[@Jose-se9pu]

Basically Old Snake, he is dying in a few months, but he is getting treatment because he wants to enjoy what little time he has left (just like Old Snake quits smoking at the end of MGS4), however, this is all we got regarding his reunion with Haruka and Haruto??? Its nice to see him reclaiming his name, or Haruto calling him "grampa", but not showing them interacting with each other feels almost sadistic, like they want us to see Kiryu only suffering. I just hope RGG finally just let him rest in peace, everybody loves Ichiban, and this has been the fourth time we saw Kiryu "for the last time", to the point its starting to feel ike a freaking meme. No "Gaiden 2", no guest appareance in Yakuza 9, just give the man a freaking break already...they can make Kiwami 3 or another remake of 1 (the franchise turns 20 next year) if they want to keep milking Kiryu, but when it comes to the story moving forward, just...leave him rest in peace. He earned it, and Ichiban already proved (twice) he can carry the franchise by himself.

[@BuryTheLight-tds]

If they wanted Kiryu to suffer they could've killed him off with no payoff, they only made him take the cancer treatment and live the rest of his life in peace. He'll probably appear in 9 while he's properly retired, and let him stay that way till he dies. Also, this wasn't the 4th time, this was the 2nd, they already said before Garden's release that IW will be Kiryu's last game as a playable character. I just wish they weren't so adamant about Ichiban carrying the series, he already captured our hearts in 7 with his kindness, why would they be so worried about him carrying the series forward on his own? Is it the old fans that weren't satisfied with 6's ending?

[@tylertheguy3160]

Kinda doubt they're gonna kill Kiryu. If they were going to do that I think now was the time to do it. I think he's probably going to be a supporting character in the next game, beat the cancer, and get a happy ending.

You know what is crazy? In a few years there is a chance of us seeing a grown up Haruto as a protagonist or as a companion for ichiban. Of course i don't think that it will be something as Kiryu past affecting Haruto directly but it could be something else like Haruto as a young man going to Kamurocho and trying to become like his grandfather in the histories he heard about his youth from haruka and the others. Trying to become a legendary fighter and through out the journey he goes through he starts to understand that his grandfather didn't do it for fame or glory but to protect the ones he loves. Knowing learning it Haruto slowly becomes more mature and changes from a reckless delinquent to the image of a wise guy that only fights to protect himself or others.

In a perfect world where that night in 1996 didn't happen, Haruka would have been Kiryu's daughter since it was obvious Kiryu and Yumi loved each other, but this isn't a perfect world and still Haruka became the closest thing Kiryu had to a daughter, and has repeatedly put his life in danger to protect her. So i can't imagine how painful it is for him to stay away, especially now he doesn't have much time left, but at least at the end he can spend time with her and his grandson again.

[@kingsboro1]

Kiryu mistake was returning to the tojo clan after the empty lot incident that was a step backwards not a step forward, and kiryu and nishiki weren't yakuza material. Majima returned because he had to you saw that his tattoo was colored in yakuza 0 that showed how deep he was in.

This ending for Kiryu is the most hopeful that I could think of for the state he's been put in. He spent the entire game and years before just hoping to leave the world with no trouble. Now he truly sees the impact he's had on people and wants to see out his days with them instead of by himself. Kiryu will not let himself die to cancer now, thanks to Nanba, Kasuga and Date, as well as all of his new and old friends. For Kiryu's character, after the horrible twist of his cancer, I feel that this is the best ending. He's finally been put in his place by nature and told to relax. He's still the strongest man on the planet, but his body cannot keep on. His influence has already gone through his kids and friends, most importantly, Kasuga. Now it's time to reap the rewards of his good deeds, which are mightier than he thinks. He'll live on, no doubt. Just wait for Sensei Kiryu in a wheelchair, teaching Kasuga how to Komaki parry.

