(Zombie Majima is hilarious.) It gives the system a wonderful sense of purpose. Others may require you to reach certain ranks, then defeat specific incarnations of Majima like Zombie Majima. But super-powered skills like Time of Yinglong, which Exhausts all Heat in exchange for keeping the gauge from decreasing for a certain time period, is only unlocked after reaching SSS Rank and fighting Majima four more times after that. It is easy to get a skill like Dragon Kick Reborn, as all you need to do is fight Majima in town once. So many Dragon of Dojima skills are tied to interacting with Majima and increasing the rank of the relationship. Especially since Majima explicitly says he is doing this to help Kiryu get back to his old self.Įven if it would feel tiresome to see Majima everywhere, Yakuza Kiwami is really good about doling out rewards for fighting him. There’s this sense of earnest enthusiasm and genuine joy from these moments. Seeing him in the strip club is just as hilarious as having him pop out of a garbage can or show up behind Kiryu when he’s about to play darts. (Though, in later chapters, some of his A through SS rank matches get hard.) It doesn’t matter if it is standard Majima, Breaker Majima, Everybody’s Idol Majima, Officer Majima, Slugger Majima, Thug Majima, or even Zombie Majima. You would think seeing Majima like every hour in Yakuza Kiwami would get frustrating, but it isn’t. Everywhere.Īnd trust me when I say it each altercation is lovable and memorable.
Walking on the street and pass a suspicious, shaking, giant traffic cone? It’s Majima! Heading to race some Pocket Circuit cars or play some darts? Majima will make that yet another battlefield.
When attending the funeral, Majima is one of the many fighting Kiryu. When Kiryu gets back on the street after being in jail for 10 years, Majima is there as his first welcome-back-to-Kamurocho fight. When he says he is going to be watching Kiryu 24/7, he absolutely means it. It works hard to show the good-natured rivalry between the two characters and give people opportunities to constantly improve Kiryu and enjoy all sorts of Majima-inspired silliness.įirst, you have to really understand and appreciate just how pervasive Majima Everywhere is. but Yakuza Kiwami rewrites history with a Majima Everywhere feature. He has minor moments in most of the main Yakuza games, Yakuza: Dead Souls and Yakuza 0 aside. Even though Kazuma Kiryu is Yakuza’s constant star, this foil always shows up to get his own time in the spotlight.
