[@-MA2-]

What makes Kuze so good, is how he's a real person. He isn't a Herculean god with unparalleled physical strength like Kiryu or Amano, he really does have the build of a boxer or UFC fighter, and it's his knowledge of the fight that allows him to go toe to toe with Kiryu and escape relatively unscathed. He is also a reflection of Kiwami Kiryu, in design especially, with their shared belief that they must follow through with what they desire - Kuze yearning for power, and Kiryu wanting to protect his family. He takes off his jacket to reveal Enma (judge of the underworld) because he believes that he has the right to decide Kiryu's fate, to judge him; but in his final fight with Kiryu, he leaves it on, he knows who Kiryu is, he knows he has lost his right to decide Kiryu's fate and that he has unleashed a 'monster' on the world. It wouldn't surprise me if someone had called Kuze this when he first debuted as a boxer, but like how he 'misjudged' Kiryu at the start of 0, he does so again now - before thinking Kiryu was worthless, and now thinking Kiryu is heartless; when in reality Kiryu's humanity will always keep on the right path. Again Kiryu is a reflection of what Kuze considers a 'real' yakuza, who will do what he must to get what he wants, and for the first time Kuze isn't strictly wrong - he just doesn't understand that what Kiryu wants isn't his own success snd power, but a happy life for the people he loves.

[@swatcccp4673]

I always wondered what his tatoos mean.

[@-MA2-]

@@swatcccp4673 yeah he also has a shiisa on aswell, an Okinawan figure meant to ward off evil and also a sign of extreme loyalty

[@sohrain]

I think Kuze exactly knows what kiryu wants, hence why he calls him a half-ass: with all that power he could be the richest and most respected of his clan but the fact that he doesn’t care appears to kuze as a sign that he doesn’t take the «gokudo» (the name of the Yakuza, meaning way of the extreme or way of power) seriously… and that upsets kuze the most because he’s himself someone who always wanted such power to himself so he could reach to the top. He dedicated his whole existence and his very soul to that.

[@scendrome]

Very in-depth analysis on Kuze. Great job!

[@DTownNash]

And not to mention that Kuze had the biggest impact on Kiryu instilling in him tenacity. He was in a twisted way, a coach and trainer to Kiryu. Even though Kuze was only in one game his influence can be felt throughout the whole series: it's no coincidence that Kiryu dresses very similar to Kuze wearing a Light Grey suit and white snakeskin loafers.

Before any of you say anything about Kuze being a waifu. Kuze still has his morals, his pride as man and as a fighter. So, the technical term is chad.

[@Cobalt_Spartan]

I loved kuze's boss's fights especially his final fight as it shows how much kiryu had grown since the beginning of the game

[@Bluepenguin28]

Kuze is my favourite lieutenant because he was telling the kiryu truth, Kiryu was thinking so noble about Yakuza life, he was thinking like it was a box match and when you lose you have to get out, but you should fight as long as you are alive if you choose that kind of life, just like Majima After he met Kuze he thinks different tho imo

[@finnicvoice4974]

Kiryu thought being a Yakuza is cool, because he saw all the respect Kazama got. He just never saw how ruthless and romanticized a life of crime can be. Kuze was the one who taught him that in the end.

[@rain8767]

Comments are saying that Kuze doesn't have waifus because he doesn't need them. He literally got a tattoo of his waifu on his back.

I really love how Kuze and Kiryu parallel eachother, Kuze's whole being shaped by being a Yakuza, and, to see how easily Kiryu would discard it just to save those close to him, it angers him to the core. And, only after their 4th fight did he starts seeing how, while differing in their beliefs, Kiryu's are just as strong as his own. It also might be a stretch, but the fact that Kuze's fuckin glasses tell a lot about him(First fight him being proud and keeping em on, second fight discarding em because Kiryu's a threat, 3rd fight keeping em on because he still refuses to see past Kiryu's "weak beliefs", and coming off the 4th fight by Kiryu's punch, not to return in the 5th, as he recognises him as a true Yakuza)...God, this game was such a golden trip. I didn't mind fighting him 5 times at all.

Kuse is close to a real yakuza. Kuse couldn't forgive Kiryu, who seemed half-hearted when he talked about how beautiful he was. Because that's not the ideology of the Yakuza. The reason this game is so great is because of Hitoshi Ozawa, who plays Kuse. Everyone must have wondered why Kuse was so scary. You can see why by looking at Ozawa's history. He was originally a famous person in the world of delinquents, and was a person who had plans to go into the world of yakuza as well. he became an actor. This is the reason why it's scary.