[@hartantoanggoro]

There are many reasons why they had to make that decision. First of all because of Daidoji who keeps tab around Kiryu so he won't appear to his old friends as when they decided to kidnap and torture Date, they warned Kiryu to not mess around and reminded him that he still dead to the world. Second, the damage of rumors, due to the doxxing of Kiryu from Tatara which widespread through the country about his survival, Kiryu cannot keep himself from public which damaging the company that Daigo and Watase created as the rumors about Tojo clan revival are spreaded like wildfire. Third, Kiryu are a little bit of a coward, he seldom to expressing himself to the others because of many things including the deaths of 2 friends that cares for him in Y1, he always work alone so nobody will be harmed and he always keeping everything on arms length and then push it away when he needs it. As for the old acquaintances, some of them decided to keep Kiryu hidden in their hearts knowing that he "died" so they safe from harm. During events in Y6, Daidoji faction even able to manipulate the laws to kidnap Haruka under the orders from Tsuneo which proven to be the danger to everyone around Kiryu even if they able to defend themselves. If Kiryu take the money in Y6, Tojo will be on rampage because of Kiryu getting shot and Daigo won't be released from prison so nobody will take care of the rampaging Tojo.

concept for a new LAD brawler title- Like a dragon Reborn a game where you play as a teenaged haruto or young adult haruto in which kiryus past comes to haunt his family in which he has to find the secret of his grandfather kiryu kazuma this title will return to the brawler gameplay with a few twist like zero haruto will have four combat styles his main one being a modern style based off akiyama's as i believe akiyama would teach him to defend himself with all the shit he's been through with kiryu fighting style with a modern twist with cranes speed as haruto would be the youngest RGG protagonist its shown in his styles his second style Golden dragon would be a mix of kiryu"s yakuza 0 DOD with Ryuji goda's fighting style twist counter included his third style koi nishiki's fighting style would focus on parrying and with this style he can kick or repel projectiles and his fourth fighting style silver dragon harutos own fighting style based on stories from haruka on how his grandfather fought

I'm just letting you guys know that RGG did not make any effort to make a new model for Haruka. They just fsce swapped and changed the colors of the model of Saeko's sister from 7

[@prithyachan333]

no wonder why her outfit looked so similar

[@muhammadaliffbinmuhammadla7846]

I see Haruka also took her bio father (Jingu) fashion as well.

[@magnaviousyk3118]

They’d better be making the usual old style Gaiden to close Kiryu’s chapter. Then we can start focusing on Ichiban mobing forward

Yeah dude RGG did us dirty with this not even an on screen reunion

[@Mirra2003-f9s]

I'm honestly disappointed. I like Ichiban and i'm fine with the idea of him taking over but they really screwed this ending up. Pretty much everybody wanted to see a Kiryu and Haruka with Haruto reunion,possibly with the orphanage kids too but this? Come on man i even tortured myself to play the turn based combat crap just to get to see Kiryu's story ending and all i got to see was this..... Was it so hard to give this man a final happy ending where you could finally see everybody actually meet him again and see a bit of happiness on his face especially after we saw Gaiden's ending? It would've been bad if Haruka saw him but it's ok that Daigo,Majima and Saejima got to see him lol as if they didn't know he's alive since Gaiden

[@hartantoanggoro]

They can met actually, Daidoji already released Kiryu from their shackles because of Kiryu is sick and he already took care of the damage caused by Ebina and Bryce. The nameplate on the bed is Kiryu Kazuma and not Taichi Suzuki which implied that Daidoji granting a "True Resurrection" of Kiryu so he can be with his beloved in his final moments before his death.

