Pocket Circuit Fighter Bucket List Substory - Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth

[@DVAcme]

This hits so much harder when you realize that. with all the people he's lost over the years. Fujisawa-San is actually Kiryu's oldest living friend.

[@OneWingedBadass]

I was going to say Majima but Kiryu knew Fighter longer than Majima.

[@alemonkiki]

Only madafaka who ages real time hahaha

[@EidolonPoet]

@@OneWingedBadasstechnically Komaki would be in the list for longest friend, and winner for oldest

[@TakerWesker1]

He's known at least 2 people longer than Pocket Circuit Fighter. Daigo, who he has known since before the events of Zero, and Kashiwagi, who he's known since joining the Kazama family.

[@Adamassmilk]

Was gonna say. Isn’t Daigo his longest living friend. Even though he sees Diego as his son.

HOW IS THIS JUST A SUB STORY?! IT FELT LIKE A TIMELINE, A ENTIRE CHRONICLE HAPPENED BEFORE MY EYES

[@garujix]

Because it is... all of the sub-story is canon

[@herrforehead3745]

@@amandaputeri2997 exactly so let me keep my hopes

[@KingOfDarknessAndEvil]

​@@amandaputeri2997 Every substory is canon, hence why they're continuously brought back up and referred to in later games

[@amandaputeri2997]

@KingOfDarknessAndEvil sorry to burst your bubble but not every substory is canon, some are, if they are directly linked to the main story, or the one that keeps being brought back few times like this Pocket Fighter. But overall the rest of the mundane substories are just for shits and giggles, this explains why there's a full 180° difference with characters personality in the main story vs substories

[@MidnightPlus1]

19:48. This was it. This is the moment I started to cry like a little bitch. 35 goddamn years have these two known each other, and really, he's one of the only people Kiryu could call a true friend. From being called a virgin by kids, to selling tofu in Hiroshima to support his family, to returning to Pocket Circuit, Kiryu was there pretty much every step of the way. And still holding onto a picture from *1988* is fucking telling that these two truely had an inseparable bond. Only Like a Dragon could make me burst into tears over a goddamn character that you could very well miss entirely.

[@TheRatedOniChannel]

He was the one friend he could make out of all the drama that was the yakuza stuff, he was completely uninvolved, maybe for Kiryu that friendship was untainted by all the drama and death, it was pure friendship from two guys that had a love for pocket racing.

[@DomPeriod]

It was the Komaki one that made me tear up, this one made me sob like a bitch.

[@fuj_i]

He gave Muranaka his real name because he knew he could trust PCF.

[@windows8.170]

Didn't even gave his real identity to Komaki and Sayama lmao

[@dorodo3856]

​@@windows8.170Well, at least Komaki saw through him and just played along

[@KhangNguyen-ij4xh]

@@windows8.170nah, Komaki knew. He literally said “I’ma talk to you because you looks like my no.1 disciple” and kiryu went “sure, cus you look like my master”

[@tailsman2000]

He didn't mind his real name if the people involved werent aware of his Yakuza ties. So PCF and Yuki and Koyuki from Four Shine could know.

[@robert23456789]

And because he has nothing to do with his past

[@TheBuzzard42]

One thing I love about the Pocket Circuit legacy is that it allowed Kiryu one place to truly be innocent. His time at Pocket Circuit and his relationship with the Fighter are one of the only times Kiryu got to enjoy something totally disconnected from the rest of his life and worries.

[@b_is_alive]

Fujisawa got a successful Tofu Shop, successful Dragon Kart, and now revival of Pocket Circuit.. He made it, I am glad Kiryu got to see him one last time, even from a distance.

[@9f81rsd00]

And a family too. To think the guy who also worried about being single would have such awesome character development.

[@ramiking745]

And the dude is looking better after having his family issues resolved in Y6. Man did he look terrible there with all the stress.

[@mryoshi1221]

he carries around a pristine picture of him and kiryu in his pocket and has for almost 40 years 😭😭

[@HYDEinallcaps]

Comes off as more melancholy to me, but you're not wrong.

[@Leefamily146]

If you really think about it kiryu change fighter life for the better. In zero kiryu and fighter became friends. In Kiwami 1 kiryu help fighter to find a successor so that he can get married. In 6 kiryu restore fighter spirit and help fix his relationship with his son which than lead to dragon kart in 7. Gaiden show others following fighter footsteps. Just go to show how much of an impact kiryu change someone life for the better.

[@KhangNguyen-ij4xh]

A shame that Kiryu also has such a tremendous guilt and self-hatred for his yakuza past and his failure as Tojo’s chairman

[@verynaisu]

These two are the best of friends. While Kiryu helped change his life for the better, Fighter gave him the one thing Kiryu never had; innocence and a way to cope/disconnect from the shit he went through for years.

[@Kanamon22]

I gotta be honest here. I don't know why, i really don't know the reason but this whole quest give me so many emotions that at the end i was crying, not full crying but more tears just to call it some tears. This was such a good moment, and so happy that the OG fighter is having a nice life now.

I fucking sobbed my heart out at this substory. RGG is able to develop side joke characters with such depth. The way it serves as a callback to Kiryu's younger days, not to mention PCFs child from 6. They got my ass to cry about the dude who 7 year olds call a virgin in 1988.
