After three months away, we're finally back in the booth recording some new Yakuza content! Before we get back to Kiryu's story, we HAD to sit down and share our first impressions of Yakuza: Like a Dragon. This is a brand new Yakuza game with a brand new protagonist, map, and did we mention it's a JRPG now? We're breaking down everything you'd like to know about Yakuza: Like a Dragon and how we feel about it.

This is a spoiler-free discussion but we chat about some of the characters and side content/mini-games so unless you want to go into the game completely blind, you're safe from spoilers!

Has it been ten years already? This week we're covering Chapter 2 of Yakuza: Ten Years Gone! Kiryu is out on parole after a decade in the slammer and things are very different. What if Nishiki changed his hairstyle? Wow! And there's a BIG building now? Neat! This week, we're talking about Nishiki's haters, Majima (and how he's everywhere), and how Kiryu probably hasn't heard about 9/11 yet. Rest in peace, Tamura-san of SPA! Magazine. You will be missed.

What the fuck is up, listeners? Yazuka 0 is fucking over, so it's time to start our motherfuckin' Yakuza/Yakuza Kiwami playthrough, bitches!

This week, we're talking about Mr. Libido's son, Kiryu's tattoo reminders, and how Darryl Kurrlyo is doing his best. CIRCUS MUSIC INTENSIFIES

One game down, many more to go! We're playing the exciting and emotional finale of Yakuza 0: Black and White and folks? It's very good! This week, we're talking about Majima going full Psycho-Mantis, Dojima's Double Boss Fight Room, and being thrown up the stairs. On the side, Kiryu defeats the world's shittiest landlord and inadvertently invents a new style of fighting AND penal labor. See you next week in Yakuza Kiwami, Kiryu-chan!

It's the final stretch! It's the beginning of our last Majima section before the finale, with Chapter 15: Scattered Lights. Majima is a bit down in the dumps today, but that doesn't mean he's going to skip breakfast! This week we're talking about Top 10 Anime Betrayals, Yakuza Mushroom Kingdom AUs, and Kiryu's dubious cooking. On the side...wait what? I'm getting a text that says that the boys have already done the best substories, so it's all Cabaret Club and Real Estate now. Waaaa~!