[@Mirra2003-f9s]

@@hartantoanggoro Yeah i know that. I meant they didn't show that as cutscenes in the end. Them meeting again only happened offscreen

[@ishowspeedo2411]

Haruka looks weird bruh she still looks like a fricking kid

[@GuiserGestalt]

throughout the series her face always looked strange to me, felt lesser quality than other faces in the games

[@ishowspeedo2411]

Yeah I sort of see that, her face is too big in this one, or maybe her hairstyle makes it seem like that

[@angelusvastator1297]

Nah but it’s great that she retained her cuteness

[@route77productions]

Her appearance never bothered me, it's her voice. In Gaiden she had a deeper voice and in IW she's back to her 14 year old voice

[@KirbyWii]

I prefer the y3 version because it looks a bit more mature... But in the y4 he goes back to the kid look

[@WarHelmetCombine]

How does Haruto sound older?

[@Fisherman6383]

What happened to kiryu?

[@ytho3505]

Next game, Kiryu will eventually die.

[@kingsboro1]

That would be the best thing or live in isolation kiryu ruin too many lives thanks to his selfishness and cowardness I think they should've killed him off in yakuza 6 it seems like they're giving him a happy ending and that's not right because others did what he did and died, suffer or both.

[@ああ安くしたい]

@@kingsboro1 I had to end Kiryu in Like a Dragon 6... I would have been more impressed if it ended there, but that's a shame... I created a new protagonist while making 7, but I was afraid it wouldn't be a hit, so I forced myself to include Kiryu and watched it every time.

[@sillysalad0]

no way they reused Saekos bond finale outfit from 7 for haruka

[@Devil_Domination]

And... Super Cancer!!!! Kiryu still gonna punch and even harder

[@Hengoed]

Why does it end like that tho? Like mid sound effect? Tbh i thought he got shot by the radiologist. I really thought, and think, that it was the daidoji impersonating a radiologist and shot Kiryu right there. This being why it goes black mid sound effect.

[@dokjakim45]

That basically the to be continued sound, you just exaggerating af lol

no estoy seguro si la decisión de kiryu fue valiente o cobarde , osea haruka merecia saber lo del cancer , la verdad nose que pensar , estoy maldiciendo la pantalla desde que el no abrio esa puerta

[@Tamazudono]

Haruka will be a party member in Yakuza 9

[@bonecollector5]

Just finished it today and i'm so annoyed with this post credit scene. Zero explanation as to the kiryu/daidoji standing. Did they just officially release him and they are just hoping he'll keep their secrets? And then on top of that we don't actually get the haruka reunion??? This sucked ass...

[@Undacted3]

If i was to guess i would say you are on the money with them hoping he keeps their secrets. Makes no sense keeping him hidden now his idenity is out there.

[@lakibody]

Next game would be haruto becoming a brawler just like his grandpa😊

[@danmoua7686]

😅 Wha da faq?!? 🎉❤ Just let them meet or like huh let Haruka teach him a lesson or at nag him for doing things when he's much older n unhealthier due to his cancer. 🥹😭 Or atleast let him officially die by Haruka n his other kids side 😢

[@Gypsytony416]

Considering he’s not in the hospital I’m gonna assume there’ll be one final scene of all of them together before they fully finish with kiryu’s story

​@@wolfder6661 "hate to break it to ya" bro this is the last scene of the game that happened after the lifelink event. Do you really expect that the Daidoji won't off Date after doing all those for Kiryu? Pretty obvious that the people that Kiryu comfortably revealed his identity doesn't know about his rich Yakuza history (Yuki and the PCS guy) while Akiyama is an exception since he's Akiyama.

cant help but dislike most of direction this game took, yakuza 6 was his swan song and skipped almost all characters past tiny cameos like majima and daigo.... then GAIDEN actualy looked like good farewel game is around the corner and now this- 1 character per game basically and most of the times its 5 minutes max cutscene with kyriu hiding in next room... GOD they dropped the ball on this im sorry but they did

[@coreywilson7326]

What kind of logic is this and he's sick dummy

[@kwea9725]

As if the story was only the Kiryu segments. This is a perfect concussion of Kiryu's arc in my opinion too, for all the games he has thought his life wasn't worth anything, in this game he finally learns how to live. You don't need a shitton of cameos just to do that. Gaiden was only a taste of that.
