Top 25 Dynamic Intros + Action Sequences In The Yakuza Series [2021]

[@HairyJuan]

I like how every Yakuza 7 intro is Ichiban getting his ass kicked

[@udinamursona1064]

you could say that in the beginning half of yakuza 0 that was the same thing with kiryu, yakuza 7 is ichiban's start as a yakuza legend just like kiryu in 0

Kiryu no-selling Ichiban's punch to the head should have been much higher, I have never been so hyped in my life

[@LukeyMia4]

Dude just goes BEAST RESIST GUARD BEAST RESIST GUARD

[@LAK_770]

Totally agree dude. At that point I yelled something like “LET’S GOOO” or maybe “KIRYU!!!!!” so loud that the dog came running upstairs barking his head off. It was like 1am, I think my girlfriend almost went and got the baseball bat lol

[@kozie78]

The Komaki Knock Back after is such a nice touch too

[@CMCommie]

Beast block animation into Komaki Parry into Kiryu's signature line is one of the hardest intros in existence

[@italianfrogpuncher7024]

“MASSIVE MAN” will always be my favorite introduction lmao

[@swapniljoshi99]

I have a special place in my heart for Yuta's dynamic intro, which is just him getting *obliterated* by Kiryu's nasty haymaker.

[@Smokeyourselfstraighttohell]

And still fucking standing

[@mokadelic4037]

Majima vs Ibuchi has to be one of the coldest intro I've ever seen in my life.

[@hackingtuturugate5557]

Kuroiwa is a solid number 1 for me too, honestly maybe my favorite RGG boss fight full stop. The atmosphere, the music, the story leading up to it, the fight itself across multiple locations, I've never wanted to beat a boss as badly as I wanted to beat Kuroiwa, Judgment is peak RGG for me, and that's saying a lot.

[@zapperil]

If we add Lost Judgment , Yagami vs Soma should be in

[@Darkalanche]

Cant forget Tesso and Akutsu as well

[@LaVitaNouva]

@@Darkalanche The final Kuwana fight too

[@go1dkeyYT]

We even have regular RK members fight intro, that better than many in this list

[@yasdask]

Lost Judgment is a gem when it comes to intros.. or combat in general! Although it wasn't yet out to be fair

[@yourguysheppy]

5:30 This is the exact moment I closed the KZbin video I was watching and bought Yakuza 0 a few years ago

[@jelado6155]

Pledge of Demon is just so cold.

[@剣聖葦名一心初代目葦]

12:51 this is definitely Kiryu vs Shibusawa 2.0

[@frootloop3568]

Yeah but Kiryu beat his ass solo so not really

[@MugdhaMahdiShams]

6:40 This will be the actual Kiryu vs Shibusawa 2.0 in the future

[@LowIntSpecimen]

​@MugdhaMahdiShams Wouldn't Kiryu vs Shibusawa technically be Ryoma vs Takechi 2.0

[@ibrownzzrule6389]

The #1 spot totally deserves!!!!! THAT FIGHT WAS SO INSANE AND SCARY! Kuroiwa is just a monster…

[@JetstrussySam]

Kiryu VS Kuze in the sewers should’ve been higher imo It is one of the hypest fights in the entire game

[@320speed]

Mine vs Kiryu in Yakuza 3 better be on here. That definitely should be higher. The Fly remix is so epic!!!

[@qorpse]

Mine is so underrated. Definitely one of the better Yakuza final bosses

[@UlwanStyle]

Ryuji Goda Final Scene got me goosebump tho

[@SpringDoom3829]

12:50 STANDING HERE, I REALISE !

[@Rome0313]

Real

[@realkingofantarctica]

I would personally add Someya's final battle from 6, plus Majima from 4 for the "KYODAIII!" alone.

[@hammelfleisch99]

Thanks to everyone for the comments and for watching my Video!! Im glad that yakuza got the hype now it deserves. I will definitlely make an updated version after infinite wealth, because lost judgment and gaiden also had some nice ones and i wanted to wait for more which would definitlely change the rankings. Thanks a lot :)

[@nigellittle6844]

This right here reminded me how much I love this crime drama series

[@p3p07]

theres drama? /jk

[@Spy-jm6hs]

I love Majima's intro in Kwamii 2. Usually Majima smiles and is all crazy like but there he has no emotion.

[@futer1987]

Can’t believe Shinada vs Daigo wasn’t included

[@valalphak]

Kiryu VS Daigo in Y4, looks sick

[@dokjakim45]

Strongest Protagonists in my Opinions: 1. Kazuma Kiryu (But On Strength He's at the same level as Taiga) 2. Taiga Saejima 3. Goro Majima (You Obviously Know it) 4. Masayoshi Tanimura (His Parry would be a Problem for all of his Opponents) 5. Shun Akiyama On Par with Takayuki Yagami (LEGS) 6. Masaharu Kaito 7. Ichiban Kasuga 8. Shinada Tatsuo

[@Giovfunny]

Yeah that's pretty much right

[@mixmastervin8846]

0. Kenshiro

[@colewlrd1317]

Saejima is stronger than kiryu physically tbh. He literally stopped a car from moving

[@mixmastervin8846]

@@colewlrd1317 keep in mind there are a bunch of different sub-types of strength. Saejima has a very clear edge in explosive power, but considering the fact Kiryu kinda jist casually ran through the entire Ueno Seiwa, he has his own advantages in other strength categories that'd put them relative to each other.

