For some reason, I hate how that woman treat PC Fighter though.

True, you don't see a lot of badass male MCs these days. Old, classic games definitely have a good bunch of them.

[@gaminggoddess85]

It must just be a changing of the times. Big manly bastards like Kenshiro, Guts and Jotaro used to be all the rage in Japan, but today's "Black Swordsmen" and Jojos are wispy waifs that a girl could break over their knee. It almost seems like a statistical impossibility that Kiryu and his gang of old fart friends are as popular as they are.

Almost Perfect. I believe Kiwami 1 was already made when this game came out. So they could have mentioned Kiwami 1's Substory. Making it 11 Years since they last met. 2005-2016. Also btw I haven't watched 5, 6 and 7 yet. But I can tell they re-used a lot of stuff for Kiwami 2. I don't want spoilers for this but what's this new Majima Kentetsu like? Same shit but different Villains? I so wish Kiwami 2 had Conversation. Seeing this now because they haven't referenced Kiwami 1. Maybe they truly should have waited on making the Kiwamis and just finish 6. Kiwami 1 and Kiwami 2 would have been a lot better if they had done 6 and then work on em hard and not try to shorten their time with it. I don't know if Kiwami 1 would have been in Dragon Engine but boy would it still be good. Maybe they could have put Fighting Styles in Kiwami 2 if they did that. It would be cool if they could do a Kiwami 1 and Kiwami 2 Reboot. And now that I'm thinking of that maybe that's what Cyberpunk should have too.

This is one of the side quests that made me think about how these characters have aged. They’ve grown, had children, had regrets, lost people, and are at the end of their stories. It’s somewhat sad but also hopeful. I know Kiryu is in Yakuza 7 but this game was really about endings.

[@theequalizer694]

I bet kiryu spends his days at pocket circuit racers tofu restaurant when he’s off camera in 7

[@Hylanvahr]

So cool and touching to see this after playing through Yakuza 7 and finishing the Dragon Kart subquests. Things turned out pretty nicely for this family! I think Mr. Fighter regaining his confidence for his son's sake is a great inspiration to all struggling fathers everywhere.

Damn, this substory hit me the feels... I can't imagine myself without my dad. Yakuza sure does know how to touch our hearts in every way, as with a son-father bound, a loved one bond, a brother best friend... This is why i love RGG so much.

[@vinnt_tnniv]

seeing fighter's life is a rollercoaster: it's happy to see a 30 year old man entertaining kids with his heart it's sad to see a 47 year old man without a family, and a career destroyed by a mistake It's sad to see an 60 year old man not be able to talk about his past after throwing everything he had for his wife who nows denies who he was it's extremely satisfying to see a 60 year old man reliving his old golden years to tell his story and legacy of children's happiness to his kid, and create bonds with him

Davis Bowe his First name is Pocket Middle is circuit Last name is fighter

[@SMAXZO]

Well, we know his last name is Fujisawa because the tofu shop is called Fujisawa Tofu.

[@bluesnake1713]

Well I suppose the last name is a start.

[@jiguneversaw3495]

nope, he's in yakuza 7 as well. his name is fujisawa, he runs dragon kart

[@AkaiZero]

Probably something close to Bunta since his successor named Takuma, Takumi Initial D's reference. My guess is Genta Fujisawa.

The only sub-story that almost made me cry seeing the fighter being old not living his best life.but a very heartwarming story of how he used to be a good influence on kids.son wanting to talk to his dad more often.

This and the fact that you can see Pocek Circuit Fighter in the Today is a Diamond cutscene are the little things that make me love yakuza

After finishing all the substories with pocket circuit fighter in Yakuza 0, I ended up growing to relate to him with how anxious I am in what the future has for me like how he wasn't sure if he should retire to work for his parents at a boring tofu shop or stay with the kids and enjoy his job despite his pay. Seeing him as a father growing a backbone for his kid rlly made me cry ngl

Kiryu's probably been staying in shape by exercising regularly too, while Fighter probably lived a much more sedentary life after his Pocket Circuit days.

Koleck Suneater fighter isn’t fat he just didn’t age well

[@badjuju8624]

ccbib Well you can be out of shape and not be fat s'what I was getting at. I doubt Fighter's been hitting the gym in preparation for some tattooed douche kicking in his door looking to make a name for himself.

[@chaotic-overlord2841]

If we're talking about what they actually said though, the words used were "around 30 years", this game taking place in 2016 or around that, wouldn't add up to even close to 30 years, it'd be just over 10. They're talking about when they first met, or the writers of this didn't regard the Pocket Racer story in Kiwami as canon since it wasn't in the original anyway. Either way, they're talking about the events of 0 in that moment.

[@AesculapiusPiranha]

@@chaotic-overlord2841 They hadn't planned Pocket Circuit in Kiwami at this point. Its an obvious mistake.
