Komaki Bucket List Substory - Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth

[@FazFaz]

Man, every time I hear that sound effect at 00:20 it hit my feels for some reason. spoilers: I genuinely wanted this to be Kiryu's actual last game, I wanted a good proper goodbye with older characters. Not where he just sees them and thats it. I want him to interact with them, with Haruka. I was genuinely disappointed when they barely did that, and still kept Kiryu alive after all that

[@duke9260]

Hope it gets a big backclash they can't pull this shit again

[@BuryTheLight-tds]

Didn't Haruka literally visit him in the hospital, plus I'd rather he get treatment for cancer and die peacefully than something else

[@manuvirajkhare]

I think RGG Studios is worried that if they actually take out Kiryu permanently, old fans will be furious and future LAD games won't have sales as good. I personally think Kiryu should have had a good heart to heart with everyone on his bucket list, before finally bowing out permanently.

[@DVAcme]

Komaki respecting Kiryu's anonymity but fully admitting Kiryu was his best pupil had me in tears. There's no bond that compares to that of a master and his pupil. Komaki was almost a much a dad to Kiryu as Kazama was.

[@mystermothman3092]

3:30 "....I see. Live long enough, and you're bound to have a secret or two..." Komaki's too wise, he knew the whole time.

[@hartantoanggoro]

Komaki already know but he keep it secret because he respect Kiryu identity.

[@9f81rsd00]

It's good though that Komaki found out his pupil's still fighting on. And he still got the last duel with him too.

[@BenetteG]

Komaki must be a walking fossil. He already looked 40 years older than Kiryu even way back in Y1. He's probably a hundred years old by Y8.😅

when he offered to fight me for the last time i refused because i had to change from desperado job to the dragon of dojima then i came back and accepted.

[@sergiocable]

I refused to change Kiryu to another job tbh. Fighting style is unmatched and also feels out of character to have another fighting style. Everyone else I don’t really care but Kiryu will remain in the dragon style in my gameplay.

I mean c'mon the woman's been freakin' waiting for years...also that Tatara channel thing really blowed the cover of Kiryu, and Kiryu with just a differwnt hairstyle got people confuse him is just another way of lazy writing. Wish they could've let him talk to some of the characters.alongside our boy Akiyama And also in the main story, like what was Kiryu smoking when making him the future carrier of the Yakuza underworld?

[@Hilversumborn]

I’m getting emotional with all these bucket list stories.

[@IrishCoffeee]

I wanna be honest guys I started crying when Komaki appeared and even more when his theme kicked in. Kiryu and Komaki always had THAT special bond. I never thought I'd see Komaki again tbh but when they fought for the last time, damn.. Too old men sharing respect and love for each other... I realised, that's it, that's the last fight, the end of an era. It took me back to 2011 when I bought Yakuza 3 and got immediately hooked. Since then I played every yakuza title and really enjoyed the journey along. Whenever I picked the latest yakuza game it felt like coming home to kamurocho. I was eager to see when Komaki would appear this time. It was pure anticipation. It's like seeing and old friend every few years for more than 13 years and now it's time so say goodbye. 😢

[@DomPeriod]

"I'm sure he'd be very proud of his former student." "He'd say you hadn't changed a bit." Memoirs of a dragon is tearing my heart apart. I cried a little too.

The story can be a bit iffy at times in Infinite Wealth but man, these life link moments with Kiryu's old friends are some of the highlights of the entire series. Nearly every single one were so incredibly nostalgic and emotional. This one, Kashiwagi, and Nakajima especially being my favorites.

[@yyooddaa1570]

legit made me cry

[@daedelous7094]

It was good to see you again old man, still remember my first time seeing you as Majima's thug trainer. Just don't forget you have a grandson out there too.

[@scarymeunster9095]

I do hope that they have some old trainers or their descendants reappear in later games in the Ichiban saga to teach him new techniques like Asakura did in this game. Imagine someone like Tatsu’s granddaughter or Kosuke Komaki giving lessons to Ichiban for different jobs. There’s even some good fits already - the Areshi brothers were famous for kickstarting breakdancing in Osaka, so we’ve got Breaker already, and even other party members could unlock exclusive special moves from masters, like Zhao being able to learn special Chef skills from Bond levels or meeting new NPCs. I think proper masters are the only thing Ichiban’s progress is still missing compared to Kiryu’s growth, and I think they would go a long way in both helping to develop the party’s move sets and the individual members as characters. Imagine Adachi getting mentored by Saejima or Date and learning a new Essence move or something late into an adventure to help rescue Ichiban during a big story climax as the party desperately looks for training to help prepare them. Traveling across Japan to meet old and new allies to get that final edge and reunite with the guy who brought everyone together. Hell, I could even see someone like Eri making a cameo to teach new Kunoichi skills since her old Clerk style was a sort of prototype for it. I think Ichiban and the rest of the party getting some proper one-on-one training with people who have developed uniquely powerful techniques that mesh into their different jobs would be a great way to develop their different personalities and moves. The different masters always end up being really cool characters too, so I would love to see both successors to old ones and new stars teach some cool moves to the Yokohomies.

We will known that by the next future, many it could be possible if we had a forgotten character from SEGA. The protagonist of delinquent that became the champion of Dragon Heat, which is Tatsuya Ukyo. If SEGA announced the Kurohyou game, i believe Tatsuya will be the student of Kiryu cause every move what Kiryu from the past. Agree or not, im hype up if SEGA was really going to do it.

[@iced8erg]

if anything, as the main character who starts the franchise, in case rgg finally want to make a 'thanks for all this time until now and goodbye FR permanently', just make it classic good ol brawler gameplay. Ichi and friends can continue in rpg style as long as they want for all i care

The life link is actually the final send-off to Kiryu's old life as his death approaches. Considering the star of the show is Kiryu and Ichiban so the game literally is the passing of the torch between two dragons. However the way I see it, might be the final of the series too since Kiryu is retired permanently and Ichiban wanted to live a normal life.

Komaki: Is probably 100 years old* Bacchus: Ages less but is nowhere to be seen* I guess Japan's past economy is what kept ol' Bacchus still kicking around.