[@illusoghiaccio]

Kiryu = Technique Saejima = Power

[@shroudedenigma8607]

Kiryu Vs Mine is criminally low 😮

[@lyricsghost2547]

Agreed 100% It was the very first one and it's so hype. So are Sewers Kuze, Sugiuchi, LAD Kiryu and Lao Gui imo. And I'm bummed there's no Aizawa, no Kido, no Arai, no Ishin Okita, no Y4 Daigo, no Shinada vs Daigo, no Kuze 4th fight and no "KYODAAAAI!!!". I wholly respect his opinion though, and Ibuchi deserves to be as high as it is here. Say whatever about the boss fight itself, the intro is amazing. The fact that people have so different takes on these and how it's difficult for them not to choose a determined intro spot for, not a top 10 or 5, but a top 25...? Says a lot about how amazing they are.

[@snowgoose0571]

[@lykosvon9142]

Looking back I feel bad for how hard Akiyama got bodied in that first intro 😭

[@finnegan9]

I would argue that Kiryu vs Nishiki should be #1 or #2, and Kiryu vs Ryuji should be #1 or #2

[@audiobook5860]

nah, i think the no 1 in the vid is the best

[@bourne.]

Nothing can beat Kiryu vs Majima DI in the coliseum

[@Moooras]

Yagami vs Kuroiwa dynamic intro is one of the wildest things I've ever seen in any game. Well deserved 1st place

[@KisekiFan]

how old is Kiryu by Yakuza 7? 50 something maybe, and yet he still kicks ass, really want to know his secret, lol

[@JB-pk8gd]

He’s 50. He’s also just fucking built differently.

HOW DID THEY MAKE JUDGEMENT LOOKS SO REAL WTF

[@mrkrabssoldmysoulfor6294]

1:36 *Goro Majima vs MASSIVE MAN

[@technicrain0]

I prefer Mine's intro more than Iwami's intro tbh

[@oFiiREo]

Icl I think Yagami v Kuroiwa first fight intro was better. After just confirming him being the killer, Yagami being like “leave this to me” to Kaito and the high kick towards each other was just so perfect

[@cutesquirrelsdontcry]

the final one just looks wayyyy cooler

[@jNdeeeeee]

no majima in the colosseum in kiwami 2?

[@markplayer2618]

Also the other intros from the final bosses of yakuza 4

[@shingkung3974]

they have no action sequences, can’t get the bonus mark

[@aisladov]

Iwami's dynamic intro is criminally underrated

[@doilo7304]

daigo vs shinada shouldda had a spot here too tbh

[@LumenSage5]

Nobody is gonna talk about how badass Majima's reaction is to dodge bullets?

[@I_love_bread_and_Hungry_Jacks]

In terms of difficulty to pull off the said dynamic intro, Majimbo's intro with Dio is definitely the hardest, no question. The man dodged & deflected multiple bullets.

[@fatherthundercat]

bro called ibuchi, dio😭

[@flameofavernus]

some of these rankings are nuts to me but i always think of the context and emotion behind the intro rather than just on how cool the intro is by itself on accident

[@sujulius3230]

Same. Some high ranked judgment intros are really cool, but for the context and emotion, I would say the intro such as kiryu vs shibusawa should be higher than those.

[@flameofavernus]

@@sujulius3230 dude kiryu vs iwami should be higher too jfc

[@yousifkhalid1826]

Majima in yakuza 2 was so fucking amazing

[@valalphak]

For me favourite is Kiryu vs Daigo at Y4. Its looks badass imo

[@manaosconuva]

Besides the fight itself, for me the coolest intro of them are Kiryu vs Kuze on the Sewers and later against Shibusawa, none of the other games gave me the same goosebumps than those 2 damn fights (and i thought the first time we fight Kuze was cool af already)

[@DehdLock]

Arguably couldnt agree more (with number 1)

[@brandoncook8300]

That Kasuga vs Kiryu has me rolling everytime

[@DarkLinkVortex]

kiryu vs kuze in the sewer was amazing for me

[@snowgoose0571]

dont sleep on mine intro

[@SoFarSoGoodSoWhat14]

Yakuza 4 gets a lot of flack but damn I forgot how badass some of the dynamic intros from 4 are, Tanimura busting the handcuffs with the gunshot

[@carltonbaker9228]

Tendo has an excellent theme

[@vinnu.__.07]

WHY IS KIRYU V/S MAJIMA FROM YAKUZA KIWAMI 2 NOT IN TOP 25!😭

[@ArealiusCantonius]

Someya’s first theme sounds like Lao Gui’s theme.

[@55555Fighters]

mine should be no.1

[@LudenTK]

swap #1 and 3, i can get behind it

[@ThePingouin2ter]

Nice list. Kuze in the sewers should be higher though.

[@daedelous7094]

You really cannot top the Judge Eyes of the Kuroiwa intro.

[@dck6381]

Bro you cant put best ones lastly 💀💀💀💀

[@ArealiusCantonius]

But Mine’s intro at 24 is a disgrace, his intro is what started the tradition of bad ass intros.

[@loganford3708]

Lao gui should definitely be higher

[@carlosdejesus2153]

mine intro is criminally low 😭

[@k1llswitch_exe12]

I'm biased the Y7 Kiryu boss fight should've been top 3 at least

[@cogahan]

21 (2:17) has to be the best one

[@terminator7578]

Why bro didn't put Kiryu vs Daigo in Yakuza 4 and Kiryu vs Aizawa in Yakuza 5 in this list lol Those are easily better then most of the once shown in this list
