[@user-cb4vt3qm3j]

Saejima is a goddamn bulldozer. It doesn't really come across in this vid where everyone is level 99 so he just kinda hits hard, but on the first walkthrough, where your level is closer to his, he all but one-shots everyone who looks at him funny. Majima does all his acrobatics and fancy moves and gets off about 40% of your characters' HP, while Saejima just punches two-three times and you scramble for revives. It's scary.

[@NathanCassidy721]

Majima: "SOMEBODY CALL AN AMBULANCE! ..." 8:02 "... But not for ME. Nyeh heh heh!"

[@drunkdrag0n]

I just realised that Saejima and Majima's blade kill tag team is strikingly similar to what Kiryu and Akiyama pull off in the previous game. Kiryu/Saejima lands the punch and Akiyama/Majima lands the kick. Goes to show incredible teamwork.

[@jamesnorman9160]

It's the best imo. With Kiryu and the final boss you knew it was coming, but with these guys they just walk up and start fighting you, and they gave enough time so that we can see more chemistry between Majima and Saejima in their fights. Blade Kill is so fucking cool

[@bryanreyes7382]

@@gaminggoddess85 true. To be fair, he was a hobo in Yakuza 4 when he came to Kamurocho to find Goro and since there were cops around, he went underground and befriend with hobos until he finally reunited with Goro.

I didn't play the previous Yakuza games when I played Like A Dragon so I couldn't appreciate how terrifying it was to be fighting Majima. It only took me a dozen failed attempts before I finally beat him.

[@yuripetrenko7910]

I overcame this bossfight yesterday and let me tell you, don’t skip the grinding before this. I was level 44 and both saejima and majima were level 50 and dont tell me that I shouldve done the coliseum because I finished all floors and still was under level. I lost once and then won but had to use at least 4 medkits to revive allies and saeko’s only job was to heal everyone, nothing else.

I scraped by at lvl 37 but it took forever

[@huzai7083]

I feel like majimas fight had so much potential, like you know when kiryu switches stances in his fight, they totally could have done that with majima, so like first he would go thug, then breaker, then saijima joins in the fight, and then majima would slugger, and then at the right moment, ichiban and majima would exchange bat clashes, as if there were using swords and it would be like qte, and then the final swing would be like a button mash sequence, and if you won it would show the bat getting knocked out of his hands and then he would say something like "HAHAHA THIS IS GETTING FUN" and that's when he goes mad dog majima

The reason why this is in an RPG format is because it's stated that Ichiban loves playing the Dragon Quest series (R.I.P Akira Toriyama) ever since he was young, so this is the way he imagines how he has all of his battles. It's new and it's also cute
