Kuze's the reason I like the Yakuza Franchise. Any franchise that create such a compelling antagonist has my respect.

Bae: Enemies become friends, friends become enemies and KUZE WILL NOT LEAVE ME ALONE!

people keep saying "How many times we have to teach u this lesson old man?!" but never really grip on how much more impactful and valauble Kuze "Lesson" is to Kiryu about being a Yakuza


We love Kuze
Kuze is the Goat

Bae went through five stages with Kuze. In the end she started to accept him.

First time: "Why is he naked?"
Third time: "Why is he NOT naked? This isn't right." 😂

I was in each Bae Stream typing KUZEEE

Fun fact, the stupid "Not giving up, always getting back to your feet" mantra Kuze repeats and lives by along with his theme, were the two things that got me through physical therapy after a brain aneyrism when i had to relearn to walk.

That gasp when Kuze said "I guess these things have a way of working out." embodies the despair and desperation for Tachibana and sheer anger that every player felt towards Kuze and his men at that moment.

God damnit, just the music in Kuze's fights make them unforgettable. Pledge of Demon is up there with the only thing they fear is you in just epic metal "boss" soundtracks.

RIP in peace, touchy banana.

Yakuza 0 is such a good origin story for Kiryu and Majima, it's insane.

Honestly kuze is a yakuza from a different time if he's like this when kyu was baby mode imagine him in his PRIME

The "Kiryu doesn't kill" is actually a mistranslation, what is actually meant is that Kiryu doesn't kill in cold blood.
He never sets out to kill someone, or decides to do so on a whim. It's always only in self-defense.

Bae's reactions are so good. She's shocked at the shocking parts, she legit cries at the sad parts (end of Makoto's story is gonna tear her apart...), gets hyped up when the characters get a head full of steam...

I hope she gets through the whole series while she's still in Hololive, y'know? That's the fear with corporate vtubers and long game series, right? You want to see them finish but you know it's not a short drive to that end goal. If she doesn't finish before her time as Hakos Baelz ends, I'd follow her in whatever incarnation she goes for after so long as I'd get to see her react to the rest of the series. She better bring a whole box of tissues for the ending of 6, too. The direction of that final cutscene is so good...

Gotta love the additions of the Korone squad when Bae was chanting yubi.

Kuze: "You did it Kiryu, You're not the number one yakuza, you're more. You are truly the Yakuza 0"

Bae was so underleveled for final fight and went for chugging meta

Awano is a Genshin Impact player who desires money and women
Kuze is a boxer who wants to fight a lot
Shibusawa is obsessed with power and Nishitani is the Joker

"How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man?" the video game.

“Arms of steel”

wait till she sees kiryu tanking 3 hits from a metal pipe on the head in y6
