Solitude - Yakuza 4 (Extended)

[@yurckiy4097]

- You must come ALONE to a construction site with an ENTIRE CLAN of angry thugs anticipating to kill you. They are armed with pistols, UZIs, shotguns and all kinds of melee weapons. Also the whole site is a damn labyrinth where thugs have dozens of opportunities to ambush you. - Ok, but what's the catch?

[@ZooberWezeeKenzan]

My thoughts exactly

[@tombraiserzombie2581]

The catch is that each section is marked by a mini boss of increasing difficulty (and bs fighting style). Then, just before the confrontation with Katsuragi, you have to fight all of them all once

[@eltrolle1809]

Kiryu thought he might die in Yakuza 3 before going to Touto hospital, but in here he's just like fuck it and ruins everybody's day in Kamurocho Hills.

[@princetchalla2441]

@@eltrolle1809 he realized they still ain’t shit compared to all the previous stuff they put him through, proven when he had to beat Engrishman before fighting Mine.

Pros: you get tons of EXP Cons: everyone is trapped there with you

[@Soki7000]

I always loved this; just you and Kiryu finally reunited and ready to take on the entire Ueno Seiwa.

[@curixthewolf3153]

Was I the only one who got massive Megaman X 4 and 5 vibes from this track?

[@captaincanada3541]

The thing I love the most about this fight is it’s basically just a formality, Katsuragi knows for a fact Kiryu will decimate the entire clan. He just wants him to be a little out of breath when they meet for his own sake.

[@arsenal4739]

Funniest thing is that Kiryu was barely out of breath when he met Katsuragi. Crushing the Hakuho Clan was far more tiring than the Ueno.

[@Sockren]

i was kinda expecting a katsuragi boss fight but then i remembered hes not the same assassin he was in 85. dude was a pure coward today

[@arsenal4739]

@@Sockren tbf Katsuragi was always a coward. He doesn’t have any fighting ability. He’s more likely to punch a wounded opponent rather than get into a legit fight at all. Besides, he escaped nicely in 85 cause rubber bullets and pure luck. What idiot thinks to just shoot perfect headshots rather than shoot everyone in their respective wounds? That guy was a pure lucky coward with no brain.

[@zura8879]

@@Sockren He always was. He had to setup Saejima because he don't have the balls or strength to get anything done himself or climb the ranks by himself. And even after the hit, he had to keep using Shibata and Munekata to get things done and eventually manipulate Yasuko and Arai into getting rid of the "problematic" ones. He was never a strong or brave person, he was always a coward who relied on pulling the strings from behind the scenes to get things done his way.

[@Sockren]

@@zura8879 the hit was done as a way to make the sasai family fall as it could've been another family in the same league as the dojima and shimano family. he may not be the strongest but he was smart and bold with his moves (unlike today where he will just hide behind a clan if things go bad)

[@Fodimin]

I can't get over how this dude dismantled an entire clan on his own in about 30 mins

[@chenjinguo]

Same here and I am looking in Katsuragi point of view and its o o right....this beast is coming he does not care about disadvantage that i pulled off on him lol K...this guy is a legend and a real deal...mennn prepare for a real war...beast is coming o o!!!!!

[@jinthekingkazama1159]

This OST is called "Solitude" because Kiryu is alone against everyone else.

[@chainsawplayin]

no, it's because 100 guys are surrounded by Kiryu.

[@mohamedelkayal8871]

Kiryu vs an entire clan alone

[@chenjinguo]

Katsuragi : o o Kiryu : ........ Moment of epicness and the Dragon is coming for entire Ueno 🤣🤣🤣....

[@bricecarter196]

The beginning of this song gives me chills and goosebumps. This was one of the longest fight in Yakuza history lol. It was great.

[@chenjinguo]

Same that beginning for me it said....the legend(Kiryu) is here and u gonna witness what real strength and power is lol well I look at this in Katsuragi point of view lol and if I am him gonna feel like...Damn real beast gonna show what he is made of here o o!!!!!

[@Y00bi]

​@@chenjinguo I unironically love how this is treated in Yakuza 4 as completely fucking normal for Kiryu. Katsuragi fully expected him to be able to reach the rooftop.

[@Doopus]

holy shit was this fight crazy good tho i genuinely saw people saying "get ready for the longest fight in ur life" and it was just immensly fun to fight the ueno seiwa family and their reused moveset mini-bosses

[@nagareboshi4051]

Kinda surprised that this track is composed by the same guy who did Baka Mitai,battle for the dream,and other songs from yakuza 5 (and a few in 4),Mitsuharu Fukuyama is honestly so fucking talented, he Deserves to come back in future titles of this series because I'd argue he's just as good as Hidenori Shoji in the composing department...hopefully he still works at Sega.

we're getting out of kamurocho hills with this one

[@trickmaster5632]

Not only does this bring back Yakuza 2 vides with climbing the tower again but the snow falling as the music fades in slowly. such a good song and long battle.

[@Mondo_Mondee]

4 had so many bangers. Love this battle theme. 2:40 is my favorite part. Gives me chills. It’s SO GOOD!!

Why is Akiyama doing the 🤨 emote in thumbnail

[@KaitoThwBruiser]

Akiyama: "Ayo how come Kiryu got a unique long battle theme and not me"

[@chenjinguo]

Best long battle theme for me in 4. Kiryu is coming for Katsuragi. Thanks to u for extend this. Now, I can enjoy this for a long run ^o^.

[@Kobra18721]

1:55 is my favorite part 🔥

[@StarTROPIX]

one of the best long battle themes in the series for me.. the cherry on the top is that it starts snowing when the fight starts, so fricking awesome!!!

[@diegordi1394]

Song that plays before quality script moment

[@messmermusicals1367]

Feels almost incomplete with those charging Yakuzas screams

[@YaMexicanBoy]

2:41 sounds like a Chrono Trigger song, Secret of The Forest, to be precise

[@demar2887]

From 2:50 up to 3:30 I love that whole part.

Woow amazing thank you

[@eltrolle1809]

Yakuza 4 was my first time ever playing as Kiryu and having this as my first true long battle is absolutely amazing.

Damn you must have been confused lol

I spent more time vibing on the pause screen then fighting in this battle.

[@danielortiz4591]

That guy with the shotgun just kept downing me while the rest held me in place. Was really annoying but funny.

Love these solos

[@lixtrix9897]

2:53 I enjoy this song I really like the parts where the song kinda screams I don’t really know what am on about but I like this song a lot I also like this part 0:28

[@zedge352]

aka song that plays as kiryu beats up an entire clan because he has nothing better to do

[@crazybroccoli2350]

Truly a long battle
