-ish on the basis that it's the chorus melody from the original Receive You, which is also used in the Tech Trance arrange. Number 3 is on the correct game, but incorrect guess on which song(s) you hear.

As a fan of your Funk goes on remix from five years ago. Man i love how this one feels more grand and wiser, but it still keeps the original's energy and you could say *strength*. Also those sneaky reference to Force Addiction, Isolated Fight and Receive you (That last rolling eyes fall surely felt awesome) Keep up the good work and I hope some of these day you could make a remix for Victory Road from Yakuza 5 with vocals cause that song has one of the greatest "anime opening vibes" of all the saga.

It’s crazy how I went from 0-K2, then WENT BACK to the PS2 versions of 1 & 2. I guess that did make the transition to 3-5 easier. From there, it just felt natural. I’m just glad I didn’t give up on playing the rest of the franchise and binged it as much as I did within a year and a half. I’m up to Infinite Wealth and the only other game I haven’t played in English is Dead Souls (which hopefully can be decently emulatable soon enough) and I’ve pretty much enjoyed every game. LJ’s probably my favorite RGG game personally, though. It’s just…damn near perfect.

As lovely as his Kamurocho fight theme in LAD8 being the original, Yakuza 1 PS2 version of Funk Goes On is, I think this is gonna be modded in to replace that. Rather than be JUST a callback to the original, instead have it be primarily a callback to the original, but with callbacks to his entire journey.
